The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-1904

After a few moments, the members of Minos' group sensed that he was using his black hole fusion, which he had avoided during the recent journey but had shown the group on two occasions.

As a result, several of these Demigods moved, sensing that their ally had run into trouble as he advanced along this coast of the Continent of Beasts ahead of the entire group.

A Merman, a Kraken, and the group's Arctic Whale, all in their humanoid forms, advanced toward Minos ahead of the rest of the group, quickly reaching where his black hole had formed.

When they reached this region of space devoid of light, the three individuals with nervous looks stopped for a moment before noticing something coming out of the black hole, something that only Minos could do.

"Minos, what..." One of them was about to ask when he suddenly saw seven beautiful women coming out of that region of space alongside Emperor Stuart.

While the other members of their crew appeared in that place with fear on their faces, Minos laughed when he noticed the situation and said. "Sorry, guys. I felt that a tree was about to attack my family, and I acted quickly against it." He lied.

Meanwhile, Abby, Ruth, Gloria, and Isabella watched the beings in Minos' group, seeing how well their husband had done in his goals after leaving the Central Continent just over six months ago.

In addition, there were two elders from the Longus family, both at level 89 and Kyla, who was currently at level 80.

Seeing Emlyn appear in the area, Minos' wives and Kyla were happy to see this fox as this beast in its humanoid form approached them.

"Kyla, you have become a Sage!" She said with great satisfaction, much happier with her daughter's advancement than with Ruth's advancement to level 82.

With Ruth's advancement to level 82, the only woman on Minos currently at level 81 was Isabella, whom the black-haired woman had left behind because of the earlier inheritance.

In any case, Isabella was the closest to breaking through among them. She would probably reach level 82 before Gloria reached level 83, which wasn't far off either.

While parts of this family were meeting, Minos' crew soon understood that he had quickly solved the problem and they wouldn't have to fight once they arrived on this continent.

But considering the level of Minos' family, some of them couldn't help but imagine that they would have more difficulties than opportunities with those women joining them.

As much as they were Minos' relatives, they were of a lower level than him, something that would hardly contribute to the group's power.

'Why are they gathering at this place?' One of the Sea Folk descendants wondered, not understanding why Minos would risk so much to travel with these women at his side.

These individuals and others with the same doubts could even understand the situation of Kyla, a fox from the nearby tribe they would pass in a few moments. They also understood the importance of the two level 89 Sages who could contribute to the group's goals. But the case of his wives was challenging to understand.

It was as if they were there for tourism...

However, tourism on the Continent of Beasts was something only Demigods could afford!

The continent was home to the most powerful land beast races in the Spiritual World, and most of them were much more aggressive than the sea beasts or land beasts from the Central Continent.

Moreover, just as there were clashes between states, clans, organizations, and so on in the Central Continent or other areas of the Spiritual World, the same thing happened here, but with much more intensity.

The Central Continent had 13 states, and some of the beast tribes were as strong as the sovereign powers of their states. But the Continent of Beasts had more than 200 tribes, and more than half had similar powers.

As beings that could devour the bodies of their opponents and absorb some of their powers, the beasts found reasons to fight and start wars much more easily.

In such a competitive environment full of powerful beings, this place was a real mess for those who didn't know the area or were 'weak.'

As such, this was not the place to make tourism with mere low-level Sages!

"Minos, can we talk for a moment?" The level 91 Sea Folk woman asked him as she watched Emlyn and the newcomers interact.

"What is it?" He questioned.

"Won't it be dangerous for them to travel with us?" She got right to the point because even if she was only there to observe and didn't want to help the group keep these women alive, she knew that any weak link in the group could affect them all.

Minos understood the woman's concern and said. "Don't worry. As much as my wives are weaker than me, they have abilities that can help raise the level of the group as a whole.

Besides, this isn't just a trip for us to put together a powerful group. This is a journey of training and opportunities for us. I won't leave them behind just because this continent has some dangers."

"Some dangers?" The level 91 human Demigod of the mercenary group heard this as he approached the two, not entirely doubting the beginning of Minos' speech but thinking that his contractor underestimated these lands.

"Your Majesty, in this place, even normally calm trees attacked beings within their range for no reason.

We're going to have many problems on our way just because we're traveling with Nine-tailed Foxes... I think you're underestimating the local dangers."

Every tribe on this continent, except for the area's rulers, the dragons, had enemies. By arriving at this place alongside the Nine-tailed Foxes, this group had already guaranteed to run into problems with enemies from that tribe if they encountered them on their way.

In this place, a friend of an enemy was an enemy, someone to be eliminated!

Some beast tribes wouldn't even hesitate to attack creatures they had never seen before just because they noticed signs of friendship between those creatures and groups of their enemies.

Knowing that, the mercenary was naturally worried.

But Minos knew that better than anyone there. Henricus Longus might not have known and explored every place in this vast world. But the Continent of Beasts was a place he had traveled for more than 800 years after becoming a Demigod.

Of course, many things had changed from then to now, but even so, the competition, the tribal issues, and the strongest races in the area were still very similar to those of the past.

He looked at this level 91 man and said. "I'm aware of that...."
