Chapter 70: Emlyn and Kyla
Chapter 70: Emlyn and Kyla
She was not too surprised that Minos would come to her and start a conversation. It was not uncommon to know that a 5th stage spiritual beasts could speak the human language.
She couldn't believe that someone was able to recognize her race in a place as poor as this. To begin with, her race had not come to the Central Continent for centuries, much less to a place with such a poor spiritual density. So, it was unexpected that someone would recognize her race in these areas.
At the same time that the mother fox was completely shocked by what Minos had said, Dillian was also quite surprised. He had never heard of such a race, but he already expected Minos to recognize it since he had inherited the expertise of a high-level specialist.
As the mother fox stared at Minos, Ruth finally approached the group and began to look closely at the beasts in front of her. The little fox looked very normal to her, but her mother was completely unusual. She had never seen a fox with more than one tail.
And even though some great powers of the Central Continent knew of this race, Ruth was not a part of them. After all, her empire never had a God. It was just a second-tier empire.
The mother fox then spoke for the first time. "How do you know about my race?"
"Ehh, I can tell you about it later, but then, won't you tell me your name?" Minos said with a smile on his face.
The fox looked at him for a moment and said. "My name is Emlyn. But what difference does it make to you? You will probably only try to sell us, like those humans from before."
Clang!
Minos then shook his head in denial and then opened the cell with his sword. He crouched down to the fox's eye level and said. "You are wrong. I will not do that, as I will still give you medical treatment and let you decide your own destiny."
"Hmph, do you think I'm a fool?" Emlyn said angrily as she looked at Minos.
Minos then ignored the fox's gaze and looked at the butler Dillian and said. "Grandpa Dillian, can you start her treatment?"
"Hmm, all right, young master," Dillian said before entering the cell. He then started using his healing-focused technique.
Radiant Healing!
At the same time, a golden light began to be emitted from Dillian's hands, gradually healing Emlyn's wounds. Every time the golden light emitted by Dillian's technique passed through a wound, the wounded tissues of that fox's body began to regenerate quickly. At the same time, the dirt and black blood that had dried were degraded, leaving the wound completely clean before it was closed.
At the same time, Minos took a large bowl from his spatial ring and placed it in front of the two foxes.
Tchuf!
After that, Minos began to fill the bowl with water from the Spatial Kingdom. He then said. "Drink. I know you are well dehydrated. There is no poison."
Seeing this, Emlyn felt a little strange as she looked at Minos and the bowl. She didn't know if she could trust him, but before she made up her mind, her daughter jumped into the bowl and started drinking the water quickly.
"Kyla! Wait a minute..." She said in a low voice. However, it was no use. The little fox continued to drink. As a spiritual beast, Kyla had great senses, so she knew that this water was not only not poisoned, and it was still very rich in spiritual energy.
Kyla's mom just didn't realize it before because she was so worried about Minos. His knowledge was not common for anyone in this place, and she was also severely injured. That is why she could not probe the spiritual water before her daughter.
"See, if it were poisoned, your daughter wouldn't do that. Drink. It will help your recovery." Minos said.
After a while, mother and daughter drank all the water that Minos had put there. Soon after, he took out a bag of spiritual apples and placed its there for the two of them to eat.
Minos then patted the little fox on the head and said. "What's your daughter's name? Have you already chosen?"
"Hmm, her name is Kyla," Emlyn said as she ate several apples at once. She was hungry! Not only did she not eat for two days, but she was also drained of spiritual energy.
"Oh! Beautiful name. Well, Emlyn, although I assure you that you can do what you want, I will still make you an offer. Please listen to everything before refusing. I'll also give you plenty of time to decide, so you don't have to answer now."
At the same time that Minos was beginning to speak his offer, Elen and Eduard had arrived at the place. They were also curious about this beast that they have never seen before.
"Oh, what a beautiful fox!" Elen said when she saw Kyla trying to eat an apple.
Meanwhile, Minos approached Emlyn's ears and said in a low voice. "If you agree to join my forces, I will not only allow you to personally kill the responsible for what happened to you, but I will also help you and Kyla to reach level 89 in less than 150 years."
Upon hearing this, Emlyn was even more shocked by Minos' offer than when she found out that he could recognize her race. This was because it was not easy for a member of any race to reach the limit of their potential.
No, even in the Emlyn tribe, there were only five foxes with nine tails that reached that level in the last generation! What's more, they all did it, only after a few thousand years!
"Hmph, you are saying nonsense. Do you know how difficult it is to reach that level with my potential? It is not easy to find free high-level medicines out there. And for each of its, there is a great massacre for someone to get the right to absorb its." Emlyn said in a mocking tone.
And it was challenging to find top-notch medicines that didn't have an owner. Most of these plants were planted within the properties of large families and large tribes. And those powers barely had enough for themselves, so outsiders could forget to buy something like that.
And even if someone were to sell such medicine, it would be at such a high price that few people in the world could afford it. And as for those free in nature, well, it was easier to find a needle in the haystack. And even if someone found one of these, it doesn't mean that she, or he, would be the only one...
Minos then said with a smile on his face. "I know that, but I can guarantee that what I say is the truth. I can prove it, but you will have to agree to join my forces after seeing this."
"But you don't have to worry about what I'm going to order from you. In fact, until you reach level 70, I don't plan to ask you for anything. You only need to help me if I am in danger of dying. Otherwise, I will only ask you to do something after recovering your paw and being able to transform into your humanoid form."
Minos didn't want to show a nine-tailed fox around. This was too risky, and sooner or later, she could be recognized. That way, to avoid a disaster, he wouldn't ask her to do anything until she could transform into her humanoid form. From then on, unless she used her original form, no one would distinguish her from humans.
According to Minos, it could take 40 to 50 years, but it would be worth waiting for him. A spiritual beast like a nine-tailed fox in his army was like having a human with Silver talent. And at the moment, Minos couldn't even dream of it!
After saying this, Minos got up to leave and that. "Don't worry about it now. I will help you recover from your injuries, and after that, I will let you deal with that bandit."
"For now, just focus on recovering. But when you decide, if you want to see my evidence, I can show you, but you will have to accept the deal after that."
He wanted Emlyn to come to his side, but to show her the existence of the Spatial Kingdom without her being compromised would be stupid. So, there was no going back if Emlyn wanted to know if Minos could keep his promises.
Upon returning to the group that was admiring the big 5-tailed fox, Ruth asked Minos. "What were you talking about? It felt like you didn't want us to hear." She said with a disappointed look on her face.
Minos had spoken loudly just so that the fox and he could hear. That way, no one else knew the content of the conversation, making the curious Ruth not take it and ask him.
Minos laughed and then said. "Nothing, we were just talking about common things, like life on the Continent of the Beast and here on the Central Continent. She seemed very interested in the way of life here, and so, I talked a little about the possibilities that she would have here..."
Ruth then opened her mouth in disbelief and asked. "Are you saying that she came from that legendary Continent of the Beasts?"
"Hmm, why? Are you impressed? It seems that your sect is not that incredible after all..." Minos teased her while taking advantage of the appearance of the beautiful Ruth.
