Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 1062

Chapter 1062

Aurora trembled.

Of course, she would never forget these two villages.

She took a sharp breath, her elbows pushing against the ground as she crawled forward, moving slowly. “N–No, I won’t go! You said you were taking me back to Westhaven’s capital, didn’t you?”

“Of course we are.” Yuna’s expression was cold as ice. “We’ll just bring your head back. It’s simpler that way.”

Aurora’s eyes widened in terror, and her hands gripped the iron bars weakly. “No! Please, don’t take me to Grapevine Village! Take me to the capital. Kill me in front of the prince’s grave!”

Yuna’s face twisted with hatred. “What makes you think you’re worthy to reach the prince’s grave? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do. Do you really believe your coward of a husband will come to save you? Stop fooling yourself–he won’t come.” “No, you’ve got it all wrong!” Aurora’s eyes darted nervously. “I truly regret my actions. I shouldn’t have used such cruel methods against the people of Fawnrun City, I was wrong! I’m not asking for your forgiveness. I just want to be taken to the prince’s grave, so I can beg for forgiveness in person!”

Yuna laughed bitterly, her voice dripping with contempt. “How laughable. We’ve been receiving reports. Barrett never left Starhaven, so whether you’re heading to Grapevine village or Westhaven’s capital, there will be no one coming to save you.”

She leaned down slightly, locking eyes with Aurora’s shocked gaze.

“You’re going to die. And it will be a painful death.”

Aurora collapsed to the ground, her hands too weak to hold the bars. She rolled to the side, curling up.

The fear of death shook her body, her heart racing with panic.

It couldn’t be true. Barrett wasn’t heartless. He might be weak, he might be useless, but he had promised her. He would keep his word!

“Are you

afraid? You should be.” Yuna’s voice was cold, but with a touch of satisfaction. Seeing Aurora like this finally gave her a sense of relief.

These past days, she had been busy dealing with the retreat of the troops. So, Yuna had only ordered Aurora’s tendons to be severed and nothing else.

This was the moment Yuna had been waiting for.

“N–No, it’s not possible…” gasped for air as if drowning, her breath shallow and quick.

She had to stay calm. This person was only trying to intimidate her. She couldn’t fall for it!

Who were those villagers to pass judgment on her? She was supposed to be brought to Westhaven and to the prince’s grave, where she would be executed. That way, it meant she still had a chance she could wait for Barrett to come and save her.

Yet at this moment, her mind was clear. No matter how much she tried to deceive herself, reason couldn’t be silenced.

Barrett hadn’t come all this way. Even if she were taken back to Westhaven, Barrett wouldn’t come. Even if he did, he wouldn’t be able to save her.

She grabbed the moldy straw on the floor, using all her strength to lift her head. Panic set in as she stammered, “I–It was Dominic Sullivan! It was Dominic’s orders! I was just following instructions. Tell the grand princess that. Tell her to replace Dominic. I’m just scapegoat! I’m just a scapegoat. You’ve been tricked, really! You’ve been deceived!” Yuna sneered, but said nothing. She picked up the lamp and slowly began to walk away. Aurora watched the faint glow of the lamp slowly disappear. Without the light, the darkness seemed to surge forward, devouring everything around her like a wild beast. The darkness was like a whirlpool, pulling her in. Her body shook with cold.

“No! Come back! Please, listen to me! I’m just a lowly commander! I couldn’t have made the decisions on my own! Why would they listen to me? I was used! They pushed forward to take the fall for them!”

The light grew fainter and eventually vanished completely. The only sound left was the creaking of the heavy iron door. The darkness closed in, swallowing her frantic cries.

Aurora let out a strangled scream. “No, don’t leave! Come back!”

There was no response. The silence around her was deafening, and all she could hear was the pounding of her heartbeat thudding in the darkness like the beat of a drum. Her eardrums felt as though they would burst under the pressure.
