Chapter 1206 Shocked!
While more than 30 Spiritual Saints were on alert with the changes happening in the surroundings due to the black hole, little by little, the region devoid of light began to become transparent.
With that, it did not take long for the experts and Spiritual Emperors in the area to notice the large crater that had formed in that place, where they had no idea what was there before.
They saw a big black dot in that place, and everything that leaned against it was sucked in. But strangely enough, at first, from the previous Spiritual Saint’s comments, such a thing was not material.
So they had many doubts about what was in that region of space, and when it started to disappear, they opened their mouths in surprise to see an empty place.
Only the contours of the ground close to the event horizon were there to ‘tell’ the story, forming a large crater with a ring shape.
However, as the skies in the surroundings cleared up again and the lightning on the horizon disappeared, the people there began to pay attention to the sky, where a person was floating at this instant.
“What? Was there someone there?”
“How could that be? We all saw how terrible that thing was!”
Voices arose among several Spiritual Emperors and Saints, all shocked by this development of events.
But one of the Church members then noticed the mask on the face of that person dressed in golden armor. “That person…”
Abe’s eyes widened at seeing Minos there, even more so considering that by now, he knew that his subordinate had been the one who had sacrificed himself!
‘It can’t be!’
‘How did he survive? How?’ He almost felt like hitting his head on the ground to try to understand the reality, but he restrained himself and avoided giving suspicious signals to the people in the area.
His subordinates were also shocked, their mouths hanging open at the sight of that person.
As for King Vogel, he remembered that fellow at his party days ago but put his shock aside to pay attention to the sphere that Minos was manipulating.
The young man dressed in golden armor had just put the singularity of his black hole inside that thing and was using parts of his energy to control it.
Abby’s improvised device was not as good as the array he had used with the previous black hole. So, it was giving him a bit of work.
However, he was okay with that…
“Hey, you!” One of the royal guards shouted in Minos’ direction, but no one approached this young man, still afraid of the black hole.
“You! Identify yourself right now! Tell us what happened here and turn this thing over to us!”Then, several soldiers raised their weapons against Minos, preparing to act on the command of the person who was saying this.
The King approved the words of his soldier and continued to watch in Minos’ direction with a terrible expression, angry at what had happened here but still cautious. Not only because of the black hole that such a person had magically controlled but also because of the Spiritual Church.
Anyway, Minos watched the people looking at him with unfriendly expressions and focused his attention on the groups of the King and the Church.
He saw that Abe had already disappeared from the area, but he was not bothered by this. “I will not surrender, nor will I identify myself. I am not part of the jurisdiction of this state, so its laws do not apply to me.” He said in a tone devoid of fear or reverence.
“Plus, I’m afraid I’ve saved hundreds of thousands of people with my action. So, I guess the least I deserve is a fucking thank you.”
Many of the Spiritual Saints there looked at this level 61 Spiritual Emperor with wide eyes, not believing the arrogance of such a person.
‘He has his methods for controlling that, I admit it… But he’s too full of himself!’ Someone thought about it in silence.
“Should we thank you?” The King asked in an irritated tone.
Minos nodded in agreement. “A Spiritual Saint sacrificed himself here. If I had not acted, his action would have killed hundreds of thousands.”
“Oh? And your action didn’t kill many people anyway? And who said we needed your ‘help’? We would have had fewer casualties if we had acted alone!” A general of the royal guard shouted at Minos.
Minos smiled from under his mask, letting some of the sounds of his laughter escape for the people there to hear him. “Well, anyway, it’s not my fault what happened here. I just defended myself. So, I won’t take any responsibility.”
“Do you think you are in the position to speak here?” The King asked as he began to move toward Minos.
Minos then looked at the Church group and said as he looked back at the King. “I have things to report to my friends of the Church, and some of that information is critical… Then we can send a report from me to your group another time, so we don’t delay it.”
The Church members grew more serious upon hearing Minos’ tone, but they still did not know which side to take.
“Humph!”
“You can talk to the Church after being questioned by my group! There is no talking here. If you don’t come with us…”
King Vogel was about to make his threat, but Minos released his murderous intent and said in an icy tone. “If you insist on this path, I will use what is in my hands.”
Gulp!
Many trembled just by feeling Minos’ killing intent, admiring the terrible background this person seemed to have.
‘Incredible!’
‘This fellow must be a killing machine! No wonder he’s valued by the Church!’
Several people also swallowed their saliva of nervousness after they looked in the direction of the sphere that was in Minos’ hands.
As they paid more attention to it, some of them soon felt drops of sweat dripping down their bodies.
‘The energy of that thing is increasing as we speak…’ The leader of the local Church post thought about this as her eyes narrowed. ‘What’s going on? How can he control something so sinister? And why does that thing seem to be getting stronger?’
On the other hand, the King stopped his movement and clenched his fists. “Are you threatening me? Do you truly think I’m like…”
Minos interrupted the King’s speech once again and said. “If you think the sacrifice of someone at level 70 is bad, the weapon I have in my hands is ten times worse. If I use it, I fear that no one in this city, not even my friends of the Church, will survive…”
Hearing that, the members of the local Spiritual Church post felt they must act, or terrible things might happen!
So, while everyone in the surrounding area felt anxious, the three most influential people from the local Church post flew to the vicinity of King Vogel.
“Your Majesty, let us talk to him first. We are sure Pyke has a good justification and is just nervous after this situation.” The white-haired woman commented while having an apologetic smile on her face.
The other two also said a few words to calm the King down and resolve the situation as peacefully as possible.
Seeing this, Minos felt slightly better, but he was also sorry. ‘Sigh… That fellow knows what I know, so he’ll run away and probably alert his family.’
‘It would have been easier if those people had attacked me…’ He thought, considering that he did not want to have to use the Black Hole Bomb on his hands in this city without being threatened.
Millions of innocent people would die, so he did not want to use it casually. But it was also a shame that it meant he would have to give his enemies a chance for them to escape!
