The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

'On the one hand, he is probably to blame for part of what happened in Vogel. But, on the other, he has a right to have done that. After all, we don't forbid the powers of the northern region to act against those from other parts of the continent...'

And not for nothing. After all, what could mere Spiritual Kings and very few Spiritual Emperors do outside the northern region?

Because of this, only that weak region was protected from outside powers, and Minos' actions did not go against the Church's rules. But Vogel, on the other hand, had disrespected that noble institution and committed serious crimes that they knew would bring wrath upon themselves.

So was it wrong for Minos to move into that place to help the Church discover the Vogel family's plots and still wish to seize local power?

From the point of view of the rules of the Spiritual Church, Minos actually deserved to receive a medal, while House Vogel should be hunted down and exterminated!

But even knowing this, this Spiritual Sage did not like this situation at all, feeling as if it was wrong not even to question this person acting for his own interests.

'Never mind. I wash my hands of this problem.'

'The Vogel family attracted this little devil into their home, so it's only fair that they ended up like this...' He pondered after considering the matter for a few moments.

But then he remembered Minos' level and laughed. 'Hell, they're incompetent!'

'Even if this young man is out of the ordinary, the difference between levels is too great!'

'Then they can only blame themselves for being negligent and ending up in the current situation because of someone of level 61.'

As for the situation involving Minos and the other three neighboring states in the northern region, this man could not do anything about it. And he didn't care either.

The Church would try to avoid conflicts in their states, but at the end of the day, they were not totally against conflicts and problems like this man thought. So if Minos was using a weapon like the one that created the Vulcanic Region to threaten Rosser, Albano, and Blackrock, that was those states' problems with the Black Plain, not the Spiritual Church's.

Hence, this Cardinal soon put this matter of Minos blackmailing such kingdoms aside and turned his attention to those four people who had deceived him about the previous matter.

First, he turned his attention to Gloria, who had not yet answered his question.

The people in the surrounding area realized he wanted to hear these people, so they stopped asking questions, making room for Gloria to say something.

"Cardinal, I was not working that day, so I was without my uniform. As for not identifying myself, I am pregnant, so I just wanted to avoid our trip back here being delayed by any mishaps."

He heard this and realized that Gloria was pregnant, even considering her young age. "You truly are pregnant... And is a very talented little girl." He murmured, feeling the age of the fetus growing in the belly of this level 69 cultivator.

"All right, I'll forgive your disrespectful actions that day, but I still want to hear your statement about what happened in the Vogel capital." Then, he made a finger gesture, causing those four to float toward him.

Minos realized what he wanted to do and shouted. "Wait a moment. Let's do it here. There's no need for us to go to Vogel!"

"That will be your punishment for deceiving me!" The old Spiritual Sage smiled as he opened a wormhole to Vogel, quickly taking Minos and those three with him.

'Damn it!' Minos shouted in his mind, already finding himself inside that strange path commonly used by Spiritual Sages and stronger ones to travel.

'All on account of that woman! What a motherf...'

...

As the five people disappeared from that temple in the capital of the Flaming Empire, Joseph looked at his wife and saw that she had an ugly expression on her face.

"What is it, dear?"

"I didn't think he would take Gloria too." She replied, feeling it was a shame that all this had happened.

Margot thought she could make that fellow suffer a little by arranging to send him to Vogel while Gloria would stay home for the next few months, away from Minos. But, unfortunately, she had not counted on the overreaction of the Spiritual Sage in question.

"It's too late now..." Joseph smiled at her, but he was still thinking about the information brought by that Spiritual Sage. 'So Minos can do something of that level? Not bad!'

'It seems he is more talented than I had thought.'

But for Margot Minos' talent and power did not change his status much in her mind since this fellow had impregnated her precious daughter without giving Gloria a chance to do other things in her life.

Anyway, while the people in the surroundings of this temple were talking about what had just happened, the emperor of this state was still watching in the direction of such a place in curiosity.

As a level 80 Spiritual Sage, he had been the first to notice that level 81 man's arrival and begin to observe the situation from afar. Thus, he had followed all the discussion in that place and was curious to talk to some of his old friends about the young man who had been taken to Vogel.

"Invite the Frost family to a dinner party at my house in four days." He gave his order to one of the imperial guards in his throne hall.

Harold did not like the idea of Vogel recovering and returning to the side of those other three states, almost unaffected. But Minos taking over that state differed from a local family doing that!

At the same time, like the Cardinal of the Spiritual Church, this old 'fox' had thought that Minos was blackmailing other states to speak on his behalf.

He had informants everywhere, so he was aware of the negotiations going on in Vogel with the royal families of Rosser, Albano, and Blackrock working for the Black Plain.

Then, Harold had 'understood' Minos' movement against Vogel and could not help but wish to talk to that young grandson of Oswald to hear some of his ideas.

If possible, he wanted to act with King Stuart to finish his historical enemies more easily!

'That young man is interesting...' He pondered as he returned to his training area. 'He has just won a war of independence and is already aiming to expand his domains.'

'I wonder what his potential is? And what is he planning? Will I be next?' He laughed as he thought about that last question, knowing it was impossible for Minos.

...

So, in the blink of an eye, dozens of minutes had passed since the departure of Minos' group from Payton.

And just at this instant, a spatial distortion appeared over the capital of Vogel, with the appearance of five people in that place soon afterward.

"Well, welcome back to Vogel!" The Spiritual Sage said while the Spiritual Saints that Minos had met before were on the outskirts of that place, already waiting for them.

"You want to become the king of this place, don't you, Minos? Then I am confident you will not find it bad to visit your future city for a few more days..." He said with a smile on his face, as people in the surroundings were surprised by this information.
