Soon enough, the day passed.

The disaster at the Moonlight Gate was beginning to fade from memory.

After a long time, word came that the Cathedral was gathering again.

"...For the first time since the Moonlight Gate disaster."

The living room.

Looking at the letter, which said to meet rather than exchange information, I muttered to myself.

Cathedral, a place where only S-class villains who lead an organization gather.

It was founded by Celeste, the Saint of Light, who is considered the number one villain in the world in terms of power and influence.

In the original story, it's only now that it's beginning to take center stage.

Especially since the world has been torn apart by the Moonlight Church...

"What happens now...?"

I rested my chin on my desk and pondered the question.

For now, I don't need to worry about my influence within Cathedral. I've already proven myself with the Moonlight Gate, and I have Katana, Li Xiaofeng, and Atlas all on my side.

That said, I'm not without my problems.

I've been acting a little too outspoken lately, and some people might question whether I'm a villain or not. I've been openly working with Stardus on the air, and foreign news outlets have been reporting favorably on me lately.

'...Of course it's none of my business.'

Of course, that was irrelevant.

There are plenty of ways to get out of this, like blaming the heroes, catching people off guard, didn't you guys work with the heroes during the Moonlight Gate disaster...and most importantly, I have friends at the Cathedral who trust me completely apart from Atlas to Katana.

The only problem is Celeste...

"...I guess I'll just have to wait and see."

With that thought, I prepared for the meeting.

***

Cathedral finally arrived.

"Greetings, Egostic."

Stepping into the once-white cathedral, I followed the priest's words across the long hallway to the Round Table Room.

And when I arrived, I saw familiar faces.

"Hello, Egostic! Here you are."

"Ah, Egostic. You're here."

"Egostic!"

I'm a little late today, but I see Atlas, Li Xiaofeng, and Katana, who are already seated. Our red Mohican head also saw me and bowed....The Mohican seems to have survived the Moonlight Gate disaster. Glad to see.

"Gee, how are you all doing?"

And with that, I walked over to everyone with a big smile on my face.

"".......""

The eyes of the villains at the round table turned to me and as I smiled and walked toward my colleagues, I quickly scanned the table with my masked eyes.

As I did so, I could sense a range of emotions in their gazes. Curiosity, wonder, admiration, doubt, nervousness, and even fear.

Yes.

I knew this reaction would come, and I deliberately came late.

This Moonlight Gate catastrophe may have come out of the blue to the rest of the world, but not to the villains sitting here.
