Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 1086

Chapter 1086

The next day, both the Garrison Unit and the Capital Guard learned of the incident. It was said that an assassin had broken into Douglas‘ home, severely injuring him to the point where he was vomiting blood and nearly died.

The physician said that with injuries like his, he would likely end up as a bedridden, drooling mess for the rest of his life, unable to do anything except stay in bed to eat, drink, and take care of other basic needs.

Naturally, both the Garrison Unit and the Capital Guard did everything they could to track down the assassin. In the king’s domain, to commit such an audacious act against a government official was downright brazen.

After some investigation, Carissa uncovered a witness who revealed that a martial artist had come to the capital. Knowing that Douglas had once caused his sister’s death, the martial artist had snuck in and beaten him senseless in a fit of rage.

Further investigation revealed that the rumors surrounding Karen’s defilement were entirely false. She had remained pure, but Douglas believed the rumors and cast her out when he thought she had lost her innocence.

Betrayed by her father’s lack of trust and wounded by the rumors, Karen had taken her own life by jumping into the river. She had already passed away, and Skye Embroidery had taken care of her burial arrangements.

At least, that was the official story spread throughout the capital.

When people heard that version of events, they were outraged at Douglas, and many praised the martial artist who had taken justice into his own hands. A crowd began gathering at Karen’s grave, offering flowers in her memory, hoping she would be reborn into a better life.

In fact, the grave was a ceremonial one for Karen, where she buried the clothes she had worn when trying to take her life. Alana and Leah had helped her make it, marking the end of her 17 years of life.
