The Storm’s Eye had vanished.
Amy and Yacouba could hardly believe their eyes.
Yet, the Storm’s Eye was indeed gone.
And as the Storm’s Eye disappeared, the biting cold that had permeated the air seemed to lessen significantly.
The thick snowflakes that had been dancing in the sky also began to dwindle in size.
The fog that surrounded them also seemed to lift a great deal.
It felt as if the heavens and earth had opened up, bringing much more light to the world.
A look of incredulity was plastered on everyone’s faces.
After a long moment, Amy came back to her senses and looked at Gilmore, asking, “Mr. Reed, how did the Storm’s Eye just disappear?”
Gilmore replied, “The Storm’s Eye hasn’t disappeared.
“It’s simply been blocked by thousands of ice mountains.
–“But the swallowing power of the Storm’s Eye is terribly formidable. Even if thousands of ice mountains have temporarily
blocked it, in a year’s time, these ice mountains will be digested completely.
“By then, the Storm’s Eye will reappear.”
Indeed, the Storm’s Eye hadn’t vanished for good.
And through his God’s Eye, Gilmore discovered that the Storm’s Eye was merely an entrance to a hidden realm within the Ice Mountains.
This secret realm was almost sealed by the mysterious and grand formation.
The secret realm inside was as vast as another Ice Mountains,
Moreover, the temperature of this secret realm was more than ten times colder than the Ice Mountains outside.
This explained why the Storm’s Eye had unleashed such a terrifying cold stream.
Within this hidden realm, there lay secrets unknown to the world.
Gilmore knew that even if he ventured in, he couldn’t guarantee everyone’s safety.
Therefore, Gilmore chose to block the Storm’s Eye with the ice mountains of the Ice Mountains range.
Rather than leading everyone into the hidden realm through the Storm’s Eye.
Upon hearing that the Storm’s Eye would reappear. Amy, looking worried, said to Gilmore, “Mr. Reed, isn’t there a way to permanently seal off this Storm’s Eye?”
Gilmore solemnly said to Amy, “At least for now, we can’t permanently block the Storm’s Eye.
“However, before the Storm’s Eye reemerges in a year. I’ll come up with a way to completely seal it off

Amy’s expression was visibly relaxed
Since Gilmore would find a way to seal the Storm’s Eye before it could open again.
This undeniably gave her a glimmer of hope.
And she was full of confidence in Gilmore.

Gilmore had recently performed a supernatural skill by moving thousands of ice mountains in the Ice Mountains to block the Storm’s Eye.
To Amy, it seemed as though Gilmore was all–powerful, akin to a god.
So when Gilmore said he could find a way to permanently block the Storm’s Eye.
Amy believed hirm without a shadow of a doubt.
A smile bloomed on Amy’s face as she said to Gilmore, “Mr. Reed, thank you for shielding our Golden Tower Empire from the Storm’s Eye.
“You’ve spared all the citizens of Golden Tower Empire from death, injury, and disaster.
“You are a benefactor to the Willock family, and to all the people of Golden Tower Empire.”
Gilmore, however, simply smiled lightly. “Let’s not talk about benefactors. I don’t fancy being thanked day in and day out, it’s rather exhausting.
“If I may, I’d much prefer to be your friend. It’s much more relaxing.”
Princess Amy and General Yacouba exchanged looks, clearly respecting Gilmore all the more for not basking in his own glory,
Thus, Amy said to Gilmore, “Mr. Reed, we’ve already been friends.”
“Ah, friends, that’s good. I don’t care for being anyone’s savior, Gilmore said, content.
Amy then said, “If that’s how you feel, Mr. Reed, then I’ll regard you as my most important friend, not a benefactor.”
Gilmore chuckled. “Agreed, let’s leave it at that.”
Cilmore then turned to Amy and General Yacouba, The Storm’s Eye in the Ice Mountains is now sealed.
“We had finished our work in the Ice Mountains. We can go back to Fensville now.”
Suddenly, Amy remembered something and asked Gilmore, “Right, Mr. Reed, are we heading back without offering sacrifices to the Ice God?
&face took on an
amused expression. Tve blocked the Storm’s Eye. Even if the Ice God does exist, which is not certain, by doing this, we’ve surely angered him.
“Do you really think our sacrifices would still be welcome?”
Hearing this. Amy couldn’t help but think it made sense.
She replied to Gilmore, “You’re right, Mr. Reed. By sealing the Storm’s Eye, we’ve essentially defied the Ice God.
“Then why bother with a ceremony? Let’s just head back to Fensville”
Moreover, Amy was also very worried about her father in the Ferrville. She was e
eager to retum home.

Gilmore chuckled “Glad you get it,
“But there’s rio need to rush back to the Ice Mountains this time.
“We’ll take the scenic route, enjoy the journey. Let the imperial preceptor hatch his plot. That way, when we return, we can catch a traitor red–handed.”
Although Amy was eager to know if her father was safe, she still listened to Gilmore’s words,
She also felt that it made sense.
The imperial preceptor had long harbored rebellious intentions, and if they returned too soon, they might miss the chance to catch him in the act.
Better to let imperial preceptor’s treachery come to light, so they could justifiably take him down.
So, Gilmore and his companions didn’t rush on their way back to Fensville.
Instead, they took their time, leisurely admiring the snowscape of the Ice Mountains as they made their way back to Fensville
At the residence of the imperial preceptor.
The imperial preceptor sat on a grand chair in the hall, sipping coffee.
There were about twenty or thirty people sitting on chairs on both sides of the hall.
Among the twenty to thirty people, there were ministers wearing black veiled hats and imperial uniforms, as well as mighty generals in armor.
They sat down in a hall.
‘Esteemed lords and generals, please, enjoy your coffee,” the imperial preceptor said with a benign smile, addressing all the officials and generals in the hall.
They politely lifted their coffee in response. “To your health, imperial preceptor”
Everyone then tasted the coffee.
After drinking the coffee, the imperial preceptor looked at the ministers and generals and said, “My lords, you should know why I invited you here today?”
An elder official, his hair frosted with age, spoke, “Although we have some idea, we still wish to hear it from you, imperial preceptor. The Imperial Preceptor nodded. “Okay, I’ll tell you.”
His expression became solemn. He looked at the crowd and said, “My lords, we are willing to follow our Imperial Preceptor to the death.
“The current emperor, Huston, was mediocre, and he did not have any sons. He only had one princess, Amy
“How could a grand empire allow a woman to rule over the world? Even we men had to be subservient to a kind of humiliation was that?

“Now, the heavens have sent this snow calamity, clearly outraged at our current emperor’s ineptitude. The celestial powers cannot bear to watch the Golden Tower Empire led by a do–nothing ruler.
“He couldn’t bear to see a woman become the future emperor.
“The snow disaster wreaking havoc in the Golden Tower Empire was a punishment given by the heavens to the cument

emperor Huston.
“As for overthrowing the throne of the Willock family, it’s God’s will
“If the Imperial Preceptor becomes the new Emperor of the Golden Tower Empire, I’ll treat you well. You’ll be the founding fathers of the new empire.
“The Imperial Preceptor can promise you that after you gain control of the empire, you will be granted the title of King
“My lords, do you have anything else to say?”
At this juncture, the imperial preceptor, Levi, let his gaze drift across the faces of the assembled officials and generals.
Yes, these ministers and generals were all Imperial Preceptor Levi’s trusted subordinates who had been secretly bribed and roped in
Most were influential ministers in the court, with several holding key positions, and while the generals present couldn’t match the status of the General Yacouba, they nonetheless wielded considerable influence within the military ranks.
Many of them bore no love for General Yacouba, resenting the fact that he overshadowed them.
In addition, the Imperial Preceptor tried to sow dissension between them and secretly roped them in to join the Imperial Preceptor’s camp.
It could be said that these generals were hostile towards Yacouba, as well as the royal family that valued the Godly Mr. Perris.
As for the ministers, their allegiance was swayed by the prevailing winds. They clearly saw the sweeping power of the imperial preceptor within the court. It was so formidable that even Huston himself seemed unable to rein him in.
With the aging Huston having only a single daughter, Amy.
They believed that once Huston passed, Amy stood no chance of ascending to the throne.
The powerful Imperial Preceptor was definitely the next Emperor, and Princess Amy was very likely to die in the competition for the throne at a young age.
It was precisely because they’d seen all of this clearly that these courtiers who sought to curry favor with the country joined he Imperial Preceptor’s camp and started stealing the country and usurping
the throne.
When the ministers and generals heard that the Imperial Preceptor would become the new emperor of the Golden Tower Empire, they would be conferred the title of king.
Their eyes lit up with joy.
In the Golden Tower Empire where only the descendants of the Willock family were conferred the title of king, this was something that ministers and generals did not dare to imagine. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
This was something that they had dreamed of achieving.
Therefore, the Imperial Preceptor’s promise made them indescribably excited.
Thus, without hesitation, the ministers and generals said to Levi “We have nothing to add, imperial preceptor. We will follow your lead in all things.
The Willock family has declined, the Golden Tower Empire is decaying. The snow disaster is just the latest in a string of calamities befalling the common folk, signaling that it’s time for the Willock family to relinquish their imperial grip.
“You, imperial preceptor, are the chosen one.
