Chapter 2621 The Future of the Family in Armhands

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

The moment Kendrick fell backwards onto the platform, he sighed as he closed his eyes, feeling pain and physical fatigue, but, of course, nothing to worry about.

"I lost."

He muttered with a smile on his face, admitting the difference between him and his little sister when they were on the same level.

'It's a good thing Sarah didn't come to Zocarro, otherwise I would have lost more than once...' He thought to himself, wondering what his older sister's powers would be like.

Sarah didn't have the innate abilities of Kendrick and Hollie. But she had a powerful gravitational ability that could even crush the bones of those few levels stronger than her. Even if she lost her cultivation base to one of her siblings and was left with a level disadvantage, she would still have methods to fight back against.

As for Rowan, he had extreme vitality and could fight with serious injuries on his body.

But Kendrick maintained his pride as the eldest son of Minos by only losing to one of his siblings today, not so much regretting the defeat and the loss of his claim to the Hydras' Amulet.

He didn't care who the item went to, just as he wasn't someone who had to be Minos' heir just because he was his father's first male child. Kendrick was committed to his family and wouldn't get into a serious fight with his siblings or his stepmothers.

As Minos appeared on the platform to hand Hollie the necklace with the Hydras' Amulet, Kendrick stood up with Abby's help and went to hug his little sister.

"Congratulations on your victory. I'll help you train whenever you want, Hollie. With the Hydras' Amulet on your side, I think we can benefit from training together," he said in a slightly competitive tone.

She sensed he meant that only with the amulet on her side could she really challenge him, but she just smiled at him.

Meanwhile, the dragons of the two looked at each other strangely, as if they were teasing each other about the victory or defeat of their parents.

Minos said to them both, "You fought well. Now it's time to return to your seclusion and continue your quest for leveling up. Your mothers and I will be here to help and protect you in the meantime. But make the most of our presence to cultivate and make up your minds. In a few decades, we'll be leaving for Uzira, and those who choose to stay must be prepared to face their challenges without our help."

Kendrick had already decided to stay in Zocarro when it was time for Minos to go to Uzira. The eldest of his children wanted to stay and help their relatives and friends who would arrive from the Spiritual World in the next few years. Meanwhile, Lily and Hollie still hadn't made up their minds.

But all three understood their father's message and nodded in agreement. Each of them knew what they had to do and that there would be no turning back once they had made up their minds and Minos had left with his group.

As Hollie and Lily left, Minos said to Kendrick, "While I'm in Uzira, plan a trip to Zeta Draconis with some members of the faction. You may access a dragon heirloom in the major world of that galaxy."

"Zeta Draconis? The galaxy you passed through when you went to settle your business with the seraphim?" Kendrick asked curiously.

"Yes. There is a world of powerful dragons in that galaxy. Try to visit the area before you advance to the 12th stage. This can help you cultivate a new divine power related to dragons and achieve a physical transformation similar to mine. Take Odys with you at that time," Minos recommended, telling Kendrick to start preparing now.

"All right." Thanking his father, Kendrick left with his dragon and his wife, while most of the spectators had already left the stands of the arena.

Looking at his wives, Minos smiled and sighed, satisfied with this competition and the future of the Stuart family.

"Now I feel more confident to leave them behind," he said to the three, having seen everything he wanted to see in this six game challenge. "Kendrick and Hollie will take care of the family in our absence. I don't know if they will ever be able to reach the Celestial grade of their Physique, but even if not, they will have enough weapons to secure the future of anyone who comes here from the Spiritual World."

Ruth nodded in agreement, wondering what things would be like in less than 70 years, when it would be time for them to leave for Uzira with Tiolos. "They'll probably be two or three levels stronger by then. Even without us, they'll know how to deal with the challenges along the way."

Thinking of her own daughter, Gloria said, "Sarah was left behind even though she wasn't even a Grandmaster... These two will be powerful mid-level Sovereigns by then, capable of taking on even high-level Sovereigns. So let's trust them."

"I just wonder how long we'll go without seeing them once we make our journey to Uzira. Coming back won't be easy." Abby looked at Minos.

He said, "I might reach the 12th stage in Uzira, so we might not see them for a long time... But anyway, the possibilities ahead are hard to predict. Let's wait to understand such a continent. What we know now may be a fraction of the truth, or even a myth. We won't be able to get a better estimate until we reach our destination.

The only thing he was sure of was that when he reached level 115, he would pass through the next phase of the True Celestial inheritance, which could put his family members in a period of vulnerability because of his certain absence during the selection.

In the next phase of inheritance, 100 individuals would compete until only 10 were left, who would return to decide the heir to the True Celestial when they all reached level 125.

So Minos and his wives left this battlefield, leaving the future to the future for now, while they still had things to worry about in the present.

In a few weeks, the news of the war would get even worse, and the time would finally come when the guild would be completely stripped of its 10 elders and Supreme Leader.

Soon, Minos and Segiel would be the strongest defending the Armhands' headquarters!
