Four days later...
After leaving that previous village, Minos and Gloria traveled without stopping at other human settlements, having flown most of the time and only stopping to camp in the middle of forest regions.
Other than that, the two were interacting normally, with young Stuart doing what he could to improve his position. At the same time, Gloria enjoyed traveling with someone who did not seem to be afraid of her.
As for dangers or incidents on their journey, they had even come across groups of bandits twice. But upon realizing Gloria's level, some of the outlaws had even died of fear!
Apart from those who had crapped themselves before trying to escape, the spiritual beasts that had accompanied Minos this far had accomplished the task of exterminating them.
And, of course, Minos once again had not put his identity at risk; As for Gloria, who had waited to see what he would do, had been disappointed not to have seen him in action.
