Chapter 1863 A Warm Start to the Journey (*) "Welcome to Solaris Transportation. Where would you like to go today?" A woman dressed in the uniform of one of the transportation companies operating in this port asked Minos and Emlyn politely at a counter in the local port. Hearing this, Minos came straight to the point. "Lusmait." "Two tickets to Lusmait... We have two schedules for this trip, sir. One ship leaves in 45 minutes but has only first-class flats. Another ship leaves in 8 hours, and we have 1st, 2nd, and 3rd class rooms. Which do you prefer?" She said while looking at a screen that displayed this information. Minos wanted to reach his destination as soon as possible, so he said. "Let's go on the first ship that leaves." "OK, 2 tickets to Lusmait in 1st class on ship 666. That will cost a thousand high-grade crystals." She said, revealing a rather high cost for a trip that would take less than a week by ship. In any case, it was a lot less expensive than a yacht, and since the ships of this company had Demigods in charge, Minos and Emlyn would hardly have to worry about problems in the middle of the trip. He paid for the crystals to be serviced and soon received his and Emlyn's tickets. With those tickets in hand, the two followed the signs on the outskirts of the port and quickly made their way to ship 666, which was already preparing to leave. As they approached the ship, the two realized it was a low-level grade-4 ship. But its crew was mostly mid- and high-level Sages, with a small group of level 90 Demigods in command. That was a pretty good crew for what was basically the calmest sea in the world and on a voyage that would take a week. Minos didn't think the price he'd paid was too bad, and soon he and Emlyn were at the entrance to the first-class section of the ship, from where they soon came to a large entrance hall where many of the ship's personnel were profiled, waiting for those they would serve in the coming days. Emlyn observed the luxury and care of the people in this area, remembering how different things were for lower-level beings. When she and her late husband had tried to leave the Continent of Beasts decades ago, when they were only Spiritual Kings, they could only afford low-level ships that looked like fishing boats. Entering this place today made her think back to that day and realize how much she had changed since then. As much as it was obvious from her strength since she was always in the Spatial Kingdom or surrounded by stronger and stronger friends or enemies, she had gotten used to having more or less the same relevance and roles. Unlike in her tribe, where one grew stronger, fought less, and became more important within the tribe, things were different in the Black Plain Empire, which grew stronger and stronger. Until now, Emlyn had not stopped thinking about her current situation. But when she saw this place of luxury and how she was treated like an expert on this boat, she clenched her fists and realized that she had become so great that she could be appointed as an elder of her tribe. 'Ah, we were so weak back there... I know if you were here, dear, you would be happy for me. Then I will live for both of us!' Emlyn loved her husband. But after decades of his death, that feeling had changed and was no longer romantic but more like the memory of a loved one. Knowing that Minos had recently 'avenged' her and her husband, she felt free from some old obligations, and as she looked at the human beside her, she couldn't help but smile. "Thank you for everything, Minos. You've given me a really interesting and exciting life." She said to her companion before stopping in front of the apartment they would be staying in for the next week. Hearing that, as she turned the door handle in front of her, Minos smiled at her and said. "Don't say that. We are old friends. We fought together to get here." As they entered the 50 square meter apartment, they both stopped at the door, Minos enjoying the view from there while Emlyn looked at him with something in mind. She clenched her fists tighter and then stepped forward to Minos and hugged him. "Still, I never got the chance to thank you properly. Please let me do this for you." Upon hearing this and feeling Emlyn's fingers move through his clothing, Minos' expression changed as he felt his companion's body go 'up in flames.' He could feel Emlyn using her charm ability, but he didn't stop her, letting her do what she had planned while keeping a curious expression on his face. In the blink of an eye, Emlyn was kneeling in front of Minos without the black fur coat over her body. Minos could see Emlyn's medium-sized breasts and her pale skin, which in no way gave away that she was a beast. Meanwhile, Minos was already without underwear while his little brother was standing, ready for even the bloodiest battles. While Emlyn had both hands on Minos' baseball bat, she ran her pink tongue down the length of that fiery piece of flesh, eyes closed, smelling his masculine scent. She hadn't done this in decades, and as she 'tasted' what she was doing, Emlyn couldn't help but feel wet and wanted to do much more than she had planned. At that moment, Minos suddenly felt a warm, soft sensation surrounding his little brother. He ran a hand through Emlyn's hair and watched as she put more than half the length of his baseball bat in her mouth. Feeling the delicious sensation of Emlyn's mouth and throat, Minos felt a more intense urge and quickly removed his clothes from his upper body. In an instant, he and Emlyn were completely naked, looking at each other with the same intention, wanting to 'consume' each other. 'Ah, this trip is going to be really interesting...' Minos thought to himself before he looked into his partner's eyes and moved, taking her into his arms. Then he carried her to the bed...
