When Sarah saw one of the four men enter the living area of the maximum-security wing, she immediately turned her full attention to a purple-haired man.

He looked young, with several tattoos visible on his arms, while he was unshaven and had a short head of hair. He had a strange look in his eyes as if he was concentrating deeply on something.

The way he walked made him look very calm, while he had both hands in his trousers' pockets as he walked towards his doctor, who was there to talk to him today.

Even though his magical powers were sealed, Snow Claw still exuded a potent aura capable of attracting the eyes of anyone new to this place.

"Snow Claw... He is powerful." Said a soldier not far from Sarah, seeing that this woman, like him, was impressed by Jonah Keen's aura.

"Do you know him?" Sarah asked, pretending not to know who Snow Claw was.

But how could she not know where Jonah came from? Under the identity of Snow Claw, this man had been the greatest enemy of The Ruby Devils, the largest underworld organization in Scott Province.

Sarah had recently been a member of the second-largest criminal group in the province, so she knew every detail of Snow Claw's story, from the most absurd rumors to the facts of Jonah's life.

She couldn't be called a fan of the guy, but she certainly admired him and saw what she wanted to be in such a person.

The soldier beside Sarah laughed. "That guy is an animal. Maybe you don't know him because he's less famous in your province. But he is a monster. Rumor has it that he can fight Sovereigns while being a Mage!

It took three Sovereigns to capture him! He's so tricky that even the Crown Prince joined the fight and narrowly defeated that bastard!"

Sarah feigned astonishment when she heard this, knowing how Snow Claw had been arrested.

The soldier next to her expanded on the Snow Claw story a bit. Still, it really had taken more than one Sovereign to get involved in Jonah's arrest!

And even against two Sovereigns, Snow Claw had managed to wound both of them before they fell!

"Impressive!" She said to her fellow guardian. "What was his crime?"

The soldier remained silent as he looked at Snow Claw, thinking hard about what to say. But this time, he was honest. "I'm not sure. I've never seen his file, and there aren't many rumors about the crime that brought him here. There are only theories about how he got here.

The most popular one is that he was close to The Ruby Devils and their followers in Saltstar City. But then there was a disagreement between him and the leader of that faction, which led to the situation that brought him here.

But some people say that he kidnapped the eldest princess and abused her... But these are just rumors."

"I see. He seems quite dangerous." She commented.

"Yes. You'd better not go near him. He's already killed a dozen soldiers since he started serving his sentence here... Sigh, it's a shame that such a bastard doesn't get the death penalty. Unfortunately, soldiers like us will have to deal with him for at least the next 1,000 years." The soldier vented, knowing that Snow Claw was serving a life sentence.

...

While Sarah continued her work, Vicente took over Oscar's duties in an administrative area of the prison.

In his working area, 15 others like him were studying the files of criminals held at Long Bay Correctional Facility.

Long Bay Correctional Facility housed not only criminals from all walks of life but also men and women. Each wing of the prison had a male and female section, where inmates were separated not only by their levels and crimes but also by their gender.

The female soldiers were in charge of the female prisoners, while the men were in charge of the male prisoners.

However, some of the guards were in charge of all the prisoners in a particular wing, regardless of their gender.

Vicente was standing in front of the group supervisor, trying to get what he wanted.

"Commander Till, can you help me with this? I'd like to advance my work a bit. If you want, I can take on other more problematic tasks later. But I wanted to get this done as soon as possible." He said to a woman with tanned skin and purple hair.

This woman, dressed in women's armor, something strange to see in an administrative area, looked into the eyes of the young soldier in front of her and asked. "Why do you want to promote yourself so much, Oscar? What's in it for you?"

"I want to attract the attention of my superiors, of course. As much as the administrative work is necessary, I'd like to move up and do other things. So I want to finish my analysis work as soon as possible to be assigned to other things," Vicente said.

There were shifts in this prison. A soldier assigned to spend the next decade in a place like this did not have to do the same job 24 hours a day for 10 years.

Soldiers took turns occasionally and had rest and work periods each day.

"So you want to change jobs?" The supervisor smiled because it wasn't unusual for soldiers to dislike certain jobs.

What was unusual was for a soldier to try so hard to get his job done faster!

The army did not give time off to soldiers who finished their chores early. So Vicente worked harder without a guarantee that he would get a break or be sent to another part of the prison.

However, his justification was sufficient, and she accepted his request.

"Very well. But I can't promise you that there will be no more work for you here. Not everyone can change jobs so quickly." She gave him a folder with the records of the most dangerous criminals under detention.

Vicente thanked her and soon returned to his desk, where he flipped through them until he found the name he wanted.

'Jonah Keen...' He opened the information dossier on Snow Claw, which contained all the relevant information on this dangerous inmate, from his cell to his magical form and the real reason he was in this prison unit.

'Let me see what I can find out about you...'
