Capítulo 123: The Hunt for Lord Cedric

Lord Cedric's name was now a curse on everyone's lips, a symbol of treachery that could no longer be ignored. His crimes, stealing children, trading them for power and favors, had ignited a fury across the land. With the empress and Prince Lucian imprisoned the once-powerful lord had been left to fend for himself, an outcast in a world that once embraced him.

Yet, Lord Cedric remained at large, slipping through the cracks like the cunning serpent he was.

Prince Izan's frustration grew with each passing day. Every lead, every whisper of Cedric's location, seemed to end in a dead end. His most trusted men were dispatched across the empire, scouring villages, forests, and estates in search of the man who had betrayed them all. But Cedric was elusive, more so than Izan had anticipated.

He knew he has no time to waste. The empire demanded justice, and Cedric's capture was now his top priority.
