Chapter 2570 Summoned by the Commander

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Minos lowered his aura, causing the 13 individuals to feel the overwhelming pressure on them to disappear. It happened so quickly they almost jumped backward while their muscles were still in position to prevent them from falling.

Minos approached the man who offered to guide him to the headquarters and signaled for him to come along.

"That was a pleasant welcome, boys. We'll see you again soon."

With this humorous comment, Minos left the area and the 12 frightened individuals behind, making his way to the floating island above this post in Examire.

In a few moments, Minos would set foot on the island, a little over 20 years after he left to complete the mission in the Seraphim World.

"How's the guild these days?" he asked the level 114 man next to him, curious about the changes over the years.

"The war with Firestone Mines intensified while the Officer was away. We're in quite a turmoil right now, with battles for territory and deaths on both sides of the conflict happening often," explained the alien, who followed Minos as they crossed the island's entrance to the city.

The alien already imagined that Minos wanted to know about the Stuart family faction, so he said, "As for your family, they're fine, Officer. Your children and wives have grown stronger, and until the last time I heard from them, they were fine. But Officer Ruth and Officer Kendrick are not at headquarters right now. So I don't know how they are today."

"Oh? Where did they go? Do you have any idea?"

Minos looked into the alien's eyes, who promptly shook his head in denial.

"No. I'm not part of the faction, so I'm in the dark. I only know they're out because of the rumors and because I saw Officer Kendrick leave the headquarters with two of his companions. A robot and a woman who appears to be his wife."

'Grisdi and Otis.'

Minos understood who Kendrick's companions were.

"The others are all back at headquarters. They're stronger than when you left, Officer."

"Good." Minos smiled, but was not at all surprised. He had left so much for his family. It was clear it would strengthen them in his absence.

Arriving at the entrance to the fenced area, Minos didn't face the same problem as he had a few moments before. As soon as he showed his ID, the men in the area made way for him.

However, every man at that post was impressed by the changes in Minos' appearance, level, and aura.

Normally, a cultivator's aura changed little. It became stronger, thicker, and more energetic, but its characteristics didn't change. However, Minos' aura seemed completely different, as if he was not the same person as before.

The guards' behavior did not surprise Minos. He had indeed undergone two significant transformations during his years traveling outside the galaxy.

He moved forward alongside the level 114 alien and soon arrived in the built-up area of the city, in the outer members' wing.

"Is this your home, master?" Ama asked as the level 114 Sovereign, a Senior Officer, watched Minos' interaction with the serpents.

"Not exactly. My area is more internal to the city." Minos continued down a busy street, with guild members staring at them and muttering things.

There were hardly any outside guildsmen in Minos' faction at the moment, and even if there were, hardly any of them would recognize him as he was now.

Soon, Minos would make his way through the entire outer area, passing through the area bordering the inner ward of the city.

At this point, he encountered one of the guild's Generals, who was standing there looking for him.

"Officer Minos Stuart, come with me. The Commander wants to see you," the 114th level man said, while he couldn't help but look at the white-haired man differently.

Like all the others who had already seen Minos and noticed his changes, this General wondered exactly what the Intermediate Officer before him had gone through to change so much.

Minos smiled when he heard this, seeing the Commander was more aware of what was going on in the city than anyone would imagine.

"Thank you for coming with me, Officer. We'll talk another time." Minos nodded to the man who had led him, and followed the General to the Council.

The General walked cautiously ahead of Minos, feeling as if he were walking on eggs, an unsettling sensation for someone at the peak of the 11th stage.

As he walked, feeling the wind blowing through his body, this General watched Minos from the corner of his eye, full of curiosity in his heart.

But even though he wanted to ask a lot of questions, and even though he was Minos' superior, this man didn't dare. Silently, he made his way to the entrance of the Council, soon passing the guards in the area and heading for the guild's administration building.

Minos spotted Rhett, that level 110 alien who, unlike the others, recognized him.

"Minos?" The alien asked, his eyes widening in disbelief at the changes his leader had undergone.

Hell, Minos was at almost the same level as him. How had this human cultivated so fast over the years?

'His vitality doesn't seem to be weaker than before… In fact, it seems to be stronger! He didn't achieve this by going to an area of the universe where time passes differently from here!' Rhett realized the same thing the General accompanying Minos had already done.

Cultivation in a world where time passed differently than in Zocarro would easily explain Minos' changes. But the human's vitality was too much stronger than before for that to be the truth behind his current level.

Minos just smiled at Rhett and left to talk to this individual later.

He entered the large office of the guild's Commander again, where the giant was already waiting for him with an impatient look on his experienced face.

"Minos, you're back at last!" the giant said as he saw the human stop in front of him, and he couldn't help but smile as he felt the changes in that small body.

He had already sensed some changes in Minos from afar, but when he touched the human body in front of him, he noticed many more.
