It was when I turned away from Kyle and took a few steps towards my room.

Something suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of me, and I stopped.

“……?”

When I slightly raised my head, I saw a man.

Purple eyes and silver hair. A good-looking face with white skin and contrasting red lips.

He has broad shoulders and is slightly shorter than Kyle, but he’s still rather tall. Is he in his early 20s?

“……”

When I stepped to the side, he also did the same.

“……?”

Moving to the other side again, he took the same way.

What are you trying to do?

I told him with a slight frown,

“Would you mind getting out of my way?”

But instead of moving away, he smiled softly.

“I’m a little sad.”

It was a mellow smile, but it made my spine chill.

I had the strange feeling that was ingrained in me before.

“You don’t even recognize me.”

His voice reached my ears.

Who is it? As soon as I thought about it, the chat window flickered in front of me.

[The connection with the oracle is lost]

What?

I didn’t even press the deactivate button, but my connection to the gods was broken.

As I was perplexed, he parted his lips again,

“Will you remember if you see this?”

Then, he clenched his fist and opened his hand, revealing a silver coin with a murky light in his palm.

“……!”

I took a breath in surprise.

Because I finally figured out who he was.

The Deviamon Wizard Guild’s guild master!

At that time, I could feel another presence behind me.

“What happened to the temple, Baron?”

When I heard that, my eyes widened.

Baron? The head of the Deviamon Guild is a baron?

The man frowned and slowly turned to Kyle.

“I’ve come to investigate because the case for the temple’s annex collapse is being finalized.”

“The Lord himself?”

“Well, it’s the High Priest’s request, so I must comply.”

Kyle nodded and went on,

“It must be a false rumour that Vester is pretending to build the temple.”

Those words dwelled in my head.

Hang on. Vester?

‘If it’s Vester… Diego Vester? THAT HIDDEN VILLAIN?!’

“There were times when we bumped into each other for a while, but now wizards and priests get along just fine. Wouldn’t it be prudent to respect each other’s territory?”
