Chapter 2664 In Search of Tiolos

Staying behind, Navey observed the spot where the Supreme Leader had led Minos' group away. As his fellow Elders dispersed, some going to talk to acquaintances in the area, others returning to their places of seclusion, he smiled in anticipation.

'The next time we see each other, Minos, it'll be time to have a close chat.' His hands clasped behind his back, his fingers lightly squeezing the fan he had with him.

Meanwhile, Tenth Elder Klaus stopped beside Segiel, while Kendrick and his sisters approached the Commander.

"They've finally left..." said the giant with ox-like features on his body, as Kendrick sighed in unison with Segiel.

"And now we're alone," Lily said, standing there as she had returned from her post to say goodbye to her family.

"I hope they're quick and productive... But in the meantime, I think we'll be fine from now on." Hollie said with a subtle smile. "My grandparents always said that father always attracted trouble to himself. That's why he became so big."

Kendrick laughed softly, wishing the same didn't apply to them. But he trusted things would be calmer from now on.

With the end of the war against Firestone Mines and the strengthening of the guild, their position in Oqia was excellent. The guild hadn't been involved in trouble for decades and their faction was stronger than ever, even with the changes that had taken place over the last few decades and now the departure of some of the group's strongest members.

Their plans were to stay at headquarters and grow in their hierarchical positions, with no ambitious goals that could bring them into confrontation with fellow guild members or natives of the continent.

Of course, Kendrick didn't rule out the possibility of them getting into trouble. One didn't always need to look for trouble for it to appear!

Their faction's position was now powerful, and with Minos' departure, it was only a matter of time before other groups of Armhands wanted the position they currently had.

Fortunately, the group comprised individuals between levels 105 and 115, with many members in relevant positions within the inner area and on the guild Council.

But looking dozens of kilometers ahead, darkness, purple clouds and lightning kept the mystery of what lay a day or two's boat ride inland from the Violent Sea.

As they felt the smell of salt in the air, Minos and his companions prepared themselves.

Jalai slowed down, his altitude decreasing as well, while less of the continent became visible to the group.

Minutes after seeing a large area of sea and the west, the group saw their surroundings becoming more limited, with the range of their vision decreasing substantially.

"Here we are." Jalai opened his mouth as he landed in a strip of forest near to a paradise beach, just a few kilometers from a famous town in this area. "The place you're supposed to meet your traveling companion is south of here. Keep going and you'll eventually find it."

"Aren't you coming with us, Supreme Leader?" one of the group's Supremes asked.

Jalai shook his head negatively. "I'm afraid that if I get any closer to it, some old fellow will recognize me and slow me down." He smiled.

Now that he was finished fulfilling his promise to Minos, Jalai intended to return to the guild and go into seclusion for the next few centuries. His plan was to advance to level 124 before turning his attention to any news of General Stuart.

Perhaps Minos would die soon, but he couldn't plan for his group to fail. Until the day these people died, he would consider that his plans would work!

Minos clasped his hands together and bowed his head. "I thank you for the tour, Supreme Leader. With your help, we'll save time and be able to investigate a little more of the Violent Sea in this region as we prepare for our departure."

Jalai looked at Minos and nodded in appreciation. He said, "Good luck to you all. I know how competent everyone here is, but the Violent Sea isn't easy even for me. Take care. All in all, I wish you success."

He disappeared, leaving the group alone, ready to start the mission they had been preparing for decades.

Minos identified where they were and took the lead of the group. "Let's get going. Time to pick up Tiolos' tracks!"
