In the blink of an eye, five full months had passed since Minos and his crew left the Dragon Tribe!

After leaving the dragon homeland months ago, they had been traveling smoothly for weeks, and the group was ending another sea journey.

With the tranquility they had enjoyed in those first weeks, the entire group had taken advantage of the opportunities Minos had given them and had made improvements, with some new advances emerging among them.

Dunyxa had been the one to make the most significant advancement, reaching level 90 and becoming a Demigod!

In addition to her, one of the level 90 Sea Folk man had reached level 91, and Ruth had advanced to level 83, the same level as Gloria and Abby.

These were the only advancements the group had made during that period, not much, but enough to improve the group's overall strength.

The advances of Dunyxa and the Sea Folk man had been very important for the group!

But perhaps the most important breakthrough for them had not happened during this initial period of peace, something that was responsible for the problems they would encounter in the middle of their journey.

The leader of the group sent by the Sanctuary of Visions had not yet advanced to level 92 and, as such, was still marked by the Gorgon's poison.

As a result, in the middle of the group's third month of travel, they were reached by a group of Gorgons who had been chasing them since they left the Continent of Beasts!

That group of Gorgons was just as strong as the previous one, and they had the advantage that Abby couldn't use her ability on the sea's surface.

Their fusion required not completely decomposed bodies, but such bodies could only be found underground on land or on the sea floor.

The group hadn't taken this into consideration when they left the continent, so they traveled on the surface, which made it easier for them to be reached by the Gorgons and caused the first of the two battles they would have during the period.

But with a much larger group than the Gorgons and the presence of a level 93 dragon to help them, Minos' people had managed to escape these creatures' deadly threat.

However, they didn't manage to wipe out their opponents. After a long battle, both sides moved away from each other, which would lead to their reunion at the end of the fourth month of the Minos group's journey.

By that time, the level 91 Sea Folk woman had reached level 91, enough for her group to no longer have to worry about their opponents knowing their location at all times.

Unfortunately, it hadn't been that fast, and the day after the woman's breakthrough, the group faced the Gorgons again.

Once again, they had finished without extinguishing each other. However, four members of Minos' party had died in the battle!

Among the dead were a mermaid, a merman, and two mercenaries, a level 90 human and a level 89 beast.

These were heavy losses for the group, but they had managed to kill 3 of the 10 opponents between levels 94 and 96.

This time, they had used the sea floor to their advantage. Abby had managed to fuse her techniques quickly enough to significantly affect the group of enemies, helping to kill two of the three enemies and seriously wounding two others.

Thus, Minos' party had reached the end of yet another sea voyage, finally approaching the Divine Continent, where they would arrive in a matter of hours!

...

Seeing the southern coast of the Divine Continent, where the state that housed the Pantheon of Honor was, Minos clenched his fists tightly as he stood on the deck of the Sea Folk ship.

"We're going straight to the Pantheon of Honor. I'm going to destroy those fucking Gorgons!" He said angrily, making even Dunyxa next to him a little afraid.

But after all that had happened, with Minos and most of his group having been attacked by Gorgons four times in the last few years, he had every reason to be angry.

They had lost companions he had promised to protect, and they had been constantly threatened and forced to flee.

The feeling of being constantly on the run was not pleasant!

Minos felt this bothering him more and more and wanted to try to use his influence in that organization to find allies.

Since the damned Gorgons wouldn't stop coming after him, they had to be exterminated!

Convinced that there was no other way to solve the problem, Minos was determined to advance his arrival at the Pantheon of Honor.historical

"This is good. Even if they don't help us eliminate that threat, we can at least make the Gorgons an unwelcome tribe on the Divine Continent." The level 93 dragon said, knowing that even he couldn't deal with the group that had been harassing them.

But Minos' friends in the Pantheon of Honor could, with the stroke of a pen, turn the Gorgons into hunted creatures and ensure that their group would no longer have to deal with these enemies, at least while they were on the Divine Continent.

"Do you know how to get to the headquarters of the Pantheon of Honor?" Gloria asked, aware that her husband had been taken there before.

"Yes. It's in one of the largest cities of this empire, which we're about to enter. We can get there quickly. The Pantheon of Honor has partnerships with all the states on the continent, and its members have privileges with the imperial forces and local nobles.

I'll be able to get a wormhole to take us there once I show my ID as a member of the organization. That will get us there in less than a day."

"Oh? That's really convenient." One of the mercenaries commented.

And it really was very convenient to be a member of that organization. It wasn't so convenient for those outside of the Divine Continent. Still, within these vast lands, one would feel a colossal difference between not being a member of this force and being one.

Even being favored by the continent's leaders wouldn't be much compared to the opportunities available to people with the prestige of being members of the continent's most important group of experts.

Nevertheless, Minos and his people would soon arrive on the Divine Continent and head for the first human city along the way, from where they would seek access to the local wormhole network.
