On the very next day, a carriage from Inanis mansion was sent to the re-education center privately. Most of the residents in the place were actually surprised when Lord Asher appeared in the open with Kiana, but then many knew that he holed up in the laboratory.

Of course, these people weren\'t very sure if he really had been there for the entire duration, but they were all in awe either way.

Among them, Old Man Johan greeted Lord Asher as he reached the outside of the building.

"Lord Asher!" Johan greeted him with a reverential bow. "If we had known that your presence was here all this this time then we would have prepared a proper meal."

"You do not have to worry about such things. Keep up with the good work here in the re-education center, I trust that everything has been going well?" Lucius asked.

If there was anything that needed to be fixed and premeditated upon, then Lucius was actually willing to check.

Even though Lucius was the one who had established this place and done his best to keep everything accordingly to the process he had provided them for, after some time, there was a chance that there\'d be some slowing down in terms of effectiveness.

"Everything has been going well, Lord Asher!" Old Man Johan reassured. "The flow of the criminals are always there, but they have experienced a reduction unlike when everything first started. One of the secretaries have made files on it. Actually it\'s something that we\'ve been meaning to show you alongside the graduates of the re-education center."

"Is that so? I\'ll be happy to take a look over the document once I visit here again if everything has been going steadily." Lucius dipped his head in acknowledgment. "In regards to the type of criminals here, how are the state? Petty crimes or… has there been any major crimes?"

Old Man Johan found himself honored by Lord Asher\'s manners. As always, despite their difference in station, it was clear that Lord Asher never made anyone feel different from him.

"Major crimes are quite few and in between, Lord Asher." Old Man Johan said. "Of course, there are some… but they are being dealt with as always."

Lucius nodded. He was naturally interested in the benefit of Inanis City\'s reduction in crimes, but it was always the criminals with the heavier crimes that interested him.

With his plans to make the Masked Legion into an actual legion, it became necessary to have a steady inflow of people with extreme crimes and useful gifts.

\'At the moment, it\'s easier to simply use these individuals who are sentenced to death, but the time will come where I\'ll be able to transform whomever I choose with ease.\' Lucius thought.

"Asher, we are ready to leave." Kiana called out to him.

"Then I shall be leaving now." Lucius bade the old man and the other people from the re-education center goodbye and headed to the Inanis mansion.

Upon their arrival, both Kiana and Lucius intended to make it seem that they\'ve only left a safe house.

The driver who had picked them up from the re-education center no doubt wouldn\'t say a single word to the Black Rose Knights, and so, Kiana and Lucius left the carriage with ease.

"Welcome back, Lord Asher!" Neta and other servants inside of the mansion greeted them at once.

"Everyone take our belongings inside of the carriage." Kiana instructed at once.

They had left many things in the re-education center and among them had been luggage to make their deceit more believable.

Once the servants have left, it was at that point that the three Black Rose Knights appeared out of the hallway and bowed down to Lord Asher.

"A safe return to you, Lord Asher!" one of the knights said and was chorused by his other companions.

"Thank you." Lucius nodded and he tried to slip past them, but the path was more or less blocked.

Not in an intentional or obvious way, because Lucius could have ordered them to move away, but they were present in a cloying and annoying way.

"We heard that you went to a safe house, Lord Asher. It is a shame that you did not bring at least one of us to use as your guard."

"Ah yes, that would have been nice, but the preparations were already made even before the arrival of your company… and it is something that only the most trusted of the Inanis family uses. Outsiders aren\'t usually taken there."

"Of course. It\'s just that we were given orders by His Majesty himself to aid the Count and his family, and it would have been something we could have assisted with regardless, Lord Asher." It was the same nosy knight that Lucius encountered before.

It was probably because their station was that belonging to the king of Grantz private vassals that they were able to speak freely to nobles as they represented the king himself.

It also wouldn\'t be strange if they were also from a noble bloodline either, now that Lucius considered it.

"Lord Asher, we really should get going and greet the Count and Countess…" Kiana\'s words quickly fell to deaf ears as the Black Rose Knight cleared his throat and approached them.

"On our last conversation, we weren\'t able to discuss the incident with your attempted assassination, Lord Asher. It is a delicate matter that I do not wish to intrude upon, after all some of my companions have taken to Aisse territory upon the Count\'s orders, and there was that informant who had testified the testament of your statement on the assassin\'s identity… but would it still be possible to discuss it with you again?"

"Is it truly that necessary?" Lucius raised a brow. "We have found the answers."

"Well… even though the informant said yes on this individual being Biroy, we still haven\'t actually been able to check on the body of the assassin."

"I\'m afraid that at this point, one would rather let the body remain in the ground than to dig it up at this point." Lucius commented. "Let sleeping dogs lie."
