282 Death Day (1/2)

The sorcerers and the alchemy warlocks who came back from Yala had travelled a long way. They had all returned from a distant continent, and everyone was awaiting their news.

Many people wondered what had happened to them in that mysterious kingdom, and they especially wanted to know how many of the shocking rumors that they had heard were true. However, all of the sorcerers and alchemy warlocks were silent upon their returns.

In fact, they acted as if nothing had happened. This kind of unusual behavior made everyone feel that something was amiss.

”It's unbelievably peaceful here, yet I feel like a storm is coming! Did you smell that?” Jonathan asked.

He was hugging his wife Rosia, and they were watching the civilians who were walking around Tephis, as well as the conductors, who were ringing bells in their carriages.

There were many visitors in the city, as well as many workers. There were also children selling newspapers, running up and down the streets, while the farmers in the city were carrying their fruits and vegetables that they had grown in the countryside. They had brought them into the city to sell them.

These ordinary people were the epitome of this city, as well as of the system of this entire human world. It was a peaceful and tranquil world, and everyone could find their place here.

Jonathan looked at everything happening, and it was just as it usually was. But, his heart couldn't help pounding intensely. He was unsettled, and he kind of had a hunch that a radical change of was about to happen for this new coming era.

As Rosia looked at her husband, she was confused. She looked up and saw the clear sky with no clouds in it and said, ”We are having such good weather today. Surely, there won't be a storm today.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

Before this, Marina had accepted Jonathan as her student at Akkad Alchemy College in front of all of the teachers and alchemy warlocks. It was the first time in decades that Marina had accepted a student mentee, and it represented the inheritance of the alchemy technique of Marina Bosa. It also meant that Jonathan had stepped into the core circle of the alchemy warlocks in this world.

This was what Jonathan had always wanted. However, after everything that had happened, Jonathan truly saw how this world really was, especially how powerful the gods were, which had greatly broadened his horizons.

At that moment, as Jonathan held his wife in his arms, his eyes were filled with various emotions. ”This is an era of great changes, yet this is also an era full of opportunities! I, Jonathan Brown, am destined to have a leading role in this era!”

Just after he finished talking, one of the kids selling newspapers waved a newspaper that seemed to have some urgent news printed on it as he yelled, ”Extra! Today's news! Read all about it!”

The boy then began shouting a synopsis of the article on the front page, ”The king of Pusuote announced that every April 20th is Death Day! This is the most important worship day for the Temple of Sky. On this day, all of the disciples must…”

Jonathan stopped the sales kid mid-sentence and said, ”Give me one of those!”

Jonathan knew that there were three levels in the Temple of Sky, which were the Godly Sky Sector, the Death Underworld Sector, and the human sector. Since the Goddess of Death was the most important goddess in the Temple of Sky, Jonathan knew that the King Cetisius of Pusuote wouldn't just announce a piece of news like this for no reason. Besides, the gods were all acting weirdly at this time, so many people were wondering what exactly they were up to.

Jonathan read the newspaper carefully, discovering that there was going to be a grand ceremony on April 20th, which would last for a month. As it was on the front page, which was such a prominent position in the newspaper, one could infer that it would be very special!

When Jonathan went back to Akkad Alchemy College to attend classes the second day, he was called to the principal's office by Marina.

”Have you heard of Death Day of the Temple of Sky, Jonathan?” Marina asked, while she took off her glasses and put them on the table, a solemn look on her face.

Jonathan nodded and answered, ”Yes, I did. I reckon that something unusual is about to happen!”

Marina smiled. ”Of course it's unusual! I heard that Cetisius received the oracle. I don't know what the oracle is about, but it definitely has to do with the gods. His actions must mean something significant! Besides, since he summoned so many disciples at the same time, he must be up to something!”
