Once the maid left, Carissa began, "Prince Rafael went to Simonton City to negotiate with Sandoria's representatives over an informant named Septimus. Septimus is an informant who escaped after being captured by our enemy. During the Southern Frontier conflict, he continuously sent us intelligence. However, he was recently caught, and the Sandoria people are trying to exchange him for Simonton City."

As Carissa spoke, everyone's breathing grew rapid, waiting for her to continue.

"So, the king dispatched Prince Rafael to Simonton City. On the surface, it was for negotiations. In actuality, Prince Rafael would secretly attempt a rescue operation. Septimus has been rescued, and he's now in Simonton City. It has been confirmed that Septimus is actually Lawrence Ziegler, the Marquis of Elderglen's second son.

"However, his injuries are severe. Prince Rafael's message via carrier pigeon requests that Sebastian and Lady Kayla be brought along. We must leave tonight. There is no time to waste." "Oh, my God! Oh, heavens!"

Agnes trembled all over. The news that her son was not dead, but was gravely injured instead, was almost too much for her to bear. "I-I'll go too!"

Julian held his mother, and supported her in standing up. "Mom, you shouldn't go. I'll go in your place. I'll accompany my sister-in-law."

His voice was already choked with emotion.

"I will also go," Edwin said, his voice slightly trembling. He smiled, but his eyes were filled with tears. "Our son is brave and remarkable. We will go and bring him home. We must." Edwin was known to be a stoic man. He was a marquis and a dignified second-rank official. Back then, he had managed to hold back tears upon hearing the news of his son's sacrifice.

But now, he couldn't contain his tears after hearing that his son was alive. He couldn't, not even with the Hell Monarch's princess consort present and standing before him.
