The Mino Clan migrated to this universe just like the other Clans had. Only Dyon's mortal world were true natives of this universe.
While the Ragnor Clan controlled 29 universes, the Pakal Clan controlled 26, and the Uidah Clan controlled 24, there still remained 21 universes in the Celestial Deer Quadrant that were seemingly 'unclaid'.
One had to also rember that Dyon's ho universe wasn't adjacent to just the Uidah Universe, it was also adjacent to the Chaos Universe, the forr ho of the elves.
Why was this important? Simply put, the gifts the Shruti Clan left for the Mino Clan in compensation also involved the reason Saru and her clansn decided to occupy Planet Mino instead of any of the other four planets available to them.
The Shruti Clan was able to decipher important ancient ruins left for the Mino Clan by their ancestors, ruins they had long forgotten the aning of.
This was all to say that this war was just a first step for the Mino Clan. If they took this step appropriately, becoming the fourth big shot of the Celestial Deer Quadrant wouldn't be impossible.
However, in their pursuit of this greater goal, they had t a seemingly insurmountable mountain and their King wasn't taking it so well.
...
"You were right." Dyon spoke, looking off into the distance.
Clara looked at the side of her husband's face, still feeling uneasy on the inside. She could tell sothing had changed, and she didn't think that she liked it.
From the last ti she saw Dyon to now, it felt like he had suddenly beco his stoic, emotionless father. But, Clara much preferred the carefree, goofy Dyon who could be arrogant yet caring at the sa ti.
Although Clara saw General Sacharro like an Uncle – in fact, that's exactly what he was to her – she loved Dyon for very different reasons.
"So survived. I'm not sure how long it will take to find them, though… My divine sense can't reach out so far."
"…" Clara knew that she should be happy, but she had little to no reaction to Dyon's words.
Dyon sent a sideways glance over. "What are you pouting about? I'm just fine, aren't I?"
"You're not your dad, idiot." Clara turned away, gliding off into the distance with Little Wind flying behind her. "I'll go and find them. You still have so cocky celestial beasts to deal with."
Dyon blinked, watching his wife almost swim through the air.
After a pause, he burst into a fit of laughter before coughing up another few mouthfuls of blood.
"Fuckin hell."

"Aren't you going to help your planet? It's being attacked." Giralda suddenly as the demon sage tower glided over and entered the gate that resided at Belmont Lake's center.
She wore a light green dress, sitting on a comfortable couch with her little boy in her lap.
Dyon emotionlessly looked over toward the Belmont Holy Land.
In truth, he didn't have any love lost with the martial world half of Earth. Even King Belmont who was relatively kindhearted in comparison to the rest still dared to test whether or not he was worthy of Madeleine.
Dyon didn't care whether or not it was for the sake of so "greater good". Elders of the martial world always seed to want to find every reason other than themselves for why things weren't going great.
Instead of figuring out how he himself could get more powerful, he was thinking of ways to marry Madeleine into his family for the sake of her primordial yin, regardless of her feelings.
In the end, Dyon turned out to be the far better candidate in comparison to Lionel Belmont, but what if he hadn't been? Wouldn't that supposedly kindhearted King Belmont have turned against him?
The whole thing disgusted him.
As for the fact King Belmont housed him while he was unconscious, so what? That was the least he could do after he saved their asses.
All of this said, Dyon wasn't ignoring them just because of past anger.
"I'm injured and have less than 10% of my peak capabilities. Right now, I wouldn't be able to beat the top generals of the attacking army."
With his divine sense, there was nothing hidden for Dyon. Those below weren't even qualified to notice that he had investigated them.
"Plus, I have other matters to attend to. The campaign months for Soul Rend Quadrant are in just a few days."
Of course, there were other reasons Dyon wanted to ignore this situation for now. But, this was the most important point.
Before Dyon entered the Mystical World, there was about half a year until the campaign months of Soul Rend Quadrant. Although they had lowered the barrier to the essence level, there was no way the weak 98th quadrant could defend against true geniuses without him.
Now that almost five months had passed, three of which he spent consolidating his soul, the ti was rapidly coming up. Plus, the only way for him to heal himself in ti was using the life energy dense atmosphere of the Mystical World.
"I see…" Giralda said softly. "I didn't say this to make you feel guilty, I just didn't want you to think that you had to rush off to my husband. and Little Ryuu have waited for a long ti, we can wait a little longer if you have important things to handle."
"Ryuu, huh…" Dyon turned back to glance at the little boy who had never said a word for as long as Dyon had known him.
"We can keep Giralda and Little Ryuu entertained." Bella said with a bright smile, pinching the little boy's cheeks along with Mia.
The two twin blue-eyed sisters had switched out of their nunnery robes, wearing beautiful, flowing dresses that Clara had made for them.
Back when their hair had been hidden under their head coverings, Dyon had assud they were blond. But, they were actually a dense black at the top that faded away into a striking white nearer its edges.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ Dyon smiled. "No worries. This is what I'd do anyway. But…"
Giralda shook her head, emitting a pride that made Dyon raise an eyebrow. "Thank you. I will repay you one day."
Dyon wanted to tell her not to worry about it, but sothing about the look in Giralda's eyes told him that his words would be useless.
"Just who are you?..." He couldn't help but ask.
The dignity Giralda exuded was not normal by any stretch of the imagination.
Hearing Dyon's question, Giralda smiled as her appearance began to change.
Her skin beca smoother, her brown eyes flickered with a crystalline light even as her long black hair shimred.
In a mont, her eyes beca like two shining gems, translucent crystals shimring in pinks and pale lavender. Her hair thinned, seemingly becoming a bright white before being overwheld by beautiful light blues and soothing cherry reds.
In that instant, she beca one of the most beautiful won Dyon had ever seen, yet, sohow, she seed like a beast just mont away from snapping its leash. The pressure she exuded made Dyon realize in that mont… In the state he was in… He had no chance of defeating her.
"Of this generation, I'm the eldest princess of the Agios Clan." She said with a smile. "You probably don't know us by that na, though. But, you have heard of the Crystal Dragon Clan, right?"
