The Rise of the Black Plain
chapter-2619

After Segiel took over the leadership of the guild, she greeted each of her subordinates, and soon the ceremony was over.

There was a war for everyone to worry about. They couldn't possibly attach much importance to a "simple" change in guild leadership.

As important as this change was to Segiel, Minos and his faction, and other groups, it didn't compare to the war.

The internal power struggles of Armhands were no longer as important now that even the Supreme Leader was away from headquarters fighting for the good of the guild!

Once almost everyone had returned to their duties, only Tenth Elder Klaus remained, along with Segiel, Minos, and Ruth.

Looking at the three of them, the level 117 Supreme smiled and said, "Soon, you will be the strongest of the guild at the headquarters. The battles of this war are becoming more and more chaotic, and I, too, will join my elders in the fight."

"How long do we have until then?" Minos asked amid his two beautiful, blue-haired women.

The bull-faced giant came straight to the point. "Weeks, two months at the most."

"That's a really short time," Abby said as she contemplated the ground.

"That's all the time you have," Klaus said firmly before looking into Segiel's eyes and returning to the subject of changing positions on the Council. "Anyway, I'll be around to help you familiarize yourself with the affairs of the guild Chief Commander over the next few weeks. Get all your questions while I'm here. Once I leave for battle, you'll be in charge of the entire guild, and you'll be primarily responsible for headquarters."

The war shouldn't take long to end. All sides in the conflict believed that the conflict would be resolved within the next year. So Segiel wouldn't rule completely alone for long. Even so, the time that she would rule this place "alone" would be dangerous, and she would hardly get through it without attacks against the headquarters.

The headquarters would really be in her hands during this period, and instead of coming out of this crisis bigger and stronger, it might even lose much of its opulence with many losses.

One year was not long, but in the current circumstances of Armhands, it would be enough to destroy hundreds of thousands of years of history.

"I will do my best," Segiel said firmly, her gaze determined, her willingness to do everything in her power for this place visible in her eyes.

Klaus nodded at her with a smile and left, promising to wait for her in the Elders' ward.

She looked at Minos and asked, "I suppose you can't get any stronger in the dangerous months ahead, can you?"

He smiled at her as he nodded in agreement. "Unfortunately, I can't get that strong in such a short time. Even with my new ability, it will take me at least a few years of hard work with enemies and normal cultivation to reach level 111."

After many tests with his ability, Minos had a better idea of what was necessary to use it without harming himself or his allies. He could permanently improve his cultivation by 1% each time he used such abilities, but in order to receive such an improvement without being harmed in the long run, one would have to alternate the improvements brought about by it with the improvements of serious cultivation.

If you received a 1% increase in strength from his skill, you would have to spend some time cultivating normally and achieve another 1% development before you could receive his help again. In this way, the improvements seemed to be more stable, and one's future opportunities didn't decrease, but rather increased.

Even if this wasn't the ideal scenario, it was still very good. Using such a method, one could cultivate 50% faster with the help of Minos!

Not only that, if you wanted to improve faster without having to take the trouble to cultivate in the meantime, you could use the method he used to create new Supremes for Armhands.

This was also a good method, but he wouldn't use it for himself and his family members for a long time. Only in unique situations would he agree to use such a thing, as he had recently done, to help his entire family and faction improve their cultivation.

But now that he had done so, Minos didn't intend to use it on many of his companions for much longer.

"Sigh... It's a shame. But keep helping the men who want your help. It might give us some breathing room when extreme dangers approach," she said to him in a worried tone.

"Don't worry, we'll have new Supremes at headquarters soon. Some of them won't go to the battlefield and will stay here with us." Minos thought of Gan and Ama, his two mounts he had ordered to leave the headquarters and hunt down peak Sovereigns for him to use as sacrifices for the two serpents to reach the 12th stage.

Segiel knew of Minos' plans and didn't doubt him, counting on the help he could give her.

"You two better go. I've improved my cultivation a lot lately, but now I have to deal with guild matters. You two should focus on your own affairs." She bade them goodbye.

Minos and Abby left soon after, planning to do exactly as Segiel recommended, knowing that continuing their routines was the best thing for them and the guild.

In the next few days, the last match of their family tournament would take place, and after that, it would be time to begin the long process of preparing to leave for Uzira. Soon, the two would go their separate ways in the inner city to lead their respective groups, keep order in the city, and continue their journeys of empowerment.

Gan and Ama would return to headquarters before Kendrick and Hollie's confrontation. With Minos' help, the two level 114 serpents would become the first Supremes of Minos' faction!

But aside from them, other peak Sovereigns of Minos' faction would soon achieve similar results!
