The moment Minos and his wives left the kitchen of Margot's residence, the Spiritual Sage looked directly at the lawn of that estate, where they were.
When he saw the same faces he had seen months ago between the border of Rosser and the Flaming Empire, he immediately frowned.
"You?" He asked aloud, finding it an incredible coincidence that they were standing there. Even more so considering that Gloria was not in her Church uniform that day and had not even identified herself to him.
At the thought of this, this level 81 man soon began to feel that they had somehow disrespected him and made a frown as he looked at them.
Margot then pointed at Minos and said. "Cardinal, this is the young man who pretended to be Pyke during the situation in Vogel..."
Minos then looked at his mother-in-law with a surprised expression, upset that such a woman was scheming against him when he had done nothing against her.
But he was also surprised that Margot had found out about his time in Vogel when he had been careful to cover his tracks so many times.
Unfortunately for Minos, as much as others could not access Gloria's identification, Margot could. Because of this, she realized that her daughter had passed through the capital of Vogel just when 'Pyke' had been acting in that state.
With that, she connected the dots and identified Minos as 'Pyke,' whom this superior of hers was searching for.
After discovering this, it had only been a matter of hours before the level 81 Spiritual Sage received her message and came to this city.

"You?" That man opened his eyes wider upon hearing Margot's comment, feeling even more deceived by that brat.
"Kid, you tricked me! I was looking for you months ago, but you dared not identify yourself even though you were standing before me in that previous situation!" He said as he approached where Minos was.
At this moment, several experts in that temple were already watching them, trying to understand the situation. But not only that, even people from the royal palace on the other side of Payton's central square were focused in that direction, as it was unusual for someone of that man's level to appear in this state.
Unfortunately, Minos had no time to pay attention to the many eyes watching in his direction. "Cardinal, I don't know what you are talking about. How was I to know that you were after me? I was just following my journey here."
"Humph!"
"It was your duty to wait for someone sent by the Church to that state for you to give your statement. So why didn't you wait?" He asked, dissatisfied with this boy's excuses.
Minos then said. "I thought it could be done here in the Flaming Empire. What difference does it make if I report what happened here or in Vogel? At the end of the day, the information will still reach the Church command."
"Tsk!"
"You're good at excuses..." Margot said, trying to make it difficult for her son-in-law. "Be a little more honest, Minos."
"Minos?" That Spiritual Sage finally understood the identity of the rascal who had tricked him. "Are you the King of the Black Plain? It's not for nothing that you wish chaos in Vogel! You have your eyes set on that place!"
Minos cursed Margot in his mind as Gloria glared at her. This young redhead then said. "You are wrong, Cardinal. My husband never thought of Vogel until they attacked the Black Plain without any justification."
Ruth also said something. "And they were the ones who acted first that fateful day in Vogel. My husband was only protecting his state and even the Spiritual Church since the enemy was plotting against such a noble organization!"
Abby nodded in agreement. "They fooled the Church for years... I bet they were making secret toasts and laughing at this great organization."<sub> </sub>

The Spiritual Sage closed his eyes, feeling irritated by the defenses of those young women, but all that was reasonable to say, even considering that they were only defending Minos.
"None of this changes the fact that you are coveting a new state, Minos Stuart." He said before turning his attention back to Gloria. "And you, little girl. You stood in front of me and did not identify yourself. May I know the reason for this disrespect, or will you accept your punishment?"
But before he let her answer his question, he remembered better the information from 'Pyke' and what had happened in that now Volcanic Region. 'It was them!'
He looked back at Minos and asked. "You caused all that destruction? So it was your so-called bomb?"
Gloria closed her mouth and looked at Minos, while Margot was also surprised at such a thing.
Minos then replied. "Hmm, we were attacked by Spiritual Saints while looking for a place to blow it up safely. So, I was forced to use that thing in that place to protect my family."
Minos had no problem talking about it with these people. After all, the information about the power of that Black Hole Bomb was already known to the many who he had threatened in Vogel.
Since Margot had already handed him over on a platter to this Spiritual Sage, there was no longer any reason for him to hide the truth. But, on the other hand, he could very well use an unfavorable situation to his advantage!
Influence was worth a lot to powerful people, and his Black Hole Bomb gave him much of that!
Thus, he had surprised many people in the surrounding area, even Gloria's father, who had just appeared there because of the arrival of that expert.
"You did that? How?" Joseph asked in surprise, looking at Minos like many Spiritual Saints were doing.
Minos sighed and said. "I won't go into details, but I can make a fusion that results in something real that can grow independent of my powers."
That Spiritual Sage felt a little less offended by Minos' actions upon finding out about this, already considering that such a fellow was exceptionally talented for someone so ordinary.
Margot was amazed to hear all this and questioned him. "Is something like this possible? I've never heard of something created by a level 61 Spiritual Emperor becoming so strong!"
Minos shook his shoulders and said. "Ask the Spiritual Saints in the capital of Vogel. They all saw when I controlled that thing."
The level 81 man closed his eyes upon hearing this, having already heard such a thing from the people he had interrogated in the previous months.
'So this kid can do something like that?' He wondered. 'The King of the Black Plain is much more defiant than the rumors say! With something like this, he can threaten practically all the neighboring kingdoms in his region...'
'Could that be why the royal families of those three states are working for him in Vogel?' He wondered, not knowing the reality behind the negotiations in Vogel.
As the temporary regent of that state, he knew about the movements between the local noble families. In that way, he was aware of the actions of the Black Plain in trying to dominate that place.
"Sigh..."
'What do I do now? He clearly has a lot of advantages to take that place, but maybe he doesn't deserve that after all he's done...' He pondered in silence while several high-level Spiritual Saints from this temple questioned Minos.
