Chapter 2165 Prize Time
With Minos' victory in the Continental Tournament, the Sky Whales were furious that they had lost the grand prize at the last moment of the competition, potentially losing something worth a Divine Medicine.
That was a lot to lose!
The tribe's God glared at Minos, blaming the young man for the outcome. But he wouldn't move against Emperor Stuart today.
All bettors and participants had to agree to the tournament rules before attending the event and participating in competitions or betting. Even if he was angry, he couldn't go against his promises, or else he would be in serious trouble.
He let out a loud 'huff' and turned around, then left the Spatial Kingdom intending to leave the Elves Island and return to his own territory.
Meanwhile, the others who were no longer in the dispute congratulated Minos on his victory and wished him good luck with his prize.
The prize was a collective vision of the main elves of the area, something compelling and capable of finding precious items anywhere in this vast world.
The collective vision of the elves wouldn't be good enough to discover riches in Spatial Kingdoms. Still, anything that was free in the Spiritual World could be sensed by such a thing and indicated to the tournament winner.
There was no guarantee that the place the elves indicated would contain anything like mature Divine Medicine nor that great dangers would not surround such a place. Upon hearing the words of the four remaining Gods, Minos thanked them and smiled with satisfaction at the thought that he could bring someone more powerful to his side.
So he returned to Elves Island along with the rest of the experts who had gone to stop Kendrick's fusion while the competitors were automatically teleported away from where the Secret Hunt had taken place.
Some participants were still hot-tempered because their battles had been forcibly stopped, but no one caused unnecessary trouble. As soon as they reappeared on the platform surrounded by large stands full of spectators, the last few participants lost their fighting spirit.
"Congratulations on your victory, Black Plain Empire group." A level 88 Sky Whale said as he turned his back on Sarah's group. "I hope you use your prize wisely. My tribe would do that if we were the winners."
Sarah and Kendrick said nothing to their rivals as they sat smiling, extremely pleased to have accomplished most of the missions their father had passed on to them.
Although not everything had gone according to plan, they had still done well and secured first place for Emperor Stuart!
Soon, they would join their other siblings and allies at the event to celebrate their great victory.
Amidst all this, Ruth and Isabella went to Minos' side as he made his way to the area designated for the winners of the tournament bets.
"Your Majesty Minos Stuart, please, this way." An elf spotted Minos and immediately began to show him the way.
"Congratulations. You did it, Minos." Ruth said to him as she arrived at her husband's side.
Hearing Isabella's congratulations as well, Minos thanked her for her words, support, and confidence just before they reached a place where there was a special kind of teleportation array.
The elf at the head of the group explained. "Only one person from the winning wager group can continue."
Minos stepped forward, and the elf continued. "This teleportation array will take you to a special place in my tribe. There, you will meet the seers who will give you your prize."
This glimpse into something valuable was quite complex, but it also had a slight chance of leaking pertinent information. Whenever someone won such a prize, they would later have to fight people interested in it. But this happened because the interested parties knew that sooner or later, such a person would go to a place where there was something valuable. In other words, the fights didn't happen because of a leak from the elves.
The seers who participated in the process couldn't see the vision they created together. That was something only the winner of the main wager could see.
Saying that the elves would give it to Minos was a little different from what actually happened. The elves wouldn't give him the information about the prize, but they would give him a revealing dream that only he could access.
Minos said goodbye to his wives and soon saw his surroundings change as the previous elf sent him to a sacred place on Elves Island, where he would soon find himself surrounded by high-ranking elders.
Coming upon what looked like an altar and several elves dressed as if preparing for a ritual, Minos greeted the elders there, the weakest being a level 97 Demigod and the strongest a level 99.
"Elders, thank you for this opportunity." He said as the male and female elves looked at him.
One of them came right to the point. "Your Majesty Minos Stuart, what will happen in the next few moments is quite simple. My team will do all the work. All you have to do is open your mind and relax.
You'll feel like you've fallen asleep as our powers take effect. Soon, you'll find yourself in a dream. But this will not be an ordinary dream, but a vision. You must pay attention to every possible detail. That's what will lead you to your prize."
"Okay."
"Don't worry about the secrecy of the information you see. Only you will know what it is and where it is, as long as you keep it secret." Another elf explained. "We will only guide you to help you see it a little better. We won't have any idea what it is or where to look."
Minos nodded to indicate that he understood.
"When you're ready, sit in a lotus position in the marked area and do as recommended." An old man of level 99 told Minos as he showed him where to sit.
Following the advice of the elves, Minos soon closed his eyes in his position, almost as if he was going to start meditating.
But he didn't. On the contrary, he used his powers to 'open up' to what the elders of the Elves Tribe were about to do while relaxing the muscles in his entire body.
With Minos in his position, the high-ranking elders of this tribe looked at each other and began to act, each of them sitting down in their appropriate places before beginning to unleash their powers.
Lines of energy and strange inscriptions appeared in the surroundings, quickly connecting to Minos as the powers of these elves seemed to merge perfectly.
Amid this, Minos felt what he had just heard and gradually felt as if he was falling asleep.
