章 162: Short Message in Stream of Memory

A day of silence had arrived in the second week after the new year at the Sacred Mountain. It was a day where there was an hour or two when all the activities of sentient beings in the Sacred Mountain and its surrounding seemed to cease to exist.

There was no animal noise or even rustling wind. Everything was quiet because nobody wished to disturb the most respected person in Sacred Mountain to carry out her monthly sacred ritual.

The shrine priestess walked down the mountain unaccompanied by anyone. However, more than a hundred entities were secretly watching and guarding her from the distance.

*Tink-a-ling*

Ely gently shook her Kagura Verity every ten steps, leaving a gentle sound of bells in the stillness of the forest.

Her monthly sacred ritual would happen in a sealed cave in a remote location in the Sacred Mountain's foothills, the only entrance to the sacred ground.
