Seventh Realm…
Two more days have passed since the lockdown was lifted. Finally, the situation ca under control, but the financial damage had already occurred to the people and to the royal family.
The arrival of hundred thousand soldiers from nine realms associations brought peace and security to the people. The na Lord Loki, the commander of hundred thousand soldiers, was spreading far and wide in the realm.
Since the first day, Lord Loki was trying his best to find out any clues related to the prison break of Royal prison. He observed all the underground tunnels and area around the Royal prison. He also began reading the nas of the people who visited the Royal family and area around the prison in recent tis.
He put more than 30,000 soldiers in gathering information in the capital itself, rather than searching like headless soldiers in every ho and village. The actions of Lord Loki impressed many people as their lives ca to normal with his arrival.
But already the prison master and responsible wizards for the escape of criminals were sentenced with severe punishnts as they failed in their duty.
On the other hand, Queen Soya was trying hard to find ti to take Kent for a tour around the forbidden army, fire mountains, and ancestor hall. But due to the unrest in the capital city, the Emperor was occupied and a part of the forbidden army was taking part in the operation for the missing prisoners.
As the realm slowly ca to life with morning sun, soldiers marched, whispering rumours of the new commander, Lord Loki.

In the vast Frost Palace gardens, surrounded by tranquil herbs and flowers, Kent sat in deep ditation on top of the Eternal Sacred Lotus of Milk Sea.
A quick, soft shuffle of footsteps broke the silence, and Kent's eyelids fluttered open. Lily stood before him, her face a mixture of excitent and urgency.
"Kent, all the 20,000 Supre Mages are assembled in the training grounds. They're waiting for your command." She said, a little breathless,
Kent's lips curled into a faint, satisfied smile. "Good, not a single one missing, Tell them to continue practising the formations I assigned. I'll be testing each of them in personal combat this evening. In the anti, I want you to lead them and watch for any weaknesses. They need to be flawless for the Trident Summit."
A flicker of hesitation crossed Lily's face. She lingered, clearly wanting to say more. Kent raised an eyebrow.
"Is sothing else the matter?" he asked.
"I called a 9th ranked healer to treat my elder sister. She was suffering from unstable cultivation. If I don't treat her soon, her situation will turn more severe and complicated. And it is important for to oversee the treatnt." Lilly replied with a serious face.
"Seriously… you have a sister too… I never t your sister. Where is she hiding all these days? What's her na?" Kent asked as he guessed that the elder sister might be Thea.
"Her na is Thea. She mostly stays in her room and won't co out. It is no surprise that you still haven't t her. One more surprising thing is that she is the one who asked to take you as my fake husband to break the marriage agreent with the Lin family." Lilly replied with a happy face.
"Ohh… really. Then I need to et your sister as soon as possible and thank her dearly." Kent replied in the most sarcastic way possible without making it obvious.
The na Thea already made him realise that he is going to see his promised bride and childhood wifey. The mories of living with Thea surfaced in his mind.
"Hmmm… if you really wish to et her, I won't say no. But what about the wizards in the training grounds?" Lily asked with a questioning look.
Kent waved a hand dismissively. "Send a servant to tell them I'll join them this evening. In the anti, I have a feeling that eting your sister may turn out to be equally important."
As he rose from his lotus position, a sense of anticipation flickered in his chest. He wondered how Thea would react to him, given all that had transpired between them since their separation. He really wants to see her reaction now.

Elsewhere, the palace grounds of the
'Stick family'..
.
Princess Sony, overseeing the frantic repair efforts, was visibly exhausted, her normally elegant appearance stained by the strain of recent days. She had spent hours ticulously organising resources, hoping to minimise the economic damage caused by the lockdown.
A group of armoured guards approached her, and she turned to face them, her face set in a mask of intense focus. Explore stories on My Virtual Library Empire
"My Lady, we have located Young Master Kent. He is currently residing in the Frost family's palace and has called a gathering of his 20,000 Supre Mages for training."
Princess Sony's expression darkened, her eyes narrowing with frustration. She clenched her fists, exasperated by their report.
"Idiots!" she snapped, kicking the guard in front with surprising force. "Even children could have gathered this information. I didn't ask for his current location—I asked where he had disappeared to during those missing days. How am I supposed to anticipate his next move if you don't bring anything useful?"
The guards cowered, but she dismissed them with an impatient wave of her hand. "Go kneel before the Royal Palace gates for ten days," she ordered coldly. "And don't ever show your faces to again."
Her command was t with obedient silence as the guards ran away, and Sony's irritation grew as she thought more about Kent.

Middle of Night…
In a dimly lit command tent on the outskirts of the capital city, Lord Loki sat pouring over several reports detailing the status of the capital.
"God… whoever this culprit is, he is definitely a powerful strategist. Out of all plans, he chose the best one. Definitely he took years of ti to execute this plan of prison break." Lord Loki muttered while staring at the reports sent by soldiers.
As he sifted through the docunts, one of his personal guards entered, bowing deeply.
"My lord, we've found unusual activity at one of the teleportation gates in the Doom Nation. It's possible that this gate was used to send criminals out of the realm."
Lord Loki's face remained calm, though his eyes sharpened. "Then why are you still standing here?" he growled. "Prepare the teleportation arrays. I want to et the owner of this gate personally."
As the guard hurried to make the arrangents, Loki donned his armour, his mind already racing. He had sensed from the start that the prison break had been no re act of rebellion. But now he had a lead, a thread to follow.
