All Set for the Decisive Battle
One month later...
After the arrival in Dry City of the group of mercenaries from Elemental City in the Western Empire, the ten individuals spent several days being updated on the local situation.
They followed several confrontations without fighting or showing themselves since they were the surprises that Minos wanted to leave for Abe to find in Dry City.
But even without fighting, these individuals could learn about the local challenges of the Black Plain Empire, the enemy force level, local characteristics, and what they should do.
Since the job was not complex, to protect Dry City and the local forces while Minos was in the Flaming Empire, those people learned quickly about their role locally.
But even though this happened quickly, a whole month had passed since the arrival of this foreign group, enough for them to understand better who Minos was.
