Chapter 202: First Recruits

Outside...

Outside, everyone exchanged glances before they began to talk, the image of the man holding the greatsword still fresh in their minds.

"What do you think we should do?" they began to discuss, their voices filled with uncertainty. 

They had just witnessed the display of power that Lucius had shown them, and it left them bewildered.

"It's too dangerous. If he's that strong, why does he even need help?" one of them denied the idea instantly, sparking a debate among the group.

"He doesn't have the numbers, that's why," one person observed.

"Still, I have a feeling... no, I know he can wipe out my entire group of 20 if we clash," another man openly admitted, expressing his concerns.

"Isn't it better to be on his good side, then?" one person countered.

"Sure... and when he orders me to go to the frontline, I will just say 'Yes' and throw my life away? Are you guys seriously considering it?" another member questioned.
