Matans Shooter 615

Theres only one thing we can do at this point.

Tale nodded, taking out the crystal ball.

Without knowing the extent of the Virtue Knights capabilities and facing the possibility of a clash with them, the only option left was growth.

Though we have less than a day.

Shin Nara, too, gathered the members of the Sacred Knights upon understanding these words.

As if on cue, everyone activated their crystal orbs and dispersed.

So all nations, including Minis, dispatched their knight orders?

Yes, oka-san.

Well, I expected the Vatican to notice, of course But to call Leeha again

Chiyou let out a light sigh.

It was almost a given that the storm in Ghibrid would spread far and wide. However, even Chiyou hadnt anticipated theyd catch on so quickly and react just as fast.

Probably tomorrow, the entire knight orders and players will go searching for the Divine Staff.

What the hell is this damn Divine Staff anyway? Ah, never mind. Anyway, you did well. The rest Ill have to ask someone who knows.

Ha.

I thought we stepped in it when Fibiel Madon Frakchi was dispatched here But I guess this is what they call a blessing in disguise? Huh, manage that guy well. And dont visit Juma City too often.

Understood. Then, Ill be off.

The fact that Chiyou and Sasuke could quickly gauge the Old Continents response was, of course, thanks to the spies they had hidden everywhere.

With the ability to gather information from multiple sources and verify it through their dispatched NPCs in the New Continent, they didnt experience any shortage due to gaps.

Now, then

Chiyou carefully activated the crystal ball, feeling the presence of those around.

She was already aware that Faust and Igor were hiding somewhere, watching her.

To confidently teleport in these circumstances was to inscribe her location in their mindsmeaning only she was directly connected to Rewa!

Shaaa

Chiyous shadow melted into the light.

Oh, if it isnt Chiyou.

Count, and Toon-nim. Ive come to tell you something urgent.

The dwelling of Bluebeard.

A place where no player has ever set foot, Bluebeard and Toon were seated together.

[What is it?]

It seems there are those who wish to interfere with us. Ive been keeping an eye on their movements.

I suppose just some unlucky representative is making a fuss. Isnt that right?

Bluebeard spoke as if he already knew everything.

Chiyou nodded, watching him casually eat grapes, feet propped on the table.

Thats correct. However, it seems a bit different this time. They claim they will secure the Divine Staff.

Toon jolted, raising his voice in surprise.

[Divine Staff! Is that nefarious thing still here!]

Bluebeard stopped eating his grapes.

It seems its not just still here. It was discovered near an old demon stronghold, which humans aimed for in the past.

Toon

[Yes, yes! Count.]

What are you saying? There wasnt supposed to be the Divine Staff on the land you managed.

It was supposed to be their backyard, nowhere but near the demon stronghold. As Bluebeards eyes sharpened, Toon started to stammer.

[No, there was nothing like that where I was. Please believe me!]

Well, the demon stronghold isnt just one place. sigh At that time, you were still too weak to grasp everything.

Bluebeard scratched his head with his cane.

It was clear, even to Chiyou, from his expression that he was troubled and annoyed.

The right-hand man is dead, nowhere to be seen, and theres no one else worth their salt Chiyou!

Its more like an elite force, honestly.

Though I wouldnt exactly call this few.

Nonetheless, the number wasnt small.

Excluding the general riff-raff, about three thousand people had accepted the quest through the Papal Edict.

Just combining the number from the defense knight orders of the four nations alone reached nearly 500, not to mention the general knight order NPCs, affiliated users, and the participation of most of the major guilds.

Where spirited people gathered, small disturbances were bound to occur endlessly, but as soon as a figure in a tall hat and red priest robes appeared, everyone fell silent.

Has he not arrived yet?

That, that is correct, Your Grace.

No need for such formalities in a non-official setting, bishop. We are all bishops here, arent we?

Th-thousand pardons! It is an honor for me to serve in the presence of the Cardinal himself, so please, retract such a statement.

The NPC, called a bishop, stammered, bowing his head. However, the Cardinal in red priest robes only wore a kind smile.

Understood. Then, you may call me Cardinal Romero.

If it is your wish, cardinal.

The NPC with the authority to summon an emergency decree to the Pope upon sensing Ghibrids energy is the envoy bishop to the New Continent. Yet, even such an NPC could not make a move in his presence.

Cardinal Romero.

A cardinal bishop who is also ranked amongst the top hierarchy of the Ezwen Church.

Even users not affiliated with Ezwen knew his name, such was the fame of this priest.

Meaning, he held an authority almost equal to the Pope as a plenipotentiary.

And of course, there was one reason for his dispatch here!

His Holiness really has a sense of humor, sending me in this age to search for the [Divine Staff]. Has the time come for me to wield a staff as well?

Far from it! Youre still in your prime, cardinal Romero, its not fitting to joke about such a matter.

Romero, once again, flashed that kind smile, surveying the users and NPCs around him.

Even the proud knights of the capital defense order bowed and paid their respects before Romero.

Regrettably, the person he most wished to see was not yet present.

So when will Leeha-nim arrive?

I shall check immediately. Just a moment

As the bishop mopped his brow, attempting to select users close to Leeha, a lavender light flashed on the outskirts of Juma City.

Wowwww!

Argh! Hyung!? Why now

Hey, whats with this chain teleport scroll? Sorry, Kijung!

Crushed under Kijung as they fell from the sky, Leeha moved quickly without a proper apology.

Because those gathered, including Cardinal Romero, had been waiting for Leeha.

My apologies! Im late!

Oh, Leeha-nim, really. How could you be late on such a day?

Even without Blaugrunn chattering by the side, Leeha was well aware. To make such a blunder on the first day of the search for the [Divine Staff]!

Of course, there was a very important reason.

After all, one cant head to the battlefield without their weapon, can they?

Is it my fault!? Bottleneck-ajussi was fiddling with this just before. Excuse me! Make way

Are you Leeha-nim?
