The Return of the Disaster-Class Hero

Ch 82 - Trial of Reputation (2)

"Lee Gun! Are you here!"

Someone slammed open the door. In fact, both the front door and the back door opened at the same time.

"Lee Gun! We are here for you!"

The commotion surprised the people in the pub.

"W-what the hell! What's going on!"

A group of men dressed in black entered the pub through the back door. To hide their identities, all of them had worn black coats.

Another group stepped in through the front door. The men in this group wore pure white armor. Their armor suits were unique with the symbol of the Virgo Saint engraved on them. The symbol looked as if someone had connected two "m".

Alongside the group wearing pure white, soldiers clad in pure white uniforms surrounded the pub.

Clank clank!

The soldiers held guns in their hands. Although guns were ineffective against monsters, they worked on regular humans.

This development caused a stir inside the pub.

"Those pure white... They are the holy knights of the Virgo temple!"

"High-ranked Virgo disciples?"

The disciples from the other temples became vigilant. Troops supposed to be guarding the Virgo Saint's holy ground had come here. They weren't supposed to show up in a place like this unless they were on special business.

The crowd pointed at the group wearing pure white.

"They are the inquisitors of the Virgo Saint...!"

"!"

Their gazes then headed to the ones wearing white leather armor.

All the Saints were different, but most of them had similarly divided their temples into three internal factions. Naturally, the god and the Saint resided on top of this structure.

The first faction was field troops; they were called the Cluster, which contained the generals and disciples. The second faction was the Elders; they wrote the rules and managed the temple's internal affairs. The last faction was the Inquisitor; they monitored and took disciplinary actions.

Of course, the Archer Saint didn't have such a system. His temple was made out of a small number of elite disciples. The Leo Saint had decided to get rid of the elders and the inquisitors. However, they were the exception to the rule that only had the Clusters. The temples of these two Saints were considered eccentric...

"Anyway, why have the Inquisitors come into town?"

"Didn't they just say they were looking for Lee Gun?"

"What? No way!"

The crowd gulped. The inquisitors were a somber bunch that hunted down disciples who were deserters or criminals. They also hunted down disciples from other temples.

Moreover, these inquisitors belonged to the Virgo Saint. The Virgo Saint's territory was called the great empire of the west, and the Saint was very strict about the separation of the three powers. His inquisitors were famous for being cruel.

Therefore, everyone raised their guard.

"Is the Virgo Saint trying to steal Lee Gun's achievement?"

"Since the inquisitors have come here, you might be right!"

"Wait a moment! What about the dudes wearing black?" someone asked as they saw the intruders that had entered the pub through the back door.

"Are the ones wearing black part of the Inquisitors?"
