Hearing Lulu's questioning, Minos sighed and said. "If I cannot intervene on behalf of your alliance against the Flaming Empire, who will do it? If I don't solve the problems on the Black Plain, we run the risk that there will be no one to maintain diplomacy between the two sides."
"Then, this is also for the sake of your states and peace!"
"Tsk!"
"You really are shameless..." Lulu turned her back on Minos, sensing that he was making excuses.
"Still, how will the situation of the Black Plain and our states look?" Rosser's representative asked Minos.
This sovereign then said. "I have become the master of the Gray Clouds Sect, but I don't have all the powers yet. It will take three years before I take over that organization completely. But, moreover, even when that happens, I will only need to follow certain rules of the Flaming Empire when I act as sect master or act within that state."
"But there are ways we can escape those responsibilities."
