Arriving at the inner Challenge Arena, Minos and Diazzos soon found themselves on one of the battlegrounds in the area.

There were always creatures around the guild's inner and outer Challenge Arenas. As a result, when Minos and Diazzos entered one of the platforms, the seats in that area were quickly filled to 50% of their total capacity.

Ruth and Minos' allied judge sat in the stands with some of the Intermediate Officers who had gone to arrest the two judges accused of corruption.

Soon, the man who had brought them to this place stood in the middle of the stage and said. "Diazzos, this could be a fight to the death for you. Are you sure you want to do this?"

When one guild member challenged another of equal rank, such as two Junior Officer judges, the challenge lasted until one was unconscious or unable to continue. Neither side could kill the other, and the referee would have to intervene if either's life was in danger.

However, if a lower-ranked guild member challenged a higher-ranked one, the higher-ranked one had the right to kill their opponent.

Although Diazzos and Minos had the same rank as Junior Officers, they had completely different positions within the Law Enforcement Hall. Minos was Diazzos' superior, so Diazzos owed him obedience.

When Diazzos challenged Minos, he naturally put himself in a position where he had to win to stay alive.

Armhands did not accept insubordination in their members. The only way to do what Diazzos was doing and stay alive was to issue a challenge in which the one behind the challenge had the opportunity to kill the challenged person.

Only by defeating the challenged side and proving yourself to be the strongest could you go against the decisions of someone higher up in that place!

If one couldn't achieve victory, the challenged side was obligated to kill the challenger for their insolence!

"I'm sure," Diazzos said with an ugly look on his face, glaring at Minos full of hatred.

He thought it was extremely unfair that a mere Grandmaster should lead the Law Enforcement Hall when someone like him, who had been in the guild for over 500 years, was up for the job.

Such a being understood that Minos had earned merits that put him in such a position. Still, Diazzos sincerely felt that one had to have a minimum level to take on certain positions in the guild.

"I'm going to put you in your place, Minos. You shouldn't lead anything until you become a real Sovereign!" He said to his opponent.

"You are a cheeky bastard," Minos commented as he looked into the eyes of this winged creature, which had a humanoid body, was very muscular, had dark green scales, and had the head of an alligator. "It is not your job to define the supervisory position of our post. You only have to follow the orders of your superiors and the internal rules of the hall.

Since you don't understand the guild rules even after centuries of service, let me relieve you of the burden of following the laws."

"Tsk! That's not for you to decide!"

The level 106 Intermediate Officer listened to their comments and confirmed that the challenger had no intention of backing down and accepting his punishment.

"Since both parties wish to proceed with the challenge, begin! You have as much time as you need to settle your affairs!" This individual said as he left the battlefield and quickly activated the barrier of the platform to prevent either of the two opponents from leaving the area.

As he did so, Diazzos didn't hesitate to leap towards Minos, using one of his arms to cut through the space in front of him.

At the same time, a semi-transparent green paw, similar to Diazzos' body part, just as muscular and with large claws, appeared on Minos' back and attacked him quickly and decisively.

Minos felt this energy attack form behind him and immediately activated the Indestructible Body simultaneously as Nullification.

Diazzos' attack lost much of its power before it even reached Minos' body, but it didn't disappear completely. Fortunately, his body was very strong and could withstand blows like that, even without using his wings.

Diazzos quickly arrived in front of Minos and did not hesitate to use his powerful claws, teeth, and big mouth to press him down.

As this creature attempted to grab one of Minos' shoulders, the brown-haired young man moved deftly, dodging the attack while manipulating swords to attack Diazzos from multiple angles.

Space and Time Domain!

Minos suddenly disappeared in front of Diazzos before he felt as if time had stopped.

Realizing what had happened, Diazzos saw Minos appear behind. This human used his glorious golden wings to attack such a scaled being.

"Shit!" He didn't understand what had happened but tried to defend himself.

But once again, he felt trapped by something until he noticed that Minos appeared to his right, even closer to him.

Not expecting this attack, Diazzos couldn't defend himself as Minos' two wings flew towards his back.

A circulating black ring appeared in the area where Diazzos would be penetrated, quickly sucking out the energies and weakening him before the two wings penetrated his body.

Diazzos' eyes widened as he felt Minos' wings penetrate his body, seriously injuring him.

"You shouldn't have defied me," Minos muttered to Diazzos as this being understood why some people called Emperor Stuart the Time Manipulator.

Minos' mastery of space and time had grown stronger as he strengthened himself and used the Incorruptible Heart.

He could now temporarily seal his opponents, rendering them completely immobile for a few moments, just long enough for him to move and reach the weak points in his targets' guards.

By using his other powers simultaneously with this supreme skill, Minos could easily find his enemy's weak point before attacking it without giving Diazzos a chance to defend himself.

"Mer..." Diazzos tried to say as he felt his whole body shaking, realizing his huge mistake.

"You, of all people, should know that I am not merciful," Minos said in a determined tone before he let his wings withdraw from Diazzos' body.

Right after those blood-stained wings left his body, one of them sliced horizontally, separating Diazzos' head from his body in a single breath of time!
