I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha.

Roland understood Olivia's emotions, but he knew he had to keep her in check.

"Diana, even if you or the Pope of Andorra stand up today, it will only make more people die today."

Roland said, "Besides, this old man has already listened to you today and given your followers a chance."
Compared to what the Church of Light and Shadow did during their 'preaching' in Malrod, He has been quite lenient with you today. At least He didn't treat you like you did with the heretical wizards in Bloodfortress, indiscriminately..."

Seemingly noticing Olivia's increasingly grim expression, Roland quickly changed his tune, saying, "Ahem, Diana. I don't entirely agree with His actions. What I'm trying to say is that what happened today isn't your fault."

It's not because you acquiesced to His coming that things turned out this way.

Roland sighed and said, "This is my fault. I didn't do a good enough job. I couldn't handle the people here in the past six months like I did on the riverbank."

“It’s not your fault, Roland.” Olivia sighed deeply and said, “The gods—no, the church—have brainwashed themselves too successfully. Even the gods, even when I issue divine pronouncements on behalf of Heaven, cannot change them.”

Mario is right. Unless the 'God of Doom' descends, and unless they completely give up, the Church cannot be truly changed.

After a pause, Olivia's gaze turned cold. She said, "Roland, you're right. The gods' methods are far more cruel than this. If it weren't Twilight God who had triumphed today, but rather the envoy from Heaven, the wizards of the East wouldn't have had a choice like they do today."

Essentially, this is a battle of faith, and it always has been.

Roland looked at Olivia with a strange expression and said, "Thank you, Diana. I believe that the original command given to you by the gods was definitely not to negotiate with us."

"You should thank O'Reilly."

Olivia said, "If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have gone to the riverbank, and I wouldn't have woken up."

As the two talked, the wizards in the prayer room had already drawn divine runes throughout the room. These runes were scattered in every corner of the room, and when the last section was drawn, they began to shimmer with a golden light, like a pulse following a certain pattern.

As these divine runes flickered, more divine runes gradually reappeared in the air inside the room. These automatically appearing runes were not golden, but pale blue. They flowed continuously in mid-air like a waterfall, looking quite wondrous.

The wizards examined the blue runes for a while, then told Roland that they could begin.

Based on the wizards' tests over this period, the 'interface' in this prayer room within the Old Palace of Alaye is the most complete. Therefore, entering the dreamscape of Dawn's Light from here is the safest option.

In addition, since the true form and incarnation of the Thousand-Eyed King will stay near the First Foundation for a long time to come, he can take care of Roland during this period.

The palace where the prayer room is located has been shrouded in a 'black barrier' by the wizards, and the elders of the Eastern Council of Elders take turns guarding it. Apart from the Thousand-Eyed King, Catherine, Olivia, and others, no one else is allowed to approach this area.

This will become the safest area in the entire world.

The King of a Thousand Eyes has already taught Roland how to enter the dream of the Dawn of Light.

After Roland saw the flowing blue divine runes, he realized that he had used this method many times before—visualization.

However, he had previously visualized the divine inscriptions in the Alaye Manuscript, thus visualizing his own Alaye divine image. But now, he visualized the light of dawn.

When the Thousand-Eyed King led the Twilight Wizards in their attempt to enter the dream realm of Dawn's Light, it took a long time and many mistakes occurred, dragging them into the chaotic sea of ​​the lower world, causing a number of Twilight Wizards to go mad. Finally, after the Thousand-Eyed King himself took to the field and exhausted several avatars, they finally succeeded by chance once.

Therefore, Olivia and the others were somewhat worried about how long it would take Roland to succeed.

As it turned out, their worries were completely unnecessary. The 'interface' here was perfect and would not malfunction, and even if it did, dragging people into the deep sea of ​​the subterranean world, it would have almost no effect on Roland.

For experimental purposes, Roland even deliberately tried several times, venturing into the most chaotic part of the deepest world. But no one noticed. His expression was perfectly normal; he appeared to have simply drifted off for a moment while contemplating the divine runes.

Seeing Roland stretch out his hand and disperse the blue divine runes in mid-air, everyone knew that he had already taken over a shallow portion of the Dawn's authority.

After a moment's thought, Roland said to Olivia, "The will of the Dawn Light is incomplete, and 'her' will is connected to the ocean of the lower world. Therefore, those who enter her dream may be sucked into the vortex of the ocean of the lower world."

So, Diana, while I'm gone, you must promise me one thing—no one can enter the dream of dawn's light, and no one can enter this room, including you.”

Seeing that Olivia didn't ask any further questions, but instead nodded solemnly as if she had remembered his words, Roland secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Anyone can enter, except for Olivia. Roland discovered that if anything goes wrong when entering the Dream of Dawn, one will be plunged into the ocean of the lower world.

Others might see the gods of the deep sea in the lower realm, who would go mad if their willpower was insufficient.

Olivia will see her true self, and the 'Goddess' will be fully awakened as a result.

Therefore, if you want to make Olivia suddenly go mad, this is an excellent way.
Once everything was ready, everyone left.

Although Roland repeatedly stated that he didn't have much to do this time, and it would only take three to five days at most, Olivia still set an alarm for him before parting, lest he find himself spending several weeks in meditation.

This 'alarm clock' is called 'Leona'. She comes to dance every five days, disrupting Roland's meditation.

Leona wasn't considered 'human,' so Olivia didn't break her promise to Roland. And Roland tacitly approved of this action.

Clearly, Olivia didn't think Roland would come out on time in three to five days; she estimated that Roland might stay for a month.

Brianna thought Olivia's estimate was too conservative. She felt that it might be several months before Catherine came and Catherine would personally pull Roland out of the prayer room to see the child.

A few months. That timeframe is indeed a bit outrageous.

After everyone left, the black curtain of the palace where the prayer room was located opened, and the scenery outside the window gradually froze, turning into black and white.

Roland cast aside his distracting thoughts and immersed himself in the blue divine runes. (End of Chapter)
