The next day...
It was evening in the area where Long Bay Correctional Facility was located.
Several soldiers were changing shifts at this time of day, with those who had been working for the past twelve hours going to rest while the others started work.
On the first level of the prison, Evan was just taking up his position, while Sarah was leaving her position for someone else to take her place. Vicente had also just finished his shift.
As the young Fuller made his way to the cafeteria, he thought about everything he had already planned. At dawn, it would be time to put his plans into action!
'What do you think of my plans, old Torne? Do you think I'm missing something?'
The old ghost said in Vicente's mind. 'There aren't many options here, master. You must leave this prison as soon as possible. As much as it's possible to develop a plan with fewer mistakes, there's no time for that. Your plan is the best you can do in the time we have.
You just have to watch out for this man named Snow Claw. He could be quite a problem for you. Even though he's 'only' a High-level Mage, if his record is to be trusted, he's someone the master can't stand to fight.'
'I know. I'll be careful.'
Torne added. 'Try your best to carry out your plan. Just be prepared for trouble in the next few days. Even if you succeed in your escape, it will haunt you for a while.
There will certainly be Sovereigns involved in the hunt for the fugitives.'
That was obvious. If Snow Claw escaped, Sovereigns would have to get involved!
Vicente didn't disagree as he walked into the dining hall, where he quickly spotted Sarah.
"Are we still going to act early in the morning? Are you sure?" She asked him as soon as they stood side by side and walked over to the table where there was plenty of food for the soldiers to help themselves to.
"Yes. I've completed my plans, and there's no point in wasting more time on this. Let's get on with our plans for the dawn."
She felt her heart beat faster and asked. "How do we start? And Evan? Unfortunately, they've changed his work schedule. That's going to be a problem for us."
Vicente smiled as he heard Sarah's concern. "On the contrary. I'm the one who changed his shift."
"Oh?"
"Evan will take the first step in our plans just before the end of his shift. That will start our plans." He said, looking into her eyes as he sat down in a place away from where most of the soldiers were.
Sarah sat down across from him and soon began to eat while being watched by some of the men in the hall.
She said to him as she put her hand over her mouth, "All right. I'll be ready for action at the beginning of the day. What exactly will I have to do?"
"My job will change tomorrow. Instead of working on bureaucratic things, I'll be assigned to level 2 detention. I will start the rebellion on levels 1, 2, and 3. In the meantime, you should take the opportunity to go to Snow Claw.
When you reach him, you must wait 5 minutes from the start of the rebellion to free him with something I'll give you later. That is the time it takes for the prison forces to turn their attention to these 3 levels and move in to solve the problem.
You must take advantage of this opportunity. If everything goes as I hope, you'll have 2 to 4 minutes before someone powerful gets in your way. But in 3 minutes, Evan and I should catch up with you."
"Then we would have to face opponents in the remaining minute..." She said with some concern. "What do we do next? How do we escape?"
"Not exactly. A group will try to chase you the moment you free Snow Claw. But they'll have to worry about the others in the maximum security wing. That will give us some breathing room." Vicente said, planning to throw the whole prison into chaos.
He said. "One or the other might catch up with us. It will be difficult to escape without facing opponents. But that doesn't mean much. We'll be together, and we'll have Snow Claw by our side. Anyway, I'll lead our escape from the east side of the prison, where the defenses are weakest. I'll use my skills to pave the way for our escape."
"All right. I'll try my best." She said as she finished eating.
After they finished eating, they spent a few moments in the cafeteria talking to some of the soldiers they had interacted with over the past few days.
Then, they would go to the dormitory area of this military facility, where the rooms of the 3rd stage soldiers were located.
Only the soldiers at the end of the 3rd stage had individual rooms. However, most of the 3rd stage soldiers' rooms had only two vacancies each. Since the soldiers had to work two shifts a day, it was difficult for one soldier to share their rooms with another during their rest period.
So when he arrived at his room with Sarah, Vicente didn't see the soldier he was sharing the room with.
As soon as he locked the door, he looked into Sarah's dark eyes and showed her a magnetic core that seemed to distort the space around it.
"Use this on Snow Claw's cell. It should be enough to free him and create chaos in the maximum security wing." He said as he handed it to her.
"How will I store this without being noticed?" She asked as she took it from Vicente's hands.
He smiled at her and said. "Keep it in your spatial ring. That can be considered a mana condensation, similar to magical artifacts with their own mana or even magical stones. It can be stored in spatial rings and much more.
Now, I will suppress it so it doesn't affect the environment. And once it's inside your spatial ring, it won't affect anything because of the properties of storage spaces. But you must be careful. Once you summon it, it will affect your surroundings. So only do it when you're in front of Snow Claw's cell."
"Okay."
She quickly did what she was supposed to and stored the item in her spatial ring.
She turned to leave and open the door, Vicente following her out of the room.
However, as soon as they saw the corridor outside the room, they saw a soldier approaching them with a strange expression.
'Shit! Did he sense the aura from that?' Sarah despaired, imagining that they would be caught in the act.
Vicente thought the same while Torne spoke in his mind. 'Do something quickly, or you'll be in trouble! The soldier had been looking in the direction of your room for the last few moments.'
Feeling his heart beat faster, Vicente saw only one alternative. He grabbed one of Sarah's wrists and pulled her toward him, frightening the black-haired woman.
"That..." She looked at him in surprise but couldn't say much before she felt Vicente press his lips to hers.
At that moment, he planted a warm tongue kiss on Sarah, making her jump out of this reality into a parallel world for a moment as he traced her body with his fingers.
"What?" The soldier walking towards them changed his expression as he stopped in the middle of his path, seeing something he hadn't expected unfolding in front of him.
