Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 896

The Deputy Minister of Justice, Cyrus Zellner, personally led a team to Valor Estate. To prevent Aurora from escaping, they first surrounded the estate.

Viola was terrified when she heard the news. She hid in Grace Mansion, too afraid to step outside. It wasn't until she learned they were there to capture Aurora that she finally dared to leave her hiding place.

As soon as the commotion started, Aurora had an inkling of what was happening.

Standing at the entrance of Blessed Haven, she gripped her sword. As the chill wind cut across her already scarred face, an eerie, deathly stillness surrounded her.

She watched the officers from the Ministry of Justice storm into Blessed Haven, then twirled her sword in a swift flourish, aiming it directly at the leading officer.

"Aurora Yates, surrender yourself at once!" Cyrus shouted from outside the gates of Blessed Haven.

"Where's Barrett?" she asked coldly.
