Episode 50

7.

About 100 meters away from the temporary tent, members of the Goblin Guild and individuals in white coats were in a standoff.

The white coats were familiar from the last encounter at the Guro District gate. They belonged to the Baekmyeong Church.

There were about thirty of them.

While no combat had broken out, the tension in the air was palpable.

Without the lighting set up by the Goblin Guild, it would have been too dark to distinguish anyone in the pitch-black night.

Why would they come here at such a late hour?

“What brings such esteemed guests here at this hour?”

CEO Choi Seojin advanced slowly, speaking in his usual affable tone.

A man stepped out from the ranks of the white-coated group and approached us quietly. He glanced at me and CEO Choi alternately before bowing politely.

“Nice to meet you, CEO Choi Seojin. I am Shim Jinkyu, the head of the Busan Diocese of the Baekmyeong Church. I apologize for the sudden visit at this late hour. We mean no harm, so we’d appreciate it if you could refrain from hostility.”

“Breaking into someone’s operational area without permission and claiming no ill intent... isn’t that contradictory?”@@novelbin@@

“We apologize for the rudeness; we came here to prevent an unforeseen disaster. For that, we deeply apologize.”

“If words could resolve every issue, why would there be wars? Don’t you agree, Pope Kim?”

“Indeed.”

I nodded, quietly observing Shim Jinkyu and the Baekmyeong Church members behind him.

Previously, they had a faint magical aura, but now I could clearly sense divine power from all thirty of them.

Moreover, the individuals weren’t just ordinary followers. Considering how recently they’d obtained divine power, each one seemed to have considerable faith.
