Chapter 554: Casual Conversation

Upon hearing her parents' positive comments, Abby smiled and hugged them without giving too many details to the two about such progress.

Obviously, Nicole and Eliot were curious to know more about Abby's experiences, especially related to this brutal advance of spiritual power.

After all, the last time they had seen this young woman, she was only at level 42. Considering the time that had passed, neither of them had expected this young woman to get as close at the 6th stage of cultivation as she currently was!

But, despite wanting to hear Abby's story for the past two years, they hadn't asked anything specific, nor had this young woman mentioned anything that would encourage them to do so.

Finally, after lovingly and affectionately hugging Abby, her parents took their attention away from the young woman to see those two standing there.

Of course, both Abby's mother and her father had noticed the presence of Minos and Ruth in that place. After all, one was at level 49, while the other was already at level 51, powerful cultivations for the region standards!

Although someone at level 49 would not be considered an expert in this region, Abby's parents naturally would not underestimate him because he had not reached the 6th stage. After all, he looked very young!

"Abby, who are those two?" Nicole quietly asked her daughter as she looked in the direction of Minos and Ruth.

At the same time as this, Eliot also paid attention to those two as he fiddled with his robe, trying not to look so casual in front of these people.

He was stronger than the two and would behave like a senior in this situation. But it was never good to make a bad first impression... And since certain people would always take opportunities to badmouth others, he didn't want to look so casual in front of these two newcomers.

Anyway, after hearing his mother's voice, Abby finally introduced those two. "Mother, father, this is Ruth." She waved to the black-haired young woman next to young Stuart and then waved to her boyfriend. "And this is Minos Stuart, my boyfriend."

"Hi..." Ruth said in a low voice.

Minos, on the other hand, smiled and said. "Nice to meet you, mother-in-law, father-in-law." 

Upon hearing this, those two Spiritual Kings stood motionless in the same spot they were in, as they looked in Minos' direction with open mouths, surprised at all this sudden information.

Abby had always been such a reserved girl. So who would have thought that in such a short time, she would return home accompanied by a boyfriend?

Her parents were naturally shocked!

"You..." Eliot looked sharply at Minos as he tried to accept this information.

On the other hand, Nicole had already taken a step beyond her husband. 'That boy stole my little girl!'

Finally, Abby's face was as red as a tomato right now. She was naturally proud to be with the person she loves, but she was presenting Minos to her mother and father... So, she couldn't help but be nervous and embarrassed.

"Boy, I hope you take responsibility for what you did to little Abby!" Nicole said with a sharp tone.

And upon hearing this, Eliot immediately perceived something that he hadn't even noticed before... He was getting little by little more grumpy about the whole thing, feeling as if he had been exposed to a cruel truth.

Being a father was demanding... You raise your child with all the love and care, and then one day she grows up and some guy you don't know, sometimes some punk, comes along and takes her away...

But while Eliot had his thoughts in mind, Abby stepped forward and said ashamedly. "Mom, what are you talking about? Please don't say something like that, Minos and I already get along very well!"

"I'm sure you do!" Nicole said as she looked at Minos steadily. 

'What drama! Will something like that happen to me in the future?' Ruth thought to herself, watching the whole thing with interest.

And finally, Minos smiled and spoke again. "Hehe, I will naturally take good care of Abby, father-in-law, mother-in-law, don't worry!"

Upon hearing this, Abby's parents felt slightly discomfort at how he seemed to act so comfortably in this situation. Still, the tension in their minds slowly began to subside.

They had been a little shocked by this unexpected introduction, something they had honestly not expected to happen for at least a few decades... But as they thought about it more, as much as they disliked having their little girl mature to such a degree so quickly, they had both realized that at least Minos was not weak.

Minos was already very close to reaching Nicole's level and was stronger than Abby!

Such a thing was highly esteemed in the northern region of the Central Continent, where usually people of similar levels would have relationships with each other.

In particular, women generally interacted with men who were stronger than them or on the same level. But this was not some machismo that tried to put women in lower positions. No, far from it. The problem was that most women in this world were not interested in those weaker than themselves!

Consequently, such a thing had become a standard. Usually, couples in this world were composed of a man of a slightly higher level than his wife.

Of course, there were other types of couples, but they were in the minority in this vast world. 

Anyway, because of this, Eliot and Nicole were naturally already more inclined to approve of this relationship of Abby and Minos.

"Wait a moment..." Eliot said this just after he remembered Minos' full name that Abby had said earlier. "Are you by any chance the son of the late General Albert Stuart?"

"Yes, I am." Minos said promptly, not caring to hide this information.

He was already going to expose to this family that he came from the Black Plain in a short time. So that way, it would make no sense for him to hide this information from these two.

"So you..." Eliot looked at Minos once again as he remembered what had happened about ten years ago.

He knew that Minos had been in a coma for quite a while and had not even started cultivating at the right age. And yet, here was Minos, having already reached level 49!

'A genius!' He thought to himself as he massaged one of Nicole's shoulders and one of his daughter's. He was slowly becoming more and more comfortable with this relationship of Abby and Minos...

Not only because Minos was powerful for his age, but also because Eliot knew where this young man came from!

Hence, he could understand this boyfriend of Abby's personality a little better. Consequently, he felt more secure with it all.

"So you are his son..." Nicole said in a low voice as she suddenly turned to Ruth and said. "What about you? Abby didn't mention your last name. Aren't you from a big regional family? Where do you come from? Are you friends with little Abby?"

Upon hearing these questions, Ruth finally stopped watching the drama in front of her and said. "I am not from a regional family... As for where I come from, that's a place you certainly don't know, so it's not worth talking about."

"Lastly, for the moment, Abby and I are not friends. We are compe..." She paused for a moment and then rephrased her speech. "Cough, cough, I'm also Minos' girlfriend."

"What?" Abby's parents said simultaneously, as they were even more surprised by this.

'How can that be? Abby grew up in a monogamous household... How did she accept this so easily?' Nicole wondered as she stared at Minos and Ruth and then looked at her daughter with a doubtful expression.

On the other hand, Eliot was even more pleased with Minos, even though his daughter had a competitor. 'That young man is a genuine beast!'

He naturally followed monogamous ideologies as well... But he couldn't help but admire a young man like Minos who already had a girlfriend of a higher level than his and still made her accept dividing him with another woman, one of a lower level!

It must be said that even though a large part of that world population followed polygamous ideas. But that did not mean that the women who followed this readily accepted a new person's joining in the relationship!

Thus, Eliot had naturally already realized that Minos must be very remarkable!

'Looks like Albert didn't have a bad son...'
