The man that was looking at them with suspicion suddenly stood. He stood up in a rush for an unknown reason while looking at them with a feeling of fright.
He didn’t say anything about his reasons. All he did was to push his chair away and run towards the window of the house.
From the looks of things, he wanted to jump through the window even though the house was two floors above the ground. One might wonder what could make him so desperate.
Legion already knew what he was about to do as soon as the thought flashed through his mind. So they didn’t let him do it.
They smacked two marks of bondage on his mind. One mark tortured his mind and incapacitated him, while the other one began drilling down the three layers of his mind into the core of his existence.
The same thing was going on with the other two. Golden Hammer and the lady had also fallen to the ground because of the pain they were feeling.
After a few seconds of pain, the three of them became blessed with extra power. Legion also became a little more familiar with them after they read through some of their thoughts.
They said, “Oh. So you three are actually friends, not subordinates of each other. One of you serves as the face of the gang, while the others do the thinking and another does the execution. That’s a good idea.”
It was the man who wanted to escape that provided that idea. He is also the thinker. As a traveler, he has the necessary tools to make decisions that will help them and their gang to survive.
The one who does the secret mobilization and execution of orders is the only lady among the three. She is a knight and a very skilled one at that. She is also the bastard daughter of a noble.
As for Golden Hammer, he is the face of the gang and the target of assassinations by those who want to disband the gang or take over his position.
Because many people don’t know that the three of them are friends, people that try to usurp him by going through his friends never have a good ending. Those people don’t know that they have already walked into a deadly trap.
Apart from this little scheme, the three of them also chose pathways that can help them match rank 4 godclads in various ways. The fact that they are one giant, one traveler, and one knight was not an accident.
This is how they’ve survived and thrived even though they are supposed to be one rank 3 leader while other gangs have leaders that are at rank 4. Legion liked this very much.
They said to the three of them, “Now that you have my blessing, you three will reach high places. The sky is the limit.”
The three of them knelt down and said, “Your will is our command, master.”
They have forgotten the pain they just experienced and have even become devoted tools for Legion to use. Legion couldn’t ask for more from their slaves.
For a while, Legion enjoyed the feeling of pride in making the right decision to come here. Then they got down to business.
The first order of business was growing stronger. So they asked their three new slaves how they could get the divine flesh that they wanted.
As gang leaders, they have access to a lot of information and channels in Reinfield that Legion had no idea about. The three of them were able to help them acquire the divine flesh of the pathway of killing and the pathway of undying immediately.
They even said that they would be able to get the divine flesh of the pathway of the telepath if given some time. As for the divine flesh of the pathway of slavery, they couldn’t get it, but they knew who might be able to get it for them.
Legion became more and more glad with their decision to pick these three as their slaves, even though their original intention was for Golden Hammer and the other two were just by luck.
Legion also asked them to get the rank 4 divine flesh for their three respective pathways too. It is because they want to upgrade the strength of their slaves after they advance to rank 4.
Legion has the confidence in being able to help them reach rank 4 by using Hypnotize on them. This divine ability won’t remove all the danger that they will face in assimilating the divine flesh, but it will reduce it by at least 50%.
This will require a long time of mental conditioning, though. It is not something that can be done in a day. Legion will have to take time to sculpt their thoughts as tools loyal to their faceless master alone. When those thoughts become their memories, they won’t easily fall into the temptation of the divine flesh.
Legion doesn’t mind this work, as if it will give them the opportunity to train their Hypnotize divine ability. It will also give them time to complete the advancement requirements that they need to complete and the time to acquire all the divine flesh that they need.
They also don’t mind the extra cost of the rank 4 divine flesh. Each rank 4 divine flesh costs 1,600 gold coins. They want to get seven rank 4 divine flesh, so it will cost them 11,200 gold coins.
They have 132,000 gold coins in their bank account, so they don’t lack 11,200 gold coins. Even if they do, they can still earn more by selling all the divine flesh they stole from the lamp bearers’ base.
Besides, they have the 5,735 energy waters that they looted before, the 3,400 liters that Black Knife got for them before they left Ivory Town, and the 8,300 liters that they stole from Silver Mirror’s stash in Reinfield before they moved out of his place.
