While Minos and his wives were traveling back to Payton, in this city, Gloria's parents were currently in the imperial palace, heading for a meeting with the Emperor.
After the quick passage of that level 81 Spiritual Sage through this city to take Minos and his wives back to Vogel, the Emperor had invited these two to his residence for dinner.
Since they had no reason to refuse the invitation of this most crucial figure in the empire, someone they had known for millennia, they had followed the Emperor's arrangements and gone to meet him.
So when they arrived at the Emperor's residence, they greeted some old acquaintances and were soon led into the dining hall, where a wonderful smell wafted out.
From that place, women's voices could be heard in the distance, while the aura of this state's level 80 Spiritual Sage indicated he was not around yet.
