A few days later…

In one of the many artificial forests made by the Black Plain in this territory, a large group of humans was assembled at one of the edges of this place.

In this region near the Black Plain’s border with the Cromwell Kingdom, several small camp structures were in the surroundings, near the many secret entrances to this forest.

But not only humans were in this area, but beasts of various kinds were also stationed there, waiting for the moment to act.

There were birds so big that they could carry up to six people on their backs, tigers the size of two-story human houses, and the famous Feathered Serpents. Also, in this area was a group of red-furred monkeys.

One of these monkeys, one at level 60, then looked at the leader of this place and asked. “Elder Virtus, when are we going to act? My hand is already aching!”

The great Feathered Serpent leader of this forest, level 62, then looked at that Diamond Monkey and replied. “I don’t know. We have to wait for Minos’ signal. Anyway, it shouldn’t be long…”

Hearing this, the leader of the Diamond Monkeys, a tribe living in a part of the Endless Snow Mountain Range within Minos’ territory, became silent.

This group had been gathered a few days ago when Minos received the information from his spies that a large assembly of the criminals of Albano was going to take place on this day. Because of this, the King of the Black Plain had already given his orders for the allied and vassal forces to gather in the forests of his state.

Not only in this post where Virtus was, there were people from Minos’ forces, but in every forest and region close to the enemy camps, there were groups like this one.

In this place was Virtus, that Diamond Monkey, and six more Spiritual Emperors. At five other points in this territory were Emlyn, Abby, and Ruth, in short, except Gloria, all the Spiritual Emperors of this state.

Even those individuals of Stone Island were at this instant preparing for battles at the borders of the Black Plain. Except for King Stone, all the top experts of that state had obeyed Minos’ call to fight in this place.

On the other hand, more than 2,000 Spiritual Kings were together with these experts, each ready to help deal with the tens of thousands of enemy Spiritual Kings.

The difference between their numbers was huge, but each had spent at least four years training in teams, aiming to improve their weaknesses through the collective. In addition, they had the advantage of their positions, arrays, and weapons suited to their strengths.

So, even in this complicated situation, determined looks could be seen among the many humans in the surroundings of these camps.

In the case of the beasts, they naturally viewed the battlefield more positively than the humans, so they were the least concerned.

Even Kyla was in one of these groups, eager to be able to fight and demonstrate her level 55 powers.

As for Gloria, she naturally knew about all of Minos’ planning, but as a member of the Spiritual Church, she had stayed in Dry City.

At first, she did not want to do such a thing since watching the battlefield was not precisely a limitation for her. As long as she did not get involved in helping either side, there would be no problem with her watching everything.

But Minos had insisted that she stay in Dry City and ensure the safety of that place in his absence. Because of that, she was not around.

“Will we be able to win?” Robin, level 54, asked Barbara, level 55, and Peter, level 57, who were standing nearby.

Peter then massaged his friend’s shoulder and said. “Of course, with His Grace on our side, we will win in no time. We just have to deal with the situation until he or the other groups finish with their tasks.”

Each team was going to attack a different enemy camp since the enemies were spread out in several groups around the borders of the Black Plain. So, naturally, the strongest of this Minos’ force would support other groups once they finished their missions.

Since several powerful people were on Minos’ side, Peter was confident of victory for the Black Plain!

Barbara then commented. “Robin, don’t doubt our strength. Every soldier in the army above level 55 has combat proficiencies similar to the strongest Spiritual Kings on the enemies’ side. But most of them are not at that level. Many are of lower levels than yours!”

“Thus, we have more of an advantage than you think!”

Brooke, who was also standing there, then said. “And don’t forget that we have several levels 61 and even some level 62 Spiritual Emperors on our side!”

“Each of them can easily kill a hundred enemy leaders with ease!”

Hearing this, Robin felt reassured as she continued to lie on a plot of land near the enemy camp they were going to attack.

…

At the same time as that, in another forested region, near the border with the Brown Kingdom, Ruth and Abby were leading the group in that place.

“Your Graces, isn’t it better for you to return to Dry City? I think it is too dangerous for you to participate in this confrontation.”

Gaia, a level 60 Feathered Serpent, said as she looked at those two humans near the front point from where their attack would depart.

Those two women were not with Minos, so that beast was naturally worried that something might happen to them.

“Don’t worry, Gaia,” Abby said with a smile on her face. “Ruth and I have instantaneous teleportation arrays with us. So, if someone powerful shows up on the battlefield, we will flee immediately.”

Ruth nodded and said. “Besides, we have our royal guard with us.”

Besides Abby’s father, who was there, the members of the royal guard, Eduard, Mirya, Celeste, and Angela, were also in this group. Their job in this place was naturally to eliminate enemy Spiritual Kings. But if anything unusual arose, their priority was ensuring the King’s wives’ survival.

Besides them, Dillian was also there to take care of any possible problems regarding them.

Anyway, listening to Ruth and Abby’s explanation, Gaia did not know what else to say, but she still did not like risks as significant as these.

“Don’t overthink about it. After Minos, we are the strongest in the region.” Abby commented in a confident tone. “Unless a Spiritual Saint shows up to hunt us down, we have enough strength to at least escape in time.”

“Sigh…”

“Fine. But let my group begin the attack.”

…

Meanwhile, in the camp led by Emlyn, Kyla was standing next to her mother, anxiously waiting for the attack to begin.

“Mom, where is big brother? Is he going to attack with us?” She asked, amidst the group of Spiritual Emperors in that area, among them, Lorelei and other people from Stone Island.

Emlyn, who advanced two days ago to level 62, then answered. “Minos will attack the enemy’s main camp, so he is not around to fight on your side.”

“Ahh…” The ‘little’ one next to Emlyn lamented as she looked at the spiritual beasts at the peak 6th stage who was there.

As she began to make her plans with her friends, Adam Snow and King Carline’s women were also in the area, but they had not yet advanced to the 7th stage.

He asked. “Who will attack with Minos? I saw him leaving alone earlier…”

Some 7th stage beasts and humans then looked in the direction of this fellow and laughed.

“He will naturally attack alone.” Someone said this in a funny tone.

“What?” The two harem sisters felt worried upon hearing such a thing. “Isn’t that dangerous? I would be willing to go with him if he wanted to!” One of the two said.

Elen, who was in that group, then declared. “The main camp of the enemies should have around 10 to 15 thousand Spiritual Kings.”

“It’s truly a danger to us, but not to him.”

Elena, standing next to Elen, then laughed and said. “You two are underestimating Minos!”

“He can finish off his enemies and still come to help us…”

“Impossible!”

“No way!” The two exclaimed as neither of them was aware of Minos’ combat proficiency after he reached the 7th stage.

‘A Spiritual Emperor can do all that?’ Jade looked in the direction of Emlyn, the strongest in this place.
