The Rise of the Black Plain

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Charles desperately cried as he saw what had just happened, realizing his world collapsing as his mother's head stopped right in front of him with her eyes still open.

After seeing his mother's black eyes, now totally still, Charles felt an ache in his heart, even worse than when Minos had destroyed his cultivation.

And watching her in despair, he could not help but crawl to her, as if he could still say something to her or indicate that she should not worry about him.

But once her head had been decapitated, it was already impossible for that woman to perceive her surroundings in any way.

She was completely dead!

In certain situations, depending on how the death happened, some tissues could take longer to die. And because of this, in some places in the Spiritual World, people believed that they could still pass on their last messages to the dead immediately after death.

That could happen, but only to the dead who had not had any of their brain tissue, hearing tissue, or visual tissue compromised.

But in her case, Charles' mother had lost the entire supply of gases necessary for the functioning of her tissues, something that had quickly dripped down the base of her neck.

Without such a thing that perhaps could give her the ability to see or hear anything more before her eternal sleep, that woman's consciousness had vanished after Minos' move!

"Mom..." He said this amid his lament in a way that the people there could barely understand what he was saying.

But it did not matter. After all, every one of those people was pale with fear, fearing that they would be the next to fall in front of Minos.

Earlier, he had not even moved, and two mighty Spiritual Kings had died. But the death of Charles' mother was incomparable to those two since the bloody effect brought far more fear to those people.

Hence, they were one degree more fearful of facing the devil among them!

As for Minos, he had no sympathy for Charles, and it did not take long to press on that person's 'wound.' 

"Tsk!"

"Your mother had more balls than you, worm!"

"She at least dared to die for you..."

"But you, worm, you had run away from me years ago, not having had the balls to face the consequences of your actions."

Minos then took that head by the hair and showed it to Charles. "Look at this, worm!"

"You brought this not only to you but to your whole family!"

"And it's not over yet!" 

Gulp!

"Minos..." Wilfred said in a low voice, fearing that his mother would be next if he did not accept this enemy's conditions. "Minos..."

"I... I will do what you said."

"I promise, as Blake has already promised, not to stand in your way and obey your orders. But..."

"But please don't do anything to my mother!"

"Please!" 

Upon hearing this, some of those women there were quick to prevent Minos from saying anything, promptly kneeling on the ground in tears, begging for their lives.

"Please don't kill me! I will be useful to you..."

"I will do anything you say. I will even sleep with you!" One of the strongest there said this in fear, feeling that she had to show something of value so that Minos would not kill her.

"I can do the same! Then please let me live! Please, Mister Stuart!"

'Hmm, that makes it easier!' Minos was pleased to notice the change in those people.

He had noticed earlier that they were afraid of him, but they still exhibited hopeful behavior. Then, because of this, he killed Charles' mother so brutally!

That had been mainly to motivate the fear of these people!

And seeing that he had succeeded, Minos was satisfied, relieved that his affairs here were almost over.

'Well, now there's only one thing left...' He pondered about it as he felt some powerful spiritual fluctuations coming to this place.

Many people guarded the king's residence. And by breaking into this place, he had killed some of the strongest people on his way here and activated his techniques several times in sequence.

Consequently, it was expected that the people in this royal palace would notice his presence and send troops to deal with the situation.

And sensing the strongest people in this palace coming towards him, Minos was already preparing himself to receive them, to finish his business around here.

"Well, I will seal your cultivation later and take you as a guarantee that Blake and Wilfred will keep their promises..."

"That is, your lives depend on these two!" He said, looking at them as he pointed at those two.

"If they do not do as promised, I will first kill you and then return to this kingdom to finish off the Walker family!"

Gulp!

Wilfred swallowed his saliva and took a deep breath. "Don't worry, mother. I will do everything in my power to obey the orders of the Black Plain!"

As for the other women there, except for Blake's mother, they could only pray that those two would not kill them...

But at least the mothers of the two would be with them in this situation!

And after a few seconds of silence, Minos finally suggested something to those people. "Well, now you should back off a bit..."

"Some living corpses are coming here to fulfill their destinies." He said in good humor, sensing the fluctuations of the 15 strongest warriors of this palace.

And just as he finished speaking, those people appeared on the outskirts of that residence, some jumping through the windows, others passing by the place where Minos had thrown Charles earlier.

Seeing this, young Stuart remained in the same position as before, quiet, as if these people were no great concern to him.

"Old man, there's no need to hide. I know you are here..." Minos ignored those in front of him as he spoke to the Walker family ancestor. "Once your family narrowly survived the rebels of the Kain family..."

"Unfortunately, I am not a Kain, and today your family will finally lose to a rebel!"

"Are you prepared to die, old man?" Minos asked in a harsh tone, trying to hurt his opponent psychologically.

Minos did not know that individual. But he knew that this regent of the Kingdom of the Waves was the one who had given the orders for the families of this state to fight against the Black Plain.

Hence, the young ruler had no problem speaking that way to this enemy who had already been indirectly responsible for thousands of deaths on the Black Plain!

"You are truly a pest, devil!" A hoarse voice resounded through that place as that person appeared alongside three other individuals.

As for the rest of those Spiritual Kings, most at level 56, some at level 57, were scattered around that area where Minos and those people from before were.

"Since you want to destroy our family, we can do it ourselves and take you with us!" 

"Oh?" Minos was surprised about that. "Do you want to sacrifice yourselves?" He asked, smiling. "Are you sure about that?"

Minos then pointed at those two princes. "You guys don't mind killing all the royal descendants?"

"Humph!"

"If it's to stop the family from being degraded by someone of your kind, we will make all possible sacrifices!"

"The family will find a way to continue without us!" The old ancestor said this just before nodding in the direction of his companions, prepared to do what was necessary.

"Even you can't stop so many of us, devil!" Another individual said this while circulating his energies in a unique pattern, preparing to sacrifice himself.

As for the women in that place, they were once again trembling with fear, losing their hopes for survival.

"We'll see!" Minos said, finally beginning to circulate his energies to the maximum, as he had never done since he had increased his level.

'In a second, who will be faster? You? Or me?' 

Devouring Art!

Indestructible Body!

Explosive Steps!

Infinite Dream!

Spatial Sword!

Then, he activated each of his techniques, causing all the people in that place to come under its effects, losing their energy to him and their bodies quickly began to feel a specific spatial restriction.
