《Epic of The Demonic Sage 》Chapter 156: Dionysia Brewery
Advertisement
Now that Lucius and Kiana were seeing what was once on paper, in reality, they were impressed.
"Ah! Young Lord Asher is finally here!" the voice of a woman came from the distance.
Lucius looked to the source and saw that it was none other than Alessa who had called out. She was standing at the main door of the brewery along with about forty workers and John who kept a secure eye on things.
Today was the first day of the brewery and he definitely did not want anything to go wrong. If anything untoward happened, John would not know how he would explain himself to the Count.
The workers, who heard their employer's words, followed along her line of sight and saw the handsome figure of Lucius approaching from the main gate of the brewery.
"It really is Young Lord Asher! I can't believe someone from the Count's family is coming to officiate the ceremony." One of the workers said with excitement.
"I never thought the owner would be so influential as to get young Lord Asher to come here." Another Worker commented.
All of these workers had been recruited from various places in the city and had been vetted strictly to ensure they would not spread what happened within the four walls of the compound. But Lucius knew that it would not be fully assured, thus he especially got some of the loyal servants from the Inanis family to join them covertly.
They would act as if they were newly recruited to work as well and listen to their fellow employee's words. Then they would be doing daily reports of events to John and Lucius. This was to ensure that they were not going to have any problems.
Lucius gazed at the few people who were the Inanis family's servants and saw that they showed the same level of excitement as the others.

'Hmm, at least they are decent at acting.' Lucius thought to himself.
Lucius walked up to Alessa before greeting her with a nobleman's etiquette.
"It is my pleasure to officiate this ceremony… Lady Alessa." Lucius said without a hitch in his voice.
Alessa, who heard her name being called along with the title of a Lady, made her heart flutter. Even if she didn't really care about nobility as much, every woman had dreamed of being a princess when she was a little girl and but becoming that was impossible for most.
The title of a noble lady was the closest that they could get to, and now she had finally attained that. Plus, with the genuine look of respect that Lucius had on his face, only made Alessa pleased further.
Her faith and loyalty to the Inanis family were fully cemented today.
"Should we get this started now?" Lucius asked in a calm tone.
"As you please, Young Lord Asher. The dais is all yours." Alessa replied.
Lucius walked onto the dais and looked at all the workers with a confident smile on his face. It was neither too big to seem comical nor too small to seem inadequate, it was just perfect.
The women and girls in the group of workers were already feeling happy seeing his handsome face.
"I'm sure most of you already know who I am, but for the formalities let me introduce myself," Lucius spoke and took a pause, making the workers pay attention to him.
"I am Asher Inanis, the Young Lord of Inanis family, son of Count Gabriel and the future Lord of the Land Of Etara!" Lucius announced.
"Greetings to Young Lord Asher! Greetings to Young Lord Asher!" The workers all replied with excitement.

"Now then, the reason I am here for… The officiation ceremony of this establishment. I was informed that there are certain restrictions currently put on your with regards to the identity of this establishment and its ownership and thus I follow them too.
Now then, with my authority as the Heir of Inanis, in the name of Goddess Etara whose domain we live in, I declare this place… Dionysia Brewery!" Lucius announced.
"YEAAAAAH!" The sounds of the workers' cheering resounded in the compound for about ten seconds before they finally stopped.
The workers didn't really care about the name of the brewery as much, and didn't even know where the name Dionysia had come from. This name was of course, the choosing of Lucius himself.
He had picked the name of a god from one of the many worlds that he had seen, Dionysus the Greek god of wine.
How the name was picked was also quite interesting. They were originally going to blindly pick a name from a closed box after everyone had put their choices in. The ones who put the names in were of course, the Count, the Countess, Lucius, Kiana, John, Alessa and even Donald.
After the first pick, the name that was chosen was Gold Heart Brewery. This was the choice dropped by Donald!
But then the count and countess didn't really like it and decided to see what other choices there were in the list and when they saw Lucius's choice, they were intrigued. It was a word they had never seen and asked Lucius what it meant.
The other were interested in seeing it as well and wanted to know more.
It was then that Lucius told them that he came upon that name when he was studying in the library, which was an utter lie, but they didn't need to know that. Lucius had not cared that much when he put the name in the poll, but now that they were interested in it he needed to make up a story for it.
The Count and everyone else didn't even question him much and decided to go with it right away. Donald also admitted that this name was way better than the one he had chosen and sounded special.
And thus a god from another world got associated once again with his domain that was wine, but at the cost of his name being distorted.

Many Minded
Synopsis: Issa Pyxis, Spacer orphan and illegal heretic, graduated from living on the streets to running with a gang years ago, but now it looks like that’s all going to change. Her inheritance, more specifically who—or what—she is, is catching up with her, and on a planet with the Emperor’s inquisitors slinking around in every shadow, nowhere is safe and no one can be trusted. What will she do? A cyberpunk story about identity, loneliness, covert infiltration, evil dystopias, and much more! Features: - Cyborgs and cyberpunk galore - This is indented to be somewhat “rational” and “hard” Sci-Fi story - Original Fiction however parts of my worldbuilding are inspired by other Sci-Fi stories (duh) Rationale: The future is cool, AIs are kickass, and questions about consciousness are simultaneously existential and yet unanswered. To me, this story is a vehicle for exploring these topics, and also, I wanted to write a story where the protagonist was unafraid of themselves and where their self is more like a git-repo than a meat computer. Disclaimer: This story primarily takes place in what we’d describe as a “cyberpunk dystopia” with some extra technocracy, autocracy, and religious fervor thrown into the mix, so there will be some “grittiness” in this story. Caveat emptor. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character and other characters in my story can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way they view the world isn’t always objective truth (if such a thing even exists) nor do their views and opinions necessarily reflect the views of me, the author. Cover art by me! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
