Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 110

The battlefield had moved inside Simonton City.

From the moment the siege began, the citizens locked their doors and hid inside their homes. The Sandoria soldiers had enslaved the people, and even abused women during their occupation. Despite knowing that the city would be a battlefield after the gates fell, the townsfolk fervently hoped the Hell Monarch Army would drive the Sandoria soldiers away.

As the fierce battle raged, Aurora charged into the city with the main army and quickly fought her way to the front lines. Though she wasn’t the only female general, she was the only one wearing a custom battle robe specially made for her by the Ministry of Defense.

Her armor featured a red headscarf, symbolizing her determination to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with her male counterparts.

Despite the chaotic fighting, she stood out like a sore thumb.

Liam spotted her, as did many Westhaven soldiers.

The strategy to target her began. The Westhaven troops she pursued began a strategic retreat, knowing her competitive nature would compel her to chase them down and try to eradicate them.

Barrett noticed this, and shouted, “Aurora, don’t chase them!”

Something felt off. Starhaven and Sandoria's armies were still fighting, and the entire city was a battlefield. It was unlikely that the enemy would actually retreat without a clear signal. The only plausible reason for their retreat was to lure Aurora into a trap.

Moreover, the soldiers' appearance indicated they were from Westhaven.

Barrett couldn’t shake the suspicion that Westhaven had a specific strategy targeting Aurora, possibly related to the peace treaty at Victory Pass. Despite his claim of trusting her, he always had his doubts.

“Aurora, come back!” Barrett yelled. He tried to follow her, but the enemy surrounded him, and he couldn't break free. He had to keep fighting, unable to spare another glance at Aurora.

Aurora heard Barrett calling for her, but didn’t stop. She relied on her own judgment.

The retreating soldiers were clearly suspicious; possibly, they were young nobles from Westhaven seeking battle experience. Capturing them and repeating the same trick she had used before might force the Westhaven forces to withdraw completely.

She knew that to earn military achievements now, she needed to find a unique approach. No matter how many enemies she killed, Rafael wouldn't include her name in his commendation report.
