Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1124

Seeing that Yuvan was unable to leave the capital, Wayne deliberated for several days before saying, "Your Highness, you need time to recover and cannot return to Valken. However, it is concerning that Prince Harvey has been managing affairs there for so long. I fear he Yuvan stared at Wayne, stunned, and then his face shifted into anger. "So, you're abandoning me here and going back to Valken? How do you expect me to handle this mess on my own?"

may take advantage of the situation and claim your position for himself. I must return to Valken to handle matters."

Wayne was prepared for Yuvan's outburst. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Your Highness, the situation is already a mess. While you're recovering, the public will soon forget about it. It's best if you stay here in the capital for now. I'll go back to discuss the next steps with Prince Harvey. Half of our suicide soldiers are now under his control. We need to reorganize and strategize. And besides, can you really trust Prince Harvey to run Valken?"

Though Yuvan did not trust Harvey, he was reluctant to face the mess alone. His frustration remained evident.

Wayne pressed on, "Your Highness, the Spencer family has already expelled Lady Molly. You and the Spencer family are no longer allies. You can't rely on their warhorses, weapons, or financial support. We need to find another way. If we don't act now, we may lose our chance. We've got an army to maintain, and it takes money-money that Grand Princess Eleanor can no longer provide. I must return to find a solution."

Wayne spoke the harsh truth, but he was careful not to let it crush Yuvan's spirit completely. The reality was grim, but Wayne didn't want to demoralize him further.

Yuvan didn't immediately agree to Wayne's departure and instead asked him to stay a few more days. He wanted to see if Salvador would issue any further edicts.
