Chapter 55: Masked Men
So what really happened?
After seeing those strange men, Cail suddenly grabbed Veyr. He hugged Veyr tightly to his chest and took a step back.
Because his face was covered, he couldn’t show any facial expressions, so he made his voice quiver. "You—who are you?! What do you guys want?!"
His body language said that if they moved another step, he was going to bolt.
One of the masked men said, "You are not supposed to be here. You need to leave." His voice was raspy and deep.
Hearing that, Cail finally understood that they were probably keeping tabs on this church. This was also the reason they immediately came here after hearing the sound.
Cail didn’t say anything, and continued hugging Veyr. They didn’t seem to have any intention of attacking, so Cail walked toward the door, still facing them.
One of the masked men was looking at the altar while the others were lighting the candles.
Their robes were embroidered with intricate runes from a language that Cail didn’t understand.
"They’ll really just leave us alone? Just like that?"
Cail felt uneasy about the situation, but since they weren’t looking for trouble, that was fine. Just by observing their strength, it seemed like they were on the same level as that woman from before.
