Future Pillars of the Black Plain
Three days later...
After leaving the coastal region of the Grinia Empire, the group of Minos, Starclaw, and Nino was finally reaching the first point where they would stop to hire mercenaries.
But before doing so, their group was stopped at a small camp where the rest of Nino's group nearby had just arrived.
After Nino had communicated with his people earlier, several of these Longus family members had come to this place to join Minos' group.
Among them, the leader of the Minos-friendly faction was also there.
...
"Chosen one! It is a pleasure to meet you." The leader of that faction, level 86, said this in an emotional tone. "We have been waiting for you for a long time. We have heard many theories and stories about your arrival... But we have remained loyal to the ancestor's request and are here to help you."
