The Rise of the Black Plain

Three days after Minos began his optional missions, devoting his time mainly to his work as a Law Enforcer, he had dealt with a dozen troublemakers.

In just three days, Minos came to the attention of his superiors outside the Law Enforcement Hall because he acted vigorously and always gave the maximum punishment to offenders.

Not only had the Law Enforcement Hall staff already learned about him, but external members of the guild were gradually talking about a brave and fearless new recruit acting as Law Enforcer.

When the first problems related to his actions as a Law Enforcer reached him, Minos was not surprised.

However, in this external area of the guild, there weren't many individuals capable of scaring him!

...

"Minos! I challenge you to a battle!" Shouted an alien at the door of the Law Enforcement Hall, where Emperor Stuart was leaving after completing his shift today.

Next to Minos were his teammates, who were also leaving the place to go about their other business.

When someone appeared in a crowd in front of that building, these men immediately turned their attention to the level 101 creature there to challenge Minos.

Minos stopped 15 meters in front of that level 101 creature and heard the comment of his team leader within that repressive force. "That guy must be related to that level 99 Elite Soldier from three days ago. You should be careful. They are members of a very close-knit race with several members in the guild.

If you take this matter to the next level, you'll soon be in the sights of an internal member. From then on, your life will be hellish."

Minos looked at the creature challenging him and didn't think much of it. "I accept your challenge!"

The beings in the surrounding area heard this and naturally looked at Minos differently, as no one expected him to accept so easily.

The difference between a level 100 and 101 being was not slight. Just because Minos was very strong and resembled newly promoted Sovereigns didn't mean he would stand a good chance in a fight against a stronger Sovereign.

That being in question was someone who could soon become an internal member of the guild, so getting involved with him could also be a dumb way to act within that organization.

But Minos didn't think so. He thought about how he could get enough points to become a Soldier and still earn a reserve of merit points for other matters.

If he beat that individual, he would earn the enmity of that being and probably his supporters. But he would also get the points of an individual who probably had enough for the promotion test to Officer, which was many times more than a Recruit needed to become a Soldier.

"All right, see you in the Challenge Arena in three days. We'll settle all our affairs there once and for all!" Said the Sovereign as he turned his back on Minos and left.

The level 99 individual was there, and as he left with his senior, he didn't fail to make a big 'humph' sound to Minos, eager to see the end of this daring Recruit.

"Recruit, you might regret this." One of the level 99 Demigods, a member of the Law Enforcement Hall, said to Minos in a low voice.

"But good luck. I'll watch your fight. I'm sure it'll be fun." That being said while he departed, leaving Minos behind on the front steps of the Law Enforcement Hall building in this outer area of the city.

Minos stood there momentarily as he watched the crowd disperse. Most of those people thought he would end badly after these three days.

The challenge was not a simple one. The side making the challenge was expected to be the one with the best chance of winning. So when one challenged, they risked losing all their points to the rival in his defeat. But even the challenged side could be badly hurt when they lost.

There was no time limit on the challenge. Once two beings entered the Challenge Arena, the battle only ended when one of the two was unconscious on the ground.

That meant the loser could suffer all kinds of damage during the battle and would not be 'saved' by one of the arena members until they lost consciousness.

There were ways of fighting and making an opponent suffer without fainting, so those who knew Minos the least were soon imagining his end.

But even those who had seen him in action didn't know what might happen because so far, Minos had acted against individuals of level 99 at most.

Could he withstand a battle against someone at level 101?

"That was a bit risky." A being Minos had seen before commented as he approached him.

"You..." Minos saw the level 106 individual who had invited him and his group to Armhands.

He smiled when he realized that Minos had recognized him. "Surprised? I'm also part of the Law Enforcement Hall. But I didn't expect that one of my men would join this force and act so boldly."

"Are you our supervisor?" Minos asked as he looked at the cloak folded over one of the individual's shoulders.

"Yes, but you don't have to call me boss. Anyway, how do you intend to handle this?" He looked Minos in the eye without trying to justify why he had invited this guy into his guild.

Minos should have learned that for himself by now!

Minos wasn't going to ask something he already knew either, so he looked in the direction of the dispersing crowd and replied. "I'll defeat him. It will cause me some problems, but it will be my passport to the rank of Elite Soldier."

"That's a good plan. But what will you do when no one wants to accept your points in the external city?" That alien laughed.

"It's not that simple. I can transfer my merit points to my friends." Minos explained, talking about something impossible to do directly. "I'll create missions to help my companions progress faster."

"Oh? That is indeed an interesting possibility. I'm looking forward to seeing where you get to, Recruit. But let me give you this piece of advice. Don't try to grow in Armhands by taking other people's merit points.

Sooner or later, you'll regret it if you follow that path. The best path to success is by contributing to the guild."

"Thanks for the advice, Officer." He thanked her before heading off to settle other matters.
