Chapter 1111

Yuvan’s reputation was ruined, and now, he was being sent back to the capital for

treatment.

The procession that left the city was grand, but it returned in defeat, escorted by the soldiers of the garrison outpost.

Wayne claimed it was because he had fallen for a woman, but Thomas was as cautious as ever. He insisted that no conclusions could be drawn until a thorough investigation was done. The matter must be looked into carefully

The suicide soldiers had surrendered without a fight. Two had been caught before during a mission, and they were tough–refusing to say a single word. But now, they couldn’t reveal themselves to be suicide soldiers. If they did, their presence near the garrison outpost would give Thomas grounds to accuse them of plotting an attack on a military outpost.

So, they claimed to be Yuvan’s household soldiers from Horizon Estate, and were there simply to escort him to the capital and then back to Valken. The special status of these soldiers meant they couldn’t enter the city itself, which was why they had stayed at an estate at the western mountain pass.
