“Are they all training at the base now?” King Theron asked as he sat upon his throne, turning to one of his personal guards.
“Yes, Your Majesty. They’ve been training since morning, as you ordered,” the guard replied.
“Good. I will go and see them now.”
King Theron rose from his seat and walked toward the camp where his soldiers were drilling. For the past five years he had worked to rebuild his strength, recruiting new warriors from his lands to replenish Aerondale’s forces. He was determined to crush the Kingdom of Vynoria and avenge the defeat he had suffered.
When King Theron reached the training ground, he was greeted by lines of soldiers practicing relentlessly, archery, swordplay, and even techniques of inner energy. Each man and woman moved with focus, performing drills assigned by their commanders.

The True Power
Yet, after defeating the monster, there was still another trial they had to face.“It seems we must go through that door, Avenya.”Calen Storm pointed to a door a few meters ahead. He was certain something awaited him there, something deeply tied to himself.Avenya once again grasped her father’s hand tightly, giving him courage.“It’s alright, Father. We will face it together. Earlier, we already defeated your fear, the monster. I believe that whatever lies ahead, we will overcome it too.”Hearing his daughter’s words, Calen smiled and nodded. Together, they slowly walked toward the door, hearts steady with resolve.When they reached it, the door swung open by itself, and they stepped inside.The room was suddenly pitch dark, as though they had been struck blind. They could see nothing, only suffocating blackness, heavy air, and limited breath. If their hands had parted, it would have been nearly impossible to find each other again. Yet they did not speak, staying alert, for danger c
Entering The Realm of Spirits
Calen Storm and Avenya were directed to go to an ancient temple, where they would perform the ritual.Once inside the temple, Calen looked intently at Avenya.“Are you sure you want to go through with all of this with your father, Avenya? I’m afraid something terrible might happen to you. If that happens, I will never be able to forgive myself.”Doubt still gripped Calen’s heart, for he feared that Avenya would struggle to control her power and end up hurting herself.“Father, everything will be fine. Come on, we must begin the ritual and complete it properly.”Avenya tried to encourage him and give him strength. The little girl had learned so much over time. Beneath her sweet and adorable face, she had trained herself to think with maturity.“You must sit facing each other, then hold hands. Focus your attention and remain concentrated. Pay no heed to what is around you, focus only on yourselves.”Elira Tharstanis gave instructions to Calen and Avenya, guiding them through the ritual.
The Collapse of Faith
In the end, Larry also failed to find Calen’s sword. He admitted it to Calen with a sorrowful expression.“I am sorry, I couldn’t find your sword. It seems... your sword has truly disappeared.”Calen kept staring at Larry for a moment, then slowly nodded.“Yes, I have also searched every corner of this house, but I couldn’t find it anywhere either. Perhaps someone stumbled upon it and took it, yet I have no evidence of that.”But those words made Larry glance at him more deeply. Calen’s gaze toward him had changed, though the man did not voice it out loud.“You should rest. I will also sleep in Avenya’s room tonight, to keep her company.”After saying that, Calen entered Avenya’s room and lay down beside her. He gazed at his daughter’s face intently, with an expression filled with unspoken weight.“Not even a day here, and so many troubles already arise. Whatever happens, I pray I can still protect you from every danger, my daughter,” he whispered in his heart.That night, Calen tried
The Stolen Sword
“How do we get inside the house now, Larry?”“Come here, follow me. You can enter through the gap I created in the energy barrier. But please be careful, because Calen Storm is near the house,” Larry replied with full confidence.“Alright.”After that, all the Shadow Troops dismounted from their horses and stepped into the area where Calen Storm and Avenya’s new residence stood, protected by the layered shield. However, since Larry had created a breach in the barrier, he could lead Aerondale’s shadow warriors inside to carry out their mission.“Where is the sword?” asked the commander.“It’s inside the house. Just search within, I’m certain you’ll find it there. I’ll stay outside to watch Calen Storm’s movements and make sure he doesn’t enter or interfere with your task. He’s busy training with his daughter, so his attention won’t be di

The Protective Energy Shield
“Very well, we will trust your words. But if you break that promise, then we ourselves will drag Princess Avenya out of the Kingdom of Vynoria.”The people issued their threat to Calen Storm and Elara Wynn, warning them of the consequences should they betray their oath.“We will never betray our own people. Believe me, I will take my daughter away from here as soon as possible,” Calen Storm replied with firm conviction.With that promise, the crowd dispersed from the palace grounds, carrying with them the words Calen had given.Elara Wynn turned to him with eyes filled with intensity. “Are you certain of what you just said? You would take Avenya from the palace and live with her?”What Calen had told the people left Elara astonished. He had never mentioned any such house before, so she needed an explanation from her husband.“Let’s go inside. It’s better we speak within, Elara,” Calen replied, not answering directly. Too many soldiers and servants still watched them outside.“Very wel
