Chapter 958 Date


    "That mission you passed to the local mercenaries has already beenpleted," Abby said while looking into his eyes.


    Seeing the look on his fiancée''s face, Minos immediately questioned her. "Oh? Is there something you want to tell me?"


    She smiled. "Yes, during this mission, some mercenaries discovered that regional pirates are doing outside work for that group, the Blood Triangle Pirates."


    "They were in search of a map."


    "A map?" Minos'' eyes widened in interest as he remembered the interrogation he had done with four Spiritual Kings of the Hargraves family.


    As he considered this, he readily associated such a map with the fabric those people had told him about.


    But as he did so, he suddenly remembered something that had happened almost nine years ago, when he had first left Dry City.


    He then looked at his spatial ring and summoned a particr item that he had collected from Darell Silva''s storage item.


    As he did so, Abby immediately saw an aged fabric fall onto her fiancé''s work table, something that looked old and dirty.


    "That..."


    As he heard the sweet voice of hispanion, Minos looked at that item carefully, seeing that there was indeed a map there.


    "So, that''s it?" He wondered, curious to know if that was such a map.


    At the time he had passed through the old Maritime City, Minos had participated in an auction, in which he had bought a sword that had made the young master of the Silva family try to eliminate him.


    But at that time, Darell had bought that auctioned map, which was supposed to be from some great empire in the southern part of the Central Continent.


    Because Darell had gone after Minos on Stone Ind a few dayster and eventually left this world at his hands, Abby''s fiancé had inherited such a map.


    But he had never thought that such a thing had value. And even if it had, Minos had not bothered with it. He already had the Spatial Kingdom on his side and did not need to run after resources like ordinary people.


    But upon discovering the interest of that organization in a map and associating the fabric in question with the possible location illustrated on it, Minos could not help but think that this was the item sought after.


    With that, the value of that had naturally increased for Minos.


    He then put away said map and looked at Abby with a smile on his face.


    "What is it?" She asked, giggling.


    "I think that piece of fabric is what that group is looking for..."


    "I wonder why they want it so badly?"


    "Maybe this will lead to treasure?" She suggested, not knowing what to say.


    "Then if it is a treasure, we should keep it for ourselves, shouldn''t we?"


    She then felt his arms squeeze her tighter, realizing that he was getting excited once again. "Sure!"


    "Hehe, in the future, we''ll try to capture pirate groups from this region. Let''s see if they can help us confirm if this is the item."


    "If it is, let''s wait for the future to see what we do with it." He said this and then kissed his fiancée, smelling the yummy scent she always had.


    But Abby soon used one of her hands to push on his shoulders, stopping what he was trying to start. "Minos, you''re a beast, you know that?" She smiled.


    "Let''s leave it to continue thister. For now, let me take care of those official matters we talked about..." She then turned a little red and whispered in one of his ears. "In the meantime, I''ll recover my best condition so we can have some funter."


    "Oh? That sounds interesting." He smiled at her just before lightly biting those lips of hers and kissing her for a few more seconds.


    Pa!


    After separating their bodies, he patted one of her lower cheeks and smiled. "All right, go do your chores."


    "I also have to visit Ruth and take care of other matters."


    "Hehe. Enjoy your meeting with her!" Abby sincerely said before she left that ceughing.


    She had already gotten used to sharing her man with Ruth. So, there was no reason for her to feel jealous over such words. On the contrary, she felt happy that he would see that woman and not one of the many others he had rtions with.


    So, it did not take long for her to get on with her business. At the same time, Minos stayed just a few more minutes in that office, chatting with Mia, before finally making his way to his army headquarters.


    As he did so, the beautiful redhead who was still waiting for him was soon walking beside him, chatting while blindly following Minos'' path.


    ...


    "Minos, answer me honestly. Did your words that night mean anything?" Gloria asked him as she walked beside him, a little nervous about talking to him about it.


    "Or was all that a lie to you? Were you ying with me?"


    Upon hearing this, Minos looked at her seriously, not understanding where she had gotten these absurd ideas from. "Gloria, I merely didn''t tell you my real name or show you my strength. After all, I was on a mission against the people you would meet."


    "How could I so easily tell you the truth in that situation? I would have all my ns messed up!"


    "But everything besides my strength and name was true. Every word I said to you that night was indeed my interest..."


    "And it still is." He said this as he took one of her hands and smiled.


    After that, he stopped walking down the sidewalk they were on, brought his face close to Gloria''s, and whispered in one of her ears. "What about you? Were you fooling me when you said you would give me a chance to know you better if I were as strong as a Spiritual Emperor?"


    Gloria''s face then turnedpletely red, with her understanding well what Minos was saying. "You bastard!"


    "I''m talking about my hurt feelings, and all you want is this?"


    "Oh? Did you feel hurt?" He looked at her with interest, promptly using his hands to bring her into his embrace. "I''m sorry, Gloria."


    "Things between us started strangely. Why don''t we try to revisit that?"


    "How about we go out on a date in two days? We''ll act like it''s our first time together and try to get to know each other better."


    Hearing this, she pulled her face away from his chest and looked up, watching him intently. "Is that really what you want? Do you want to get to know me better?"


    "Of course. I said it before. I was being sincere. The question is, will you keep your word?" He asked this, ignoring the looks of admiration the pedestrians gave him.


    Not only did these people have a lot of respect for Minos for his aplishments for the ck in, but some admired him even more, seeing him with that goddess in his arms.


    Minos already had so many beautiful women in his surroundings, but not even that goddess had escaped.


    Impressive!


    A genuine pride for manhood!


    As they were being watched, Gloria said with her face flushed. "For I hope you are prepared for this. I will not go back on my words!"


    "Hehehe, that''s better." He said in satisfaction, just before letting go of that Spiritual Emperor''s beautiful body and walking back through that area.


    "If that is so, I will look for you in two days. But I''m afraid that for the time being, I have too many matters to deal with..." He said this just after arriving in front of his headquarters.


    "It''s okay. I understand your situation..." Gloriamented,prehending that the leader of this ce had to have a lot of responsibilities to fulfill after a months-long trip.


    Finally, the two parted ways, and Minos headed toward his destination, where Ruth was supposed to be!
