The next day...
After a quiet night in the capital of the Flaming Empire, Minos and his wives had gotten to know a bit of that city and the local temple.
They had not yet gone out to do business but instead visited the local library of the Temple of Payton, a place that Minos wanted to stop by to look for some information.
Minos had been looking for information on organizations outside the northern region of the Central Continent for some time but had not had many opportunities in the past.
In his recent passage through Church posts in Rosser and Vogel, he had other problems in mind in such situations and had not found anything useful either.
But still, Minos had not forgotten about the Blood Triangle Pirates, who were behind the map in his spatial ring. At the same time, he had an enmity with the people of the Saints Slaying Sect, so that was another organization he sought information from.
There was still the mystery of the North Sea, but Minos had no hope of getting information about such a place in the Flaming Empire.
After all, even Grant, the Storyteller, a native of the Western Empire, had lost a high-level companion in that place. So, how could a lower-level Empire have the answers he sought?
With that, Minos and his wives had spent some time in the library of the Temple of Payton the night before, having already obtained some hints and information that would be useful to them on their journey.
But they still had not gotten the best information, just enough to know there was something else to investigate in this place.

So after leaving the library the day before, they decided to return a few more times to this place in the coming days while they were doing business in this city.
It seemed that some organization in the Evergreen Empire was on to something important, but they needed to talk to more people to get less vague information.
With that, they had dined with Gloria's family and spent the night in that residence, where they woke up this morning when they would begin their business at this place.
...
"Good morning, mother-in-law..." Minos said as he faced Gloria's mother in that residence's kitchen, seeing his wives already starting to eat.
Seeing this young man who still had his hair messy, Margot remembered something and smiled at Minos.
"How long do you intend to stay here?" She asked him as he strangely looked at her.
"Just long enough for us to settle some business. I think about three or four days. Why?" Minos asked before putting a piece of toast with jam in his mouth.
"Hehe, I don't think you'll be here that long..." She smiled as she prepared another plate for Gloria. "Don't you want to become the King of Vogel? I think you will soon return there..."
Minos and his wives did not quite understand what this woman meant and just watched her in doubt.
He then ignored her comment and said. "If you want me away fast, you can start by giving me some information about the Blood Triangle Pirates. I couldn't find out everything I wanted to because of the censorship in the local library books..."
"Blood Triangle Pirates?" Margot looked at Minos with a bit of interest. She knew a piece or two of information about this organization, so she wanted to know his motives. "Why do you want to know about them?"
Minos then answered her. "I just noticed some groups of pirates in my area claiming to be working for this organization in search of something. So, I became curious about them. After all, what is there for an organization from the Evergreen Empire to look for in those areas?"
Margot looked at him and said. "Forget about it. There is nothing for you to want to get involved with that organization just because they are looking for something."<sub> </sub>

"But can't you tell us a little about them, mother?" Gloria asked.
"No, you don't need to know." She replied, considering their own good.
'This is an arm of the imperial family of that place, which has a connection with the Church. Then, you'd better not know anything, so you don't get into trouble.' She pondered in silence.
Margot was too weak to know the most detailed information about this organization. Hence, she did not know what the Blood Triangle Pirates were after, nor the exact relationship of this organization to the Church.
Therefore, she could only suspect that it would not be the best thing for Minos and her daughter to get involved with things that even she, at level 77, could not access.
Meanwhile, Gloria was looking at her mother and pressing her jaw, feeling her mother was trying to slow them down. 'Alright! I'll find out when I get to the 8th stage!'
As for Minos, he just realized that the problem with this organization was much worse than he had thought. 'Maybe they are connected to a high-level group in the Evergreen Empire?'
'Well, considering that such a group even acts in the Continent of the Beasts, even considering the danger of going against the dragon laws, there must be something powerful on their side.' He considered.
He then asked. "Then tell me about the Saints Slaying Sect. Who is stronger, that sect or the Gray Clouds Sect?"
He could ask Gloria and Ruth that, but the two had not yet reached the level of experience to answer that question with the same expertise as Margot. So Minos was counting on his mother-in-law for that.
She looked at him as she realized he was worried about his family. "Don't worry. The Gray Clouds Sect won't fall to the Saints Killing Sect. They are not that different in terms of power, and the emperor would never allow such a thing."
"I'm not worried about that..." Minos said. "I just want to know how hard it would be to destroy the Saints Killing Sect using the Gray Clouds Sect."
"Tsk!"
"You like to think absurd thoughts!" She said, feeling a little irritated at this young man who was so full of himself. 'Just you wait, you rascal. You'll soon lose that facade!' She controlled herself not to hit Minos at the thought of what would happen.
So Minos went back to eating with his wives, while one of them would ask Margot about the previous subject now and then.
But Gloria's mother would only answer questions concerning the Saints Killing Sect, leaving organizations from places stronger than the Flaming Empire aside.
That was until, just as they were about to leave that estate to go about their business in this city, a spatial disturbance appeared above the Temple of Payton, and they all noticed it.
"Pyke! Get out now. I'm here to get you!" A Spiritual Sage said this in a tone loud enough for everyone in that temple to hear him.
While Minos felt that this was probably for him, Margot laughed and said. "It's your time to talk to him, isn't it, 'Pyke'?"
Hearing this, Minos understood everything and looked at this woman as if saying she would pay for it.
"Pyke! Come now! It is inevitable. You will not run away from me today!" The Sage said once again as he looked in the direction of Margot's house, who had reported this fellow.
