Davis also thought of a problem—he couldn't openly announce it yet, because the six-barrel matchlock hadn't been tested enough. Although Rafael said it had been tested, one test wasn't enough to confirm its reliability. Multiple tests were needed to ensure the risk of the barrel exploding was low before it could be used in the military.Davis stood there, almost as though in a dream. He carefully examined the matchlock, feeling it over and over again. "No need for a matchstick to light it... The convenience is incredible. With this, we can establish an elite shooting unit and even an ambush unit. With such a godly weapon in hand, what can we possibly fear?"He held the matchlock and hugged it, laughing and crying all at once."To put it bluntly, the one at home would be considered a concubine next to this! Why not take a concubine? Do you think I'm afraid of the one at home? No, I always have a special place in my heart reserved for my true first wife—this six-barrel matchlock!"

In his excitement, Salvador momentarily forgot the consequences.Adrian's ancestors had once been given a royal title, but the hereditary line had long since ended. Granting such a title again, especially without a major accomplishment to back it, would surely raise suspicion.At present, the six-barrel matchlock had yet to be mass-produced and an elite shooting unit was still not established. It was far too early to grant a royal title, and doing so now would only draw the eyes of the entire kingdom to Meadow Ridge."Yes, you're right. We'll hold off on it for now. There's no rush," Salvador said, his eyes gleaming.It was the brightest light Rafael had seen in his eyes since he had ascended the throne.Salvador was eager to see the full power of the six-barrel matchlock for himself. He ordered the Nightsteel Guard to seal off the Cold Palace, forbidding anyone from entering.The Cold Palace was vast and uninhabited since Sigmund's reign. Out of kindness, the women who had lived

Chapter 1123

These past few days, the talk on the streets and in alleys was all about Yuvan and his family. No one mentioned a word about Violet.Violet's apprentices were no pushovers. Not only did no one dare to criticize her, but when someone even lightly mentioned the connection between Violet and Molly, they quickly found someone to lash out at those people.Sisters in unity? Violet and Molly were cousins with different parents. Molly had married out and become part of her husband's family. What connection did she have with the Spencer family or Violet?As for the incident at the western mountain pass, Thomas had sent someone to investigate. It was confirmed that witnesses had seen a group of men abducting a young woman who appeared to be disoriented. Some common folk had even tried to help, brandishing hoes. However, none of them could make out the woman's face, as it had grown dark and she had been struggling. Her hair had been a mess, obscuring her features.Thomas was relieved when he

Seeing that Yuvan was unable to leave the capital, Wayne deliberated for several days before saying, "Your Highness, you need time to recover and cannot return to Valken. However, it is concerning that Prince Harvey has been managing affairs there for so long. I fear he may take advantage of the situation and claim your position for himself. I must return to Valken to handle matters."Yuvan stared at Wayne, stunned, and then his face shifted into anger. "So, you're abandoning me here and going back to Valken? How do you expect me to handle this mess on my own?"Wayne was prepared for Yuvan's outburst. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Your Highness, the situation is already a mess. While you're recovering, the public will soon forget about it. It's best if you stay here in the capital for now. I'll go back to discuss the next steps with Prince Harvey. Half of our suicide soldiers are now under his control. We need to reorganize and strategize. And besides, can you really trust

Barrett sat motionless for a long time. Randall had thought he might cry, but not a single tear appeared in his eyes. He just sat there blankly, lost in thought.Unsure of what was on Barrett's mind, Randall handed him a bottle of wine. Barrett drank it all in one go and passed out drunk. Randall didn't bother sending him back home, letting him stay in the guest courtyard for the night instead.By the next morning, the steward reported that Barrett had left before dawn.He came by a few more times after that. The two didn't talk much—they were simply drinking companions.Randall heard that Barrett's wife had returned to her family, intending to divorce him.One drunken night, Barrett let slip that he knew one of his wife's secrets. It was like a thorn lodged deep in his heart—something he couldn't quite remove, yet he also didn't feel the need to. He could live with it.However, she no longer wanted to look back.When Randall asked what the secret was, Barrett didn't answer. He

Carissa was a bit surprised. "I remember your son is quite good with his studies. Why would he want to study martial arts with me? Madam Zoey, I don't know how to be a good mentor, especially for someone who is meant to inherit a title. Surely his best path is to continue his studies and become an official?"Carissa didn't want to take on an apprentice. She already had a public position, and she couldn't devote the time necessary for proper teaching. And Cedric was still young—just a boy in his teens. Besides martial arts, she would need to teach him how to conduct himself and guide him toward the right outlook on life.It wasn't like Violet, where her apprentices were all older than her, each with their own responsibilities."Inheriting a title?" Zoey gave a wry smile, her eyes full of helplessness. "Your Grace, whether this title can even be kept is still uncertain. And even if it is... I fear it will be more of a troublesome burden."She sighed. "I'm not asking you to take him

The next day, when Zoey arrived with her son, Cedric Prince, in tow, she mentioned the annual salary she intended to offer Travis—three hundred silver coins.Travis was fond of money, but even he knew he wasn't worth that much. He immediately tried to refuse."No, that's far too much. Sixty silver coins a year is already more than enough. Three hundred is too generous, and I wouldn't feel right accepting it."No matter how Zoey insisted, he refused to take three hundred silver coins and stood firm on his demand for just sixty silver coins a year.Zoey turned to Carissa, silently pleading for help in convincing him.Carissa smiled warmly. "Sixty silver coins it is, then. Listen to Mr. Mullen. Whether it's sixty or three hundred, the teaching will be the same. This way, he won't have such a heavy burden on his conscience."Since Carissa had said so, Zoey could only express her deep gratitude. Whether it was for schooling or learning skills, Zoey had no objections to spending money—

Rafael didn't care much about other people's marital issues. He had only overheard the matter, and he casually mentioned it now that the topic had come up.Cedric had been practicing for four full hours, not returning to Silverstone Estate until nearly late evening. For several days now, he hadn't complained about being tired or found his training dull. Sometimes, he would even recite his lessons while holding the horse stance.Carissa often watched him in disbelief, finding it hard to imagine that he was Oliver's son. Then again, remembering that he was Zoey's son, it seemed only natural.At that moment, Jacob hurried over and announced, "Your Highness, the intelligence report is back. It hasn't been successful yet."Rafael wasn't surprised and merely asked, "Was there someone secretly escorting them?""Yes, there were experts sent along the route. Three battles took place, but we didn't gain much."Rafael's brow furrowed. "Were they suicide soldiers?""Based on their fighting

Violet had been leaving early and returning late lately. Even before the sun was up, there would be no sign of her. Yet, without fail, she would return to Skye Embroidery for an hour or so. The workshop had gained a new addition recently—Eliza Carter, a woman cast out of her home. Her brother had offered to take her back in, but her sister-in-law disagreed. Not wanting to cause trouble for her brother, Eliza had instead chosen to come to the workshop.The two of them worked on embroidery and shared quiet conversations, never speaking of the past, only of the future. Violet quite enjoyed this peaceful atmosphere. On her occasional visits, she found herself chatting with Leona while Alana and Leah were also around. Their relationships seemed to grow closer with each passing day.Zoey also came by and happened to run into Violet that day, so they chatted casually for a while.Violet knew that Cedric was training under Travis, and said frankly, "He's diligent, but he lacks some natura

By chance, Carissa was aware of Viola's predicament.Of all the unfortunate timing, she happened to be there.Today, Carissa had been quietly monitoring the Garrison Unit's patrols. Recently, there had been assessments for several tasks, and patrolling was one of them. Though the previous misconduct had been rectified, many merchants, seeing the patrols, still tried to flatter them by offering goods, much like before.There had once been people assigned to watch over this, and though goods were confiscated, the effort had become lax. The patrols had grown more negligent, often stopping at coffeehouses to relax, a far cry from the discipline they were meant to uphold.Carissa had hoped to catch a group of them in the act, to set an example and deter others. Unexpectedly, she stumbled upon this situation instead.She had just been passing by Arcane Sanctum and had stopped in to ask for a cup of water. From behind the faint blue curtain in the back hall, she had witnessed the entire
