As they were leaving from there, Oswald looked at Minos and praised him. "You did very well to show your dominance. Lance was annoying you too much without you evenpeting with him..."


    "Hmm."


    "Anyway, what were you two doing? I didn''t think you two wereing here together."


    Hearing this, Maisie remembered the situation and felt the disappointment of catching her best friend in the act with her son. "Ivy called me to her house because of the previous problem, and that''s how we met and came here." She told her father.


    Minos remained silent, following them to the residence where his wives were waiting for him.


    "Is that so?" Oswald noticed the blush on his daughter''s face and that Minos had the aura of a new woman on his body. ''Hmm, it looks like Ivy doesn''t forgive anyone...'' He internallyughed but did not demonstrate his thoughts to Maisie.


    He had also experienced dating his mother''s best friends in the past. So it was not hard for this elderly figure to understand Minos and Maisie''s situation and not to demonstrate his thoughts to his daughter.


    But he could not help but feel more pleased with Minos, as they had many things inmon.


    While Oswald added another point for Minos in his judgment, this young man was thinking about his affairs in this sect.


    ''It''s almost time for my group to return...'' He considered the deals he had already made and what was left for theirmitments in the Empire to end. ''I just need confirmation of thesest deals I have already negotiated, and it will be time to leave!''


    ''I will finally be able to return to the ck in!'' He smiled, imagining how much that ce had improved in the meantime and what he would have to do on his return.


    ''I''ll still have more than six months to travel, but in less than a week, I''ll probably be free of responsibilities until my group arrives in Albano.'' Minos looked at the months he would have in front of him. ''After that, I''ll see some business in that state while I search for the God of Death''s inheritance.''


    His main reason for stopping by Albano was to help Abby finish fulfilling the Goddess of Life''s mission. But as he would pass through such a state anyway, Minos already had in mind to try to do business regarding array masters techniques in Albano.


    He could try to settle such a matter with Vogel through Elen, who was still in that state. But his position in that state was still too fragile. Even with his almost unstoppable ascension to power, it had yet to happen, and his powers would be limited even when that happened.


    So he thought it might be simpler to negotiate directly with the West family, which already had an agreement with the ck in.


    However, if that did not work, he would try hisst card with that state when the Spiritual Church finally crowned him.


    Anyway, with these matters in mind, Minos quickly arrived at his grandfather''s house apanied by those two people.


    Upon arriving at that residence, they gathered to eat and talk about the day''s problems, with Oswald and Maisie not talking about some of Minos'' doings so as not to irritate Abby, Ruth, and Gloria.


    They knew he had slept with more than one woman in thest hours. Still, they all preferred not to talk about it, especially when they were surrounded by people other than themselves.


    At the end of the day, Minos had his fun, but he always returned to them, rarely showing interest in others in front of them and loving them in unique ways.


    The others woulde and go in his life, but they were side by side with this man, with a kind of attention that no others had. So they epted such behaviors from him, even if they always acted to limit him.


    ...


    In the blink of an eye, days passed...


    After the incident earlier with Lance, most of Minos'' deals with this sect were approved, and only the deals with array masters were refused.


    With this, Minos spoke with Talia and arranged that when all the techniques he ordered in this sect and throughout the Empire were ready, she would pick them up and take them to the ck in.


    Since this was an excellent justification for her to go to that region, Ruth''s older sister epted this request from Minos without any problems.


    On the other hand, in thest few days, Isabe had appeared in the Gray Clouds Sect and spent some special moments with Minos, which only they and his wives had any idea what it was really about.


    The rest of the people in the sect only considered this visit a good sign for the possible future sect master. After all, such a person needed to have a good rtionship with the future sovereign of this state.


    But to the unhappiness of some people in the sect who wanted to meet the princess, among them Lance, Isabe did not seem to be interested in anyone other than Minos.


    With that, the princess'' brief passage through this area naturally impressed and annoyed different people, including Minos himself...


    But such was life. He had put his hands where they should not be, and now he could only bear the responsibility for such actions!


    In the end, Isabe returned to the capital, promising to see him in the northern region. At the same time, he had some peace of mind to be with the other women he had in this sect on hisst day there.


    Maisie had not liked Ivy and Minos'' rtionship. Still, in the end, these two continued anyway and she sort of epted that there was nothing she could do about it.


    What could she do if her friend and son were two perverts?


    She at least convinced herself that soon Minos would return to the northern region, and her rtionship with Ivy would not change much. On the contrary, perhaps it would even help her in the future concerning her son, who had already be a little less rough with her during this period.


    As for Ivory, her and Minos'' agreement was already in ce, and they had had their experiences when they had time in thest few days.


    The incident with Lance had changed nothing for them, and everything had gone peacefully after that night.


    The only notable thing had been Lance''s attitude upon waking up, not having changed at all concerning Ivory and having his resentment for Minos increased considerably.


    But since he had woken up only a day before the time of departure of Minos and his wives from this sect, he did not even have time to cause any trouble.


    So, after the group of four had said goodbye to Kara, who had not yet advanced to the 7th stage nor had time to have fun with Minos, the fou left this area of the Gray Clouds Sect!


    There was still plenty for them in this state, but their strength still needed to be improved, so they would not get too involved in local affairs. However, Minos already had his eyes set on the Saints Killing Sect and the matters concerning the Spiritual Church.


    Other than that, he had a year to make up his mind about the future of that sect. After saying goodbye to his family in this ce, he left on Maida''s back along with his wives.


    "Time to have some fun..." He remarked to them as they took off from that city.
