"Senior Tiolos, why don't we challenge Uzira together? By combining my abilities of clairvoyance and potential, we can survive the journey together and explore the ancestral lands of Zocarro." Minos suggested, looking seriously at the Supre beside him, his voice firm and confident.
Minos had never thought about going to Uzira. Everything he needed was in Oqia. At least that was the case now. But with the help of this man and Minos' exploring side, he was more than willing to go to Uzira.
The journey would be unbelievable. Besides, Tiolos wasn't leaving right away. He only prepared himself for the future.
Tiolos realized Minos wasn't joking and stopped, looking at the small young man curiously. "You know, this could even kill ... But do you want to co with ?"
"Senior, the journey won't be today. You'll probably be preparing for a few decades... That's enough to prepare . And you don't have to worry about protecting . If I can't protect myself, then let die. In the anti, I'll do my best to make your journey as easy as possible."
Minos showed the man one of his hands, showing he should shake it to confirm their agreent.
For a mont, Tiolos looked at Minos as if he saw one of the old Supres who had defied the Violent Sea and gone to Uzira before him, who have encouraged him to his current inclination.
'That look...' The native hesitated for a mont, recognizing Minos' uniqueness.
Minos wasn't there just to secure his life. He was there to think about the future, to look at a much greater danger than Tiolos and say: 'fuck it, I'll do it.'
"Let's say I agree. What guarantee do I have you'll help instead of hindering ? As impressive as you are, you're only a Sovereign. In only 100 years, I intend to challenge the Violent Sea. Will you be able to accompany ? What level will you be at in 100 years?"
"In 100 years, I will be above level 110, Senior."
Tiolos narrowed his eyes, finding it hard to believe. "That would be impressive. Still, I don't know if—"
"At level 110, I'll be able to steal the powers of targets stronger than and temporarily raise my cultivation to level 113."
'I forgot that detail...' Tiolos brought one of his paws to his face, unable to keep silent as he scratched himself. 'Hmm, by then he'll be about 10 tis stronger than he is now. I'll be a level 116 Supre at the most... He'll have a powerful parasite to sacrifice, and he might be able to use the Armhands' sacrifice once to reach a level even higher than mine.'
Thinking about it, Tiolos couldn't help but see the advantages of continuing the deal with Minos.
"Senior, you'll still get all the paynt I promised you earlier, and you won't have to do any more missions for except the ones my man talked to you about. anwhile, I'll be at your disposal for the next 100 years. I won't be here all the ti, but most of the ti, yes."
"Okay." Tiolos shook Minos' hand and did not think about it anymore.
He didn't doubt what a seer could achieve, and although the cultivation speed Minos had ntioned was impressive, it wasn't impossible to achieve.
Tiolos thought that even if Minos failed, he would probably be a level 109 Sovereign, which would still give him the help of a seer who could temporarily be at level 112. That alone would be worth a lot and would save him from many dangers on the way to Uzira.
Minos smiled as he ca to this agreent, quickly letting go of Tiolos' hand before advising the man. "Then my man will sign an agreent with you later, representing . Do as he suggests. Leave the city so your enemies will think you've given up on this problem."
"Will that work now that you've co to ?"
Minos laughed as he looked around. "I am a seer, senior. My n have neutralized all the enemy observers who were supposed to see us here today. But even I have my limits, so it's ti for us to leave."
"Oh? So that's it." Tiolos realized that so of his observers, who had been following him since the night before, were now unconscious in the nearby buildings.
"I hope to see you when this is all over. Good luck with your cultivation and the competitions within the guild," Tiolos murmured as he watched Minos leave, and then left as well, ready to follow his new ally's suggestion.
...
After the last eting, Minos returned to the guild, moving in secret, avoiding as much as possible to leave signs for his enemies to notice his approach to Tiolos.
Assured that everything had been done in secret, Minos returned to his daily activities at the guild, putting the matter aside to deal with the smaller matters of everyday life.
Later, he would receive confirmation from Sender of the agreent with Tiolos, assuring him the man would leave the city later that afternoon and would wait for answers from them before dealing with his enemies any ti soon.
For now, Minos and his faction would simply wait. He had no intention of leaving the guild in the short term, while his enemies didn't leave very often, even though they all had responsibilities outside of the guild.
It was almost certain that after a few months or years, all the core mbers of Jade Chainsaws would leave the headquarters at least once. So Minos didn't want to stress about it, leaving only his group in place to watch for enemies and alert Tiolos to his moving targets when the ti ca.
anwhile, on the sa day, Jade Chainsaws would discover that Tiolos had left Examire without contacting them, a sign he would not be working with them.
Nervous about the significance of the man's departure, which basically put them in a bad light even if he wasn't against them, the faction was already moving to prevent the worst they thought could happen!
