The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1026 Independence Day 2

Given that the future of the northern region lay in the Black Plain, there was no reason for the Nash family not to attempt to expand their operations into this territory. Minos had already permitted them to come to this place, so it would be foolish not to take advantage of the opportunity.

Just as the Stone family was given a small plot of land outside the defensive dome of Dry City to build their outpost, the Nash family had gotten the same, and Elen already intended to come and live in Dry City in the future.

Her main business in the Nash family was her trade agreement with Minos. So, since he no longer had to hide in this region, staying close to him was the best she could do now.

Because of this, she warned him about these interests of hers, something that would also make it possible for both of them to have fun.

Pa!

“Hehe, that’s great.” Minos slapped one of Elen’s buttocks which were full of red marks.

“Ahhh~”

And listening to those two conversations, Elena finally recovered her breath. She turned sideways to them, using one of her hands to massage Elen’s beautiful buttocks while looking at Minos. “I just hope you two don’t forget about me…”

“I don’t intend to let you have all the fun alone!” She said, looking at the young Stuart just before she approached Elen and seductively bit one of her friend’s ears. “Don’t forget that Elen was mine long before you, Minos.”

“Hehehe, I’m not in the habit of missing opportunities like that.” Minos laughed as he felt that level 54 woman who was on top of his body sliding to his right side.

After that, Elen looked a little more seriously at the brown-haired man hugging her waist and asked. “Minos, what do you intend to do in the future? I know your talent is great, and you will leave this region one day…”

“Will you leave the Black Plain with an heir? Perhaps in Abby’s hands?”

Elen naturally worried about the future of this place she wanted to be a part of. After all, it would affect her business!

And with the intimacy she had already acquired with him, she could not help but talk about this crucial topic with him.

“Leaving the northern region is inevitable, but I will do it temporarily.”

He looked to his right side, trying to ignore Elen’s perfect body to look into her eyes. “I will still spend most of my life on the Black Plain. That’s for sure!”

“I will take care of regional stability by getting some problems out of our way, and then I will try to take care of the Black Plain until this place gets strong. Only after that will I make trips around the continent.”

Elen did not know about the Spatial Kingdom, so she thought that the Black Plain had a much more limited future than, for example, Elena thought. As such, she was already counting on Minos leaving that part of the continent.

But listening to his answer, she felt a great relief to realize that even though he was so strong, he had no desire to live in other parts of the continent.

That was great for her.

“Abby will naturally travel by my side, and as for an heir, that’s easier said than done…” He said sincerely.

“But you must not worry. I will rule the Black Plain for a long time!”

“I’m glad to hear that.”

Elena agreed with Elen as she played with Minos’ left chest. “Well, I did not doubt that…”

“Mmmm~”

…

After his earlier fun with the two Stone Island blondes, Minos left the apartment of that Black Plain Army Lieutenant and went to his office in the local government mansion.

In that location, he intended to resolve the final issues before his coronation as king, which he particularly disliked. Still, all of his advisors had urged him to perform.

The coronation was not only an important event for the leadership of a state but for the population itself that could be proud of their state, revere it, and improve their impression of their leaders.

So, the coronation ceremony had to happen!

But as much as it was a boring thing to do, at the thought that the beautiful Gloria was the one who would lead the whole process, Minos could not help but ease his bad mood for having to prepare for that.

And with that, he soon arrived at that place, where Abby, her mother, and Mia were in his office talking about the preparations.

…

“Minos, what do you think of the outfit we have prepared for you?” This young man’s mother-in-law asked him as she pointed to the outfit full of golden symbols that were on a mannequin in that office.

Hearing Nicole’s excited tone and seeing the smile on Abby’s face, Minos sighed and said. “I think it’s probably uncomfortable, but I’m glad I won’t have to go through that more than once…”

“Minos!” Abby yelled at him, patting one of her man’s hands.

“No, you’re wrong, Minos,” Nicole said in pity for that fellow who did not like that kind of occasion. “When you and Abby get married, you will also have to wear formal clothes, as well as your crown.”

The tradition of weddings and coronations in this region was quite strict. One thing could not mix with the other, with the king always having to ascend to his position before the queen.

Even if the future king and queen were married at the time of the coronation, the king was required to have the ceremony alone. Only after that did the queen ascend.

As such, even if Ruth was already there with them for their wedding, Abby could not become the queen right away.

On the other hand, the marriage of a king always involved similar etiquette to coronations. Whether she became a queen or part of the king’s harem, every woman married to someone like that had a lot of power and high status.

In the case of his marriage to Abby, this woman would become the queen and had to be crowned as well, which would require Minos to go through a similar formality as on this occasion.

“I’m sorry…” Abby was about to say something to Minos but was suddenly interrupted by him.

“I don’t like having to do that for me, but I will be pleased to do that for you at our wedding, Abby.”

The two women there looked at Minos and Abby with rosy faces, seeing the way those two behaved.

“Cough! Cough!”

“We still have to try on your dress, young lady!” Nicole said to her daughter, remembering that Abby would accompany her man for part of the coronation.

“The coronation will begin at 10 am on Sunday, and you will have to wear three dresses. One for the public coronation, one at the paying of respects, and finally the one suitable for the celebration ceremony.”

The public coronation was, as the name said, the part for the local public, in which the representative of the Spiritual Church would crown Minos after a brief speech by both parties.

Following this, protocol required the new king to parade in a chariot alongside his family down the most critical avenues of his capital city.

After this part of the ceremony would come the beginning of the royal acts, in which the king would act in his royal hall, receiving local leaders while on his throne, to issue some orders and wishes.

The last part of it was a more discreet ceremony, where key individuals from the kingdom and allies could join the king for drinks, celebrating the coronation.

And for the whole event, those who had to stand next to the king needed to wear different clothes on each occasion.

But since Abby had not yet made up her mind about her clothes, Nicole was teasing her about it.

“Young lady, you need to make up your mind soon! Even Minos, who doesn’t care about this ceremony, has already made all his choices, but you…”

Abby then pouted, ignoring her mother. “Do you want to help me choose this, my love?”

“At our wedding, you won’t be able to do that, but this time it will be okay for us to do it.” She looked at him with a cute look, begging Minos to be by her side as Nicole nagged her about it.

“All right, let me see what you have prepared.” He said, just before he started looking at the options that Nicole had ordered, which Abby soon started tasting in front of him.
