"If that is the case, we will take it with grace, Lord Asher." Gellor thanked Lucius alongside his group.

Even for them, going to a healer was an expensive procedure hence why they needed to approach Lord Asher in the first place.

Lucius nodded and called for Neta. The servant came quickly and bowed his head. "I\'ll call for a healer, my lord?" Neta asked.

"Call for all sorts of healers to check on each one of them. They might have sustained injuries that aren\'t visible as well or might be coming down with fatigue or some sickness, so I\'d like to take care of everything." Lucius said in a cordial tone.

The effect of his words was incredible, all of the members in Gellor\'s team and especially Gellor himself became shocked at the sudden words of the young lord.

It wasn\'t enough that their light injuries were treated, but they would also be given a chance to have other possible injuries, fatigue, but even possible chance of sickness to be taken care of?

Gellor and his mercenary group had no idea what next mission Lord Asher Inanis had in store for them and though that made them a bit nervous, they were also immensely grateful.

"This is all unnecessary, Lord Asher… unless it truly is required for the mission?" Gellor asked, an unsure expression on his face.

"Allow me to treat the hired mercenary group of the Inanis Family with proper care. The mission that will be coming soon is vital, so I\'d like all of you to be in your best health and shape." Lucius said.

It was easy for Lucius to see the awe in the face of Gellor and he couldn\'t help but think of something.

\'He probably has good skills and reflexes when it comes to battling, but in terms of discerning the methods and intentions of other individuals, it\'s a little on the naive side.\' Lucius thought and eyed the others within the group.

Out all of them, perhaps the only one with enough experience dealing with nobles was Finch herself, being a mistress of a noble was no doubt an affair in of itself.

However, due to the fact that Asher Inanis saved her life, she was also unlikely to think too much about his words and piece them together for any hidden meaning or agenda.

\'Suffice to say, all of this kindness I\'ve been extending to them is merely to gauge their behavior. They don\'t seem greedy about taking more and instead are more or less gracious. They\'re quite an upright group in that sense, which probably has to do with the fact that Gellor seems to be quite fair and loyal.\'

Lucius recalled the time when Gellor showed some hesitance when it came to Finch, and that was when she was wielding the artifact that came from Master Cambrian.

\'Fair and loyal, but still with some doubts on his leadership and contribution to the team.\' Lucius thought silently as he waited for the healers to come and arrive.

"Lord Asher, we are quite grateful for your time and offer. Will you be staying with us here though until the healers arrive? Perhaps we are keeping you from more important business." Finch tilted her head.

While Gellor was the leader of the group, Finch seemed more willing to address Lord Asher now, not that Lucius had any problems with that.

"Of course. I would like to personally oversee that all of you are well taken care of." Lucius said. "In fact, since all of you are here… why not stay for a meal? I don\'t quite recall if I\'ve invited you all for a meal, but I am sure that you\'ll find yourselves satisfied."

"Food?" Albus asked, piquing up at the young lord\'s words. "Did Lord Asher just say that he\'s inviting us to a meal?"

He was quickly elbowed by one of the other members, Ariana. "Don\'t embarrass yourself, Albus." She hissed.

If Lucius recalled correctly, she was the one with the Serpentine Fang gift.

"We surely can\'t accept that after the healers," Gellor tried to say, while Finch gave him a look that said they needed to accept.

More or less, Lucius could see that they were divided. Not wanting to take up more space on their perceived young lord\'s time, but also wanting to be modest and polite.

They were more or less a really solid group.

"Hmm, I\'m not sure when all of you have arrived, but I do recall that hunting for the Mist Veil Beasts is quite an unforgiving task. Surely, someone like Barty could gain much from being able to recover Aether more quickly?" Lucius said. "The Air Vortex seems like something that takes a lot of Aether to use, doesn\'t it?"

"Well, that\'s true, Lord Asher…" Barty said with a mild cough. "But recovering Aether?"

"I\'m sure that you are more or less familiar with rune beast meat? I\'ve read that they help with Aether regeneration and have tried them myself." Lucius said.

"That\'s expensive, Lord Asher." Albus remarked.

"Quite so, you honor us a great deal, Lord Asher." Finch added.

"Then it\'s more or less settled then." Lucius said. "I hope you all don\'t mind accompanying me for a meal? When we last talked, I\'ve sent you all out hastily for a mission and didn\'t get a chance to know you all better."

"Know us better?" Gellor blinked, not understanding.

"It\'s easy to have a transactional and professional relationship, but I can\'t help but admit that I am rather curious of the life of a mercenary group." Lucius said.

Since Gellor looked a little hesitant, Lucius decided to play it up a little. He had pretended for almost all of his life and taking on another role was nearly second nature.

"The life of a noble is rather monotonous in a sense, so hearing the lives of mercenaries does seem adventurous, if you could indulge me, Gellor?" Lucius said.

"O-oh, of course, Lord Asher! How can we refuse?" Gellor replied. "We have lots of stories to tell."
