Chapter 527
The ten archbishops stood before Se-Hoon.
Like guardians of the old, worn church, the ten were enveloped in the brilliant radiance as they blocked his way with cold, killing intent.
They sensed my presence?
However, what Se-Hoon was concerned about was that his concealment skill—which allowed him to hide between dream and reality—had been seen through in a fully activated state? His skill, which had reached the realm of the Perfect Ones just like the interference magic used by the Inoue family, had been detected by the archbishops that weren’t even near reaching ascension?
Could they have noticed me when I was still aboveground? ...No, that’s unlikely. If they had, I would’ve noticed too.
Removing the likely explanations, Se-Hoon concluded with one: the underground chamber itself was a special space. He focused on the archbishops again.
Hmmm, they’re looking in the right direction, but their focus is slightly off.
Focusing on their gazes, Se-Hoon noticed that rather than seeing him, they were more so... seeing the space where he stood. And with that, it was enough information from his surroundings for Se-Hoon to formulate several hypotheses. Testing one of them, Se-Hoon took a single step to the left.
Thwack!
A pure white arrow slammed into the ground at his feet with terrifying force.
“Don’t move.”
Se-Hoon focused on Jane, her eyes sharp with vigilance, and read her expression. Then, after organizing his thoughts, he adjusted his vigilance.
