In the three years since the agreent with Tiolos, Minos had talked to his family about his plans to go to Uzira with Tiolos. Obviously, he didn't want to make this journey alone, for in a century—as the Supre had promised—they should be much stronger than they were now.
Minos had already planned his departure in 100 years, but he hadn't considered that he would be away from his family on this journey. Therefore, Abby and the others saw no problem with his plan and were already preparing for such a future.
Their situation in the guild was already good, so in 100 years, it should be better for them to think about such a match.
Not only that, but as far as Minos knew, so elders of Armhands had interests in Uzira, so he could take his family to the primordial continent for a mission, not just a personal trip.
Thus, the next few months in the guild would be peaceful for Minos and his family, as the first batch of faction mbers grew in power and position within the guild.
The three level 107 Junior Officers who had gone to the Spiritual World with Minos had since advanced to level 108, with two of them becoming Interdiate Officers.
anwhile, Abby was promoted to Interdiate Officer. Thereafter, Minos appointed her as the supervisor of the Law Enforcent Hall.
As soon as she began her duties in the hall, Kendrick beca a Junior Officer, the first of the seven people Minos brought into the guild from The Enchanted Realm who hadn't yet been promoted to internal Armhands.
Kendrick was followed by Gloria and Grisdi as Junior Officers, and about a year after the death of the leader of Jade Chainsaws, Lily and Hollie were also promoted.
By this ti, Vico and Callie were already Junior Officers, and both managed to advance once during this ti, reaching level 106.
Lily and Hollie also advanced during this ti, with the youngest reaching level 104 and the oldest level 105.
Minos was already nearing the peak of level 105, a situation similar to Kendrick's, and wanted to stay in the guild to help his family stabilize in their new positions until he reached level 106.
anwhile, the faction's numbers were skyrocketing!
...
In the faction cave of Minos' group, the flow of people coming and going, or just standing there training and ditating, dealing with faction matters, was greater than ever.
At least 15 faction mbers were always there during the day, with the number doubling at peak tis.
With a current mbership of 102, the faction was now the most prominent group in the guild, with high expectations for the future.
With 67 internal mbers and 35 external mbers, the faction currently had 8 Senior Officers, 22 Interdiate Officers, and 37 Junior Officers.
With cultivators between levels 104 and 114, this was the strongest faction outside of the guild council!
Besides these numbers, the faction also currently had 46 high-level 11th stage corpses, all of which were stored in the black urns that adorned the large cave where a large group was currently cultivating.
Rhett was about to leave this place and return to the guild's inner area, where he had so business to attend to.
Having advanced to level 110 and beco a Senior Officer in the past few months, Rhett was now one of the leading figures in Minos' group.
Unlike the two giants and Sender, who were powerful in cultivation and were already senior officers, Rhett was a strategist, soone who would be difficult to replace and who was more than just a guard, like those three guys who were the strongest in the faction, below Minos of course.
Following the path between the cave and the guild's interior, Minos' alien acquaintance soon made his way up the front steps of the Law Enforcent Hall headquarters.
As he passed by, he spotted Maximillian, who had recently advanced to level 109 and was now a senior officer.
Minos had kept his promise and helped the man with his promotion about a year and a half ago.
Seeing Rhett on his way, Maximilian greeted his old guild superior from his days as an external mber.
"Officer, how are you?" Maximilian asked, his expression not as good as he would have liked.
His promotion had been sothing he had dread of for decades, but once he had gotten it, he realized what a big problem it had been.
Being a high-ranking mber of the guild, as he was now, amid a conflict with another force as powerful as Armhands was no good at all!
In the past few months, Maximilian had been sent on three war missions. On each of these missions, he had risked his life, gained very little, and lost a total of nine months of his ti.
Now he didn't know if his hierarchical advancent had been for the best!
Rhett smiled bitterly as he looked at Maximillian with sharp eyes, knowing that Minos had put this human in such a position to punish him.
That wasn't the case for Rhett, however, as the group needed several well-placed mbers in the guild. Still, Rhett knew what Maximillian had gone through in those months.
Fortunately, I'm stronger and have more experience in Zocarro.
'I'm doing well. Soon I'll go to the battlefield at the Lonely Oasis. I heard you were there recently. How are the troops?' Rhett asked.
Maximilian's expression changed, mories of deadly battles flashed through his mind. "Not too well, I'd say. Be careful out there, Officer. I've seen high-ranking Sovereigns killed like pigs in battle. I earned this scar that day." He pointed to the slight cut on his left cheek.
"I see... Thanks for the tip." Rhett walked on, wanting to go to Minos' office.
But Maximilian asked him a question before he was far enough away. "And Minos? How is he?"
Having last spoken to Minos over a year ago, Maximillian was curious about his next steps.
"He is well. Soon he'll finish a new plan... Anyway, you'll know when it's ti."
