Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 1652

After standing there for a moment, it was Aurora who first thought of something. She pushed aside her earlier sarcasm and stepped forward to ask, "Have you come to volunteer for the mission to burn the enemy's supply depot as well?"

"You too?" Travis replied, raising a brow.

Aurora nodded. "I've noticed your skills in battle. You all move swiftly and strike true. If you and your group wish to come, very well. But know this: all orders will come from me and General Warren."

Aurora had taken note of how they fought with grace and courage on the battlefield. Though they had fought in two fierce battles at the front lines, not one of them bore a wound. Had their skills been anything less, they would have died long ago.

She also knew that Carissa was Dominic's granddaughter. If Carissa joined the mission, the Grand General would surely send more troops with them. That would halve the danger and increase their chances of success. No matter how she looked at it, this was an excellent chance to gain merit.

When Tyler first mentioned the plan, Aurora had been hesitant. Sneaking into Fawnrun City was dangerous. One false step could mean death without hope of rescue. But after careful thought, she saw it as a golden opportunity.

She was a female general praised by the queen dowager herself! If she could change the tide at Victory Pass, the credit would be hers alone. With that, a promotion to a third-rank general would be well within reach.

In a lifetime, chances that truly belonged to oneself were few and far between. She had to seize every single one with both hands.

She shared her thoughts with Barrett, who agreed without hesitation. That was why they had come to Dominic that very evening to ask for permission to lead the mission.

Travis glanced between the two of them and quietly said, "We don't answer to you. We only follow Cari."

Aurora pointed toward Carissa, confused. "Her? Has she been promoted?"

Aurora knew Travis was a centurion and that any operation would normally be led by him. Surely, that meant Carissa and their group took orders from him. From what Aurora had heard, Carissa went by the name Jo in the army. She held no official rank and was merely a common soldier.

But she quickly caught on and glanced at Carissa coolly. "Oh? Is it because she is General Dominic's granddaughter that she is given special treatment? Having a Grand General as a grandfather does make things easier, doesn't it? One can do as they please."

Cynthia bristled at her tone, retorting, "You're really something else, always speaking with such sarcasm. Whether we follow her or not is our own business. What's it got to do with you?"
