Three weekster...
After departing from the capital of Albano, the group of four humans and two beasts arrived in the vicinity of the area where Minos was sensing the sign of the God of Death''s inheritance.
Minos did not know exactly where this ce was to the extent of identifying on the map where they should go. He only felt the direction where such a ce was. So their journey had not been quick, with them having to stop several times for him to understand better where they should go.
But after three weeks of searching for the inheritance site, Minos and his wives arrived, ording to their instincts, where this should be.
In the middle of a highly silent forest was the most secluded area of Albano. In this ce, incidents and tragedies had happened so often in the past that the area had be forbidden. It was famous for the terrible future and bad luck of those who passed through there.
But upon arriving there without much fear, the four humans immediately understood that the reason for the stories about this ce was the God of Death.
There was a dark mist in some parts of the forest, where only those who passed through it could know what was on the other side.
At the same time, the intense killing intenting from that fog-covered area was something they had all felt when Minos received the key to this ce.
Finally, in addition to the iplete trident sign on Minos'' forehead started trembling now, Abby felt extremely grumpy, recalling the feelings of the Goddess of Life.
"That''s the ce." Shemented in a low voice, confident that that was the feeling emitted by the Goddess of Life''s rival.
Minos was already sure of it too, but since he did not feel anything towards that person, he was just curious to know what he would gain there.
He would do this to help Abbyplete the Goddess of Life''s inheritance. But nothing would stop him from taking advantage of the situation. Thus, Minos was prepared to get some things for the ck in if possible.
"What do we do now?" Ruth asked in curiosity.
As the three women looked at him, Minos replied. "I will send the two of you with K and Maida to the Spatial Kingdom. Abby and I will continue."
"What? How can you decide that?" Gloria asked, not liking that she was being excluded from the adventure.
"Do you intend to fight pregnant, big sister?" K asked as she stood next to them, not liking the atmosphere of that area.
She would rather return to the Spatial Kingdom as soon as possible!
Not only was that ce better than the maind, but recently it was giving off an energy that made her feel veryfortable...
Gloria listened to that fox and clenched her fists as she looked at her belly.
Minos thenmented. "This ce has its dangers, and only I can help Abbyplete her mission since you two did not participate in the inheritance of the Goddess of Life."
"On the other hand, we don''t know what will happen. So we shouldn''t risk more than is necessary."
"What about Abby? Isn''t that better for us to leave this for the future? I think it will be too risky on your level to do this." Ruth said in concern.
She had no idea how dangerous the God of Death''s inheritance would be since Minos and Abby had easily managed to ovee the Goddess of Life''s inheritance. But upon arriving at this ce and noticing the area covered in ck fog, she could not help but think that the ce was much more dangerous than they thought.
Abby then said. "I''ll be fine. I have the weapon left by the Goddess of Life with some of her aurae. That will protect me enough for us to escape in case of need."
"Still, how will we escape if everyone is in the Spatial Kingdom?" The ck-haired woman insisted.<novelnext> </novelnext>
Minos reassured his wife. "If we need to escape, I willunch the ck hole at that ce. That will clear the area and ensure a safe ce to return to."
"Why don''t we do this right away?" Gloria asked.
The ck hole could erase even souls. Because of this, it would not be impossible, in this pregnant''s opinion, that they could destroy this ce just by throwing the ck hole there.
Minosughed and said. "If I do that, we will lose anything useful that might be in this ce..."
The Goddess of Life had said that the traces of the God of Death should be erased from existence. But not every item in an inheritance necessarily belonged to its former owner.
Like Minos, cultivators had their history, dead enemies, and many items collected along the river of time. So, naturally, there would be items not owned or ''blessed'' by the God of Death in that ce.
And those items would not need to be destroyed, which was of great interest to Minos!
"So it''s on ount of your greed..." Ruthmented, looking at her husband with a warning look.
"Come on, don''t worry. Worst-case scenario, we''ll have to stay in the Spatial Kingdom for a while." He smiled apologetically, slowly convincing his wives.
After looking at each other and talking for a few more moments in that scary woods, Minos sent Maida, K, Ruth, and Gloria to the Spatial Kingdom.
After being alone with his queen, he took one of Abby''s hands while this woman held a silver staff in her other hand, a weapon that had a blue gem on top of it.
Abby took a deep breath and gathered her courage, quickly making her way with her husband into the area covered by the ck mist.
As they did so, they immediately noticed the sudden coldness of that area, which seemed to contain beings of different races in pain, screaming in agony.
As their backs shivered, the staff in one of Abby''s hands glowed through its bluish gem, quickly covering this woman''s body.
But this did not extend to Minos, and amidst the negative feeling in his being, he released his killing intent as much as he could.
In doing so, Minos did not affect his wife, as she was protected by that staff, already feeling much less fearful. Meanwhile, the strange feeling in his being diminished as if that hostile environment was epting him as part of itself.
The sounds of screaming diminished as they continued, along with the formation of a path in front of them, something like a stairway at the edge of a cliff.
''This ce is strange... Where''s here?'' Minos felt curious, trying to understand the surroundings covered by this strange mist.
The continent had changed a bit since the time of Henricus Longus. Because of this, in some ces, Minos only had an idea of what they were in that man''s time, so he could not determine some interesting ces precisely.
He could more or less tell the approximate location of those giant skeletons as they had unique demarcations. But other ces wereplicated to determine.
But since there had been some extreme ces in the area he was of the Central Continent in the past, Minos could not help but wonder where exactly they would arrive.
So, as they walked slowly, the two began to hear footstepsing towards them!
