The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

While the strongest Bishops of that Spiritual Church branch were discussing the possibilities concerning the Black Plain, the Collins family had just discovered what had happened at that base!

After weeks of sailing, that surviving group had experienced several problems, even being attacked by sea beasts and pirate groups. But after many difficulties, they had reached the headquarters of the Collins family.

As such, they finally had given their complete reports of what they knew and had seen in that place, something they had not been able to do for many reasons.

For example, during the confrontation against that Nash family ship, the Spiritual King they had faced had killed all the crows on that ship to prevent messages from being sent by those people.

But, unfortunately, he had died, and his action had been of no use to himself...

But this had made it more difficult for these survivors to send such information to the Collins family headquarters.

In any case, they had managed to return to such a place after many trials. Hence, by now, the entire command of this noble family of the Kingdom of the Waves already knew the tragic results of that mission!

Almost 4,000 people had died. Among them, 9 Spiritual Kings had perished, while the last one was still showing signs of life but was probably captured by enemy forces.

To make matters worse, the person who had survived was one of the family's nobles, a level 55 cultivator, who knew a lot and didn't have a Soul Contract limiting her!

Consequently, they had conquered a new enemy who certainly already knew a lot of information about this great noble family.

...

Melia City, Kingdom of the Waves.

Three people were walking through a courtyard of a large mansion in this city of the Collins family while talking in solemn tones.

"Page's group was brutally slaughtered on the Black Plain..."

"Ah, how pitiful." A man who seemed to be at the end of his life said this while his white robe shook with every step he took.

Meanwhile, a young man with black hair was walking beside this figure, with an ugly expression on his face. He was dressed in a noble silver robe, full of fine details, typically worn by those of high regional status.

But no matter how attractive his clothes were, the look on his face would draw all the attention of anyone who saw him due to the bad mood he was in now.

The old man then continued, not caring about the angry countenance on the young man's face. "To make matters worse, we now potentially have two high-level regional enemies."

Upon hearing this, the bodyguard, who was walking behind the black-haired young man, and who was wearing armor from the local royal guard, frowned and asked. "Patriarch Constant, why do you say that? Do you think more than one organization operated that place?"

The patriarch of the Collins family, Constant Collins, level 58, then shook his head in denial and said. "No. I mean the Nash family ship we attacked."

"After our troops annihilated the crew of that ship that had no identification, our survivors discovered the identity of the Spiritual King who was protecting that ship."

"And that was a Nash family ship!" He said this as his eyes narrowed, and a killing intention could be seen on his face.

"But that whole crew was annihilated... Plus, the Nash family is already at war with the Allen family. So, they'll probably think it was something from those enemies of theirs."

"No, we wish that possibility were plausible..." Then, finally, the young man said something, as he disagreed with his bodyguard. "Uncle Constant is right in thinking that the Nash family will know about it."

"After all, the people on that base know that we attacked that place, and aunt Page herself, who is possibly in captivity, was the one who gave the order for such an attack."

"Therefore, the people on that base, who seem to have relations with the Nash family, certainly know about this incident and will notify their partners about it!"

"Hmmm." Constant made a gesture of agreement while looking sideways at this young descendant, who was very important to the plans of this organization despite not being part of the family.

'Young Charles is brilliant. At his age, his father would not be better than him at anything!' So, he thought to himself, as he felt a little satisfaction, despite the losses he had just had.

But that was only natural...

Regardless of how significant those losses had been, with Charles Walker on his side, he had one of the three strongest organizations in the region on his side!

So, even if the present times were difficult, as long as Charles ruled the kingdom, his family would have every opportunity to grow to the size of these three top regional organizations!

Anyway, upon hearing the crown prince's answer, this young man's bodyguard, level 57, understood the whole situation. "So, how will the Collins family handle this? Does Your Highness intend to do anything about it?"

Charles then said. "For now, I can't do anything since it will still be a while before I have control over the royal guard..."

"Hmm, that's normal."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will take sensible action until we can act together to avenge our losses." Constant replied as he tapped one of Charles' shoulders and made a confident gesture.

"But as much as it is unwise to act against that naval base on the Black Plain until we have more information about that place, things are different for the Nash family!"

"Since they are already at war against the Allen family, we might as well fund the enemies of our enemies..."

And then the three continued to talk about this subject for a while, having talked about plans for dealing with those two organizations that they presumed to be their newest enemies. But, on the other hand, after talking about these bad matters, they didn't take long to arrange new partnerships of the royal family with the House Collins.

Although Charles was not a member of the Collins family, his mother was. And this young royal heir had always been very close to his mother's side of the family. In fact, almost all of this young man's friends and love interests were in this family...

As such, he would not let that organization be left behind when he took command of the largest state in the northern region of the Central Continent!

...

Meanwhile, in Dry City...

Minos and the two women from Primrose had already arrived in this city on the Black Plain a few hours ago.

Hence, Vivian and Grace had already separated from this young sovereign to finally plan what their lives would be like here for the following year.

They had bought a high-standard apartment in Dry City, which they still needed to get to know and arrange in the best way that would please them. But, on the other hand, they wanted to truly experience this place, which they had not been able to do due to their previous brief time here.

With that, Minos had made his way to his mansion alone, where he intended to take a day off with his two girlfriends before finally returning to work the next day...

A man needed to be focused!

However, while Minos was having a good time with his girlfriends, Todd had returned to Dry City.

After he had negotiated the details of the alliance with Minos almost two months ago, this young man had not been slow to return to the Cohen family headquarters.

And since he had plenty of evidence that such an alliance with Minos was a good thing for the Cohen family, the patriarch of that organization had readily accepted the deal.

So, even though the leaders of Todd's family had not yet signed Soul Contracts with Minos, they were already acting as if they were his allies. For example, some time ago, this young ruler of the Black Plain had asked them to spy on the Collins family.

As requested, they were already keeping an eye on the actions of that organization!

But while the command of this family was already acting in this way, Todd had come to Dry City with some of his fellow family members to follow through with the negotiated agreement....
