The Rise of the Black Plain

After cuddling with Minos for a moment, Abby clenched her fists, mustering the strength needed to give her answer.

'I choose to save the mother!' She said in her mind as she closed her eyes, feeling the contradiction in her heart.

The moment Abby gave her answer, the Goddess of Life did not answer her back, but the people who seemed to have frozen in time a few moments ago moved again.

"Let's save the mother!" The midwife said in determination as her helpers began to make the necessary preparations.

"No! Don't do that!" The pregnant woman broke into despair, feeling relief at not having to die but much more sadness in her being at having to lose her baby.

"Please save him..."

But the women there ignored her pleas as the midwife used her instruments to remove part by part of the baby from the mother's womb.

'What a terrible thing...' Abby hugged Minos and hid her face in his chest, not believing that that was the way to save the mother.

Abby would never have thought that in saving the mother, the baby would have to be killed like that!

Hence, she could not help but feel bad at the moment as her man hugged her. "Stay calm, Abby. I'm sure none of this is real. That is just a test."

He had said that, but he also felt a little strange. Even more so considering the tiny body parts, the midwife had already piled into a basin in front of them.

'Brown eyes, huh? That's truly a tease!' He looked awkwardly at the floor. 'Are you trying to compare this to my baby with Gloria? It won't work. I know none of it is real!'

After that, Minos took Abby in his arms and tried to leave that place. However, when he did so, the scenery in the surroundings suddenly changed.

It was still the interior of the same house as before, but instead of a room with open, well-lit windows and lots of bloodstains, there was a shaded place with candlelight.

In this place, there were red flowers scattered on the floor and no traces of blood or the pale woman from earlier.

There were no people there now, just a messy bed, indicating that someone had used it.

"That..." Minos muttered in a low voice, drawing his wife's attention to the change in the situation.

"Now, what's in here?" He asked as he watched her dry her little watery eyes.

But as he asked that, he suddenly heard a moan coming from another part of that house.

"Ahhhh~"

They both looked in the same direction, putting aside their thoughts about the difficult choice from earlier.

After that, they looked at each other, already knowing that a couple was having fun in that place.

"Let's see what's in here. Maybe that's the next part of this test." She left his arms and took a step forward.

After walking slowly, the two reached the end of a hallway, where they saw a man and a woman having sex like animals.

But again, the two looked at the woman's face in surprise, seeing a look they knew well in that black-haired woman.

"That's Ruth's appearance..." Abby commented as she looked at her man, sensing that the Goddess of Life was testing him on the appearances of these people.

Minos closed his eyes and cursed the person behind this inheritance. 'Looks like you were a slut in life!'

But besides being a little irritated, he did not lose his composure since he knew this was a little game for the Goddess of Life.

"Ahhhh~ fuck me, Jake~" That black-haired woman screamed in excitement as she felt her precious part being rudely invaded by a merciless rod.

"Minos!" Abby exclaimed as she saw someone else besides them watching all this, a man standing outside that house, watching everything through the window.

More importantly, the man in question looked like an old version of Minos!

King Stuart opened his eyes and saw the reason for Abby's exclamation, noticing this person who seemed to be boiling with anger.

But he had already understood what the Goddess of Life was doing and just thought of something else. 'We are in front of him... But he doesn't see us. Is that because we are invisible? Or he is simply too shocked to pay attention to us?'

While he was wondering about this, that man broke the window and entered that part of his house, furious at catching his wife in the act with their neighbor.

"You bitch!"

"How could you?" He shouted with hate as part of his hands bled from the force he was squeezing them.

Hearing that, the two lovers lost attention on what they were doing and jumped in opposite directions, disconnecting their bodies.

"My love, it's not what you're thinking!" The black-haired woman said with nervousness, not knowing how to escape that situation. "It's not what you think. He was raping me!"

"What?" Both men shouted at the same time in surprise at that woman's shamelessness.

The lover then said. "Man, don't listen to this woman. She is the one who seduced me!"

"Bullshit!"

"My love, this man forced me to have sex with him, or he would hurt me!" She began to cry as she crawled to her husband's side, showing Minos and Abby her dirty ass with the seeds of that individual coming out of her two holes...

At that instant, the three froze their movements while Abby again listened to the noble voice from earlier in her mind.

'That is the second of three decisions you must make.'

'1. Forgive the wife and let the lover go.'

'2. Kill the lover and forgive the wife.'

'3. Kill the wife and let the lover go.'

'4. Kill them.'

'You have 10 minutes to make up your mind.' The female voice ceased, leaving Abby not as surprised as before, but still tormented by having to decide the fate of more people.

While Abby was getting those options, Minos was thinking about the Goddess of Life. 'I bet the last test I will find someone with Abby's face...'

'Tsk!'

'What a crazy expert! She hasn't even reached Henricus Longus' level, but she keeps decorating her tests like that...'

Abby then explained to him the choices in front of her. "What do I do now, dear? Unfortunately, I seem to have to choose what the betrayed husband will do."

Minos frowned his eyebrows and then looked at his wife thoughtfully. "In the previous test, I shouldn't have said anything. I let my emotions get in my way when I saw Gloria's face. But now, on second thought, I think you should make your own choices, Abby."

"Oh?" She opened her mouth and looked at those three people, realizing that this was her test, so even if the Goddess of Life wanted to provoke Minos, she had to make her decisions on her own.

'Well, I have to set something that would align with my personality, but with Minos, Ruth, and Gloria as well...'

'We're partners, so we can't make decisions without thinking about how they would affect others!' So she thought just before giving her answer.
