Chapter 1461

The battle raged on with a ferocity that turned the sky to dusk and the earth to mud.Blood, corpses, severed limbs, and agonized cries filled the air, suffocating Mount Whitemist in their wake.Death came with the daylight, and the mountain was bathed in a thin, warm golden hue.Rafael rode in, shouting for them to surrender and hand over Victor.Victor shouted equally loudly, retorting that the people of Starhaven were treacherous. Once they laid down their weapons, only death awaited them. But if they fought on, there was still a slim chance of survival.Yet, how could they hope to fight? The Starhaven forces were armed to the teeth, with six-barreled matchlocks capable of picking them off from afar.It was a battle they could never win.One by one, Victor's men fell, lifeless in the blood-soaked earth.Victor raised his sword, his eyes filled with a mix of emotions: failure, death, despair.Once, he had stood tall on the Southern Frontier—a hero among his people, his family

Chapter 1462

Jeremiah's words lingered on his lips, but in the end, he held them back. However, that brief moment of hesitation didn't escape Salvador's notice.Salvador smiled and said, "The Hell Monarch has already accomplished the great feat of reclaiming the Southern Frontier and driving the Sandorian forces out of Starhaven. It's time for those beneath him to rise as well. I believe Rafael would be willing to give them that opportunity. As a leader, one must know how to recognize and use talent.""Your words are wise, Your Majesty," Jeremiah responded.After considering it carefully, Jeremiah knew the Hell Monarch's return to the capital would be for the best. While he could secure more benefits and reparations from Sandoria through negotiations, Salvador's health was always in question. The capital needed the Hell Monarch to maintain order and stability.Once Jeremiah had left, Salvador fell into silence for a long moment before turning to Derek. "I also wish for their reunion soon. It'

Salvador raised his eyes to look at Rafael. The handsome young man before him now seemed weathered by the harsh winds of the Southern Frontier.A weight pressed against Salvador's chest; a tight, uncomfortable feeling.He knew how difficult the battle had been—cold, hunger, and the emotional toll that wore down even the strongest spirit. Yet, they had endured and fought with great valor.But all the while, as they fought bravely at the front lines, Salvador's thoughts had wandered elsewhere—toward Carissa.Guilt surged in his heart, but with it came something else, something darker. It was something he couldn't suppress, no matter how hard he tried. It left him feeling uneasy, caught in a constant tug-of-war within himself, never quite able to make peace with his own contradictions.Salvador was clearly concerned for Rafael, yet the words that came out carried a hint of bitterness. "After this battle, I fear all the officials and generals in court will bow to you. The people are

As they arrived at the gates of Hell Monarch Estate, the crack of Flamepetals filled the air, and the household rushed out to greet Rafael. Everyone surrounded him in a joyous embrace as he made his way inside.Even Frederick and Holly from Northwatch Estate had come, and Ryan had been brought out from the palace to join the celebration.Rafael hoisted Ryan up into his arms and lifted him onto his shoulders, then strode into the main hall with a commanding presence. Ryan was absolutely delighted, his hands resting on Rafael's forehead as his smile stretched all the way to his ears. His eyes sparkled with admiration for his uncle.Once they reached the main hall, Rafael gently set Ryan down, asking about his studies. He learned that Ryan had been serving as Connor's study partner in the palace, earning praise from both Victoria and Trevor. Rafael gave an approving nod, lifting his thumb in praise of the boy's diligence.Ryan glanced shyly at Carissa, though his joy was plain in the

Once inside the inner chamber, the curtain fell, and Sebastian immediately grew more serious. "No intimacy," he said firmly. "No indulgence. Do you understand?"Rafael's ears turned a deep red. "It's… not that serious."Sebastian's expression remained stern, his tone unwavering. "It is necessary."Carissa's heart sank as she realized the situation might be even more dire than she had suspected.Sebastian continued, "There are many people outside, and not all can be trusted. That's why I didn't say much earlier. Your wounds haven't healed yet, and it seems you've been through an illness as well. The cold has seeped into your body, deeply damaging your internal organs. If not for your inner force, you might not have survived that fever. "However, using that inner force to push through has cost you dearly. You're severely weakened now, and your energy is nearly depleted. If you don't take proper care, you might lose your abilities altogether, and your life expectancy will be short

Once Rafael's injury had been tended to, Carissa personally saw Sebastian and Rowan out.In a low voice, Sebastian instructed, "Remember, he must not use his inner force for now, not even in a fight. The injury is to his core, and he used his inner force when he shouldn't have. He also rushed back here before the wound had fully healed. When I examined him, he was still trying to sustain his energy. That's a deadly mistake. Right now, his body is as fragile as an egg. If anyone wanted to kill him now, it would be far too easy. So, be vigilant, Carissa. This is a critical time, understand?"He paused before adding, "The fewer people who know about his condition, the better. The situation is already precarious. People can't always be trusted, especially in times like these."Carissa knew Sebastian was thoughtful and always had their best interests at heart. His advice was meant to help them, so there was no reason not to appreciate it. She immediately agreed and promised to follow thr

Rafael took Carissa's hand in his, his expression serious. "I never wanted a secondary wife or concubine. I have no intentions toward anyone but you. You must always trust me."Carissa gazed up at him, her eyes soft and trusting. "Of course I believe you. Otherwise, why would I have rejected it so firmly?"He pulled her gently into his embrace, both finding comfort in the trust they shared. It was their anchor, and in that moment, they were certain their bond would weather any storm."Has Sebastian examined His Majesty?" Rafael asked.Carissa shook her head softly in his arms. "No. His Majesty hasn't mentioned it, and no one has dared to suggest it. Even the queen dowager hasn't brought it up."Rafael sighed lightly. "He looks like he's aged ten years in the span of a few months. When I first saw him, I was truly startled."Carissa, who occasionally saw Salvador, didn't think he appeared a decade older at once. However, she did notice his significant weariness and his eyes were

The celebration feast scheduled for the following day was canceled. A messenger from the palace arrived, saying Salvador had caught a chill and was suffering from a severe cough.Though the feast was called off, the royal edict to reward the soldiers was quickly issued.Timothy was appointed commander of the Southern Frontier Army and promoted to the rank of second-rank general. Louis and other officers were elevated to third-rank and deputy third-rank military positions, remaining stationed at the Southern Frontier. Funds were allocated to establish residences in the region, allowing them to bring their families along.The families of fallen soldiers were to receive compensation, while the wounded would each be given ten silver coins.Everyone's contributions were clearly outlined, but Rafael's reward had not yet been finalized. For the time being, he was granted 1,000 gold coins, 50 rolls of silk and fine cloth, and his position as Chief Judge remained unchanged.The reward edic

Five days ago, Salvador had sent Derek to Arcane Sanctum to find Sebastian. When Derek arrived, he was told that Sebastian had already left the city, with no clear return date.When Derek reported back, Salvador understood immediately—it was because of the incident with their late father, who had executed a famous physician years ago. Sebastian had no desire to return to the palace and treat Salvador.Salvador had considered sending someone to retrieve Sebastian, reasoning that no place in the world was beyond the reach of the crown. Surely, he could find him. But he knew that if Sebastian didn't want to come, no amount of pressure would compel him to help. Even if he were brought back, it would be of little use.Naturally, Salvador knew there was one person who might persuade Sebastian—Carissa. But his illness had been kept secret for a reason—he didn't want the entire court to know just yet, especially not Rafael.Rafael had just returned with great military achievements and a

Chapter 1470

Carissa disliked the idea of involving her dad, especially since whatever Salvador had to say had nothing to do with him. It seemed unnecessary to invoke Hector's loyalty to the kingdom, as if to pressure her into answering the coming question. But, of course, whether she liked it or not, her feelings were irrelevant in Salvador's eyes.Her expression remained composed as she said softly, "You may ask what you wish, Your Majesty. I will listen."The sharp, biting pain that seemed to pierce his very bones caused Salvador to bypass the usual probing and go straight to the heart of the matter. "You are the one who knows Rafael best. Do you think that if I die, he—should he become Regent—would kill the future young king and take the throne for himself?"Carissa's heart sank, the fury rising in her chest like a firestorm. Rafael had survived the brutal battles of the Southern Frontier; he should not be subjected to such flagrant suspicion. Her protective instincts flared, and her ton
