Chapter 506: Conversation

While the Gill family group traveled through the dirt roads of the Brown Kingdom, Mendy and Eda had already arrived in the Dry City.

In fact, right now, the two women were outside Minos' office, waiting for Mia's permission to enter that place.

Both had had no difficulty in their journey here, and as soon as Eda and Mendy had given some orders to the subordinates of that outpost in the City of Waters, they quickly came to the Dry City.

As Eda was a high-ranking soldier, Mendy's entrance here was much softer than those of the other Spiritual Kings who recently visited this city.

After that, it didn't take long for the two to reach the local government mansion, where they were waiting for Minos right now.

In doing so, Mendy was still trying to process in her mind everything she had seen here. She didn't know the Dry City, but she knew that this place shouldn't be as rich as it seemed to be today!

So, she naturally had a lot of thoughts in her mind about this place, things that were making her more and more interested in this deal that Mirya had mentioned in that previous letter.

Previously she had been interested because of the contents of that letter. However, she couldn't compare the feeling of hearing something with seeing it in front of her, feeling it on her skin.

Finally, while she and Eda waited, Mia came out of Minos' office and gestured to both of them. "The young master is waiting for you...."

...

At the moment, no one accompanied Minos in that office, as Abby was taking care of her issues related to the invasion of the Maritime City while Ruth was training. But as soon as Mia left that place, two beautiful women walked through the door and immediately greeted him.

At the same time, the young sovereign rose from his armchair and received these two in his humble workplace. "Hmm, it's a surprise to see you again, Mendy." He said with a smile on his face, right after greeting Eda.

"I can say the same.. But you are to be congratulated on your cultivation speed! The difference between us has diminished a lot since the last time.." She commented with slight redness on her face as she appraised the figure of the young man in front of her.

"Congratulations on reaching level 49, young Minos. You will soon become a Spiritual King!" Eda commented right away.

"Hmm, thank you, Mrs. Eda..." He thanked her when he remembered something and commented to her. "By the way, you can take a week off. After that, I'm afraid that you will have to return to the City of Waters, Mrs. Eda."

"Something happened?"

"Yes, some unexpected events have happened, and our plans for that place will not be able to be fulfilled as previously planned. Anyway, but you can take a few days off before returning there."

"Talk to Dillian. He will tell you the details about what happened." He commented just before that woman said goodbye, leaving just him and Mendy in that spot.

After that, Minos promptly invited Mendy to sit on the sofa of that office while he sat beside her in a leather armchair.

"You are much better than I expected... It seems that aunt Mirya was right. You are very skilled, Minos." Mendy commented, smiling for a moment as she looked into the eyes of the young man beside her.

"Hehe, I can't deny it. But I didn't think you had any doubts about that. After all, back then, you seemed pretty convinced about my abilities.."

Hearing this, the young Spiritual King blushed for a moment, remembering how much she had enjoyed 'being' with Minos on that burning night. She then took a deep breath and asked. "Where are aunt Mirya and older sister Viola? They are in the Dry City, right?"

Minos let his smile fade, closing his eyes for a moment and then answering her. "Well, they are..."

"I already asked my secretary to send someone after Viola for her to come here. As for Mirya, you'll have to wait a little longer."

"What are you talking about?" She asked this already with a serious expression on her beautiful face.

"Well, we recently had an incident with a level 54 cultivator, and Mirya suffered some injuries..."

"What?" She got up from that spot as she said this, shocked.

"Don't worry. Mirya is not at risk. She's unconscious, but in a few weeks, when the specialist we need arrives in town, we can treat her quickly." He said as he gestured for Mendy to calm down.

However, Mendy didn't look convinced by this. She then took a step forward towards Minos and asked him angrily. "Aunt Mirya trusted you when she came here, but you let her life be at risk?"

Upon asking such a question, this young woman slowly began to release her cultivation pressure without realizing it while becoming more and more irritated. She respected Mirya a lot and considered her as one of the most influential people in her foundation as a human being. And so, this young woman couldn't help but be irritated with the person in front of her.

Minos then sighed and then made a move. He quickly pulled that woman by one of her arms, bringing her into his lap. In doing so, he used his arms to hold this young woman's body around her waist.

"Calm down. I don't want you to break the furniture in my office." He said in her ear as she sat on his lap with her back to him.

'Uh? I can't escape? him!' So she thought for a moment when her reason finally surpassed her emotions that were about to get out of control.

Mendy then suppressed her cultivation pressure. "Sorry about that. But I still want to know how you allowed something like this to happen to aunt Mirya. After all, with this defensive barrier at this location, no level 54 cultivator would be a threat to this town!"

"Hmm, about that..." He then said the basics of what had happened before to him and that two women.

After understanding this, Mendy still felt somewhat angry at Minos, as this was his responsibility. But she didn't have the strength to escape from his arms, so she didn't dare do anything.

"Okay, I understand what happened, and I won't try to do anything. Can you release me?"

"No, I think I'll stay with you like this for a few more minutes just to make sure.." He said with a smile on his face as he held the young woman in his lap. "But in the meantime, let's talk business."

"Do you want to talk about business like that?" She asked, somewhat embarrassed by this young man's manner.

"Haha. It's no challenge for me to remain calm and rational even with beauty in my lap. Maybe you can't do the same..."

Mendy then looked at him sideways and said earnestly. "Humph, what are you talking about? It doesn't bother me at all! We can stay that way, but I'm afraid you're not as capable as you say..."

"Hehe, let's see."

"Anyway, Mirya quoted some of my requests in that letter you got, right?" He asked her as he felt the young woman's lower parts begin to move in his lap as if she were trying to tease him.

"Yes, she wrote that you want a non-aggression agreement, business of all kinds, and to get in touch with a certain power on your behalf..."

"That's right, I want those two things, and I want you to help me contact the Hayes family." He agreed with what she had just said.

After hearing Minos' statement, Mendy thought about these points for a moment and then asked. "Some parts of what you expect from us can be quite costly, although it's not that hard to accomplish. But, as you know, no one likes to sign Soul Contracts without extreme necessity."

"And there's this current situation of the Hayes family with the Chambers family..."

"So, to be worthwhile for us, I'm afraid you have to give us something of great value in return." She said, turning on her side and looking into Minos' eyes. "What do you have to offer us?"
