There were Vivian and her bodyguard, a representative of another family of that kingdom, and two bodyguards who had nothing to do with these other people.
Several people had died, and now these two bodyguards were without their respective leaders. As for the representative who was still alive, he had lost his subordinates during this battle...
Anyway, the five of them were still around as they watched the outcome of this situation. Everything had happened so fast, and they were still digesting the end of this invasion.
Vivian was sitting on the floor, in the same place she had been before, when Minos had stopped her from receiving Kevin's attack. Her brown hair was loose in the air and she was there, waiting for this matter to be concluded.
She had several bruises across her thin body and was also completely exhausted. At this point, Samuel, who was finally at her side, said in a low voice. "Miss Vivian, what do we do now? Are we leaving, or are you going to appeal for the Spring of Life?"
"Let's stay a little longer and see if that person intends to fulfil what he said earlier..." She commented briefly as she already stuffed a spiritual pill into her mouth.
...
At the same time, when Vivian was beginning to recover from her injuries, Peter was beside Joey, Barbara, Robin, and Milton, in the same place as before, where they had left that building.
It had been a short time since they had been released, but those four people who were with Peter were all shocked at the outcome of things in this place.
That's why they had not run yet, looking for their long-awaited freedom. But at that moment, Milton finally turned to leave and said. "Guys, we should run away too. It won't be long before this place is filled with experts from the Chambers family!"
But just as he was about to leave, Minos approached where they were, looking in Peter's direction. This young man was in horrible shape and looked about 300 years older than he should have been.
His skin was dry. There were black marks under Peter's eyes, while several scars could be seen on the exposed parts of this young man's body.
Minos then stopped beside Peter and spoke, as he placed one of his hands on Peter's shoulder. "It's been hard for you... But you managed to save your family, and now you can see them in a few days."
Hearing this, Peter was emotional for a moment, remembering the anguish of not knowing if he could see his parents and his little sister again. This young man had not fallen in love with anyone yet and just had his own family, for which he had great feelings.
From the moment Peter left the spiritual academy and became a cultivator, a large part of what he did was to improve the living conditions of his family, which had humble origins.
For all that, he was very moved to know that in the end, things had worked out for them!
As they saw this, Peter's four 'fellow slaves' were there watching everything apprehensively. At the same time, they felt a certain sort of fear for Minos.
This guy had easily destroyed a level 46 cultivator in front of all these people while using his level 42, defeating Kevin and still sealing the movements of dozens of people!
With such a difference in power, these four people could not feel comfortable being close to this 'monster.'
Minos then looked at the four of them and then smiled inwardly. "Why don't you join me? Given the level of the four of you, you're probably the captives who had Black talent and were sold along with Peter, right?"
Minos knew that Peter had been sold with four other people in a lot of captives with Black talent. Then, it was not difficult to imagine that these were the other people with the young Sergeant, as they were the strongest among the freed slaves.
Hearing this, the four took steps back as they tried to take their eyes off Minos. They did not want to refuse someone that strong directly, but neither would they simply accept this suggestion easily.
Seeing this, Peter finally got over his emotions and said with a smile on his face. "Guys, this is my boss, I'm not going to say his name right now because it's not convenient, but he's a very reliable and honest person. So, accept this offer, and you will have many opportunities in the future!"
And seeing how Peter seemed to be trying to help them, like a friend who gives a good advice before an important decision, each of those people had different thoughts in their minds.
Barbara did not want to join any organization that would stop her from seeking revenge for what happened to her.
Milton wanted his freedom to try to start a new life elsewhere.

As for Joey and Robin, these two did not quite know what to do. The old man who had met Peter on that pirate ship from Del was no longer a rookie and had seen more than he would have wanted.
Hence, he wanted to go to a place where he could settle down and maybe have a calmer life. But he had gotten along well with Peter, and he had a feeling that this young man would not put them in a dangerous situation on purpose.
As for Robin, she had left Stone Island to see the world, but everything had gone wrong... She could not decide if she still wanted to try her luck and see the north of the Central Continent or if she should return to her region.
Seeing that none of them had responded to his offer, Minos laughed and said, just before turning away from that place and continuing his business. "You don't need to pledge your lives to me and take an oath here and now. Come with us and decide for yourselves when we arrive in my territory."
After hearing this, their reaction improved a little, but the three of them still had doubts, except for Joey, who seemed to be more willing.
And as soon as Minos walked away, they began to discuss the matter with each other.
"Peter, I know you sound well-meaning, as does your boss, but I'm out of it. I want to have my freedom and find a place for myself on my own." Milton exposed his thoughts, already decided on what he wanted to do.
Robin then took her turn and said. "I don't know if I'll join your boss' organization, but I don't mind going to meet his territory..."
"Cough, ehh, this old man here has nothing else to do, so I'll go with you, boy. I'm curious to see this organization behind you." Old Joey said in a low voice, still weakened from his previous condition.
"Where are we going?" Barbara asked, right after old Joey.
"In the north, I can only say this."
"Okay, since it's on my way back to the Kingdom of the End, I don't mind accompanying you."
...
And while the group was talking to Peter about what each part wanted to do, Minos had come to the side of a group of people kneeling on the ground while Black Plain Army's soldiers gathered around them.
"Young master, these people were servants on this place, slaves of the Chambers family." A soldier came and informed him.
"Oh? And why didn't they leave this place after we finished the fight?"
"They say that if they flee the place from which they were assigned, the Chambers family's punishment would be extremely severe." The sergeant said while having a pitying look under the mask he wore.
These people were so traumatized that they did not dare to flee!
'It seems the Chambers must have ruthless torture practices to circumvent so many people's thoughts of escape…' Minos thought for a moment, seeing this group of captives who were kneeling, staring at the ground.
He then turned his gaze to the soldier who had informed him of this matter and then said. "Get a group and loot everything you find in this place. Anything, even furniture and crumpled paper that are on the floor or in the trash."
"OK, young master!"
And quickly, that soldier left to carry out the mission given by Minos, soon after gathering a group of 20 Sergeants and proceeding to search this base.
Minos then looked for someone else and said. "Burn all the bodies and gather the objects left by these people. I want a report on this before we leave this base."
"Yes, young master!"
And finally, he stopped in front of those servants, being silent for a moment. 'What will I do with you?
