Benjamin was still asleep when the people from the church arrived.
He had originally wanted to take out Divine Arts 101 and the water element crystal to properly study them. He then thought about the possibility of the people from the church coming at any moment to get him, so he decided to hide them in a safe place instead.
Thank God he did not take them out from the hiding spot.
Approximately 1am or 2am past midnight, the people from the church came. It was a middle-aged man who dressed like a priest, and he seemed to be well-mannered as he only came in after he knocked and waited for Benjamin to wake himself up enough to utter ‘Come in’.
Aside from the fact that he disturbed Benjamin’s sweet dreams, he was indeed a ‘well-mannered’ person.
Whenever the bane of their existence - the mages - was involved, the church was always this domineering, yet well-mannered.
