Throne of Radiance

[Location: Holy Federation Steel City]

He woke up in a faint fragrance of flowers.

The fragrance was very special. During the days when his consciousness sank into the darkness without knowing the age, he almost thought that he was going to sink forever, but he was suddenly attracted by a faint fragrance wafting from a very far away.

He followed the fragrance instinctively.

Then, the eternal darkness receded, he opened his eyes with difficulty, and the bright lights in the ward shone on his eyelids.

He seemed to have had a long and incomparable dream.

After waking up, the first thing that greeted him was the tearful gaze of his fiancée who had been waiting by the bed for a long time, and the rapid ringing of the bell in the ward.

Then, there was a series of physical examinations and inquiries.

"The patient just woke up from a vegetative state, and the body still needs some time to recover..."

"...the brain tissue is normal, no obvious sequelae have been found, and further detailed examination may be required."

"A miracle! It's a miracle! A person who has been lying down for eight years and was almost diagnosed as brain dead can actually wake up again, and his health seems to be far better than usual..."

"...Miss Wei Ya, last time you refused to accept the diagnosis of brain death, claiming that the patient would definitely wake up, did you discover something that we didn't discover?"

The buzzing sound made his newly awakened mind feel like a computer that hadn't been turned on for a long time. Some couldn't load it, so he could only keep turning his eyeballs to look around.

In the clean and white ward, his eyes were quickly attracted by a small potted plant on the windowsill.

It was an unusually delicate little flower pot, and it was the style that the fiancée liked at first glance.In the flower pot, there is a large group of unknown flowers like snow. If you look closely, it is one after another of delicate and small white flowers clustered together.

The faint fragrance lingering in the nose came from there.

"...It seems that you also like this flower very much." At some time, his fiancee came to his bedside, and gently held his weak hand with her palm, with a joyful smile on her lips.

He opened his mouth, his voice was inaudible: "I, I seem to have smelled... the fragrance of flowers..."

Hearing this, the fiancée, who put her ear to his lips and could barely hear what he said, smiled brighter, and she murmured: "Yes! Yes! Sure enough, it is these flowers, these are the ones that bring blessings Lucky Flower is protecting you!"

He was confused: "What, what?"

The snow-white flowers on the window sill spread out like clouds, and the joyful and pious face of the fiancee was brighter and more splendid than the flowers.

She gently stretched out an index finger against the man's lips: "Hush. You just need to know that in the most desperate moment, there was a god who saved me. He pulled you up from the brink of hell and brought you back to me. around."

"—I am forever and ever and ever grateful to Him!"

"—God of the ever-brightening sun, please forgive me, I have abandoned my faith and become His believer!"

Facing the tears-filled eyes of his fiancée, the bewilderment on the man's face dissipated and turned into a gentle smile like water. He no longer explored whether all of this was true or not, but solemnly said: "Then, I also thank you from the bottom of my heart. Him. If the Sun God commits a crime, please let me bear it as well."

——Not only for my waking up at this moment, but also for the smile on your face that is no longer sad and full of joy.

The breeze blows through the window, and the snow-white petals flutter gently.

……

A piece of snow-white petals swirled, drifted in mid-air along with the breeze, and landed on the palm of one hand.

The young man strolling through the street lowered his head and sniffed the snow-white petals in his palm. The transparent shop window reflected his soft flaxen hair and clear and gentle eyes.

"The tenderness that has been waiting for a long time, the pain of struggling on the edge of hope and despair, the ecstasy and sweetness that is finally complete, the faith and gratitude from the heart..." Bow your head and sniff the petals, as if tasting the growth of the flower seeds until the petals fall During the whole process, the young man smiled leisurely with the emotion poured into it, "This is really a belief with super sweetness."

"——I accepted it unceremoniously."

He turned and pushed open an invisible door that didn't exist.

Pink, white, red, purple, just like the palette has been overturned, a large sea of ​​flowers decorates the whole flower shop, countless flowers are vying to bloom, welcoming the owner here.

In the deepest part of the flower shop is a counter decorated with a row of vines.There are exquisite small glass bottles scattered on the counter.

Each glass bottle on the left contains a single seed, while each glass bottle on the right contains a variety of flower petals.

The snow-white petal in his palm was put into a transparent glass bottle on the counter on the right by him, and he gently pasted a handwritten label on the glass bottle - [Lover's Prayer].

At this moment, another gust of breeze blew past the door, and a light yellow petal fluttered along the breeze. The young man who turned around from the counter stretched out his hand and caught it just in time. Live in a lightly falling snowflake.

"Is it another blessing and faith transformed from misfortune?"

The moment he took the petals, the young man raised his eyes, his eyes seemed to penetrate the barrier of space, and saw everything he wanted to see.

[Location: Yaoguo Bincheng Railway Station]

"Little grandson, little grandson, my little grandson!"

The gray-haired and crazy old man ran out at a speed that even young people could not imagine, and hugged the little girl into his arms, her cloudy eyes were filled with tears of joy: "You are back, are you really happy?" I'm back!"

Behind the close embrace of grandparents and grandchildren is a chaotic and noisy crowd. There are also two people surrounded by a group of people who were punched and kicked. Accompanied by the punches and kicks, there are also the voices of other people around: "Damn! Human traffickers It's time to fight!"

"...This old lady is really lucky, to be able to meet her abducted granddaughter by such a coincidence."

"...Abducted at such a young age, what a pity!"

Accompanying the noisy symphony was the old lady's energetic voice: "Let me just say, the flowers are blooming today, and my little grandson must come back! You still don't believe me, so you insist on bringing me to a big city." See a doctor... I'm not sick, I'm fine! My little grandson is back!"

The children scolded by her grabbed the traffickers while smiling with the old mother, and nodded repeatedly: "Hey! We are all confused, don't we think you have been cheated, old man?"

The old lady became angry again when she heard that: "...that is a real fairy, how could he lie to me, an orphan old woman! Do you think I am so stupid and easy to deceive!"

The sons and daughters nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, that is a great god who is so effective. But don't you see that we came to Bincheng just in accordance with the wishes of the great god? Otherwise, we will find yours as soon as we come. Baby granddaughter?"

As expected, the old lady was appeased, hugged her granddaughter tightly, and said triumphantly: "What do you know? This is a clever plan! The flowers bloom, and the little grandson will come back as expected!" Saying so, she held her little granddaughter in her arms. To go: "Let's go, let's go back and burn incense to the gods!"

Several sons and daughters can't laugh or cry.Not to mention that this matter has to wait for the local police station to send someone to settle it, just say burning incense?He is a big living person, whether he would like to be burned incense or not is another matter!

……

"The pain of loss, the disappointment and despair that can't be found for a long time, the madness in sobriety, the bitterness of self-deception, the ecstasy of regaining it, the gratitude from the heart, the devout belief as a god... This belief has a little bit of bitterness. It's a bit off."

As usual, after savoring the petals carrying faith, [Flower Whisperer] put them away and put them in another glass bottle.

——This is a [Family Thoughts].

Outside the window, there was another breeze blowing leisurely.Among the large sea of ​​colorful flowers, a faint fragrance followed.

It was a petal redder than blood.It exudes a rich, blood-stained fragrance.

[Location: Sangguo Jiujin Island]

The setting sun dyes half of the sky red, and the blood-like red shines on the cemetery under the setting sun. In front of a bare tombstone, there is no sacrifice, no paper money, only a large swaying blood-red flower, each petal is crimson like Blood.

The man standing in front of the tombstone was skinny, his protruding nose cast shadows on his sunken eye sockets, his eyes were downcast, and a happy smile appeared on his pale paper face.

"Didn't you ask me why I bought an empty cemetery and still planted flowers here?" The man stared at the tombstone and laughed loudly, "This is all for you! My good stepfather, you finally, finally Finally... dead!!! I've been waiting for this day since the day my mother died!"

"—a heart attack after drinking too much, it was a complete accident, even I didn't expect my wish to come true in this way." The man squatted down, his fingers lightly landed on the blood-red petals, his eyes were burning with excitement , "The taste of revenge is really wonderful!"

He thought of that magical evening, that magical flower shop, and the owner of the flower shop who seemed to have seen everything.

Mingming is gentle and merciful like a god, but he didn't persuade him to be tolerant and magnanimous, but only gave him a blessing.

——When the man who had been named his father for many years fell to the ground convulsively in front of him, he seemed to have seen a ruthless judgment from a high god.

Thinking of this, he trembled with excitement.In the deep eye sockets, his eyes emitted intense light.

He knelt down in front of the tombstone and bowed in front of the large blood-red flowers, like a devout believer prostrate at the feet of the gods.

"—Master God, please accept my trivial belief! I am willing to offer you more sacrifices!"

……

The rich fragrance swept across the tip of his nose, and the young man in the sea of ​​flowers raised his eyebrows and murmured: "The hatred that has been endured for many years, the fanaticism distorted by hatred, the extremely distorted devout belief... the smell of this belief seems too spicy. "

He sealed the blood-red petal into a glass bottle, and affixed a new label - [Curse of the Enemy].

Just after putting it away, when he turned around, his expression changed.

The young man in the sea of ​​flowers looked in a certain direction, as if sensing strong emotions from afar through the invisible thread of faith, he opened his mouth slightly involuntarily:

"Ah... what the hell are more sacrifices? Don't distort other people's meaning casually!"

"After all, I'm not some evil god!"

The breeze blew across the sea of ​​flowers, and a large number of petals flew over.The Morning Star Empire, the Alliance of the Islands... More and more beliefs and blessings gathered in various places on the Zhanlan Star.

In an apartment in an old town, a card glows continuously in mid-air, with a sea of ​​flowers blooming brilliantly on it.

The young man in the sea of ​​flowers smiled slightly, and countless beliefs supported him, making him keep rising, rising, and rising again.
