‘By the way, my name is Luca Socher; in the capital, I represent the Socher company and with the help of Avi here, I’m helping Eli spread the message and the blessings of our goddess.’ She put her fist close to her mouth.

‘Luca, don’t be too pushy; everyone has their time and we need to have patience; nobody will be forced to accept her; it is a blessing after all.’ Eli tapped her head.

‘My hair, but look, our goddess is so benevolent that there is a device that preserves food but you don’t need to accept her to use it and it is not expensive at all.’ She tore two Shafran males to the side and nodded at them.

The two came close to her carrying an iron box and put it next to her. As she opened it, a weak cold air washed the people close to her.

‘See? You don’t need to believe in her to use it, but it will make you believe. I would recommend you get a refrigerator and a magic stove so that after praying and seeing how the first one helped you so much naturally, you will be able to use the magic stove.’ She pointed at one of the two Shafran males from before.

The crowed came closer and touched the refrigerator, putting their hands inside of it. At the same time, one from before gave her a magic stove and she put it on her other side, twisting a nob, making the flames come out of it.

Seeing this, the attention was now split between the devices. Eli, looking at the commotion, noticed that there was a group that didn’t come closer. He walked to the edge of the wooden boxes, jumped to the floor and got closer to the group.

‘Hello friends, do you have any questions?' Eli gave them a small bow.

‘I saw the devices on my close friend's home but it's just too crazy for me; to me, it's more like a scam, I’m sorry.’ A Shafran male using a robe and holding the hads of another spoke.

‘I understand; that is why you can come again with no problem; don’t feel pressure to buy anything. If you pray and try to accept her in your heart, you can try turning on the light every time you come here.’ Eli smiled at him.

‘But we will take the refrigerator, which I saw at our friend’s house and is so good.’ The female holding the hand of the one with the robe spoke.

‘If it helps you, this makes me remember that from time to time Ariadne walks around the city to see how things are evolving, with no guards, just her personal maid; she enters random shops to buy food; being in her presence is something else.’ He puts his hand close to his chest.

‘No guards? And why this made you remember her?’ An old Shafran looked at Eli confused.

‘Yes, but it is not because she thinks everyone loves her, even though everyone there does love her from the bottom of their hearts, but because she herself is extremely powerful, she can break my neck using her fingers.’ Eli strocks his chin.

Those words took the group back, but they remembered that the duchess had white fur disease, but the way he and others describe her, she wasn’t struggling at all with the pain that comes with it. They looked at one another confused.

‘One of the princes of Velvent, whose name is Edmund, felt in love with our goddess and offered himself as her slave and first devoted; he created the first devices, but what cured her affliction was his love for her; now he himself has white hair because of it.’ Eli gave a small smile while looking at the group.

Some of the females that were in the back of Luca’s group heard Eli’s tale and walked to him; now, a circle was formed around him, and they had sparkly eyes and smiles on their faces.

‘Is so beautiful, so he is like her husband? I imagine that he had special treatment.’ One lady spoke from behind Eli.

‘No, she is harsher with him than anybody else; when someone makes a mistake in her presence, she just smiles and says it is fine in a sweet voice, but with Edmund, because he is the first devoted, she expects perfection from him so he receives punishment often.’ Eli turned around, looking at the new people.

They looked at one another, confused by what he said. She doesn’t know his love for her, one of them thought but before her lips could move, Eli continued to speak.

‘This is proof of his love; it doesn’t matter what she throws at him; he continues to persevere and thrive; the two even fight with swords; seeing the two fight will definitely convince you of her divinity; she is testing his faith every day because of the power he received from her.’ He nodded his head.

‘Why doesn't she treat her followers like him? Why she is good to the others even after giving them blessings; they don’t compare but are blessings none the less.’ The old shafran spoke while looking at Eli’s back.

The old chatzi took a deep breath and for a moment he thought deeply about what he just heard. As he turned around once more, he stroked his chin again.

‘When you have real faith in the goddess, you will feel that a connection is formed between you and her, which is even stronger if you are close to her; the love you feel for her, she will feel it for you. Edmund doesn’t have that; I noticed from observation and the reason I don’t know myself.’ Eli looked at the old shafran.

‘Maybe is a test for himself alone as the first devoted, a price for his powers.’ The robed Shafran male to the side spoke.

‘Prohaps… I just know that she is just; she wants the best for her followers; I felt it when I was by her side, so have faith in her; later, I will tell you more about her; go to Luca if you want the devices. Eli nodded to them as they walked out.

Luca was talking with a crowd of people but she saw that the ones talking with Eli were coming towards her. One young lady wearing a robe put her finger on the magic, and for Luca's surprise, everyone, including the young lady herself, had the fire turned on.
