Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 44

Under the cover of the night, Carissa successfully broke into the Ministry of Defense's records room. It didn't take much effort to find what she needed-all the reports from the battle at Victory Pass were neatly arranged on the top left shelf.

Using a special lamp called Night Pearl, covered with a light vell to dim its glow, Carissa hid in a corner to read the reports individually. After reading them all, she felt a chill run through her entire body as tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks.

Barrett and Aurora had gone to Victory Pass as reinforcements and had participated in the battles. despite their inexperience. During their first battle there, Carissa's third uncle lost an arm while trying to save Barrett.

Meanwhile, her seventh uncle had died before the reinforcements even arrived. Carissa remembered him as a spirited young man; it was hard to imagine that he had fallen in battle.

Dominic had also been wounded by an arrow before the reinforcements arrived, leaving Barrett essentially in command for the final battles.

It was indeed Barrett and Aurora who had made the final desperate effort. They breached Fawnron City in Westhaven, where Barrett was in charge of burning the military supplies and provisions, while Aurora led the capture of several young Westhaven commanders and soldiers.

It was these captured commanders who had declared Westhaven's surrender, with the peace treaty being signed at Fawnrun City. After that, Aurora led the troops back to Victory Pass and released the captured commanders.

The reports made no mention of the massacres and killings that Aurora had allegedly carried out. Dominic had either concealed them or genuinely had no knowledge of them. But as commander, regardless of whether or not he knew, he would surely be held accountable once Aurora's actions were discovered.

Carissa returned the reports to their original places and used her Lightfoot Skill to leave the Ministry of Defense unnoticed.
