Chapter 2501  Political Movements 

The moment Fredis' head hit the ground, the audience fell almost completely silent. Dozens of people waiting to see blood and action opened their mouths without knowing what to say.

Many already knew of Kendrick's impressive strength. However, since Minos' young heir hadn't shown his full potential in the one previous challenge, most of the guild members, both internal and external members of the guild, were unaware of his abilities.

Minos stood up from his seat next to Sender and straightened his clothes, a satisfied smile on his face as he enjoyed watching his son's manners.

"That was an excellent display of strength. He didn't overdo it with his skill, but he didn't take it lightly either, giving the enemy a chance." Sender praised. "Yes, he showed just enough to let the spectators feel the mysteries of the depth of his powers." Vico followed Minos and Sender while Kendrick looked in their direction.

His sisters and mothers rose from their seats, preparing to leave moments after arriving in the arena.

Abby looked toward some of the Jade Chainsaw faction observers, a defiant look on her face.

Simultaneously with the taunts of Minos' companions, the members of the Jade Chainsaws had deep expressions on their faces. A few individuals expressed their anger by standing up before the referee concluded the event.

"Tsk! How pointless!" One of them turned and left.

"Fucking humans! You'll pay for this!"

The referee announced the result at halftime, giving Kendrick the victory, but also his prize as the winner, Fredis' inheritance!

With that, the ordinary crowd finally stirred, shaking off their initial shock and chanting Kendrick's name and how special he was.

...

"Those bastards! They're on the winning side and nothing else matters!" said one man from Jade Chainsaws as he descended the stairs of the arena and left with three companions.

"They're just ignorant fools. The focus is different now. Minos Stuart and his group are looking for allies. They have realized our position and are ready to fight." Said one of the men, ignoring the masses in the arena to focus on what was most important.

"Kendrick may be as talented as his father. He's a little weaker, but the difference isn't noticeable. Even if we deal with Minos, we'll still have to deal with this kid eventually, otherwise we'll end up in the same situation we're in now." "But dealing with Kendrick might be even more difficult than dealing with Minos. The kid is just an external member. He's unlikely to leave the guild in the next few years." Said the most skeptical of these men, observers of Minos' faction.

"I'm not sure. He didn't hesitate to take the test to become a Soldier. I think he'll become a Junior Officer as soon as he gets the chance." The first to speak calmed down a bit and thought about the circumstances.

Narrowing his eyes, he said with a smile in the corner of his eye. "If we give him the chance, he'll become an internal member and start doing missions outside the guild headquarters."

"Is that so? That would be interesting." "Let's discuss it with the faction leader. The right thing for us to do is not to hinder the growth of Minos' eight novice companions. It's better to let them grow into positions in the guild while not increasing their cultivation. We'll deal with them all when they go on missions outside of the headquarters!"

...

Later, Minos met with all of his companions to discuss the Magma Barrens mission and what the group should expect in the near future.

Sender already had a list of names of enemies they should avoid and, if possible, eliminate.

The list was not short. With 45 names, almost all of them Sovereigns between levels 111 and 114, dealing with them all would not be easy or quick!

Just as the enemies had the big problem of not being able to act directly inside the headquarters, Minos' group couldn't do the same even if they wanted to.

For now, the best they could do was avoid certain contacts, keep an eye out for those 45 names and their cronies, and prepare for the future.

Sooner or later, on missions outside of headquarters, they would face these problems.

For now, they would focus on improving their position within the guild and gaining allies. Maybe then they could avoid some confrontations and prepare for the battles they would surely face!

...

Seven days after Minos and his staff returned from the Magma Barrens...

Sender had just received word of the party's attempt regarding the giants Wovar and Clexvog!

He rushed from the guild's post office to the faction's cave and entered the place full of coffins and powerful artifacts.

"Master, Wovar and Clexvog have agreed to join the group. They will leave The Blue Field in a few days and return to the headquarters." This level 113 man said as he greeted Minos, who was just about to settle a matter with two aliens from his group.

"Oh? When will they arrive? I intend to leave for my next mission as soon as they join us," Minos said with interest, eager to solve the problem with the level 114 General.

He wouldn't be able to complete his missions smoothly until he had dealt with such an enemy. Even though this alone would probably not solve his group's difficulties in the guild, he wanted to deal with it as soon as possible.

As long as he survived the level 114 General, he would be able to complete his other tasks and continue to grow within the guild with his people. The other enemies who would surely be left to harass him later would be difficult to deal with, but it wouldn't be easy for them to eliminate him, either.

Preferring a political dispute to the constant threat of death, Minos was obviously looking forward to having these two giants join him.

"A month or so."

"Very well. You should prepare to leave with me and the giants in a little over a month. That's when I'll leave for my fourth punishment mission, the second one outside the headquarters."
