Mystery: Shadow of Order

"Mr. Adrian"

Rawls followed the voice and saw that Beilein and Delia had both changed their clothes, both wearing long black ruffled skirts and tulle hats, and were walking from the church square.

Rawls greeted him, took off his hat and said:

"Good evening, two ladies, we meet again."

Beilein and Delia bowed back, and then Delia asked:

"Mr. Adrian has been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I just arrived." Rawls smiled and pointed back to St. Samuel's Church, "The mass is about to start, let's go first."

"Ah, it's about to start! Delia, I'll say we're late."

Beilein turned her head to look at Delia, her tone somewhat complaining.

Rawls smiled and waved his hand, saying:

"It's okay, I didn't miss the Mass, and being late is a woman's right."

Delia next to her looked adoring and said softly:

"Emperor Roselle is really considerate to women!"

Great God! Is there anything else you didn't say? And also considerate of women? Believe it or not, I will translate your diary for you, so that you know what the surprise of TM is!

Rawls laughed awkwardly and hurriedly changed the subject:

"Let's go in quickly."

……

The three walked quietly into the church. Outside the large prayer hall of the church, there were already many people waiting.

Rawls and the others waited outside the large prayer hall for a while, and entered inside together with other believers who attended the Moon Mass under the guidance of the priest.

In the dim and quiet atmosphere, they were greeted by neat and ethereal chanting:

"The crimson full moon rises and reflects the earth,

"Everyone sank into sweet dreams, dreaming of themselves,

"Dream of parents, wife and children, this is forever"

As the holy and rhythmic voices reverberated layer by layer, the believers in the large prayer hall could not help but calm down. They seemed to have forgotten the troubles of life and no longer worried about various problems in the real world.

Under the guidance of several priests, they each found their seats and sat down. In front of the altar, Bishop Electra, who was in charge of this large mass, held the Apocalypse of the Night and began to give a simple sermon.

When this session came to an end, the priests picked up water and bread and distributed it to Rawls and others. This is the blessing of the night, and it is food shared by the living and the dead.

After eating the bread of average quality and drinking the water in the cup, Rawls saw candles lit up on the altar, and against the backdrop of darkness, like stars at night, emitting a reassuring light and heat.

At this time, Bishop Electra led the priests and everyone in the choir to recite in unison again:

"We'll look up at the night sky,

"Say his name tenderly: the goddess of the night

"Besides the Evernight Goddess, there is no other word,

"May the goddess be in the gap between the angels' singing

"Pick them with sweet silence,

"And in his tender right hand.

"If the goddess hears, she will surely agree,

"It will surely show a pure smile to the dead:

"Come, rest, sleep, my children"

The empty voice penetrated into the ears of every believer with a sacred feeling, and seemed to resonate with all the spirits present.

Rawls felt that his soul seemed to have been purified in some way. The memories of this month were like a movie flashing back in front of him, and his body and mind were completely relaxed at this moment.

Then, there seemed to be a quiet darkness in front of his eyes, a darkness without the slightest sound.

In the darkness, corpses lay there, their faces pale but serene, as if they were not dead, but sleeping.

Rawls walked peacefully in this darkness, suddenly stopped, and looked diagonally forward:

In the place where the moon flower blooms quietly, an old man wearing a lawyer's wig and a lawyer's robe is lying there quietly.

He was Rawls's father, Mason Adrian.

He closed his eyes lightly, with a smile on his face, as if he was having a sweet dream.

Rawls closed his eyes, and the holy and ethereal voice sounded in his ears:

"Cross your hands,

"Put it on your chest,

"Do that wordless prayer,

"And cry out from your heart:

"The only destination is peace"

He lowered his head, closed his eyes, raised his hands, crossed them on his chest, and repeated silently:

"The only destination is peace"

"The only destination is peace"

…………

This is an endless dark plain, where clumps of night herbs, sleep flowers and moon flowers grow wildly. The place is obviously full of life, but the entire plain seems to have fallen into dead silence.

A figure suddenly descended from the depths of the darkness. There is no sky or earth here, but the figure seems to come from the hanging red moon or stars.

He was wearing a layered but uncomplicated long black dress, embellished with countless bright lights, as if covering the starry night sky over him. His head was vague and hard to see, and he could only be sure that it was a woman~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He looked into another dark depth, where it was quiet and deep, as if there was nothingness.

Suddenly, a distorted and blurred pale golden figure appeared there, the surrounding darkness seemed to be ignited, and it was like layers of black waves rushing towards the golden figure.

The golden figure exudes an unusually viscous light, and the thick, grease-like light rushes towards the darkness, but like a moth to a fire, it instantly disappears into the endless darkness. There seemed to be an invisible hand in the darkness, pulling the twisted and blurred figure into the depths of the darkness, disappearing little by little.

He is still standing on the endless dark plain, looking at the darkness, the layered but not complicated long black dress is connected with the dark plain. Night herbs, deep sleep flowers, and moon flowers have become the embellishments on his long dress. .

After an unknown amount of time, the darkness quietly dissipated, and the pale golden figure reappeared.

The pale golden figure radiated light again in that darkness. The light was no longer sticky, like a cold candle, which would go out once it was blown.

The darkness suddenly moved again, the light on the pale golden figure dissipated immediately, but he found himself standing in front of him.

The blurred light on the golden figure's face dissipated, and a face appeared, with black hair and brown eyes, handsome features, the face of a man, "he" said:

"have not seen you for a long time."

"He"'s voice was extremely magnificent, but it never spread in the dark plain, and then the whole dark plain fell into dead silence again.

The face of the golden figure was a little embarrassed, and then he said in a deep voice:

"I'm here to fulfill the promise with you."

The darkness around the distorted and blurred golden figure surged toward "him" like a tide again, and the dark tide gradually began to dissolve the light on "him".
