After a few minutes since Minos' first meeting with Abby's parents, Eliot and Nicole had welcomed this young man and Ruth to the residence. They had asked their daughter to show those two young people around until they came to a luxurious living room.
The two then took this opportunity to put on less casual clothing sets until finally, they headed towards that living room. But while they had done this, they had many ideas in their minds.
Previously, they had been impressed that Abby had agreed to share Minos with another woman and that a Spiritual King had accepted the same thing. After all, this was very rare to happen.
And despite the slight difference in level between Ruth and Minos, by the standards of this region, it was like the difference between heaven and earth. While there were very few Spiritual Kings in the area, there were at least 100 times as many people close to Minos' level!
Therefore, people like Ruth were generally much more highly valued than those like Minos. That is why they had been impressed that this young woman had agreed to share Minos with Abby.
Plus, Eliot and Nicole knew that Albert's inheritance shouldn't be enough for Minos to grow safely or even create his own organization... So, they felt that having Ruth by his side was even better for this young man.
Moreover, as much as they had doubts regarding Minos' cultivation speed, these two had no interest in pursuing this matter. That was because such a thing would be very intimate to each cultivator, and they had no right to inquire about such.
On the other hand, it was not so impressive that Minos had such a cultivation speed while still being below the 6th stage. That is because while achieving what he did was difficult, they knew that raising someone with such rapid cultivation was not impossible.
That was because the northern region of the Central Continent didn't significantly limit the cultivation speed of cultivators below the 6th stage.
Thus, unless he maintained such a high cultivation speed after reaching the 6th stage, they wouldn't lose their composure and ask questions they shouldn't ask to a junior of the younger generation.
Anyway, they had been thinking about these things until they entered that room, dressed discreetly but elegantly, making them look less like partners and more like a mother and father...
They saw Minos and the two women sitting on a large sofa in the middle of that room, talking in low voices, waiting for them.
Eliot then looked at Minos and Abby before finally sitting down next to his wife in front of those young people. "Minos, Abby, you two are here today for something more serious, right?"
"Hmmm." The two made the same sound as they nodded their heads.
"I already understand everything. You don't need to say anything more." He said calmly, at the same time, as he turned sideways to his wife and smiled. "I agree."
"You agree?" Ruth was the first to say so due to her surprise at this statement. 'He agrees to betray the kingdom so quickly?'
"Father, I'm afraid you don't..." Abby was about to say something when her father's voice once again sounded in that place.
"Rest assured, Abby. Although I wouldn't like to see my little daughter leave so quickly, because of this young man's background and what I have known of Albert, I give my blessing for you to marry..."
"What?" The three youths said simultaneously as they finally realized Eliot's misunderstanding.
"Daughter, that's what you want, right? Don't worry, mom supports you, as long as you want to do it!" Nicole smiled as she said this to Abby.
Upon hearing such a thing, Abby looked at Minos helplessly as she felt a mix of feelings, from happiness to shame. But as she felt the warmth of one of her beloved's hands on her back, she soon calmed down and heard his voice.
"This is an important matter for both of us. And I'm glad to know that you support my relationship with Abby, but I hope we can leave it a little further down the road..."
"After all, we still need to settle down before moving forward with something this important. Isn't that right, Abby?" Minos looked at his girlfriend, who was still very ashamed at the moment.
"Hmm, that's right. We need to create a stable home before we talk about this, mother, father." She readily agreed with Minos as she looked at her parents.

When Eliot and Nicole heard this, they realized that it wasn't the time to talk about such things. That is, how could Minos and Abby get married while this young man was only the ruler of the Black Plain?
He had certainly worked hard to reach level 49 in such a short time. Still, although this was very good, he probably didn't have enough funds for marriage and family due to the small amount of time he had.
'Indeed... The Black Plain is not suitable for Abby, and since Minos is almost at level 50, it won't be good for him to stay there either!'
'Maybe we can accept him into our family!' Eliot thought about it as he looked into his wife's eyes and seemed to realize that she had thought about it too.
"So..." Eliot was about to speak but stopped midway when suddenly young Stuart began to talk.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, actually, we are here today to negotiate with the Miller family."
"Oh?" Nicole said in surprise as she thought about what Minos was going to say next. 'It seems that he isn't bad! He wants to show us that he can offer things to the family and won't just be dead weight!'
She then looked at Abby and smiled at her. 'Good girl! He's not bad at all!'
Minos then continued his speech, looking steadily at that couple in front of him. "The Black Plain has very great potential, and even if we are far from reaching it, we can already be considered quite capable at this point."
"And if the Miller family helps us... Or rather, don't harm us. Then, in the future, we can help you reach an even higher level in this region!"
"What?" The two simultaneously asked while having expressions of doubt on their faces.
Eliot then looked sideways at his wife and saw that she seemed to have the same doubt concerning if this was serious.
They then heard Abby's sweet voice, "Mother, father, Minos isn't kidding when he says this. The Black Plain will hold a critical position in our region in the future, and the family has to be in agreement with that to make it even stronger!"
"I, besides being his girlfriend, am already part of Minos' forces." She said confidently.
"Daughter, you..." Nicole hesitated, realizing the implications of what Abby had spoken.
She didn't believe anything about the Black Plain that they were saying. And with that, she had focused all her attention on this delicate information that Abby had just spoken.
"Abby, you shouldn't act so carelessly without talking to us first!" Eliot said with a slightly disappointed tone.
But before they could say more, Abby said again. "Believe us. The Black Plain has much more potential than our family, mother, father. As an example, I was only able to reach my current level because of the resources of Minos' organization."
"And today, even though I am only at level 48, I could fight on equal terms against a noble with level 50 cultivation!"
"If you don't believe what we are talking about, I can prove our assertions to you!" She said as she stood up from that couch and clenched her fists.
Upon hearing this, Eliot and Nicole frowned as they observed the confidence in Abby's words.
And after a short fraction of time when silence covered that place, Nicole then smiled and asked. "Little Abby, you wouldn't be challenging your old mother. Would you?"
