Zum!
The space suddenly vibrated in the Spatial Kingdom, and in a split second, Minos fell to his knees on the dirt floor of that place.
At this point, he was fragile, his face ghastly pale, spitting blood as he coughed heavily. In addition, more than half of his clothes had been burned by that assassin's suicide attack, while some burnt skin marks were exposed around this young man's body.
"Son of a bitch!" He yelled in anger, feeling sorry for what had happened.
He wasn't seriously injured, but still, young Stuart felt pretty bad about what had happened.
He had wanted to seal that man's cultivation and then take him to the Dry City, where this ruler would try to discover some of the answers to many of his questions.
However, Minos did not expect that such a person had what it took to sacrifice himself... After all, not many were strong enough to accept the consequences of such an act.
That's why this young man had exposed himself to the sacrifice of such an opponent!
Consequently, the result had been terrible for Minos, and he was almost seriously injured. In fact, if not for the fact that he had decided to flee to the Spatial Kingdom the moment he saw the black flames created by the final attack, he, the closest to that assassin, would not have been able to escape almost unscathed!
His defense technique was about to lose its effect entirely by the time he had teleported, and those flames had already wounded him. If it had been a matter of a second or two late, that would have been the end of this young man!
'Shit! I lost the opportunity to find out more about the Scourge of the Devil…" He complained as he began to calm down.
Fighting would always generate a storm of emotions, especially in near-death situations like the one Minos had just faced. But this young man had the vast knowledge of an expert that had seen a little bit of almost everything.
Consequently, he had not been slow to put his thoughts in order and begin to analyze the current situation.
"Cough, I wonder if Celeste and Mirya are OK... I hope their injuries aren't too serious." He muttered under his breath, soon after realizing that the sensation in his soul was identical to what he felt earlier.
Because of that, considering that he and those two women had just made a Soul Contract, Minos could have known perfectly well that Celeste and Mirya were still alive!
Of course, there was no way for him to know how bad they were because of these sensations in his soul, generated by the Soul Contract binding between them.
Those two women could be on the verge of death, or even just fine, bouncing around. However, Minos would have no way of knowing that until he returned to that location.
Anyway, while coughing a few more mouths of blood, finally, Emlyn quickly ran towards where Minos had appeared.
As the guardian of the Spatial Kingdom, Emlyn was using her spiritual sense to check on each of the Elite Squad's soldiers. But suddenly, she felt Minos arriving at this place, with practically no energy in his body.
Such a thing was not common to happen. In fact, it had never happened. So, this fox didn't take long to understand the meaning she said and soon had run towards him.
Vuup!
"Hmm?" Eduard, who had been cultivating beside the Spatial Kingdom's lake, suddenly opened his eyes after noticing Emlyn's agitation.
He then looked in the direction of that house next to him. He then saw the figure of Minos kneeling on the ground, looking extremely miserable. "What?" He said in shock as he got up and ran towards that young man.
"Minos, what happened?" Emlyn said something after standing next to this weakened young man and realizing he wasn't at risk.
"Mr. Minos, did something go wrong on your trip? Did one of those women deceive you?" Eduard asked, remembering this information that he and other high-level people in the army knew.
Hearing this, Minos shook his head in denial and then looked up to see Eduard and Emlyn in front of him. Finally, further away, he saw the figure of a young blonde approaching that spot.
Elena had already reached level 50 in the meantime, and soon she would leave the Dry City to head towards Stone Island. However, she was still taking care of her duties in the army, so she was still in this place where she usually trained.
"Minos? Are you OK?" She asked in surprise.
That young man was always so strong that his appearance right now was genuinely messing with this young blonde's mind.
Finally, after coughing a few more times, Minos started to explain what had happened, summarizing everything in a few words. "After signing the Soul Contracts with those two, we were attacked by a Spiritual King as we were returning to the Dry City."
"In the end, he was only at level 54, and he was already seriously injured when he started the sacrifice, which resulted in my current state..."
"A sacrifice?" Elena said in a low voice as she swallowed her saliva and imagined how terrible such a thing must be.
"How horrible! Are those two women dead?" Eduard asked as he put his right hand over his mouth and felt a shiver through his body.
For him, who was already at level 51 and knew how different the energy levels could be in the 6th stage, he perfectly understood the terror of a level 54 cultivator. Consequently, he had thought that perhaps none of those women had survived!
"No, they are still alive, but I don't know what their situation is. Maybe they're fine, as they were both farther away from that man. But that explosion was terrifying…" He replied with a worried tone.
"Anyway, I barely had time to teleport here, so I had to leave them behind." He then took a brief pause and thought about it until he started giving his orders. "Eduard, Elena, I want you two to check on those two and get them to the Dry City as soon as possible."
"I don't know what their situation is, nor what might be around that region we were in when everything happened. So, I'll send you there now. Do you understand everything?"
"Yes!" The two commented simultaneously, still with faces significantly altered given the news they had heard from Minos.
They knew that there would always be a chance that other enemies were around. Hence, the two were already psychologically preparing to act the moment they were sent there.
On the other hand, one of the reasons Minos wanted to send them out of the Spatial Kingdom was because of the vulnerability of those two women right now. After all, even if they are out of danger, they are certainly exhausted!
Consequently, even a group of beasts at the beginning of the 5th stage of cultivation would have the potential to endanger the lives of those two women.
And such a thing was unacceptable!
Minos had just enlisted them in his army. So, he couldn't lose them due to possibilities like this...
Finally, young Stuart got up from where he was and placed his hands on one of Elena's shoulders and the other on Eduard's. "Take care of this quickly, and don't forget to take the spatial ring left behind by that man!"
"Finally, don't bother with me. After I recover, I will travel with Emlyn back to the Dry City."
"OK!" The two said this, and then space floated around them.
Zum!
After Elena and Eduard left, Minos sighed for a moment as he took a portion of spiritual fruits from his spatial ring. 'Ahh, I will probably reach level 49 after I finish recovering from this fight in the next few hours...'
'But I can hardly be happy about it after such a thing happens...'
'I just hope the damage to those two wasn't too great...'
Then, young Stuart walked beside Emlyn, talking about it, until he entered that lake house, where he intended to recover.
...
Meanwhile, outside the Spatial Kingdom.
