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 theirpanions.


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


    Meanwhile, the Stuart family of Zocarro were all on apletely higher level of power than the neers to the had previously imagined.


    But after the first few days in the guild, with many conversations and opportunities to listen to the experiences of theirpanions, each one learned enough as they adapted to the rules of the guild. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Soon Callie and Vico would go into seclusion with ns not to leave the ce 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 Worldst 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 neers to Zocarro would go in search of valuable merit points to advance to better positions within the guild.


    As they had all been epted into Minos'' faction, the road ahead wouldn''t be soplicated 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, particrly 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 gxy of The Adamant Land and the two from The Enchanted Realm, progressed from Recruits to Elite Soldiers.


    No one had be 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 be 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 currentpetition 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 avable 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''smand.

    Minos and his wives hadn''t cultivated in seclusion for most of this period, having been avable to theirpanions and only had short cultivation sessions separately.


    Meanwhile, they were graduallypleting their travel ns to Uzira!


    ...


    In the faction''s cave, Minos had a strange-looking man with one red eye and one ck eye, gray, green and ck 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 thest 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 rtionship between him and that creatureing 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 toe 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 form, using a corpse, some of the ck 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 ck liquid, while his innate powers hadrgely 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 be 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 ourpanions."


    "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."
