The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2573 Day of Rest

The next day, Minos was relaxing in the family’s home after spending a hot night with his two wives.

The two were still asleep, both with extremely relaxed expressions on their faces, lying on their sides of the bed with only a thin sheet covering their bodies.

Minos got up and looked out of the bedroom window and saw the main street of the city. With a cup of tea in one hand, he silently watched the aliens’ movements while he relaxed and sipped his hot drink.

After having a good time with his wives, tending to their needs and his own, he was looking forward to being with Ruth and Segiel. However, neither of them were in the guild, so he would have to wait days or weeks to see his other women.

Even though the other two weren’t there, for today Minos wanted to relax, follow the Commander’s own recommendation and rest while he could. Soon he would have the experiments on the black liquid and the missions related to the war against the Firestone Mines.

There would be enough opportunities to hone his skills for him not to worry about that today.

As soon as he finished his hot drink, Abby and Gloria showed signs of waking up, stretching as they looked like normal people after a good night’s sleep.

Of course, they didn’t need sleep to rest, but after a fiery night, even cultivators as strong as they could fall asleep and relax.

“Morning,” Gloria said with a serene expression, massaging her temples as she stood up.

Abby looked at Minos and saw him standing naked in front of the balcony of their apartment.

For a moment, she thought about the things they had done the night before, subtly biting her lip.

But she was in no hurry. Now that Minos was there, she could have his attention for at least an hour every day. That had been their routine in this guild for years before he left to solve the last mission, so it wasn’t going to change now.

They would have liked to have more of Minos’ children, but their cultivations were already so high that they were practically sterile. So these days, they did it more for fun and self-pleasure than for procreation.

After a shower, the trio got dressed and prepared to walk around the headquarters, according to Minos’ plans for the day.

He didn’t intend to cultivate or train today. Nor did he intend to take on any work responsibilities. But that didn’t mean he didn’t have plans.

“Shall we go?” he asked as he showed his arms to the two, causing them to nod in agreement and hold his hands at the same time.

“Many of your former rivals will be shocked when they realize it’s you, Minos,” Gloria said with a smile as they left their residence on the main street of the guild’s inner area.

“This is exactly what I want. They stopped opposing me just before I left for the Seraphim World, but that’s not enough. They have to see me and feel that they have to ask for forgiveness and swear that they won’t act against my interests,” Minos said with a defiant look in his eyes, eager to show himself to his old rivals.

That was his goal today: to let his old rivals and enemies know he was him and to understand how things would be from now on.

Most of the problems that had plagued Minos’ faction when he returned to the guild decades ago no longer worried them. They had become the largest faction in the inner city, respected and feared by many guild members.

However, there was still competition for missions, pressure that made it difficult for certain members of Minos’ faction to get resources and opportunities within the guild.

Minos wanted to change that, to reverse the actions against his faction, and to dominate both the internal and external areas of the guild!

At his current level, he wouldn’t even need to challenge anyone!

As Minos, Gloria, and Abby walked the main streets of the inner area, members of the rival factions soon found their behavior strange before they could understand who this white-haired man was.

‘Is that Minos?’ asked a level 113 alien as he stopped in his tracks and hid behind a lamppost. ‘Level 109? How is that possible? Has he left all his companions behind?’

While this alien was asking these questions, another alien inside a restaurant approached the front window of the establishment and stared wide-eyed in Minos’ direction.

‘Officer Minos? So the rumors of his return are true!’ a level 112 woman thought, while wearing a smiling expression, interested in Minos’ return.

“Let’s get back to the group. What we’ve heard is true. He’s undergone an absurd transformation. His power must be much greater now than it was two decades ago,” a furry being said to a completely different looking fellow from across the street where Minos was walking with his wives.

“How can someone change so much? I thought Sovereigns didn’t change their appearance that much with just advancing levels.”

“He has improved four levels in just over 20 years. That’s not normal, even for a monster like him. The opportunity he found was so extraordinary it changed his entire body structure!” the furry creature said as he led his ally back to their faction.

Abby and Gloria watched out of the corner of their eyes the many people looking at them, some whispering to each other, others with looks of fear, pale on their faces, almost as if they couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

But none of them could blame them. They themselves had been shocked to see Minos the day before!

And on the other hand, seeing the reaction of many individuals who had already shown hostile or overbearing behavior towards their group, the two couldn’t help but walk proudly beside Minos.

Minos felt his wives squeeze his hands and imagined that they had many things on their minds.

But he walked on, ignoring even the Generals on his way. It looks like I won’t have to wander around this city much longer. Soon, all the guild members will know of my return and transformation.
