The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 551: Before Departure 2

After two hours of wild sex, Minos and Ruth had finally finished, when the two had disconnected their bodies and gone straight to the shower. As they did, they both had expressions of happiness and relief on their faces, especially the black-haired girl, who was feeling quite warm in her heart.

Having an official relationship with Minos was an essential step for her. As such, she couldn't help but be satisfied, despite not having yet reached an agreement on the previous matter.

But she liked the way Minos handled this subject. That gave her the assurance that another woman would not appear and take her place... After all, she knew Minos' personality very well, so she wouldn't think there wouldn't be others in the future!

And so, she was at this moment rubbing her boyfriend's back while the two of them were talking about a particular subject.

"Ruth, in the next few days, I will have to go to Abby's family city. I need White to make this trip. Will you lend it to me, or will you go with us?" He asked.

Hearing this, that young woman didn't even blink when she responded promptly. "How long will it take for this? If it's going to take longer than two days, I'll go with you."

"Hehe, it will take more than a week just to get there and back..."

"So when do we leave?"

The young Stuart then turned to her until he began to soap Ruth's sensual body, enjoying the beautiful sight in front of him. Minos was used to women as beautiful as Ruth, Abby, Elena, but he never tired of appreciating the beauty of the women he slept with. And he always took advantage of these opportunities to observe them even after his younger brother retreated...

"It shouldn't take long... Let's see if my soldiers come back today. If that happens, we'll leave tomorrow morning."

"All right!"

...

After that, several hours had passed since Minos and Ruth had talked about the trip to the Miller family city.

However, the soldiers that had chased Urban had only reached the Dry City this morning, thus delaying the trio's journey.

In any case, this wasn't entirely out of Minos' plans. This young man was already prepared to wait longer for those soldiers. With that, the moment their arrival was announced, a meeting at the headquarters of the local army was immediately called!

After finding out exactly what had happened during Urban's chase, the local forces could finally begin their planning!

...

In a large hall at headquarters, many people were stuffed in that place, sitting around a large table or standing on the sides of that area.

There were Minos, at the head of the table, Dillian, just to the right of this young man, the two girlfriends of this ruler were behind him, while on his left side was Mia. At the same time as this, several of the administrative soldiers and the army's strongest individuals, including some from the Elite Squad, were standing there quietly, listening to all the instructions from their boss.

"Unfortunately, we have passed the point where we still have control of the situation..." Minos firmly said as he looked from one side of that room to the other, seeing the many worried expressions around there. "The Silva family found out about Dry City, and it's only a matter of time before their troops come to our city."

"However, the next two or three weeks should still be peaceful for us, and we must take advantage of that time to act as quickly as possible!"

"We don't know what exactly that Spiritual King wrote to the Silva family, as he was extremely hurt at that time. But we must assume the worst."

"So, I'm going to the Miller family to try to make an urgent deal with that power, and then I'll be back in the Dry City in time for us to deal with the consequences of that incident..."

"But in the meantime... Butler Dillian, you can tell them." Minos looked away and waved his right arm.

Upon hearing and noticing young Stuart's gesture, the butler immediately began to explain. "Well, first we need to speed up the progress of the invasion of the Maritime City, as well as the constructions of the outposts."

"I already talked about it with secretary Mia, and the whole situation is already being resolved concerning the workers. However, we will have to send soldiers to these posts as soon as possible, starting from..."

...

"We will decrease the presence of soldiers at each of the wall posts and will allocate those soldiers who normally stayed there to the future outposts."

"Such outposts will play a key role shortly of the Dry City, which will be to protect our city's trade routes as well as the local defensive area."

...

The meeting continued for almost four hours straight, with many people asking about what could and should be done. At the same time, various questions about how the soldiers should act had been explained.

In all this, the Elite Squad had been the only one that would not have an essential role in this first moment since it was the trump card of the Black Plain.

Such a team would only be used in times of greatest need or when the soldiers on this team had fully matured.

However, Minos and the administrative soldiers found it difficult not to use these forces in the short term, especially following the time stipulated for the soldiers to complete their training.

At first, soldiers were required to spend three years training in the Spatial Kingdom so that any of them could act. However, with the recent changes, this time clearly could not be fulfilled!

As such, Minos asked Celeste and the other higher-level people in the Spatial Kingdom to train those soldiers even more rigorously.

Finally, another selection for new soldiers and new Elite Squad members was to take place within a month at the latest so that more people could join the local forces.

Obviously, it would take time for these people to be trained to a level where they could have relevance in battle. But the very fact of having more soldiers would already facilitate the army's actions, given that the command of this organization could send those more experienced and strong individuals to the outposts.

Thus, these more powerful soldiers would be more effective in protecting the territory of the Black Plain. At the same time, the newcomers could have some time while training within the area covered by the Dry City dome.

Anyway, that had been the basics of what had been talked about at that emergency meeting.

Some of Minos' other plans for this situation depended on external factors, which he couldn't count on right now. Like, for example, the alliances that this young man wanted to make.

For now, he had to wait until Mendy's family accepted the previous agreement, and contact was made with the Hayes family. As for the other possibilities, he was still working on these.

On the other hand, he still has to deal with the Gill family...

...

After finishing that meeting, Minos immediately went to his office while he waited for his two girlfriends to deal with some issues relating to their trip.

Since the Silva family was probably already aware of the changes in the Dry City, he could no longer wait for the next day to travel. He had to do this as soon as possible so that the least amount of damage was done to his territory!

And as such, he was settling some matters right now, while he couldn't stop thinking about the threat of war that was lurking in his domain.

'Will the Silva family inform the royal family? Or will they try something on their own first?' This young man thought to himself, with a deep look on his face.

'And the Gill family? Is there any way I can use them?'

But while Minos was warming his head in an attempt to solve these problems, Mia entered his office and warned him about Regina's visit.

Upon hearing this, he immediately asked this woman to come in, as she might have good news for him. After all, Mirya had already signed a contract with him, and the sooner she recovered, the better for the Black Plain!

Anyway, after greeting Regina, young Stuart got right to the point. "So, do you have any special reasons for coming here? Perhaps Mirya's treatment has advanced?"

"Well, she's doing fine, but I'm here to talk about a personal matter..."
