After Rei first brought the group together, the founding members of the Revolutionaries—Ben, Emilia, Luc, Levi, Arizona, and Alya—stayed behind in Genos Town while Rei traveled. One evening, gathered in their cramped inn, the reality of their situation set in.
"It's time we find a permanent base for the Revolutionaries," Ben said, leaning over a map.
"The problem is money," Arizona pointed out bluntly.
Luc reached into his coat. "Rei left us his share, but it won't be enough. I can pull from my personal savings, but don't worry—once we are official, the funding will follow."
Levi nodded. "I have my military pension. I'll contribute that too. We have Rei to thank for the blueprints and research that will make us valuable to the kingdoms." Levi did not mentioned that Rei was the one who broke the 1000 records as that was a country level secret.
"We're in as well," Arizona and Alya added. With their combined gold, the search began.
Emilia said "I have some money from my adventurers and teacher days that will do as well"
The next day, the team scouted Genos Town for a headquarters. The market was too crowded and obvious. The residential areas were too risky—they didn't want to put innocent families in the crossfire. The dungeons were far too dangerous for a long-term stay.
Finally, Levi returned with a grin. "I found it. Follow me."
He led them out of the city to a secluded stretch of land nestled between a dense forest and a wide, rushing river.
"The river provides water, and the forest gives us natural cover to hide our movements," Luc noted, approving of the tactical advantage.
"What about the wild beasts?" Emilia asked.
"Training," Levi replied with a shrug. "We can use the monsters to sharpen the soldiers."
With the location settled, Ben took charge. "Luc and I will handle the negotiations. Arizona and Levi, you contact the King. Emilia and Alya, you start the recruitment process."
Over the next few months, the base transformed from a plain field into a fortified headquarters. The political wheels began to turn. King Heinz of Astria arrived in person, accompanied by King Reyland of Houlhart, King Vistara of Weiss, and the Great Scholar Oliver.
King Reyland brought fifty elite soldiers as per his deal with Rei then he pointed to 10 of his own men and said. "these ten men are my personal guard. They will fight for you and, in exchange, you will supply me with Rei's sorcery books."
"I will fund you directly from the Weiss treasury according to my deal with Rei," King Vistara added, signing a parchment. "But I expect results."
King Heinz officially registered them as a legitimate organization, while Scholar Oliver left a team of researchers behind to help document Rei's findings. Interestingly, Oliver declined military research. "The three kingdoms are in balance right now," he explained. "If one gets too much military power, it could start a war we can't stop. Just give me the academic discoveries."
The fifty soldiers stood in a line before their new leaders. Alya walked past them, her eyes cold. "What weak soldiers," she muttered. Suddenly, she used a burst of wind magic to sweep a soldier's legs out from under him. He crashed to the ground, clutching his shins.
"You are all so weak," Emilia added with disgusted expression, echoing Alya's harsh tone. "Are you even capable of being soldiers, or are you just here to be meat shields?"
The men grew angry, but one soldier in the front stepped forward, his face determined just like how the face a soldier should be. "I'll show that I am qualified to be a soldier."
Alya kicked his legs just like the first man. This time, the soldier took the hit. His legs trembled violently, and he groaned in pain, but he refused to fall.
"Now that's the spirit," Alya smirked.
As the building was completed, Ben and Luc ensured it was structurally perfect, checking for any hidden weaknesses or ways to be manipulated by spies. In order to honor their founders, they made and hung eight paintings in the main hall: Levi, Luc, Arizona, Alya, Emilia, Ben, Tenko, and Rei.
The portraits of Tenko and Rei were covered with blackened glass, placed high above the others to keep the true identities of their ultimate leaders a secret so as to not let anyone discover it. They even made the paintings only because they wanted to make sure to keep the true leaders of this organization there and remember them.
Soon Divisions were formed:
Warrior Division: Led by Luc and Levi.
Mage Division: Led by Arizona and Alya.
Rei's works then came and after recruiting some blacksmiths they formed the magic guns which then created another division.
Firearms Division: Led by Levi, who became obsessed with the magic guns forged from Rei's blueprints.
Ben and Emilia learned firearms from Levi, sword training from Luc, magic from Arizona and Alya, did paper works related to the revolutionaries and soon the other nobles sent part of their soldiers and the number of soldiers grew from 50 to 200, Levi during the this time also created Asgard and during that time a person named Eric also came having sent by Rei for the role of a spy so Luc trained Eric on how to become a spy and then sent him to Mystic church sect so they kept getting information about the Mystic church, soon then Dallas and Aria were recruited as well thus creating 3 more divisions .
Magic Formation Division: led by Aria, Primary focus is on creating multi-attribute magic formations using Rei's blueprints and her own original works.
Weapon Division: led by Dallas, Primary focus is on creating magic weapons using Rei blueprints, some of her own original works and ether cannon.
Accessory Divisions: Led by the new recruits, Aria and Dallas, Primary focus is on creating accessories that uses both magic formation and weapons both for protection and destruction purposes.
Aria used Rei's discoveries on multiple attributes to create unique magic formations. Dallas used blueprints to build the Ether Cannon, a weapon of massive power. Together, they created protective accessories and enchanted gear that made their small army feel like a legion. Even Ben and Emilia trained in their divisions to learn how to create and use weapons created by them.
As the organization progress bad omens started coming, starting with Eric reports. Eric's reports were chilling. The Church was hunting for Rei, and Rei's own sister, Hanna, had fallen into darkness beyond redemption. They searched for any evidence regarding Rei's family locations, but the trail was cold. Also Ben's sister was on move to find a way to kill Ben.
The peace didn't last either. The Einhart family nobles who were faithful to Ben's sister began an invasion under her command, threatening the stability they had worked so hard to build. It was then that Kaiser along with others arrived, with the news that Rei was in grave danger.
Hearing that their friend and founder was at risk, Ben didn't hesitate. "Prepare the men," he ordered. The Revolutionaries were going to war against inside and outside forces.
