Facing the Enemy
When Vico Travisani appeared above the volcano, Minos and Ruth looked at him wide-eyed, seeing how unlucky they were.
'Did it have to be him?' Ruth looked at Minos with a frightened expression.
If it had been Maximilian, their situation would have been much less dire. But Vico was someone who had openly threatened Minos many times!
What's more, the Black Plain Empire had sided with the Spiritual Church in the war on the Central Continent, something else that could endanger them!
And now they were facing the strongest enemy they could have!
Isabella and the rest of the Black Plain Empire personnel were not there, as Minos had sent them to his Spatial Kingdom when he realized that the defenses around the North Sea had collapsed.
Thus, only the survivors of the expedition that had traveled together from Dry City to this place were at his side.
