Chwaaaa—

Rain poured down like a waterfall from the sky that day.

“Ehew. Why is it suddenly raining? I guess that’s just my luck.”

Looking up at the sky full of dark clouds, a Priest complained before glancing back. About 200 meters away, she saw a young man soaked in the rain. Though she couldn’t make out his expression, she knew he was watching them.

“That guy, he’s still following us.”

“Hasn’t it been like four hours? The city is in the opposite direction….”

The Priest murmured before glancing to the side. Baek Haeju was walking angrily while keeping the hood of her raincoat pulled down to hide most of her face.

“But seriously, what’s the matter? You, helping a person in need? Wasn’t your motto, live alone, die alone?”

Baek Haeju did not reply. Her steps quickened as if to indicate she didn’t want to talk about it.

Sensing Baek Haeju’s anger, Seo Yuhui glanced at her fellow Priest and signaled her to stop. However, the Priest was persistent.

“I mean, am I wrong? I’ve been suspicious since you first agreed to do it, even going as far as to delay other missions. Yes, the reward was pretty good, but everyone knows that money isn’t something you care about. And it’s not like you’re particularly fond of Sinyoung either.”

“I thought you’d refuse for sure, but with one look at the list of rescuees, you changed your mind. As if that wasn’t weird enough, the important members were all rescued, yet you searched all over that villa for a slave whose only use was to be a meat shield. Even Sinyoung thought he was dead and abandoned him.”

The Priest was convinced there was unfinished business between Baek Haeju and that man.

“Most importantly, after all the trouble you went through to rescue him, why did you get so angry?...
