The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 522: Ending the Deal With Mendy 2

After hearing these conditions from Minos, Mendy couldn't help but swallow her saliva in anticipation.

Suppose her family could have ten people with combat proficiency similar to Abby's. In that case, it could become one of the strongest houses in the region in less than a century!

That way, she couldn't help but imagine how amazing this would be. 'If my dad can achieve that, then he can quickly get close to the regional limit power…' She was thinking of something when suddenly a question emerged in her mind. "By the way, are there any level restrictions regarding the people who can be sent here?"

Hearing this, Minos smiled for a moment as he realized what Mendy was thinking. "I don't see a problem, although it's a waste to give this opportunity to high-level cultivators who are past their prime... Young people would definitely have better long-term results."

"But don't forget that I won't let these people out of the Dry City area for six years!"

"Then maybe it's not good for you to send someone of high importance to your family..." He looked into her eyes and said. "You understand me?"

"Tsk, I forgot about that..." She muttered in a low voice, realizing the situation. 'But even so, we have several people at the 5th stage who could quickly become Spiritual Kings if we invested heavily in them. And so, this opportunity could have more effective results in the short term!'

After a moment of thinking about this matter, Mendy finally concluded and said. "OK, Minos. I think that's enough for me to try to convince my dad to make this deal with you."

"Hehehe, I thought you would say that."

"And what do we do from now on?"

Minos then directed that young woman towards the exit of the headquarters while he spoke to her. "Well, you must return to your family to talk about this with them. If they agree, then you have to keep in mind that I will only receive the first two people after those two parts of my order are fulfilled."

"You mean the part about the Soul Contracts and contacting the Hayes family?"

"Yes. Only when this is done will you have the right to send these members here. Anyway, after that, we can discuss how our business will be done, as I really won't be able to do that in a short time."

"What? Why not?" She asked doubtfully. Even though those two parts seemed important to Minos, this young woman thought doing business was the main thing for this young man.

"At the moment, I already sell everything that the Black Plain produces. So the only business I could do with your family would be for you to help me get some resources and people willing to come here."

"But this needs to be done in secret, so we don't draw unnecessary attention..." He said with a deep look on his face as he took one of Mendy's hands and clarified the importance of this to her.

"Right. I will remember that."

"As for the Soul Contracts, we will do the following..."

After that, the two continued to talk about the details of this agreement, how it could be done, and some deadlines that would need to be met. Finally, these two ended their conversation shortly after they arrived in front of the government mansion.

"So that's all, Mendy. When will you leave?" Minos asked as he stopped in front of his mansion's garden.

"Originally, I wanted to spend more time here to see aunt Mirya's recovery. But since this is going to take time and you and I have already come to an agreement, then I'll do it tomorrow."

"Hmm, I understand. Well, how about we have dinner later?" He asked with a flirtatious smile at the same time as he stretched his arm up to this young woman's slender waist.

"Oh? That's a good idea... Hehe, I can't wait."

...

After finishing his conversation with Mendy, Minos wasted no time in returning to his office, where he still had several matters to settle.

A few days ago, the army had finished a new selection. Because of that, he constantly received reports regarding the details of the new members of his organization. That was important for him, as there would always be a chance that people like Alina would appear among these new soldiers.

Hence, Minos had had to read reports about it for the past few weeks, something that would continue to happen until he understood the status of the more than thousands of new soldiers!

With this latest addition, there were now more than 10,500 soldiers in the Black Plain Army. In addition, the number of Spiritual Kings reached 8, counting Mirya and Celeste, and Spiritual Generals rising to 1,800!

In addition, the 50 Elite Squad soldiers were struggling daily. They were the closest to reaching level 50 within his organization, of course, considering the exceptions related to people with Black talent invited by this sovereign to join this force.

However, even considering these people, only Minos, Abby, and Viola had a chance of reaching the next stage in a short time.

Anyway, in addition to these data related to new soldiers in his army, Minos also saw daily information about municipal police officers.

Such organization was not very relevant for the protection of the Black Plain. Still, it was the one who organized the daily life in this city. Hence, Minos also dedicated part of his time to dealing with this organization. Especially the additions of the power, which had been steadily increasing in numbers!

After all, with the arrival of prisoners at the local prison, such an organization would need to increase its numbers...

And it was no wonder that in less than a year since its creation, this organization had already reached more than 2,000 members!

Pa! Pa!

While Minos was reading about these subjects, he suddenly heard some knocks on his office door until Mia walked in and said. "Young master, Sergeant Joey is here to speak with you."

"OK, ask him to come in, Mia."

...

After a brief moment, Minos greeted and invited that old figure to sit in that office, one of the people responsible for the administrative part of his army.

"Young master, I came here today to present the results of what was found in the spatial ring of that assassin of the Scourges of the Devil." Joey said this as he placed a stack of papers in front of Minos.

"Is there anything relevant?"

"In the short term, maybe not. But we found some things we didn't know." He said this, pointing out to Minos some information in those papers.

"There is some information that we don't understand well. For example, there is this situation in a letter where that murderer seems to be warned about a certain ceremony."

"But there are letters where he basically communicates with his customers. There are meeting places, targets, values, etc."

"There is also a situation involving an assassin named Curtis. It seems that assassin who sacrifices himself hasn't heard the news from Curtis for several months since such a person went to the Cromwell Kingdom to solve some problems."

"And from the content of some of this information, we have information about other noble families in our region who are in harmony with this organization of assassins."

"Oh? What families are these?"

"House Reid from the Kingdom of the Waves, and the House Hargraves from the Kingdom of the End."

'Reid? I'm sure I've heard such a name before…' Minos thought about it for a moment. But soon, he let it go. After all, if he couldn't remember it, it shouldn't be relevant to him...

"Well, thanks for the information, Mr. Joey. Ask the army to add these two families as our enemies, if they aren't already..."

"All right."

Upon hearing this, Minos got up from his chair, walked to that room's center, and sat down next to Joey. "By the way, since you're here, tell me how Alina's development is going..."
