[Inside the Tower]
Vexthra, who was seated inside the Mountain Garden enjoying her tea, suddenly felt an unknown force block her connection to Kent.
This caused her to panic; however, before things could escalate, Gaia appeared inside the garden.
"Where is Kent?" Vexthra asked.
"He is on a mission that came with a special condition. We can't contact him, and he can't contact us. However, he is fine.
"I only came to inform you because he will be away for a while," Gaia responded, and Vexthra let out a deep sigh.
Her worried expression softened upon hearing what Gaia said.
"How long will he be away for?" Vexthra asked.
"Close to two years," Gaia answered. Since time runs differently inside the tower, the three weeks for Kent are over 500 days for them. So, close to two years will pass before they see Kent again.
"Thank you." Gaia nodded and left.
