Chapter 29: The Initiation Ceremony Under the Cedar Tree

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Li Yu originally thought that his first disciple would be Clara.

After all, the little maid who was keen on fishing looked very similar to Saturday. In order to ensure her two days of vacation, she eventually converted to Saturday, which was also expected by Li Yu.

But what Li Yu didn't expect was that someone actually beat her to it.

Li Yu looked at Nicole in front of him, "You said you wanted to know more about things related to Saturday?"

Nicole nodded without any hesitation, "I want to believe in it too."

"Why?" Li Yu asked, "You don't seem to have that strong interest in holidays and entertainment."

Of course he had a reason for saying that.

When Li Yu taught Arabic numerals and simple operations, Nicole was the hardest among the four to learn. However, when Li Yu came over the next day to check the learning progress of the four, Nicole's performance was often the best.

This shows that the girl works hard in private.

Although she was introduced by the boss, Fausto, her family background is not much different from the other three, or even slightly worse.

Her biological father died very early, and then her mother remarried another man. Unfortunately, that man was a lazy man, doing nothing all day long and not farming well.

In order for the family to survive, her mother had to ask for help from Fausto, who found her a job as a laundromat in the castle. Nicole also had to go out to work early and help a family in the village.

The money I earned was just enough to fill my stomach.

So while others were helping their parents with farm work, Nicole definitely couldn't study with peace of mind.

In other words, she used her rest time to catch up and even surpass others.

This attitude cannot be said to have nothing to do with Saturday, it can only be said to be incompatible with it.

But Li Yu did not reject Nicole.

No one dislikes hard-working people. Li Yu chose Saturday as a god to spread his faith so that people here would never forget that development is for better enjoyment of life, rather than being completely destroyed like in the universe he lives in.

Kidnapped by efficiency.

After all, Li Yu is not opposed to hard work. No matter how advanced the technology is, it is useless if no one works, but the premise is that reasonable rest time must be guaranteed.

Nicole's eyes flashed. She had actually thought about the answer to this question before she came. She said that she was shocked by the various magical methods used by Li Yu, and thus developed a feeling of admiration and awe for that Saturday.

This sounds reasonable.

However, when she stood in front of Li Yu and was stared at by those deep and calm eyes, she could no longer say those words she had prepared in advance.

In the end, Nicole chose to tell the truth, "I want to live a better life."

Li Yu next plans to explore technology and provide a wave of benefits to his followers, but that will happen in the future.

At the moment, he is not doing anything. He is just wandering around with his four children and a little maid, recording various animals and plants in the green fields. The technologies from modern civilization are still lying quietly on his head or laptop.

in a word document.

So what Nicole obviously doesn't mean by a better life is these.

Li Yu saw something called ambition burning brightly in this thin and frail body.

But he didn't say anything, he just said, "After becoming a Saturday believer, you need to strictly abide by the precepts. You must work for five days and have two days of rest."

"I understand." Nicole said without hesitation.

"I know you always have a sense of urgency in your heart, but leisure does not mean wasting your life. You can use this time to think and observe the world, cultivate your hobbies, and explore your own soul. Of course, you can also do nothing.

Simply relax."

"In short, no matter what you want to do or what kind of person you want to be, you can better achieve your goals only if you restore your spirit."

Nicole blinked, but she didn't quite understand, "Can I decide what kind of person I will be? But...but doesn't my Lord have any plans for me on Saturday?"

"No. In other words, every choice you make is its arrangement, so just choose the path you want to take, because no matter which path you choose, it will eventually be the path it wants you to take, and you will get everything.

Its favor.”

Li Yu's words sounded meaningful, and Nicole seemed to understand.

Then she heard Li Yu say again, "Come with me."

The two walked into the misty woods one after another. Li Yu chose a fir tree that looked particularly tall and strong and must have been thousands of years old. Just like the last time he helped Miss Rabbit and Jude make an oath.

Same.

Use a knife to carve out the beach, palm trees, deck chairs and parasols on the tree trunk.

Then he asked Nicole to kneel down on one knee, took out her mobile phone, and selected the symphony version of "What a Beautiful Jasmine" that she had already downloaded in the local music library.

As the familiar melody sounded, Nicole's body shook violently. The little girl raised her head and looked around blankly, but did not see any performers.

This piece of music seemed to be coming from the void.

It had a beautiful melody that she had never heard before, delicate and graceful, yet magnificent.

Nicole didn't understand music, but she couldn't help but immerse herself in it. She was infected by those beating notes, as if she could smell the fragrance of flowers floating in the air, and the corners of her mouth curled up involuntarily.

She still couldn't come back to her senses until the music ended.

Li Yu reached for her left hand and put a green silicone bracelet bought on 1688 on it.

Then he said to the girl, "Hera."

"What?" Nicole was stunned for a moment, finally freed from the shock of the natural sound, and then said in a panic, "What did you just say? I...I couldn't hear clearly."

"Hera," Li Yu repeated these two words again, "this is your Christian name. You can put this Christian name before your real name."

"Hera." Nicole also chanted, "Hera Nicole, from now on I will be Hera Nicole, a Saturday believer." The girl's voice was excited.

Nicole's father died early, her stepfather was a slacker, and her mother worked hard to make money every day from dawn to dusk, and had no time or energy to take care of her daughter. This led to Nicole's lack of love from her parents since she was a child.

She also didn't have much sense of belonging to that family, until she converted to Saturday, which actually gave her a touch of warmth that she had never experienced before.

In the vast world, she finally no longer walked alone, she had someone to rely on, and when she looked at Li Yu, she felt a faint kindness, and she was no longer as mysterious and unpredictable as before.

So the girl became bolder and blurted out, "Master Prophet, can I hold you?"

This time, it was Li Yu's turn to be caught off guard. He was also surprised for a rare moment. After a while, he said, "Okay..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Hera had already rushed over and hugged his thigh.

Li Yu instinctively wanted to hide, but finally held back. After a moment, he reached out and touched Hera's somewhat disheveled hair.
