A few days later...
After waiting anxiously for Harold's visit, Minos had his wait ended when Emperor Edwardstone appeared in Dry City to begin the mission to search for the enemy.
When he appeared in Dry City through a wormhole, Harold wasted no time and soon had Minos accompany him, fearful that every second lost would mean higher risks for him.
He had set up some distractions and traps to fool the Flower Kingdom observers, who religiously watched his movements.
But there was no way he could be sure that his actions would delay or even prevent his opponents from finding out about his little trip.
Harold was afraid of being caught by a representative of the woman he had won a bet on in the past. Such a bet said that even if he won, he could not leave the Flaming Empire for an extended time. And if he failed to do so, he would have to marry that person capable of 'devouring' testicles with her innate reproductive ability.
