Chapter 46 Battle of the Mountain Ridges

With the medical camp now running smoothly, Juleios decided to assign Xilos, his trusted guard captain, to oversee its operations temporarily. Xilos, known for his calm demeanor and sharp mind, was someone Juleios intended to cultivate as a key aide. Asking him to oversee a medical camp felt like an underutilization of his abilities, but for now, there was no better candidate. Juleios resolved to find a more fitting role for him in the future.

By the time Juleios returned to his command tent, the sky was painted in hues of orange and purple as dusk settled over the camp. The air carried the faint aroma of smoke from campfires as soldiers prepared for their evening meals. Some laughed, others sat silently, reflecting on the battles fought and those still to come.
