The people of the rehabilitation center once again increased in number when Lucius arrived at the hall and he glanced at the faces.

A multitude of new recruits, men and women, young and old were now in the ranks and waited for the first time that they would hear of Young Lord Asher address them.

"Mister Johan, Young Lord Asher is really the one who started all of this?" a young man asked.

"Yes, all of this wouldn\'t have been possible if it were not for him." Old Man Johan whispered to one of the latest recruits. "Listen to him well. When he speaks, it is far better than any of the teachers here. What we teach is what we have first learned from him."

"I see…" The young man waited in awe.

"Hmm, this is perfect timing. There\'s a lot more than when I last visited." Lucius said to himself as he made his way to the stage and greeted the people of the rehabilitation center.

Gone was the dark expression that he showed the criminal earlier, and it was replaced by a light and easy expression that put everyone who saw him at ease.

"I\'ve only been gone for some time but once again I am overjoyed to see new faces who\'ve agreed to help our cause," Lucius said charismatically. "The timing couldn\'t be more proper for everyone because the rehabilitation center will be expanding, so this is most fortunate."

The news made a great silence fall over the people in awe, and Lucius knew that his control over the people in the rehabilitation center was complete.

Even those who did not receive the Mark of Obedience were almost all completely indoctrinated by the others before them that they all looked at Asher with fervor and hunger that might have equaled that of a Lost searching for Hell Energy and Demonic Mana.

Possibly even more.

People could be even sometimes scarier and even more instinctive than the Lost with how they all searched and sought desperately for meaning and purpose.

Lucius used it to his advantage now and would give them what they want. A cause and a calling that would sweep them up all into the land of Etara to do his bidding.

"When we first started this rehabilitation center, it was Kiana who reached out to the first of you and brought you here for a chance to correct and amend the error of those in the past. And now once again, the opportunity becomes open once more, not only for those of Inanis City but to other cities as well.

"We have already accomplished much here in Inanis City, I hope that all of you are aware of the achievements of the rehabilitation center in changing not only your lives but that of other people, and now I hope that there will be people here who are willing to extend the same change here to others who are in dire need as well."

Lucius gauged the reaction of the people and all of them were surprised but greedily and readily drank in his words as they listened attentively.

"During my visit to Etara\'s Cross, I was able to talk with many nobles and they also share the same burden as Inanis City once has; a multitude of individuals that are in dire need of reform and instruction.

The situation alarmed me and so I promised them that I would lend them my aid, but I cannot do it alone… it is only through our collective efforts that the change in Inanis City became possible and I hope that it can be recreated elsewhere.

Of course, I cannot make any of you do anything. That is why I am here to ask how many teachers would be willing to spread their teachings. The job here in Inanis City will continue, but your skills are also needed elsewhere if you are willing to go there." Lucius said.

Once he had finished his word, the first of the group of teachers that Lucius taught all eagerly rose to their feet and raise their hands alongside the newer batches as well.

"We would like to teach and inform the unreformed!"

"We wish to serve and we will continue to serve!"

"Young Lord Asher, we will do as you say! Tell us where to go and we will head there at once!"

"I am most pleased that there are many who wish to help this endeavor. It seems like all of you are so eager to even leave at once, but as much as I praise this fervor, we cannot do it simply and just walk out of the door and head to new cities… instead, I would like the brilliant and capable minds of the people of this center to formulate a few plans of how the operation will proceed. I will personally check to see how viable they are and these will be discussed another time when I return."

The people of the rehabilitation glanced at each other, it was a chance to speak with Young Lord Asher in person and in private too.

During the early days, Young Lord Asher was able to speak and communicate with everyone but as the organization had grown to an immense size, a great number weren\'t able to speak with him in person.

Thus Lucius\'s words inspired them to work hard, and many already formulated plans in their head of what they would do in their operations.

"That will be all, thank you," Lucius smiled and walked off the stage. Old Man Johan took over for him while he and Kiana greeted some of the people, but then excused themselves to head back to the Inanis Mansion.

When they were finally able to leave the rehabilitation center, it was actually almost evening and time had passed so swiftly.

"Everyone was excited to meet with you." Kiana had said in their carriage. "I thought we would never leave."

"We have other matters to attend to so we cannot," Lucius said. He met some new faces and even put the Mark of Obedience on them, and it had drained him a little.

However, once he arrived at the Inanis Mansion, he wasn\'t able to rest at once. There were some people who had just arrived too.
