Original God, looking for the heart

Just as planned, the group went to the Grand Bazaar to watch the Dance of the Flower Goddess prepared by Nelu. Most of the talking and laughing along the way was due to Dina Zedei praising the good deeds of Little Lucky Grass King and the "Flower God's Dance" that she knew from books or from others.

Being able to watch a dance of the Goddess of Flowers should be the happiest thing in this life.

……

"Flower God's Birthday Festival... holding large-scale deity worship activities in private is also prohibited by law, right? The right to host it can only be in the hands of the Order Council."

"If you persist like this, we will have to order the investigation of all the organizers of the Flora Festival."

As soon as we entered the Grand Bazaar, we saw the scene of the flower god’s birthday being blocked. Everyone present was concerned, especially Dina Zedai. Nilu, who was embarrassed by the great sage and the scholars of the Imperial Academy, made the atmosphere of the Grand Bazaar even more silent. It is confusion, annoyance, and "questioning" about the duties that the Order Council should perform.

Dina Zedai even bluntly stated that she was going to argue with the Great Sage.

"Wait, don't go." When Paimon stopped Dina Zedai, he surmised the consequences of Dina Zedai rushing forward rashly. Regardless of which side has the right to interpret, what if the other party becomes angry?

"Art, dance... In this country of wisdom and reason, wouldn't you feel ashamed to pursue these frivolous and nihilistic things?" The great sage Azar is even more of a "critic" at this moment. He ruthlessly denigrated the art of Flora's birthday, even going as far as to call it "tarnished".

Nilu just explained a few words, but Azar changed the subject because the other party's knowledge was not enough to debate with him, and forcibly ordered Nilu to send away all the people who were going to attend the flower god's birthday festival. After leaving, the great sage even ordered the scribes to draft a decree on "a complete ban on public artistic performances" before the next Tibetan Recognition Day.

"I hope you can still 'celebrate' the birth of the gods." Azar thought, "Only such stupid guys would believe in useless gods."

After the great sage and others left, Dina Zedai and others joined Nilu. They discussed solutions, but were overturned one by one.

"Dina Zedei, why don't you wait until next time..." Nilu felt very sorry. But right now, this is really the only way.

Of course, Dina Zedei knew that this was not Nilu's problem. As Paimon said, it's all the fault of the Order's incomprehension. She didn't want to cause more trouble because of her selfish desires. Although - I probably won't be there next time...

"It's okay. This is not your problem. Nilu, don't blame yourself." After comforting Nilu, Dina Zedei also apologized and persuaded Kong and the others to leave. In fact, it is more appropriate to describe the scene at that time by saying that she left silently after saying some words of thanks.

Yes, next time? But does she really have a next time? Even if someone is willing to save him, someone can derive the elements accumulated in his body... How long can she actually exist?

……

Dina Zedai's reaction made everyone feel uncomfortable. After going through a useless discussion, Sora could only fall asleep with regret.

The faint sound of the machine starting up came to my ears.

"All connections have been ensured and the highest stability structure has been built. The 'plan' has entered the most critical stage, starting from the **** to export power."

The voice was so insubstantial that it seemed like one's own fantasy.

……

……

——The next day——

At Paimon's urging, Sora got out of bed and joined Dina Zedai.

Paimon excitedly talked about his expectations for the Flower Goddess's birthday, and kept guessing about the food at the birthday party. For some reason, Kong inexplicably remembered a dish made from various fresh fruits and mushrooms from Sumeru, as well as a candy.

The memorial stalls were always bustling with activity, and Sora also saw a dish called the "Seven Fresh Tables" here - the one he vaguely felt.

Then came the "alchemy divination" from the scholar. After the failure, the ashes actually formed a moon pattern. He turned his back and secretly opened the book, telling everyone that it meant "illusion" and "lie".

A trace of doubt flashed through the golden eyes: Why, it felt familiar from the beginning.

It should just be an illusion. Sora shook his head, blaming this strange sense of déjà vu on his long journey. When I first came to Xumi, wasn't it similar to being "allergic" to a certain type of incense?

At the stall of Flower Knight Farris, five exquisite candy boxes were placed on the table. There are surprises from different flavors, but Paimon seems reluctant to try the fresh Pyrrhus and Lizard Tail flavors. She held her chin and whispered that she wanted to eat the taste of sunset fruits.

"Paimon, don't overthink my luck." Kong felt helpless and moved his eyes to the box containing candy. In fact, he could also consider whether Mandrill would like this taste.

"Huh...?" Sora's eyes were locked on box No. 4. This box gave him a unique feeling, as if it was waving to him - Hey! ! Choose me quickly! !

As luck would have it, Sora did choose that box.

"Revealing moment~Dangdang-it's really a fruity sunset!" Faris sighed, "This guest is really lucky!"

Paimon happily took out two pieces of candy.

Sora was excited and noticed something strange: it didn't seem like luck just now...

"I know what you are thinking," Paimon wrapped another piece of candy in a candy wrapper, "so you can bring it to Mandrill."

"Thank you." Sora put away the candy and once again participated in the Flower Goddess's birthday festival.

From encountering robbers by chance, Desiya appeared to protect them, to going to the Grand Bazaar, and happened to encounter the sage banning the performance, and finally ended with regret... In Sora's impression, he had not experienced this. But what I experienced today was still predicted in my mind. Is it really just explained by "déjà vu"?

Lying on the bed, it was dark outside the window.

"drop--"

Open your eyes, it's another sunny day.

"Get up quickly -" Paimon looked expectant, "Today we have an appointment with Dina Zedei, and we will also participate in the Flower Goddess's Birthday Festival together."

……

——Jiaolingyuan——

Although it was a bad habit, Mo Bei still liked to sit sideways on the window, leaning against the frame and looking out. Taking a sip of the hot milk in his hand, he slowly spoke:

"Lord Sage, are the nights in Xumi City always so quiet?"

The world outside the window seems a little different from usual - tonight, only the street lights are on.

"As a city of wisdom, if Xumi still holds theatrical performances or annoying music in the middle of the night - don't you think this really insults our 'original intention'?"

Knowledge and knowledge... Mo Bei felt that the environment here was really depressing: "The Flower Goddess's birthday party that I attended tomorrow was still very lively..."

Behind Mo Bei, the great sage gritted his teeth and couldn't help complaining about the fact that Mo Bei took action on the street.

"I know, I won't do it next time." Mo Bei felt that this little old man liked to talk a lot, so he asked him to shut up before speaking, "By the way, I heard that people in Xumi City don't dream. This is What statement?"

"This..." A trace of panic flashed across Azar's face, and Yuexia's expression became even more unpleasant, "Of course it's because dreaming is defined as a sign of stupidity. Instead of having time to immerse yourself in dreams, it's better to get up early to complete your own exploration. .”

“But the human brain—isn’t it the most active time when it’s dreaming?”

"..." Azar's expression became even more nervous. He was afraid of what Mo Bei would guess. The plan cannot be interrupted, this is Sumeru's self-salvation. Although the skirmishers had clearly warned him, he would never have any thoughts about the person in front of him...

God, you have been swayed by your emotions and your hands are bound by chains. Why not let me personally win your reason and freedom?

Azar stood up and walked towards Mobei step by step.

All it takes is a slight push and he falls. When the time comes, he can just lie and say that he was the one who couldn't sit still.

Mo Bei blew the milk, the steaming mist dispersed, and a few more strands rolled up like waves.

Azar smiled sinisterly, and the distance between him and Mo Bei was enough for him to use his strength. Just like that, gently, it was just an accident. God will not blame him.

At that moment, he could push the opponent down with his hands, and thunder suddenly fell on Azar's head. The thunder and lightning were dazzling and majestic, but there was no roar, as if they did not want to disturb the birds perched on the branches.

The sage fell backwards, and his palms were cut off by the wind blade.

Mo Bei was still tasting the milk and looking at the darkness in the distance.

"I warned you not to have inappropriate thoughts." In the darkness, an afterimage emerged.
