Chapter 2740  In Search of the Group

"I'll see about this mission in the future." Minos promised himself, curious about what Forfex had left for him. "But for now, I have other matters to deal with.

His mind quickly put aside the last request and also Forfex's opportunities. There would be time for him to pursue that. Given how far he would need to progress to the last part of the True Celestial being's inheritance, he had a few thousand years at least at his disposal.

"Now it's time to find you." Minos thought of his women, closing his eyes for a moment, feeling distant flames, almost extinguished, but clearly alive somewhere.

'You did well to absorb the flames I gave you back then. I still don't know if I'll be able to reach you with just that, but it's enough for me to have a bearing for the time being.'

He brought one of his hands close to his face and silver flames appeared from his fingers, creating a small space where three almost extinguished flames grew subtly.

'That's all I can do for now. Wait for me. I'll find you faster than you think.'

He opened his eyes and his flames calmed down. Then his eyes turned white, and scenes from the future appeared in his mind, causing him to see quick but revealing flashes.

He saw a mountainous region and an immense prison, full of alien beings from different origins, suffering in a dark place under heavy surveillance.

But the place itself wasn't everything to Minos' eyes. Around it, a curtain of darkness covered the surroundings, bringing with it an army of dead creatures that surpassed anything he had ever seen.

'Undead? Abby?' he thought, but sincerely doubted it. 'Impossible. How long has it been since I left? Abby wouldn't be able to cause that, unless she'd reached the middle of the 12th stage! But that would imply that I was a few centuries into the last stage of inheritance. That wouldn't make sense!'

He flared up a little as he thought about the possibilities.

Even if it wasn't Abby who was responsible for it, he didn't know where such a place was. He didn't know Uzira and the place must be as big or bigger than Oqia. Until he knew where to look, he was in the dark.

'Somehow, Abby, Gloria and Ruth ended up connected to this prison surrounded by the dead.' He concluded before moving on. 'My priority is to find out where this place is so that I can get to them. If they're in that prison, I'll feel their flame when I reach that place.'

"The best thing for me to look for is the trail of those dead. They will eventually surround that prison, but before that, they have to move... I doubt that such a large group would move without attracting attention."

He quickly found a method of approaching his women and group.

As for which direction to go, any of them would eventually lead him to encounters with beings who knew the area. He decided to head in the direction that the Nautilus' Compass was now indicating.

Without hesitation, he went ahead, flying towards the north of the area, gradually seeing what lay beyond the area that had once been home to the power of that soul fragment.

Given the many skills Minos had, his efficiency in moving was frightening. In less than five minutes, he left the mountainous and extremely dark scenery behind, arriving in a more beautiful area, where a colorful forest stretched farther than the eye could see.

In this place, the surrounding spiritual energy was even stronger than in the area where he had arrived, which made him gradually slow down. Meanwhile, his perception of the surroundings made him notice several valuable resources, plants, and rare jewels that were within reach.

'This place is rich. This must be a long way from the coast where my group arrived. Will I have to cross the continent to reach them?' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

As he descended from where he was floating, Minos took a green crystal in his hands, something diamond-shaped, extremely shiny, and rich in energy. He didn't need to analyze it any longer to know that such a thing could easily supply a world like the Spiritual World with energy for a few millennia.

'It's amazing the difference in dimensions... To think that I was once limited to less than what's in my hands now.' He played with the crystal, thinking of taking it with him and giving it as a present to one of his daughters.

But while Minos was playing with the crystal and observing this rich and beautiful environment, someone appeared among the plants, giving him an ugly look.

"Invader!"

This common word for the current Minos made him look in the direction where a small green-skinned individual, half his size, was standing behind a tree trunk, with a bow and arrow pointed at him.

"You really don't want to do this," Minos said as he put away the crystal he had picked up from the shiny ground where thick brown sand covered the surroundings. "You'll regret it if you do."

Minos' voice seemed to repeat itself in the guy's ears as the world around him moved, even the inanimate elements taking shape as they looked at him with threatening gestures.

The green creature trembled as he felt his aim melt in his eyes, with Minos leaving the corporeal form of a tall human with large seraphim wings, turning into a cloud of silver and gold smoke.

'What kind of powers does this invader have?' he wondered in his mind.

"The kind you shouldn't want as your enemy." Minos appeared behind the little green being, surprising him by lifting him by the neck.

"Now you have a choice, Yon. You will take me to your people and speak on my behalf, or you will burn, until there is nothing left of your body."

Gulp!

The individual trembled with fear, not at Minos' threat, but at the fact that this adversary had read his thoughts and called him by his name!

'Shit! This person isn't normal!' Yon hesitated, not really knowing whether it would be better to die there and risk angering this being or whether it would be better for him to take a step back and bring this individual to his people as a friend.

The second hypothesis would certainly be risky. But at least he could prevent their relationship from being totally contaminated right now.

The level 118 green being nodded affirmatively. "All right, Senior Seer. As long as you don't threaten my people, I'll help you."

"What about the story about me being an invader?"

Cleverly, he changed his tone as he spoke. "Invaders are those incapable of maintaining their freedom. Those who are able have as much right to this land as we natives."

"Hahaha, go ahead, Yon. I'm curious if your people will feel the same way."

The green individual clutched his neck in pain, but his thoughts were on what Minos had just said.
