The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1037 Decisive

"Is there such a story?" Abby asked without taking her focus off the grandiose skull facing in their direction, with the dark orbits of its eyes directed toward that place where they stood.

Such a skeleton looked very much like that of humans. However, there were some distinct parts. For example, the back of his skull was much larger than it should be, even considering the proportions of his body. On the other hand, his arms were extremely long, coming close to knee height.

But most impressive of all were the two structures on his back, which closely resembled the anatomy of the wings of large birds.

And as Abby and the rest of her group looked at what looked like one of the enormous skeletons of that place, Laura said. "Yes, we don't know what they were called, nor how long it has been since their demise, but the investigative skills of our ancestors were peak."

"Through that and an innate ability that one of our past members had, we have recorded in one of our most important books of the sect that these beings died fighting each other..."

As she talked about that, Minos heard some information that Henricus Longus had already heard in his time, being impressed that these people still knew this, but not so many other essential things.

'It seems that everything in this world eventually returns to its natural state... Even organizations disappear into the river of time.' He sighed as he remembered how powerful that sect was in the time of Henricus Longus.

When that fellow first passed through this place, he was only a Spiritual Saint. Yet, at the same time, the leaders of this organization were Spiritual Demigods. And pondering how such individuals and this organization had basically been forgotten, Minos could not help but sigh.

But while he had his depressing moment, Laura finished talking to Abby and the rest of that group.

"... Because of this, we are pacifists and avoid unnecessary fighting at all costs. We don't want to end up like those who destroyed themselves."

She looked at Minos and asked in a pleading tone. "Minos, can't you forgive those people? I don't think what they did was so bad that they deserve death."

Minos then put his thoughts aside to look at that woman. "No." He said dryly, not caring about the story she had told.

After that, he continued walking through that place, not even looking at Laura.

"What? Why not? Can't you at least tell me a justification for such brutality?"

"What difference does it make if these beings self-destructed by fighting against each other? That doesn't mean anything!"

"On the other hand, we don't know what happens in their time. Who can assure you that they weren't forced into it? Maybe they had gone crazy before a great catastrophe... Who knows?"

"In any case, I can't limit myself because of what other people think. You may have weakened and become people unable to act, but I am different."

"I act according to what I believe and am comfortable doing. Whether or not that is looked upon favorably by others makes no difference."

"I am living for myself, not for you!"

"What a selfish comment!" She said in a low voice, feeling that this person was just another brute with power. "That's why I believe we will eventually end up like them. It's people like you who will destroy our spiritual race!"

But Minos was not offended by that, "Maybe. But there's no sense in me forgiving a person who tried to destroy me just for the potential end of the species."

"Just? You think that's a small thing?"

"Tsk!"

"Laura, do you think we have reached the point where we dominate the Spiritual World and have Gods in our ranks because we were acting like good guys? No, the one who stops evolving is the one who regresses!"

"Only because our ancestors were greedy bastards have we evolved so far as to occupy this entire world!"

He then took a breath for a moment, feeling one of Abby's hands squeezing his waist. "Sigh... I'm not saying we should act chaotically and kill at the slightest sign of disagreement. But your manners are simply too weak."

"If one day you guys face a regional-level catastrophe, your sect will probably disappear because of how weak you have become."

"And I'm not talking about your spiritual power, but your inability to act decisively in view of danger."

Laura made an ugly expression as she looked at Minos, feeling that this young man was simply too cruel and did not understand that his madness could cause the end of them all.

"Aren't you afraid that you are responsible for the end of everything you build?"

"Sigh!"

"I naturally expect my organization and eventual family," He looked at Abby, "to continue to exist for 10 million years after my death."

"At the very least."

"But at the end of the day, all I do is to fulfill my wishes and protect those I care about while I am alive. Once my life ends, everything else will lose meaning, and only if I have been faithful to those needs will I not have wasted my life."

"In that case, it makes no sense to live as a coward because of the potential danger to future generations or because certain people are not happy with my ways."

"I will live my own way, so those two cowards who fled the battlefield will die!" He sensed the spiritual fluctuations of such people, quickly looking toward the two.

Infinite Dream!

Then, Minos activated his mental technique, attacking the two targets standing next to a small house in that area, both still wounded and with bandages on their bodies.

Immediately after that, the two susceptible individuals, who had no notion that Minos would attack them so decisively, fell to the ground, already dead!

"Ahhhhhh!" A woman watching out for those two jumped up in fear, screaming as if she had seen the most terrible thing in the world.

On the other hand, Laura turned to Minos and noticed his technique deactivating, shocked that he killed two people in front of them without the slightest modesty.

'How can he be like that? How can anyone act like that after everything I said?' She wondered, not understanding how this person could think so differently from her.

As for the people in Minos' group, none of them were surprised or upset by his action. They already knew the reason they were there, as well as the fact that their leader was ruthless.

Even Abby, who did not like unnecessary violence, was unwilling to talk to her man to make him think this whole thing through.

One of the reasons she loved him was because Minos was genuine with his ideals, knew how to say no, and did what he wanted, even if others might not like it.

For example, she genuinely would like to have him all to herself. But the fact that, even though he knew this, even though he loved her, he still went out with other women did not diminish her love for him. On the contrary, it only increased it!

She genuinely loved that he was unwilling to give up his own personality!

So, even though she did not like some of the killings he had done on his journey here, she would hardly feel bad for his actions.

"You truly are terrible... They didn't even get a chance to say anything." Laura said in a low voice, feeling all the excitement of trying to hear from Minos about the history of this sect she did not know to go away.

But Abby stepped forward and defended her man, "You got it wrong. Minos was quite merciful in ending those people's lives quickly."

"Other regional leaders would have taken them away for a public execution. After all, it's not every day that a Spiritual Emperor is executed in this region!"

'Poor girl... She's in love with this lunatic person...' Laura shook her head in silence but said nothing.

Her visions were the right ones. She knew that. So, at this moment, there was no point in continuing to argue with these people, these barbarians.

'Hopefully, they will leave before they further desecrate our sanctum.' She sighed as she watched Maxwell go to collect the items from those corpses.
