I felt guilty hearing that, for some reason. However, this situation was more important than Kim Ye-ri's words. The only problem here was how Marlin Young-ae had chosen to treat me.

"It's been a long time; it's a pleasure to meet you, Marlin Young-ae."

"The same is true for me. Lee Kiyoung."

"I didn't know that you would come to meet me in advance."

"Actually, after receiving a letter saying that you would come here once, I waited only for the day Lee Kiyoung would be coming."

"What?"

It took about 15 days from the time I sent the letter about maybe coming here. I felt a little disconcerted about how she had chosen to react.

'She's a little weird, too...'

[Checking the unique characteristic of player Marlin Young-ae.]

[The Obsessed Girl]

[She gets really obsessed about something she's interested in.]

'Fuck...

It would be better for me to keep my distance in the future, considering her disposition. Back then, I didn't think there would be any problem with her, but I ended up being mistaken.

I didn't know what was with her, but she was definitely not normal. I also found no other advantage to her than the fact that she was the Castle Rock lord's daughter, but I still had to play my cards right.

'This will get me a headache.'

I didn't want to gain a new Jung Hayan.

"I have always been waiting for news from Lindel. I knew you would come here someday."

"Right..."

"I've been keeping tabs on Lindel's press."

"Ah... Right..."

"You don't know how happy I was to see a carriage coming from afar this morning. Ah, that reminds me... Where are my manners? Hello, everyone that came to Castle Rock. I am Marlin Young-ae, but you can call me Marlin."

"Nice to meet you, Marlin Young-ae."

"This is Kim Hyunsung, our Blue Guild Master. Say hello to everyone else, Marlin Young-ae. Have you ever met Hayan?"

"Yes. It's also good to meet you. I heard a lot about you, Blue Guild Master."

"I have heard of Marlin Young-ae often too. It's only for a short time, but thank you very much for your willingness to take care of us during our stay."

'Ah, it's not good to talk like that...'

It wasn't a good idea to inform Young-ae about that, given her tendency to misunderstand the situation. Already, Jung Hayan's expression was slowly worsening.

As I thought about whether or not to make excuses, a different voice piped up from a distance.

"Whoo... Whoo... Honorary Bishop Lee Kiyoung!"

"Archbishop Judah! You were in the Castle Rock Temple."

This was also another acquaintance I had made back in the Empire. Though all we did was drink a cup of tea together, the Pope's members tended to be a little tight.

"If you had contacted me in advance, I would have come to meet you. Hohoho."

"Hahaha. I can't keep a busy guy waiting. If I knew that Archbishop Judah would come, I would have brought a gift. I didn't even know that you would be in Castle Rock."
