The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1675

Meanwhile, in the Evergreen Empire...

The regent left by the Evergreen Emperor had already received news of the meeting of those enemies of his state and was naturally worried.

Strangely enough, historical enemies had met, and within hours of this encounter, both sides were already moving their troops away from the area of battles between their states.

As such, this man's concern was great, and he had even gathered the most important people in this family available to address the issue.

"People, get ready for movements from the western region. I feel that there is something big behind this meeting, so we cannot miss a single detail about the choices of those powers.

Our job of keeping up with the movements of those powers has never been more imperative than it is now!"

"We have notified the Church about this and will soon have its position on it."

"But why would those enemies stop their historic war right now?"

"I don't know... That's damned Vico's doing!"

The elders there exchanged comments among themselves until a person entered the meeting room where they were with a serious look on his face.

Everyone was silent when interrupted by this person, but they quickly noticed that he had brought urgent news.

He then shouted. "Elders, Your Excellency, I bring news from the Black Plain Empire! Minos Stuart has resurfaced after his weeks-long disappearance alongside TWO level 99 Demigods!"

"What?"

"How?"

"Impossible!"

The people there wondering that Minos' name was mentioned just now could not contain their doubts upon hearing such absurdity.

The regent was the one most shocked, even more so considering the group's previous actions under this family's command.

He asked. "Hey, Xandyr, explain yourself. Where did these experts come from?"

"Answering Your Excellency, no one knows. They came out of nowhere and have been in the Dry City for a few days now. The Church is trying to communicate with the post in that city, but strangely that post is not responding.

In any case, it is a fact that Minos Stuart returned on the side of powerful experts, and one of them even declared himself favorable to the emperor of the Black Plain.

In the words of this expert..." He read a paper. "From now on, the Black Plain Empire has the protection of Maximillian Flamen!"

With those last words, everyone in that place was silent, imagining this could only be a sick joke against this state.

"Max..."

"Maximillian..."

"Falmen?"

The people there remembered this historical figure, thinking the Demigod on the Black Plain next to Minos had probably used that name to tease them.

'What does this mean? Will Minos rebel alongside this impostor?' The regent thought, not understanding where this expert had come from but immediately worrying about the possibilities ahead of his group.

...

Church headquarters was also agitated by the news coming from the Black Plain Empire, a cold shower for many of the prominent factions wanting to absorb Minos Gloria's group.

But there were those groups happy as they were considering joining Minos and Gloria after the talks that subordinates of this Matriarch had had with other more minor factions of the Church in the previous months.

With this recent news, the faction of the two was less likely to be crushed by the Church colossi, giving those groups more confidence to talk to Minos.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Pontiff and his staff had received the news about Maximillian's arrival at Minos' side with apprehension.

They knew nothing about this person who had no respect for them, using the name of someone relevant to the history of this organization.

At the same time, Minos' return with those two experts happening almost simultaneously with the meeting in the western region worry the leaders of this organization even more.

This was not a good time for these two unknown experts to appear!

As such, the Church command was already moving its personnel to investigate the situations in the western and northern regions and strengthen its positions in the Evergreen Empire.

...

Later that same day...

After so long away, Maximillian had finished receiving all the information he needed to begin his journey across the Central Continent.

So he was ahead of Minos, some important local government members, Darren, and the three hostages.

"Young Minos, I will leave for the hour. I don't know how long I will go without seeing you, but even in my absence, know I will keep my promise." He said as he said goodbye to this young Spiritual Saint.

"For the rest, I hope to hear from you in the future. You will have independence when you become a Demigod, but I will give you a week's training before that."

"Hmm, good luck with your plans," Minos said, not speaking much about this man's promises but satisfied.

"See you later. For you, it may take quite a while for us to see each other again, but I feel like I'll see you in a heartbeat." He said with a smile before he opened a wormhole and disappeared along with those four.

With that person's disappearance, Minos' subordinates and family members finally breathed a sigh of relief, for even though they seemed friendly, it was not comfortable to be around such strong outsiders continuously.

Minos also sighed, imagining that the challenges ahead of him would be very different from the ones he had prepared for before.

But first of all, he moved toward one of the capital's high-level cultivation areas, where there was a Black Hole Bomb.

With that, it wouldn't take long for him to use the black hole inside that device to cover his movement toward the Spatial Kingdom!

'Time to bring everyone back.' He thought, missing his wives and curious to see how his children were doing.

But only less than four months had passed since his departure in search of the Seraphim Ancient Sarcophagus, so upon meeting them again, few things had changed.

In any case, Minos would soon spend time with his children and wives, bringing back from the Spatial Kingdom people who had stayed the last few months there and taking others there later.

Now that the matter of the previous map had been resolved, they had many matters to begin dealing with regarding the Church and the empire.

But amid this moment, it wouldn't take long for important visitors to arrive in Dry City to get in the way of Minos' family returning to its routine!
