After the previous conversation with Grant, Minos spent the night in that little city in the Kingdom of the End before finally heading north.
Then, two days passed quietly, and this young man had finally reached the capital of this state, the city of Mirabella.
Such a place was very different from the small city he had passed through earlier, being a large metropolis with over 7 million inhabitants.
Mirabella was huge, with more than a thousand square kilometers of area, many buildings and squares of all kinds scattered throughout the city.
At the same time, the neighborhoods here were much more organized than in other cities in this region. It was almost as if they were a collection of different cities in one area without borders.
Each of them had its characteristics, from the architecture of the buildings, the design of the street lamps, to even the paving model.
In addition, there were areas where only public buildings were, such as the city center, where the royal palace and the temple of the Spiritual Church in this city were located.
On the other hand, there were residential neighborhoods around Mirabella, with commercial districts between such locations and large recreational areas in the vicinity of each of them.
Because of this different model from the rest of the region, Mirabella had no traffic problems, even though this city was home to more than 7 million people. There are no problems with overcrowded neighborhoods or residents crossing the city from one side to the other just for work.
No, this city seemed much less hectic than other large regional capitals because of the local setup. It even has the presence of neighborhoods so quiet that it would not be strange for someone to think they were in a smaller city.
And Minos had already sensed some of this by just moving around this city in a rented carriage as he made his way towards his destination.
This young man had just arrived in Mirabella and had already left his beast companion in the vicinity of this region. And since he did not have much to do around here, he was heading directly to Kara's house, where he wanted to see if he could find her.
As for his regional intimidation mission, his very presence in this city would be enough to invoke certain feelings among the leaders of the Carline family.
After all, after weeks since his actions against the Walker and Hargraves families, the royal house of this kingdom surely knew that these cases were threats from him against such power!
Minos had been clear with his offer to Kara. So, it would not take a mind of genius for the leaders of this family to realize that.
Hence, Minos was not interested in killing anyone this time. On the contrary, he was more interested in bedroom matters, finding Kara, and doing many things with that woman inside the local royal palace itself!
This young man had had to deprive his carnal desires for the last three months, so his 'appetite' had already reached an unprecedented level...
Minos would probably not seek anything as exotic as fucking an enemy's daughter inside such a person's home in everyday situations. But with sexual deprivation came desire, something that took even the timid out of their comfort zone!
And hell, young Stuart was not shy at all. Consequently, he was heading to the local royal palace with a smile on his face, eager to meet Kara and release his accumulated stress since his failed attempt with Gloria.
'I hope she truly is here...' He thought about it inside the carriage he had rented earlier as he looked out over the brightly lit streets of the central part of this city.
Minos had heard rumors while traveling through the kingdom that Kara and Ford were visiting their family. Because of this, he was so excited to come to this city!
...
A few minutes later, a young man with brown hair walked towards the entrance of the royal palace while having his two hands in the pockets of his black overcoat.
However, unlike in other situations, this young man was not wearing his traditional golden mask this time.
No, he wanted to announce his arrival to the family, who would be hosting him for at least one night. As such, there was no need to use such artifice.
"Hey! Hey!"
"Hold it right there, kid!"
"The palace is closed for visitors! Come back tomorrow!" One of the Spiritual Kings, leader of the royal guard on patrol, said this loudly as he looked at Minos coming towards him.
Meanwhile, many guards in the surroundings of that place were already looking with strange looks at Minos, as if they were thirsting to attack this newly arrived person at the slightest misunderstanding.
However, they were lucky that Minos was not there for them. So, they just listened to how young Stuart invited himself into that place protected by a medium-level grade-2 defensive array. "Don't waste your time rejecting me. I'm here to see Kara. I'm sure she's already waiting for me."
"What?"
"Who are you, brat?"
"Bastard! Do you think the princess would welcome someone like you?"
"Not only will she welcome me into her house. But she will also let me into other places as well..." Minos said with an incomparable smile, making everyone tremble with anger.
Kara was gorgeous, and as a woman of much higher status than these men, they could only dream of her.
But even though they had no contact with her, they had felt a decisive blow when Minos had quoted such absurdity.
"You wretch! I will kill you!"
"Say your name, worm!"
Many of them shouted as they prepared to run toward Minos, already with weapons in their hands.
"Oh? That's right. I should have introduced myself already..." Minos said in a peaceful tone, embarrassed by his lack of manners.
"Tell Kara that Minos Stuart is here to see her."
"But don't delay with that. I'm not known for my patience..."
"What?" Some of them asked this as they felt goosebumps on their bodies, frightened to hear that damned name.
Meanwhile, the legs of others trembled as they realized that all the characteristics of the devil Minos could be seen in that newcomer.
'Brown hair, brown eyes, nice looking, tall, strong...' One of the women there pondered over Minos' physical features while swallowing her saliva in nervousness.
But not everyone there was convinced of Minos' words.
"Don't believe him!"
"I'm sure he's just a charlatan trying to trick us into taking advantage of our princess!"
"Let's take him down and start the interrogation!"
Shouts from those more agitated arose in the surroundings. At the same time, some of the more ignorant began to doubt their convictions, believing the words of those more active in that place.
"Oh? You people prefer to do things with violence?" Minos asked this as a dark red-bladed sword appeared in his left hand.
"You want me to prove my identity?"
Gulp!
Sounds of saliva being swallowed spread around the main entrance of the royal palace as those people finally began to believe Minos' words.
But none of them took the initiative to do what Minos had politely asked. Because of this, this young man could not help but lose his good mood.
"Tsk!"
"You guys can't even do something that simple? Forget it."
"I'll go in on my own!" He said in a firm tone, holding the sword from before as he walked in the opposite direction to those people.
Simultaneously, a gigantic black ring appeared from Minos' feet, swirling around his surroundings as it passed a chilling sensation to everyone within its range.
"What is he doing?"
"How should I know?"
"Damn it!"
"We have to do something!"
Conversations began to arise among those terrified of fear who watched Minos slowly wave his sword in the direction of the protective barrier of that place.
"Hey! Hey!"
"Don't do that!"
"He will attack us!" Those people finally realized that they had made a mistake that would cost the defenses of that place!
Spatial Sword!
Just at that instant, as the royal guards on the outskirts were shouting in an attempt to stop young Stuart, the smartest of them felt terror, assuming what would happen next.
"No! No!"
"This is the end! Our family is finished!"
"Ahh! What a tragedy! The Queen will be killed!"
Swooish!
