"How?"


    That was the question on the minds of all those high-level men and women.


    Minos looked at the person who asked this and said what he had already said to part of his group. "I will deal with the Spiritual Sages once we start acting. Then your concern will be only the Demigods.


    I cannot neutralize them quickly, so you must join forces to make their situation moreplicated. I will do the rest."


    These people wanted to ask how exactly he intended to do that.


    Minos was telling them that he would take care of all the Spiritual Sages in the enemy group and be the leading actor in the battle against the Demigods.


    That was a bit absurd!


    But as people who were in it for the crystals and would only follow what had been agreed upon, none of them said anything for the moment.


    They would follow him and go through the training he had already said before deciding whether to follow this young man with his absurd ns.


    Everyone there had already received half of their payments, so they would not back down just because of Minos'' absurd words.


    "Hmm, okay, I''m looking forward to it." The woman who had asked smiled as she said this before the first mercenary Minos sought out asked him.


    "Should we leave?"


    "Yes." Minos looked at Fermo. "Please lead the way."


    "Yes, Your Majesty!"


    With that, the group of nearly 30 Spiritual Sages set off toward the north, racing through the forest as they moved toward their destination.


    Given the strength of this group and the deep knowledge each of them had about the area they were following, no organism would be left in their path for the next few days of travel.


    Thus, in the blink of an eye, they would arrive where the rest of Fermo''s group outside the Longus family headquarters was waiting for them!


    ...


    On the morning of the eighth day, after the Minos group left thest mercenary outpost they had stopped at, they spotted a small camp near ake in arge forest.


    They were already very close to the headquarters of the Longus family, but it would still be a few days'' journey to get there.


    When Fermo saw that camp where several spiritual beasts were in the vicinity, he smiled and said to the people with him. "My group is long ahead. Please let me approach first so as not to cause a ruckus."


    Minos nodded and slowed his speed, as did each of those in his group, making room for Fermo to show himself to his people first.


    "Guys, I''m back. I''m bringing our reinforcements with me!" Fermo immediately said so as he appeared to face the first group of guards guarding that camp.


    "Fermo!"


    "You finally came! We''ve been waiting for you for months!"


    "Quick, call the leaders!"


    The guards on the outskirts lowered their guards and started talking and smiling, feeling they could finally get some action.


    The strongest in that camp quickly left their tents and appeared where Fermo had just emerged.


    "Fermo, where is the chosen one?" A woman from the Longus family there asked.


    Their allied beasts knew what the chosen one was about since they belonged to some of the tribes that had given rise to the Longus family hybrids.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>


    As such, upon hearing about Minos, all the beasts in the surrounding area immediately looked in the direction of where this fellow was running to them.


    ''Is this the chosen one of Henricus Longus?'' A woman with red eyes and feathers of the same color serving as clothing for her wondered as she looked at the brown-haired fellow.


    When Minos arrived there, he immediately encountered those beings in their humanoid forms, but he identified each of the beasts'' races there.


    They were all very talented, and their members had the potential to reach the 10th stage if they had a little luck.


    ''All in all, the Longus family didn''t choose badly.'' He considered as the people in his group stopped a little behind him, looking at these people and the surroundings.


    "Your Majesty Minos Stuart, meeting you is an immense pleasure!"


    The Longus family hybrids in that camp group immediately bent their knees before him, saying the same thing.


    The beasts there did not bend their knees, but each of them made gestures of greeting to those superior to them, bowing their heads in recognition of that person.


    The mercenaries saw this and wondered if Minos was also paying these people.


    Minos smiled and showed one of his hands, indicating for them to rx. "Hmm, nice to meet you guys too, haha.


    Unfortunately, we have to meet each other in that difficult way... However, I hope I can count on the part of you once we solve our problems.


    My empire''s doors are open to wee you anytime you want."


    Upon hearing that, the hybrids, the only ones there who knew that Minos had a Spatial Kingdom, immediately vibrated in excitement.


    "For I would like to be the first to apply for a position in your forces, Your Majesty." A level 85 woman said this. "If I survive the battle we will go through, I hope Your Majesty won''t mind me apanying you to the Central Continent."


    "Me too."


    "I''m looking forward to meeting the ck in Empire."


    Several of them eximed.


    Meanwhile, one of the mercenaries frowned his eyebrows.


    He knew nothing about the ck in Empire a few days ago. Still, as he ordered his men to begin their investigations into this ce, they had already passed him some relevant data.


    They would still need weeks to find out the essentials about Minos and his domains, but by now, they were fully aware that the ck in Empire should not be such an attractive ce for Spiritual Sages.


    But still, so many of these people were making themselves avable to Minos...


    ''What''s with them? Do they know something we don''t?'' That person wondered, curious about the behavior of these beings.


    Minos ignored the doubts of some of the mercenaries in his group and said. "Hmm, first, let''s beat the damned traitors in that family, and then we''ll talk about it when we put things in their proper ces."


    They all agreed as they stood up, standing on the outskirts.


    Minos looked at them and said. "Anyway, now that we are all here let''s get down to business. Infiltrate the Longus family and take action against the fucking elders!"


    In the days that passed, both Minos'' group and the people in that camp exchanged messages andbined their ideas on how to invade that ce and act from within the family.


    As such, upon touching on the subject, Minos immediately got some individuals in the surrounding area to start expounding on what they had improved on since those conversations.


    "About that..."
