As Minos and Joey chatted about Alina's performance, a great commotion spread across the northern part of the Central Continent!
Such a thing reached those few powerful who ruled this region and ordinary people who could not stop talking about hot topics like this.
That was shocking news that had started circulating less than two days ago in one of the regional periodicals.
This newspaper had published an article on its cover, talking about the fate of one of the regional geniuses, one of the finalists of the last edition of the Spiritual Tournament.
After more than three years since the final fight of that last edition of this competition, one of the most critical newspapers of that region brought this subject back to the fore.
They pointed out in their previous edition that Minos, the mysterious Spiritual Tournament finalist, had not gone to the Flaming Empire!
Such thing had disturbed the minds of millions of people, and in many cities of this region, people went out to discuss it in bars, restaurants, etc. That was already a subject that anyone who knew about it would take any opportunity to talk about among friends and even strangers...
Initially, Minos' origins were a source of debate for many regional leaders, who desired to recruit promising youth to their organizations, such as this Spiritual Tournament finalist.
However, as common sense, no one considered the possibility that this young man had not left for one of the empire's sects.
Everyone thought that he would do the obvious and that it would not be worth finding out more about him, despite his mystery!
And all the discussion that had taken place concerning this subject over three years ago focused on the admiration that many had for him. Also, the disappointment of others, who wished they had had the opportunity to recruit such talent before he left for the empire.
There were many advantages to having relations with such a prodigy, which is why the nobles in power in the many high-level regional families had regretted such a thing...
Anyway, people had talked a lot about Minos back then, but nobody was that worried about it. After all, the chance that some might have had passed and the subject had become history for the people of this region.
Minos would likely become someone relevant in the Flaming Empire and never return to this region, or he would end up dying in his cultivation path.
That's what most people thought would happen to him.
In this case, that young man had already gone a long way from this region, and people would not speak or think of him as someone who could unbalance the regional situation.
But while the population seemed to have abandoned this issue, this news that Minos had not left had stirred the minds and hearts of millions of people!
...
A few hundred kilometers from the capital of the Kingdom of the Waves, there was a large land surrounded by many tall trees, which could hide everything that happened in such property to the rest of this big city.
In this place, there were many buildings of different styles and a large lawn with the symbol of a deer in one of the main points of such property.
Many people walked around this large territory in groups that could be easily identified. Many guards were patrolling this place while wearing their traditional uniforms. At the same time, a few ordinary people and a group of nobles dressed luxuriously came and went there.
And while thousands of people went about their daily business on this property, a young woman was running down a hallway in one of the buildings there, holding a newspaper in her left hand.
She was wearing an outfit typically worn in tropical regions, common among those who would often go to beaches or swimming pools.
And no wonder, this young woman had bronzed skin, very beautiful to look at, which perfectly matched her hair and brown eyes.
But as this woman ran, working her perfect body and smiling in a way that would leave any man stunned, she arrived at her destination, the residence of a particular person.
There, this young woman promptly went to the outer courtyard, where at this moment, a shirtless man was training one of his spiritual techniques.
Pow!
Pow!
As his blows hit a spiritual array specially made for him, that woman got close enough to him and said out loud. "Christian, have you read the latest edition of the Northern News?"
Hearing this, the young master of the Reid family turned to his late brother's widow, Misty, and commented under his breath. "No. I was busy recently... But anyway, is there something important in this edition?"
The woman then smiled at him and waved that newspaper that was in one of her hands. "Read this, and you will understand."
After that, Christian dried his sweaty hands on a nearby towel and then began to read that news relating to the subject of young Stuart.
And while he was doing this, a radiant smile was slowly forming on this man's face.
He had been investigating his younger brother's death for many months before due to Misty's request. However, all that effort had been in vain since the culprit for the end of this woman's late husband had been someone untouchable to them!
And since none of them nor other members of the Reid family were stupid, they had forgotten about the subject of revenge for the death of one of the young masters.
As for Misty, she still hadn't given in to Christian's advances, even after so long since the death of her late husband and the many attempts by her brother-in-law.
Christian was sure that sooner or later, she would accept him. After all, she was just a young woman and still had many years of life ahead of her.
How terrible would it not be to live alone for so long?
Also, even though it was hot most of the time in this city, there were cold days, and having company during the cold nights would be appreciated by anyone...
As such, he hadn't given up on his interest in her!
But reading the information in that newspaper, this young man couldn't help but celebrate internally.
He was patient to convince this woman, but that news would make things much easier for him. After all, no matter how good Minos was, at the end of the day, such a person was still just a human, an individual who the regional conditions would limit.
And with the power of the Reid family, this young master was sure he could reap Minos' life!
No matter how many people he needed for that, as long as Minos was just a Spiritual General or even a Spiritual King, he could still be eliminated.
"Perfect!" He commented in a low voice as he clenched his fists and then looked at Misty's beautiful body with a glance typical of predators...
"We will notify the family so the investigations can proceed!" He said this while releasing part of his level 48 cultivation pressure.
Misty, level 43, felt a little overwhelmed upon feeling this, but she was genuinely happy. She could see Christian's determination to bring revenge for her late husband, something that would satisfy her greatly!
'You saved me once, Tristram... And though I may not have had the chance to do the same for you, I will still bring you justice!'
...
While those two youths were plotting against young Stuart, such news had already reached the ears of the prominent members of the Chambers family in the city of Persephone.
In particular, the newspaper containing such information had just come into the hands of the supreme elder of that family, Wallace Chambers, Leroy's father.
'... Such information was obtained through a recent interview with one of the last edition competitors, a person who had been ranked in that competition. Naturally, he wishes to remain anonymous, but the Northern News guarantees that such information is, in fact, accurate on behalf of the millennia of credibility of our organization.'
Wallace read this until he finally reached the end of the text on the front page of this latest edition of the Northern News.
He then lowered his head and looked towards the ground while his expression grew uglier. "Virgil! Come fast!" He said it aloud, to the point where such a thing could be heard all over the Chambers family headquarters.
"What's the matter, master?"
"I want to know exactly where he is!"
