The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2659  Promise Kept

A while after the arrival of Callie and Vico's group, the 26 individuals who had met or re-met Minos that day would adapt and learn about the changes in the guild or their companions.

For Vico and Callie, Armhands currently had a new hierarchy, with Minos' faction being the most influential, while their companions were all in good positions within the guild.

Meanwhile, the Stuart family of Zocarro were all on a completely higher level of power than the newcomers to the planet had previously imagined.

But after the first few days in the guild, with many conversations and opportunities to listen to the experiences of their companions, each one learned enough as they adapted to the rules of the guild.

Soon Callie and Vico would go into seclusion with plans not to leave the place where they would cultivate from then on until Minos and his group left for Uzira.

The rest of the team would engage with their positions as Recruits.

Unlike those who came with Minos from the Spiritual World last time, who had to worry about enemies within the guild and so couldn't grow their ranks quickly, the current group didn't have to worry about the same things.

As soon as they had adapted to the conditions of the guild and its current possibilities, each of the 24 newcomers to Zocarro would go in search of valuable merit points to advance to better positions within the guild.

As they had all been accepted into Minos' faction, the road ahead wouldn't be so complicated for any of them!

...

In the blink of an eye, 7 years have passed since Vico, and Callie returned to Armhands.

Some members of the group, particularly the weaker ones, have gotten new chances to improve their cultivations. The stronger ones have improved a lot, but they were already at levels that advancement couldn't happen so easily.

As none of them had had the option of leaving the headquarters in those years, they hadn't been able to get enemies for Minos to transfer the cultivation to them. The strongest failed to advance in level during this period and needed more time working for the guild.

But the strongest, Cykog, Aurae, Julian the Gorgon, the two individuals from the galaxy of The Adamant Land and the two from The Enchanted Realm, progressed from Recruits to Elite Soldiers.

No one had become a Junior Officer yet, but that could happen at any time.

The rest of the group were now all Rank-and-File Soldiers, with some of the stronger ones close to being promoted to Elite Soldiers.

Although they had everything to grow stronger without too much difficulty, the guild's current era of stability made promotions difficult. Few high-ranking members died or grew stronger quickly, as had happened in the era of Minos and his wives.

In this more stable environment, growing up in Armhands had become more difficult.

Even with all the expansions the guild was carrying out because of the new post-war territories, with the new men who had also joined during this period, the current competition was not small.

But no one was rushing or disappointed with their progress. Everything was going well for the group, while Minos and his wives were available to help with advice and resources.

Amid this, some members of this group were slowly getting involved in more relevant matters, joining the expansion group, led by Minos, or the Law Enforcement Hall, under Kendrick's command.

Minos and his wives hadn't cultivated in seclusion for most of this period, having been available to their companions and only had short cultivation sessions separately. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Meanwhile, they were gradually completing their travel plans to Uzira!

...

In the faction's cave, Minos had a strange-looking man with one red eye and one black eye, gray, green and black hair, and skin with different shades on each limb of his body.

With a cultivation level of 101, the strange-looking being was sitting in a lotus position, receiving help from Minos and Abby for the last time.

With Minos sitting in front of him and Abby sitting behind him, this being felt his aura finally stabilize at a level where he no longer seemed to be an invading part of that body, but the actual owner of it.

Abby sighed as she took her hands off the creature, while Minos opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face.

After a long time since his agreement with Albano's curse, he had finally kept his promise. He felt it just before he opened his eyes, with the relationship between him and that creature coming to an end.

The curse of Albano felt it amid the joy of finally, after millions of years of existence, having a body and the freedom to come and go.

"Minos and Abby, thank you for what you've done for me. I will be eternally grateful," he said in his strange voice, which mixed the tones of two different creatures.

For the past seven years, Minos and Abby had been struggling to find a safe way for this creature to live without their continued help. After many mistakes, they came up with the current formula, using a corpse, some of the black liquid and the soul of the curse, sealed in the body with Minos' powers.

He was 100% stable and rational, without the bloodlust of corpses affected by too much of the black liquid, while his innate powers had largely been preserved.

Minos stood up and said, "Moros, give your loyalty to Kendrick and the others. From now on, you must follow them if you want to repay the opportunity we've given you.

But before that, focus on strengthening yourself. Given your previous limitations, you've lost a lot of cultivation time. But you can quickly improve that at Armhands."

"I'll certainly do that." he rose from his seat, already having the symbol of a serpent on his forehead, having years ago made his entry into Armhands official.

"Go ahead. Use your freedom and enjoy your life." Minos released him, watching the individual leave while he and Abby stayed behind, satisfied with their work.

"He's only at level 101, but he'll soon become a level 105 cultivator," Minos said to Abby. "With a body that once belonged to someone at level 114, his cultivation speed will be far superior to that of all our companions."

"That's good. Kendrick will put him to good use in the future." Abby walked out of their cave, while Minos smiled at the thought of the future.

"Hmm, let's go talk to Segiel. There's a letter from Tiolos for us."
