Chapter 2258 Trouble?
Chapter 2258 Trouble?
That individual trembled with fear at seeing Minos so close to him as he felt the terror of this level 95 Recruit's aura.
'Is he going to kill me?' This level 99 creature hesitated, feeling somewhat fearful and uncertain.
The others in the vicinity feared the same, and the guards' leader there couldn't help but move, stopping next to Minos and touching one of the human's shoulders.
"Recruit." He said as he looked into Minos' eyes while Emperor Stuart stood facing the troublemaker, thinking about what to do.
"Recruit!"
Minos turned his eyes to his superior and listened. "Recruit, you don't have to give such a..."
Then, as this Sovereign was speaking, Minos interrupted him to justify himself. "The punishment for this troublemaker is just and deserved. It is laid down in the Law Enforcement Hall's code of rules and punishments.
Not only did this creature get involved in an unauthorized fight within the guild, but he also disrespected a Law Enforcer and threatened him. I have many witnesses here, so I'm confident that none of our superiors will change this punishment."
The level 100 Sovereign agreed, but even so, he felt that this Recruit was crossing the line for his first day as a Law Enforcer.
"People will view this negatively, Recruit. Some of our superiors might think you're using this to accumulate more merit for yourself." Said this level 100 being, while only the two could hear what they were saying.
The Law Enforcement Hall was basically made up of guild members who accepted missions as Law Enforcers. There were no permanent members in this force, but ultimately, it was directly observed by the Supreme Leader!
In a way, the Law Enforcement Hall was Armhands' main component for the long-term maintenance of the guild. As such, the highest-placed individual in that force oversaw this repressive force.
Because of this, all the other members of the Law Enforcement Hall had to act following the guild's laws because if they were excessively unfair or negligent, sooner or later, someone would notice their problems and take action against them.
Because of this, even though this Armhands force was made up of ordinary members who didn't necessarily have a great commitment to complying with the law, in general, the supervisors of this group were extremely cold when analyzing the issues that came to them, always obeying the guild's rules.
That's why Minos was confident that these punishments would be upheld.
The leader of this group of Law Enforcers knew this, but another feature of the Law Enforcement Hall worried him.
Law Enforcement Hall punished in various ways, but one of the most common was fines in merit points. When this force absorbed merit points from offenders, parts of these points were transferred to good Law Enforcers. fre(e)webnovel.com
That had to be earned for a number of reasons, so not everyone got these points, and even if they did, they usually only got a fraction of them.
However, some superiors in the Law Enforcement Hall could be suspicious of their Law Enforcers when they handed out very heavy punishments and think that people like Minos were just out for profit when punishing offenders.
That was the point behind that Sovereign's speech! free(w)ebnovel.com
"Besides, this guy will look for more trouble with you, Recruit. Don't forget that you're just a Recruit!" Said that Law Enforcer.
"I thank you for your concern. But since I've dealt with these two, I'll stand my ground." Minos was firm before stepping forward and forcibly taking the ID from that level 99 being.
The other individual who was causing trouble didn't make the situation difficult and soon handed Minos his ID.
While Minos was recording the punishment of those two in their identification items, the other guards in his group began to disperse the crowd.
Minos said to the two troublesome guild members. "You have 3 days to submit your challenges to the Law Enforcement Hall and 15 days to make payment and collect your mandatory quests if your punishments are not reversed. Failure to meet these deadlines will result in the loss of your rights and daily fines that could even land you in prison."
The two listened to Minos without saying anything else, while the leader of this group realized that this new Recruit was not simple and seemed to have no fear of conflict.
After releasing the two troublemakers, the guards gathered around Minos.
"You made a mistake, Recruit. These people will keep this punishment in their hearts." Said the level 98 Demigod.
"If they value the guild and want to make it stronger rather than weaker, they will accept this punishment and change their attitudes," Minos said coldly. "If they don't have the guild as their priority, they will suffer bitterly."
"You don't need to convince us that you're acting for the good of the guild, Recruit." One of the two level 98 individuals smiled, aware that all the newcomers in this force hated Armhands.
Minos did have his selfish goals. But as long as he was inside this place, he would play by the rules, which would undoubtedly benefit the guild more than himself.
He thought this was the path he should follow after joining the Law Enforcement Hall and felt he could grow as he acted as a Law Enforcer of this force.
His words were not merely the empty words of someone planning to stab this force. He had already realized this would not be possible when he discovered the organization's hierarchy.
So, as long as this organization was not threatened with destruction, the only way to his freedom was to grow in this place, which could happen more easily if he followed the rules of Armhands.
As someone who had led for a long time, he knew how the mentality of leaders in general worked.
For his own selfish reasons, he wanted to be the most loyal and faithful to Armhands while he was there!
"I'm not trying to sound like that, Soldier," Minos commented but didn't press the issue. "Anyway, I think that problem is solved."
"Our problems are never solved so simply." Said the group leader before returning to their activity. "But let's get back to our patrol.
You're still in charge of solving the problems for today, Recruit Minos. But be more careful, or you'll regret it later when you can't buy reliable resources or have challenges showing up on your doorstep."
Minos smiled when he heard that. "A few challenges wouldn't be bad. I've heard that the side that challenges loses part of their merit points when they lose."
"Exactly. When they lose, but they don't usually lose." Said one of the men.
Minos said nothing more and was soon back at work with them, walking through the areas under the responsibility of this group.
