The players quickly went to work.
Soon, more than ten town residents gathered at the church entrance.
Among them were the blacksmith with an injured leg, an elderly woman who walked slowly, and a mother with a sick child who couldn't move.
When they arrived at the church, they first saw Snowball, the giant white wolf, sitting obediently next to Hanjun.
The residents' faces went pale with fear.
Father Barry quickly reassured them, "Don't worry, this wolf won't hurt anyone. It's a holy beast from the Church Of Light."
The idea of a holy beast from the Church Of Light made them unsure.
They hadn't believed in the God Of Light for a long time.
However, since Father Barry was well-respected in the town and was the only one with any real influence, they were willing to trust him.
After Father Barry's explanation, the residents reluctantly felt more at ease and looked over at Snowball.
Snowball, who was about half a person's height, was sitting and almost reaching Hanjun's shoulder.
Even though it was a wolf, it was acting like a dog, cuddling up to Hanjun and whining.
This behavior annoyed a Ragdoll Cat, which, despite its smaller size, wasn't afraid of Snowball.
It swatted at Snowball with its paw.
Snowball yelped and dodged the Ragdoll Cat's attack by circling around Hanjun.
The two animals seemed to be playfully fighting for attention around Hanjun.
Seeing this, the town residents' fear of the giant white wolf lessened.
It didn't seem so frightening anymore.
After hearing Father Barry explain the truth about the quarry, the residents were stunned and stayed still for a long time.
The mother with the sick child silently wept.
Her husband had been sent to the quarry and never returned.
She had thought he died because of the wolves, but now she learned he had actually died from overwork at the quarry under Viscount Hereford's orders.
She only discovered the truth today.
Overwhelmed with anger, she wanted to seek revenge on Viscount Hereford for her husband.
But thinking about her sick child and the approaching demon army, she felt helpless and cried silently.
Pastor Father Barry gave them some time to process what they had heard.
The players could see the distress on the residents' faces and felt uneasy.
Once the townspeople started to recover, Pastor Father Barry said, "I know the demon army will arrive in two days. You might have given up hope and are just waiting to die. But I haven't given up, and neither has God. God has sent heroes to help us. If we stand up and work with these heroes, we can all survive and find the truth for those who have died."
The limping blacksmith asked loudly, "Is this true? Has the God of Light really appeared?"
Father Barry nodded his head, "These heroes behind me are proof. God sent them to help us. If we work together, we can get through this."
The players, who were called upon, waved their hands to the residents.
