BXBX NOVEL Chapter 453 Suitable Plans For Expansion
"Young Lord Asher!" Old Man Johan along with other residents of the re education center was eager at Lucius\'s arrival, even more so than usual.
"Ah, Mister Johan. It has been a while, it is good to see you and the others here." Lucius greeted with a crafted smile on his face. "I have come to check on the results."
The reason why these people were gathered in the first place was because Kiana saw them as useful people to Asher and that they were also individuals who suffered injustice, both great and small.
Their time in the re education center filled them with a sense of purpose and calling. It was a vocation for them and a mission to do better for the world and Young Lord Asher\'s last request was something that was asked to make them work twice as harder.
During the time when Lucius explained the expansion, a great number of the existing teachers all volunteered to take part in the mission to spread to the other cities, they were eager to introduce this \'reformation\' that would change the lives of the city and its people for the better.
"Please come in right away, Young Lord Asher. We have been anxiously waiting for you. If it weren\'t for the lockdown of the city prior, we would have gone to the Inanis mansion ourselves and delivered our plans…" Old Man Johan said with a chuckle as he and the others led Lucius and Kiana inside of the rehabilitation center. "But of course, we realized that it would be a terrible thing to disturb you because you have other projects. Instead, it is far better that you come here when you find the time than the other way around, after all."
\'Interesting. Despite the fact that a criminal, Bordeaux the Mad Blade, was discovered to be in the city, there is no hint of any such fear on the faces of these people. Their hearts and mind have truly given in and are filled with such fervor.\' Lucius thought.
The re education center was spotless and shining, the corridors that they walked through was clean, almost glowing with the same spark of artifacts made for worship, and soon Lucius found himself meeting up with Old Man Johan and a few selected in an office.
These volunteers were the most brilliant among them. Not everyone was capable of reading and writing, and not everyone was sharp-witted or great at communication but out of the great number that Kiana had gathered, there were a select few that stood out and was able to present their plans to Asher and witness their founder\'s reaction.
"These are the documents, Young Lord Asher."
"Thank you. These all looked organized with care." Lucius said, choosing to offer some compliments, before opening the folder.
Lucius took a quick moment to glance at the title of the document before scanning through everything. He was a fast reader and thus was able to check the details rather quickly.
All of the people held their breaths in anticipation. Kiana was curious and tried to discreetly glance over Lucius\'s shoulder to see what the people created, but Lucius snapped the folder shut.
Silence echoed inside the room as they glanced at Asher\'s handsome features that was marred by not a single emotion.
"I have a few pointers to give to this plan, but it is overall excellent and can be implemented at once." Lucius said.
One of the people sighed in relief, their hearts nearly about to burst in anxiety. The teacher stepped forward, a fervent look on her face. "I will correct them immediately, Young Lord Asher."
Lucius spent the next few minutes explaining the issue to the woman before the woman quickly scribbled edits on the document.
Once Lucius was done, he moved on to the next set of plans and checked them at a faster speed this time and finding little to no error.
\'They are the cream of the crop here in this re education center and shall be traveling to different cities. Their hearts and mind are mostly transformed now with the \'teaching\' and \'training\' I have provided before so it is a necessity to ensure that they are not wasted when they are sent to other cities…\' Lucius thought for a moment and then glanced down at the floor. He imagined the secret laboratory beneath the re education center, which was filled with things that people who wished to avoid his ire were best to leave it unattended and untouched.
"After checking all of your work, it is clear that I can actually send all of you to the following cities that have displayed interest, in learning about our center," Lucius said. "You all will first form one team and then be sent to the first city that is closest to us. Etara\'s Cross\'s Baron Hugh will be checking to see if we can prove that there truly can be a reduction in crimes." Lucius said.
"Thank you for your trust in us, Young Lord Asher!" the people chorused as one.
"In addition, it has also occurred to me that traveling in such a large group may attract attention. It may be enough to deter some bandits and other unsavory individuals from causing any trouble, but I will be assigning a few members from the Masked Legion Mercenary to act as your guards."
The residence of the re education center stared in shock at Young Lord Asher. It was unimaginable that their founder would not only send them on a mission that they were all eager to devote themselves to but also personally fund an escort group for them.
It was quite well known that mercenaries were paid well for dangerous and important tasks.
The re education center was mostly made of volunteers who chose to humble themselves and live simpler lives that sought to change their current city\'s and kingdom\'s problems.
It meant that they did not have a lot of funding aside from what Asher has gave them at the start and could only imagine the price of such an elite group that saved the Inanis army from Viscount Drew\'s army.
They were completely unaware that the Masked Legion Mercenaries that they were eager to meet were made in the very same building where they were residing in.
