The Rise of the Black Plain

After talking with Dillian and Eda for a while, Maisie learned a bit about her granddaughter's situation and that Minos and his family were returning to Dry City from where the birth had taken place.

Maisie still did not know about the Spatial Kingdom. So Dillian had to make up an excuse for this woman to accept that she would have to wait for Minos and his family to return for her to meet Sarah.

But since she had waited years for this day, she did not see a problem waiting a few hours. So, after hearing everything Dillian had to say about Sarah, she soon settled into that residence.

Sarah was a very healthy baby with eyes just like her father's, but she would probably have hair just like her mother's.

With descriptions like that, Maisie had already made a mental picture of her granddaughter and was looking forward to feeding little Sarah as soon as possible.

She wanted to give all her love to her granddaughter!

...

Hours after Maisie arrived in Dry City, Minos and his family returned from the Spatial Kingdom, leaving only the beasts and soldiers of the Black Plain Army in that place.

Sarah returned with them since the teleportation from the Spatial Kingdom was not dangerous for children.

With that, when they left the army headquarters, it was not long before Maisie realized they had returned and did not even wait for them to reach the royal palace.

In the middle of the street, in the square in front of the palace, this woman spotted her son's family, the three women and he walking side by side, with Sarah in Gloria's arms.

She smiled as she saw the baby sleeping and asked. "Gloria, can I hold her? I've been waiting for this moment for years."

Minos saw this woman but was not angry that she was there, seeing no problem with his mother wanting to be close to Sarah.

Gloria noticed this and handed her daughter over to Maisie, who promptly filled that baby with love.

At the same time, several people in the surrounding area were looking curiously in their direction, knowing that this must be the first princess of the Black Plain.

But since this was a controlled area, where only special people or people with strong connections to the local forces could access, no commotion formed there.

People merely stopped what they were doing to watch Sarah in the arms of that level 72 woman, smiling for no reason.

But a group walking by was a little surprised by that.

"Isn't that Gloria? She finally reached level 70..." Warner commented as he remembered that this woman he had chased in the past was pregnant with Minos.

He saw the baby in Maisie's arms and understood everything, 'So that's their daughter... That's why there were so many celebrations in this place when we arrived earlier!'

He and his group watched that family for a few moments until one of them approached and said in a low voice. "Your Majesty, we are here on behalf of the Emperor."

Minos finally stopped paying attention to Maisie and Sarah and looked in the direction of those people he knew from long ago.

People from the Flaming Empire or the four kingdoms would come to this city to talk to him and deal with their problems from time to time.

In the case of the envoys from this Empire, on some occasions, Isabella was the one who attended, coming not only for business but to pursue her goals with Minos.

Fortunately or unfortunately, she had not gotten pregnant even though she wanted to very much...

On the other hand, his relationship with her and his women with her significantly improved and was no longer awkward. pan(da-n0vel.c)om

But she could not always leave the Empire to come to the Black Plain, so now and then, people like Warner and his group came to talk to Minos on behalf of the Emperor.

"What do you want?" Minos asked as he looked at Warner, knowing that these people would not seek him out in the middle of the night if it were not something relevant.

Warner first congratulated him before talking about something more serious. "Congratulations on the birth of your daughter, Your Majesty."

"Hmmm."

"But we are here to give you an alert of a strange situation identified recently."

"A strange situation?" Minos' wives looked at that man and repeated such a question, obviously concerned.

"Yes, we have recently noticed a strange movement on the border side of the Empire with the four kingdoms to our north." He said in a low voice. "Some strange things have been happening in branches of the Spiritual Church in the vicinity of that route through these areas..."

"We think they are coming toward the northern region, so we are here to warn you."

"What does that mean?" Gloria asked, not knowing any information about incidents involving branches of the Church.

Warner then asked them to talk about it in a more private place, and soon they all set off toward the royal palace.

Maisie continued with Sarah in her arms, not paying much attention to her son's affairs. But, at the same time, everyone else focused on the subject as soon as they sat in a negotiating area.

"Well? Will you give me more details about this? I do not understand what's going on." Minos said as he got a serious expression, hoping to find out what this was all about.

Warnes sighed and said. "Well, some mysterious group started attacks against branches of the Spiritual Church months ago. That started on the Empire's border with one of the high-level kingdoms of the western region."

"In that place, a rebel organization started a movement of violent protests against the Church's actions in Albano and Vogel in recent history, calling for justice for those unjustly killed."

"Months later, we realized that the attacked branches of the Church left that small region, and situations began to arise in various locations on our continent. Unfortunately, that is the case with our border with these four kingdoms."

"Due to the path drawn from the attacked Church outposts, I feel that the enemy is coming to the northern region and may cause trouble for you soon."

Minos and his wives were surprised by this, especially Gloria since she had not received any updates regarding this.

However, she did not know that her mother had prevented her from knowing this information because of her pregnancy.

On the other hand, the allies they had made in Church posts on the previous trip were not influential individuals yet. So since few individuals knew about these attacks so far, this information had not reached them through such individuals.

Minos thought about it and asked. "Do you think they are coming in search of me because I am related to these situations in Albano and Vogel?"

"Yes, we think so," Warner said, the main reason the Emperor had sent them to speak to King Stuart.

Hearing that, his three wives looked at him, and each tried to think about why that was now and the problem they would possibly have to face.

"Well, thank you for informing us about this problem," Minos said sincerely. "We will do our best to deal with these enemies if they come to the Black Plain!" 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝑡
