Chapter 287:
Soon enough, the day passed.
The disaster at the Moonlight Gate was beginning to fade from memory.
After a long time, word came that the Cathedral was gathering again.
For the first time since the Moonlight Gate disaster.
The living room.
Looking at the letter, which said to meet rather than exchange information, I muttered to myself.
Cathedral, a place where only S-class villains who lead an organization gather.
It was founded by Celeste, the Saint of Light, who is considered the number one villain in the world in terms of power and influence.Findd new stories at novelhall.com
In the original story, its only now that its beginning to take center stage.
Especially since the world has been torn apart by the Moonlight Church
What happens now?
I rested my chin on my desk and pondered the question.
For now, I dont need to worry about my influence within Cathedral. Ive already proven myself with the Moonlight Gate, and I have Katana, Li Xiaofeng, and Atlas all on my side.
That said, Im not without my problems.
Ive been acting a little too outspoken lately, and some people might question whether Im a villain or not. Ive been openly working with Stardus on the air, and foreign news outlets have been reporting favorably on me lately.
Of course its none of my business.
Of course, that was irrelevant.
There are plenty of ways to get out of this, like blaming the heroes, catching people off guard, didnt you guys work with the heroes during the Moonlight Gate disasterand most importantly, I have friends at the Cathedral who trust me completely apart from Atlas to Katana.
The only problem is Celeste
I guess Ill just have to wait and see.
With that thought, I prepared for the meeting.
***
Cathedral finally arrived.
Greetings, Egostic.
Stepping into the once-white cathedral, I followed the priests words across the long hallway to the Round Table Room.
And when I arrived, I saw familiar faces.
Hello, Egostic! Here you are.
Ah, Egostic. Youre here.
Egostic!
Im a little late today, but I see Atlas, Li Xiaofeng, and Katana, who are already seated. Our red Mohican head also saw me and bowed.The Mohican seems to have survived the Moonlight Gate disaster. Glad to see.
Gee, how are you all doing?
And with that, I walked over to everyone with a big smile on my face.
.
The eyes of the villains at the round table turned to me and as I smiled and walked toward my colleagues, I quickly scanned the table with my masked eyes.
As I did so, I could sense a range of emotions in their gazes. Curiosity, wonder, admiration, doubt, nervousness, and even fear.
Yes.
She looked around the table for a moment, then said.
Her eyes are closed, how does she know, does she sense any aura?
While I was thinking about that, Celeste continued in a clear, mystical voice.
Ive heard that some of our colleagues have passed away, and I offer my condolences to them. May God watch over them.
Some had died, after all.
Or rather, God watch over them sounds funny. A god who watches over villainsI guess shes not wrong.
Thats why Ive called you here today, to make sure the dust has settled and that everyone is alive, even if you dont want to share any information.because I have something to share with you.
And so, naturally, the time for information sharing returned.
Celeste opened her mouth and what she said next was very revealing.
She hadnt expected to share it with them today.
Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see from this incidentGods exists in this world.
Information about the gods of this world.
I had been nodding and listening until this point. Ah, is she going to release information about the gods on this occasion?
until I heard the next words.
And this time, the god who caused this disaster is an evil god.
?
I froze at the suddenness of her words.
Eun-woos father, who was diligently blocking the dimension in a white space that looked like it was going to make him go mentally ill, was the mysterious evil god
TLN: In case some of you forgot Moon God, its Eun-woos father.
Then she continued.
It was a long, rambling speech, but in the end.
Because the Sun God bent down and watched over us, this disaster was stopped.
It ended with a sun salute.
Hey, I stopped the gate with Eun-woo. The gate was closed by the Moon God.
I didnt ask, of course.I didnt know what she was up to.
Anyway, just like that, we exchanged a few more words, and the meeting was quickly over, leaving me wondering why it was called at all.
Well, at least they didnt talk about me, so the aggro was less likely to be directed at me. I was expecting a mention of the Moonlight Gate, but thankfully there wasnt one.
Well, shall we be going then?
And just like that, everyone was on their feet, and I was on my way.
Oh. And Egostic.
You, uh, can I see you for a second?
From the far end of the round table, where Celeste sat, her voice echoed to me.
Yes?
I stiffened, and couldnt help but turn my head.
There, I could only see Celestes silent, closed-eyed, smiling figure.
What are you doing to me?
