The Rise of the Black Plain

Wallace's group had just arrived at this place when they had seen that their target was already waiting for them in the middle of that main avenue of the Yellow City.

At that moment, Minos was already standing in that place next to the two specialists sent by the Hayes family to help him perform this scheme.

Since Minos had watchers from the Black Plain in this city, he already knew when these 'guests' would arrive. As such, he was already waiting for Wallace's group while having a smile on his face.

And when those members of the Chambers family saw this from the skies where they had come from, they soon understood the situation and didn't bother to try to attack Minos by surprise.

Their target had already made his plans. So, it would be better for them to act cautiously, together, without risking too much by going after Minos individually.

So, they had not taken long to land a few dozen meters ahead of those three people until they reached the positions where Ronald and Paul had seen them.

"Those two damned old men are already here..." One of the Chambers family elders said this as he looked at the two old men standing side by side with Minos.

Of those two envoys from the Hayes family, one was at level 54, and the other was at level 55. And as enemies, those people in Wallace's group knew these two very well.

"Hmm, it seems that even if we used our fastest flying beasts, those two mummies still arrived before us in that place..."

"That doesn't matter... If it's just them, we'll be able to finish with everything and come back before the sun even sets!" Another person said when they finally got close enough to Minos' group to feel that there were no other people in that place.

They obviously couldn't feel the fluctuations of Minos' soldiers in that secret base since that place was an underground base covered by thick walls.

As for the Spiritual Kings who were spectating on the top floor of the local government mansion, well, only Paul had drawn attention to those individuals.

As for Ernest and those men in that spiritual judge's group, most of them had much lower levels than these Chambers family nobles. One of them even looked like a person near his own death...

As such, that person from before didn't see how these people could threaten them except by unique tactics, which was still causing them to be cautious in this place.

Finally, upon seeing the figure of Minos, Wallace couldn't help but feel a bloodlust deep within his being while waves of hatred infused his heart.

'That bastard, I finally found him!' He thought as he clenched his fists tightly, looking steadily at Minos and ignoring the rest of the people there. "Today, I will avenge your life, little Leroy!"

Finally, Minos said his first words to these mortal enemies. "Revenge? Is that what you guys came here for?"

"Haha, I fear that after today, more of these twisted beings will want revenge against you, young Minos..." One of those two old men from the Hayes family commented provocatively, laughing at the fact that these fools thought they were strong enough to take the life of the young man next to him.

"It's only natural..."

"Today, we will exterminate half of the Chambers family's high-level elders, so those poor devils in Persephone will continue in this futile pursuit!" The other expressed while he had a smiling countenance on his wrinkle-filled face.

"Humph! Say what you want, ignorant fools!"

"Today, we will wash this city ground with the blood of your bodies!"

"It's only three fools..." Wallace then looked in the direction where Paul was standing and asked aloud. "You, I know you... You are..."

"The patriarch of the Cohen family!"

"Hmm, this is indeed me," Paul said aloud, still standing in the same place as before, at this moment prepared to run in that direction and join the battle.

The supreme elder of the Chambers family then frowned and said. "Paul Cohen, as a patriarch of a regional noble family, I naturally respect you. But if you stand in our way today, I fear that your family will become our enemy!"

After hearing such a threat, the veins in Paul's forehead were already beginning to tremble as he stepped forward and was about to say something. "I..."

However, almost instantly to that, the young and vigorous voice of Minos sounded through that place, causing Paul not to continue his speech. "You don't have to worry about the presence of mister Paul or the others in this place. I will fight you alone..."

"The rest are just here to watch!"  He finished speaking as he looked coldly in the direction of those six, already with a bow in his mouth.

"What?" Everyone in that place said simultaneously, those newcomers, the two Hayes family elders, Paul, Ronald, and Ernest.

'He's crazy!'

'How can he think that a mere level 50 Spiritual King can take on all of us?' So, one of the level 54 Spiritual Kings of the Chambers family thought to himself while a mocking smile appeared on his face.

On the other hand, Minos' allies were no less shocked.

'What is he talking about? Wasn't the point of the two of us helping him in this fight?'

'That's crazy! Even I wouldn't attempt something so challenging!' Paul considered,  looking with wide eyes at Minos. He then turned to Ernest. "Ernest, that... Wouldn't it be better if..." He was about to say something but was soon interrupted by that Black Plain Army Lieutenant.

Gulp!

"Rest assured, mister Paul. The young master has deep knowledge regarding the difference in power at each level of the 6th stage."

"We must trust him." He said, but he had doubts in his mind at the same time. 'Why is the young master saying this? I know he's already gotten stronger since he reached level 50, but that's an exaggeration!'

'Will he be able to fight all these opponents?' He wondered as he steadily looked at Minos.

"Hahahaha, it's not a surprise that this is coming from a person who refused to join one of the empire's sects. Hahahaha, you truly are an idiot!" A level 55 Spiritual King expressed while at the same time tapping one of Wallace's shoulders.

"Supreme elder, don't take that fool's words seriously. Let's just get it over with at once!"

"This worm is playing hard to humiliate us even more!" Then, finally, Wallace said something as he turned redder and redder.

He then turned away and gave his command. "I'll deal with this bastard alone. The rest of you take care of those others in the surrounding area!"

"Yes, supreme elder!" The five individuals shouted simultaneously, already preparing to start fighting in this place.

Meanwhile, Minos had just heard the protest of those two Hayes family elders.

"Elders, don't worry. Before, I wanted to act with you two because I thought we were going to face a greater force..."

"But if it's just them, I'll use this as training!" He said loudly so that everyone there could hear him perfectly.

'A training?' Paul thought to himself as his mouth dropped open in shock.

"Miserable bastard!"

"Say what you want. We will torture you slowly until you beg for your death!"

"We'll see if you're all that!"

"Humph, it's a shame that little Leroy died at the hands of a demented man..." Wallace said as he moved toward Minos. "But I will clean up that dishonor now!"

At the same time, all those Spiritual Kings of the Chambers family were already preparing to run in those other individuals' directions.

However, the two elders of the Hayes family had not contradicted Minos' decision. They were already moving away from that place.

As for those others on the upper floor of that local government mansion, Ernest had prevented them from trying to get involved in this conflict.

Finally, Minos began to circulate his energy as he looked in Wallace's direction. "So you're the father of that disgusting insect, huh?"

"It's like the saying goes... The apple doesn't fall far from the tree."

"Well, never mind. Since you court death, I'll do you the favor of sending you to the same place as that worm!"
