[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 83. Letter From Emilio
On top of the solid fortress walls, Ariana stood and gazed out at the vast horizon. After their relentless fight, they finally had a chance to rest again. Since yesterday, the enemy no longer appeared and tried to break through their last defense. The empty land that was originally a battlefield, looks more lonely and quiet now. The corpses of the fallen soldiers had also been cleaned up so that Ariana could only see the bloodstains that remained on the empty land in front of her.When Ariana saw the red color that colored the vast land, her vision involuntarily looked a little blurry. Among all the bloodstains, there was the blood of the Sigmund Kingdom soldiers who died under her orders. No matter how hard Ariana tried to protect everyone, she would still lose some great soldiers in the end. To those who had put their trust in Ariana, the girl could only repay their sacrifice with a false victory. So far, they have only been able to survive, without being able to strike back at the

After everyone left the room, Ariana tried hard to calm her emotions again. From what she knows, Prince Raoul didn't seem to have been caught until now.

Ariana knew she needed further details if she were to make any further plans.For the moment, Ariana abandoned that thought to look at the sealed letter she just got.

Ariana rubbed her eyes a few times as she got up and stood on top of an endless pool of blood. No matter where Ariana looked, she only saw red all over the place. An uneasy feeling gripped her heart, as the girl tried to move from her still position.“Ugh!”Ariana was just about to take a step, and she already fell because something grabbed one of her legs. When Ariana looked back, she saw that it was someone's hand that was holding her back. Fear gripped the girl when she saw that the one who had just grabbed her leg was her grandfather, who had died on the battlefield.“Aria, where do you want to go? Our place is here. No matter what you do, reality won't change that easily. Look, that effort of yours has wasted countless innocent lives once again.”When Ariana followed the direction her grandfather pointed, she saw mountains of corpses of soldiers who had fallen on the battlefield. Among them, Ariana could even see some people she knew. Tears started to roll down the girl's cheeks,

Because they knew, Valencia must be sad that Ariana dismissed her and left her at the border.“Valencia, Lady Aria will definitely be fine. We have also been given an important order by Lady Aria. All we can do now is do our best and don't disappoint Lady Aria again.”“I didn't mean to disappoint her, Brother Cale. I just-”Valencia muttered in frustration as Cale attempted to comfort her.

Even Ariana, who she thought would understand, thoroughly refused to listen to her reasoning this time.For some reason, Valencia had a bad feeling ever since Ariana sa

A week had passed since Ariana began her journey together with Duke Morgan and the others. Since the treaty matter was urgent, if they didn't need to rest, the group continued to walk through the various terrains of the Sigmund Kingdom. Ariana gauged that if they maintained their current pace, in another two weeks they might arrive in the capital.Throughout their journey, neither Ariana nor Duke Morgan would speak if what they had to talk about wasn't significant. Ariana only spoke whenever she had to arrange accommodation for Duke Morgan, while Duke Morgan only spoke to Ariana whenever he had to answer the girl's words.

It's unfortunate to see two kingdoms that used to have good relations have to be enemies because of this war.But recently, Ariana sensed that something was different about their group.

But what they find is a fight that kills everyone tasked with getting rid of Ariana. Ariana's whereabouts can't be found anywhere. But from the traces of blood that could be seen from the swords of the dead, they could guess that Ariana had not only suffered minor injuries after fighting ten soldiers alone.“Your Highness, should we look for the girl's whereabouts first?”Duke Morgan snorted in disdain when he heard the advice of one of the soldiers.
