章 526: A score to settle

"Tell the knights to fall back and prioritize the safety of the people. We will go to our estate," I said, after discussing the plans with them. We didn't have a long time to spare to discuss everything other than important matters at hand. 

Currently, the knights who were supposed to guard this place were wiped out by the chief knight. Hence, we were short in hand. But I had the perfect person to send this message to everyone on our side. I marched towards the chief knight, searching his lifeless body until I found what I was looking for. His command insignia. 

I stared at it in my hand before clutching it, standing up to face everyone. I took a deep breath and sauntered towards the shattered window, peeking my head out to see everyone looking up. Their faces brightened up as soon as they saw me, but I ignored them.
