Hours passed, and it was already dawn in Diamond City.
At this moment, it was misting while Minos and Abby were still in the room they had rented. The two youths were already awake by now, playing with each other before the two left to continue their journey.
The room was filled with the fragrance released by the two, while their clothes were scattered here and there, along with the bedclothes.
Pah! Pah!
And as the daylight began to brighten their room more and more, Abby was riding on top of young Stuart, with her back and legs completely sweating.
She moved on top of Minos' rod as she moaned in pleasure, with a passionate look in her eyes.
"Ahhh~"
And finally, after doing this for a while, the young woman's body vigorously shook as she collapsed onto her partner's chest after a long, pleasant climax.
"Hah~ Hah~" She took a quick breath, feeling Minos' chest rise and fall as the young man's rod left her body, spilling his seed between her legs.
"Hah~ I love doing this with you, hah..." Minos commented to her, with a smile on his face, as he relaxed his muscles and hugged the waist of the beautiful young woman who was on top of him.
"Me too... Mmmm~" After that, the two kissed and stood for a moment in that position, admiring each other as they rested before leaving this place.
...
After a few minutes, the two had already taken a hot shower. Next, they had breakfast before finally deciding to walk in the town before continuing their journey.
Minos had a map of this state provided by Elen and knew a few things about this region from information from his ally and Abby. However, there were always more variables on a trip, and it wouldn't hurt to stay a few more hours in each place they passed, just to get to know the reality of this kingdom.
And as they descended the stairs of the inn where they had stayed, the two were talking about what they should do next. "Minos, why do you want to know more about this place? Are we not just passing through? What difference does it make to know more about a city like this?" Abby asked him.
Hearing this, Minos smiled and answered. "This region is very close to the Black Plain. Is it so strange that I want to know more about what surrounds me?"
"Not." She responded at the same time as she slapped his hand away.
"So, considering my future actions, knowing a few things about this place can help me a lot."
"And when are we leaving? Do you want to stay here longer?" She asked doubtfully.
And when the two were already walking in the central streets of Diamond City, Minos took one of Abby's hands as they walked through that place. He then said. "No, we're leaving before noon. Ahead of us is a forest region where we can start training. And given the distance between here and the next town, it makes no difference what time we go out, as we won't get there in less than a day."
"Hmm, OK."
After that, the two strolled through the busiest parts of Diamond City, where many people were already circulating, coming and going from their activities.
In general, this place was like any other small town that Minos had visited. There was a large mass of ordinary people that didn't earn much and did the jobs with lower pay. Still, there were also several well-paid professionals, with many at the 5th stage of cultivation.
And as expected, there was a Spiritual King in charge of this city for the sovereign family of that location. So, this place is similar to the city ruled by Mirya in the Cromwell Kingdom.
However, given its population a little larger than that of the City of Waters, there was a more abundant supply of services in Diamond City, with even professionals with less popular specializations.
There were even some grade-1 seers in this city, while there were grade-2 professionals for the three primary professions.
As for the main activity of this place, well, besides the mining of spiritual crystals, what generated the most profit for the sovereign family of this place was the passage of travelers through here.
Naturally, as the first town on the border of this state with the Brown Kingdom, many merchants and ordinary travelers passed through here.
And in addition to local sovereigns receiving a share of the immigration tax, these visitors also took advantage of various local services, which generated taxes indirectly.
Local commerce also attracted people from nearby towns, generating a network of influence that brought another 200,000 visitors per year.
Finally, there was also well-developed agriculture here. And despite this city not exporting, it still managed to produce enough food to meet the entire local food demand!
Anyway, Minos and Abby discovered this while talking to people willing to speak for some crystals...
Anywhere there would be government workers with some knowledge willing to talk. And given the financial position of the young ruler of the Black Plain, it had not been difficult for him to reach these people.
After talking to someone who knew someone who knew a person with such information, Minos had paid some 'fees' and reached the right person.
And with this individual, in addition to learning a little about the local reality, he had also discovered about the sovereign family of this city.
That family was the House Harris, a medium-size noble power of the Kingdom of the Waves.
Minos and Abby hadn't gotten deeper information about that power. After all, just as the Stokes family had another region under its domain, so did the rulers of Diamond City.
All they had discovered was that the Harris family was headquartered northwest of this town, over 2,000 kilometers away.
The Waves Peninsula!
This place was one of the southernmost parts of this kingdom and one of Stone Island's closest regions. But despite being farther south in the state, this place was nowhere near the Black Plain, and for that reason, it was as good as any other part of the Kingdom of the Waves.
It had an average concentration of spiritual energy and over 40 million inhabitants, divided into about 60 cities.
Anyway, Minos was still talking to that local government worker when the sun was almost at the top of the local sky. She then said to the couple in front of her, in that square where the three were talking. "That's all I know about the Harris family, sir, ma'am."
"OK, thanks for the info." Minos then thanked her and took the opportunity to give another tip for the information.
Seeing this, the woman smiled from ear to ear as she saw Minos and Abby leaving. She then remembered something and said. "Sir, you and your wife are traveling north alone, right?"
Hearing this, Abby blushed in embarrassment as she looked at Minos, who had only a smile on his face. He then said. "Hmm, my wife and I will travel north. Why the question?"
"You seem to be good people, so I want to warn you to be careful. As much as the north of our city is much safer than in the Yellow City region, there are still many dangers in the local forests."
"Not only are the beasts quite numerous, but the presence of bandits and pirate groups is not small in these regions."
"The other day, a neighbor of mine had his son killed while they were hunting here in the region. Bandits approached them, and when they tried to escape, things went wrong…." She warned Minos in a solemn tone.
Minos had been very generous with the crystals, so this local government worker couldn't help but have a good impression of him and Abby...
"Oh? Thanks for letting us know. We'll be careful." Minos quickly thanked her when he finally pulled his friend out of that place.
After that, the two left towards the place where they had left Abby's beast the night before, for them to leave Diamond City, finally.
'If any of these bandits or pirates come my way, it will be lucky. I'll at least be able to get some more techniques for the Dry City Public Library…' Minos reflected as he thought of that woman's warning.
