Going back to where the other victims were… Theo began to heal them using his potions and erase the traumatic memories from their minds.

Jerrar looked at a beastly man with a wolf's head and asked, "Are you sure? Is it really the Kenedy Clan?"
"Yes. I was able to find the Kenedy Clan crest in one of the stripped rooms." The wolf beast-man confirmed.
"How dare they?!" Jerrar punched the table in front of him, tearing it apart into a thousand pieces. He was furious when he woke up and discovered that his treasures were stolen. And to top it off, the potential offenders were the clan who had opened doors for them in the past and received them with open arms.
"Was it with these intentions that they let us stay with your clan?" Jerrar began to wonder.

Theo, who had already helped everyone who had been through Mauricio Kenedy's experiments, was now mentally exhausted. It had taken a lot of effort from his mental power due to the level of control required for the delicate process.
Upon returning with all of them, Dennis, who had been put to sleep, had awakened. He saw the woman crying a river of tears next to Theo. He was momentarily stunned when he saw her looking in his direction, but soon he ran into his mother's arms while crying loudly in joy.
"Mommy!" Dennis screamed loudly as he hugged his mother tight.
"My son, my precious son!" His mother hugged him back just as tight.
The other parents and children who saw this scene identified with this scene. It wasn't that long ago that they experienced just as happy a reunion.
A thin black man with messy hair, who was married to two women and had three children by his side, approached Theo and asked, "Theo, right?! My name is Ezekiel, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you have done for my dear family and me!"
As he finished speaking, his eyes, that were sharp as a sword, softened as he knelt on the floor and bowed toward Theo. Over his entire life, even when he was deeply tortured, he never submitted like this to anyone. But to do that to his saviour? If he didn't at least do that, could he still live with himself?
The other people who saw his actions also knelt on the floor and bowed down towards Theo as they shouted loudly.
"THANK YOU VERY MUCH!"
Their cries of thanks were so loud that they echoed throughout the Dimensional Room for more than a minute. It was a proclamation that came from their very souls. This was not just a simple giving of thanks to someone who helped them, but yes, to them, Theo was their saviour. It was not unlike the worship of their own religious figures, if not even more exalting!
Theo, who was not used to this kind of treatment, was a little embarrassed to have so many men, women and children bowing down to him in and thanking him so earnestly. He scratched his head, with his cheeks blushing a little red, but soon he regained his composure.
"Please stand! I'm glad that you want to thank me, and I'm even happier that you guys seem to want to bow to me, but I'm not used to that kind of thing." Theo laughed obliviously.
They soon agreed to his request, but not before making a mental note of Theo's actions. In fact, they were a little surprised by his reaction, there were even some older women and men who found his response rather cute.
Because of this, some mothers surrounded Theo and started hugging him as they pampered him, treating him as their own son.
"Wow, your parents must be so proud of you!" A middle-aged woman with long pink hair said as she hugged him.
The other women also agreed while hugging him, and they even took turns to hug him. It was a bizarre situation for Theo.
But… he didn't really find it unpleasant. These actions reminded him of his mother in his past life, and his heart warmed as he felt the warmth of a mother they were giving him.
The men came to talk to him, too. Despite being more clumsy, they soon got used to being in Theo's presence and became more comfortable talking to him.
"Big brother, where are we?" A girl with blond hair up to her shoulder and brown eyes approached Theo and asked. She was a 10-year-old Demi-Human cat.
Theo crouched down to her height and put his hand on her head. Although he found this question a little difficult to answer, so he avoided the subject a bit, "This place is a secret, but soon I'll take you somewhere else, okay?"
The little girl didn't think much of it and answered with a sweet smile, "Okay, big brother."
Theo smiled at her back and then looked at all those who were in the Dimensional Room. He then stated, "I know some of you are confused and don't know what this place is, but believe me, it's better if you don't know."
Seeing them nodding, Theo continued on, "Although I can't say much about this place where we are, I'm going to take you to somewhere you will also be safe and may know a bit better. Anyway, for that, I'm going to have to put you to sleep, okay?"
Even though they're confused by all that, the adults, especially, could have imagined that it was related to a secret of their saviour and that it was not something he wanted to reveal. Despite their curiosity, they nodded in agreement and did not ask any further about this place.
"Okay, I think I should start doing that now. Well, don't worry, it won't hurt at all when I put you to sleep." Theo said and started to walk by each of them and put them to sleep one by one. But of course, even before they fell to the ground, he used his mental power to cushion the fall.
With all that said and done, Theo left the Dimensional Room.
Going to the back of the orphanage, Theo started taking out the people from inside the Dimensional Room one by one. When he finished removing them all, he used his mental power once again to wake them up.
