Maze Fan: I opened a buffet in the maze

Chapter 98: Prayers and Shadows of the Past

"Uh~~!"

As soon as he landed, Fan Wei's legs went weak and he fell to the ground. His eyes rolled back and his soul was already floating to his lips.

"Are you okay?" Irene felt distressed. Lack of magic power was just an excuse. This guy's stubbornness really made her angry.

But she regretted it after all the trouble. It’s okay to be stupid, but trouble won’t make him smarter!

Su Fuli stretched out her hand and hummed two syllables. A warm yellow light circle flashed on Fan Wei, which made him feel much more relaxed.

"Thank you~"

Clara came over and helped Fan Wei up.

Emotionally she was a little angry, but rationally she thought that these women's harassment to her husband would only make him subconsciously stay away from them.

On the contrary, it is very beneficial to you!

"Stupid guys are just fragile. They can't even do this. They're just like a small fry~" Gonia stepped forward, poked Fan Wei's face and laughed.

But three ferocious shadows suddenly appeared behind her, causing her mocking smile to freeze on her face.

"Okay, okay, mass is about to start, let's go!"

Seeing Owen and his companions running towards him in the distance with smoke and dust rolling up, Fan Wei resumed his smile and the group chose a farther location to avoid excessive crowds.

With the presence of a great magician, distance no longer matters.

Su Fuli cast her magic eyes and projected the distant scene in front of her. The content of the High Mass was not complicated. It included choir performances, telling of classic stories of the church, and a final collective prayer.

Spread out the picnic blanket, sit down and feel the tranquility in the bustle.

"It's so beautiful~" The sun fell below the horizon and the stars emerged.

The gorgeous galaxy from another world stretches across the sky, silver light dotted among the colorful nebulae, and the long and ethereal chanting of hymns echoed throughout the entire square under the blessing of divine magic.

Tens of thousands of people sat in a circle, in silence, feeling the sound that cleansed their bodies and minds, conveying the language of God.

It is the song, the light, the quiet night and the stars, the breeze and their breathing to each other.

The legendary story began to unfold in everyone's ears. In ancient times, disasters swept across the world, including floods, cold, fear, hunger...all of which were dispelled by the gentle mother. Green vitality filled the earth, and warm white light bestowed new life on the sons of men.

Just as there is light because there is darkness, and there is redemption because of sacrifice, the classic story has not changed, but it still touches people's hearts.

"Let's close our eyes and pray!"

A deep and rich voice sounded, and then everyone fell silent. Everyone bowed their heads and clasped their hands together, expressing their wishes in the silence that seemed to be connected to God.

Clara made two wishes;

Erin may have granted two people's wishes;

Su Fuli said nothing. She felt that the gods might not be able to redeem her. She only wished that warm and clear guy happiness...

Wishes are silently intertwined, and perhaps they can really be sent to the gods, allowing them to relieve us of our worldly desires and troubles.

Is this world what He wants it to be?

After opening their eyes, everyone looked around and smiled in tacit understanding. Even if no one heard them, those secret wishes made people feel quite shy.

"Sir." Clara asked, "May I ask what your wish is about?"

"Ah~ my wish." Fan Wei smiled and answered frankly: "I hope the world is stable, the restaurant business is booming, and everyone can be happy."

"Ah, what a vulgar wish!"

Gonia couldn't help but jump out, but then shrank back under everyone's gaze, and could only mutter in a low voice, "Stupid mortals indeed."

"What did you wish for, Gonia?"

When asked teasingly by Fan Wei, the blonde girl blushed, "Yes, it's none of your business! And how could I possibly make a wish to some Earth Mother Goddess!"

As expected, except for the guy who is as blank as a piece of paper, everyone's wishes have some unspeakable elements.

"Let's start! The lantern release event!"

The highlight of the festival officially began. Paper lanterns painted with the emblem of Mother Nature were distributed to the crowd from front to back by the clergy, who also held donation boxes, waiting for generous donations from believers.

When it was Fan Wei and his friends' turn, everyone took out one or two wallets and stuffed them into the box. Fan Wei thought about it and took out a few silver coins and put them in.

"Wow, so much at once! Are you a devout believer of Mother Earth?" Rona said in surprise.

In her opinion, although Misr Fan was not stingy, he was also a person who valued money and usually spent money very frugally.

They're giving such a huge sum of money this time. Are they trying to bribe the gods?

"No, I'm not a believer, but I still feel like we should thank Mother Nature." Fan Wei smiled and said, "Her harvest magic increased food production and must have saved a lot of people."

"It's hard to express it with words, so I'll just express my gratitude a little bit."

Several clergymen drew the divine emblem on their chests and nodded gently to him in thanks and blessings.

Picking up something that looked very much like the Kongming lanterns from his hometown, Fan Wei and the others unfolded the paper lanterns, lit the flames, and when the heat filled the air chamber, they held the pure white lanterns in their hands and slowly released them back into the sky.

For a moment, tens of thousands of white lights flew away with the wind like birds returning to the starry sky.

The bright lights covering the entire maze street flew farther and farther away under the guidance of the gentle west wind, just like the long river of time, turning over the past and flowing towards tomorrow.

Until the lights faded, the festival finally came to an end.

"The wind is picking up, and the weather should gradually turn cooler." Irene held out her hand, her purple hair flying in the night, "Do you still want us to take you back?"

She turned around and looked at Fan Wei with gentle eyes.

“No, no!” Still feeling a little weak in the knees, Misr Fan shook his head like the waves and forced a smile, “I’d better walk back!”

"Hahaha~"

"Haha."

After the bell-like laughter, everyone waved goodbye to each other, "See you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow."

Fan Wei watched all his friends leave, rubbed Clara and Gonia's heads, and said, "Let's go home too~"

"Ah."

"What more do you want me to say, you foolish mortal!"

Three figures, one tall and two short, walked on the stone road illuminated by street lamps, like a neat family, returning to the restaurant by the river.

Two dark figures who were watching quietly from a distance spoke quietly.

"Is that her? She's changed so much... I almost didn't recognize her."

A male voice said softly in the dark shadows: "Who is the man next to her? Does he look like another 'Son of God'? Are they keeping each other company for warmth?"

"Heh, just an ordinary guy who happens to have black hair and black eyes."

The female voice with an evil smile spoke, "It seems that our little dark seeds thought they had found a place to take root, but the flowers of despair will only bloom in the flames of silence."

"It's okay. I just tore up everything I cherished for her once again~"

The man was silent for a moment, and then asked in confusion, "Why do you think so highly of her? There is more than one candidate for the Son of God. You don't have to go to such lengths to be the other candidates."

A woman walked out of the darkness. She was wearing ordinary civilian clothes and looked unremarkable.

But that kind of smile with a hint of madness makes people feel scared.

"Why? Oh, because I saw true despair and destruction in her!"

"She is not an idiot who wants to take revenge on the world after being wronged, nor is she a vicious and perverted madman who takes pleasure in slaughter and torture. She is born with darkness, silence and stillness."

"When I saw her killing her acquaintances and neighbors with empty eyes and expressionless face... and throwing away the bloody weapon without a care after finishing the killing, I knew..."

"She must be the vessel for the divine flame to bloom!"

"Clara, what a fitting name for God~"
