The Rise of the Black Plain

'Huh? An inheritance?' Minos was surprised to hear this as he looked at the dragon's body next to him while still holding the axe over his body as if he had been frozen that way. 'Your test was to take the weapon from where it was?'

'Wrong!' A voice rose in Minos' heart. 'This weapon was left in this area by one of my descendants. The real test was to show your essence and your compatibility with me.

Taking the weapon from where it was would not in itself entitle you to my inheritance. But you, young human, demonstrated something that reminded me of myself.'

Minos looked into the creature's eyes and sensed that it was related to the energy he had acquired over the years by stealing the powers of the giant bones in the Spatial Kingdom.

'It seems that high-level beasts really do have more in common with those prehistoric creatures than we humans do.' Minos no longer had doubts and understood why some races of the Spiritual World, such as dragons, were so strong.

Not even Henricus Longus had realized the connection between these mighty beasts and the ancient giant skeletons scattered worldwide. To this ancient God, the world simply had more and less powerful beings. For him, that was nature, chance.

But Minos saw it differently after knowing and feeling things that Henricus Longus had never had the chance to do!

He clenched his fists over the weapon above his body and looked at one of his hands. 'Anyway, you continue to help me. Thank you for your support so far, Elder Longus.'

Minos realized that the level 100 dragon remnant itself had helped him lift this grade-4 weapon. But the ring of the Spatial Kingdom had also done that.

Knowing that this ring had already prevented several beings from prying into his fate and even helped him in other situations, Minos could not help but thank the guy who had left several helpful inscriptions on such a ring for this thing that helped him on his journey.

As for why the dragon had helped him, it was simply a gift for his heir, who had shown compatibility with him. But this weapon had nothing to do with that inheritance, and soon, the level 100 dragon announced.

"Young Sage, choose a person to share the inheritance with you. Unfortunately, you are still too weak and do not have enough to carry my wealth." The dragon said this for all to hear, doubly surprising the group watching in shock.

'Besides, you already have another colleague's inheritance in you... I can't leave too much of my power in your body for you to absorb in the future.' The creature said only to Minos, lamenting that another had already chosen this genius.

Even the Goddess of Life could sense the presence of Henricus Longus' legacy in Minos, so it had been much easier for this dragon remnant to realize the same.

Minos' soul was clearly too pure to be something natural. He had undoubtedly received an inheritance that had qualitatively evolved this essence of himself!

Moreover, the dragon could see that the powers of another God were sealed in this body!

'God of Time, huh?' The level 100 dragon thought to himself as he saw a golden glow on Minos' left chest, with a mark of 'Time' there, something he had heard of in his time.

'It looks like you're watching this young man's journey... Are you having fun, God of Time? Or are you busy?' The dragon's eyes narrowed, but he didn't delve too deeply into his analysis, lest his own plans be disrupted.

'Sigh, you have chosen your heir. It's time for me to earn mine! '

Minos said. "Ruth, come with me. You will go through this inheritance with me. "

Minos knew very well how inheritance worked. After all, he had dealt with three of them in his lifetime, and he had seen several others in the memories of Henricus Longus.

Regardless of what they gave their heirs, the experts always used their soul fragments to help qualitatively evolve their heirs' souls. Only then could they truly help these people approach level 100, their destiny.

Knowing that Ruth was the least talented of his wives, Minos chose her without hesitation.

"Me?" The beautiful black-haired woman asked, feeling a little embarrassed to be chosen instead of the others.

But her harem sisters soon supported her and wished her good luck.

"Seize the opportunity, Ruth. You have two children to look after. You must be powerful!"

"We will watch over you here. Soak up as much of this inheritance as you can."

The three women spoke words of encouragement until the great dragon looked at Ruth and floated her close to where Minos stood.

As he looked at them, the level-100 body of the great dragon stood still for a moment, assessing what he should give to each of them.

'Very well, I will seal my power into your body, young level 83 Sage, and give the rest to this woman. I want to see how your journey will continue!' He said before he started to fly around Minos and Ruth.

After only one circle around them, the dragon disappeared, and a colorful aura appeared around them, drawing closer and closer to them.

There were no additional tests in this legacy. By succeeding in awakening the remnant of the level 100 dragon, Minos had completed every test he needed to pass.

By demonstrating the greatest compatibility with this dragon that such a remnant had ever felt in his entire existence, he chose to pass on his inheritance to Minos without hesitation!

After more than 4 million years of waiting, someone 100% compatible had finally appeared. There was no reason for him not to move forward with Minos, even though he was a human, even though he had already been chosen by another God, and even though he was only a Sage.

For some reason, the people of his race had abandoned this space, and no dragons of particular note had attempted to pass his test.

'Maybe I should have left a warning for my tribe members back then...' The dragon flying as fast as light thought to himself, imagining it had been a mistake not to let a hint for someone come to him and prove themselves.

'It doesn't matter anymore. My waiting is over!' 𝓫ℯ𝓭𝓃𝓸𝓋ℯ𝓁．𝓬𝓸𝓂

As he thought this, he entered the bodies of Minos and Ruth and began their transformations.

Amid it, they both fell into a deep sleep and suddenly found themselves in a strange place.
