When the consciousness of the previous curse disappeared from the Spatial Kingdom, Minos finally breathed a sigh of relief, while Abby also felt better.
At the same time, Gloria and Ruth rushed to their side, curious about what had just happened.
"What was that? How did someone manage to get into the Spatial Kingdom?" Ruth questioned.
"That was a curse. It followed the path of the Spatial Kingdom when we teleported here." Minos said as he used Henricus Longus' knowledge of such a place.
Teleportation was a quick way to go from one place to another. But when it was used, such a mode of travel created small spatial cracks that took some time to be fully corrected by the space-time tissue.
Because of this, a Natural Law, spiritual energy, or variations thereof could enter Spatial Kingdoms through these small gaps in space.
Another way would be through the Spatial Kingdom's place of origin, where it 'was' located.
Case in point, the location of Minos' Spatial Kingdom was not in the vicinity of that area, so the only way for that curse to pursue him and Abby would be through the crack in question.
"Curse?" Gloria was surprised, not expecting something like that to take human form and look so much like a living being.
"Hmm, it's a bit complicated. Actually, the God of Death's heritage was built on the Ancient Folk's sacrificial site." He gave that brief summary to his wives. "That's that curse created by that tribe's nemesis."
"What?" Gloria exclaimed since she had read a little about the Ancient Folk.
She did not know as many details as Minos. Still, she knew an enemy had destroyed the tribe of the 'founders' of cultivation as they knew it.
So she was interested in the subject since this was a historical fact, something that naturally made anyone interested.
Ruth had also heard of the Ancient Folk, so she was open-mouthed to hear that something so primordial still existed in this world.
"Then why did it run away?" She asked as Minos and Abby looked in the direction of the skeleton that such a curse had looked at moments earlier.
Neither of them had felt anything that such a curse consciousness had felt. So they could only think that something related to the majestic beast skeleton had frightened the enemy.
Minos said as he pointed in the direction of those bones. "I think it was probably that..."
The two looked over to where Kyla and Maida were lying among the creature's bones, where they were pretty comfortable sleeping.
But even focusing their attention on that, neither of them felt anything the same way Minos and Abby did. Instead, they only saw a giant skeleton full of energy and laws escaping from it.
"What do we do now?" Abby questioned her husband. "When we leave here, it will come after us."
Minos closed his eyes and tried to imagine how to solve the present problem. "Staying training here for a while will not help us at all. So I'll try to find a way to resolve the situation."
"What?"
"This is too dangerous!"
"No. I won't allow you to do that!"
The three protested against Minos' crazy idea.
"We have no alternative. So anyway, it's better to try than to stay here and do nothing." He said seriously. "And I can run back here any minute for all intents and purposes."
"But this time, it will be waiting for this!" Abby said, not liking that at all.
"Anyway, it's decided." Minos was firm in his conviction. "But don't exaggerate so much. The God of Death knew what this place was, and he certainly had a hard time putting his heritage there."
"Wouldn't it be stupid for him to leave nothing to help his potential heirs?" He looked at her in a way that showed his idea's logic. "Perhaps that is the test of the God of Death's inheritance. Someone using something left by that expert to withstand the curse in the area."
As much as they were afraid, the three realized that their husband's words made sense. After all, if every candidate for that inheritance was just to die to the curse in that area, the God of Death was in danger of never obtaining an heir.
But obtaining an heir was precisely the purpose of every inheritance!
So it was expected that some trickery that could help him was hidden in that area!
Abby then clenched her fists and said. "Be careful then."
"Hmm, when I find a way to overcome that curse, I'll pick you up so we can do what we came here to do." He said as he hugged her and kissed her on the forehead.
Soon after, he hugged his other wives and teleported back to the red area from earlier.
Zum!
...
Appearing back in the area from earlier, Minos immediately looked around and saw the man dressed in white waiting for him beside the grave he was digging earlier.
"You came back faster than I thought." It said in a calm tone, but still feeling strange from the earlier feeling. "What was that?"
Minos' eyes narrowed, and he answered with a question. "Don't you know? In your time, no one had ever found one of those?"
That curse understood what that meant. "So that skeleton already existed in my time? How can that be? So many millions of years have passed..."
But then it became more serious and said. "I don't know why that thing was willing to help you, but now that you are here, the situation is different!"
"Will you help me dig the grave, or will you choose the hard way?" It asked as an extra shovel lay to its right side, this time with the markings for a single grave there.
Minos understood the meaning of that and said. "Is that supposed to be for me? I'm sorry, but I don't intend to die here."
"Oh? You think you have a choice?" That creature smiled with its strange face. "I know you can escape to your pocket space. But what are you going to do? Spend your whole life in that place? I don't think so."
"Then sooner or later, you will have to face me, and you know that the outcome will not change no matter how long you train!"
"Then why not accept your fate?"
"What if I use this?" Minos showed that being a teleportation array, which could take him to a random place 100 kilometers away from where he was.
The curse was actually very intelligent, and it realized what that was. "That won't work here. I control the space in this location, so escape items don't work, except for your pocket space, created by that person."
In some respects, this curse could be even stronger than someone at level 99. That is, it could not kill someone of that level, but someone of that level could not destroy it either.
But Henricus Longus' creation was made by a God. It had also developed for millions of years.
So the Spatial Kingdom of Minos was not simple and was one level above this curse, making it possible for this young man to escape from this place.
Minos realized there was no talking to this being and decided to try something to attract any kind of help from the God of Death.
