Weeks after Kendrick and Hollie's departure, Tenth Elder Klaus left Armhands headquarters, leaving only two level 115 Supres at Segiel's side to protect the guild with Minos and the others.
The Supre Leader was supposed to be pursuing the leader of the Firestone Mines, but Jabez was hiding while moving with so of his remaining allies. anwhile, the Elders and most of the guild's Supres moved against the enemy forces, so of them already stationed in newly conquered outposts.
The war of the powerful cultivators was also about conquering territory, acquiring new mines and plantations, and having the population at their disposal. In the long run, armies without territories tended to have terrible resource problems, while those with territories tended to grow stronger.
As a result, every territory conquered in the war was significant, and every week that passed with soone in control of it made its forr owners more vulnerable and the new owners stronger.
Almost half of Armhands' allied forces were busy at this very mont, while Minos and his family were still at headquarters, working daily to overco the current challenges and reach the end of the current confrontation.
...
When he left his faction's cave this morning, Minos found himself standing next to two n, both level 115 Supres.
One of them was none other than Sender, the forr mber of Jade Chainsaws, Jembei's faction, who had caused Minos a lot of trouble when he returned to the guild after his trip to the Spiritual World.
Sender had served Minos' faction very well since being subjugated by his master, having reached level 114 years ago and recently receiving his master's support to reach level 115.
The other Supre was also a mber of the Minos faction, Laerise, an alien who had joined the faction shortly before the leader of that group left to complete his mission in the Seraphim World.
The other Supres in the group were Ama and Gan, Minos' two serpent mounts.
"Let us speak to Segiel. You've just advanced a level, so it's possible she'll decide to send at least one of you into battle after you've adjusted to your current power levels," Minos said as he led the two Senior Officers to the Council.
The two aliens had their reservations about joining the war, but they also wanted to test their powers in action. So they followed Minos in silence.
Halfway to the Council, they couldn't help but smile proudly at how far they had co, seeing the stares and hearing the murmurs of the guild mbers about their progress.
Getting stronger was great. To be respected, even more so.
Even the powerful generals, who had once been so superior to them, looked at them with respect when they saw them enter the Council at Minos' side.
But even though the two of them had been the ones to make progress, half or more of the looks and comnts they passed were directed at the one responsible for that progress: Minos.
Minos was revered by nearly every mber of the guild, seen as soone who would take Armhands to the next level.
But these two also saw Minos in that special way, so they saw no problem in sharing the glory of being stronger with him.
"Commander," The two n said as they entered Segiel's office, while Minos stopped a little in front of them and introduced them to his woman.
"These three were lucky enough to advance after our last cultivation session. They are now at your disposal." Minos smiled, while Segiel couldn't help but thank him.
"Thank you for your efforts. For now, Laerise and Sender should stay at headquarters and get used to their new powers. I'll send Uvial to join our troops on the battlefield." Segiel announced as she sent her aide, who was also over there, away to give these orders to one of the other two Supres who were currently at headquarters.
Besides Gan and Ama, who were not officially mbers of the Armhands, two of the guild's Supres were at the headquarters to help Segiel protect the place.
But like Laerise and Sender, the latest woman to join Minos' harem didn't intend to keep them all together.
Soon, Laerise and Sender left to begin their adaptation training, leaving Minos and Segiel alone.
"Will there be more n reaching level 115 in the next few weeks?" She asked him, sitting worriedly on her throne.
Minos said, "Perhaps one of the Sovereigns I help will achieve sothing... But after him, there will be no one else. All those who could advance have either already advanced or are on the battlefield. Until they return, I can't promise anything."
"Then we can have one more before the worst cos."
"The worst?" His eyebrows knitted as he approached her.
She explained, "The elders have dire expectations for us in the coming weeks. A powerful group of enemies has disappeared, but neither we nor our allies are behind it."
"Do you think they'll go into hiding to cause chaos in the headquarters?" Minos understood what she ant.
"It is possible. This war has been characterized by surprise attacks. I wouldn't be surprised if they are already near Examire. But let's not alert our allies. I want the enemy to think we're in the dark, and we won't react to them the way they expect."
He opened his mouth in surprise at Segiel's audacity to risk herself in such a way. "A trap?"
"Hmm. Are you going to help with that?" She asked as she looked into her man's shining eyes.
Minos approached her and kissed her, promising to do everything in his power to keep the headquarters as untouchable as possible.
"Of course, my dear." He parted his lips from his level 116 woman's as he moved her body onto his lap, taking advantage of the fact that they were alone.
"It amazes you remain so willing, even in tis of war," she murmured in one of his ears as one of her hands touched Minos' mast.
He smiled at her as he felt this woman's buttocks. "I've always known how to separate things. There's no point in living if you can't enjoy it. So I'm not going to stop enjoying my won just because of a war. Wars happen all the ti."
She bit her lip and accepted his approach.
"You're right... I just don't know if this is the place for it."
"There's nothing wrong with it. Let's baptize the place." He laughed as he undressed his powerful lover.
