Chapter 56: Traveling to the Yellow City

"This is good. We will prepare to leave in 2 days then," Elen said with a smile on her face.

She was already looking forward to resolving this issue and returning to Stone Island. She liked to see the improvements made in the Dry City, but this place still lacked many things in relation to the Old Stone city. So, she didn't want to stay here for long.

"In fact, I have a suggestion for you." She said, looking into Minos's eyes.

"Oh! Tell me."

"Have you heard of the Spiritual Tournament? This is a good event for you to meet the future governors of this region of the Central Continent."

Minos then shook his head and said. "Hmm, I've heard of this competition. In fact, after we get back from the Kingdom of the Waves, I will be training for a few weeks, and then I will go to the Cromwell Kingdom to participate in this tournament."

'As expected... He must have heard that from that woman who is always with him. I heard that she has a very abnormal strength...' Elen thought to herself, hearing Minos's response.

She had heard from one of her servants that Ruth had beaten three guards escorting the young master Luke. Because of her, Minos had been able to escape the clutches of that arrogant young blond.

She also started to think about the implications this woman could bring to her business with Minos. 'Is she someone from an empire?' Elen thought.

This made sense to her. After all, in addition to Ruth's unbelievable strength, Minos was a big unknown in her eyes. 'Maybe an empire is helping him out of the shadows?'

Minos then continued after noticing Elen's thoughtful expression. "But don't worry about it. I have no interest in going to the Flaming Empire. I will participate in the Spiritual Tournament to do what you suggested. Meet these future sovereigns of the northern region of the Central Continent."

Elen relaxed a little and blew out a silent breath upon hearing this. She then said. "Hmm, I understand."

"Well, since we have solved everything, I am going to go out and make some preparations. See you in 2 days." Minos said before saying goodbye to Elen and her bodyguard, Eduard.

...

After a while, Minos was in his office, along with butler Dillian, Sergeant Pyke, and secretary Mia.

Pyke then said. "Young master, we are preparing the 24 soldiers, who have already reached level 40, to accompany you on this trip. There will also be another 30 men, who are between levels 35 and 39."

Of the 25 soldiers who had reached the 5th stage, only Sergeant Pyke would not go on this mission to the Kingdom of the Waves. Minos had decided that this time, Pyke would stay in the Dry City to run this place during his absence.

"Grandpa Dillian, on this trip, I want you to accompany me. We may need your medical techniques since we do not know exactly the enemy force." Minos said with a serious look on his face.

Butler Dillian, after all, was not a warrior but someone who focused his techniques on one area, which was medicine. Like him, doctors were much different from alchemists, blacksmiths, and array masters. This is because they did not produce any type of external item.

What a doctor offered in this world was nothing more than healing techniques. They could also be classified as support professionals, which could be very useful in battles.

After all, people were always injured in these types of events, but spiritual healing pills could not be used all the time since it was very expensive. For this reason, doctors were very useful in missions, such as the one that the Minos group was preparing to go to.

Dillian then said with a smile on his face. "Hehe, it's okay. It was time for this old man to see some action."

"As for Secretary Mia, at this time, I want you to help Sergeant Pyke manage the city. I know he has to take care of the Black Plain Army, so he will not always be able to solve all the administrative problems here." Minos said, looking at Mia.

She then responded resolutely. "You can leave it, young master. I will not disappoint you."

After that, the group split up, leaving only Minos in the office. He then returned to the Spatial Kingdom to observe the two youths who were training there at this time.

Alison and Lee had already returned to the Spatial Kingdom since Minos had asked Dillian to bring them back. Minos intended to leave them there until he went to the Cromwell Kingdom, which was supposed to happen within the next three months.

Minos then observed the two training their fighting techniques while eating a spiritual apple next to the large house that was near the lake.

The two youths then noticed his presence and soon came running towards him.

"Master, can you give us some tips?" Lee asked in his childish voice.

"Hmm, what do you want to know?"

After that, Minos began to advise the two youths while making some gestures to demonstrate to the two how they should act to increase their proficiency in fighting.

After a while, Lee and Alison continued their fighting training while Minos watched them closely.

...

Time passed, and all preparations for the mission to the Kingdom of the Waves were ready. All 54 soldiers, who were going on this trip, were already in their respective carriages while escorted Minos, Ruth, Dillian, Elen, and Eduard.

They traveled to the Yellow City, which was about 1,500 kilometers from the Dry City, heading north. According to the information that the group of Minos had obtained with Elen, this city had no noble family and was governed by a regent.

And just like the Black Plain, hardly any noble family passed through the place or cared about the security and order there. As for the royal family, they were even less interested in that place, which the Brown family was to the region under the command of Minos.

At least it was like that until a few months ago.

However, Elen also had no further information about the city since some of the Nash family delivery men, who traveled through this place, did not send any more news from that region and were reported as missing.

As far as Elen knew, before that time, the Yellow City had many groups of bandits, but they had not yet shown any interest in publicly taking over the government of that region.

At least, for those who received news of what was happening in that place, the actions of these groups were moderate. And as long as the merchants paid some 'fees,' they could pass through the region smoothly.

"Miss Elen, do you have information about the leader of these bandits?" Dillian asked calmly.

Elen shook her head, denying that. "I do not know. But he is not yet a Spiritual King. I am sure of that."

"From our information, some of these bandits must be famous fugitives from different parts of the Central Continent. But if any of them had already reached the Spiritual King stage, they certainly wouldn't be here."

"I don't know if you know, but there is a large organization of assassins in the north of the Central Continent. It is called, Scourges of the Devil and only accepts renowned criminals who have already reached level 50!"

"Because of that, if any of them had reached that level, he would certainly leave this region to join the forces of the Scourges of the Devil. And even if the Yellow City is a little stronger than the Dry City, no Spiritual King would live in a place like this." Elen said with a severe expression.

'Scourges of the Devil, huh...' Dillian thought to himself.

This was the organization's name that had dispatched two assassins to help the Silva family kill the former General Albert.

The Scourges of the Devil, despite being a criminal organization focused on assassinations, they were almost as strong as some of the weakest kingdoms in the region. And that was why any large families did not pursue them in this part of the Central Continent.

Unless there were a big grudge, no one would want to mess with that organization. After all, although they are not that numerous, all the members were Spiritual Kings!

And to make matters worse, no one knew where the headquarters of this group was. So, it was complicated for anyone to act openly against the Scourges of the Devil, making this organization a dream for many of the criminals in that region of the continent.

This was the reason that made Elen so sure that there were no Spiritual Kings in the Yellow City.

"Hmm, I understand," Minos said while having a thoughtful look on his face. This was an organization on his list of vengeance in the future.

Butler Dillian had already told Minos about this group and their involvement in the attack that Albert had suffered.

...

After that, two days passed quickly, and the group of Minos had already covered most of the distance to the Yellow City. They could reach their destination within the next few hours, and it was already beginning to prepare to set up camp near the city.

...

In a particular mansion in the Yellow City, a man came running to the office where the bandits' leader was. "Chief Gul, we found that fox and her cub..."
