## Chapter
- number: 54
- release_date: 2025-03-13

### Summary
Shifting abruptly from the recent heartwarming resolution of Douglas’s personal arc, the narrative introduces a significant new threat. A faction, identified by readers as a "dragon cult," emerges to manipulate the disowned 5th Prince, Ragnar. This group requires his royal Greenriver blood to break the seal on a powerful entity known as the "Last Dragonian." While the cult attempts to control Ragnar by appealing to his ambition and calling him a "chosen one," readers observe that he is not a simple puppet, astutely recognizing their manipulation while seeking to turn the situation to his advantage. The chapter ends on a major cliffhanger as the Dragonian is freed, sparking intense speculation about his identity. A prominent theory suggests this figure is Ian's long-lost father, which could explain Ian's unique magical prowess. Others posit he is a legendary Greenriver royal from the past, noting his blond hair and golden eyes. Readers theorize that the Dragonian's release is an unintended consequence of Ian's time regression magic, which may have weakened the ancient seal, thus expanding the conflict from a personal vendetta into a far larger, historical power struggle.
