Chapter 828: The Truth Unravels
The battle continued.
Yet somehow, around Victoria, everything felt strangely distant.
She moved away from the bodies surrounding her, stepping over fallen warriors without sparing them a glance.
Her heart pounded violently in her chest but she forced herself to keep moving.
She could still fix this.
She had to.
Then she paused.
Someone stood in front of her.
Victoria slowly lifted her head and locked eyes with blue orbs staring directly back at her.
Eyes she would know anywhere.
Sophia.
For a moment, Victoria simply stared.
How?
Sophia had been fighting with the son of Alaric not long ago.
Victoria looked past her.
There he was still fighting several warriors farther away.
Victoria didn't bother learning his name.
To her, he was nothing more than an obstacle that would eventually fall.
Her attention returned to Sophia.
A thought immediately entered her mind.
The man had been influencing her daughter.
Yes.
That had to be it.
