Chapter 328: Chapter 327: New Home

She had Moge sit back at the bedside, "First, hold it in your hand, then say the name of the person you want to contact, and then touch your forehead like this..."

Moge’s mind hadn’t fully cleared yet. "What are you doing?"

"Just do as I say."

He could only bumble through the process, "Whose name should I say?"

"The platform unloader you mentioned... He must have told you his name, right?"

"... Ji Pei’er."

"If you become proficient, you can silently recite it in your mind. Of course... experiencing it for the first time will feel very astonishing, making it hard to concentrate, so it’s okay to say it out loud," his wife explained patiently.

Mental recitation? Conversation?

Moge didn’t quite understand what she meant, but trusting her, he imitated his wife’s actions and tapped his forehead with the believer’s seal.

"Ha... Mr. Moge, you finally contacted me!"

Suddenly, a man’s voice came through in his mind.

"Ah!"

Moge startled, nearly dropping the seal in his hand.

"Hahaha... It’s all right, that’s my voice. It’s not a hallucination, and there’s no one living inside your head," the other person laughed, "I heard you collapsed from exhaustion yesterday, so I didn’t disturb you. As for the food, we’ve already unloaded it after consulting with the Archbishop... You don’t need to worry about that, just rest well for a while."

"Uh... are you really... Mr. Ji Pei’er?" Moge glanced at his wife and hesitantly replied, "This... what’s going on here?"

"This is a miracle, Mr. Moge. A proof that the Paradise Master has taken us into The Divine Country."

Even without seeing him, Moge could hear the awe and devotion in Ji Pei’er’s voice.

"This believer’s seal allows us to converse across space, all the faithful accepted by Paradise can enjoy this grace. Moreover, the Archbishop also said that telepathic communication is merely the most basic function, and as Paradise continues to grow, its powers will become stronger and stronger."

"Alright, I won’t chat with you any further now, I’ve got work to do here. If you have any more questions about the believer’s seal, you can go to the church and ask, they have people there to guide you on how to use it."

"End of conversation."

With a click sound, Ji Pei’er’s voice disappeared as if it had never been there.

Moge’s mouth hung open, unable to close for a long time.

Divinities above!

Granted by the gods, with wondrous powers, this thing... is it not like the Divine Artifact from the legends?

Under the immense spiritual shock, all remnants of sleepiness vanished from Moge’s mind, and he finally woke up. "Is this real?"

"It’s real. On the fourth day after you left, Paradise Sect brought emergency rations to the city using an unprecedented iron giant bird." His wife took his hand, "Everyone was stunned, and they all wanted to join Paradise Sect; the church doors were jammed for days. And then... everyone heard the call of the Paradise Master."

"You heard it too?"

"Yes... I didn’t just hear it, the Paradise Master also helped me walk out of my suffering," his wife softly said, "Now I only remember that very bad things happened after I was forced to separate from you, but looking back, it’s all a blur, which must surely be the divinities’ mercy."

Yeah! Before I set out, my wife was clearly downcast, often crying secretly by herself. If it weren’t for the Paradise Master saving my life, I wouldn’t have been willing to leave her side so easily. These past few days I’ve hardly slept, just hoping to complete the commission quickly. Aside from the fact that this shipment of grain could save many people, one of the reasons I wanted to come back early was to be with her. It wasn’t until now that Moge’s fragmented memories finally connected.

"No wonder you seem different than before..." he embraced his wife with relief, "So the Paradise Master didn’t just save me, but also saved you once."

"Twice," his wife said with a smile.

After holding each other affectionately for a while, Moge suddenly thought of a question, "Since we both have the devotee seals, isn’t it possible for us to use them to communicate?"

"Of course. Want me to give you a call right now?"

"Call?"

"That’s the official term recommended by the Paradise Sect...ugh, it’s not mandatory, don’t get hung up on that." His wife picked up the jade seal, "Are you ready? My dear."

Ding ding.

Immediately a bell sound rang in Moge’s mind, and he noticed text appearing before his eyes: Message from Lai La, connect?

The moment the thought arose, the text disappeared.

’It seems you’ve received my message.’ His wife’s lips hadn’t moved, yet her voice came through directly, ’If someone else wants to talk to you, you’ll see the text prompt like before. If you don’t want to answer, just choose to cancel. The Archbishop said that this connection has to be based on mutual consent, so there’s no need to worry about being harassed intentionally.’

Moge tried to mimic her, not answering with his mouth, but with his mind.

’What if there’s a namesake?’

’The Archbishop has explained this as well, but I didn’t quite get it. It seems that the name is just a symbol; it helps you recall the memory of the person being called. The decision to connect is based on this memory, not a common name. Even a street nickname like Tabby or Pooch won’t prevent it from identifying the right person.’

"That’s incredible!" Moge couldn’t help but exclaim aloud, "Does that mean in the future when I go out on trading trips, I can also be in touch with you at any time?"

’Hmm... that might not be possible yet. According to the Paradise Sect’s propaganda, currently the devotee seal can only be used in Thistlefort and Magnificent Castle. If you go to Magnificent Castle to do business, then you can chat with me anytime,’ his wife explained.

"Is that so... that’s too bad." Moge was greatly disappointed; he had thought that from now on no matter where he went, he could always be with her, "But since the devotee seal can cross even oceans, distance shouldn’t be an insurmountable problem. It looks like as long as we keep building Paradise, one day it will cover the whole world."

’The Archbishop said the same thing... which is why I have a suggestion.’ His wife’s tone suddenly became serious.

"What’s the suggestion?"

’End the conversation.’

She put down the devotee seal, "How about we settle down in Thistlefort, make this our first home. You can still go out to do business in the future, but we’ll no longer wander."

A stationary home?

Moge’s heart skipped a beat. To say he had never considered this before was impossible... initially, he had longed to settle in Shengxia, the heart of the Kingdom. However, to buy a shop there required a lot of money, which was why he and his wife, after leaving their village, had decided to start out as itinerant traders.

They went wherever business opportunities were, selling Thistlefort’s furs to the nobles of the Royal Capital, or transporting the corals from Bloodhand Port to the northern mountains... Doing this indeed brought considerable profit, but the cost was not small, and most of the time, they could only use their wagon as a bed, eating dried meat and flatbread.

But what if they chose not the Royal Capital, but Thistlefort? The money he had saved up was enough to buy property in this border city. If it had been the past, Moge would have never considered such a remote place, but now, things were different...

The divinities had not only saved him and his wife but had also blessed this city.

"Of course," he clasped her hand in return, "We won’t wander anymore... This here is our new home."
