Kapitel 2500: Quick Duel 

Upon an Elder's ascension to the Upper Realms or death, there would be a new vacancy in the guild's Council of Elders.

Besides this vacancy, a new General would replace the Elder or Chief Commander. A Senior Officer would become a General, which meant that an Intermediate Officer would leave their position and a Junior Officer would change ranks.

In short, every position above the rank of Recruit would become vacant because of the death or ascension of the Elder. This in itself was an opportunity for all guild members to seek advancement.

However, as much as a single position could increase the importance of the guild and provide better rights and benefits, the competition for that position could create distortions and even more opportunities.

For example, Jembei wanted to deal with Minos not only to get revenge but also to gain prestige and influence within the guild, which would bring him closer to becoming the next Chief Commander.
