Chapter 562 - Unexpected Gain 4 (1/2)

“Pant! Pant!”

Constantine kept running in the underground waterways.

Marcus or any of his followers, who couldn’t see in the darkness, had scattered along the way.

And the only thing that could be heard were the footsteps of the paladins, who were chasing them from all sides by giving out orders.

“Over there! Someone ran that way!”

“Uhk!”

‘How could this… As a messenger of God himself, why am I being pursued like this? I, who had been given the power of God, had to be the master of the new world, right?’

How long did he move like that while grieving to himself?

It was just around the corner of the underground where the waterway’s path took a turn.

Someone had come out along with a dim light toward Constantine.

“Wh-who is that?!”

When Constantine, who was startled, began to step back, the one on the other side spoke with a soft voice, “You don’t need to be afraid of me. I am the one who has come to pick you up.”

Upon hearing those words, Constantine looked at the one speaking.

Although the man’s appearance seemed to be very unusual, Constantine soon sighed out of relief when he saw the greasy grey robe.

‘Is he a priest from the Grey Order?’

In fact, when he took a closer look at the source of the voice, Constantine noticed that there was something different with his clothes.

Yet, Constantine was currently being chased, and he didn’t have the time to take such an inspective look at his savior.

“Did Baymon send you? Where is that man?”

“He had to go back to the place where he belonged.”

‘Go back? Where was that?’

However, he couldn’t figure it out.

The noise of the paladins approaching him was getting closer and closer even in such dark places.

“Ah, well, just get me out of here right away! I am ordering you to take me to your leader, Baymon!”

The old bald priest remained silent at the arrogant words of Constantine and soon nodded with a soft smile.

“Fine. Please take my hand.”
