While servants hurriedly pack stolen clothing, a villager claims a man who looks like the Demon Lord has been stealing underwear. Accused and nearly lynched, the impostor is dragged toward punishment before guards pause—Adam reminds them their Lord fell into a three‑year slumber after sacrificing his meridians to save the Jade Clan leader. Rumors that the Lord has awakened spread, yet no summons come. Reports arrive that the Master and Mr. Morgan also had underwear stolen, undermining simple explanations. The clan launches a search for the impersonator as leaders reel from repeated thefts, the culprit still at large.
