NovelEnglishChapter 155 Carissa didn't mention Salvador's strange edict to her friends. Instead, she simply thanked them for their help in the Southern Frontier.
"The Sandorian soldiers killed my father and brothers. My trip to the Southern Frontier was primarily for revenge. You've helpedachieve that, and I will remember this kindness." Hearing this, everyone felt a lot better.
Indeed, Carissa's father and brothers had been killed by the Sandorian soldiers. According to the martial world's code, a life for a life was a matter of principle. They had merely assisted Carissa in avenging her family, and need not dwell on anything beyond that.

"That sounds good," Violet replied. "But we don't have any money. The king hasn't given us our reward yet." Travis looked at Carissa blankly. "Do you think the king might have. forgotten?" Carissa smiled. "He certainly hasn't forgotten. The king promised to reward the army personally. Since we've achieved military merits, the rewards will definitely be generous." "I hope we get a hundred gold coins! That would cover our annual rent for ten years," Travis said with a grin.
In the Lunar Guild, Travis was the only male member. Though the guild was based in Meadow Ridge, the land was owned by the Pathfinders Guild. Every year, the Lunar Guild had to pay rent to them. However, the Lunar Guild had little business, and Travis's master was quite traditional, so the apprentices focused solely on martial arts and weren't allowed to engage in trade.
And I want to buy smakeup for the girls in the guild. They always dress so plainly, and their clothes are patched up repeatedly. If I bring back sfine silk, my master surely won't scoldfor going to the battlefield... Oh, and need to buy shairpins and accessories..." Violet interrupted, "Your master won't blyou for going to the battlefield, but if you dare to bring those things back, a good thrashing would be the least of your worries. He might just chop off all ten of your fingers." Everyone laughed. It was indeed a real possibility.
Before they could leave, Dylan arrived and informed them that it was tto collect their rewards.
Violet and the others indeed received a hundred gold coins each. Carissa, having achieved merit by breaking through the city wall, was awarded one thousand gold coins and promoted to the rank of fourth-ranked general. Though she held the rank, no official position was assigned to her.
Travis was overjoyed with his gold coins. He clutched the gold to his chest, and nibbled at it piece by piece. Seeing this, Violet gave him her own gold coins as well.
"You can have it all. I don't need it." Travis's eyes widened in disbelief. "But it's gold! Why don't you want it?" "I obviously don't need it. I'm not interested in it," Violet replied nonchalantly. She had never lacked money in her life-what she lacked was affection.

Wat how thy does your family have?" ngat much but enough to support the Inferno Guild," Violet said Indifferently Travis's eyes widened even more "Dood heavens! Your family supports the interno Guld? No wonder you seem to live so comfortably. Despite not engaging in any business or escort missions, you always have a bountiful supply of meat and vegetables. So it's all funded by your family?" During their tin Meadow Ridge although they had spent a lot of ttogether, they had little knowledge of each other's backgrounds. They usually discussed martial arts or amusing. stories from their respective guilds.
"Aren't we supposed to be out shopping? Let's go," Violet said. She clearly didn't want to delve into family matters.
The group set off happily. They first exchanged sgold for silver and copper coins at the money exchange. Then they went to the most bustling street, exploring various shops. They bought anything suitable without hesitation.
Barrett also received a hundred gold coins. As the general who led the reinforcements to the Southern m s Frontier, he deserved the reward for his hardships, even if he didn't directly contribute to the achievements. He had eliminated many enemies on the battlefield and had played a crucial role in assisting Carissa with the siege, making his contributions significant.
However, he had failed to properly manage his troops in Aurora's unit, which nearly caused the siege to fail. Aurora's unit was also annihilated, with over a dozen of their men captured. That was a lapse in his command, and he had faced punishment in place of Aurora. Thus, he didn't receive any promotion and only received the gold coins.
