Chapter 2115: Surrender

A few more months passed in Zocarro...

Today, Minos was back to his routine as a Junior Officer.

In the hours when he wasn't resting or cultivating, Minos divided his routine between working as a law enforcer in the inner city, supervising new guild members in the external city, and studying his profession as a seer.

That might not seem like much, but the job of supervising new guild members could be considered a cumulative type of work. What does that mean? Well, for every new group that a Junior Officer had the chance to supervise in the selection test, they had the right to supervise the successful ones until they became internal guild members.

That meant that someone in Minos's position could have several groups under their wing; it was like having several jobs at once.

Armhands required a Junior Officer to be responsible for at least one group of external guild members. However, one could take more than one selection test and become the supervisor of more than one group at a time.

Each group was a completed mission and credits that could be used to take time away from the guild.

But Minos didn't just do that. His work as a Law Enforcer had evolved greatly since his return from The Obsidian Shore.

He patrolled the inner city streets, preventing incidents and punishing offenders. However, he had also found another job within the Law Enforcement Hall. After becoming a Junior Officer, the alien who had invited him to the guild and who was the supervisor of the Law Enforcement Hall in the external area had been promoted to Senior Officer. With this promotion, he handed over his function of supervising the Law Enforcement Hall in the external area of the city to Minos.

Now, Minos had this additional function within the most important internal force within the guild!

As for his journey as a seer, he continued to study the profession daily and was now part of the Armhands' team of seers, who had to perform seer missions and help the guild with a certain number of predictions each year.

These predictions didn't have to be made every year. So if someone like him had to do three visions a year, he didn't have to do them all in the same year. It was quite possible that one needed or wanted to perform the services for several years at once or postpone their responsibilities to the future.

Internal guild members had many privileges and opportunities over external members. As a result, they could maneuver their roles within the guild to gain time outside the guild without getting into trouble.

Minos and Maximillian were doing this, moving up their missions by a few years so that they could soon have some time to themselves.

...

Minos was walking through the streets of the external area of the Armhands' city headquarters, side by side with Maximillian, who also played a role as an internal member of the guild in this part of the city.

"Minos, I'm not sure if I'm going to the Spiritual World with you," Maximilian said, finally revealing the doubt he had been harboring for the past few years.

Minos frowned as he looked at the man. "Have you thought this through? At your current level, you can kill our enemies without moving. We can avenge our losses, quickly change the history of the Spiritual World, and then return."

Maximilian smiled when he heard that, for that was the only tempting part of returning to the Spiritual World for him. "I know. I've thought about it a lot. I'm still not 100% sure, but there's a good chance I won't be joining your group.

I'm doing the mandatory guild missions to prepare myself in case I decide to go with you. Still, I may end up using the free time I'm creating to go into seclusion.

Let's say it takes 20 years for your party to come and go from the Spiritual World. In 20 years on Zocarro, I'll be able to reach level 105, and I'll be close to becoming the youngest Junior Officer to try to become an Intermediate Officer in the guild history.

But if I go to the Spiritual World with you, my cultivation will stagnate for those two decades... Do you understand me? Not to mention, you alone would be enough to settle the war."

"Sigh! I won't try to convince you, Maximilian. You're not wrong in your thoughts. It's just a pity that you don't want to see our companions again." Minos murmured in a disappointed tone.

Maximilian closed his eyes and commented in a pessimistic tone. "I have the impression that even if I go with you, I won't have the chance to see many of my old comrades and rivals again. I'm afraid the war has been devastating for them.

Soon, we will celebrate the 40th anniversary of our arrival here. How much time has passed for our friends and subordinates?"

Minos said nothing, aware that this was a big problem for their return to the Spiritual World. They could easily resolve any conflict that still exists on this planet. But what if no one was left to save when they got there?

'I hope it hasn't come to that.' Minos thought to himself.

'Callie has probably managed to advance a level. With someone like her and the medicines I left behind, my family should have plenty of methods to protect itself and deal with enemies.' He thought silently.

"Well, it's a shame you're considering staying, but that's okay. I'll see with the group if the others feel the same way. As dangerous as the journey to our galaxy is, the absence or presence of one or the other of the group won't change much.

Honestly, I'd prefer everyone to return with us, but I understand the side of those who prefer to stay. If I didn't have a family and people to avenge, I would honestly have the same doubts as you." Minos commented after a while, as he and Maximillian walked and the people in their path made way for them.

Minos had become famous throughout the guild and was respected even in the inner city.

Not only had he completed a historic mission, but he had also survived mid- and high-level creatures of the 11th stage while being a mere Grandmaster!

Since he was the first level 99 Grandmaster to become a Junior Officer in Armhands, everyone who knew him respected or feared him in some way.

That was especially true for the internal members who knew the terror of this former Law Enforcer of the external part of the city.

So they would go on their way until each of them found their respective groups of external members under their responsibility.
