Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 122 Chapter 122 As Carissa watched the fire slowly dim, she added a few more logs. The flames quickly devoured the dry wood, sending up bright flickers of light. The scene before her brought back a painful memory- returning to Northwatch Estate and finding it filled with corpses and bloodstains.
The ache in her heart surged again, so intense that it made breathing difficult.
How she wished for Aurora's death! But simply killing her might not be the most satisfying revenge. Carissa thought Liam might share this view.
She was certain Liam wouldn't kill Aurora, Rafael had given orders to wait here, and it was likely because Liam had said something to him.

Waiting here was both Rafael and Liam's directive.
By late night, everyone was exhausted. They were sleepy and hungry, though the cold was no longer a concem with plenty of firewood available. Supplies had arrived from the rear-simple bread and beef jerky. But in the midst of a battlefield, any food that could fill their stomachs was welcomed.
Timothy had brought the supplies, and conveyed Rafael's orders to Carissa. "The marshal ordered you to continue waiting here. He says you can relax a bit and take turns sleeping." "Do we re really need this many people here?" Carissa asked.
"The marshal believes it's necessary. He said not to easily trust a certain someone's assurances," Timothy replied.
With this statement, Carissa was certain that Rafael and Liam had reached ssort of pate agreement. He seemed to know everything.
Timothy was somewhat puzzled, unsure why Rafael had ordered them to wait. However, military orders were absolute, and he followed them without question.
After delivering the supplies, Timothy returned to the city. Although the Southern Frontier had been recaptured, the battlefield still required cleanup, and the bodies of fallen soldiers needed to be buried. There was much work to be done in the aftermath.
Victory on the battlefield always brought joy, but it was accompanied by sadness and pain. The comrades who fought alongside them-perhaps the closest one-would never see the victory. Their eyes would forever be closed. Before dawn, Barrett returned with his men, who were utterly exhausted. Michael distributed the food to them. They sat down to eat, but Barrett didn't touch his food. He gazed at the rising sun, which indicated a clear day. It was the best weather they had seen since arriving in the Southern Frontier.

After a while, Barrett stood up and walked over to Carissa. He asked softly, “Are your injuries serious?" Resting her head on Violet's shoulder, Carissa didn't respond and showed no change in her expression. Violet shot him a look of utter disdain, and silently mouthed, "None of your business. Go away." Understanding her lip movements, Barrett was angry and embarrassed. Fuming, he turned and went back to sit down.
Violet rolled her eyes. What was that? Not just anyone could cover and concern themselves with Carissa. Carissa wasn't that cheap! They waited until the sun began to set, painting the sky with twilight hues.
At that point, Barrett could no longer sit still. Seeing Carissa standing up, he hurried over. I plan to head to the plains before it gets dark."
Carissa glanced at the setting sun, feeling a mix of warmth and chill which made her exceptionally uncomfortable.
"If you're going, you don't need to inform me. I command the Mystiq Army, and you're not part of it, she and said, then lifted her chin and gestured to his soldiers. "You're their general." COIN BUNDLE: get more free bonus Р
