Due to the uncertainties concerning Maximillian and his companion, Darren, each of the most powerful factions of the Spiritual Church would retreat from their moves against Minos and Gloria's group over the next few days.

Even the most vigorous faction against Minos and Gloria, Prince Calvert's group, would move their attention away from the Black Plain Empire, dropping their plans regarding them and calling their men back to the Evergreen Empire.

Other powers of the Central Continent were also stopping paying attention to Minos' empire to turn their attention to Maximillian and his emergence in the capital of the Evergreen Empire.

With 2 level 99 Demigods emerging on the continent and their strange actions, no one had time to pay attention to a young Spiritual Saint anymore.

As such, Minos would soon find himself in a perfect situation where even if Maximillian had not sworn to protect his state, he would still benefit from releasing him from his slumber!

The very presence of this man on the Central Continent would be enough to drive almost all the problems of the current Black Plain away!

Peace and opportunities for growth would finally return to this state without the pressures that had been hindering them in recent years!

...

As the continent's attention moved from the Black Plain Empire to the Evergreen Empire, Isabella arrived in Dry City after departing from Payton.

Upon arriving there, she immediately met Minos and solved each other's longing in their own special way...

After the warm meeting of the two, they met with the rest of the family to deal with this woman's situation, who, from now on, would join this family permanently.

"So you are finally free of your responsibilities?" Gloria asked Isabella, already resigned to the situation she was in.

She didn't like more women joining their family, but Isabella had already been with Minos for several years, and she, Abby, and Ruth already expected that sooner or later, she would marry him.

Considering the power of Minos currently and the situation of the Black Plain Empire and the Flaming Empire, it was already expected that this would happen in a short time.

Isabella replied with a smile on her face. "Yes, from now on, I no longer have to keep returning to the empire. I will only make periodic visits, but I don't plan to return to Payton before the birth of my little brother."

"Hmm, that's good. We will finally be able to live without any more problems and without having to hide the truth." Ruth said.

While Isabella was in Dry City in the past, they always had to be careful when going to and from the Spatial Kingdom, as well as having to justify their absences constantly.

This was something that could be done, but it irritated those who every time had to follow various protocols so as not to create suspicion.

With her upcoming marriage to Minos, the rest of the family could stop lying to her soon!

"Uh? What are you talking about?" Isabella wondered at that.

"You'll understand this soon enough," Abby said. "We won't go into details for now, but there are things you will discover when your loyalty is only to Minos and no one else."

Minos smiled at her and said. "Don't think too much about it. Certain secrets can only be known by those not very committed... Anyway, we are getting married in the next few months, so you will understand that soon enough."

Isabella was more curious after those words, but since she would find out when her marriage was confirmed to Minos, she didn't insist on them talking about it at the moment.

So she changed the subject. "But I'm impressed with the ally you got... How did you do it?"

Minos smiled and said. "I was lucky. By all means, make no mistake. It benefits me in the short term, but there are future dangers that will also be associated with it.

So it's too early for us to say whether this was as good as everyone thinks at the moment."

"What does that mean?" She grew more serious.

"I believe that the entire continent will face grand challenges very soon. Our state is safe in the short term, but we can't say anything for the future.

The current headwinds may lead us toward a calamity far worse than our situation before Maximillian returns." Minos said, knowing that only time would tell if his desperate act of following the map of the Seraphim Ancient Sarcophagus had been correct.

But he had no regrets. What was done could not be undone, and at least for now, he could become stronger to face future challenges.

That was already the best scenario he could have for this moment!

As for future problems, it was better to face them further ahead than now!

"I see... I hope everything ends well." She said, still on the outside of Minos and his family's greatest fears.

"Anyway, I have something to do now. Are you going to accompany me, or will you stick around?" Minos stood up from the couch in his living room, intending to do something he had been putting aside since arriving in Dry City.

"What is it?" Isabella asked as Minos' three other women watched him curiously.

"While I was traveling recently, I got the corpse of a level 85 beast. I intend to bury it in the Brown region, near the main spiritual root of that area.

That corpse will help raise the quality of that area for Spiritual Emperors to develop locally without having to come to the core empire." He said, improving his expression and showing a nice smile.

Hearing that, Isabella became interested in following him, while Abby and Gloria decided to stay in Dry City, minding their own business.

"I'll go with you," Ruth said after those two decided to stay in Dry City.

With that decided, Minos, Isabella, and Ruth would soon depart the empire's capital towards the Brown area, this area that had developed considerably in recent years.

Not only was the Brown area one of the closest to the empire's core, but it had also been the first to be forced under Minos' rule when he created the assembly of this area in his expansionist move years ago.

Because of that act, Minos invested much more than usual in that area and generated good development of the territory still commanded by the Brown family.

Yet, even with the improvements it had undergone over the years, the Brown area was still not rich in spiritual energy, and the area's Spiritual Emperors had all advanced in level to the core of the empire.

But that was close to changing with this move by Minos!
