Magic's Return: I Can See The Spirits
chapter-257

"The God of Magic." Elara answered as her red eyes shined intensely.

"What…?" Selene, on the other hand, stared at the woman in front of her with a dumbfounded look on her face.

"Think about it, it has been 5000 years since anyone has tried praying to the God; what if… what if the God of Magic hasn't abandoned us and it is us who lost faith in him?" Elara questioned, and Selene, who continued to stare at the red-haired woman, couldn't help but smile wryly, "I find it hard to believe that these words are coming from the mouth of a future member of the Vesta Family.

Are you trying to say that the sacrifices the brave mages and the members of the Vesta Family made in the past are all false? Are you completely denying the history we have been following for the past 5000 years?" Selene asked a bunch of questions; she didn't like how Elara was questioning the past, even though she wasn't a member of the Vesta Family, her actions were no different than defaming the past heroes. Heroes whom even Selene, a member of the Church of Light, respected.

Elara, however, didn't stop.

"I am not denying anything; maybe the God of Magic did stop blessing its believers for a while.

What if… at that time, the God of Magic had a reason to not be able to bless its believers but now, he has resolved those issues but has already lost all his believers?" She suggested a completely different theory.

"Is it not foolish to try and connect to the God who took care of us Mages for countless years one more time?" Elara questioned, and this time, Selene found herself being put on a spot.

Elara's words made sense; there were countless possibilities and honestly, even till now, no one could ever find the reason as to why the God of Magic abandoned the Mages in the first place. There was no grave sin committed; the Mages didn't go against any of his wishes, and as a thriving group, the God of magic had no reason to abandon his people.

So maybe… Elara was right.

"I am trying to use the prayers the believers used in the Past; however, I cannot feel anything different.

Which is quite different from what I hear from believers of other Gods." Elara pointed out her problem.

"Does this not give you the answer you were looking for? Maybe the God of Magic did indeed abandon his believers." Selene spoke, however, "Are you saying that right now, if I chant the prayers the believers of the God of Light use, I can feel his blessing?" Elara questioned, and in an instant, Selene turned silent and understood what the girl meant.

"So how do you want me to help you?"

"I just want to know how you turn a normal person into a believer. How do you generate their Faith in the God of Light?"
