The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 420: Feelings

"Ahh~" The young woman shivered vigorously and then fell into Minos' arms, with a satisfied look on her face.

"I…" After hearing such a comment, Minos was saying something but was suddenly interrupted by his companion.

"Hah... You don't need to tell me anything right now. I can wait." She said confidently simultaneously as she tried to recover from the intense activity they had just finished.

After what happened, Abby had made the decision not to hold back on her involvement with Minos. If she was in love with him, then this young woman was willing to go ahead with it, making that thing clear to him.

And even if he didn't feel the same way, she was still determined that talking about her feelings to him would still be the best alternative. She didn't want to live like a person who regrets, especially when the two of them get along so well and she has so many opportunities to talk about it with him.

It would be great for her if Minos felt the same way she did. Still, even if he didn't feel that way now or in the future, as long as he accepted her feelings, she was already determined to give herself to him.

Abby knew that people bonded for pure convenience on many occasions, without the need for feelings or significant complications... After all, it was tough for two people to start getting involved only after feelings had arisen.

That is because such feelings would not appear overnight and would only develop after many experiences. An example of this was Minos and Abby's relationship that, at first, there was no such feeling between the two.

And that was usually how most couples were formed in the Spiritual World.

People bonded because of attraction, interests, convenience, and many other reasons. But some couples got to know each other better while doing this, sometimes developing deeper feelings for each other.

So, Abby was willing to wait for him. She felt confident that one day the feeling would be mutual.

Before, she didn't want to do this, but with the 'encouragement' of that incident, now she was willing to take a little more risk with Minos.

She truly wanted to hear an 'I love you' coming from Minos, but she wasn't in a hurry, nor did she want him to lie to her!

Finally, hearing his companion's sweet voice, Minos smiled at her as he ran his fingers through her hair and stood silently watching her. 'So, you fell in love with me…'

'I don't know if I feel the same way, but you're certainly important to me…' He thought to himself, remembering the pain he'd felt at the thought of what he'd do if she'd died.

He had felt empty at that moment...

Eventually, after a while, the two of them fell asleep in that room, still hugging each other, sweaty and covered with each other's fluids.

...

Time passed, and soon the couple had already woken up and taken a long shower.

And during that moment, the two had talked about what had happened in those two days since the previous incident.

Minos told Abby everything he had discovered about that situation, the conflict between the two younger princes of the Kingdom of the Waves and the result of that battle.

And naturally, Abby had been shocked to discover that they had been involved in such a problem.

Of course, such a thing was not impossible to happen. Still, they were traveling with no interest in the matter, so peacefully...

Yet, they had been involved in such a problem.

She had also been disappointed to learn that Charles had managed to escape, even after all of his men had been killed. But there was nothing to be done. Abby clearly understood how strong Minos was, so if the third prince had managed to escape, that meant he had excellent means and support!

And despite all Minos' strength, he wasn't invincible. If the other side had a teleportation device, it would be hard for her young lover to kill that person.

At the very least, Abby was aware that Minos had done his best to deal with the scum that had tried to kill her.

Minos had also tranquilized her about the condition of Ebba, who had survived by hiding during that battle.

Finally, he spoke about the reason he hadn't come here before, instead of waiting two days to do such a thing. And it wasn't a hard thing to understand. After all, as much as this young woman didn't know much about Spatial Kingdoms, she did know how teleportation artifacts worked.

Items of this type had limitations as to at least either going or coming back.

After Minos told her about what he had done these two days, Abby told him how it had been these days she was in this place.

At first, Minos' girlfriend had been very shocked by this place, not having believed Emlyn when this fox talked about the medicines growing in this Spatial Kingdom.

But after a full day in this sanctuary, Abby had realized how shocking this place was, as even the lowest-ranked medicines in this place had more energy than she could sense!

And in talking to Emlyn about a lot of things she didn't know about Spatial Kingdoms, Abby had been thrilled to find that Minos had such a place to support himself!

Finally, she had understood why he was taking such a risk by investing in the Black Plain!

If all went wrong, he could just take what interested him in that region, the people he trusted, and then flee here...

On the other hand, with the support of such a place, he could easily enrich that region, having the best place to strengthen his subordinates and many essential resources for the future.

At the very least, it would not be an impossible task for him to stand out in the northern region of the Central Continent!

That's because what mattered for an organization to succeed were the numbers and the average strength of these people. And with the means to quickly strengthen his soldiers, Minos had a considerable advantage against the regional powers, who had to suffer to improve their forces!

Anyway, Abby didn't know everything about this place nor concerning Minos. After all, not even Emlyn knew about these things. And this young man hadn't said much more than he should have to her, had simply said that he had received an inheritance during the time he had been unconscious.

Minos didn't want to worry Abby about the minor details about this matter, like the entire contents of the inheritance he'd received and the fact that there was an outside threat. That's because he thought that for certain things, it was better to be ignorant, so he hadn't even told Dillian about it.

As for the Golden-grade techniques, he would have to see if his relationship with Abby would continue to evolve. If they became husband and wife one day, and he was genuinely in love with her, he would talk about it all and teach her the techniques of this classification.

But before that happens, it wouldn't be enough for him to know she's in love with him.

It had to be something coming from Minos and not Abby for him to share all his worries with her.

He had allowed Dillian to learn the Golden-grade techniques compatible with this man's expertise because of Minos' deep trust in the butler.

This young man saw that man as a grandfather, someone he respected many times more than his own mother.

As for Abby, she was on the way, but she hadn't reached that point yet.

He needed more time to decide on that!

But it wouldn't make much difference. After all, Abby was still only at level 44, and it would take her more than three years to reach level 50. So, with that, it wouldn't be too late, nor even harmful, for her to learn these higher classification techniques in the future!

Any damage caused by this would be minimal, and young Stuart would be sure of his decision!

After that, Minos and Abby stayed in the Spatial Kingdom for a while longer, talking to Emlyn about some things. Then, finally, the two returned to that city where he had previously left, from where they could continue traveling...
