A few minutes before...
"I'll send you to a safe place."
After hearing this from Minos, Abby didn't even have time to change her startled expression due to the earlier danger when she felt the space around her vibrate subtly.
Zum!
'What's going on?' So she thought that when she suddenly lost sight of Minos and appeared in a completely different place, full of trees but very different from the forest she'd been in earlier.
"Minos?" She screamed in shock as she tried to understand what had happened. 'Where I am? What did he do? Could that be some teleportation device?' Abby began to question herself as she felt a shiver down her spine.
She couldn't help but tremble in fear at what had almost happened to her just now.
Seeing her life almost taken away had been terrifying to her!
At that moment, unlike having her mind working at its peak and her experiences passing through her mind all at once, the only thing there was a silence, a meaningless blank.
It was like she was insignificant and couldn't even think about what she would lose. The only idea that was present at that moment was that she would die.
And that was frightening, especially for a person who valued relationships, like Abby.
But after going through that problem, all these thoughts were slowly starting to engulf the mind of Minos' girlfriend.
She was in love with that young man, and they had even started a meaningful relationship recently. But, still, she had almost lost it all at that moment...
And the idea that she would die and that her family, friends, and partner would suffer for her was not an easy one to deal with. Of course, dying wasn't a pleasant experience for someone who died... But as far as Abby knew, death was the end, and there wouldn't be an after.
And if that were indeed the truth, then death was far worse for those who stay alive, the living who would have to keep moving on in the absence of their loved ones!
Anyway, thinking about these dreadful things, tears quickly ran down the corners of Abby's eyes as she knelt on that ground where she had been taken.
"Ungh..." She released the pain from her soul as she cried and felt her face heat up at the same time as she gripped the ground.
"Ungh... Minos, where are you?" She muttered in a low voice as she felt a cold that chilled every pore of her beautiful body.
And after some time in that place, she gradually observed the surroundings from where she was while starting to calm down.
The experience she had gone through would not be overcome with just a few seconds, as she would undoubtedly feel certain insecurity for some time.
However, getting carried away by fear or sadness would not be good for a cultivator in her situation. She had been attacked and suddenly sent to an unknown location, and even if Minos had told her it was a safe place, the unknown would always generate caution in anyone.
In this case, she had to swallow her feelings as soon as possible and pay attention to where she was!
And in doing so, she soon began to look around as she dried her tears.
This place looked wonderful, with many trees of all kinds, colorful flowers, looking like something perfect, untouched by human hands.
"What is this place?" She wondered when she saw the vegetable richness of the Spatial Kingdom. And finally, when Abby tried to probe the surroundings, she realized how dense the spiritual energy of this place was.
If we were to compare, the spiritual density of the Black Plain was like a deflated balloon, almost without gas. But, on the other hand, the spiritual density of the Spatial Kingdom was like a fully inflated balloon, on the verge of explosion!
The pressure of so much spiritual energy alone could make it possible for cultivators to have virtually no difficulty cultivating here, even without the support of spiritual crystals. In fact, the time needed to collect spiritual energy in such an environment was minimal.
Unless one's cultivation were very high, it wouldn't make much difference whether or not to use crystals!
But before she was even more impressed with this location, a fox with orange and white fur ran towards Abby at all the speed it had, quickly waving its four tails.
"Au! Au! Au!"
At the same time, Emlyn was slowly approaching where Abby had appeared, calmly watching her daughter running in front of her.
"Are there beasts here?" Abby frowned for a moment as she saw the figure of those two foxes. But soon she remembered something. 'It was that fox...'
But just as Abby was pondering where she knew the big fox with six tails, Kyla jumped on top of Minos' girlfriend and started licking her face.
'This human smells like the big brother. She must be a good person…' So, Kyla thought to herself as she licked Abby's delicate face and moved on top of this young woman as if asking to be hugged.
"Ahh!" A short scream resounded in that spot as Abby expressed her surprise at the unexpected act of this fox.
But soon, she realized that Kyla was very friendly and just wanted to get closer to her. 'Are those Minos' beasts?' She wondered as a slight smile formed at the corner of her mouth, and she used one of her hands to dry her still wet eyes.
"Alright, I'll play with you..."
After that, Abby began to run her hands around Kyla's neck while this fox lifted its head and closed its eyes, enjoying this moment.
And after they'd known each other for a while, Kyla had given Abby room to get up from that spot when Emlyn had finally stopped beside them.
The giant fox paused beside the blue-haired human and then yawned, lifting its head high and opening its wide mouth. Then she lay down on that spot and looked at Abby. "Minos sent you here. Something must have happened. What's it?"
Hearing this, Abby stopped paying attention to Kyla and turned her attention to the six-tailed fox, which was almost casting a shadow big enough for her and the smaller fox. She then swallowed a mouth of saliva and said. "I'm not sure, but when I was sent here, he had saved my life after a level 52 Spiritual King attacked me."
"Oh? And what was the level of the strongest enemy? Was this person at level 52?"
"No, there was someone at level 54."
"Minos is already at level 44?"
"Hmm, he..."
After that, the two of them started talking about this incident, with Abby telling Emlyn everything she had noticed before Minos sent her here.
Emlyn was worried, of course, so she was asking all these questions. But there was nothing she could do to help him. After all, the Spatial Kingdom could only be accessed through the ring of Minos or an exit properly constructed by high-level grade-4 professionals.
But Henricus Longus hadn't left anything like that behind, as it wouldn't be interesting if his inheritance were found by some lucky one...
Anyway, all Emlyn could do was worry.
But from what she had heard from Abby, this big fox felt confident in Minos' victory. After all, she knew his strength better than anyone else, as she constantly watched him train and had even fought him.
Also, due to this fox's higher level than Abby, Emlyn could quickly tell where Minos' current limit was, which this young man's girlfriend couldn't!
And eventually, Kyla's mother began to explain to Abby what this place was and what she knew about Minos that the young woman of the Miller family didn't.
That was a whole new world for Abby, and she couldn't help but be surprised several times while listening to that fox's explanation.
...
And so, quickly, two days passed.
