Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1449

Chapter 1449

Salvador's health had improved slightly, enough for him to turn his attention to the reports on his desk. He trusted Jeremiah, but not entirely.

What Salvador feared most was that the army was neither in the Southern Frontier nor outside Simonton City, chasing the Sandorian forces. Instead, it might be that the Hell Monarch had turned his troops back toward the capital-and that these reports had been suppressed, never reaching him.

Given Rafael's speed, he could have swept through and taken every county along his path within three months.

That was why Salvador needed to review the reports from each district and county.

Carissa had returned to work at the Capital Guard headquarters, and now he summoned her to the royal study. The conversation was naturally no longer casual. He wanted to gauge whether she had any news about Rafael.

Carissa told him the truth, and she was also deeply concerned.

Salvador studied her face, sensing no deceit.

But no matter which scenario they faced, it was grim.

If they were ambushed, it would mean the Southern Frontier Army's crushing defeat, and the region would once again fall into the hands of the Sandorians.

He now began to question Rafael's earlier decision. It had seemed rash to pursue the enemy. Defending the city was the safer course.

Yet, as he considered it, remaining in the Southern Frontier wasn't viable either. The people there revered Rafael. The longer he stayed, the greater the threat he posed to the court.
