We fought from night until dawn, killing until our limbs went numb, yet the enemy seemed endless. It wasn’t until a long, piercing wolf howl cut through the chaos that the warriors of Ovila Kingdom and Solantia finally pulled back.

The blood-soaked Christmas Eve came to an end.

I couldn’t help wondering how many nights like this my father and brothers had endured.

This battle belonged to Rydar. We’d won.

Once the enemy retreated, Omega soldiers from logistics moved in to clear the field, carrying away our wounded and counting the enemy dead. My classmates and I leaned against a wall, all of us drenched in blood.

“Laila,” Viola panted, “how many did you kill?”

“I don’t know,” I said, lifting my arm. It felt unbearably heavy. “I stopped counting after 30.”

“Really?” Manu’s eyes lit up. He grabbed my hand and Viola’s. “Come on! We’re getting promoted!”

We hurried to the main command tent, already packed when we arrived. The moment I stepped inside, every gaze turned toward me. They looked me over from head to toe, then one by one, their eyes went red.

Finneas looked especially close to tears.

“Well done, Laila,” Prince Vance said. His eyes were bright, almost blazing.

“As expected of the Conlay bloodline!”

“That’s incredible. My first battle was nowhere near that clean. I threw up afterward.”

“General Conlay truly raised an exceptional daughter.”
