After escorting that woman to the crown prince's office, it didn't take long for that guard to come face to face with the future king of the Snow Kingdom.
In that room, there were a few more people besides the prince, and they were all looking at this guard at the moment, curious to find out why their meeting had been interrupted.
"Crown prince, this letter has just arrived at the royal palace, and due to its contents, I promptly brought this information to you." The guard commented respectfully while passing the parchment from before to one of the prince's bodyguards.
"Oh? What's the topic?"
"It's the death of the second prince."
"What?" More than one person exclaimed in doubt upon hearing this statement.
That was one of the points that most bothered the royal family recently. Still, it had not been easy for this organization to advance its investigations in the time that has passed since that incident.
After all, such a thing had ties to the most prominent assassin organizations in this part of the continent, the fearsome and influential group of the Scourges of the Devil!
As a result, just as it was not easy to obtain information from this regional power, it had not been easy to discover almost anything about that incident.
So naturally, the people in that office were surprised to hear that guard's statement.
"Hmm, in fact, there is specific information in this letter..." The bodyguard from before commented in a low voice, surprising people in that place even more.
"This thing..." He waved the parchment at those people and then continued. "Even points out the code name of the second prince's assassin!"
"Are you serious? Who sent us this information? Is it a credible source?" The Crown prince rose from his chair, asking these questions as his hands went towards that parchment in the hands of his bodyguard.
As the prince began to read here, that man said to everyone in the room. "That's the only problem, it's not from a reliable source, and we won't be able to confirm that this is, in fact, true, with just this letter..."
"So, it doesn't help us at all!"
"Ahh, it's difficult..."
Comments resounded through that spot right after that bodyguard said that.
"Not necessarily. Even if there is no way we can confirm the credibility of the person who sent this letter, we still have ways to verify that checks."
"And as I recall, some of this information is correct." The crown prince finally spoke again, with a gleam in his eyes.
"It says that the cause of the incident with Noah was a disagreement during the Spiritual Tournament, involving Maxwell and the death of a nobleman from the Cromwell Kingdom. And although we don't have all that information, we know that, in fact, this young man from the Mayer family was the main cause of what happened to my younger brother."
"Oh? And who are the supposed culprits?" A woman asked.
"Supposedly, the Chambers family of the Cromwell Kingdom attacked my brother while trying to kill Maxwell Mayer…" The prince then exposed the entire contents of the letter to his advisers and subordinates in that room.
In the letter sent by Minos, there were various details of what had happened. For example, Leroy's death, the note found in one of that Chambers family base, the code name of the murderer hired for this operation, etc.
Only Minos' name and his involvement in all of this had been left out.
After hearing all this, one of the people in that room, an old man with a white beard, exposed his thoughts. "Crown prince, I advise caution in this matter."
"It is a common practice for competing powers to use this kind of attitude to harm their opponents, blaming certain incidents involving high-level sovereigns on those rivals."
"And it is also widespread for such acts to mix part of the truth with lies." He commented in a solemn tone. "This is a way to make false information more credible..."
After that, the meeting of this group of people continued, with each expounding their views until they came at how they should act about that information.
But even though there were many doubts regarding the veracity of the facts denounced by Minos' letter, now they couldn't fail to investigate the Chambers family further.
After all, as they had had almost no results in their investigation, the people responsible for this had plenty of time to verify these facts!
Now, after so many months, they at least had a target to investigate and maybe eventually get their revenge.
A royal family was not an organization that could be challenged casually. Therefore, those who would do such a thing had only two options. Hide well or run away while there was still a chance!
...
Meanwhile, in the Dry City...
Three people were currently leaving the area protected by the local dome via the northern exit of the wall.
In that place, two mature women with high-level beauties were riding a tremendous earth-type spiritual beast. At the same time, a young man with brown hair remained behind one of the two.
One of them had utterly green hair, and her cultivation of Spiritual King couldn't help but impress the people who saw her.
On the other hand, the other woman, who had brown hair, would not draw anyone's attention because of her spiritual cultivation due to the necklace around her neck...
"Ahh, finally, I can go back to cultivating!" The brown-haired woman commented in satisfaction, feeling even more anxious this time.
It wasn't easy for her to keep her cultivation sealed for so long, and naturally, she was very excited about this moment.
"Minos, you are a boring person! You've left me like this all this time…" She complained, pouting her pretty pink lips.
Of course, these were Minos, Mirya, and Celeste, the group traveling towards the abandoned Yellow City. In such a town, they intended to meet with the spiritual judge that the young ruler of the Black Plain had previously hired.
Minos didn't want to expose the Dry City casually. So, as the spiritual judge he hired was coming from the Kingdom of the Waves, he had taken the opportunity to make such a meeting in that town.
Anyway, it had been nearly four months since Celeste's arrival in the Dry City, and Minos was ready to augment his power with additional Spiritual Kings!
Their meeting with that spiritual judge was scheduled to take place in the next three days, and that's why they were leaving the Dry City at this time.
Hearing Celeste's comment, Mirya smiled at the misfortune of this woman, whom she had gotten very close to. "Hehehe, Celeste, you're complaining for no reason. After all, what could you have done even if you hadn't had your cultivation sealed? How many years have you been at level 54?"
'Over ten years…' Celeste thought to himself, hearing her friend's provocative question.
She and Mirya had become very close to each other since the two of them met months ago. Both shared several similarities, such as close cultivation levels and the fact that they had already slept with a few dozen men...
In fact, the big difference between the two was that Mirya was more 'open' about who she was. In contrast, Celeste did what she wanted but publicly tried to behave in a more 'traditional' way...
"Just a few months probably wouldn't have made me a breakthrough…" Celeste commented, just before letting out a long breath.
Minos, who was still sitting behind Mirya, hearing the conversation between these two, laughed and said. "Haha, don't hold a grudge, Celeste. I did just what was necessary. But you should be happy!"
"In a few days, you will be able to join my army!"
"When that happens, you will undergo a radical change of turning heaven and earth!" Minos commented vaguely, looking at Celeste's hair that waved in the air as he held onto Mirya's waist.
After that, they quickly disappeared from there...
