NovelEnglishHer Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 892
Chapter 892
Barrett wasn't really supused. Though his tas the commander of the Crown Guard had been short, he wasn’t
foolish and could sense the king's intentions to make the Crown Guard an independent unit
Salvador was wary of the Hell Monarch, so how could he allow Carissa to control all the security in the kingdom,
including the king’s own safety?
Barrett smiled wryly “Well, it's something beyond my control. | am in mourning for my mom and must observe
the mourning period”
Wayne smiled gently, pouring him a cup of coffee. He spoke quietly, “Prince Harvey can help you.”
Barrett blinked, taken aback. Harvey barely interacted with anyone in the capital, so how could he possibly help
him? Besides, would he really do it out of guilt-if that guilt even existed? And if there was guilt, it would be for
Canssa, not for him.

Barrett wasn’t stupid
Setting aside whether Harvey could actually help him, if he could, it would be for a reason. If he truly did assist
him, Barrett would owe him, and from then on, he would becthe prince's servant.
“In accordance with tradition, I'm observing the mourning period for my mom, unless the king issues an edict to
revoke it. However, I'm not an important court official, nor am | a general on the frontier. The king does not need
me,” Barrett said slowly.
Wayne chuckled softly. “Commander Warren, you underestimate yourself. You've disappointed the king tand
again, yet he’s still willing to offer you a chance. Do you know why?”
“Why?” Barrett asked, indeed confused about it.
“It’s because of your grudge against the Hell Monarch. The Mystic Army was originally led by Prince Rafael. After
he becChief Judge, he could have continued leading it. Many court officials hold multiple positions So, why
did His Majesty choose Lady Carissa to take over as commander of the Mystic Army?” Wayne posited, his gaze
fixed on the other man
Barrett paused, thinking Slowly, the pieces began to fall into place, but he still didn’t fully understand
“Why?” he asked again
Wayne didn’t bother holding back and spoke directly, “Changing the commander of the Mystic Army would cause
dissatisfaction within its ranks, since the soldiers were all handpicked and trained by Prince Rafael But Lady
Carissa is his wife. Replacing him with her would make it easier for them to accept her.
“However, she won't hold the position for long. The king will gradually reduce her power-first the Crown Guard,
then the Royal Guard, and eventually the Capital Guard. At best, she’ll be left with the Garrison Unit, which is
mostly made up of useless, undisciplined men who are no threat at all.”
Even though Barrett had suspected sof it, hearing it laid out so plainly still sent a chill down his spine.
Salvador’s repeated attempts to keep Barrett close weren't because he appreciated his talents. No, Barrett was
just a pawn in Salvador’s game, used to balance out Rafael and Carissa, who had personal grudges against him.

He remembered Sebastian's words-how Barrett had potential, but wasn’t a great man of talent.

Sebastian could see it, so how could the king not? In other words, without the tension between Barrett, Rafael,
and Carissa, Salvador would have cast him aside long ago, right?
A compheated storm of thoughts swept through Barrett's mind In the back of it all, he wondered if he would
rather be just an ordinary member of the Capital Guard.
Seeing his conflicted expression, Wayne continued to push, “I imagine you're not content with the situation,
Commander Warren A woman who divorced you, who even caused such a public scandal, is now above you and
holding power over you
“Don’t you want the power to put her beneath your feet? When she divorced you, it caused a citywide uproar. It
tarnished the Warren family’s reputation and even caused your mom's death. If it weren't for her, Sebastian
would never have stopped your mom’s medicine
Barrett looked up, his expression darkening, his gaze full of anger and confusion.
Pleased to see that look, Wayne's voice was laced with even more persuasion as he added, “It was Lady Canssa
who killed your mom. It was she who destroyed your family’s reputation, turning them into a joke.
“If you lose the Crown Guard commander's position, you'll never rise again. The king may want you to help
balance out Prince Rafael and Lady Carissa, but he doesn’t need you. If you want a future, Prince Harvey can
help you, Commander Warren
