Landing inside the area protected by the wall, Elen and Elena didn't even care about their surroundings as they calmly descended from the giant bird that had brought them here.
And in doing so, they gradually began to walk towards the Dry City while talking peacefully.
The night was pleasant, and they were in no hurry to reach Minos' mansion. There was no Allen family spy behind them in this place, and it would take just a few more minutes to see Minos would make no difference to these two!
"Ah, we finally arrived!" Elena exclaimed loudly to her friend as she let out a long breath. "After days, I will finally be able to take a hot shower!"
"Hmm, and also a decent meal." Elen completed her friend's comment.
Because these two couldn't cook, whatever they found here would be better than what they'd eaten in the last few weeks...
"Do you think that..."
However, as they were walking and talking in the dark, a group of 30 people appeared, running after them.
And upon realizing this, the two friends immediately stopped their random conversations and became serious about this situation. "Is there any danger in the vicinity of the Dry City?" Elena wondered as she felt these strange people approaching them with hostile intentions.
"These people are all at level 42!" Elen commented to Elena as she started to dodge the attacks coming her way.
Even if she and Elena were at levels 47 and 46, respectively, fighting so many opponents at level 42 would be a challenge for both of them!
So, naturally, Elen was a little agitated at this point.
'Shit!' She inwardly cursed as she moved stealthily around the place.
And quickly, the group of 30 men surrounded these two and the beast that had brought them here.
At this point, one of them finally said. "You invaded the territory of the Dry City. Surrender immediately, or we will have no mercy!"
"What are you talking about? We didn't even enter the Dry City. How could we have invaded something?" Elena was the first to speak, as she expressed anger to this stranger.
"You two breached the protective space of the city wall and entered our territory irregularly. Last warning, surrender now, or we will act!" One of the Sergeants leading the group said thickly.
Naturally, these 30 men were the soldiers who were patrolling the wall and perceived the arrival of Elen and Elena on that flying beast.
Not only that, but some of them had seen and heard the sounds of Elen's group from a distance and so had immediately come in pursuit of the two.
In the middle of nowhere, where the wall was, these soldiers, who often had to make spiritual probes, had not taken long to notice the arrival of these two. After all, they hadn't been careful landing there...
Upon realizing that these people were Dry City soldiers, Elen immediately came to her senses, calming down from the scare she just had felt. She had ignored the existence of this wall, as they had arrived in a flying beast in the middle of the night.
Because of that, she hadn't noticed this location, only having focused on the glittering city in front of her. She then said. "I'm Elen Nash, and this is my friend Elena Neel. We came from Stone Island to see my business partner, Minos."
"Elen Nash?" Many of these soldiers muttered that name at the same time.
Naturally, Minos' soldiers knew of his relationship with the Nash family, specifically with this woman. That's because, as the primary business partner and the origin of the vast majority of crystals circulating in the Dry City, these men couldn't remain in the dark about such information.
So, every soldier in the army would know who Elen Nash was.
After hearing Elen's identification, one of them finally said. "Do you have anything to prove it? We can't believe you just based on your word."
"A prove?" Elen muttered under her breath, trying to think of something. But there was nothing. 'I even have my identification within the Nash family, but what use would it be here?'
"I have information that, apart from the army soldiers and me, no one else should know." She commented, remembering something.
"An information?" One of the soldiers asked curiously.
Of course, that wasn't a bad way to identify her origins. Still, the information could be spread... So, it could be a little superficial.
"It's about the naval base, from where the local goods are shipped to Stone Island, on the ships of the Nash family…" She then began to talk about what that location was like and its exact position.
Such a thing was indeed only known to army soldiers and the Nash family themselves.
She then completed. "If that's not enough, some time ago, I took part in the Black Plain Army's operation in the Yellow City. At that time, Ruth defeated the bandits' leader, while Minos' soldiers killed the rest of the bandits. There were six bandits, who soldiers killed."
"In addition, two of the bandits were kept alive during the invasion that had taken place in that city, days before the destruction of the band. One of them Minos only promised to destroy his cultivation if he told the truth." Elen finished speaking.
All of this information she had given was secret. Apart from the people who had participated in it and the local soldiers, no one else would know about it.
The soldiers had naturally heard of the case, as it was part of their routine to study the operations already carried out.
There were always one or two points for improvement. So, it would be relevant if new soldiers understood what could be done in such situations.
A given action could change the entire course of a mission, so it was crucial to discuss what went right, what could be improved, and what should not be done at all!
Consequently, even if none of these soldiers went to the Yellow City mission, they all knew the details of it.
'Looks like they are the young master's trading partners...' One of them thought as he relaxed a little.
After a moment of silence, the person who had spoken before finally decided what would be done. "Your identities are probably real, but we'll escort you to the headquarters. I know a soldier who participated in this mission that is working there right now."
"With that, he will confirm your identity, and then we will release you. All right?" He asked as he lowered his weapon and asked the rest of the group to do the same.
"Hmm, that's fine." The two responded simultaneously.
After that, 20 of these men headed back to the city, following Elen and Elena, while the others returned to the wall.
...
At the same time as Elen and Elena were being escorted by local soldiers into the city, Minos and Abby were currently at this young man's residence.
By the time it was past dinner, and the two were talking, sitting on one of the sofas in the living room of that place.
Abby was dressed discreetly while her face was slightly flushed. After having fun with Minos last time, she still hadn't experienced his touch again, but she was slowly craving for it...
After experiencing sexual pleasure for the first time, it had marked this young woman. Even though she had a strong personality, it was still difficult to ignore specific desires. So, she was embarrassed for thinking perverted thoughts with Minos every time she was alone with him.
As for Minos, although it's not easy to understand what's in a woman's mind, he could still imagine Abby's thoughts. After all, despite everything, her body still exhibited some patterns when they were alone...
And as an observant man, this young sovereign had naturally noticed the signs.
Anyway, after some time talking to his friend, Minos naturally started unbuttoning Abby's shirt until, in a flash, she was without any garment covering her bust.
Abby hadn't refused his advances, as she wanted it, and it was always easier to do anything on a second try...
She had already done this to him before. So, what harm would it be to repeat the dose?
