Chapter 938: Mother’s Visit
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Dry City…
At this moment, a woman was floating on the outskirts of Dry City, observing from a high altitude that place below her feet.
She wore a beautiful dark blue armor shaped like a dress, which, although it covered her beautiful body well, left some hints that would make any man’s mind work.
But, aside from her first-rate body, which, unfortunately for anyone who happened to be nearby at the time, had almost no skin showing, her unrivaled appearance was on display as the wind ruffled the veil over her face.
And if anyone on the outskirts of that city were to look in this person’s direction and be able to see from such a distance, this person would see her thin, flawless face. Not only that, but this person would also see her striking red lips and brown eyes that matched her wavy hair of the same color perfectly.
But as much as she looked like a true goddess among mere humans, her beautiful face had a confused expression, as if she was endlessly working her mind to understand what was going on.
She had a focused gaze on Dry City, while her spiritual senses were spreading out everywhere in the surrounding area, checking out this area.
‘It seems that this place has changed a lot since my last visit…’ She pondered this as she noticed the differences between the city and the surrounding area.
Not only were there more people and buildings, but the natural spiritual energy of this area was denser than the last time she had passed through this city.
‘This spiritual root is recovering rapidly!’ She concluded this with a smile on her face, curious to know how this was all happening.
But considering the number of changes this place had gone through since Minos’ arrival, she knew that only he could be behind it all.
‘Minos is especially clever…’
‘He didn’t say anything to Ruth, even though she is his girlfriend and the two were even in love!’
Her lips formed an even more prominent arch, making her look more stunning. “Very well, you make me proud, Minos.” She murmured as she thought of her son.
That, of course, was Maisie Coleman, level 69, the mother of young Stuart and Ruth’s master.
From time to time, Maisie used part of her free moments of responsibility to come to the northern region of the Central Continent and observe Minos’ situation in secret.
She worried about what he was doing, but she was also very curious about how her son had become so strong and managed to do such impressive things even without outside help.
That’s why she had come to this place several times since her only encounter with Minos in these almost ten years since his awakening.
Today, she was here to do the same, once again.
In particular, after the trouble Minos had been causing in this region, she had become particularly interested in observing her son’s actions. He was constantly showing her new things.
She was not impressed because she had never seen anything of the sort but because she did not have such high expectations for him.
Maisie even wished that her son would become someone great. After all, he was her son, and there was no reason to wish small things for him.
But this woman was quite pragmatic. Because of Minos’ talent revealed at the time of the spiritual academy and the fact that he had much of his father’s personality, she did not think he had enough.
At least, that was her previous assumption, which had allowed for all of the surprises she had experienced in the years since her son began his cultivation journey.
But now, she no longer underestimated him and had high expectations for Minos!
Not that she was interested in her son’s stuff, she was not. But she frankly was curious to know how far Minos could go and the origin of his possibilities.
Previously she had considered the possibility of possession. Still, after secretly checking his body several times, she had already ruled that out and was reassured that her son was fine.
But still, she wanted to know more about the mystery of Minos Stuart, even if only out of curiosity.
‘It seems that you will come to see me in the empire sooner than I had imagined…’ She thought of this as she remembered what the master of the Gray Clouds Sect had told her.
But as Maisie slowly watched that small part of her son’s territory, she finally felt something strange, which removed the smile off her face.
‘Who is this?’ She asked herself as she looked in Gloria’s direction.
After that, she quickly flew towards that redheaded woman, worried about why someone so strong was in that place.
She could not sense Gloria’s level because this acquaintance of Minos was inside the area protected by the defensive dome of Dry City, which blocked Maisie’s spiritual sense. But upon seeing that stunning beauty hovering in the air, Maisie had readily realized that such a person was a Spiritual Emperor!
Consequently, to prevent trouble for her son, she did not delay heading in that person’s direction, quickly passing through one of the entrances to Dry City.
Unlike Gloria, Maisie already had the pass to enter this place.
Not only did some soldiers know her identity, but Dillian had done her the favor of giving her an item of identification.
With this, Maisie passed through the many Black Plain Army soldiers without having any problems nor having to wait for an escort or authorization. Instead, she just made her way to that city, flying toward Gloria.
…
Meanwhile, Gloria was floating high above Dry City, watching this place interestedly.
She enjoyed seeing how Minos’ schemes for this place worked since this city was very different from all the others she had ever seen in this region.
‘Hmm, the models of this place, for some reason, remind me of the Western Empire…’ She thought about this as she saw the everyday movement of a part of this city.
But while doing so, she suddenly felt a terrifying power coming at high speed toward her, making her completely forget her previous thoughts.
‘What’s happening?’
‘Level 69?’ Her eyes opened in shock as she saw the silhouette of a woman flying towards her.
‘Who is this person? What is she doing in Dry City?’ She looked fearfully at Maisie, not recognizing Minos’ mother.
But that was normal. As much as Gloria already knew about Minos’ glorious mother, she did not know her personally or expect to meet this person in Dry City.
And the same was true for Maisie.
Of course, she knew Gloria’s identity since this woman was the head of the Spiritual Church for this region. But without knowing her personally, nor expecting to meet her here, young Stuart’s mother had not identified that redhead either.
“Who are you? What are you doing in Dry City?” Minos’ mother asked first, already holding the beautiful Gloria by the neck menacingly.
Gulp!
“I might ask the same thing!”
“Why is someone of your level in Dry City? Besides, how did you get in here? Don’t tell me you killed and threatened Minos’ soldiers?” Gloria asked angrily, looking in the direction of Maisie’s eyes, who at the moment had her face covered by a blue veil.
“Quiet!”
“I’ll ask the questions here, brat!”
“Answer my questions, or I’ll have to take action against you!” Maisie said coldly, tightening her hand around Gloria’s neck until it made this woman tremble with fear.
And there was no way she could not be afraid. The difference in cultivation between someone of level 64 and 69 was more or less double!
With such a difference, Maisie could exterminate Gloria in the blink of an eye!
And knowing this, Gloria could not help but curse her luck before finally answering that person. “My name is Gloria Frost, and I am here to meet the local sovereign, Minos Stuart.”
