The Rise of the Black Plain

"That could be done..." Oswald said, liking Minos' plan.

He was pleased that his grandson was interested in taking on this sect, even if the main reason for it had no connection to that.

At the same time, Minos entering this war against the Saints Killing Sect would be a good thing to prove his strength to the elders of the Gray Clouds Sect.

After all, Oswald had not yet told most of the relevant people in his organization that Minos would replace him. So, naturally, these people would ask questions, which could easily be solved with demonstrations of power.

On the other hand, this was a sign that his retirement was not far off, something he was very interested in after so long in the position of sect master.

As for the risks that Minos could bring to this organization by wanting to use it in the northern region, the sect master was not worried about it. At the end of the day, this threat that the Black Plain faced was still lower than the level of the Gray Clouds Sect.

A Spiritual Sage was involved in all of this, true. But he was not acting directly against Minos' forces. Knowing this, Oswald was relaxed about the problem called Abe Vogel.

Patience sighed as she listened to her husband but understood that this was the best decision. That would not only be favorable for them, but it would also be good for the sect as well since this was a possibility to end the war against the Saints Killing Sect more quickly.

The difference between having Minos on their side was that this young man could use enemy forces to hurt those same enemies. No one else could do this, which justified the difference a single person could make in a conflict.

But in addition, as his grandparents, it would be good for them to help him solve his problems when necessary. That way, everyone could gain from this decision. Thus, that woman agreed with Oswald, feeling that it was what was necessary.

She continued with little Sarah in her arms, seeing the big brown eyes of this little girl that looked like those of her oldest daughter.

"Food! I want food!" She called out to Patience, feeling hungry but aware that this person would spoil her.

As Sarah demanded things from her great-grandmother, Minos said to his grandfather. "Good. Then we can move things along, and after I talk to the sect elders, I will go to the battlefield to create my weapon."

Oswald agreed, preparing to leave with Minos and take him to the high-level elders to make his presentation.

Gloria, Ruth, and Abby were pleased to see that they had an alternative, not taking the time to relax in that place, following Sarah and Patience.

...

At the same time as Minos was accompanying Oswald, Lance had already received news of his enemy's arrival at the headquarters of this sect.

'What the hell is this bastard doing here? Just when my mercenaries should be arriving in that damned territory, he comes here?' That blond man thought to himself as he was eating in the dining room of a residence, together with some mid-level Spiritual Saints.

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 'Young master, what shall we do? Minos may be plotting against our interests within the sect." One of those men said this, concerned about the information that had just reached them.

"It's true. That fellow cannot be underestimated. He has faced many challenges on his way here, so we have to be careful with him." Another person said, thinking that they should take a few steps back in their plans.

Another then said. "I believe that the young master should use his influence to pressure the sect to reject Minos Stuart from the possibility of sitting in the sect leader's chair. Even if the elders don't choose you immediately, that would already be a great advance for our group."

After hearing some of the comments, doubts, and questions from his supporters, Lance said. "It's a shame he came here at this time, but it's true, he's dangerous. So let's use what we have in the sect to stop his action around here."

"I bet he's here to get some kind of help from the sect, so maybe this is the best time for us to use our faction's strength and influence."

The individuals in that place were satisfied with this since it was very troublesome to keep creating contacts and not be able to use them to solve their problems quickly.

But in this situation where they were cornered by Minos' presence, using this could be the answer they needed before Lance was chosen the heir to the sect master's position!

Considering that the Terry family had been essential in the war against the Saints Killing Sect, they had a lot of support from the elders to start this attempt!

...

After some time, the most important elders of the Gray Clouds Sect answered Oswald's call. They went to the place where the most important decisions of this organization were made.

When they arrived in the large hall where Minos had met them earlier, those old experts looked with interest at this young man, more or less understanding that this call had to do with him.

One of them saw this and was the first to question it. "Sect Master, what's going on? Is Minos, by any chance, here to ask for more help?"

They knew about the situation in the Black Plain Empire. After all, they had allowed three Spiritual Saints to go to that state to help Minos.

When that man noticed the severe expression on Minos' face, he immediately thought that things in the Black Plain were terrible, and this young man wanted more help.

Oswald then answered such a person while others sat on the outskirts. "Not exactly... We are here to communicate about my replacement."

After those words were said, all the people there narrowed their eyes and frowned, clearly understanding what Oswald wanted to tell them.

But they remained silent to hear the sect master speak. "I want to appoint Minos as my successor, who should replace me as sect master immediately. I will advise him for three years and then abandon the position I have had up to this point."

"What?"

"How can that be?"

"Why?" Those individuals asked as they rose from their seats, shocked at Oswald's sudden decision, considering that Minos was still too weak for that position.

Among those individuals, the most indignant was the patriarch of House Terry. He no longer counted on Minos getting involved in this matter after years of this young man on the Black Plain not coming to bother his family's intentions.

So hearing this now, that man could not be at peace. "That's nonsense, sect master. How can he replace you right away? I would understand if you were appointing him to replace you in the future, but now it is simply too soon!"

"If that happens, not only will our reputation be tarnished throughout the empire. But, in addition, we will risk being destroyed because of this person's weakness."

"He's not capable of leading us!"
