Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

After the singing stopped, there was a long silence.

Sadness and tiny hopes are like seeds, from Esther's voice, spread to the hearts of all present, they stay in the conveyed emotions, and have not been able to recover from it for a long time.

Two skylarks and a few pigeons flew away in a fluttering motion. The sound of their flapping wings seemed to break the stagnant time and space here, and gradually brought everything around them back to normal. People recovered from the shock.

Rich was the first to applaud. His hands were blushing and he didn't realize it. His face was full of naive smirks.

In fact, everyone had smiles on their faces. Although they were different, they all felt the resonance from the singing, and many people applauded along with Rich.

Before the daze on Esther's face completely dissipated, she was dazed by the enthusiastic applause around her, and her face was as red as if it had been cooked.

When Agnes and Josephine rushed up to hug her, Esther was almost crushed by them, Norn seemed to want to rush up but was embarrassed, and was walking around the three of them awkwardly , Candela rarely showed a natural smile, his eyes full of admiration.Rich raised his arms high and thanked the passers-by who were still applauding outside, almost jumping up from the ground for joy.

Galwin wiped the tears on his face with his fingers, licked the bend of his fingers, and tasted the long-lost salty taste with the tip of his tongue.Since he was expelled by his father and changed his mother's surname, he hasn't cried for many years, and he has almost forgotten the feeling of burning eyes.

"Luna Duboa..." Calvin whispered the false name, and looked up at the sky again.

For some reason, the smog in the sky dissipated slightly, and the gray-blue distance behind faintly revealed, making the whole square much clearer. This is quite rare for Backlund's perpetually gloomy weather.

Soon, Galwin got rid of the sentimentality touched by the singing and returned to his normal state: at his suggestion, Rich began to play a brisk dance music, while Galwin bowed and performed aristocratic manners. With a full face, he stretched out his hand in the direction of Esther: "I don't know if I have the honor to invite the elves of our music to dance together?"

Another slender and tender hand fell into Galwin's, and when he looked up, he saw Agnes's smiling face, her apple-colored lipstick made the smile on her face sweeter and more enthusiastic: "Esther You are shaking your head, do you mind if I dance?"

The corner of Galwin's mouth twitched: "No, I don't mind. Then please, Miss Fashion."

Esther shook the maraca happily this time, and accompanied Ricky along with Josephine and Candela.Esther's face was still flushed, and her bright smile matched the sunflower hat on her head.

Norn stared at Esther with burning eyes, and his heart was peaceful except for joy. Those ravings and voices that troubled him were isolated by the wonderful "Birch Forest" and left him for a short time.

Norn raised and lowered his hand, and he didn't have the courage to make the sign of the cross over his heart in public.

After this "band activity" was over, the group of people walked towards the apartment on Lily of the Valley Street in a noisy way. Galwin and Rich jumped into a rented carriage halfway to the fruit and vegetable market, and brought back a wide variety of ingredients.

According to Rich, he wanted to reward everyone who actively participated in the activities today. Except for Josephine, no one was allowed to enter the kitchen, so they could only spend time lazily in the dining room.

Kendra followed Esther almost every step of the way, and Agnes even dragged Esther to gossip and chat non-stop. Neither Galwin nor Norn found a chance to communicate with Esther in private. , this made Galwin a little annoyed, but Norn kept smiling, interjecting a few words from the side from time to time, acting much more active than usual.

Rich’s culinary skills are indeed not bragging. The Fenepot Rice and Fenepot Seafood Noodles he made are very generous. Everyone shared some on the plate. Esther bit her tongue because she ate too fast .

Galwin joked that the only person in the square who didn't cry today finally shed tears because of the food.

After wiping away her tears, Esther laughed along with everyone.

If it wasn't for the fact that she was carrying a deadly feud, hiding extraordinary powers, and being unable to figure out the secrets of Xiao Qi and Xiao Wu, and even herself, Esther really hoped that this kind of life could continue forever.

It was impossible, she had always known in her heart.

-

Night sinks into the homes, bringing weary people back under their roofs, and Sunday, the goddess of the night, is about to leave, to be replaced by Monday, the earth-goddess.

When Esther was sitting on the low sofa, someone knocked on the door suddenly. Based on her spiritual intuition that she began to pretend to be dead again, Esther guessed that the person outside the door was Norn—the young man standing behind the door proved that Her guess was right.

Norn looked anxious and expectant, even in the dark corridor, his eyes seemed to be shining: "Good evening, Luna."

"Good evening, are you still up so late? Everyone looks tired today."

"It's a good thing you didn't sleep, I finally came to talk to you about something," Nuo En glanced sideways at the stairs, he didn't hear any movement from downstairs, so he couldn't miss this opportunity, "Tomorrow I'm going to see you Sir, that is a very dignified man. I don't know if you—will you come with me?"

Esther hesitated: "I'm sorry, but I have to go to work in the cafe tomorrow, otherwise Ms. Martha will be very angry."

"It won't take up your working time during the day, only at night! The party starts at night, and the gentleman probably has time to receive us after the party is over..."

Norn's eyes were too sincere, and Esther couldn't refuse his humble and pleading demeanor. She nodded in embarrassment: "I see. Where is the location?"

"Queens! So you don't have to worry about anything, just go with me, the law and order over there is very safe."

Esther was noncommittal to this, but out of trust in Norn, she responded with a smile: "The main reason is that the distance is not close. We'd better leave early, and we can go there when I get back to the apartment?"

Norn happily replied with a sincere smile: "Of course! I will hire a rental carriage and driver, and you don't need to worry about the itinerary."

"I see, then you should rest earlier, your dark circles haven't disappeared yet." Esther pointed to Norn's eyes.

"Thank you, Luna, you don't know how important this is to me," Norn rubbed his eyes and waved his hands embarrassedly, "Good night, I will definitely have a good sleep tonight."

"Good night Norn, I wish you a sweet dream."

Nuoen nodded, watching Esther close the door, and hearing the sound of the doorknob being locked, Nuoen's smile deepened, and he walked towards [-]'s own room.

He must have a good dream tonight.
