Victory Celebration in the Kingdom
With the Ice Queen defeated, the Kingdom celebrates its victory.
The King hosts a grand feast, where the people sing, dance, and rejoice.
As a token of gratitude, the King bestows the Badge of Bravery upon each Immortal.
King (smiling): "You have saved my people from an eternal winter. For that, we are forever in your debt."
The Prince and the citizens bow, expressing their deep appreciation.
The Immortals accept the honor, feeling a sense of accomplishment.
After a long night of celebration, everyone goes to rest.
Except for L.

The Mysterious Kidnappers
As L stands on a high balcony, watching over the Kingdom, a strange presence fills the air.
From the shadows, two humanoid figures appear.
They have glowing blue bodies, featureless faces, and move like ghosts.
L narrows his eyes.
Without hesitation, the two figures grab Crycelia, who is fast asleep, and carry her away.
As they attempt to escape, they suddenly come face-to-face with L.
One of the blue beings (in shock): "This presence… He knows everything."
L simply stands there, arms crossed.
Instead of stopping them, he watches them carefully and then steps aside.
L (calmly): "Go."
The two figures hesitate for a moment but then quickly rush away, vanishing into the night.
L smirks to himself.
L (thinking): "Just as I expected… This is only the beginning."

The Next Morning – The King's Explanation
At dawn, panic spreads as the Kingdom realizes Crycelia is missing.
A note is found, addressed to the King.
The King reads it carefully, then smiles.
King (chuckling): "No need to worry, my friends. This is not a big deal."
Everyone looks confused.
The Prince sighs in relief.
Prince: "It seems our old allies from the Eastern Kingdom have taken her. It is their way of calling for help."
The King nods.
King: "They are a shy people and do not openly seek aid. Instead, they use these tactics to test the courage of those they call upon. This means they need us."
Everyone lets out a sigh of relief.
Lisa (crossing her arms): "So we're not dealing with real kidnappers? That's a relief."
Gray (grinning): "I was ready to crush them, but I guess this is just another adventure."
Flair (excited): "Then let's go already! The East awaits!"
The King nods approvingly.
King: "Prepare yourselves. Our next journey takes us to the Eastern Kingdom—beyond the frozen lands, to a place of great mystery."

The Journey to the East Begins
With their next destination set, the Immortals prepare for a new adventure.
They gather supplies, strengthen their weapons, and get ready to face whatever awaits them.
L, standing at the edge of the Kingdom, looks towards the East.
L (thinking): "This is only the beginning… Something far greater lies ahead."
