Death's Daughter and the Ebony Blade (Manga) Volume 9

The Royal Army may have won the north, but the war rages on. With the Second Legion in grave peril, Olivia agrees to ride to their rescue—even though she’d really rather hole up in the library for personal research. Because the rest of the Seventh Legion is still recovering from the battle with the Crimson Knights, Olivia, Claudia, and Ashton have to make do with a hastily assembled militia. Between Olivia’s terrifying powers and Ashton’s ingenuity, they quickly whip the motley band into shape, but will these efforts prove sufficient when the enemy awaiting them is the formidable Helios Knights? As battle looms, Ashton concocts a daring deception, but will the imperials take the bait?
