“Tsk!”

“You truly like playing with me, huh?” Gloria embarrassingly looked at him. “But are you that committed to this? Now you will have two beautiful women, time and peace to be by their side, while I will be away…”

“Won’t you forget our brief relationship after a few good years?”

“Years?” Minos was surprised. “Gloria, if you stay years away from the Black Plain, you might find a new world here when you return, haha.”

“As my business partner and the Spiritual Church representative for this region, you have plenty of reason to make periodic visits.”

“What’s more, we will soon have cultivation rooms with low-level grade-3 arrays, so even people at your level won’t miss much when visiting Dry City in the near future.”

“Is that so? What about our agreement for the Church to stay out of the Black Plain for 20 years? Wouldn’t I be breaking it by doing that?” She smiled at him.

“It would only be you, and the church wouldn’t have a building on my territory, so no.”

She was silent for a moment and then asked. “What about these grade-3 arrays? Where do you intend to find them? I know that even high-level grade-2 arrays are difficult to produce or buy in this region…”

“Well, that naturally has a little to do with our constant visitors…” He smiled, not hiding the enemies always arriving in his territory as she should know about it. “They brought us several useful arrays and materials.”

“But even if there weren’t any useful arrays for cultivation rooms, those items are enough to help us produce low-level grade-3 array masters.”

Her eyes widened in surprise at this statement from Minos. “How long do you think this will take? I mean, how long will you need to produce an array master of that level?”

“Hmm, let me see…” He put his hand on his chin and looked up thoughtfully. “Well, our highest level array master is at level 56 and is about 500 years old… Hmmm… I guess about five years if I don’t get a better array master than him in that time.”

“But I will be bringing the best professionals in the region to the Black Plain soon, so the time needed for that is probably less.” He said in a confident tone.

“Interesting… Then let’s make a bet.” She winked at him, smiling graciously. “If your Black Plain has a low-level grade-3 expert for every spiritual profession in five years, then I will give you whatever you want and still move to this city.”

“What do you say?”

“Oh? Interesting…”

“Are you sure you want to make this bet? I don’t want to take advantage of you. He bit his lips, looking down at her lips.

She smiled at him and said. “I’m confident in my judgment.”

“Hehe, so tell me something. What if I lose? What will I have to do?”

“Well, we will cancel that agreement from before, and the church will enter the Black Plain after those five years.”

Minos laughed for a moment, but he calmly analyzed the situation to estimate how much risk there was for him in this bet. “I am willing to go through with it if you accept one condition of mine…”

“What is it?”

“Spiritual judges are not included in that bet.”

“Oh? It seems that your confidence is not as great as I imagined…”

“No, the case of spiritual judges is sensitive. The youngest of them in our region with a chance of reaching level 60 is already over 1,400 years old…”

“I am confident, but to think that a person who couldn’t understand the laws necessary to advance to the 7th stage after 1.4 thousand years will do it in 5 is ridiculous.”

“It would be easier for me to reach level 70 in that period…” He joked.

Gloria did not think much about it and soon agreed with him. “Fine, I’ll make that exception.”

“Great!”

…

While those two were talking, all the guests for the ceremony had already seated in the vicinity of the place where Minos and Gloria were.

There were rows of long benches of rare materials, a red carpet that paved the paths, and many curtains in the surroundings adorned the area with flowers.

At the same time, behind the main point of the ceremony location was a beautiful view of one of the artificial lakes inside Dry City, where small boats passed from one side to the other.

Only special guests would participate in this part of the royal wedding, so some citizens who arrived early at that lake and got small boats were watching from afar.

Later there would be the coronation of Abby as the Queen of the Black Plain, the public part of the event. But still, that more private part was definitely more significant, so more than a dozen small boats were on that lake.

“Looks like it’s almost time to start…” Todd Cohen said to his grandfather as he looked back and saw that the brides’ attendants were already taking their places. ‘Ah, if only I could win the favor of one of them…’ He looked at Mona’s side and sighed.

At the same time, the core of the Nash family and Miller House, who was sitting in one row, turned in the direction of the entrance of that place, seeing the soldiers on the outskirts taking their positions.

But as they did so, several experts in the surrounding area almost had their eyes pop out of their faces when a giant serpent appeared on one of the banks of that lake.

Seeing Virtus, none of them were shocked that the leader of the Feathered Serpents had attended this event. But they were shocked to realize that he had already become a Spiritual Emperor!

Recently they had seen many experts of that level. However, those people came from outside the region!

On the other hand, Virtus was a beast that had been allied with Minos for years. Not only that, this was a being that genuinely could only have advanced in this region.

In other words, that region’s first known Spiritual Emperor had been born on the Black Plain!

‘Unbelievable!’ Lorelei Stone looked at that figure with her eyes shining, also seeing two big foxes lying near one of the nearest banks of that place.

“It looks like we will soon have many Spiritual Emperors appearing here…” Patriarch Nash commented in a low voice, more excited about his family condition than ever.

On the other hand, the Miller family members were more than happy to see that beast, each of them grinning from ear to ear.

‘All ended well in the end…’ Supreme elder Miller smiled, satisfied.

If Virtus had achieved such a thing, then it was only a matter of time before he did too!

In any case, murmurs spread through that area until a beeping sounded, ceasing all talk. Then, all heads in that place turned in the direction of where in a short time, Abby and Ruth appeared side by side.

When they appeared there, everyone present, including Minos and Gloria, saw those two more gorgeous ladies, who were more beautiful than ever, and had warm smiles on their faces. Meanwhile, distinctive dresses marked the best qualities of each of them, perfectly matching their haircuts.

Abby had her long blue hair tied up in a knot on top of her head, with a golden tiara there. On the other hand, Ruth had her black hair partially loose, but with her beautiful ears showing, while a silver tiara rested on top of her head.

Also, while Abby’s dress was more reserved, showing less of her body, only giving the impression of what was there, Ruth’s showed a bit more, with a lovely neckline and a side slit on the side of her left leg.

Seeing those two goddesses, each one there praised them in their minds, thinking how lucky Minos was to make those two accept each other.

Beautiful and talented women like them used to be very demanding and proud. So, it was not usually easy to get them to accept sharing.

But not only were the men there giving mental compliments, even the women could not help but be attracted to the appearances of the two.

‘Ah, too bad Minos and them don’t mix their relationship with ours…’ Mendy thought of this as she bit her lips, imagining what it would be like to simultaneously sleep with all three of them.

And similar things were going through Viola’s, Elena’s, and Mirya’s minds as Gloria pouted, not looking too much at the two and soon focusing on Minos.

‘This fellow…’ She saw him looking with a sincere smile on his face at those two, amazed by his women. ‘Looks like you’re no good, huh?’

‘A minute ago, you were flirting with me, but still…’

‘Ah, I have to talk to those two and learn to deal with my jealousy in the future…’ After Gloria thought about it embarrassingly, the trio was side by side, ready for the ceremony to begin.
