Chapter 1309: Gift

Four days later...

At this moment, Minos was arriving in the capital of Blackrock, in this state that he had yet to get to know better.

But he was not there for tourism, so he would still have to pass through there more quietly in the future to get to know this place that had already 'witnessed' the rise and decay of many powerful families.

Practically the entire Central Continent had a long and bloody history, with moments of peace and great changes, as had happened at the time of the Great Migration. Thus, every state had undergone great changes since the time of Henricus Longus, and Minos had made it a hobby to learn a little about the history of these places.

But when he arrived in this great city, he promptly left it for another time when he had more time and was well received.

At that moment, Minos came across hundreds of Spiritual Saints scattered around that city, all circulating their energies as if they were preparing for war.

Half of those experts were flying over the skies, in the outskirts on his way, ready to receive him.

Minos saw the seriousness in the eyes of the many people flying over the local skies and watching him uglily. He then said. "I didn't expect such a 'warm' welcome upon arriving in this city..."

"What's that, people? Why did you all come to see me?"

The King of this state, who was among the strongest in the surrounding area, looked at Minos while wearing silver armor and said. "Your Majesty Minos Stuart, what do you desire in my territory?"

Blackrock's forces had tried to prevent Minos from reaching this city. But all the efforts of this kingdom to hinder Emperor Stuart's journey, or even make him give up coming to this place, had failed.

So they had prepared all their strongest subordinates to be at this place at the time of Minos' arrival, to fight side by side in case of need.

Minos heard the somber tone of that sovereign and said. "Is that your way of treating an ally, King Blackrock? You treat me as if I am a criminal."

"And aren't you? What you did in Vogel was criminal, Your Majesty." That man said, fearfully but quite sincerely, confident that with so many people on his side, Minos would not cross the line.

The situation between Blackrock and the Black Plain was quite different between the empire and Vogel. Hence, the chances of Minos attacking the royal family and noble houses of this state were minimal.

But there was a slight chance that he would go crazy and attack them, so that man was not 100% sure that he would not have to fight today.

"Criminal? Training my vassals now is a criminal act?" Minos laughed as he looked at his surroundings and shook his shoulders.

"Your Majesty knows that this was not a simple exercise. You were clearly threatening the leaders of Vogel... And now you are threatening the other kingdoms in our alliance to secure your position." The King brandished as his men trembled with fear.

He was talking a little more than they had planned, and now some of them were more fearful of a battle breaking out.

Since they considered Minos a monster on the same level as Harold, they could not help but fear for their lives.

"Am I threatening you?" Minos became more serious. "Where did you get that from?"

"Your Majesty need not play the fool... I heard about your passage through Albano and Rosser. You even fought Iris!"

"Oh? That? That was just a test that Princess Joan asked for... Anyway, I did business with Albano and Rosser and was willing to do the same in Blackrock." Minos said while gesturing as if he were the victim there, being accused of things he had not done.

"We are fine the way we are, Your Majesty. We are not willing to sell out at the cost of our brothers' efforts in Vogel." The King said, firmly resolved to support the noble houses that wanted independence in that territory.

If he abandoned them, those families would not have any alternatives. They would be forced to live under the rule of Minos, which would certainly cause them to suffer heavy losses.

He did not want that to happen to his state, and if it happened, he wanted to have an alternative. So he was determined to support Vogel, even if he had to give up some gains with Minos.

"Oh?" Minos got tired of dialogue with that person and said. "Well, the Black Plain doesn't need to ally with states with no interest in dialogue! If that's what you guys want, let's end our relations here!"

"When you are isolated and threatened, good luck trying to find a light at the end of the tunnel."

'As a parting gift...' Minos put his hands together as his Soul Avatar appeared from his body.

Everyone in the surroundings realized that Minos would do something after his negative words and activated their powers, which were already prepared for this.

'Damn it!'

'Is he really going to attack us? Do we really have no choice but to fight?' The supreme elder of the royal family wondered as he saw the buildings in the surrounding area turning into debris and joining other debris to form large meteors.

Ten of these rock clusters had formed in the blink of an eye, and then Minos had them shoot off in the directions of many of those surrounding him.

"That's the kind of thing you will find in my state if you dare to raise your weapons at me!" He shouted before flying high into the air, intending to leave soon after.

"Shit!"

"Damn, how fast is that?"

People in the surrounding area wondered as they noticed the incredible speed of those clusters of rocks, flying as fast as sound and sweeping through the surroundings.

Due to the chaos that would follow, Minos left that city without leaving a trace behind, disappointed that he did not have a chance to trade there.

As he left, catastrophe spread through that great city, with several elders from local organizations working so the city would not suffer excessively. But, at the same time, many were suffering considerably, receiving damage that would be much more difficult to heal than that of those Minos' victims in Vogel.

Minos had not used lethal force in Vogel, but in this city, he had shown much more of his strength, acting to leave after-effects on those people who wanted to oppose the empire.

No one would die, but these people would keep scars from this event in their memories and bodies.

That was the reminder that Minos wanted to leave for these people!

'Bastard Stuart! I knew I couldn't trust a descendant of the Coleman family!' The King shouted in his mind as he was thrown away by the stone that had hit him.

Meanwhile, the Church Spiritual Saints in this place were watching carefully in the direction from which Minos had fled, realizing that this fellow was far worse than they had thought.

'As expected... Seeing something is always different from imagining something through a story.' A mid-level Spiritual Saint of this rank thought about this as he remembered that Minos' wife had created her own faction within the Church.

Since he was not yet part of one, he promptly began to consider joining these people at this point.

'Maybe I should talk to him?'
