Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 1503

Wallace gave the order, and Barrett was tasked with the job of investigating. He led a group to search the area.

Barrett was aware that Carissa had arrived at Victory Pass. He had been there to greet the group. However, he had stayed at a distance, watching from afar without approaching. From that distance, he hadn't been able to make out any faces, only a vague silhouette that seemed to resemble hers.

He had thought his actions unnecessary. After all, what business did he have with her? The affairs of the capital were nothing for him to involve himself with.

While the diplomatic envoy rested in Victory Pass, they spent their time discussing strategies and rehearsing their approach. Everyone understood that while this negotiation might seem easier compared to the last, it was by no means a simple task.

Lisandra had long kept this matter at the forefront of her mind and would not easily yield to any compromises.

The Sullivan family also feared that someone might infiltrate the envoy and eavesdrop on their plans. If their strategies were known, Orivenia could counter them, putting Starhaven at a disadvantage.

Thus, Wallace had ordered Barrett to find out who those mysterious people were. At the same time, he had instructed Barrett to scrutinize everyone around the envoy, ensuring that no one had infiltrated their ranks.

After two days of investigation, Barrett had come up empty. No one had disguised themselves, and there was no sign of anyone sending messages out of Victory Pass.
