Starliege Church.
Maya led Dodoro through a starlit corridor with the help of her cane. When they walked into the Stargazing Hall, the huge hall that was comparable to the size of a public square was already filled with people.
No one made a sound. Everyone sat on the ground quietly. Circle after circle, they surrounded and protected the Starlight Reception Platform in the center of the ceremony.
The seats in the Starliege Hall were arranged according to a certain pattern. The stronger one was, the closer to the center of the hall. For example, almost all the Observers sat under the reception platform in the center of the hall.
Of course, it was only "almost". There were always some mavericks who did not follow the script. For example, a man who was as handsome as a demon and had goat horns on his head was lazily hanging upside down from the gate of the Stargazing Hall. He had chains around his feet and goat horns on his head. He was one of the Observers of the Starliege Church, 'The Hanged Loser' Schicker.
Everyone who entered the Stargazing Hall would pass under the Hanged Man.
Maya did the same. However, when she saw Schicker, a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes. Schicker represented 'pervert' among the Observers. Perhaps it was because he had the bloodline of a goat-horned demon, but he had a very bad reputation among the witches.
Schicker's attention was attracted by Maya's disgust. He cast his gaze over, and there was an unfathomable glint in his evil eyes. "So it's Witch Maya."
"Mister Schicker," Maya said coldly and walked into the hall with Dodoro.
Schicker did not mind Maya's attitude. He was used to it. However, looking at Dodoro's back, Schker seemed to have thought of something and put on a wicked smile.
Maya's mood was not affected at all. She quickly walked to the center of the hall.
Although Maya had not reached the level of an Observer, her power and prestige in prophecy made her one of the closest to the top of the pyramid. According to the rules, she would naturally be seated near the center. Every Prophet could bring an apprentice with them. Since Maya was sitting in the center, Dodoro got to sit in the center as well.
When Maya took a seat near the center, several observers sitting on the starlight reception platform also cast a kind smile at Maya.
Then, they looked at Dodoro in unison.
As for the other Prophet apprentices, they didn't care. However, Dodoro was different. During the Starliege Day, Dodoro spat out blood for no reason. According to Lupanye's speculation, he must have seen something in the Starliege Mystery.
It was a great achievement to learn something from the Starliege Mystery. Many official wizards might not be able to see anything on the Stargazing Day. Only the observers could obtain information steadily. Therefore, even though the Starliege Mystery was a strategic item, no wizard organization was bold enough to take it. because even if they had it, they could not understand what it was.
However, this wasn't the main reason why the Observer was interested in Dodoro. The main reason was that they couldn't see through Dodoro's past.
Even Lupanye, the current leader of the Starliege Temple, said that he could not see through Dodoro's past.
The wizards who had studied the future, time, and fate were curious about Dodoro.
Just like last time, they could not see Dodoro's past.
However, what surprised the observers was that Dodoro was very calm under their gazes. Dodoro was so calm that he looked like an emotionless machine.
"Lacking basic humanity … such a person will not be blessed by fate." The speaker was a serious middle-aged man among the Observers. His name was Seurat, nicknamed "The Innocent Reader". He was the one who despised Dodoro the most. It was probably because he was humiliated by his rival Ivan on the Starliege Day because of Dodoro.
"You're saying that as long as you have humanity, you will be blessed by fate." The mocking voice came from the mouth of another observer. Needless to say, it was Ivan, the Wanderer of Balance. "Fate is fair to everyone because it doesn't care about anyone at all, let alone care about anyone."
Seurat sneered but did not say anything. It was not because he was afraid of Ivan, but because Lupanye had spoken.
Lupanye smiled at Dodoro. "Last time we met, you had just become an apprentice. I didn't expect you to become a level three apprentice in just a few years. The speed was so fast that it was rarely seen in the world. Not bad, not bad. "
Dodoro lowered his head and said, "My training speed isn't the fastest among all of us."
Lupanye was surprised by Dodoro's answer. "… Are you talking about dimensional wizards? You don't have to compare yourself to him. "
"I do," Dodoro said without hesitation. There was an indescribable determination in his eyes.
"It's a good thing to have such a strong desire to win. Otherwise, if you're short-sighted, you'll only become a vulgar person." "You're right. But if you want to compare yourself to a dimensional wizard … I don't think you're being too ambitious." "Yeah, he's a real genius." The Prophets nearby heard Dodoro and Lupanye's conversation and couldn't help but whisper to each other.
In fact, they shared the same thoughts as the others. Even the Observers believed that Dodoro only wanted to win. After all, both Dodoro and Angor belonged to Brute Cavern. If they were in Dodoro's shoes, they wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
Only a few people in the room could tell that Dodoro didn't want to win.
Maya understood Dodoro's intention. Dodoro simply wanted to catch up with Angor or at least become useful to the latter.
Lupanye didn't know about the relationship between Angor and Dodoro, but he could tell that something was going on.
Lupanye smiled and didn't continue the topic. Instead, he turned to Dodoro and said: "You saw the future during the stargazing day. I hope you can see it this time as well.
Of course, if you do, I hope you won't end up like last time. I hope you can share it with everyone. "
Last time, Dodoro saw something, but he didn't want to tell Lupanye anything. That offended a bunch of Prophets, so Lupanye decided to warn him this time.
Dodoro only nodded politely without saying anything. Lupanye didn't mind. Instead, he looked at the gate of the Stargazing Hall.
After a while, six people in different clothes walked in through the door.
"These six people are all Observers?!" The originally quiet hall instantly became lively because of the appearance of the six Observers.
The six new observers ignored the sudden uproar. They nodded at Lapuye and flew directly to the Starlight Reception Platform.
Once they were seated, Lapuye said slowly, "I don't think anyone else will come."
When Lupuye said this, everyone in the hall understood that the Stargazing Day was about to begin.
"I originally thought that there would only be five observers on this Stargazing Day. I didn't expect another six to come!"
"There are eleven observers this time. That's the largest number of observers we've seen in the past thirty years, right?"
"Is there going to be a great prophecy this time?"
"I don't think so. I have a bad feeling about this. Is there going to be a disaster? But isn't the shadow of the Demon God already over? "
The voices of the Prophets sounded from the mouths of the surrounding Wizards.
Lupanye didn't answer their questions. Instead, he signaled Schker to close the gate of the Stargazing Hall. Then, he flew above the reception platform and activated the Mystery of Stars hidden in an alternate dimension.
As the candles in the hall slowly went out, the entire hall was filled with dazzling starlight. The Stargazing Day, the most important event in the wizarding world, had officially begun.
