Chapter 1180 Asking for Information
"It looks like someone wants to turn into a roast chicken," Minos commented as he noticed the angry look of that creature.
Upon hearing that, the great eagle was not slow to notice Gloria's spiritual fluctuation, realizing that this person was stronger than it could handle.
With that, it lowered its tone while making those two snakes move away from its body. "I'm sorry for involving you in my battle. I will take my leave..."
As that beast tried to leave and the two snakes struggled in pain from their injuries, Minos used his seventh technique to stop that being from escaping.
"Wait!"
"Do you think you can attack others with your powers and leave like that without any punishment?" Minos asked loudly, surprising that creature.
Battles like the one there were regular not only in this area but all over the Central Continent and Spiritual World.
Beasts everywhere lived fighting natural predators, fighting for revenge, and plots similar to those of humans, as in the example of territorial disputes.
As such, it was not strange for travelers to encounter situations like the one in question, where a third party ended up being involved in the problems of the other two.
But even if this were a routine situation, Minos would not simply accept that a third party attacked him and his group and then left as if nothing had happened.
What if he was not strong enough?
Well, he would have been seriously injured, maybe even killed by the remnants of those beings' battle!
Because of this, he could not just let the matter end there as if nothing had happened!
The great eagle looked fiercely at Minos but did not expound its thoughts. "What do you want? We were just fighting. I didn't want to get you involved in this." It looked at the man and then the red-headed woman, who probably was the leader of this group of humans.
At the same time, the two snakes rose from the rubble and looked in Minos' direction in doubt as to whether or not they could leave.
Minos looked at those two beings who would probably die in the claws of this eagle and decided to give them a chance.
"Go away." He waved one of his hands. "I believe the strongest should take responsibility for problems like these."
Seeing Minos' gaze in its direction, the great eagle clenched its beak tightly, annoyed at this human.
But the two snakes quickly did what Minos had said, a little upset that they could not fight this eagle that had killed their brother.
However, as beings with good instincts, they knew that they had escaped death and that it was better not to anger those humans.
So, as those two creatures disappeared from that area, Minos looked at that great bird and said. "Since your battle has caused us trouble, it is up to you to give us some compensation."
"What do you want?"
"Not much. For starters, we are not from Vogel, so we would appreciate the help of a guide to facilitate our tourism trip..." He smiled as he saw Ruth and Gloria looking at him.
"You are not from Vogel? And where are you from?" It looked at Gloria.
Before that redhead could answer, Minos lied. "Divine Continent."
"What? Are you serious?" The great black and white eagle shivered in fear, not doubting that this was true since a mere level 61 cultivator had prevented it from escaping.
"Sure, do I happen to have the face of a liar?" Minos said as Ruth closed her eyes and struggled not to laugh.
The eagle looked back at Gloria and no longer dared question it. It was likely that they were from that legendary continent, where Spiritual demigods were as common as Spiritual Saints in Vogel!
In this case, to avoid trouble, it said. "So, you are visitors coming from the Divine Continent. It's not for nothing that your auras are so noble..."
"Well, I would be flattered to tell you a little about my homeland and even show you the area if you choose."
Minos showed one of his hands to that individual, indicating for him not to get worked up. "We just want to hear some relevant information to avoid trouble... We don't want your company."
The great eagle was not offended by the end of Minos' speech. The opposite of that, it felt relieved, as it did not want to be around dangerous people like these.
'The weakest of those humans have this terrifying power, and there is even a beast with a stronger lineage than mine among them...' It looked at Kyla, not knowing what race this beautiful creature belonged to.
All it felt was a sense of oppression coming from that fox, while at the same time, it was highly attracted to its charm.
Gulp!
'It is lovely!' It blinked at Kyla without realizing it.
But then it shook its head and turned its focus back to the main subject. 'Anyway, they're not simple, and I'd better keep my distance as much as possible!'
"All right, I can talk about the area we are in and a bit of the human part of Vogel..." It said in a clear tone. "I'm not someone who gets involved with humans much, but I know the basics that can help you avoid trouble or reap benefits."
Minos' group did not know much about the neighboring kingdoms in the northern region. They even had some idea of the main strength of each of these states and the average power of the leaders, but they did not know the details.
For example, the area they were in was dominated by whom? What kind of problems might they have while traveling on the path they had planned?
They had some information, but these things could not be compared with what a native of the area knew. Hence, Minos used this opportunity to get better information from this creature.
Ruth and Gloria only knew detailed things about the Flaming Empire, and since the Church branches of those states and that empire were not so close, their trip would not be easy if they relied only on the contacts of this redhead.
Ruth then asked. "Who owns this area we are in? We will have more problems if we follow this path..." She gave some directions to that being.
"This area is nobody's, but there are several groups of beasts that constantly fight around here." It answered. "Some groups of beasts will try to cause trouble for you if you continue on this path."
"Unless, of course, you demonstrate that you are not worth approaching."
"What is the level of these problems?" Minos asked while having his arms crossed at chest height.
"My level, more or less." The creature replied as it looked away.
"Hmm, that won't be bad then. If they seek trouble with us, we will simply treat them a little rudely." Minos smiled. "What about the city nearby? Is there anything special about that place? Any recurring problems?"
"The nearest city is the first one with royal family posts in this state due to its proximity to the capital. So, the main point of that place is the royal family forces."
"As for special things, there is only one. This place is particularly famous because of stimulating plants that grow around here." He looked strangely at Minos. "That makes quite a hit among you humans."
