P.S= #13:The Minto Family

Three days have passed since the climactic battle in the kingdom, and now, the crew finds themselves in a bustling restaurant, indulging in a much-needed feast.

"Munch! Munch! Munch!"

Naima observes Cory's voracious appetite with amusement. "Wow, he really can eat?"

Kiyomizu, not missing a beat, chimes in, "Yeah, I have a feeling his second magic drive is having a bottomless stomach."

Amid the satisfying sounds of munching, Naima turns her attention to Cory. "Cory, tell me something."

"Huh? What's that?" Cory mumbled through a mouthful of food.

"Where are we going next?" Naima inquired.

"Anywhere the road takes us, hahah," Cory grinned.

"And what is the crew's primary goal?" Naima pressed on.

"Hmmmm, I don't know, to make me the strongest slayer in the world," Cory said with a confident smirk.

Ava chimed in, "What about Arthur?"

"Oh yeah, I forgot. The crew's main job is to find my brother Arthur," Cory admitted.

"Is that all? Because you said you wanted to become a heavenly general, which means you will have to go against The Slayer System and The Elders," Naima observed.

"Don't worry, it's fine. As long as they don't get in our way. But if they do, we will take down the whole slayer system, including the Elders," Cory declared.

"Okay, Captain," the crew said in unison.

"Let's go to Edena and take Nathaniel's title," Cory announced.

"We can't, not yet at least. In fact, we are in the Aldoron continent, and Edena is not in this region, to be honest," Naima explained.

"Then we will go to where it is, haha," Cory chuckled.

"It's not so easy to get to the Gondwana region. Remember, we are in the Laurasia," Naima cautioned.

"What do you mean?" Kiyomizu asked.

"You see, it's because of Mount Kyla and its powerful Haku. And not only that, the other five continents are on the other side of the world, and that's where the Elders and heavenly generals are, including Nathaniel. That's where the most powerful people live, including the strongest Ayakashi," Naima clarified.

"That sounds great. I wonder if Arthur is there. No problem, we have Ava to fly us over," Cory said confidently.

"You don't get it, do you? What splits the Laurasia region and the Gondwana region isn't Mount Kyla but the Tethys Web," Naima revealed.

"The Tethys Web?" Ava asked, her curiosity piqued.

"Yes, once we enter the Tethys Web, all magic drive and haku cease to function. This includes Ava's ability to transform. There are only two ways to navigate the treacherous web: through the cave of Mount Kyla or over it. The most efficient route is over it, so what we need is a means of transportation."

"Like a warship that can fly," suggested Kiyomizu.

"Yeah, but not only that, we need more crewmates," added Naima.

"Oh, oh, we already have a doctor, so we're going to need an engineer, some powerful fighters, a scientist, and a historian," declared Cory.

"Why would we need a scientist?" questioned Ava.

"I don't know, but the idea sounds fun," responded Cory.

"But first, we need an engineer one who can construct a powerful ship. Lucky for us, we are near the Steel City, where the Minto family resides and works," explained Naima.

"Who are the Mintos?" asked Cory.

"They are genius engineers who can build anything," clarified Kiyomizu.

"Do you know them?" inquired Naima.

"No, just heard about their works," replied Kiyomizu.

[Meanwhile, at the Elders HQ - The Cathedral of Judgment Also Known As Veridominium Cathedral]

"Oh, look who's finally here," said Goujirou.

"Welcome back, Celeste," greeted Ichika.

"Glad to be back, Mr. Ichika," [the 12th Elder Celeste Silva] she replied before taking a seat beside Rebecca.

"So, back to the matter at hand," said Kohaku.

"Coryeil Silva has defeated the Ayakashi that attacked the Earth Kingdom. Not only that, he has gained a new teammate, Naima Summer, an IGS with a net worth of ₩☆1,000,000."

"Jiiikhahahah, that's my little brother for you," replied Haruki.

"I have some information you guys would love to hear," said Celeste.

"Which is?" inquired Rebecca.

"Their crew name is The Phoenix Slayers, and not only that, the third daughter of Asahi Kimzoku is in that crew," revealed Celeste.

"Huh? The Phoenix Slayers? What does that mean?" asked Endri.

"I don't know. By the way, where's the 8th Elder Misaki?" Celeste questioned.

"She's on a mission," replied Haruki.

"I see, okay then," said Celeste, pausing for a moment before adding, "Wait a minute, did you just say the third daughter of Asahi Kimzoku?" queried Ichika.
