The young man knows well.

Han Joo-hee’s thoroughness in supporting the organization.

Don’t open your mouth carelessly, don’t be confident, and don’t have certainties.

So it took a very long time to get our hands together, but it was a great help to the organization.

Because during each operation, her caution would point out things that were not pointed out.

So it was surprising.

-“I will vouch for his identity.”

When she said that she was vouching for the identity of Kim Do-jin, who was no less an enemy of the organization than anyone else.

Even a slight feeling of jealousy arose.

Wasn’t she the one who was with them, but always drew a line and never got closer than a certain distance?

Reason, excluding the faintly surging emotions, immediately felt something.

‘What happened?’

Something happened between the two of them that they were unaware of, and that must have been the trigger.

So what is that?

‘You won’t be able to find out.’

The fact that she doesn’t say it directly means that she will probably leave the story unwritten.

If so, there was no way for them to find out.

The only way is to ask Kim Do-jin directly, not Han Joo-hee.

‘That side isn’t that easy either.’

The word ‘sh*t up’ was clearly a mistake.

However, after seeing him choose to force a breakthrough instead of apologizing, I realized this clearly.

The reason he was able to harass the organization so much.

So any incidents or stories that happened between them are completely excluded.

I keep thinking only about the current situation.

‘Can I trust him?’

The answer is fixed.

‘First of all… , you can trust me.’

Despite being virtually in enemy territory, he maintained a confident attitude throughout.

The words and actions are harsher than expected and the anger directed at the world that is revealed at a glance.

It was all told to him that it was ‘sincere’.

There’s one more thing.

Han Joo-hee’s guarantee would be enough of a reason to trust him to some extent.

but.

‘Hmm… , I’m a little grumpy.’

I got a little emotional.

At the same time, the mood among my colleagues was not very good.

At times like this, no one would notice.

The fact that you are being grumpy.

Also, it wasn’t just a grumpy offer.

Isn’t that reasonable?

If you are caught trying to bring a black stone, you will be branded an official of the Vatican Orthodox Church.

In other words, it becomes a body that can no longer live in the sun.

In that case, the only people left for him to rely on are himself.

Conversely, what if it succeeds?

‘That’s a good thing.’

Because you will be holding a powerful weapon called the Black Stone.

But there is one prerequisite to this.

In any case, this situation is only possible if Kim Do-jin accepts his proposal.

‘It won’t be easy.’

This is a proposal that can never be accepted based on courage or spirit.

If you make a mistake, your life could be completely ruined.

In the end, this was just a means.

To dampen the spirit of a very strong opponent a little.

Obviously, it was only that number.

“Give it a try, whatever.”

“… The significance of the attempt itself, eh? What now… ?”

I thought I heard wrong.

So I asked back.

“I’m bringing that black stone.”

“… … .”

no.

“… Why?”

Oops.

Thoughts that were supposed to stay in my head came out of my mouth.

Thanks to this, the other person’s gaze became strange.

‘What kind of crazy bastard is this?’ It feels like I’m looking at you.

He quickly took control of the situation.

“So what I’m saying is… , I thought you could really accept it. At this point, I could just pretend I didn’t hear anything and just move on.”

“No, it’s okay.”

He looks this way and grins.

He answered with a smile that was confident and yet seemed somewhat sly.

“I tend to keep my words once I say them.”

“… Haha.”

One thing was certain.

Either lose everything and be completely destroyed, or take everything in your hands and rule.

The moment they join hands with that man, there will be no middle ground in their ending.

He quietly shook his whole body and smiled at the chilling energy coming from a future that was difficult to predict.

* * *

Near the end of the story.

The guy said.

“After the operation is over, we will tell you our names and a secret that others do not know, in order to welcome Mr. Dojin as our true colleague.”

It’s a secret.

It was somehow obvious.

‘We are actually apostles of the Seven Deadly Sins.’ He’s probably trying to confess.

I found out roughly through that shadow guy and Jincheon.

Hexagram’s executives are made up of apostles of the Seven Deadly Sins or something similar.

But for now, I decided to match it to the rhythm.

I can roughly guess who is the apostle of which god, but there are some that are still vague.

“Let’s end the conversation here. I hope we can meet in person next time.”

“either, or not.”

Although I said it in a tone-deaf tone, I am also quite looking forward to it.

The moment I come face to face with them.

If you get tired, it’s a disaster.

I think we can only gauge the extent of their power by meeting them in person.

The screens turn off one by one.

“See you next time, cutie♥”

Starting with a late-stage patient with princess disease.

“Kill kill, idiot. It’s like crawling straight into your own grave. It was fun to meet you!”

“I hope you stay safe.”

“Bar, I want to go eat… .”

“… … .”

Muscle Pig, Jincheon, Glutton, and Lazy Man disappear from the screen one by one.

Finally, even the blonde disappeared without a word.

“… Are you crazy?”

Han Joo-hee, who had been waiting silently for the conversation to end, opened her eyes and started nagging.

“Why on earth would you make such a ridiculous plan to infiltrate the Vatican? !”

“They say it’s for trust.”

“That was clearly just a ploy to discourage you. You probably didn’t know either.”

“Kuhm.”

Well, I didn’t know.

Who would accept a mission that even Uncle Tom in the movie would refuse, shaking his head?

Except me.

“Don’t worry too much. I have thoughts too.”

“What on earth are you thinking? You probably don’t believe in a close friendship with a saint, do you?”

“Uh, um.”

How did you know?

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

After finishing the meaningless argument with Han Joo-hee, I went straight back to the guild hideout and licked my ears.

“Wow, why is this guy nagging so much? You are my wife, what are you saying?”

Let’s be patient.

It is said that a gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after 10 years.

It’s just a momentary nag that you hear in the process of seeking perfect revenge.

After resting my ears for a while from hearing the nagging, I immediately contacted the saint.

-“Yes, Mr. Dojin.”

A saintess accepting communication as if she had been waiting.

Her veiled face appears on the small screen.

“You were there at the right time?”

-“It was my break time, and you contacted me at the right time.”

Hehehe.

She smiles softly as if she is happy.

-“By the way, why did you contact me? A person who never contacted me unless I called first.”

I can feel the bones in the words.

I smile awkwardly and explain why I contacted him.

They are putting on a false act to hide in the hexagram.

And also about the items they asked for.

“They asked me for the Black Stone hidden in a secret room under the Vatican as proof of their trust.”

-“… … !”

I feel it.

The surprised expression she was making beyond the veil.

she asked.

-“How on earth… ?”

This makes one thing clear.

The Black Stone, which the U.S. government announced was broken, is still sleeping in the Vatican.

I tell her exactly what I heard.

“They say that the former saint stole it from the U.S. government.”

As soon as she finished speaking, her upper body suddenly turned towards me.

-“That’s a lie!”

A saintess who denies it with a very angry voice.

It’s my first time.

Why did she raise her voice like this?

Her eyes widened slightly in surprise at this, and she quickly put her upper body back.

-“Mi, I’m sorry. I lost my senses for a moment because of the slander that belittled the former saint.”

“… It’s okay.”

I understand.

If she were a former saint, she would have been like a teacher or parent to her.

If I cursed at someone like that, I would be so angry that I would scream.

-“But it’s true. The former saintess did not steal the Black Stone.”

“If so, please explain. How the Black Stone ended up in the hands of the Vatican.”

After hesitating for a moment, she soon opens her mouth.

-“… We made a deal with the U.S. government.”

“Deal?”

-“Yes. The Black Stone was an extremely dangerous item. If the experiment goes wrong, half of the country called America could easily disappear.”

“… … .”

As far as the evaluation of the Black Stone was concerned, the saintess and the blonde were the same.

A special magic stone with destructive power that is enough to easily destroy a country, no, much greater than that.

-“The saintess of Jeondae, who realized this right away, had a private conversation with the then-US president, and after a long conversation, a deal was concluded.”

“The contents of the transaction… .”

-“… In return for receiving the Black Stone, the condition was to give a portion of the Orthodox Church’s donations to the U.S. government for the next 100 years.”

“Huh.”

It was a truly ridiculous level of transaction.

The amount of donations the Vatican Orthodox Church collects every year is astronomical.

They decided to give some of them away, even for a hundred years.

Even though I thought it made no sense, I quickly understood it.

If it is something destructive enough to erase an entire continent, it seems worth it.

-“Since then, the Black Stone has been hidden in a secret room in the Vatican, only passed down by word of mouth to the saint. But how on earth do they… !”

I can feel the confusion in her tone.

Anyway, I guess so.

A hostile organization knows about the existence of an item in a secret room that was only passed down by word of mouth to the saint.

Where on earth did the information leak out?

“Could it be that you are a former saintess…? .”

She shakes her head weakly.

-“He passed away. That too a long time ago.”

If so, the probability that the information leaked from her would be extremely small.

“I’m asking just in case… .”

-“Of course, I didn’t tell anyone either.”

I see.

A somewhat sulky tone.

I hastily try to comfort her.

“That… , I’m just asking this just in case, so don’t be too angry.”

-“… I know.”

no.

Just by looking at the way you speak, it seems like you have no idea.

When you’re at a loss and don’t know how to comfort yourself.

she declares.

-“Anyway… , No matter how much Mr. Dojin, I can’t give you the Black Stone. that… , It is an item that should never go out into the world.”

“… … .”

From the beginning, the angle was off.
