Chapter 909 After Sebastian left, Lawrence turned to his father. 'Dad, no matter what it takes, we must stop Kevin." Edwin nodded. "Don't worry. I won't let General Sullivan fall into such an unjust situation." Even if it meant losing his noble title, there were sthings and people Edwin would protect with everything he had. His ancestors had been military officers, and they had earned the title of marquis on the battlefield. If he had to give up his title to protect Dominic, Edwin believed his ancestors would understand and not fault him. Edwin wasn't confident he could convince Kevin. The young man had always been strong-willed and had learned early on to plan for his future. Unfortunately, luck had never been on his side. Every tsomething important cup, Kevin would either fall ill or something would happen to prevent him from making a nfor himself. For years, Kevin was nothing more than a low-ranking guard in the crown prince's personal guard unit. Even after Salvador's ascension, when he was placed in the Mystic Army and later made part of the Crown Guard, he still hadn't risen much in rank. His chance to go to Victory Pass only cbecause Galen had recommended him to lan.

Kevin had always wanted to stand out. Now that he had such an opportunity, he wasn't going to let it slip away easily.

After Sebastian left Elderglen Estate, he sent word to Hell Monarch Estate.

However, Rafael wasn't too concerned. He knew Kevin was an upright person, though lacking in luck. He suspected that Kevin was internally struggling with whether or not to speak out. If Edwin talked to him, it was highly likely that he would remain silent.

Moreover, if Kevin truly wanted to use the situation to advance, it would make more sense for him to be open with Felix, who was from the Quinton family and related to Logan, a prince consort. What they could offer Kevin in terms of benefits would far outweigh what he could gain from simply reporting the matter.

Having spent so many years beside the king, Kevin should understand him well. While Salvador might temporarily praise or promote him, the cost would be losing his trust.

Salvador feared powerful military officers and influential families, but as a man, he respected Dominic. He wouldn't want anyone stabbing the general in the back.

Rafael explained all this to Carissa, trying to reassure her.

"If Grandfather saw you like this, he'd only be worried. Don't stress yourself out too much. We're not fighting alone. Go out and listen. Ever since Commander Prince spoke up, there's been a lot of talk about your grandfather. Many people are speaking out on his behalf, and a lot of officials are supporting him. Even slower-ranking officials are discussing it in taverns," he said.

The minor officials, in contrast, weren't so cautious. Whenever they gathered for drinks, they spoke freely. Dominic had the people's favor-he was a hero in the hearts of many.

As the conversations turned to this hero, reminiscing about Dominic's youth and reflecting on his current state, people couldn't help but feel the poignancy of his aging years. This only added to the sense of tragedy and heroism, making their admiration even deeper.

As the days passed, the public discourse, which had initially been manageable, began to spiral out of control. As it gained momentum, people started voicing all kinds of opinions. Sbegan to suggest that Barrett, who had led the attack on the supply depot, should be held accountable for his actions, as should Aurora.

After all, Dominic had been incapacitated by an arrow and couldn't make decisions at that time. If anyone were to be questioned about the failure, it should be those who had been responsible for the operation, not just the marshal.

Barrett would certainly be held responsible, but there was also the matter of Wyatt. He had temporarily taken over as marshal after Dominic was injured by the arrow.

Stalked about how Wyatt had lost an arm while trying to save Barrett. His situation was already dire enough, having spent many years guarding Victory Pass, with no personal stake in the wealth and prestige of the capital. Despite losing an arm, he didn't return to the capital but continued to defend Victory Pass. Wasn't that something to be respected?

As talk turned to the Sullivan family, the conversation shifted to the Duke on of Northwatch and is x sons. After praising their deeds, many people were filled with contempt for Barrett and Aurora's actions. Aurora and Barrett found themselves caught in a whirlwind of criticism. People rallied against them. Everyone voiced their support for Dominic, condemning the actions that had led to his suffering.

All this overwhelming public opinion, which flowed like a great river, had started with Carissa She had merely set the ball rolling by having Alistair ban? Mi overhear her conversation with Barrett. After that, nobody from Hell Monarch Estate interfered. Rafael knew that once a spark was lit, it would quickly spread, becoming a wildfire.

Someone would step in soon enough.
