The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2533  Intermediate Officer 

After dinner with Segiel, Minos returned to his internal routine at Armhands headquarters.

He would spend time with each of his wives every day, train with his children from time to time, and fulfill his responsibilities as Law Enforcer in the internal area of the guild.

It would be a few days before Artaud's situation was resolved. Even after his death was confirmed, the promotion exam in which the Senior Officers would try to replace him would have to take place before the exam for the Intermediate Officers who would compete for the position of Senior Officer.

It could take a few weeks for this entire process to take place, so Minos had been performing his duties as Law Enforcer while waiting for the situation to be resolved.

In the meantime, he had been leading his group through the guild's internal situations. Although Artaud had died and the Jade Chainsaws hadn't moved for the time being, there were still political disputes between the guild's internal and external factions.

For the next few days, Minos would be very busy dealing with these issues, and he would still have to take some time off to cultivate and train his skills!

...

Six weeks after Minos' return to the guild...

Today, Minos was once again patrolling the guild's inner area, performing his role as Law Enforcer, the regular optional mission that he and his faction mates always performed to earn merit points.

After losing his position as supervisor of the external Law Enforcement Hall because of Jembei's actions, Minos had returned to his role as Law Enforcer, this time in the guild's internal area.

But that was about to change!

At the end of another individual patrol shift in the guild's inner territory, he made his way back to the Law Enforcement Hall in that area.

Minos had almost no problems at the moment. Rumors that he had fought Artaud had already spread, and hardly anyone wanted any trouble with him.

Minos had no problems because of those rumors. Armhands was a guild that encouraged competition among its members and turned a blind eye to murder.

Unless there was concrete evidence of murder or actions against the guild's rules, one was hardly ever punished for a rumor or something like that.

Artaud had already been presumed dead, but even so, Minos was calm in his position and had no problems because of the rumors.

But when he returned to the Law Enforcement Hall from the inner area this afternoon, he couldn't help but enter it with a smile on his face. 'Segiel became Artaud's replacement last week, and the promotion exam for Intermediate Officers to compete for her position as Senior Officer took place yesterday. I should be notified of my promotion by the end of the week.'

He was in a good mood as he entered the temple in the main downtown area.

As he entered the Law Enforcement Hall's records area, Minos encountered Maximillian, who was coming out of an office next to an alien, the current Law Enforcement Hall Supervisor of the inner area.

The level 112 man standing next to Maximilian was the current head of the Law Enforcement Hall. Only the Commander was above him.

The Law Enforcement Hall had no power within the Council, so the head of the group was usually a Senior Officer.

Seeing these two, Minos approached them, catching Maximillian's eye.

"Minos..."

Minos just nodded to Maximillian as he handed a letter to the Senior Officer in front of him. "What is this?" the man asked without understanding.

"In the next few days, my promotion to Intermediate Officer will be announced. I will apply for your position." Minos came straight to the point, drawing the attention of the men in the area, some of whom were working, others there to register they were about to start their patrol routine or had already finished.

The level 112 alien looked at Minos with a wince and opened the challenge card.

Normally, when two members of the same rank in the guild competed for a position in the Law Enforcement Hall, the members of the hall had to vote and decide which side would take the position.

However, if a lower-ranked member wanted to compete for a higher-ranked member's position, they would have to challenge the person who they wanted to take their place!

After the challenge, the most important members of the hall would still have to vote on whether to accept the result, but Minos wasn't worried. He already had enough support and was only making the challenge because those were the rules.

"Are you kidding?!" The supervisor of the Law Enforcement Hall didn't like this at all, raising his aura as the veins in his head popped, shaking with anger.

"Control yourself, Officer. I'm serious," Minos said, looking into this person's eyes and also showing his aura.

This man was a part of the Jade Chainsaws. But even though he was the supervisor of the Law Enforcement Hall, he couldn't refuse Minos' challenge, let alone put pressure on him because he was a superior inside and outside the hall. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

In Armhands, challenge was the only thing that transcended all the hierarchies that existed in the guild!

You could even challenge an Elder or the Supreme Leader if you felt confident enough!

Of course, no one would do that...

Maximillian's eyes widened as he watched Minos closely, finally seeing this guy make such a move.

Unconsciously, Maximillian took two steps back, not wanting to get caught in the crossfire of their argument.

"Tsk! You're not an Intermediate Officer yet. I'm afraid you've gone too far and I should arrest you for disrespecting your superior." The hall supervisor raised one of his hands against Minos.

Even though Minos hadn't been made an Intermediate Officer yet, he could make such a challenge since his promotion was already guaranteed!

But he didn't have to say that to the irritated superior in front of him. Just as he was about to open his mouth to justify himself, Otis rushed into the area.

"Master, the Records Hall just made it official. Your promotion to Intermediate Officer has been confirmed. You can now sign up for Intermediate Officer missions!"

Everyone in the vicinity looked at the newly arrived robot, while the hall overseer turned pale, aware he had no chance against Minos in a challenge.

His only alternative was to press Minos with the power of his role!

In a challenge, he was sure the human in front of him would crush him!
