The second deputy defense minister, Ethan Smith, said. “Your Majesty, sending reinforcements now may be too late. Our spies didn’t pick up on this, which means all our spies in Sandoria and Westhaven must have been killed.” 

Salvador remembered that ten days ago, Carissa had come to the palace with a forged letter, claiming it was information from Kyle. At that time, he thought she was simply bitter about Barrett and Aurora’s marriage. In turn, he reprimanded her and put her under house arrest 

He didn’t realize she was speaking the truth. 

Had he believed her ten days ago, they could have sent reinforcements immediately and started gathering supplies. With his brother’s command capabilities, they might have stood a chance against the Westhaven Sandoria alliance. 

Meanwhile, Aurora and Barrett exchanged glances. Their long–awaited opportunity had finally arrived! 

They had used their achievement at Victory Pass to request a marriage edict. If they could achieve great success on the Southern Frontier battlefield, they would become highly sought–after military leaders. 

No one would dare mock them then! 

Barrett still remembered the humiliation of his wedding. Despite being intimate with Aurora over the past few days, he was still seething inside. 

In addition, his mother Rebecca had fallen ill upon learning about his pre–marital relations with Aurora. He had personally sought out Sebastian, but never even got to see the man. Aurora also tried to get help, but Sebastian refused to open his door, which infuriated her. 

In the end, his sister–in–law Amelia spent two days kneeling in front of the physician’s office and finally managed to buy five Snowdrop Pills. They were incredibly expensive–originally thirty silver coins each- but Amelia had to pay one hundred silver coins even after spending two days kneeling. 

Even selling Valor Estate wouldn’t cover the cost of the medicine for long. Barrett and Aurora were left facing ridicule, while Amelia earned praise for her devotion. 

Barrett and Aurora’s heroic achievements were forgotten, overshadowed by the disaster of their wedding. They desperately needed battlefield success to restore their honor. 

Both of them quickly knelt on the ground. 

“Your Majesty, the situation is urgent. Please send additional troops. I’m willing to lead the reinforcements to the Southern Frontier and aim to reach the battlefield before the Westhaven forces arrive,” Aurora said. 

Barrett was caught off guard. He wanted to stop Aurora, but didn’t make it in time. 

The king immediately asked, “Can you really reach the Southern Frontier before the Westhaven forces 

arrive?” 

Aurora replied firmly, “I will do my utmost.” 

“Very well,” Salvador said, “General Warren will be the commander, and General Yates will be the deputy commander. You are to immediately mobilize one hundred thousand soldiers from the Capital Army and march through the nights without delay” 

Aurora was startled to hear it.

“Your Majesty, even two hundred thousand soldiers might not be enough. The current force at the Southern Frontier is fewer than two hundred thousand, while Westhaven and Sandoria combined have at least five hundred thousand soldiers.

“Moreover, Sandoria possesses sacred firearms, I propose sending ten thousand soldiers from the Sacred Fire Regiment and thirty thousand from the Mystic Army to accompany the Capital Army soldiers under General Warren’s command.” 

Davis quickly objected to this. “Your Majesty! The Mystic Army is your personal guard, and shouldn’t be easily removed from the capital.” 

Salvador pondered for a moment, then said, “Send ten thousand soldiers from the Sacred Fire Regiment with General Warren. Allocate fifteen thousand Mystic Army troops to join the soldiers from the Capital Army. Once reinforcements arrive at the Southern Frontier, they will be placed under the command of the Hell Monarch.”
