When that female voice caught the attention of everyone present in that ce, Minos deactivated his Chaotic Gravity and let those less favorable to him breathe.


    Meanwhile, Gloria and Ruth, who were still doing nothing but apanying Minos, saw the woman they had first made agreements with at the local Spiritual Church outpost.


    That was Louise, level 71, who was there besides other people from the local Church post.


    Among this group, everyone wore red robes simr to Gloria''s, indicating that they were either Matriarchs or Patriarchs of the Spiritual Church.


    "Louise?" Gloria said this out loud when she saw that woman approaching them.


    At the same time, Louise had the leader of the local Church post and the other faction allies of this wife of Minos at her side.


    Minos had formed a faction for his wife within the Spiritual Church shortly after bing a Spiritual Emperor. After that and their trip out of the northern region for the first time, they made several contacts in Church posts along their journey.


    These contacts had be the first members of Gloria''s faction, which had significantly developed over the past years.


    With the formation of the ck in Empire, the subsequent strengthening of Gloria, who had reached level 70 after Sarah''s birth, and the strengthening of the Stuart family, this faction had grown considerably.


    They now had over 600 members, among those from the northern region, ming Empire, Vogel, Rosser, and Albano. Among them, more than 50 low-level Spiritual Saints, formerly high-level Spiritual Emperors, were in this faction.


    As for the stronger Spiritual Saints, only 5 of these had joined Gloria''s group so far, one of them being precisely that woman next to Louise.


    Precisely because of this history with Minos and Gloria, these people from the local Church outpost had been one of the first to find out from Elen of their arrival and their location.


    Louise smiled and greeted those people in the main position of that area. "Your Majesty, you look very well. I imagine you will soon be a Spiritual Saint..."


    Minos smiled at that woman but was not humble. "Hmm, sooner than you imagine, I''m sure of it."


    The woman next to Louise, level 77, stared at Minos and said. "Your Majesty, I heard that you managed to kill Abe Vogel... So, ept my congrattions for finally defeating that gue."


    When she said this, the surrounding area finally learned this information and realized why Minos acted decisively against them.


    ''So that''s why!'' The former president of this house thought to himself as he considered that he had to find a way tomunicate with his family about this.


    Minos was not only humiliating all the local noble families by taking this ce and giving arrest orders to representatives. He was also essing essential documents of this organization with the various individuals acting around this ce on his behalf.


    He and the other leaders of the representatives had not expected something like this to happen just during the rule of Minos. So they acted as if they were preparing for the future and left some traces and records of problems that could now favor the emperor''s actions somehow.


    So it was in the interest of this individual from the Guzman family to bring his family members to this ce to prevent Minos from vascrizing the Assembly until he found something problematic!


    As this fellow tried to return to his office, the limit he could go in this ce, Minos thanked those people for their congrattions. He also appreciates them because of the envoys they had sent to Dry City several times in the previous months.


    He took the opportunity to strengthen the ties between his family and these people. He invited them to visit Dry City, arrange joint training of their forces, and even do some business.


    But Minos had to deal with more of the people who were still there before more members of local forces arrived. So he left Gloria to deal with these people from the Spiritual Church after a few minutes of conversations.<novelnext></novelnext>


    "How was thest shipment you received?" Gloria asked that level 71 woman about the supplies the ck in sent to their group every month.


    "We got the right amount, Matriarch Frost. But the number of people in the faction has been increasing and..."


    While Gloria took those people from the local Church post to talk business elsewhere in the Assembly, Ruth stood next to Minos and the level 78 Spiritual Saint.


    "What will we do when the news of this reaches Rosser, Albano, and ckrock?" She asked Minos while that fellow had just dismissed another of the representatives there.


    Minos waved for the next one toe up and answered his wife. "They won''t like it, but like it or not, Vogel already belongs to me. So my attitude of trying to keep that territory in my state and dominate it is only the natural thing to do."


    "That is not enough for them to think that this move means I will try something against them."


    "True." She agreed with him. "But they will create problems. So how will we deal with that?"


    He said. "We will propose more business and decrease our actions after our return to Dry City. That will diminish any kind of thought that I will start a journey of conquest now."


    "But you won''t?"


    "Not now. Maybe in about three or five years." Minos winked at her before turning his attention back to the woman making a gesture of greeting to him.


    "Your Majesty..."


    Meanwhile, the level 78 Spiritual Saint looked at Minos and Ruth with interest. He noted that the Gray Clouds Sect master did not intend to stand still with all his potential.


    ''It seems that we will soon face more problems...'' He judged that he should cultivate as much as possible to reach the 9th stage before the next challenge reached Minos.


    But he did not think Minos'' ns were bad or problematic. The opposite of that, he felt that it was just the expected thing that someone with the Spatial Kingdom would think about improving their strength as much as possible.


    At the same time, it was much more exciting and opportunistic for him that Minos would fight even more battles in the future. These would be opportunities for him to enjoy himself and achieve new things.


    Therefore, while he listened to several of Ruth and Minos'' conversations with each other and the local representatives, he did not try to change their minds even once.


    That went on for more than two hours until more representatives came to the Assembly, this time people who already had alliance agreements with the Stuart family, invited by Elen.


    Even some elders of the families represented by these people appeared in that ce, apanying their juniors, interested in this unprecedented event that Minos was leading.


    But in the midst of this, the first powerful opponents of Minos and his family finally came into contact with the informationing from the battlefield between Vogel and Cromwell!


    When they found out about Minos'' intentions toe to this capital, these people immediately began to move, sending men to the Assembly and the ck in posts!


    "Arrest everyone and prevent Minos Stuart from entering the Assembly!" One of the local patriarchs said this before leaving for that ce.
