Chapter 366

Penulis: Laughing Riot
Torrin finally left, taking the thousand Hartshire soldiers with him.

Left behind were the remainder of Nathaniel's troops, now disguised in the uniforms of the local garrison soldiers. Torrin had selected several of his finest men for Selena, and though she knew them to be exceptional warriors, none possessed true command experience. Even they themselves lacked confidence.

But she truly had no time to seek help from any other generals. As for the original commander stationed in Hartshire, she didn't know him, nor did she know how loyal he was to the Obsidian Monarch. Should he secretly serve another faction of the royal family, her plan could be ruined.

At last, after one final study of the tactical model, she changed into her armor and prepared to leave the tent.

Before she could step out, a soldier hurried in. "My lady! A few people have intruded into the camp. The men have surrounded them."

Selena's eyes narrowed, moving swiftly toward the commotion.

    The news of the Obsidian Monarch's grievous injury had indeed arrived."Where are the scouts?" Selena asked.Having slept through the afternoon, the weariness of her long journey had completely faded.Torrin stepped forward, bringing the scouts into the room. These were men from Hartshire itself, and even the governor, Robert Miller, had come with them."Lady Campbell, our scouts have long traveled the Mount Iron mountain range. Their experience is unmatched, and their reports are never in error," Robert said, his voice edged with urgent anxiety.The town was filled with soldiers that Nathaniel had brought, and he had taken only a hundred men to Mount Iron. Even Robert had not known this, for the main army had yet to return to the town.The soldiers remained hidden outside, moving silently and deliberately, and their presence was carefully concealed. But why?Finally, Robert looked at Selena with wide eyes. "Lady Campbell, His Highness left the army behind outside Hartshire. Cou

    "The Yelwyn Cavalry isn't always in the capital. Half our men are busy across the realm. Ronan and I are the only ones of the level you require who accompanied His Highness on this journey, and Ronan followed him to Mount Iron. I was left here to guard Hartshire," Torrin replied, feeling his chest tighten as Selena's words sank in.Suddenly, the sequence of events became clearer to him. No wonder Nathaniel had ordered him to stay behind. By the time the prince rode to Mount Iron, he had surely already understood this danger.Those men didn't merely intend to strike the prince at Mount Iron, they also planned to create chaos here in Hartshire!"But even if they captured Hartshire, they wouldn't be able to hold it once reinforcements from the surrounding cities arrived. Taking the town would be of no use to them," Torrin pointed out.That was why Hartshire's garrison was so small.Selena pressed her lips together, her eyes growing cold and merciless. "According to their plan, the pr

    "You must take your men into the stone forest and rescue the 'gravely wounded' Prince Nathaniel," Selena said quietly.Torrin looked utterly bewildered. "But my lady, did you not say that news of His Highness' injury would be false?"And even that was uncertain. They couldn't yet know whether such news would arrive at all. If it did, it might simply be a ploy to lure them away. If they already suspected a trap, how could they truly leave their post?"If you don't go to rescue him, how would those people dare to advance upon the town?" Selena replied. Her delicate brows furrowed, betraying her own hesitation.At last, Torrin understood. So, that was what she meant."If I take my comrades to search for His Highness, what of the townspeople when the enemies come?" he asked, worry still gnawing at him.Though Hartshire had its own garrison, it was a small one.Long before this, Selena and Sebastian had defeated the bandits in the area and driven them from Mount Iron, so the soldiers

    Torrin still couldn't reason it out. Hartshire was hardly a wealthy place. If a handful of ruffians had merely entered the town to steal for their own survival, it might have been excusable.But Nathaniel had come to eradicate the people who had crafted those terrifying Thundershells. Anyone capable of forging such weapons couldn't be taken lightly. Such men would never trouble themselves with a poor town like this. There was no profit in it."Lady Campbell..."Selena exhaled slowly. "I imagine he studied the tactical model, examined it thoroughly, and chose his course only after that. Who prepared the tactical model?""It was Ivy Yarrow. She is ranked seventeenth among the Yelwyn Cavalry, and is a master of tracking and reconnaissance," Torrin replied.Anything Ivy built was rarely in error.Selena looked at him with mild surprise. "She is a woman?"Torrin started as if stung. Something had clearly occurred to him, and he hurried to explain, "She may be a lady, but her manner i

    Selena cleared her throat, willing the awkward flutter in her chest to settle, then looked at Torrin. "In truth, I—""In truth, His Highness once commanded that should he fall on the battlefield, the command emblem is to be placed in your keeping," Torrin cut her off with quiet firmness."What?" Selena felt her heart lurch, a cold tremor running through her.This was no trifling matter. A token held by the Obsidian Monarch himself carried a weight that could shake the entire realm. But Torrin couldn't possibly be joking about such a matter.Selena stared at him, her breath coming in short, uneven gasps.His expression remained composed as he continued in a gentle tone, "Liam, Cloud, and everyone in the Yelwyn Cavalry know of it. His Highness personally told us this."Selena's fingers curled slowly into her palm. She was speechless.Her emotions were too heavy, tangled between shock and something painfully tender. Why would Nathaniel entrust such a charge to her?Perhaps he fear
