Crossing the wormhole created by Umuss, Minos came upon a place Henricus Longus had passed through, but not only that, an area where the level 100 dragon he had recently inherited had spent much of his life.
That was the dragons' territory, one of the strongest tribes in the world, home to some of the most powerful level 99 Demigods of the era!
Arriving there, Minos closed his eyes and felt the spiritual fluctuations of the surroundings, ignoring the many floating islands in this area of the northernmost part of the Continent of Beasts.
That was the most spiritually rich area of the entire continent. Not only that, but it was the home of not only dragons but also the strongest beings that were subordinate to them.
Therefore, every being there, even the lowly ones, would have powerful auras over their bodies because their potential was enormous.
Even the plants in the area were different from what one would find in an 'ordinary' high-level place.
If one were to look for better places than this in the entire Spiritual World, one would only find Elven Island, a part of the Sea Folk's submerged territory, and a small area on the Divine Continent.
There was nowhere on the Central Continent that even came close to this area!
Even though he wasn't there for a walk, Minos couldn't help but smile as he felt the difference between being there and seeing the memories of others who had once walked these lands.
"No wonder you're so powerful. Cultivating in a place like this, reaching the pinnacle is only a matter of time." He muttered, attracting the attention of the level 94 dragon.
"Do you know my tribe?"
"I've never been here before. But it's not difficult to recognize it. After all, I got my aura from a dragon."
Hearing that answer, Umuss wasn't surprised. "So it was an inheritance..."
"Yes. I found an heirloom left by a level 100 dragon in the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom." Minos said casually, knowing his chances in this place would exponentially decrease if he lied to that creature.
"What?"
Even though he had expected Minos to have gotten something like that from an inheritance, Umuss hadn't expected that such an inheritance would actually be that of a God, let alone one in the ancient Spatial Kingdom of his people.
"Are you serious? Why do we have no news of an inheritance in this space?" He looked at Minos more seriously, not understanding how something so relevant to his people could have gone unnoticed by his tribe.
They knew about a place where dragon bodies were and could be of great value to beings of this and other races who went there and used the opportunity to cultivate or absorb the power of those older bodies. However, they did not know about the legacy in the unstable pocket that had a large lake. To them, it was just an area to encourage beings to become stronger.
"I don't know. But there was a level 100 heirloom hidden in a place where various high-level weapons were left for members of their tribe to try to conquer. I managed to remove a weapon that was there, and that showed my compatibility with the heirloom... Anyway, that's how I got this aura and such a strong body for my level." Minos said, answering some of Umuss' questions at the same time.
"Is that why you know about the Ancestral God of my race?" Umuss didn't doubt Minos' words.
According to the information he had from the elders of his tribe who had managed to reach level 100, there were at least three of them whom no one knew where or if they had left any heirlooms.
One of them was the 4th Divine Dragon, the one Minos had received his last legacy from.
But he was curious why such a prominent member of his race would give the truth of his people to a human.
Even if Minos had received his inheritance from this individual, it didn't mean he had become a dragon or a friend of dragons. It would be risky, to tell the truth about them to someone like that, who might one day decide to go to the tribe and cause chaos in order to profit from their wealth.
So Minos responded not only with words but by showing the dragon some of the chaotic energy in his body. "Yes, he told me about it. In fact, he showed me his memories, and I saw where he said the Ancestral God of dragons helped him as he advanced to level 100.
He advised me to come to his tribe one day and challenge his people to gain access to such a place." Minos laughed.
Meanwhile, Umuss looked at Minos with narrowed eyes, already in his dragon form. He couldn't help but be frightened when he sensed the chaos hidden in the small human's body.
'He has the same energy as some of the tribe's leaders.' He thought, feeling a little inferior to Minos, even though he ignored the dragon aura of the young human in front of him.
Every dragon had such a chaotic energy within them. But only elders near the peak reached such a density of chaos in their beings. However, Minos, at level 84, had already achieved this feat.
"What are you?" He asked. "Not even the level 99 elders of your race have this energy in such density in their bodies!"
Minos bitterly smiled when he heard this. "I am just a human with an innate ability that is compatible with it. I'm not that different from you dragons. Anyway, that's exactly why I got the recognition of your ancestor, Senior Umuss.
As for challenging your people, I do not intend to do so. I'm just passing through on my way to escape the Gorgons. I intend to go to the Divine Continent for a meeting in the Pantheon of Honor. After that, I intend to continue my journey to the North Sea."
"Pantheon of Honor?" Umuss was familiar with this high-ranking organization and was naturally surprised to learn that Minos was related to it.
"Yes, I'm an active member of it." He said, showing his card up his sleeve to dissuade the dragon from doing anything dangerous to him.
Minos knew he couldn't lie because that creature would know, and that could provoke an action, something that could put an end to all his plans. But telling the truth was also dangerous, so he had included this critical piece of information so Umuss would know he wasn't some bum who wouldn't be missed.
He had powerful friends!
