It is the end of the civil war and it has been won because of Chris. As a reward, the young king, Edik Secardo, appointed Chris as the Duke of the Estates of Savnakd and Vangtess. In the next scene, Chris is sitting next to his teammates who were all congratulating him.
Chris was discussing with them all the work that needed to be done when he was interrupted by Taekeel who said that there are scars on his daughter’s face. Chris stammered out that it had nothing to do with him but Taekeel dragged him out any way to give him a piece of his mind.
The next scene shows Chris in front of the recruits with his teammate. His face is injured because of Taekeel. He asked if the recruits have received any basic training yet to which the teammate replied in the affirmative. Chris shouted to the recruits that it was time for their first mission.
He told them all to grab a shovel and assemble. They were to find a treasure. The recruits all start digging when suddenly the Viscount of Gloucester confronted Chris and demanded to know why he was encroaching on other people’s territory.
Chris assured the Viscount that he will be provided with better, farmable land but the Viscount simply got even angrier. Suddenly, Chris heard a commotion among the recruits and said that they had already found the treasure. Two recruits were fighting with each other.
The fighting got so intense that they were about to kill each other when Chris intervened with the help of Digo. The two recruits were brainwashed by something. It was an evil artifact.
