Date- 7 April 2321

Time- 12:07

Location- Southern Region, Southern Capital, Southern Card Creation Association, Auction House

Chris Chase was finding it hard to believe that someone saw through his disguise, despite his disbelief the truth was in front of him, the Southern Card Creation Association had seen through his disguise— No, it must be the Southern Emperor. Until her arrival, everything was going according to his plan. She must be the one who ruined his plan like she ruined his ex-lover that wretched night. This woman, she was like the bane of his existence. She had even activated the space isolation array formation of the auction house before exposing his true identity. When did she get so cunning? The last time he was her, she was all boobs no brains. 

'I cannot get caught,' thought Chris Chase, knowing that if he were to be caught and then expose his real identity the Southern emperor will blame him and the Western region for conspiring against the Southern region, and this incident will be blown out of proportion by his siblings to end his claim to the Western Throne. Therefore, under no circumstance can he be caught.

Feeling cornered, Chris could not help but wonder, 'All I wanted to do was raid an A-rank gate dungeon but how did it all come to this?' 

This morning in the Western Capital City, Chris Chase entered an A-rank gate dungeon using his false identity Chris Ainsworth, planning to solo it but while exploring the dungeon he came across another gate within the dungeon. Seeing the second gate within the dungeon Chris Chase immediately got excited believing that he had come across the rare Dungeon Tomb but when he entered it he exited the dungeon. Confused, Chris used his grimoire to triangulate his location, only to learn that he was in the Southern Region. 

'A Gate-Dungeon with two gates, one in the Western region and the other in the Southern region,' making this discovery Chris Chase was ecstatic. He believed this could be a huge opportunity for him to earn a lot of money as long as it stays his little secret. To make sure that it remains his little secret, Chris Chase decided to visit the nearest city and reserve all the raids for that A-rank gate dungeon under his name for the foreseeable future. 

To his surprise, the nearest city was the Southern Capital. Learning this Chris became more giddy because as long as he manages to monopolize this dungeon in both regions he will get his personal trade route between the two regions using which he can reap huge profits by opening a merchant company. Chris had thought of many ways to exploit the dungeon with two gates but for now, he planned to become filthy rich. 

Chris might be the prince of the Western Region but he was not rich, the resources and subsidies provided to him by the royal palace were not small but not a lot either. Unlike the Southern emperor who was the sole heir of the Crown and had all the resources of the Southern royal family at her fingertips, Chris had siblings to share the resources of the Western Royal family with. 

The Royal family provides abundant resources and support only to the royal children that showed potential making the fate of the Western royal children a constant struggle until one of them takes the throne and banishes or kills the rest. 

Compared to Chris Anna was a lot lucky in this field as she was the lone true heir of the Southern region unless it turns out that her uncle has given birth to a bastard somewhere outside or plans to start a family. 

Most of Chris's siblings had support from their maternal side but his mother however came from a eradicated secret family, the Ainsworth Family. So he did not have any forces to back him, once his mother was killed in a conspiracy when she was attending a tea party outside the royal palace he was all alone in the big royal palace and had to fend for himself. 

Three months after his mother's suspicious death Chris was almost assassinated when he left the royal palace to visit his lover, however, he was saved by the Ainsworth Family treasure that his mother left for him. Since then he wised up and ventured out of the palace under the disguise, giving birth to the talented Card Creationist and Array Master Chris Ainsworth. 

Arriving at the Southern capital, Chris realized that he did not have enough money to reserve the A-rank gate dungeon for the foreseeable future. Therefore, he planned to visit the Southern Card Creationist Association to sell his services as a card creationist to gather the required money.

In the enthusiasm of having found a secret route between the Southern and Western regions, Chris forgot that having fought the monsters of the dungeon his clothes were not in a presentable condition and he smelled awful. Right now there was only one thought in his mind, and that was to earn enough money to reserve the A-rank gate dungeon in both regions. And the fasted way to earn money that he knew was to create custom cards. 

Without any suspense, as soon as Chris entered the Southern Card Creationist Association he was approached by a staff who pointed out his tattered attire and foul smell. 

Just then an idea flashed in Chris's mind, which would help him gather the money he needed faster. That was to gain fame in the Western region by embarrassing the Southern Card Creationist Association by manipulating popular public opinion. With high fame, he would easily get approached by card apprentices to help them create custom cards for higher service charges. 

Fortunately, all the elements favored Chris's plan and he managed to get his stage to show off his skills while embarrassing the Southern Card creationist association. Everything was going according to his plan but it seems he was out of luck because his disguise was seen through by the Southern Emperor, putting him in a desperate situation.
