Five days later...
After departing from the headquarters of the Gray Clouds Sect, Minos made his way alongside some high-level elders of that organization to the empire's capital, riding the level 76 great beast.
Little Green was quite fast, but Minos had ordered it not to hurry anything since there were still more than two weeks left for his responsibility when his group departed Clouds City.
With that, they had somewhat prolonged this trip that could be made almost instantaneously using teleportation ports.
But still, after days of traveling through the southeastern and central areas of the Flaming Empire, they finally arrived in the vicinity of Payton.
Upon arriving there, Little Green was still lowering its altitude to land nearby when a group of the imperial guard approached them in mid-flight.
