This is the Shining Plane, home to the Crown Star Church.
Dozens of temples, bathed in brilliance, stand one upon another deep in the starry sky. Each temple houses a beam of light piercing the void, drawing in starlight. This falling starlight illuminates the dark world like daytime.
On the day when stars converge, there is no night, only a shining day, illuminating thousands of planes.
Every extraordinary being in the Shining Plane understands upon witnessing this magical sight… the biannual Star Observing Day has arrived.
Star Observing Day is one of the grandest events in the Wizarding World of the Southern Region.
Such an event is extraordinary, attracting the attention of the entire Wizarding World. The slightest ripple here can influence the grand scheme of things and may even be etched deeply into the annals of history.
Star Observing Day is such an event, one that could potentially alter the course of history!
When Star Observing Day is held, nearly all the prophecy wizards of the Southern Region gather at the Crown Star Church. They come to enter the Star Observing Hall, to glimpse the future star maps.
Today is no different. The usually serene Crown Star Church is now enlivened by the arrival of prophecy wizards from various places.
If viewed from above, one would see the normally deserted paths now dotted with small black points like ants, each representing a prophecy wizard.
They are slowly climbing towards the highest peak of the Crown Star Church, converging towards the grand hall radiating endless starlight.
The place they were headed to was the Star Observing Hall!
Just as the Research Institute was to alchemists, the Star Observing Hall was an unquestionably sacred place for prophecy wizards!
The journey to the Star Observing Hall was one made on foot by all. Even though the Crown Star Church had not issued any decree against flying there, these prophecy wizards still chose to walk. It was a sign of respect for the sacred site and a manifestation of their devout faith.
On this long path to the Star Observing Hall, an elderly lady leaning on a cane and a tall, slender young man were slowly making their way to the mountain summit.
These two were Witch Maya and Totoro from the Savage Grottoes.
“Remember, when the Mystery of Starlight is initiated, no matter what information you receive, don’t react as you did last time, showing any anomaly. The spiritual senses of the prophecy wizards are extremely sharp; even a slight movement can lead them to deduce that you have found something,” Witch Maya earnestly advised Totoro.
Totoro didn’t say anything, just nodded his head.
Witch Maya glanced at Totoro’s calm face and sighed softly in her heart. This young man was good in many ways, but he was too aloof, almost as if he lacked emotion.
While for prophecy wizards, excessive unnecessary emotions could affect the accuracy of their predictions, a complete absence of emotion was also not conducive to getting accurate answers.
Witch Maya wanted to persuade him, but after weighing the options, she decided not to speak.
Totoro was different from other prophecy wizards; he should stick to making prophecies in the way that felt most comfortable to him…
“Have you decided what you’re going to predict this time with the Mystery of Starlight?” Maya asked curiously.
Totoro did not respond, but a mocking voice came from beside them: “What? Does Witch Maya think that a mere apprentice can discern any prophecy from the Mystery of Starlight?”
Maya turned around and saw a dark-skinned, muscular man who had appeared nearby at some unknown time.
This man was big and rugged in appearance, with the only striking feature on his face being the blue fish scales under his eyes, resembling a teardrop, or perhaps… a crying clown.
This ‘dark man’, completely incongruent with the appearance of a prophecy wizard, was indeed a prophecy wizard. Moreover, he was not of low status among prophecy wizards.
He was the prophecy wizard from the Song of the Deep Sea——Tuvalu, a follower of the ‘Ask the Bell’ prophecy school.
“So, it’s Tuvalu,” Maya said indifferently, glancing at Tuvalu with a mocking expression. “I’ve only heard that Imagan has a habit of eavesdropping. When did you pick up the same habit?”
Imagan, also a wizard from the Song of the Deep Sea, was rumored to have excellent relations with some giants from another world, even suspected of being a spy from another plane.
Tuvalu and Imagan were not from the same faction in the Song of the Deep Sea and even had a dislike for each other. However, being part of the Song of the Deep Sea, Tuvalu still had to stand with Imagan against Maya’s sarcasm.
Tuvalu, looking somewhat displeased, said, “If you had spoken using a transmitting spell, I naturally wouldn’t have heard. But your unguarded conversation was open for me to listen to straightforwardly.”
“But having heard your talk, I now feel like cleaning my ears, utterly unenriching.” Tuvalu’s gaze shifted to Totoro: “Especially him, an apprentice dreaming of challenging the Mystery of Starlight? Don’t be delusional.”
Maya replied, “You shouldn’t be so absolute in your words. You know, in this world, there are many extremely lucky people.”
“Are you referring to him?” Tuvalu pointed at Totoro.
Maya nodded: “If you don’t believe it, why not seek an answer from the Ask the Bell? Or maybe, make a prophecy?”
Tuvalu: “Everyone knows that no spells should be used on this path. Are you inciting me?”
Maya: “I’m just making a suggestion.”
Tuvalu scoffed: “The eloquence of Witch Maya has improved a lot more than before.”
Maya: “Thank you.”
Tuvalu: “I wasn’t praising you. I came here to tell you that I will do the task assigned by the Sea God. However, if you want information from me, you’ll have to pay a certain price.”
As for what the price was, Tuvalu didn’t say. Instead, he left with an air of arrogance.
Watching Tuvalu’s retreating figure, Maya’s brows furrowed slightly: “It seems he’s raising the stakes.”
Totoro, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke: “Mentor, what does he mean?”
Maya shook her head: “It’s just about a prophecy information exchange, don’t worry about it. Let’s return to our previous topic. I won’t ask what you want to prophesy. But remember, you are favored by destiny. You need to discern the visions you see; sometimes the information in them may not be useful to you.”
After a pause, Maya added: “Also, do not spy for too long. Even those favored by the heavens can one day exhaust their fortune.”
Totoro nodded his head.
“No more talk, we’ve arrived,” Maya halted her steps, gazing towards the grand palace under the starlight, a hint of admiration flickering in her eyes.
After a moment of silence, Maya patted Totoro’s shoulder: “Let’s go, we’re entering.”
…
As Maya and Totoro entered the Star Observing Hall, Angel also arrived at the Pat Estate in the Wilderness of Dreams.
Angel came this time seeking Sanders, primarily to inquire about “Virtual Magic Power” and to discuss it with Sanders.
However, when Sanders saw Angel, he spoke first: “Other matters can wait. Return to reality first, the Dawn of Star Observing is upon us.”
