All of this originated from that old guy, Marquis York, who would run to Mayer Restaurant from ti to ti for a al.
Later, when hosting private friends, he specifically borrowed Louis's private box to entertain guests.
With this back and forth, Chinese cuisine at Mayer's started to make the rounds.
This is called brand effect, and it was the kind personally endorsed by Marquis York.
While chatting, Louis asked about sothing:
"So, what's going on with your friend? She doesn't seem to talk much."
Louis glanced at the girl sitting calmly next to Alice.
Her face looked sowhat pale, sitting there with vacant eyes.
Alice took the brewed tea from Louis and looked at the girl, saying:
"Sandra, do you mind if I talk about it?"
The girl seed to finally co to her senses and reluctantly nodded.
Alice then spoke:
"Do you rember the incident of our forr ntor Rogen's death?"
Louis nodded and said:
"I've heard of it. What's up?"
After hearing Louis's voice, Sandra's body instinctively trembled a little.
Her voice carried a kind of unspeakable fear:
"Last night, I saw Mr. Rogen appear on the school playground."
"He has co back to life."
As soon as the words were spoken, the previously lively scene fell into silence.
Soone instinctively rubbed their skin, feeling goosebumps rise.
Especially the four-mber Sage Sword group, who had talked about this thing in a dim dormitory before.
In that instant, even the corners of Yudo's mouth started twitching.
Gregory, who was drinking in silence nearby, slamd his glass down on the table with a "thud" and calmly said:
"There is no such thing as resurrection, it's just scaring oneself."
A guy from the Sword of Martial Arts group refuted:
"Resurrection is real, but whether they can still be considered a person? That's hard to say."
"Whether they are still the original person is even harder to say."
"Don't forget about the example of the living dead in the past."
Everyone looked at each other.
For a mont, the atmosphere turned eerie.
Bam slamd the table heavily and said:
"Who cares whether he's dead or alive, if he really cos back to life, just have a fight with him."
Alice chuckled and said:
"Are you sure? Don't forget that Master Rogen was a paradigm-level strongman, and it was a paradigm-level who had already walked the path. Are you sure he won't just cut you down like a lon?"
Bam was furious.
Look down on people, huh!
He said, "No problem, as long as we all go at him together, even if the resurrected Master Rogen still has peak strength, we could perhaps knock him off his horse."
Pep said speechlessly:
"If you can, go for it, Bam, you work hard to hold off Master Rogen, while I rush to ask Mr. Kulin for help, striving to keep a complete corpse of you."
Bam snorted and didn't speak anymore.
Louis said strangely:
"What was the situation with that teacher you saw?"
According to Louis from what he learned from Beatrice's side, the teacher should have beco a shadow creature.
The curse of the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm entangled him, turning him into a shadow acolyte.
But later, when they took him away, the Church of Glory had already made a clear judgnt that he was indeed dead.
The abnormal power surrounding him should have been flushed out by the power of glory, putting him into eternal rest.
The priests of the Church of Glory are quite reliable, otherwise, it wouldn't be the first church on the continent.
But now, the corpse has co back to life?
A al beca sowhat subtle because of this bizarre incident.
Fortunately, everyone quickly ignored it and continued with the music and dance.
The crowd more or less greeted each other.
Only then did the group quietly disperse.
...
[Location: Tino City Palace]
Olivia felt especially exhausted today.
After freshening up, she went to bed and fell asleep almost as soon as her head hit the pillow.
In a blur, she seed to dream about things before her reincarnation.
That year, she had just escaped from the Imperial Palace.
Living as an adventurer on the side of the Lokeshi Empire, one of the three great human empires.
At that ti, she endured the pain of the curse and had just broken through to the exemplar level.
Accompanied by her rise in power, her carefree self went to accept her first exemplar level mission.
The first exemplar level task was easier than she had imagined, without any surprises, and she made a small profit.
Just as the year was ending and unable to return to Ense, she decided to play in a certain region in the central part of the Lokeshi Empire.
After her trip, she suddenly heard that a prehistoric temple had been unearthed locally.
Inside, there was a worship of ancient deities known as the Night Chanter and the Unseen Maiden.
The swan at the ti thought that she loved spending her days sleeping, which seed to be a perfect match with this goddess known as the Night Chanter.
Driven by curiosity, she decided to visit the ancient temple, despite never having believed in gods.
In the ancient temple, she finally saw the goddess's statue and realized that the true identity of the Night Chanter was the legendary Dark Night Goddess Shire.
On the temple murals, she saw a history written in ancient script.
It was rumored that the creator of the Star Continent vanished from it after creating the world.
With the singular god's departure, the ancient Primordial Era began.
During this period, there were still very few races on the continent, and the numbers of major groups were not high.
The continent was more filled with strange god-made creatures left from the period of the creators.
At the end of the Primordial Era, a tremble in the chaotic void gave birth to the oldest deities of the world.
Among them, two opposing goddesses erged.
One was a great entity of light and creation, the Ancient Moon Goddess Suren.
The other was a terrifying entity symbolizing darkness and destruction, the Ancient Dark Night Goddess Shire.
In the temple, Olivia saw a lot of records about this goddess left from the Primordial tis.
The creator, after creating the stars, hoped to split the chaotic void into chaos and order.
But strangely, the essence of Goddess Shire was tightly linked to the original void and chaos.
This completely contradicted the creator's act of creating the world.
Representing the complete void before ti began to flow, Shire coldly planned to return the world to the tranquil void of the Primordial tis.
This goddess, who should have been adored by many followers like other ancient deities, beca an enemy of all civilization and order.
Generations ago, Shire and her church had already withdrawn from history.
Many believe her godhood shattered and dissipated into history.
Yet many also think she is not dead.
Fearing Shire's power, people in the distant past built this temple.
They feared that one day, when the original darkness returned, they would be Shire's target for forsaking their faith.
This is the origin of this temple.
At that ti, many adventurers ca, hoping to find so treasures in the ancient ruins.
Unfortunately, apart from large murals, there was nothing else here.
Or perhaps the first adventurers who arrived had already taken the treasures?
As she walked in the temple, she looked up and was startled to see a massive mass of flesh suspended in the sky, from which a bizarre voice emanated.
It said, "Why?"
It said, "Why ?"
It said, "How much longer."
Nurous adventurers passing by seed unable to see the decaying mass.
This absurd scene scared her into a cold sweat, and she turned to leave this sinister place.
As she was about to leave the temple, she instinctively turned back to look at the location of the mass.
Suddenly.
She was horrified to find the mass slowly floating in the air, a slit opening on its grotesque body revealing a bloodshot single eye.
It was eerily watching her.
"Child of eternal night, you must break your curse."
Then, she felt her body temperature slowly drop, and her consciousness began to blur.
She felt her body continuously sinking, descending into an endless depth.
The pain of drowning was taking everything from her.
That feeling was just like...
Ah!
Just like now.
A trendous chill made the swan's body shudder, and she abruptly sat up in bed.
Realizing her surroundings, she was already soaked in cold sweat.
"Is this... another nightmare?"
She got up, went to the bathroom, wiped herself down, and murmured to herself:
"Oh goddess, I just used a bit of the ancient knowledge from your temple to lift the curse, shouldn't be any trouble, right."
After washing her slender body, Olivia lay back down on the bed.
She was ready to continue dreaming.
What she didn't know was that in a corner of Saint Louis, a pair of deep eyes slowly opened, as if realizing sothing.
Those eyes were filled with ferocity and killing intent.
