When the stars are in the right position, a series of subtle changes occur in a world shrouded in magic and divine power.

However, only a few people can perceive this change and observe the knowledge and truths that were hidden in the depths of the world in the past.

In the high prayer room of the Cathedral of the Holy Light, the "Holy Princess" Veronica is quietly kneeling in front of the statue of the God of Light, her hands folded on her chest, her eyes are closed and motionless, the hazy holy light envelops her, and reflects the warmth and light of the whole room.

Veronica didn't pray for long, though, she slowly opened her eyes, stood up unhurriedly and turned in the direction of the door, and after waiting quietly for two seconds, the door to the prayer room was quietly pushed open.

A high-ranking goddess with short hair and an ordinary face walked in, her body exuded a quiet and soft shimmer, with a pious and holy aura similar to Veronica, after seeing the remaining holy light in the prayer room, the goddess officer nodded slightly: "His Majesty the Pope is looking for you." ”

"I see." Veronica whispered, but before leaving the prayer room, she couldn't help but pause and take a deep look at her longtime friend.

Sandy stood there quietly, still so quiet and gentle, this kind girl who had grown up with her since she was a child had become a high-ranking goddess official as good as herself, but the relationship between the two could never go back to the past.

In Veronica's gaze, Sandy was enveloped in a cloud of light that even penetrated her skin and bones, giving her a translucent cast of light. Veronica looked at Sandy's body, in that light-forged body, where it should have been a heart, there was a crystal light dancing at the moment, just looking at that light, Veronica felt that the holy light on her body was slightly agitated.

"Any more questions?" Sandy noticed Veronica's pause and turned her head slightly to ask.

Veronica shook her head, "No, praise be to the Light." ”

Leaving the prayer room and heading to the Great Chapel, through an open-air garden and two long corridors, the highest priests of the Church of the Light walked up and down these sacred stone paths, pious and holy people that resonated with the Holy Light, making the temple glow brightly even after dark. Veronica folded her hands in the wide sleeves of her priest's robes, and walked quietly with her head slightly bowed, not talking to anyone or looking around, as every pious priest does, immersing herself in the light of the light.

She saw one high-ranking priest after another walking past her, their gorgeous priest robes wrapped in clouds of hazy light, some of which only floated on the surface of flesh and blood, and some of which had completely replaced the essence of "human", and this mass of light-forged bodies was a manifestation of piety, and it was also the most powerful power guarantee of the Holy Light Church.

Veronica walked through the hallway, and the attendant opened the door of the Great Church for her, and she saw that the spokesman of the God of Light in the world, the supreme ruler of the Holy Light Church, and the most prestigious religious leader on the continent of Loren, St. Ivan III was sitting quietly on the golden throne of the Great Temple.

This old man, who has lived for one hundred and fifty years, has a thin body, white beard, and age spots and folds that represent the passage of time can be seen everywhere on his exposed skin, he looks dying, old and weak, as if he will be called by the Lord at any time, but Veronica knows very well that weakness is only his appearance, and the endless light gives him real strength, as long as this old man's mind is still functioning, and his brain is not dead, he can mobilize the surging power of light at any time to destroy all the enemies of the church, Or shelter all devout believers.

In Veronica's sight, St. Ivan III did not even have a human form at all, he was a burning torch of holy light, sitting upright on that magnificent golden throne, and in the hazy and illusory shadow behind the torch of holy light, she could even see a trace of the face of the god of light, as well as some silhouettes from the divine realm.

"Veronica, my lord's pious child, you are here," St. Ivan III began, his low, slow tone tinged with tenderness and trust, "the Lord is calling you. ”

"I have been enlightened in prayer," Veronica said, bowing her head, "the stars are in the right place, the power of resonance between the celestial bodies will open the way to truth, and the time has come to receive the call." ”

"Come, the most gifted spiritual daughter of seven hundred years, you have received the highest lineage of the Church of Light, you have received my personal guidance, you have been exposed to the most mystical knowledge and the most holy and mighty power, you are well prepared for this day......" St. Ivan III's old voice echoed in the Great Sanctuary, and with his words, a platinum scepter gradually emerged from the air and floated to Veronica, "My child, take hold of this scepter and face the revelation that the Lord has left you, This is your destiny. ”

Veronica looked at the platinum scepter silently, her face expressionless, but she didn't move either.

The voice of St. Ivan III seemed to come from a long distance: "My child? What are you waiting for? ”

The power of light in the Great Sanctuary began to stir slightly, and Veronica reached out and slowly but surely grasped the scepter.

"I'd love to talk to the Lord."

A majestic pillar of light rose from the Great Sanctuary, and the pillar of light even pierced through the heavy dome of the Grand Sanctuary, penetrated the thick clouds, and shot straight in the direction of the ultimate mysterious star "Ao" in distant space.

At this moment, solemn sacred music appeared out of thin air, and all the bells of the entire cathedral rang at the same time, and the priests in the church and the believers in the city stopped their work, and they listened attentively to the sound of each second, and everyone involuntarily appeared with a calm smile on their faces, and drew the emblem of the god of light on their chests, and began to pray sincerely.

Veronica, on the other hand, felt her spirit transcend her body, and she "saw" her vision rise rapidly, soaring upward, and soon she had crossed the dome of the cathedral, and the whole city of St. Sunil had shrunk into a small dot in her vision, and she had passed through the clouds, through the dark starry sky, through countless indescribable shadows and visions—and finally, she had stopped this mad journey in a place of endless light.

She stood in an endless expanse, with light-forged walls, towers, and emblems rising at the end of the horizon, and a river like falling stars stretching across the sky and slanting into the earth.

And directly in front of her vision is the "Lord".

The Lord was a huge crystalline of light, and He floated in the very center of this light-cast realm, and the crystal-like substance formed his body, and the crystal was not shaped, and the whole seemed to be a changeable, angular, angular, and multi-faceted crystal nucleus floating in the air, and although He did not speak, Veronica heard a voice echoing in her head:

"Come forward, touch Him, listen to Him......

"He is your protector and the haven that your souls look forward to......

"You are safe only under His protection......"

Veronica stared at the changing polyhedral crystal nucleus, her legs already shaking, her body moving forward as if it were about to break free from the control of her brain, and a massive force was tearing at her spirit at the same time, making her heterogeneous from the inside out, an extension of the changeable crystal......

Infinite power, knowledge, mysteries, power, money, and even god-like eternity are at your fingertips right now.

Veronica took a deep breath and smiled: "We've waited too long for this day......"

On the second day of the "Day of the Stars", the southern border was still clear overnight: it was another good day for stargazing.

Immediately after dinner, Hetty went back to her room to fetch her silver stargazing disk, but Rebecca was just standing at the windowsill and staring at the night sky outside, looking at the twinkling stars, and suddenly wrinkled her nose and looked a little annoyed on her face.

But no one noticed the viscount, she was just stunned for a moment, and then turned and walked towards her room.

The "Day of the Stars" was a very important day for the mages, but it had little to do with her.

She couldn't control the stargazing disk, and naturally she couldn't sense any magic-related mysteries from the changes in the astrology, and when she was a child, she had stood on the terrace with Aunt Hetty and her own teachers, staring at the night sky with wide eyes, but ......

That's a super boring thing.

She doesn't like stars at all.

Rebecca walked back to her room, trying to fill her head with runes and circles and not thinking about anything else, but a tall figure waited in the hallway, and she had to stop.

"Ancestor?" She looked at Gawain stunned, "What's wrong?" ”

"Today is the day when the stars shine brightest, don't you go to the terrace to watch the stars like Hetty?"

"No," Rebecca shook her head vigorously, showing a nonchalant look, "I can't read again, I want to sleep every time I look at the stars......"

Looking at the girl in front of him who was not good at disguise, Gawain couldn't help laughing: "I have a gift for you." ”

"Gifts?" Rebecca's eyes lit up slightly, "What gift?!" ”

Gawain took the thing from his side that he had spent a lot of time trying out the craftsmen to make: "A good thing that allows you to see a lot of stars without resorting to a stargazing disk." ”

Rebecca looked at it curiously—it was a large, uneven metal tube, two sections that seemed to be inlaid with crystals, and an adjustable knob in the middle of the tube, as well as a snap mechanism to connect to the bracket.

It had a strange style, and it was different from the machine drawings drawn by her ancestors, but somehow, Rebecca was fascinated by it at the first sight of it.

"What is this?" She asked curiously.

"Telescope," Gawain laughed, "Eagle Eye without mana." ”
