Leaving the Phoenix's Territory 

Leaving the tent of leaders of the territory he was in, Minos soon caught up with his group, which was waiting for him on the north side of the camp.

When he got there, he met 35 people of various races, where the four new crew members were waiting with the others to begin their journey.

In the months he had been in this phoenix territory, Minos had acquired four new names for his crew. Among them were two phoenixes, but also two beings of different races, allies of the phoenixes, with whom Emperor Stuart had had contact in that camp.

One was a Longbeaked Hawk, and the other was a rare Pegasus!

These were two of the three vassal races of the Phoenix Tribe whose members could reach the 10th stage.

Not every tribe capable of reaching this level had high-level Demigods in their ranks. Therefore, it was very common for such tribes to be subservient to more powerful races, such as the phoenix race.
