"Tell Baron Fordebart to visit my mansion tomorrow afternoon. I have a few mining areas that haven't been used for months now but there are still a lot of gems that can be found inside of them. I can give it to your father in advance and just pay me later for a very low price once your family becomes stable once again." the female General saidThe mines that Rovira is talking about are just a few rewards that she received after she participated in the war for several years. Since her schedule has become hectic, Rovira has no time to manage all of her properties. That's why half of the documents about her assets and properties are still untouched until now."T-That's..." "Just make sure to tell him to visit my mansion in the afternoon. I have an appointment with His Majesty in the morning. I cannot meet Baron Fordebart at that time." General Rovira reminded her.Lady Selina remained standing there while staring at the female General with a surprised expression on her face. The young l
The people inside the resting room had a good dinner together after a maid brought them a full-course meal. The meat is so tender and savory, the soup is warm and flavorful, and the desserts remove all the lingering taste of mixed flavors in their mouths that will turn into a disgusting feeling later. The fruit juices they drank is also refreshing.All in all, they both had a good dinner tonight.While eating, Rovira noticed that the two ladies are talking and exchanging words with smiles on their faces. Their pace is not too slow or too fast in knowing each other. Lady Selina doesn't mind the Royal Princess's short responses. Instead, she is telling her a lot of short stories about herself and telling what she felt or thought about those things. They also exchange a little information about themselves and discovered that they shared a few things like their love for books or their dislike when it comes to broccoli but still has to eat those mini trees on their plate because they still
When General Rovira and Sir Gabriel returns to the banquet hall, they instantly heard someone shouting inside followed by a loud crashing sound."Assassins!"A male servant was stabbed by a woman dressed as a maid. Taking that as a signal, a magic circle suddenly appears on the floor and several men dressed in black appear in the banquet hall. All of them are holding different sharp weapons in their hands.Because of that, everyone inside the party hall panics for their lives. Loud screams can be heard everywhere. They are also scattered everywhere hoping to find a better place to hide. The knights inside the party hall quickly gather around Prince Marius who is standing next to the General Commander of the Solaris Knights. General Aster gives his knights an instruction to keep the Crown Prince safe. "Sir Gabriel, go back to the resting room and protect Princess Andrea at all costs!" The Vice General doesn't need to be told twice. After giving General Rovira a firm nod, he turns aro
Before General Commander Castella can say a word, the assassins did not wait anymore and quickly attacked them all at once.Most of the nobles left inside the party hall are all quivering in fear. This assassination attempt is really a surprise for all of them. They all expect a jovial and harmonious birthday party tonight. They even pay the best tailors and dressmakers in the kingdom to make their party clothes tonight.But all of it is useless to think of right now. They are now all afraid for their lives. Someone estimated that a hundred assassins were sent tonight to kill the Crown Prince. It is not hard to tell who is their target tonight. When Prince Marius is nowhere to be found inside the hall, the assassins start following him but was stopped by General Rovira. She already dealt with those assassins who dares to step out of this party hall. They were temporarily stuck from their mission because the female General is too strong and cannot be defeated by a few strokes of sword
Rovira has no time to think about it. She should attack these demonic creatures before investing in this incident. But first, she has to destroy the magic circle so that no more demonic creatures will appear inside the banquet hall. Avoiding the attacks coming from their opponents, Rovira jumps high and lands in front of the magic circle. Using her sword, the female General stabs the floor until she can make a huge crack and distort the magic circle drawn on it.The blinding light that is coming from it disappeared in an instant. Rovira is not too knowledgeable when it comes to magic. But the female General can tell that she succeeded in destroying the magic circle. Before she can try to destroy it further, a demonic creature is charging toward her at the back. "Be careful!"General Commander Castella blocks the demonic creature using his huge sword and kick it in its stomach. There are now standing back to back. General Aster asked if she gets injured but Rovira did not say anything
Rovira watches as Lady Rosalyn helps Roselyn to walk and follows her lead. Even in this kind of situation, she is still a gentle mother to her favorite daughter. Rovira can also see how Lady Rosalyn tries to coax her adopted daughter by saying comforting words in her ear and wrapping an arm around Roselyn's back. When the former Countess and her adopted daughter finally moved to a safer place, Rovira looks at the demonic creature in front of her. Both of her hands and wrists are injured and bleeding. But she cannot feel any pain from it. Ignoring her injuries, the female General moves her hand that is blocking the monster's mouth with a sword."Disgusting." Rovira said as she forcefully removes the sword from the monster's mouth.The demonic creature lets out a pained growl when its tongue gets torn after the female General pulls her sword that is stabbing it. But the monster is not the only one that gets hurt by it. When Rovira moves her hand, her wrist which is pierced by the monst
The General Commander of the Nocturnus Knights is now standing in the middle of the banquet hall. Her military uniform is now a bit messy due to the cuts, dirt, and bloodstains on its fabric. Next to her is the dead body of the demonic creature that she killed just now. While the nobles are thinking of celebrating now that the danger in their lives is no longer alive, the female General looks at her finger that is no longer wearing her ring."I guess it can't be helped, huh," Rovira murmured to herself.Before the nobles can approach her and give their gratitude, something is happening to the female General. As she closes her eyes, the chestnut color of her hair is slowly fading and turning into bluish-silver. Everyone inside the banquet hall is witnessing such a surprising scene. But they become more shocked the moment she opens her eyes and see her deep sapphire eyes."Wait. Isn't she the eldest daughter of Count Byron?" a noble who once saw Charlotte in the past asked."You're righ
Everywhere Charlotte goes, the people's attention is always on her. They can't stop themselves from talking about the revelation that the feracious female General Commander in their empire is the missing daughter of Count Byron White for fourteen years. Although an assassination attempt has happened at the banquet tonight, it is still not enough to cover up the truth that transpired right in front of them. Of course, Charlotte remains indifferent to the attention she's getting tonight. Instead, she continues to do her duty as a General Commander without any flaw. She orders the Nocturnus Knights to bring the assassins who are still alive inside the underground prison and prepare the things she will need for interrogation later. The truth about her identity is the least concern Charlotte has in her mind. What's important for her is to know if her speculation is right—whether the person who sent those monsters and assassins is the same person who is responsible for their kidnapping fou
