Chapter 571: Another Attempt

A few hours after showing the cultivation techniques to the four nobles of the Miller family, Minos left his mansion and headed towards the General Hospital.

By now, it was already late afternoon in this city, and the orange of the sunset could be seen on the horizon, forming a beautiful picture for anyone who was on the streets of this town.

And in this hectic late afternoon, with many people and carriages passing through this city's wide streets and avenues, Minos was walking unaccompanied on one of the local sidewalks, not far from his destination.

He had finished taking care of all the daily responsibilities he had for today, and soon after, he left that place with the intention of analyzing Mirya's situation.

At first, that poison master had told him that the initial treatment of Viola's mother would last up to a month, which would be the time needed for Mirya to come out of the coma. Then, after that, there would be a secondary treatment that would last about three months, which would result in that woman's return to spiritual cultivation.

And since it had been almost three weeks since Regina arrived in Dry City, Minos was curious to know Mirya's current situation.

He and Abby had been traveling for two weeks, and as such, Mirya's treatment should somehow have been delayed. But from the beginning, that experienced poison master had considered such treatment without considering the participation of Minos' girlfriend.

Hence, Minos was not so concerned that Mirya's recovery had somehow been altered.

Anyway, after some time walking around Dry City, Minos finally arrived at the room where Mirya was in the local hospital.

Upon entering that place, he immediately saw a woman lying on a hospital bed, while her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be sleeping peacefully.

She had utterly green hair, and there were several purple spots on her skin from the parts of her body that were not covered. But unlike her previous appearance, there were no longer any burned parts of Mirya's body, almost as if her skin had been toasted.

But although at the moment she didn't look healthy, her skin looked much more like what a human would have and less like a lump of coal. That is, one could already see the outermost tissue in place of the many burns from before.

And while Mirya was lying in that place, two doctors used their spiritual techniques on her unconscious body. That was causing two blue auras to circulate her body, slowly healing the much damage her organs had suffered.

On the other hand, Regina was sitting in an armchair in that room, cleaning her face with a silver handkerchief. She had just finished a session of poison treatment on that unconscious woman, so she was somewhat exhausted at this point.

"Oh? You've finally returned?" She looked in Minos' direction and asked this while putting away her handkerchief from before and getting up from that armchair.

Regina had received a severe mental blow from Minos previously when this young man had rejected her. After that, she had spent days with that disappointment in her mind, furious that a 20-year-old had not fallen for her...

That may seem insignificant to some, but it was far more significant than one could imagine to a woman who could be considered one of the most beautiful in this region!

Even more so, considering that Regina had always been a person capable of manipulating and seducing with certain ease... Hence, when Minos rejected her, she had had to deal with this kind of situation for the first time in her life and had been struggling to understand the mind of her 'prey.'

And seeing this young man in this room, she could not let herself appear weakened. On the contrary, she had to expose the best possible image to him so that her next attempt would not result in another failure.

'He is stronger than before... At this rate, he will reach level 50 in less than three months!' She thought for a moment as she looked at Minos' shoulders.

And finally, she heard the voice of that sovereign. "I just got b...from my trip yesterday... Anyway, tell me how Mirya's situation is."

Upon hearing her 'prey,' Regina immediately became a little soberer and began to explain. "Well, she's doing much better. If I'm not making any mistakes, then she should awaken from her sleep in 2 or 3 days."

"Oh?"

"But she will be quite weakened due to the injuries she has sustained and also because she has been without spiritual energy in her body for so long. But after that, the treatment will become more efficient than it is now since her body's responses will be much more favorable. Thus, the effects will be a little better."

"Also, that doctor of yours is almost increasing his level. Or rather, all those doctors of yours increase in level quite frequently, so those three months might be shortened a bit..." She said as she walked to Minos' side and watched the doctors taking care of Mirya.

"Hehe, that's good news." He finally took his gaze off Mirya and then looked steadily into the fairy face of that woman with purple hair and eyes. As he did so for a brief moment, he took hold of one of Regina's hands and pulled her toward the exit of that place.

"You could have more frequent level increases if you joined my organization..."

"Speaking of which, have you made up your mind about my offer?"

After they reached an empty part of that floor of the General Hospital, Regina then turned to the young man next to her and began to stare at him.

As she did so, if anyone walked by where they were standing and looked at them, all they would see would be a man and a woman, staring steadily into each other eyes. Meanwhile, Regina's breasts were rising and falling with her breathing as she looked up slightly, with a resolute expression on her face.

But she said nothing as she stared at him.

Minos then said. "You have been here for several days now, Regina. What is still preventing you from joining my army? Is it just your pride?"

"Pride? Tsk!"

"If I cared so much about my pride, I wouldn't be one of the highest-level poison masters in our region!" She said in a low voice so that only she and Minos could hear.

"So you are just a fool?" He asked with a smile on his face as he placed one of his hands on one of Regina's shoulders.

"You!" She said this with her mouth closed while pressing her jaw tightly.

Minos then held back his laughter and then stepped forward, getting even closer to Regina's body until his mouth was next to her left ear. "Ah! Regina, it seems that you haven't relaxed in a long time... Is that the problem?" He said while his two hands held her arms.

Hearing this, Regina felt a slight shiver run through her body as she felt the warmth of Minos' hands on her arms. But she still had an irritated expression on her face and was standing in the same position as before, showing how angry she was with him.

However, in the next second, Regina suddenly opened her mouth in surprise when she finally felt Minos' two arms embrace her waist.

"Ah! Regina, it must be hard to bear so much pressure in wanting to be the best, no?"

"You don't have to be so strict with yourself. Give it up the tricks you've used to get this far, and let me carry it for you. You can still achieve your goals under me." He whispered in one of her ears as he hugged her body, already feeling how flexible she was.

Gulp!

She swallowed her saliva after feeling a little nervous for the first time in so long. However, before she let herself get lost in this feeling, she pressed one of her legs and put her mind in order. 'Is he finally falling under my charm?' She thought to herself while trying not to change her expression from before.

historical

'This is my chance!'

And then she hugged Minos' waist and tried to kiss him once more...

However, she had failed once again, as she found one of Minos' cheeks and not his lips.
