The night passed peacefully in the Dry City.
And as the day began, with the usual calm of mornings, two youths were sleeping peacefully in one of the city's government mansion bedrooms.
That place wasn't messy, or anything like that, with just the two clothes on top of an armchair in that room. Other than that, the site looked tidy, elegantly decorated, but not extravagant, with the necessary furniture that would be seen in any bedroom.
Finally, even though the curtains were partially closed, covering most of the glass windows, daylight illuminated the room at this time.
However, if someone walked in there, even without using the spiritual energy to see clearly, one could see the couple lying in bed, covered with a thin silk blanket.
The young woman had her beautiful blue hair somewhat messy at the moment, as she slept with a smile on her face, hugging the young man beside her.
And for the young man, he was shirtless, and his brown hair was also a little messy this time. He was still sleeping as he had one of his arms around his mate's waist, supporting her head with the other arm.
These, of course, are Minos and Abby, who had had a little more fun than usual the night before...
Abby hadn't gone so far as to allow herself to go all the way with Minos, but she'd given him more space, to the point where she'd had oral sex for the first time.
And after their nightly fun, Abby had decided to spend the night with Minos. By the time the two of them had finished, it was late at night, and this young woman was tired, and more importantly, she had already done all that to him, so why not sleep too?
That was just a tiny step, which the young Stuart himself had suggested to her. After all, even if nothing else was going to happen, as it did, it was still better to sleep with someone else than alone.
The nights could be cold, and the human warmth was the most pleasant...
And so, the present situation had been made possible.
...
Sometime after the start of the day, the two finally woke up slowly, feeling the pleasant warmth of each other's bodies.
The two of them had naturally slept half-naked, the best way to sleep together. With skin-to-skin contact!
And upon waking up, the two smiled contentedly, having hugged each other tightly and kissed right away.
"Good morning, Abby!" Minos said after separating his lips from hers.
"Morning!" She smiled as she looked into his eyes. "That was my best night's sleep since I got here."
"Hehe, did you think? Well, you can come whenever you want."
"Oh? If you don't mind, then I can come here more often…" She vaguely said as she watched Minos. After that, she used one of her hands to slide over his abdomen, going to her friend's pelvic region.
"Is your thing like this already?" Abby asked in surprise as she touched young Stuart's stick. She had helped her young friend relieve himself the night before, so she had already lost her inhibition to touch him.
Minos then looked at her for a moment and commented. "It's your fault for being so sexy... Why don't you help me?"
"To help you? The same way I did yesterday? In that awkward position?"
"That's right."
After that, the two gradually began their oral activity. The blue-haired young woman lay on Minos' top while she left her happy buttocks on his face.
...
After having fun with each other for some time, Minos and Abby soon went to have their morning meal in one of the specific rooms of his residence.
They'd been a little late, given their recent activity and the shower they'd both taken before leaving. However, probably Dillian and Eda would still be having breakfast there.
Lately, because Minos' trip to the Kingdom of the Waves was coming, Dillian and Eda came to eat here with Minos every day.
They had to take advantage of this little time left to talk and decide various matters that needed to be resolved when the young sovereign was away.
And as Minos' butler, Dillian naturally had access to this young man's residence, so it wasn't strange that he was around even before the young ruler wakes up.
As for Eda, she came with the butler.
Anyway, soon the two youths with smiles on their faces arrived in that part of the building, from where an intense fragrance of food came. Of course, the smell of coffee was the most remarkable. Still, the bread and some regional delicacies also gave off fragrances.
However, when they arrived at that place, what most caught the attention of the two was not the table full of dishes but the two women who were eating with Dillian and Eda.
They both had blond hair, milky skin and emitted a noble aura, typical of young women raised in prominent families.
These were Elen and Elena.
They had been quickly recognized by one of the army soldiers last night after being escorted to headquarters. And after that, they had come to Minos' mansion, where Dillian had received them, giving them both access to the mansion's visit area.
After resting in the apartments given to them, the two had been invited by Dillian to eat at Minos' residence, where they could finally meet the young sovereign.
Finally, after seeing the two women from Stone Island, Minos was surprised for a moment when he said something. "Elen? Elena? It's a surprise to see you around here!"
On the other hand, Abby was quite confused by the presence of these two strange around here. But she had previously heard Elen's name at Minos' army headquarters, so she quickly realized who these strange people were.
Elen then smiled at Minos and nodded at him. "Hmm, it was time to talk about our business, so I had to come in person."
After Elen said that, Elena took the turn and said with a satisfied smile to Minos. "It's good to see you, Minos. Hehe, it looks like you're even stronger now."
They had already probed the strength of Minos the moment he had entered the room. After all, after Elen had seen Dillian, she couldn't help but be shocked!
The first time she had seen this butler, he was only at level 46!
But here he was now, at level 50, having even passed the cultivation level of bodyguard Eduard, who was stronger than Dillian until recently...
So, Elen couldn't help but probe Minos' strength to find out how much her ally had improved in the meantime. And in doing so, she wasn't all that surprised, given Dillian's case.
Yet, Elen had still praised him internally.
When she participated in the Yellow City mission, their level difference was more than ten. However, now he was about to catch up with her, being only four levels below her!
'At this rate, he'll reach the 6th stage of cultivation before me...' Elen thought with a smile on her face. She was pleased about it.
The stronger Minos was, the more stable her business situation with him would be!
Chaotic and tumultuous situations could indeed create opportunities for merchants like Elen. However, the reverse was also true. That's why people like her vastly preferred slow but steady growth to something fast, but perhaps not as long...
As for Elena, even though she hadn't met Dillian, she'd already heard everything from Elen and naturally knew about how shocking the speed of cultivation of people in this place was. So, she had also probed the young Stuart and also the friend beside him.
'Is this his little girlfriend?' Elena asked herself with a smile on her face.
After that, Minos quickly introduced Abby to these business partners, when finally the group started eating and talking about essential facts...
"Ms. Elen, you were talking about the situation in the Kingdom of the Waves..."
