Location- Southern Region, Blossom District, Sky Blossom City, Dungeon Highway, Barren Lands

With the ice block encapsulating the cryo-sleeping boy in one arm, Colleen briskly issued orders before turning to leave. "Lorenzo, I need you to investigate this Jill character the boy spoke with earlier. She seems to be affiliated with Morningstar University and is the one who provided the boy with the knowledge on how to operate and upkeep the dungeon relocation device. I want to know the extent of their relationship and how a mere high schooler from a third-tier city is connected to someone at such a prestigious institution."

"Yes, your highness," Lorenzo planned to do just that without Colleen reminding him to.

Their previous assumption was that they were the sole refuge the boy could seek in times of distress, but the emergence of Jill from Morningstar University shattered that notion. Now, the boy had other avenues to explore when faced with a dire situation. This revelation meant that the Southern Royal family could no longer retain complete control over the boy's fate. Upon realizing this, Lorenzo and Colleen felt as though they had won a billion-dollar lottery only to have to split the prize with a stranger, which was an unpleasant feeling.

…

"Did Anna's grandma just attack me? From the looks of how she only put my body in a cryosleep, she doesn't seem to mean harm. Then what does she mean by this? Fuck, does she plan on kidnapping me?" I cussed trapped inside my calamity soul gem. Being frozen into an ice block by Anna's grandma, my body was instantly frozen and was forcefully put under cryosleep but my consciousness however stayed awake as it was protected by the protective covering of his calamity soul gem.

I wanted to eavesdrop on Anna's grandma, Lorenzo, and Ann from within my calamity soul gem but whenever my consciousness tried to extend its mental strength out of the calamity soul gem to check what was happening outside, the extended mental strength would instantly get frozen by the First Lady's powers.

Since Anna's grandma's deadly rule power could freeze mental strength, I did not dare to rashly try and shift my consciousness from my current calamity soul gem to one of the pseudo calamity soul gems that I hid in the outskirts of the sky blossom city fearing that my consciousness would be instantly frozen as soon as it leaves the confines of the calamity soul gem. As a result, I was trapped in my calamity soul gem even if I had managed to keep my consciousness awake.

Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Southern Royal Palace, Guest Palace

"Where the heck am I?" I couldn't help but exclaim as my eyes fluttered open once the power keeping my body under deep cryosleep vanished and it bore witness to an extravagantly adorned bedroom that left me in awe.

Soon a cold voice answered me, "You are inside the guest palace of the Southern Royal family."

I did not have to search hard for the source of those words because they came from my bedside. It was a lady dressed in a man's attire. Gauging her negligent three sizes I asked, "Who are you? Where's Ann?"

"I am Aria Art, your personal bodyguard. Her Highness Ann is helping her majesty, the Emperess, with the affairs of the royal court," Aria answered the boy. Her cold demeanor seemed to intensify upon hearing the boy addressing her highness Ann casually.

"Aria Art?" I exclaimed hearing the girl's name because she was not just anybody but one of the most famous southern royal children with the purest royal unparalleled bloodline after Anna.

Aria was considered to be the next Anna in terms of exceptional talent but not in terms of her party tendencies. Aria was 17 years old this year and already a peak card lord. In the vision seen by Clown Mask, Aria earned herself a reputation in the war between the Southern Royal family and the Nothern Royal family which was secretly being instigated by Matron and the Paw clan.

If I am not wrong, Aria was Lorenzo's other granddaughter born to his daughter who was married to a prominent family in the southern capital. Aria happens to take more after Lorenzo's wife unlike Luna who happens to take after him. Since they did not have much in common Lorenzo was not so close with Aria. Not to mention Aria did not belong to the Lorn family but belonged to the Art family.

What was Lorenzo thinking by making his granddaughter my personal bodyguard, what the fuck is he up to? I am undefeated under the card overlord realm, what use could I possibly have for a card lord realm bodyguard? Was this a honey trap set up by him? That old man couldn't possibly use his granddaughter as bait, right? Well, it was Lorenzo I am talking about here. Besides, for a seventeen-year-old, Aria's figure was underdeveloped, she could not possibly serve as a honey trap. Then was it because we were of the same age group and he hoped we could get along?

"Do you know me?" Aria asked seeing the boy's reaction.

"Yes, I do," I did not bother to lie or go into details about how I knew Aria. Instead, I asked her, "Where is Anna?"

"Her Highness Anna is being trained by the Field Marshal," Aria's expression turned frosty seeing the boy continue to be rude and casually address the southern emperor.

"Then what about Lorenzo?" I asked Aria in frustration unable to find anyone to vent the anger buried in my heart for being moved to the southern royal palace without my consent.

"Minster Lorenzo has retreated to his lab, it is unclear when he will be free in the foreseeable future," Aria addressed Lorenzo and his wife as Minster and Field Marshal, showing how distant she was from them despite being their granddaughter. Making it clear that Aria was considered to be part of the Art Family than the Lorn Family.

"Fuck!" I cussed aloud understanding that everyone involved in my abduction was avoiding me on purpose. So that they did not have to give me an explanation for why they moved me to the southern royal palace without my consent. This also meant that I would not get to vent my anger on them. So I could only shout in frustration.

"Master Wyatt, please watch your language," Aria frowned hearing the boy brazenly cuss out loud.

"Summon monster orb," Ignoring Aria I summoned the monster ord and then activated it, "Come out Stone Viltronian."

If Anna's grandma, Lorenzo, and Ann think that they can get away with what they did by avoiding me, they have another thing coming.

"..." Seeing the boy summon an A-rank monster Aria observed the boy and his monster on high alert. She tried to deduce what the boy was up to by summoning an A-rank monster and what happened next only confused her further.

"Aria, tell Ann that if she wants to meet me she can find me at my warehouse in the sky blossom city," I asked Aria to deliver Ann a message and without waiting for her reply I order Stone Viltronian, " Use Stone Rule - Stone Coffin."

The target of the attack was not Aria but myself. Soon the Stone Viltronian's body glowed with a brown hue before morphing into a huge stone coffin and enclosing me within it.

Inside the stone coffin, leaving my intact body in the coffin I transferred my mutated soul to one of my pseudo calamity soul gems that I hid on the outskirts of the Sky Blossom city. This way I could return to my body in the stone coffin at the guest palace of the southern royal palace anytime I wanted to. I planned to use my pseudo-calamity soul gems as a replacement for the lack of teleportation cards in my arsenal.

"WTF," seeing the boy enclose himself inside a stone coffin Aria freaked out unclear if the boy was trying to harm himself. But soon she felt the life force within the stone coffin vanish. She was supposed to be the boy's bodyguard, what the fuck was she supposed to do in this situation?

As Aria was freaking out, three figures appeared in the bedroom. Seeing them Aria hurriedly knelt and greeted, "Your Highness."

The boy was correct about Lorenzo, Anna's grandma, and Ann not being busy with their affairs but avoiding him. If they do not see the boy they would not have to be in the awkward situation of explaining to him why they did what they did. And once the boy calms down then they planned to meet him. But they never guessed that he would do something drastic.

"What kind of ability is this I can feel his presence inside the stone coffin but it doesn't have a life force," Lorenzo mumbled in confusion ignoring Aria as he approached the stone coffin to take a closer look.
