The God's Games

It seemed like all their hard work was benefiting for the people like Viscount Hereford, and it left him feeling frustrated.

Viscount Hereford didn't realize this.

He looked at Saradin's expression and tentatively asked, "If that's the case, this lord will allow you to stay in Lindblum City for two days to complete your trade. What do you think, Sir Saradin?"

Saradin twirled a curl of hair at his temple and squinted his eyes as he replied, "That's fine."

Viscount Hereford had his servants show Spicy Flavor Fairy and his group out.

Spicy Flavor Fairy was surprised that Viscount Hereford had let them leave so easily.

It seemed that nothing extra had happened, which was a relief.

Standing at the gate of the lord's mansion, Spicy Flavor Fairy turned his gaze to Hanjun, his eyes full of questions.

They had finally resolved the issue of entering the city, so now Hanjun should tell them what to do next, right?

Instead, Hanjun shrugged his shoulder and said, "What are you looking at me for? The problem is solved. It's time to find buyers. Ulon Town is still waiting for us."

Well, it seemed NPCs still weren't giving any hints.

Spicy Flavor Fairy decided to take his group on a tour of Lindblum City to get a better understanding of the situation.

Find the latest on m.v.l.e.m.p.y.r

Once the decision was made, the players gathered and chatted about the information they had just received from the lord's mansion.

Master PungPong asked casually, "I noticed that the NPCs in Lindblum City are very wary of us. That Warlock named Saradin looked at Spicy Flavor Fairy with a pretty bad expression. Is it because we're new to Lindblum City, and our reputation here isn't high enough for the NPCs to treat us better?"

This guess isn't without reason.

Spicy Flavor Fairy agreed and then thought of something else, "What do you think about Hanjun? why did Hanjun say he would come along with us but not do anything?"

He remembered that Saradin had identified him as a Priest right away, but why didn't Saradin notice Hanjun?

They had previously guessed that Hanjun might hold a higher position than Father Barry in the Church of Light and might also use light-type magic.

If Saradin could recognize him as a Priest, why couldn't he recognize Hanjun's identity?

Could it be that Hanjun is even more impressive than Saradin?

Thinking this, Spicy Flavor Fairy turned his head to see if he could catch a glimpse of Hanjun's expression.

But when he turned around, he found that Hanjun had mysteriously disappeared.

As he stopped, everyone else did too.

Master PungPong looked back and couldn't figure out what was going on, "What are you looking at?"

Spicy Flavor Fairy said, "... It looks like Hanjun is gone. Did anyone see where he went?"

Flower Deer calmly said, "I think I saw him point at somewhere and then leave on his own."

Spicy Flavor Fairy sighed.

It seemed Hanjun was confident they could complete the quest and had left without saying where he was going.

Fortunately, this was just a game, so it wasn't as frustrating as real life.

They just needed to find an NPC to trade with and complete the transaction, without worrying too much about Hanjun's whereabouts.

After they left, the Lord's Mansion didn't quiet down.

When Viscount Hereford heard from his servant that the heroes had already left, he turned his head to Saradin and asked, "Sir, do you think what they said is credible?"

Saradin relaxed in his chair and replied, "Are you asking if the God of Light has really awakened or if they really defeated the demons?"

Viscount Hereford sighed.

Saradin continued, "Aren't you clear about this? Even when you heard about the bandits in the southern mountain, you didn't care. If they've come to Lindblum City after dealing with those bandits, it's likely they're telling the truth."

Viscount Hereford gave a dry laugh, "Sir Saradin, I seem to have trouble understanding what you're saying."

Saradin snorted.

Although he had been invited to Lindblum City by Viscount Hereford, it didn't mean he had to agree with everything Viscount Hereford said.

He didn't like the Church of Light, but that didn't mean he lacked integrity.

Seeing that Viscount Hereford was silent, Saradin didn't want to make things worse.

He changed the subject to help Viscount Hereford save face, "What they said is probably accurate, but I suspect there's still someone important in the Church of Light who played a major role. That person is the key."

Viscount Hereford noticed this too and hesitated, "Are you saying that the Church of Light has a Cardinal in Ulon Town?"

The Cardinal is a position below the Pope in the Church of Light.

Since the Church of Light fell from prominence, and the last Pope was assassinated by the Order of the Shattering Light over a hundred years ago, the Church has only had a few Priests left in remote churches, with no other significant figures.

In the current situation where the Order of the Shattering Light is rampant, all the high-ranking officials of the Church of Light have gone into hiding.

No one knows where they are or what they are doing, but everyone in the Church of Light knows that if they show themselves, they will only attract endless pursuit from the Order of the Shattering Light.

If an ordinary Priest were to awaken the God of Light, neither Viscount Hereford nor Saradin would believe it.

They would be more inclined to think that a high-ranking figure from the Church of Light was in Ulon Town, using special methods to finally awaken their God, who then summoned the heroes to defeat the seemingly undefeatable demons.

Only this would persuade Viscount Hereford and Saradin.

Saradin nodded his head, agreeing with this view, "The Cardinal... No, it might be something even more significant."

The two of them exchanged a look, not voicing their most likely guess, and both of them thought that the people of Ulon Town were bringing trouble upon themselves.
