Samson was just as confused.

“I don’t know, either. It was Mr. Murphy himself who told me,” he said.

Wayne's heart tightened with fear. Clifford was known for his meticulous planning. If he said he would arrive by

nightfall, he would never be late.

“Could there have been an ambush along the way? That can’t be,” Wayne muttered, his mind racing. “The

scouts reported that General Murray's forces were scattered, busy suppressing bandits, and they've already

moved into Nanyara. They wouldn’t be able to return in time.”

“If there had been an ambush, Mr. Murphy would've sent word. They have scouts,” Samson said, his face pale.

Sir, what do we do now? We can’t win against the Capital Army.”

Wayne took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself. “Our only option is to survive. We need to find a way to

escape and meet up with Mr. Murphy.”

“But if we leave, Valken will fall,” Samson said urgently. “What about all our families? How do we get them out?

The gates are under guard. We can only escape through Asterpeak Mountain, but with so many elderly and

children, how can we make it?”

Wayne gave quick orders to the servants and guards at Horizon Estate. “We don’t have tto worry about that.

We'll escape first. Your families will be safe-they’re civilians. General Farrell won't harm them.”

Samson hurried to the back courtyard. Fiona had already heard the news and was packing up their belongings.

She didn’t need Wayne to explain-she knew they had no choice but to flee.

Yuvan'’s children were in a panic, scrambling to gather valuables. However, the servants and attendants refused

to listen to any of their orders, seizing gold and jewelry for themselves and fleeing through the back door.

Samson was enraged. He drew his sword and quickly struck down a few of the more unruly servants before the

rest dared not act out further.

Fiona grabbed her brother's hand. “Samson, you must send someone to cover our escape. We cannot fall into

the hands of the Capital Army!”

She knew Wayne and the others had betrayed Yuvan. Though she didn’t want that, Yuvan lacked the resolve to

make it happen. Seeing his lack of ambition and ungrateful nature, she realized he would never make her his

queen once he rose to power.

It was better to defect to Nicholas and secure srewards for herself. She was already too deeply involved to

back out.

Samson's gaze hardened. “I'll send people to escort you out of Asterpeak Mountain. Once you've left, change

your appearance and hide in a remote village. Don’t let anyone know where you are.”

“Live in a remote village? How can we?” Stephanie’s face twisted with dismay. She added pitifully, “And

Asterpeak Mountain is hto wild beasts, wolyés, tigers, and snakes! | don’t want to stay there!”

“If you don’t leave, you'll die. Do you want to keep your life or do you want comfort?” Samson's voice was sharp

and commanding.

Stephanie opened her mouth to argue, but Sabrina tugged at her sleeve, a silent warning. Seeing the fierce look

on Samson's face, they didn’t dare say anything else.

It was clear that escaping was the most important thing.

Ignoring Wayne's protests, Samson insisted on dispatching a hundred guards to escort them out. But as soon as

he made the decision, it becclear that the other officials in Valken were doing the same.

With the city in disarray and leadership lacking, Wayne's authority no longer held any weight.

Many of the personal guards and private soldiers had never wanted to fight against the Capital Army, to begin

with. Escaping was the best outcfor them.

This shift in allegiance reduced their

forces by a third. Valken was already

But the worst thing in a battle was a scattered and disorganized force. Without unity, how could they possibly

After that, he set off with a group of his men to help Chester.

Winona was caught up in the chaos of battle as well, but her focus was not on the fighting. She was looking for a

way to reach Clifford.

At first, Clifford's forces were losing

It wasn’t until morning, when Thomas’ reinforcements arrived, that the tide of battle finally began to turn.
