401: The journalist [pt1]

 For the first time, the press was on the divine guild's side without anyone having to bribe them. They were trying to get on the same page and express the same sorrow.

The passing of the much beloved divine leader was phenomenal, and even the media was too stunned to make jokes about it.

They even moved on from Amane and toward Sean, who was about to take the position of the following divine leader. Suspicion and encouragement filled the people's eyes. But they were suspicious of Sean at the same time.

"Are you sure you are the right person to take up the position of the divine leader? Do you have what it takes to succeed Charlie Suzuki, Mr. Sean? Do you even have half the power that your predecessor had?"

The media cared about power and balanced structure. They wanted a divine leader they could walk all over and control. 

So far, Sean had yet to give them an opening to do anything.
