Four months went by in a moment.
During this period, a few things happened.
Kailen did not slack off. He trained madly in the pocket world. There were no simulations in the pocket world. It was just exploration of the pocket world and training, which included hellish battles with monstrous beasts in the pocket world, some of whom he slaughtered and turned into shadow creatures as he increased in ranks.
Kailen had not forgotten that he had to settle things with Astra Von Astral, the emperor of the Astral Empire, who preferred to be called the Crown Prince.
After their encounter at the academy energy vault, the crown prince had been silent. He did not even come out to address the citizens of the empire after the attack of HQ base 323.
Instead, several imperial delegates, alongside some higher ups of the military, had been the ones to address the citizens and reassure them of their safety.
Kailen knew the silence of the crown prince meant he was definitely in seclusion.
