Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 76

Rafael acted decisively, immediately ordering the troops to prepare. By midnight, the war drums began to beat, and the attack horns sounded.

Today was only the first day of the siege, and the Westhaven-Sandoria coalition inside llyrian would never expect a second assault in the early morning hours. The crossbow machines were activated, and archers took their positions. Though bonfires lighted the city walls, Starhaven's attacking forces remained hidden.

It was like they were out in the open under the light, while the Hell Monarch's army pushed forward from the shadows.

Carissa and her team moved swiftly toward the city gate on horseback. As they neared the city, they used their momentum to leap into the air, charging up to the city towers. Carissa's Rose Spear pierced through the soldiers controlling the crossbow machines, and then she shattered the machines with a single blow. The archers aimed at her, but Rafael quickly soared up, his golden armor gleaming in the firelight.

Someone shouted, "It's the Hell Monarch! Kill him! Kill him!"

All the archers turned their bows toward Rafael, unleashing a storm of arrows. Rafael spun his golden blade, deflecting wave after wave of arrows.

A group of soldiers rushed in, attacking Rafael with their swords.

Seeing this, Carissa and her team quickly destroyed the crossbow machines. The five of them then jumped down, and opened the city gates.

Two people opened the gates, while the other three provided cover. Amidst the chaos of swords and spears, the gates were finally opened. The swift and unexpected attack left the coalition forces unable to react in time.
