The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1553 Oswald's Situation 2

After a few moments, Minos arrived at a property on top of a building in that place built into the trees, soon being directed to where the inmates were staying.

In that place, men beaten by local women were waiting there until the date of the breeding ceremony.

Because of this, there were few cells, as the number of inmates was relatively small.

On his way to Oswald's cell, Minos still saw a dozen men in prison, individuals who were mostly quite depressed, given their desperate situation.

Many Spiritual Saints were around, but to Minos' surprise, even Spiritual Sages could be seen!

He looked at a level 89 individual, surprised to see someone so close to the peak of the world subject himself to this situation.

The woman leading their way saw Minos' strange look and commented. "This is, or instead was, a patriarch of an ascendant family of the Evergreen Empire. However, in a power dispute situation, he lost something valuable to his family, and in a desperate attempt to prevent the downfall of that house, he came to our state.

Unfortunately for him, greed got in his eyes, and after a few victories, instead of returning with the resources he needed for his family, he was challenged and defeated by one of our elders.

Now he is awaiting the day he will lose his manhood, which may even become that of his death."

Minos listened to this interestedly, not thinking about what that woman implied by her unnecessary explanation. He asked. "Does that happen often?"

The woman guiding them shook her head negatively.

Ella then said. "But people from the Evergreen Empire constantly show up in our state. Not only men but many women from there."

The Flowers Kingdom was between the Eastern Empire and the Evergreen Empire, two enemies.

And contrary to what one might think, a neutral place was not necessarily a 'forgiven' place.

When a state lacked power and stood between two powerful states that were also enemies, the weaker one between them would suffer as the battleground between the two larger ones.

This kingdom had allied itself with one side in the past to avoid becoming a battleground between the two, which had saved it and made it very close to the Spiritual Church.

Given this proximity, the flow of people between the Evergreen Empire and the Flowers Kingdom was much more intense than that between that state and the Eastern Empire.

But despite everything, the Flowers Kingdom did not stand firm against the Eastern Empire, and the queen was even willing to allow one of the Travisani family men into her domain.

Anyway, Minos listened to this information about the local situation, improving a little more his knowledge of the current situation in the Central Continent.

But soon, he stood before Oswald's cell and no longer thought about these curiosities.

"Here is your grandfather... You have five minutes to chat with him, Minos Stuart." The woman who guided them said that before walking away to give those people time.

Minos had been given this opportunity, but that didn't mean he could stay as long as he wanted!

Minos then looked at the situation of his old grandfather, who was surprised to see his grandson there right after his defeat. "It looks like you're not growing up bad, haha." This old fellow said as he leaned against the cell bars, smiling. "How long has it been, three years? And have you leveled up again?"

"A little less than three years," Minos said, showing to this old man that he still underestimated him.

"Hahaha, in a few years, you will become stronger than this old man, Minos," Oswald said, with one of his hands going through the gaps in the bars to tap one of his grandson's shoulders.

"Perhaps sooner than you realize..." Minos closed his eyes momentarily. "In any case, I'm surprised you still fell here after all I've offered you."

Oswald became more serious and said. "Don't talk like I've had time to get used to those techniques... I only had a few months. Meanwhile, my opponent was someone almost like you, Minos."

"Oh?" Minos opened his mouth in surprise. "Then that must have been on purpose."

"Yes. I traveled around this state for almost six months, trying to find a way to save Harold. At that time, I didn't get even a single challenge. After that, I was challenged three times, but on each occasion, I did something I shouldn't have and ended up pissing off these women who challenged me.

It was only then, three months ago, that out of nowhere, Chelsea appeared and challenged me, making me play ridiculous games with her until a few days ago...

She seemed to be waiting for something."

"Hmm, me," Minos muttered, noticing that the queen really wanted to stop him from leaving this state. "They want to make me fight more than once to free you and Harold."

Oswald had already realized this and asked. "Will you succeed?"

"Don't worry. I'm not the kind who plays to lose." Minos confidently said to his grandfather.

"Very well, I believe you." Oswald sat down after saying that. "Now tell me a little about the situation of our family and sect..."

Minos would spend the next few moments explaining the situation of the Black Plain Empire, Gray Clouds Sect, and the Coleman family to Oswald, reassuring this fellow.

He hadn't expected Minos to be so strong as to face a level 80 Mortimer, but he believed it all, satisfied.

From Minos' words, the sect was doing very well, with Spiritual Saints getting stronger and stronger. As for the Stuart family, they now had an extra relative on the cultivation journey, with impressive talent and Physique.

"Hmm, good to know," Oswald said, pleased to find out about Sarah's situation. "Anyway, you'd better go. I'll be waiting for news."

Minos nodded, pleased to see that Oswald was complete and sure that it would be enough for him to defeat the queen's champions to get his grandfather and Harold freedom. After that, they could leave the kingdom and this place behind for good.

Thus, Minos did not wait for the woman from before to call him when his time was up. Instead, he turned around after speaking with his grandfather, intending to leave immediately.

"Ella, take me to the capital." He ordered, making this woman smile in satisfaction after weeks of traveling together.

"Very well." She led the way, leaving their guide through that estate behind, wondering how long it would take for Minos to regret his arrogance terribly.

'I'll make time to visit the capital... I want to see how the princesses crumple that idiot's face!'

So Minos departed Sosa and soon began his three-week journey to the place where the queen and some of her daughters were waiting for him!
