Chapter 1189
Apart from being a mentor, Violet had formed a small team with Alana, Leah, and the others. Together, they had
taken it upon themselves to track down rapists who had been causing trouble in the city.
At first, Violet had thought it would be a simple task: catch the culprits, force them to confess, and send them off
to the authorities. But when they arrived at the authorities, the culprits claimed they had only confessed
because they had been beaten up.
Alana had quietly approached the young women who had been victimized, hoping they might speak up. But one
by one, they denied that anything had happened. Seven turned them away as soon as they saw Alana or
anyone from her group.
Without any evidence to back up the claims of their crimes, the authorities had no choice but to release the
culprits..
Violet's frustration grew with every failed attempt. At times, she was filled with a murderous urge, and the
thought of dealing with the culprits in the sruthless manner she would have previously crossed her mind. In
the martial arts world, she would have simply taken care of it. herself and walked away unscathed.
But now, she was not acting in the capacity of someone from the martial arts world. Rafael was part of the
government, while Carissa controlled the Mystic Army. Violet couldn't afford to beca criminal.
Rounding up the men and sending them to the authorities was the most straightforward method Violet could
think of, but it was undeniably clumsy and didn’t seem to be working at all. She had worked tirelessly, only to
have it all be in vain. They hadn't been able to send a single culprit to jail.
So, she couldn't hide the frustration and anger in her eyes.
As the two women chatted for a while, Carissa offered swords of comfort, “Don’t be discouraged. At least
you've made them pay for it with a beating. They know you're watching them now and won't dare repeat their
actions.”
“How is a beating enough? | want them to be brought to justice,” Violet replied, her fist. pressed against her
temple as she tilted her head, clearly struggling with the situation.

shand keep it hidden.”
“So, we just let those animals get away with it?” Violet asked, her voice tinged with frustration. “Is there really
no other way?”
“Next time, if you can’t find evidence, don’t bother taking them to the authorities. Beat them harder. Break an
arm or a leg, or make sure they won't be able to walk again,” Carissa replied.
Violet's expression softened as she considered the idea. “That's actually not a bad plan.”

“pid all of you investigate those culprits thoroughly?” Carissa asked.
Violet immediately nodded, assuring her, “Don’t worry. We're being very thorough. We haven't unjustly accused
anyone. It’s just that the victims won’t cforward, and the methods we're using aren't exactly legal. The
authorities can’t do anything about them.”
She was feeling somewhat disheartened, having originally thought that once the culprits. confessed, the
authorities would handle it swiftly She hadn't realized that they needed. evidence and, even more crucially, the
victims* testimonies.
Carissa didn’t have any answers for her. The law had its strict processes which had to be followed.
The two women exchanged a look, their eyes filled with silent encouragement,
Rafael had stayed in the palace for a long time, and only left when the palace gates were about to close for the
night. As he left, the snow had started to fall. By the the arrived home, his cloak was heavy with soft, white
snowflakes.
Carissa helped him remove his cloak, shaking the snow off. “Have you eaten? Why so late tonight?”
He stood by the fire, warming his hands. “I had dinner with His Majesty. He plans to havequietly go to
Lunvale in a few days.”
Carissa was surprised. “He wants you to go personally? Why not send the Nightsteel Guard?”
“lan sent someone there already. They've made sdiscoveries, but they can’t investigate further. The people
they sent don’t have much martial arts skills,” Rafael replied.
Carissa understood immediately-the lack of skill or careful planning meant that rash probing could easily alert
the target. If they were discovered and the target quickly moved, any chance. of progress would be lost.
“How many people are you taking? When are you leaving?” she asked.
It was the 15th of December now; it would be two weeks until the New Year's celebration.

“I'll speak with Randall tomorrow and see what he knows. | plan to leave in three days. I'll be taking Dylan,
Travis, and a few of the household soldiers who've had proper martial arts training,” Rafael replied.
He wrapped his arms around her waist and gently added, “Don’t worry. I'll be careful. Nothing will go wrong.”
“Take Isaac with you,” Carissa suggested.
Rafael frowned slightly. “He’s been busy with the Ministry of Defense, working on the firearms project. Don’t
trouble him.”
