The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1169 Time Of Seclusion And Return

After watching Abby fall into a deep sleep, Minos knew this would take some time to resolve, just as it had with him.

Obviously, the two things could not be compared since Henricus Longus and the Goddess of Life, as well as the level 0, 9-year-old him, and the level 60, 31-year-old Abby, were quite different.

But even if such a thing was not going to take six years to resolve, Minos was sure that it was not something that would be resolved in a day or two.

However, while thinking about what to do, a giant wormhole appeared below him, opening the way for the two of them to leave this place.

Seeing this, Minos promptly made Abby float under his command, controlling her body so that she would not fall or leave her state when they returned to the crypt of the Walker family palace.

And with that, in the blink of an eye, the two appeared in that place in the same way that had happened with Wilfred, drawing the attention of the guards in position.

"Uh? The statue of the Goddess is gone..." One of them commented, just before he saw the two dressed in armor landing in that place.

"Your Majesties!" They all ran closer to Minos and Abby in reverence, happy that the two had returned well.

They did not give a damn what happened to the Black Plain royal family in everyday situations. But with the presence of Gloria and Ruth in their family for the last 15 days, they could not help but be concerned about Minos and Abby's situation.

What would happen to them if Minos and Abby did not return?

They were worried about that, so they were happy to see the two of them safe and sound.

"What's the matter with you? Why all this excitement?" Minos asked with a smile on his face.

"Answering Your Majesty. Days have passed since the supreme elder's return and this moment. So, your wives were already getting worried." One of them promptly replied.

"Oh? Days?" Minos asked in surprise. "For me, it hasn't even been two hours since I last saw Wilfred."

"Two hours?" The people there looked at each other, amazed at the difference in the passage of time between the two sides.

And in fact, each test of that inheritance took place in a different part of the Secret Tomb, where time worked differently.

Certain combinations of Natural Laws could result in unintended effects, creating this kind of situation.

In this case, how the Goddess of Life had created that inheritance and how she had placed Abby and Minos in an illusion, messing with their senses, had generated such an effect in time and space.

Because of all this, days had passed since Wilfred's return!

"Well, take me to my wives. It's time for us to leave this place!" He said as he walked with Abby floating in front of him, along with the golden cloud in her surroundings.

"Right away, Your Majesty!" One of them said as he took the lead and directed Minos to the right place.

As another set off to report Blake and company, it did not take long for Minos to arrive at the residence where Gloria and Ruth were eating at this very moment.

"Minos!" Gloria saw the face of her baby's father and ran up to him, smiling at finally being able to be with her man.

Ruth also got up and went towards him to hug him, but she could not help but notice Abby. "What happened to her?"

While hugging his favorite pregnant, Minos replied to Ruth. "We finished the main part of the Goddess of Life's inheritance, and now Abby is absorbing her gains."

"Oh?" Ruth smiled at that, genuinely happy that the queen of the Black Plain had accomplished something so good.

"Have you finished the main part? Is there still more?" Gloria asked as she looked up and saw her husband's face.

"Hmm, we still have to pursue and eliminate the traces of the God of Death, the great enemy of the Goddess of Life." He replied.

"God of Death? The same one who was worshipped by the Scourges of the Devil?" Ruth asked in surprise.

"Yes, the said one."

"God of Death... I don't remember anyone like that. Even after the stories Wilfred told about that place. I still don't remember anyone like that in history." Gloria commented.

"Well, he had pretty impressive powers. So, maybe there's some sort of secrecy about information about him." Minos commented, considering that it could be hazardous if ambitious people found out about that man.

'The Spiritual Church must have kept his information to the higher up... And the same must be true for the Goddess of Life. They were mortal enemies, so if information about her were available, there would be an indirect way to find out about him.' He finally understood why he knew nothing of these two experts before he entered the Secret Tomb.

"So, what do we do?" The beautiful redhead in his arms asked.

He hugged Ruth along with Gloria and answered. "I discovered that the God of Death's inheritance location is somewhere in Albano. So, when we return from the Flaming Empire, we will go through that state to sort it out."

"Albano? Are you sure?" Ruth asked in doubt. "Aren't you trying to find an excuse to pass through that kingdom of depraved people?"

Minos almost laughed at his wife's concern. "One of the enemy skeletons in the first test told me about it, and the soul fragment of the Goddess of Life indicated that there was a mark of that fellow's power in Albano's direction. So, I am certain that such a thing is in that area."

"And how will we find it?" Gloria questioned.

He mysteriously smiled. "I already have a method of solving it. When we return from the Flaming Empire, it probably won't be hard for us to find the way..."

Ruth realized a problem and then asked. "If you haven't finished this inheritance yet, what is the deadline for us to fulfill this requirement?"

Minos' eyes widened in surprise while a bitter smile appeared on his face. "Good question. She didn't say that to me, but I think Abby will know when she wakes up..."

"In any case, doing something like that shouldn't be easy, even more so considering Abby's level. So, I don't think the time frame is short, or the Goddess of Life would be unrealistic with the person she left her powers to."

"Makes sense..." The two beauties hugging him commented as they looked at Abby.

"How long will she stay like this?"

"I don't know. It's hard to say, but I estimate from a few weeks to months." He said to Ruth, seeing her surprised look.

"So what do we do now? Do we wait for her to wake up?" This black-haired woman asked.

"No. We'll return to Dry City, settle some business there, and leave for the Flaming Empire. I'm sure Abby will wake up in time to enjoy the trip alongside us."

"OK!"

When the two agreed, Blake and Wilfred arrived at that place, curious to find out what had happened in the latter part of the inheritance.

Wilfred's mother had already left for Dry City, so only those two were there to talk to Minos.

"Your Majesty, did you make it?" Wilfred asked as he saw the golden cloud around Abby, indicating a good thing.

Minos nodded and said. "Yes, we have finished our business in this place and will leave for our state in a moment."

"Already?" Blake asked, hoping they would at least stay for a celebratory feast.

His family had gained much from Wilfred, so Blake could not help but feel indebted to Minos, who had made the supreme elder's return possible.

"No, thank you. We're leaving your city right now. See you later!" Minos said this, bringing the floating Abby to his side as he headed toward the exit of the royal palace.
