Chapter 286

Author: Summer's Blaze
Carissa kicked the back of Aurora's knee, making her collapse to the ground.

"Do you know how they died? Each of them was stabbed eighteen times. Why eighteen? Think carefully!"

"No!"

Aurora's face turned ashen. She swallowed hard, her eyes darting around as memories resurfaced. She recalled the Westhaven junior general they had captured, who had turned out to be royalty.

He had been stabbed eighteen times, and they had even cut off his…

"It's impossible. The crimes were committed by Westhaven people. Your family was killed by Westhaven spies. It has nothing to do with me. Not in the slightest!"

Aurora tried to rise and flee, but Carissa firmly held her shoulders, keeping her immobilized on her knees.

"Because of what you did at Victory Pass, my entire family was wiped out. They didn't even spare my youngest nephew. He was frail from birth and constantly on medication. Eighteen stab wounds… His entire body was hacked to pieces, and there was blood everywhere. The whole Northwatc

  • Her Graceful War Song   Chapter 1659

    Carissa saw that the others had already escaped. After waiting for the fire to burn a little longer, she flew towards the supply depot with her Lightfoot Skill.Though most people were busy fighting the fire, the supply depot was of the utmost importance. Around a dozen guards stood watch there. When they saw Carissa, who was dressed like a mountain villager, they moved forward to question her.Quickly, Carissa raised the oil barrel high and shouted loudly in Westic, "Fire! We need to help put it out!"As she shouted, she hurried toward the fire on the east side and pretended to join the effort to extinguish it. At the same time, nearby villagers soon arrived to help fight the flames. Running ahead of them, Carissa didn't seem out of place.The scene was chaotic. Some smothered the flames with thick cloth, others carried buckets of water, while some shoveled sand. Everyone tried every method they could. But the fire fed on the wood, growing too fierce. They had to stop it from spre

    Aurora didn't dare reply to Carissa's words.Instead, she swallowed her pride and quietly said, "Barrett, I'll go with you."Barrett cast a cool glance at Carissa and said, "Let's follow orders. Earning merit or not isn't the point. The important thing is to finish the task and get back alive."He didn't truly believe Carissa was going into the supply depot alone. After all, once the wood nearby was set aflame, the supply depot would become the most dangerous place of all. If she were to light the fire inside, how could she escape the roaring flames?Most likely, while they set fires outside, someone already hidden inside the supply depot would start the blaze, while Carissa would simply go through the motions.At first, Barrett felt a bitter sense of injustice. Such was the way of official life. Great families passed down their rank and influence through generations. With the support of the family's older generation, one could rise quickly, gain honor, and preserve the family's l

    Aurora was very angry at Cynthia's words, but she knew her own skills were indeed not as good as the others'. To argue would only make her look foolish. Since they didn't need her to keep watch, she could bear a little insult without complaint.Travis and Bun had originally planned to take turns keeping watch between just the two of them. But Carissa thought everyone was tired, and with five people sharing watch duty, they could all rest a bit more.Carissa was the first to stand guard. She sat by the door, leaning against the wall with whip in hand. The broken door could not be locked, so it was left slightly ajar. Outside, the night was pitch black and deathly silent.Dust covered the floor of the old house, which had not been lived in for some time. Still, they were prepared for hardship, so even Violet didn't complain. She simply lay down on the floor and fell asleep.Though tired, Carissa was not sleepy. Her mind was sharp, and she stayed very alert.She knew Arthur was somew

    While Barrett and Aurora were walking behind the group, he quietly said, "Perhaps you were right that General Dominic truly wants to support Carissa.""How so?" Aurora's eyes brightened. "Have you found someone secretly escorting us?"Barret continued in a low tone, "The supply depot is in Fawnrun City. Normally, we'd have met sentries on patrol along the way, but we haven't seen a single one. We took small mountain paths and passed many villages. How could any of them know the way? I watched closely and found marks left on the trail. That means someone went ahead to scout. They might even be hiding near the supply depot now."Aurora had already doubted Dominic would let his granddaughter risk so much without a plan. Hearing Barrett's words only confirmed her suspicions. She felt a bit disdainful, but also relieved she had come. If she had stayed behind, she would have missed the chance to win glory."You were wise to insist on coming," Aurora said with a note of approval.Barrett

    In the end, Bun and Travis carried Barrett, while Cynthia and Violet carried Aurora. The seven of them hurried through the night. When they came upon thick brambles and thorns that blocked their path, they used sickles to clear the way, not wanting to waste too much inner force.The hours passed in a blur of darkness and exhaustion. Aurora and Barrett had lost all pride. They wished they had wings to fly, instead of being dragged along like this. They had truly lost all sense of dignity.And the thing they thought was impossible? By morning, they found themselves at the foot of the mountain outside Fawnrun City.And they had not even come down the easiest mountain. Instead, they had descended from the mountain where the city's resin trees grew, which meant they had crossed one extra mountain.Carissa was not unkind. After reaching the base of the mountain, she let them sit boldly by the roadside to eat their dry rations.Though their clothes were changed to look like the mountain

    As they left Stormwatch Keep, Carissa could hear the voices of the two people arguing ahead."I don't understand what you're trying to prove. Do you truly believe this will succeed? You trust Carissa in everything she says, but ignore me entirely. Why must you be so stubborn? Don't forget, your family once produced great generals. If they could see you now, groveling before a woman like this, I doubt they would rest in peace," said Aurora in an irritated tone, clearly angry.Barrett's patience was also wearing thin. "Why must you always speak so harshly? I don't trust her blindly. However, the truth is that our forces are no match for Westhaven's. After two days of fighting, we're barely holding on, and many of our comrades have fallen. If we pull away any of our best men tomorrow, it will only get worse. Her plan to ambush them is the best chance we have—"Aurora cut him off angrily: "Best chance? Have you thought at all about what will happen if it fails? You'll lose your life in
