Melody of Strength novel

The Mystic Army was now utterly impressed with Carissa, particularly Michael.

He could see the formidable nature of Carissa’s move. She had shattered the wooden staff into many pleces, and they had all been perfectly aligned. There was a subtle but powerful technique hidden within her inner force. Among all the flying wooden shards, only the one that landed on his neck was light.

As the sun set and darkness enveloped the land, the campfire cast its glow over the gradually dispersing soldiers. They chattered excitedly about Carissa’s technique.

“That staff shattered into pieces right on the spot! It was incredible–almost like magic!”

“She’s truly worthy of being the late General Sinclair’s daughter. She’s amazing!”

“I told you, if she hadn’t made real achievements on the battlefield, how could she have risen to the rank of a fifth–ranked general?”

“You shameless idiot! You were the loudest back then! You even made a fuss and tried to protest to the marshal. If I hadn’t dragged you away, you’re the one who’d get lashed.”

“Hey, come on! I was just believing what General Yates said. She claimed General Sinclair was on the battlefield to avenge a marriage insult, wanting to outdo everyone and make General Warren regret his decision.”

“To be honest, I think General Yates is a bit shameless–spreading rumors and making righteous accusations against General Sinclair before the fight even started.”

“Shut up! Do you want to get beaten?”

Various voices buzzed in Aurora’s ears. Her face burned with embarrassment and shame, and she felt a surge of anger. She wiped the blood from her lips, suppressed the boiling rage inside her, and strode up to Carissa.

“When Michael challenged you, you knew I was watching from the city tower. You deliberately staged the performance for me so that I would challenge you, right?” she demanded.

Violet’s cold voice cut in from the side, “Staged a performance for you? Who do you think you are?”

“Shut your mouth! Who do you think you are? Did I ask

or your opinion?“–

Aurora’s face twisted with fury as she shouted at Violet. Violet was momentarily stunned, but was Immediately enraged. She lifted her whip, ready to strike Aurora.

“Vivi!” Carissa grabbed Violet’s whip with one hand. “Stop!”

Violet was seething with rage. “Cari, let me go!”

Who dared to shout at her like that except Carissa?

Cynthia quickly approached them, wrapping her arms around Violet’s waist and pulling Violet back. She’s a general. We can’t show disrespect. The marshal is strict with his troops, and we need to fight.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

However, Violet couldn’t tolerate the humiliation. “Let go of me! I don’t care if she’s a general or a marshal! I’m going to shit on her face!”

Aurora’s anger reached a boiling point. “How dare you!”

Carissa, both exasperated and amused, released the whip and tossed it to Violet. “Violet Spencer! Go back for now. I’ll speak to her.”

Violet lashed out with the whip, creating a deep crack in the ground that extended all the way to the campfire stand. With a furious shout, she growled, “You better deal with her properly, or I’ll come back and give her a proper whipping!”

With that, she stormed off.

Carissa signaled to Cynthia and the others to follow Violet to prevent her from impulsively destroying Aurora’s tent.

Aurora stared at the crack in the ground, stunned. She could hardly believe her eyes. Just one lash from the whip, and the ground had split open so dramatically! What kind of people did Carissa keep by her side?

Carissa saw that most of the soldiers had dispersed, leaving only a few stragglers watching from a distance.

Barrett stepped forward and stood beside Aurora, his eyes filled with unspoken emotions.

“So, Michael’s challenge as Aurora said, staged for us, right?” Barrett asked.

Carissa’s eyes reflected the flickering light of the campfire. They burned with intensity, yet her voice remained cool and indifferent.

“Do you think so highly of yourselves? A performance for you two? Do you really deserve that?”

Aurora stepped closer and sneered, “Michael just stood there and took a single hit from you without moving. After that, he surrendered immediately. Are you telling me something like that wasn’t staged?”
