Chapter 614: Chapter 464: Employees Above E Level, Fall In!_1 Chapter 614: Chapter 464: Employees Above E Level, Fall In!_1 Reflecting on the “branch office,” it was quite difficult to come up with any effective conclusions.

Colin could only acknowledge that this thing might be even better at hiding than the Rat on Earth, making it hard to get a clear picture of the situation.

“Can’t figure it out, just can’t figure it out…”

Colin sighed.

After the “branch office” left, peace returned here once more, without any further incidents…

However, he hadn’t completely let his guard down either.

Previously in this world, he would often feel an invisible sense of being watched; in the beginning, he could chalk it up to paranoia, but later on, it clearly became improbable.

So, with great probability, there really was something that occasionally spied on him.

Today was his “most dangerous day.”

If given the chance, those things would have a significant likelihood of approaching…

Of course, that didn’t necessarily mean an attack or revenge, but could also pertain to discussing some sort of cooperation.

Just like the “King of Savage Sound” asking for release.

Only…

Just when Colin thought that after his night shift at the “branch office,” there would surely be more things coming to guard the church at night.

And he was already considering how to bargain for more benefits for himself…

No further movements occurred thereafter.

Even the occasional “sense of being watched,” was almost entirely absent this night.

“Tsk, could it be because the ‘Radiant Angel’ sealed them all in a swoop?”

Colin muttered to himself.

The “King of Madness,” a bystander last time, almost got encased in concrete.

Other onlookers looking for entertainment probably weren’t few in number either.

Hours passed by once more.

Suddenly, Colin felt the oppressive sensation that had been looming over his heart disappear.

Subsequently, he instinctively looked outside, and noticed that the originally profound and pitch-black night had imperceptibly transformed into a hazy daylight.

“Creak~”

The door of the little church was pushed open, and Shana, who had slept a few hours, came out.

Her skin, which was a bit gaunt before, now appeared much filled out and had some color; on the whole, she looked much livelier than before she went to sleep last night.

Her countenance had evidently become more beautiful.

Certainly, she had digested yesterday’s meal well.

‘The absorption rate of a Saint is high indeed…’

Colin smacked his tongue, thinking to himself that he should stuff Shana with more food later for a good replenishment, as despite looking better, she still seemed very thin.

Nonetheless, only he could see the Saintess’s true appearance.

In the eyes of most ordinary people, Shana’s exact image was somewhat vague, her demeanor gentle and within the haze, filled with a sense of sanctity, leaving room for imagination…

Even her gender characteristics were somewhat diluted due to the image she presented.

Some employees questioned whether she was male or female…

Some female employees felt Shana leaned towards male, but some male employees thought she appeared feminine, of course, there were male employees who believed she presented as more masculine…

As for the last point, Colin thought it wise to be vigilant.

“Good day, Mr. Colin,” Shana greeted.

“Day, oh, good morning,” Colin was not quite accustomed to that phrasing.

Shana didn’t mind that response; through her interactions over time, she knew that this Divine Envoy of Colin’s was somewhat different from most of the Church, with almost no sense of ritual, very… casual.

Of course, from the perspective of some nobles, he would be an impolite savage.

However, Shana rather liked this easygoing nature.

She wasn’t very fond of using the odd intonations and affected words and mannerisms unique to the upper class.

But opposite her, Colin was pondering something; he remembered that last night he had made a deal with the “branch office,” which seemed to involve some matters related to Shana or the group of Saints.

He had planned to tell her when dawn broke…

However, as soon as he saw Shana and was about to speak, suddenly he couldn’t remember the specifics, as if struck by amnesia.

He only knew what he had given and what he had gained, the information in between was lost.

‘Hiss… that branch office is indeed cunning.’

As Colin’s thoughts flashed by, he realized that the fellow had used some means to make him forget some critical content when the main company wasn’t around to respond.

It wasn’t memory erasure, as that would have alerted him.

In principle, it felt more like an invisible ink pen; after writing, the words would disappear after a while.

Such that when he wanted to speak, he found that some content was missing.

At that moment, he suddenly heard Shana speak, “It seems you have something you want to say?”

Shana, who had just stepped out, had already come to his side.

“Mm…”

Colin hesitated and said, “I can’t remember, but you might want to be careful of something eyeing the contents of your pocket…”

That was all he could remember.

“Be careful of what’s in my pocket?” Shana looked at Colin with an air of forgetfulness and thoughtfully nodded.

Her Spiritual Intuition didn’t raise any alarm, yet she was also certain Colin wasn’t lying.

Could it be a situation where something without malice towards her was eyeing a thing, which didn’t pose a major safety threat to her?

She kept this in mind to a slight degree; to prevent Colin from delving into deep thought and risking danger, Shana didn’t pursue the subject any further.

After all, her lack of a premonition of danger didn’t mean Mr. Colin was in the same position.

Especially when he was in his “most dangerous” moment.

Shana then asked, “Is there anything I can assist you with?”
