The three were taken to Mr. Victor's office. Mr. Victor looked up, his eyes narrowing as he noticed Dean. "Even the General's son is capable of treachery," he said, shaking his head in disgust. He turned to Josh, his expression cold and unforgiving. "Who sent you?" he demanded. Josh stood tall, his voice firm. "I wasn't sent here, sir. I came on my own." Mr. Victor raised an eyebrow. "Why?" he asked, his tone skeptical. Josh took a deep breath before answering. "I was escaping from the Shadow Syndicate, sir. They held me captive for 11 years, infecting me with the shadow disease in the name of experiments." Mr. Victor's expression didn't change. "That might be a good story, Josh, but you are a bigger threat than you think you are. Do you know what those markings that appeared on your body were?" “No, Sir,” Josh replied.

Please, Aurora, try to eat something."As soon as he left the room, Aurora sprang into action.

Dean and Peter couldn't believe their eyes at how beautiful and large the Kingdom looked. From the sellers selling different types of items, including magicians peddling fake or real magic potions, to the buyers who wanted to take everything at the market but had less money. The kingdom was a bustling hub of activity. Despite the chaos, the kingdom was breathtakingly beautiful.As they walked through the crowded market, a little girl rushed towards one of the soldiers, pleading for help. "Someone help me! That thief over there has seized the last silver coin I had to survive on," she exclaimed.The soldier looked at her with disdain. "Get out of my way, homeless girl. We've got slaves to trade. Unless you want to be part of them," he sneered, dismissing the girl's plea.The little hope in the girl's eyes vanished, and Dean thought to himself, "Even with their own kind, they can't treat them well? These guys are heartless."Dean looked at the soldiers, who were no longer paying atten

The carriage Carrying Xin Mara and her slave just arrived in front of a Grand Castle and the gate was opened to let them in.Dean was amazed at the beauty of the Castle. The Castle was so large that it was difficult to know where it started and where it ended.‘I must admit it's larger than my father's mansion.’ Dean thought to himself.Dean and Xin entered the Castle and headed into a big hall. A woman was seen sitting at the end of a long table." Greetings to the Duchess of Sun Kingdom. I have brought the slave boy as you demanded." Mara said as she bowed down.

Said the Duchess.With this said, Mara became confused because she thought that all the slaves were supposed to sleep at the servant's quarters outside of the main castle. But Mara could not disobey her mother

“The king of Sun Kingdom discovered that the king of OZZ had found one of the pieces of the Magic Crystal, and he wanted to have it, so he waged a war on the Kingdom of OZZ, which has lasted till today." "While the two kingdoms were fighting, I used my invisible power to sneak into the palace and I stole the crystal with the intention of returning it to the rightful owner someday, which is your father. But since you are here, I'll hand it to you.""A year after that, I was captured by slave traders from this kingdom and I was sold to the Duke, who is my late husband now," the Duchess said, her voice tinged with sadness. "Because of certain circumstances, we later got married, but the Duke is no more now."The Duchess stopped the story to take a deep breath. "Dean, as of today, you are no longer my slave, but you are my son," she said, her eyes shining with tears. "I will send you to school, and you can continue your life here with me. And you can go back to Earth when you wish to."
