Chapter 2257 The Routine of a Law Enforcer (2)
Chapter 2257 The Routine of a Law Enforcer (2)
As they stopped in front of the trouble spot, Minos' group saw the way open up for them while a small crowd spread out on the outskirts, giving a view of two alien beings fighting each other.
The beings appeared to be of the same race, while some individuals in the surrounding area seemed to be trying to contain the trouble between the two but were not very successful.
Meanwhile, the two creatures basically used their bodies to attack each other without using any special abilities. Even if they were breaking a guild rule and confronting each other without prior warning or authorization, they wouldn't take the situation to the next level by using their skills.
The guild rules were unambiguous. A disagreement or a fight could result in punishment, but nothing too serious would come of it. However, using special skills was forbidden for ordinary members in unjustifiable situations and, therefore, carried heavy punishments.
But just because the two didn't start their dispute using their abilities didn't mean they wouldn't use them as their fight developed.
Moments of great stress and tension could make even powerful beings in a guild like this lose track of reality for a few moments and do more than they should. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel
The Law Enforcers' job was not only to enforce the law in this place but also to prevent this kind of situation from happening and creating bigger problems for the organization.
Seeing these two beings, one at level 99 and the other at level 98, fighting against each other, Minos' companions stopped in their tracks and waited to see what the newcomer to their group would do.
Minos didn't wait for orders or a specific moment to stop what was happening. He walked forward, entering the space in the middle of the crowd where only those two were fighting.
Then, as they faced each other, exchanging blows with great destructive power and speed, Minos used his Chaotic Gravity, causing the pressure on those two to quadruple in a single instant.
Simultaneously, blades of energy appeared above where the two were standing, making them both realize the danger to their lives.
"Shit!"
Almost instantly after Minos' first steps into the area where the two were fighting, they moved away from each other with great difficulty, trying to escape the attacks which, if they hit them, could even kill them.
Minos' companions watched this with surprise, not imagining that he was so capable, let alone so bold as to fulfill his responsibility in such a dominant way.
Minos saw the two move and used his movement technique, quickly appearing next to the stronger of the two and kicking the alien in the face.
At the same time, his eyes lit up as he glared at the other individual. He used Dragon's Gaze without hesitation.
The two screamed in pain from Minos' physical and mental attack, while forgetting their reasons for fighting each other and turning their attention to this guy dressed in the Law Enforcement Hall uniform.
"Who are you?" Asked the stronger of the two as he tried to control his body and look at Minos.
Minos ignored the low comments about him from the surrounding area and said. "You two are disturbing the guild's order. As punishment, you must return to the guild 500 merit points and three individual compulsory missions. Give me your IDs so I can register your debts."
"What?" freewebnovel.c om
"All that?"
"That... That's a bit much, isn't it?"
The people in the surrounding area muttered amongst themselves as those two high-level troublemakers turned their hatred of each other towards Minos.
Law Enforcers didn't just enforce the laws. They also had the role of appointing punishments for the crimes they recorded!
It was possible to appeal to a Law Enforcer of higher rank within the Law Enforcement Hall. Still, it was usually tough to reverse punishments.
"Is he going to give the maximum punishment to these two?" One of the Law Enforcers' group mates asked his acquaintances there.
"He's brave. It looks like he intends to invest all his chips in this job." Commented the leader of those guards.
"That's unfair!" Shouted the level 98 troublesome alien. "He attacked me! I was only defending myself!"
The other ignored his rival, who had started arguing with him over an important resource. He looked at Minos strangely and then noticed the rank of this young human on the Law Enforcement Hall uniform.
"Recruit, you can't punish me! What's more, you can't give us the maximum punishment for something like this! Don't you know how guild rules work?" This level 99 individual brandished, feeling that he could use the fact that he was a newly promoted Elite Soldier to try to change the punishment he would receive there.
He saw other guards from the Law Enforcement Hall group were around, so he wouldn't escape this problem. But that didn't mean he would accept this punishment easily.
He was a higher-ranking guild member than Minos, so no one would punish him for questioning a Recruit.
Besides, he knew how the Law Enforcement Hall worked well enough not to worry about those guards.
'This Minos Stuart is on his first day as a Law Enforcer. Let me teach him how things work at Armhands.' This level 99 guy thought to himself.
Minos momentarily looked into that creature's eyes while he emitted a dark feeling from his being. "I can't? You're mistaken. As the Law Enforcer of the city's external area, I can punish everyone except internal and council members. My rank or yours doesn't matter."
"Recruit, you're right!" That being changed his posture. "Then how about lowering my punishment? 500 merit points are way out of line for a minor problem like this."
"You're right," Minos said. "Your punishment will be 1,500 merit points and 5 mandatory missions!"
"What?"
"Are you going to disrespect a Law Enforcer doing his job again?" Minos took a step forward as he spoke more roughly to that being. At the same time, the people in the surrounding area fell silent, seeing that this was no common Recruit.
"Are you really going to take this to that level?" The level 99 individual clenched his fists, imagining that he couldn't beat Minos there but that he could put a real damper on this fool's life.
The other being realized that Minos' focus was on his rival and lowered his aura, feeling that it was better not to say anything and let things develop on their own.
"Are you threatening me?" Minos stood in front of that being while everyone in the surrounding area felt the dark aura of someone who had already killed millions of living beings on his journey.
Gulp!
