After a moment of silence, everyone below bowed their heads, clasped their hands together, and began to pray.
Fisher also lowered his gaze and clasped his hands in prayer, while Valentina, being unfamiliar with the Mother Goddess, performed the gesture somewhat awkwardly.
At this moment, she was still communicating with Master Tao in her mind,
"Master Tao, why don't you want me to tell Fisher about your existence?"
"I'm wondering why you'd want to? Don't you think it's odd that only you can see him? I thought you might have encountered a ghost. Regardless of the possibilities, there's no need to reveal my existence to him. If he's fake, revealing me exposes your trump card; if he's real, then his every move will be scrutinized under chaos. Something an old monster who's lived for millennia knows could endanger your life if they don't want Fisher to know. Understand?"
