"From the results of the Cohen family's investigations, it appears that the Collins are engaging in an alliance with the Allen family to suppress House Nash!"
Upon hearing this, Minos immediately understood the plans of that organization that had attacked him weeks ago.
'They probably already know about our relationship with the Nash family, just as they must have assumed that we would alert Elen's family about that ship...'
Minos and the Black Plain Army command knew that those groups that had attacked the base currently commanded by Celeste had also sunk a Nash family ship.
That was because, after that great battle in that part of the Black Plain, Celeste had captured one of the enemy Spiritual Kings, someone who knew about such a thing. And after that woman had been sent to Dry City, it didn't take long for Abby to use her abilities on such a person, making her tell everything she knew.
With this, the army had already notified the Nash family about the fact that one of the ships of this organization had been attacked by forces from the Collins family.
Precisely because of all this, Minos had readily understood the Collins family's action. 'Since the milk has already been spilled, they decided to go all out against the Nash family before this organization had a chance to act against them...'
"They're pretty decisive." He commented in a low voice, thinking about how quickly that organization acted.
As they had already offended House Nash and this family would not have time to act in the short term, House Collins had decided to join House Allen.
Before their enemies even tried to retaliate, House Collins already wanted to eliminate them all!
Hearing that comment from Minos, Abby nodded in agreement. "Yes. They probably want to take advantage of the problems on Stone Island to eliminate an enemy they accidentally made."
"And what do they intend to do to support the Allens? Did the Cohen family manage to find that out?"
"Well, we won't know everything until things happen, but it is expected that some experts will be sent to Stone Island to participate in the war." Abby said uncertainly, just quoting the conjectures made by the Cohen family investigators.
"Tsk!"
'How troublesome... At this rate, I'll have to do something about it, or Elen's family may no longer be able to market my products on Stone Island.' He thought about this while he had an unfriendly expression on his face, trying to figure out what to do.
Stone Island was too important for Minos to accept random actions from an outside power. After all, the vast majority of the crystals invested in Dry City came from that place.
And as much as he could make new deals with other families in that state, it would take months to get off paper and become real. But, on the other hand, he would have to open his doors to new organizations, which he didn't know and could bring new problems for him.
Finally, even if he was willing to accept these setbacks, the Black Plain and the Brown Kingdom situation worsened daily. Consequently, something big could happen at any moment, and for the next few months, he probably couldn't leave Dry City.
Things luckily hadn't gotten out of hand in the days when he was traveling to handle that mission against the Silva family. But at the moment, things were already at a level where any slight disagreement could result in the complete breakdown of negotiations.
Therefore, Minos could no longer risk leaving his city at this time!
And without being able to leave this city to sign new agreements, it would be even more challenging to make new allies in that state.
So, it didn't seem reasonable to lose the Nash family, an allied organization that they already knew and with whom business had been working well, despite the problems on that island.
Keeping that relationship seemed better than creating a new one!
As for trying to market his products in other states, well, that would be even more problematic.
With that said, he wanted to act somehow to avoid influences from outside Stone Island in the war of the Nash and Allen families.
Previously he didn't have much information about what was happening in each kingdom in the region. As such, he didn't know about the Allen family's actions.
After all, to find out about these regional family alliances and agreements, someone would first have to spy on these powers. But the Black Plain didn't have enough personnel to do that, nor did it have enough allies to do that kind of service until recently.
In fact, a little more than six months ago, the Black Plain practically only had alliances and agreements with the Stone Island families!
But now things had changed!
Young Stuart had contacts in three more states in the region. They were the Brown Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Waves, and the Cromwell Kingdom, where his allies could keep an eye on the actions of his potential enemies.
Hence, unlike what had happened regarding the Farmland families and House Allen, Minos now had enough information to act if something similar happened. And with the information regarding the Collins family, this young man was already thinking about possible solutions.
'I can't go to Stone Island, but maybe I should send troops to solve this...'
'No, sending troops would be too problematic, and I would have to lose some of the army's forces at the moment.' He pondered as he looked at his girlfriend's beautiful face. 'I can't ask the Miller family to send forces to Stone Island since their power will be needed in the Brown Kingdom.'
'It only remains for me to try something with the Stokes family!'
After thinking about it for a while, he finally concluded what should be done and communicated it to his girlfriend so that she could make the arrangements. "Abby, let's ask the Stokes family to send three Spiritual Kings at level 54 or higher to the army naval base."
"I want them to do a joint mission with us, which will be led by Celeste."
"Oh? Are you going to send that woman to Stone Island? And who will stay at the naval base?" Abby asked promptly.
"Angela. This woman has only one Silver-grade technique left to learn. So, when she does that, I will send her to that base during the period when Celeste is on Stone Island."
"But won't that be problematic for our plans against the Brown family? I mean, losing someone of Celeste's level right now will be very serious for us!" Abby said, trying to understand why Minos wanted to invest so much in this plan.
Upon hearing this, Minos shook his head in denial and explained. "No, at least it won't affect it significantly. That's because this will be a short mission, something that will only cause Celeste to be gone for a few days."
"In fact, we won't send her until everything is ready. So, this will at most affect us for a few days. Probably less than a month."
"Anyway, we'll notify the Nash family about it so they and their allies in that state can make their preparations..."
"Preparations for what?"
Minos then smiled before answering such a question. "I will send Celeste and that group to kill the patriarch and the supreme elder of the Allen family!"
"So, that's what you want..." Abby finally understood why Minos wanted to invest in this action.
With the death of these influential figures, it will be impossible for the Allen family to remain such a problem for Minos' allied forces in that state.
That is, that action would not eliminate the Allen family, and the members of that organization would continue to fight against the forces of House Nash. But if they lost the pillars of their organization, Minos and Elen's family would at least have more breathing room.
So, he could put the affairs of Stone Island aside for a moment and focus all his attention on what mattered most, the Brown family!
"So, Celeste will go just to do this mission and then return to her previous role."
"Indeed, that has the potential to slow down the effects of the Collins family's addition to the war on that island."
"All right, I'll make the notifications and start planning this kill mission!"
"Hmm, thanks, Abby."
After that, the two said their goodbyes, with that young woman going to headquarters to settle that matter and Minos leaving for his residence.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
