The group below me begins to shift and talk amongst themselves.

A few speak up and ask specific questions about things from general city growth in the future, to the reason why I'm fighting Sector 1, and finally how I'll be able to train them and grant them power if they wish.

One by one, I explain in further detail our situation.

The majority of people already knew there was a war going on just from the way I conduct myself, and the demonstration of power against the gang leaders previously. Before they even agreed to serve me, many felt the mana shockwaves of my battle against the Colossal and already assumed the worst.

Considering this, not a single person decides to sever our link and take my offer to leave back to Sector 4.

That doesn't mean they all have combat abilities and wish to fight though.

Over two thirds of the crowd chooses to stay and not fight. They're hoping to become business owners, simple workers for those businesses, or even artists living a simple life in the city.

I direct all of them to consult Maurice's builder team, and work over the details in the guild hall with Abby once this meeting is over.

My words to the architect are heard by everyone as they disappear into the octagonal empty hall.

"That's right, I put in the order for your building materials and should have them delivered by tonight. Anyone that has special housing needs, or would like to establish a business, tonight will be the soft deadline to get these things submitted. A large construction project will begin tomorrow."

Once they all go inside, there are 37 individuals that stay standing in the square.

I do a scan through all of them, and find these are certainly the strongest ones here. Almost everyone in this group is over level 150, and a majority of them have useful basic combat skills like Dagger Arts, Swordsmanship, Body Hardening, and various stat buffing skills.

Of these brave recruits, 3 in particular stand out the most to me.

I point into the crowd.

"You three, step forward."

My gaze locks with each of theirs as I point to them individually and they step forward.

"State your names and abilities."

A short bulky blond-haired man steps forward first.

"The name is Francis, I wield earth magic."

Next, a thin dark-featured young man with a handsome face steps up next.

"I'm Andy. I have a wind magic skill awakened."

Then lastly, a woman with orange hair, freckles, athletic build, and sharp eyes speaks up.

"The name's Rachel. I control fire."

As they begin to realize why I singled them out, I use my body double skill to split into two parts.

There are some wide eyes from the crowd, but no one reacts too much as my copy steps forward and talks.

"If you would like to get stronger, I'll be providing you all with gear, resources, ability training, and power leveling indefinitely in the dungeons just outside town. Split into 3 groups behind one of these element users. These will be your team leaders. Of course, everything will be overseen by me, but we will begin training right away."

Everyone does as my double says, and gets into groups behind each element user and they all follow to a nearby warehouse for gear to be sorted out and for my double to change up the teams a bit.
