Chapter 1126: Moment Of Hesitation

After a while, Minos returned alone to his grandfather's estate, where he met his wives and returned to Ruth's parents' home alongside them.

As for Talia, she rested for a while in that cave and returned home alone, satisfied that she had fulfilled several of her fantasies with Minos in one afternoon.

Her mood had improved, and an unusual urge to sleep had arisen for her, leading her to seek her bed soon after arriving at that place.

Luckily for Talia, she had her residence. So she would not have to worry about her family noticing how different her behavior was after getting to know her brother-in-law deeply...

...

A few hours later, Minos was already with his wives at Vince and Elise's home when someone sent by Ivory knocked on the door of that residence looking for him.

As he went to answer such a person, Minos did not take long to hear the purpose of the servant there, who was ready to arrange a dinner between him and his mistress.

"Does she want me to go to dinner with her tonight?" Minos asked the person, seeing him nod in the affirmative. "Let's leave it until tomorrow. I've already spent the day busy with other things, and I'll be training and taking care of other matters. Tell her that."

Ivory's servant felt strange to see this person refusing that woman's initial proposal. Still, he quickly agreed to pass those words on to her. "Goodbye." He said before leaving for his leader's estate.

Minos returned to his wives on that property, ready to train with them and get ready for a bit of group fun at night.

This evening Ruth's parents had a commitment away. So, they would have this house to themselves...

Since they could not go to the Spatial Kingdom from this place so as not to draw unnecessary attention, they could only have fun and train there.

That way, there was no way Minos could have accepted Ivory's invitation for tonight, and she could only wait for him for the next day.

...

The next day Minos continued with his business affairs in this sect in the morning, and in the afternoon, he and his wives followed a servant of Ivory to her residence.

Ivory seemed to want to meet only with Minos, but his wives had decided to go to this meeting anyway, and he had not tried to stop them.

For him, it was much easier to deal with the senseless people of this sect by being at his wives' side.

So, in the blink of an eye, they arrived at that blonde woman's residence, where apart from the servants and bodyguards, only she was there now.

"Minos..." Ivory said as she came across Ruth, Gloria, and Abby, "Welcome to my home..." She hides her surprise, quickly smiling at them and showing them the place with hand gestures.

They quickly looked around her residence and arrived at the dining room, where several dishes were already waiting for them.

"So, Ivory, what do you intend to do to help us? And what will we have to give in return for it?" Minos remembered that she had said she could help him regarding business deals with the Black Plain.

She finished serving her guests and smiled at him, noting that he would not roll over to start talking business. "Well, with my support, it will be easy for you to have some elders able to take on..."

? Minos realized where she was going, but before he could even say anything, Abby stopped Ivory from continuing. "My husband was talking about the business you can offer us for the benefit of the Black Plains, not the power struggle of this sect."

"Hmm, I already told that fool. If one day I want the leadership of this place, I won't need to follow your traditions." He said while tasting the wine served by Ivory.

She closed her mouth upon hearing such words, making a bitter expression but soon returning to normal. "Well, I heard you are trying to get deals with spiritual professionals from the sect. Is that true?"

"Yes," Ruth stated.

"Then I can expedite the approval of part of those deals and still facilitate new business in the future." She smiled as she saw Gloria eating and the other people there looking at her.

"Oh? That's a good thing..." Minos said. "But what about what that would cost me?"

She then took the opportunity to talk about what she wanted. "When you are to become the sect master, you will appoint me to a prestigious position with decision-making powers."

Before they could speak anything against this, she opened her hands in a gesture for them to wait. "Of course, what I ask is not in return for just this initial help from me. You will have the Moss family's support in the future in your rule as sect leader and to help your territory in the northern region."

Hearing this, Minos' women, even Gloria, who was actively eating, looked at him to find out what he thought of this.

Minos was silent for a moment, noticing that this woman would find a way to bring the subject of the passing of command of this sect into their conversation.

"Ivory, I haven't decided if I will follow through with this. How can I agree to a deal that depends on a position I may not have in the future?" He asked her.

"What? Haven't you made up your mind yet? Then what were you doing at the sect command yesterday afternoon?" She asked in doubt.

This woman and others in this sect knew that Oswald had taken Minos to meet the high-level elders. Not only did their relatives belong to that council, but they also had 'eyes' spread throughout this headquarters.

So as much as she had not heard such a thing from the high-level elders of her family, this woman knew that Minos had visited that place with Oswald.

But what other reason would there be for the sect master to take his grandson to those people if Minos was not ready to declare himself Oswald's successor?

That's why she was surprised and curious after Minos' previous speech.

He then said. "These people wanted my answer, but I didn't give them one. So we just talked about some matters before I left that place."

Ivory was silent as she listened to him, surprised that he had not given the high-level elders an answer but also unsure what to do now that she knew this.

"What did they say to you? Did they accept that?" She asked.

Minos then said, not caring to hide the truth. "They will continue with their plans without me. If I decide to take over this sect... Cough! Cough! If I take an interest in this sect master position, I will have to use my means to overtake whoever it is."

"So that's how it is..." She commented, feeling strange about Minos' methods, not understanding what was in this person's mind.

And precisely because he was unpredictable to her, she could not help but hesitate on what to do now!
