章 485: The Syndicate's Vision

Believe what you will, huh?

Well, I actually asked that question just to bait them. I was already verifying their answers using Psychic Magic earlier, but since that took mana, by asking this question to them and judging their response, I could determine whether or not Psychic Magic was really needed. And as it turns out, it wasn't—they were telling the truth, through and through. Saves a lot of trouble for me too.

"Anyway… next question," I continued, rubbing my chin. "What is the ranking system of the Midnight Syndicate? Tell me everything you know—everything."

"Heh. It's really not complicated," the prisoner leading them said with a coarse chuckle. "You ever been to Church before?"

I shook my head. "No."

"Ah… an atheist, eh?" The prisoners laughed in joint.

I shrugged. "Well, I wouldn't phrase it like that, since there are things I believe in, but for the purpose of this conversation, sure. Enlighten me."
