Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1468 The celebration feast scheduled for the following day was canceled. A messenger from the palace arrived, saying Salvador had caught a chill and was suffering from a severe cough.

Though the feast was called off, the royal edict to reward the soldiers was quickly issued.

Timothy was appointed commander of the Southern Frontier Army and promoted to the rank of second- rank general. Louis and other officers were elevated to third-rank and deputy third-rank military positions, remaining stationed at the Southern Frontier. Funds were allocated to establish residences in the region, allowing them to bring their families along.

The families of fallen soldiers were to receive compensation, while the wounded would each be given ten silver coins.

Everyone's contributions were clearly outlined, but Rafael's reward had not yet been finalized. For the time being, he was granted 1,000 gold coins, 50 rolls of silk and fine cloth, and his position as Chief Judge remained unchanged.

The reward edict praised Rafael, the Hell Monarch, for his tireless efforts and the great achievements he had made for Starhaven. The words were grand and flowery, but ultimately empty. In the end, 1,000 gold coins felt far more practical.

Rafael did not seek praise, however. He was a prince, raised on the support of the court and the people, and he saw it as his duty to serve.

Salvador's "chill" kept him absent from court for two consecutive mornings. Even when Rafael went to the palace to request an audience, he was not summoned.
