In The Adamant Land, the world destroyed after Minos and his group passed through the area about 20 years ago is no longer as it was then.In just two decades, the ancient world of the Mechanic Empire has been almost completely renovated, with old cities rebuilt from their rubble, and other areas remodeled to the best advantage of the planet's new sovereigns.
For the past 15 years, Sarah had ruled alongside her husband, George, leading those from the Spiritual World who chose to live on this planet, but also the allies from other worlds in this galaxy—those that Minos had secured before his departure.
With all this manpower, trade opportunities and more, Sarah had rebuilt this planet, turning it into a world that didn't look like it had been in a war decades ago.
It no longer resembled the world once dominated by the Mechanic Empire—that civilization based on the area's metals. Now there was more green, with large forests reclaimed in areas previously dominated by the buildings of the Mechanic Empire.
From zero inhabitants after Minos and his group passed through about 20 years ago, the planet now had 20 million inhabitants, distributed in 40 cities around its grandiose area.
But the planet's command center remained on its moon, where the grandiose Gods' Hall was built, a beautiful golden temple where, in the past, only Gods could live.
Now, 17 years after Minos' departure back to Zocarro, this place was the headquarters of the Stuart family in The Adamant Land, where Sarah, George, and others now lived.
Sarah was walking through the garden of her estate at the moment, her belly so big it looked like it was going to explode, while George, her husband, was by her side, as he did whenever he could.
As well as ruling this great world, it was also their responsibility to lead the Spiritual Church, but also the Galactic Corps, the force they had created to explore the galaxy and protect The Adamant Land and the Spiritual World.
But even though he had many duties, George had stepped away from these matters to be by Sarah's side, who was close to giving birth to their first child.
"I feel something different..." The red-haired woman, with even bigger breasts than the ones she had before, said as she strolled. "Has my time come?" She looked at her husband doubtfully, not expecting to have an unscheduled birth.
The doctors who had been accompanying her were even more renowned than Dillian. How could they get their heir's due date wrong?
But George, currently at level 94, felt something strange too and didn't think it was his wife's delivery.
Ignoring her question, he circulated his energies as he looked up at the sky of the vast universe at his disposal.
Four level 100 robots appeared around the two of them, already in combat positions.
A second later, as Sarah realized that her previous thought was not behind the strange sensation she had first noticed, while emergency signals appeared all around the golden temple.
Maisie, level 94, Margot, Gloria's mother, Sarah's grandmother, currently at level 93, appeared together close to where she was, both with worried expressions on their faces.
Then, suddenly, two meteors fell under one corner of the Gods' Hall, with Joseph Frost, Gloria's father, level 95, appearing near these newcomers, raising his weapon along with a group of 40 high-level Demigods and three Gods.
While they were all thinking that, after years of peace, they would finally face a major threat, the auras of those newcomers showed themselves, drawing attention to the fact that they couldn't possibly be from this galaxy.
Together with their powerful level 108 auras, the two opened their mouths, emitting voices already known to most of these individuals.
"Time really has passed differently for us."
"Yes. They're not as strong as we thought they should be... Have we advanced our trip too much? Hardly any of them will come with us now."
As the two people's voices stirred the hearts of the Spiritual humans in that temple, Sarah's eyes widened as she distinguished Vico and Callie.
George, Margot, Maisie, and Joseph immediately recognized these two, while they couldn't help but be shocked by their auras.
Vico and Callie's auras were even stronger than those of Minos, Ruth, and the others 17 years ago!
"Vico!"
"Callie!"
They approached the two experts as they both looked at Sarah's enormous belly.
'Looks like she's not coming with us.' The two immediately realized the problem.
If Sarah was to give birth to her first child soon, she would hardly leave The Adamant Land until her son was strong enough to lead in her absence. But that wouldn't happen for at least a century—the two figured.
"Vico and Callie, it's good to see you again," Sarah said in a breathless tone, as the robots on the outskirts lowered their weapons and made way for them.
She stopped two meters away from the two, a beautiful smile drawn on her face, curious to hear what these two had to say.
"Likewise, Your Highness." Vico and Callie greeted her with due respect, not forgetting who their leader was.
.
Maisie stepped forward and asked, "How are Minos and the others? You returned earlier than he promised. Did something go wrong?"
Sensing the concern in her voice, Vico held up one of his hands, asking them to calm down. "No, that's not the case. We came earlier than we expected, but that's because of a distortion in the time that... Anyway, unfortunately, we ignored the time passage on our way back here.
In any case, we've had great opportunities for improvement over the last few decades, which has made us move faster with our plans."
Callie complemented his speech, "As you can imagine, Minos and the others are fine, stronger than ever. As for us, we're here to give more people the chance to join us in Zocarro.
But there's no need to rush. We'll stay close to here and the Spiritual World for at least two years before we return."
With these words, Sarah invited them into the temple, where they could talk more calmly and hear about everything that had happened to their relatives over the years.
Everyone there was keen for news of Minos, so soon they were silently listening to Vico and Callie talk about his incredible journey after leaving The Adamant Land.
