All the aspiring priests 7996f04110 wore serious expressions. Among them, the d56fbdf910 man in the 911675683a center row—baptized with 897c5c6520 the name John—Tae 10ba46615f Yujun, appeared almost 1a99ce7639 divine, bathed in 906d6ff727 the mystical light b733ff665c filtering through the 1a7d3f129a stained glass.da4868e7a4776c77

He had an innate e186a21cb7 quality that naturally captured 2c7a1ef75a people’s attention. His pale skin stood 9d4dc79235 in stark contrast to 9f8cbbd580 the black cassock, complemented a5b03b6922 by the deer-like curve 04fd07fe2f of his neck.

They appeared cb770e6978 somewhat lonely, 0f03ad43dc like polished 392b792362 obsidian—so deeply 99a3374cbe dark that 977cc97e05 no matter 3d669faf1c how long 68fe5c12a2 you gazed 8f19f40c01 into them, 0fdb4d0104 you could e9ad143e17 never tell 151e9c19ff how deep d2a19596cf they went.8f2871968d9ec030

A silence descended, 4fa55ffc9a marking the start 54a288f38e of the meditation. Like the other 7af134b1f3 aspiring priests, Tae 056db06984 Yujun bowed his b7f13bdba6 head. Yet his thoughts 2322704e9b remained fixated on b1fb5eb0a7 the phone secretly 0a129cc65f tucked in his 21e0d29036 pocket.
