The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2655  End of Minos' Seclusion!

After 31 years of seclusion, Minos left his cave on the floating island of Armhands!

This afternoon, just when he had scheduled his cultivation to end, he left his family's cave alongside his wives, each of them at a new level!

Abby and Gloria were at the same level 110, while Ruth had reached level 111, one level below her husband, who was already at the middle of level 112!

The results of their seclusion for over 30 years were much more significant than they had initially expected, with each of them taking great advantage of the possibility of using the temporal distortion of Minos' powers to their advantage.

"Are our relatives arriving today?" Abby asked in an excited tone, aware that Minos had predicted the future and defined, from that, when the end of their seclusion would be.

"Hmm, they should arrive in Examire today." Minos said with a smile on his face, making his way towards the headquarters exit.

"General Minos, it's good to see you again," said one Officer positioned around the guild exit. "Going into the city?"

"Yes, I have a group of companions coming here. I'll pick them up." Minos said to the men there, clarifying that the people who would soon come to this place were his companions.

Everyone in this post understood the message, becoming more attentive to their words and behavior from now on.

Among those guards was a member of Minos' faction, whom Ruth ordered to send a message to their relatives.

Kendrick and the others were taking care of family and guild matters for them, so they were certainly in the inner city area.

The four of them easily left the headquarters, each of them already having very good positions in the guild to easily come and go.

They descended from the island to Examire by the instant transport elevator, soon arriving at the entrance area of Armhands, where a Senior Officer was standing guard on the surface of the city.

"Generals." The man on guard in the area stood up when he saw Minos and Abby, also greeting Senior Officers Ruth and Gloria.

Ruth and Gloria were not yet as senior as their colleagues. But that wasn't a problem for them. They were both under Minos' responsibility in relation to the expansionist wing of the guild, so they could come and go with him wherever he decided.

Minos and his women merely nodded to the man, before heading off through the city, passing busy streets where several mid- and high-ranking Sovereigns greeted them on their way to one of the city's entrances.

After the battle in defense of Examire and Armhands, the local leaders had learned about Minos and his family, making them famous in the city. Several local aliens had been saved by their strategy and now respected them greatly.

The four of them arrived at the spot where Minos stopped in front of a lawn and plastered a big smile on his face. "They'll be here in another minute."

Ruth, Abby and Gloria felt their hearts beating faster as they looked at the woods in the distance, especially the sky, where they imagined the group led by Vico and Callie would come from.

"Unfortunately, Rowan and Sarah didn't come with them," Minos said Ruth and Gloria, the mothers of those two.

They both looked at him, losing parts of the smiles.

He said, "Let's wait and hear from them. I think there's a good reason for that." Minos felt that this meeting would be positive, so he didn't worry about the possibilities behind his children not coming.

Soon after he spoke and the two women turned their gazes forward again, a group of 26 individuals appeared on the horizon.

The four humans in front of this Examire entrance soon spotted some familiar faces, not only Vico and Callie but also Oswald, Zoe, Talia, Aurae, Eliot, Nicole, Starclaw, Angelica, in short, all of their oldest companions in the Spiritual World.

Ruth and Gloria's parents weren't there, something they hadn't expected. This made them theorize about what could be behind the absence of their parents and their children in this group.

Vico and Callie spotted Minos and those women and narrowed their eyes, looking in particular at Minos, who now had a powerful level 112 aura!

Minos had improved an incredible five levels since the last time they had seen each other!

'Unbelievable! His cultivation speed doesn't seem to slow down, even at the high level of the 12th stage!' Vico considered in amazement.

But he didn't know that, at the moment, the biological age of Minos' body had already exceeded 2,000 years, even though he had in fact only experienced just over a thousand years.

With his divine ability, he had been using it to speed up his cultivation speed while consuming his vitality.

This was the same situation as his wives, who had improved from having experienced his powers while in seclusion.

While these two were thinking about the cultivation prowess of Minos and those women, the members of their group couldn't help but look at him with joy in their eyes.

Apart from the four non-natives of the Spiritual World, everyone there smiled happily, identifying Minos, even with all the changes he had gone through.

Vico and Callie had also recognized him, since no other would have been so close to Ruth, Gloria, and Abby. But Minos' appearance was now totally different from before, with long white hair, golden eyes and six wings gathered on his back.

His body size was also surprising, and his aura no longer resembled that of a human.

The level 105 dragon in the group realized this easily as he narrowed his eyes, feeling even more inferior to Minos than when they were in the Spiritual World. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

As for the others, they were full of doubts, partly feeling strange that Minos had changed so much, but certain that it was him and that he hadn't stopped being the one they knew.

Minos stepped forward when he saw the group land a few meters away from them, opening his hands as he smiled. "Everyone, welcome to Examire. I'm sure you have a lot of questions—we do too. But we'll talk more when we join the guild. For now, come with me. I'd like to register you in Armhands."

With the words of Minos, who still had the same voice as before, with only minor differences related to his power, the group followed behind him, heading for the entrance to the guild.

Even though he had asked them to keep their questions to themselves, Oswald couldn't help but stand next to his grandson and speak to Minos.

"How are the children? Has anything gone wrong since Vico and Callie left?"

Vico and Callie, as well as Aurae and Cykog, stood closer to Minos and his wives as they made their way to the guild.
