The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2656  Welcome to the Guild

Minos looked at his grandfather, who was currently at level 105, the same as the dragon Cykog, one level below the strongest of the Spiritual World natives in this group, Aurae, level 106.

"They're fine. I've been in seclusion for three decades and only came out of my cave this afternoon. So I don't know exactly how they're doing, but they're certainly fine. The war that started before Vico and Callie left is over, with the guild having gained a lot since then."

"Now our faction even has Supremes at our disposal." Abby added as she looked at the two level 109 Sovereigns.

"Incredible! I didn't think things would have changed so much over the years!" Callie said, as she couldn't help imagining what those years must have been like.

As she felt the levels of her companions, she didn't know if it had been good or bad for her and Vico to have been off the planet during that period.

While on the one hand it would have been opportune for them to have been on Zocarro during that period, on the other hand, it would have been very dangerous. Opportunities didn't come without proportionate risks!

"Sigh! That's good to hear. Rowan and Sarah didn't come because they had children of their own," Oswald said as he looked at Minos with a smile. "You now have two grandchildren, haha. Kyla's and Rowan's son is called Raiden, and George's and Sarah's son is called Noah."

Minos almost stopped moving when he heard this, surprised by the news.

Gloria and Ruth were even happier than he was to hear it, curious about their first grandchildren.

But beyond curiosity, happiness for their children, they understood why Rowan and Sarah hadn't come, and imagined that this was also the reason for their parents not being in the group.

"Is that why they didn't come with you?" Minos asked his grandfather.

"Yes, many family members were hesitant to come to Zocarro with us and leave the little ones without support. They have decided that they will only come here when Noah and Raiden can protect themselves with their own powers." Oswald explained.

"That's good." Gloria didn't see a problem, even if it meant it would take longer for her to see her grandson. "By the way, is the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land going well?"

Oswald shook his head positively. "Yes, both worlds are peaceful, growing and recovering what was lost in the War of the Worlds... One day, I will return to see what fate will befall them."

They entered the guild, arriving at the area where Armhands' inner members were already waiting, as Minos had ordered when he went into seclusion.

"Everyone, take my companions' admission test and register them as Recruits. When they're ready, take them to my office in the Council area." Minos ordered the Officers over there.

"Yes, General Minos." The men said as they gestured at length, drawing the attention of Vico and Callie, but also of the others.

Vico asked. "General?"

"A lot of things have changed since you left. You'll need to take a day or two to get up to speed with everything," Ruth said quietly to Vico and Callie.

Minos ordered the two of them. "While they take their test and register with the guild, you two should go to the Records Hall and regularize your positions in the guild. We'll talk things over when everyone's settled."

The two nodded as they headed towards the city.

Minos stayed behind for another minute with his women, looking at his staff. He said, "We'll see later. For now, follow the Officers' instructions and then we'll all get together to talk."

The group didn't cause problems, accepting the situation, even though they were all curious about different subjects.

Minos and his wives left the group behind, heading for the guild Council, where the rest of the faction should have already received their announcements and be waiting for them. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

...

Soon, Minos and his wives were at their residence at the Council, where Kendrick, Lily, Hollie, and the other important members of the faction were also already gathered in the area.

All of them had improved their cultivation once in the last few decades, reaching levels 107, 108 and 109. But even the robot Otis had improved his cultivation and reached level 110, the same level as four of the humans in the group.

Now over 15 people were in the hall of Minos' residence, talking in loud, cheerful voices, having already heard from him and his wives about the group's arrival.

Kendrick and his sisters were overjoyed to discover that Rowan was already a father, and that Sarah had recently given birth to her first heir. They couldn't help but be curious about their home planet, looking forward to the day when they would see those two again.

They waited in this residence while they chatted amongst themselves, with Callie and Vico soon joining the group and hearing from some of their companions about things that had happened over the last few decades.

The war against Firestone Mines had been dangerous, and the guild had struggled, despite all the help Minos and Abby had provided.

Vico took the opportunity before the conversation with the newcomers from the Spiritual World and passed Minos the item containing the curse that he had brought here.

"As you asked, here is that old curse from Albano," this blond man said as he passed the sphere where that being of absolute level 99 was.

Minos took the item and looked at the creature inside. He thanked Vico and mentally spoke to the curse. 'It's not interesting for you to leave this artifact just yet. But in no more than three days, I'll help you get a body that's resistant to a place other than the one that's been your home for so long. It's possible that you'll even be stronger after that.'

'Then I'll look forward to it,' said the creature to Minos, having realized that the place he was in held many opportunities for him.

As Minos smiled at Albano's curse, Oswald's group finally joined them as they entered that Council estate!

He raised his glass of drink as some of his family reunited, hugging and greeting each other, already offering drinks to the newcomers.

"My friends, we are reunited after years of separation..." Minos began.
