On the second day of Minos and his group in the city of the Fish People...

After their demonstration of power and show for the curious in the central square of the Fish People's city, Minos and his party made no further challenges in the hours following his defeat.

The city of the Fish People was small. In a place with only a few tens of thousands of inhabitants, what they had done had attracted enough attention for the entire city to find out about their group by the end of the first 24 hours after the challenges.

After that, several groups of mermaids and mermen made their way to the spot in the town's central square where Minos' group was, waiting for interested parties.

Some of those who came to see them were just curious, but several others were interested in joining his group.

However, many interested parties were weaker than the minimum level required by Minos, level 90, and they were naturally advised to return home and not think about the North Sea until they were stronger.

However, two 10th-stage mermen had appeared during this time and were interested in joining Minos' group.

Although the goal of the Sea Folk woman who had brought the group to this tribe was the mermaids, Minos was interested in any kind of support from 10th-stage creatures. That's why he had taken a level 90 and a level 91 merman into his group, even though they weren't mermaids.

At the beginning of his group's second day in the city, before being summoned by the local leaders for a private meeting at the government headquarters, Minos and his people had run into Rillie again.

She had done as he had asked, communicating with several 10th-stage mermaids she knew in an attempt to send them to Minos.

Unfortunately, none of them had shown any interest so far, and she had met Minos again just to inform him of her possible failure.

But even though she had failed, Minos didn't care. His purpose in the previous challenges was to attract attention, and the request he had made to Rillie was only to give her a mission. If she succeeded, good. But he didn't have high expectations.

Afterward, he had gone with Emlyn and the Sea Folk of his group to the tribe's seat of power, where he had answered questions about their interests.

Although the Fish People tribe was libertarian when it came to the freedoms of their people, that didn't mean they didn't care about their people and wouldn't intervene to protect the interests of their tribe members.

After answering a series of questions about his interests, where he was from, and where they could look for him, Minos and his group were released to return to their previous place, from which they would leave at the end of the day.

...

At the bottom of the sea, day and night were completely different from what could be seen on the surface.

Since the light from the ocean floor practically only came from the most exposed spiritual roots in these areas, the illumination level depended on the nearby roots and how they behaved.

Contrary to what one might expect, spiritual roots were not immutable beings that always functioned in the same way. Like living things that could get stronger or weaker, spiritual roots had their cycles.

Due to the metabolism of these important components of the world, the intensity of the glow of their roots varied throughout the day.

During the night on the surface, spiritual roots usually worked much harder because they had a nocturnal preference. For this very reason, when it was night in the ocean's surface area, the environment in the depths of the same area would be at the peak of its luminosity.

The opposite would happen during the day on the surface, and those at the bottom of the sea would experience their night.

At that moment, it was daylight on the surface, but in that underwater city on the ocean floor, the darkness of night was present, while many high-level underwater beings took their time to rest or sleep.

However, while this was the case for most of the beings in that Fish People's city, around the square where Minos had performed the previous challenges, several mermaids and mermen were standing on the outskirts, watching the results of the emperor's group's actions.

Just then, the mermaid who had defeated Minos arrived with a level 90 friend and said, "We'll join your group. After considering what we have to lose or gain, we've decided to take a chance with you."

Upon hearing this, Minos smiled with satisfaction as he saw the first mermaid willing to join his group. So far, only mermen had shown interest.

But while several beings from this tribe were there just to watch this group depart, another level 91 mermaid took a step closer to Minos' group and said. "I will also join your group.

I've lived for 70,000 years and only know the South Sea. I'm looking forward to seeing the land world and the most dangerous sea of our world! If I have to die on this journey, at least I'll have fulfilled my dream!"

The people in Minos' group were pleased to hear this, seeing that this mermaid, after living safely in this sea for a long time, was eager to take a chance on real adventures.

Sometimes, people hold back from making decisions that would bring them closer to their dreams because of fear and many other things.

But sometimes, all one has to do is give immovable beings a little push to make up their minds and take a course.

Would that lead to death and the end of this mermaid? Only time will tell. But that day, she put her cowardice aside and finally made a decision she had been hesitating for over 11,000 years!

"What's your name?"

"Lynn."

"Welcome to our group, Lynn. I hope we won't disappoint you or our other companions." Minos said before introducing his crew. "Anyway, ready to go? Now it's time for our next stop!"

With that, Lynn, Adrina, Merise, Hiro, Moby, and Bay, the new crew members of this group, soon introduced themselves and heard the names of the people in Minos' group before joining them and heading to their ship in another area of the city.

Moments later, the level 91 woman from the Sea Folk would take control of the group's ship and set sail for the home of the Krakens!
