Returning to the Eastern Desert

After concluding the meeting discussing the serial murders, Benjamin dismissed everyone, left the deserted alley and walked back to his lodgings. He contemplated the steps that he should take on his way back home.

There was not even a glimpse of a priest’s shadow on the streets, and it was evident that the church was forced to halt their missionary work. However, there was no way the church would give up this easily. Instead, they would probably find another unexpected way to claim their revenge. It was imperative for them to be alert of their actions from now on.

The number of mages in his group expanded due to private communication between the mages these few days. However, it was far from enough for them to go against the church.

He wondered how did "The Declaration of the Freedom of Magic" was circulating between the circle of mages…..

Just as Benjamin was contemplating all this in his mind, the System suddenly spoke to him.
