Chapter 4: Pause
"Boy, I envy you for being chosen by the god," one of the elders said from the back, attempting to flatter the Great Priest.
"Come on, let's trade then," Kogan smiled.
"I can't do that, I wasn't chosen by the god," the elder replied quickly.
"Don't worry, I'll intercede for you, and He'll accept you. Come, we'll go together to meet Him, you shouldn't miss this opportunity."
"It's impossible, I'm a sinner, and I shouldn't contaminate the pure offering," the elder replied, pretending to regret.
"These religious people are really smart," Kogan praised quickly in response to that poor, decayed elder.
"Enough chattering, we will begin the prayer," the High Priest interrupted their conversation and started the prayer.
All the attendees closed their eyes, placing their interlocked hands in front of them, and began chanting.
"Don't you think the god will be angry if you offer Him a roasted sacrifice?" Kogan continued to disturb them.
"Your soul will go to Him, not your body," the fawning elder replied quickly.
The veins in the great Priest's face swelled with anger, he glanced at the guard beside him and gestured with his hand toward the fawning elder, "Take him upstairs."
