Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1379

-

Under Hans' command, the private soldiers didn't retreat. Instead, they fought increasingly harder. They weren't Yuvan's soldiers. Over 10,000 of them had been carefully selected by Nicholas over the years, trained through countless battles.

Many of them carried tragic pasts, lives marked by pain and loss. They harbored deep resentment against the world and saw this war as their chance to turn the tide of their fate. As long as someone was leading them, they would not easily surrender.

The Mystic Army would win, but it would not be quick, nor would it be without heavy losses.

Carissa knew that if they didn't surrender, the bodies would pile up-more lives would be lost with each passing moment. So she chose a team of elite soldiers, including the Meadow Ridge squad, with the mission to take Hans' head.

Without a commander, the enemy's forces would be much easier to defeat.

Carissa devised a plan-Bun and Travis would first break through their formation and clear a path. Then, she and Violet would advance swiftly, take the enemy commander's head, and retreat just as quickly. Taking the enemy general's head amidst thousands of soldiers was no easy task, especially since the enemy was fighting with bloodlust. A slight hesitation could lead to being overwhelmed by a barrage of strikes.

Hans was a battle-hardened veteran, and he quickly saw through Carissa's plan. He deliberately exposed a weakness to lure her and Violet in. What he sought was the same as what Carissa wanted to capture the leader to defeat the army.

Carissa wanted to take him out, and he wanted to do the same to her.
