Her Graceful War Song Chapter 361
As Rafael packed the gifts, his mind wandered to the matters concerning the Pathfinders Guild.He was naturally pleased that so many people were looking out for Carissa. Still, he also wanted Adrian and the others to know that he would protect Carissa from now on, and they no longer needed to worry.Most importantly, he had to tell Adrian one crucial thing today—from now on, he would ensure that Carissa sent at least two letters back to the guild each month. No matter what happened, whether it was something good or bad, the guild members would be informed, so they wouldn't have to trouble themselves by sending people down to investigate.After filling three carts to the brim with gifts, he saw Carissa leading Ryan and Lulu out.Carissa's face was serene and composed, her calm demeanor only enhancing her beauty. She was dressed in a deep purple dress that accentuated her fair, translucent skin. Two peonies were pinned in her hair, but even the flowers seemed less radiant than she wa

"Huh?" Rafael was momentarily stunned, then his face lit up with joy. "Are you worried about me getting punished by my master? You're worried about me?""Of course, I'm worried about you. Haven't you ever felt the sting of Sage Everett's iron fists?" Carissa asked with a raised eyebrow."Not really," Rafael replied, thinking back to his days at the guild. Strictly speaking, he wasn't there for even a full month each year. It wasn't that he never got beaten, but that was a matter of pride. Even if he had been, he would never admit it."Were you always that well-behaved?" Carissa asked curiously. Even Kyle had been punished at the Pathfinders Guild. Was Rafael really more obedient than him?Rafael tilted his head, thinking for a moment. "Mainly, when I was at the Pathfinders Guild, none of you ever came to find me. So, I had nothing to do but train hard. My master was very pleased with me."Carissa couldn't help but look at him with admiration. All of them, as junior apprentices
Her Graceful War Song Chapter 363
Rafael and Carissa paid their respects to Adrian, Everett, and the various senior apprentices of the guild in accordance with etiquette.Everett's eyes were half-squinted and half-open, making it difficult to tell whether he was merely squinting or actually looking. But Carissa knew that this was when the man was the most intimidating, as he was scrutinizing for any mistakes.Thus, Carissa performed her traditional salute with the utmost seriousness. Her posture was straight, and her spine was upright as she bowed at the perfect angle.Everett had trained Carissa on the proper way to perform a salute after she had initially been too hasty in paying respects to Adrian. That night, her head had become so dizzy from the repeated salutes she performed that she almost passed out. It was only at that point that Everett slightly opened his eyes and gestured for her to leave. She had been so dizzy she could barely walk, and Winona had to carry her back to her room.Reflecting on those pa

Upon hearing Carissa's obedient response, Adrian extended his hand and beckoned her over."Come here."Carissa obediently walked over, and Adrian reached out to flick the tip of her nose."Ouch!" Carissa exclaimed. "Sage Adrian, that hurt.""Punishment!" Adrian said sternly. "This is a mild punishment for not speaking up when needed."A flicker of pain crossed Carissa's eyes, but she quickly masked it. "Understood. It won't happen again."Adrian noticed her fleeting expression of distress, and sighed inwardly. The hardships that his youngest apprentice had endured were too painful. He couldn't start thinking about them, or it would be too taxing on his heart.He took her hand, guiding her to sit beside him. "Rafael's character and virtue far surpass Barrett's. I believe he won't let you down or treat you poorly. But remember, the world is ever-changing, and so are people. In the past, he might have cherished you more because he couldn't have you. Now that he's married you, the

Winona wiped away her tears. "I won't leave. I'll stay in the capital with you. I'll stay in Northwatch Estate. Whenever you miss me, just come back to visit.""We'll stay too!" Hearing Winona's words, everyone echoed the sentiment.Carissa hid in Winona's embrace, feeling a sense of security she hadn't experienced in a long time. She wanted to cry. She was reluctant to see them go.However, Adrian spoke up with a stern expression, "Can you stay with her forever? Everyone has their own life to live. Besides, the capital is no easy place to live. Even if it were, it's not somewhere people from the Pathfinders Guild can reside for long."Adrian had no fondness for the capital or the royal family, but Rafael's character was impeccable. He had recovered the Southern Frontier and restored the kingdom's territory, so Adrian reluctantly accepted him. However, whether people's hearts would change remained to be seen.Rafael initially had wanted to become his apprentice, but Adrian w

Carissa's eyes reddened slightly. Was Adrian intending to take Ryan back to Meadow Ridge?Adrian looked at Ryan with a meaningful expression. "Why do you want to improve your martial skills?""To protect my aunt," Ryan replied loudly. Then, he paused, feeling that this ambition was too small. "Like my grandfather and my father, to go to the battlefield, protect my home, defend my country, and safeguard the territory."Adrian smiled. "Good. You're young, but have such grand ambitions. However, being a hero means enduring hardships and exhaustion. Can you handle that?""I can!" Ryan said, puffing out his chest.Although he didn't understand why Adrian asked this, answering loudly could never be wrong. Besides, he had endured all kinds of hardship before."What if you were told to part from your aunt? Could you handle that too?" Adrian asked."I can… Ah!" Ryan immediately took two steps back, and shook his head instinctively. "No, I can't leave my aunt."Carissa felt reluctant

In the carriage, Rafael relayed Winona's words to Carissa.Carissa rested her head on his shoulder. Despite holding back her tears for a long time, they eventually began to fall.Rafael held her close, resting his chin on her forehead. "Winona truly regards you as her own sister.""Yes," Carissa said, her voice muffled. "When I went to the Pathfinders Guild, Winona took care of me a lot. She dotes on me quite intensely."Rafael wondered—who didn't dote on Carissa at the Pathfinders Guild? Even Everett, when speaking to him in the side hall, had reminded him to take good care of Carissa and had fondly referred to her as a mischievous little monkey.Everett had shown a hint of sorrow when talking about Rafael's in-laws, his eyes filled with melancholy and regret.Everyone was moved by the sacrifices made by the men of the Duke of Northwatch's family for their kingdom.Wiping away her tears, Carissa asked, "Rod is going to stay in the capital. Do you have any arrangements for him?
Her Graceful War Song Chapter 368
Carissa first sought out Luke to get a general understanding of the situation and the current status of The Gilded Tower. Luke assured her that there was no need to worry. They had Eric in their custody and had sent some people to monitor The Gilded Tower, ensuring that no one could slip out to send a warning.Feeling reassured, Carissa headed towards the accounting room.Helen had not yet finished reviewing the accounts, but the entire room was filled with people kneeling in fear and anxiety. The place was in disarray—anything that could be thrown from the desk was thrown, except for the account books. Several cups had also been smashed.Helen's hair was a mess, and her face was pale with anger. Upon seeing Carissa, her feelings of grievance and humiliation reached its peak, and she burst into tears. "How could they do this to me?!"Carissa entered the room, and addressed everyone, "Please rise. Everyone except for the accounting staff, leave the room. Gillian, you too."Ther
