Chapter 112: The Sacrament of the Sun

Claude stood on top of the tallest bell tower in Luther Town, the sword staff in his right hand already open, and he gently rested his hands on the top of the staff as if he were holding a sword.

Let irrelevant people ignore their own enchantment, and quietly open with him as the center. Although the use of divine magic in the territory of Karar is extremely costly, it is probably not a problem if it is only maintained until the end of the ceremony.

After all, it's just a matter of ignoring the enchantment, and although he's old, it's probably not enough to open the Divine Envoy Incarnation.

Claude squinted at the rising sun in the distance, with his sword and staff in front of him.

Rarely, he was dressed in a white floor-length robe and a bronze shoulder robe studded with metal chains.

Two sword-like brown leather straps slipped through the slits of the shoulder garment and wrapped around the back of the neck like a scarf around Claude's neck.

The stiff leather straps didn't go around the front of his neck, but two copper-colored metal ties stuck in front of his chest, blocking his Adam's apple completely.

This is the most solemn dress of the bishop of Sivir.

Needless to say, he wore it only on the first day of every month, and after the big week he came to the Pope with the other bishops.

And shoulder straps are not everyday clothing. The two sword-shaped straps are made of the finest hard leather, unlike the fleece straps of Priest Tyre. It also has a different meaning than Pastor Tyre's shoulder straps.

As Sivir said, as apologists, they must "keep their sword on their side." Therefore, when they could not wear ceremonial swords, they had to wear shoulder straps in place of swords.

And the white floor-length robe was not Pastor Sivir's style. Generally speaking, they are accustomed to wearing short clothes on their upper bodies. Under. Dressed in tight trousers. This allows them to react immediately to any crisis.

This pure white silk creates a strong reflection in the sun's rays, and the length can completely cover the top of the foot. It's all the style that the god of Tyre likes.

"You will be proud of the sun."

"This light I gave you equally, and you will give equal the light to the people."

Claude whispered the words of the Father Tyre: "You are the people of the sun. and with humility without burning. Be like me, so that no evil will come to you—I will not show your hands and feet, and you shall not show your hands or feet. I will not show my shoulders, and you shall not show your shoulders; I will not show my neck, and you shall not show your neck. ”

"To Sivir and to Tyre the Father—"

After a simple prayer, Claude slowly raised his sword and danced in a complex and rhythmic manner, like writing something in the air, and like a sword dance praying for victory.

He was waiting for time to pass.

In another five minutes, when the sun rises in the middle of the day. His prayer began.

Today is an extremely important day for Claude. He had already told Marken and Claudia two days ago not to bother himself today.

13/5 – This is the day when Theyr, the father crowned by Sivir, becomes a god. On this day, all priests of Tyre and the faithful above Bishop Sivir are to pray facing the sun in the most solemn clothes.

Unlike the priests of Tyre, the priests of Sivir could not offer sacrifices on this day, and the worship could only take place after the sun had risen, until then they could only gaze directly at the sunrise in reverence and silence, praying silently in their hearts.

This is a distinction between the high and the low, and there is a distinction between priority and priority—just as the sun rises and sets at the same time every day, the god Tyre is a god who pays great attention to discipline and etiquette.

His teachings strongly defended the position of ruler. Maintain the power of the nobility. Just as the sun has shone on the earth since time immemorial, from

Nothing is higher than the sun, and nothing is older than the sun.

The pastors of Tyre believed that power was born. Nobility is determined at the moment of birth. The reason for the acquired power is nothing more than stealing or giving two possibilities.

Following this teaching, Tyre's realm was initially limited to two types: the Sun and the Righteousness. But in the more than 100 years of growth, he has touched his power to [aristocracy], [tradition], [law], [ritual], [stability] and so on.

At the annual meeting at the end of this year. One of Sivir's cardinals said: "There is a spirit of knowledge, and the heritage of history is sacred. It must be under the watchful eye of the gods of Tyre—"

What he meant was nothing more than that knowledge and lineage should also belong to the realm of the gods of Tyre.

This view was hugely divisive at the annual meeting.

In general, the point of disagreement is not on whether this statement is true or not, but on whether knowledge is related to war.

Some bishops believe that wisdom is not in conflict with war. From the realm of strategy and warfare, it can be extended to the fields of controlled warfare, the protection and promotion of inheritance, the invasion and integration of culture, and so on, which involve knowledge and inheritance, and are also of great benefit to Sivir's crown, and should not be directly given to Tyre.

Other bishops believe that unbridled wisdom is the root of evil. From the realm of justice, it can be directly extended to the correction of the lineage and the development of a good culture. Besides, Sivir and Tyre are really one and the same, and they really shouldn't take the difference between you and me so seriously.

This controversy immediately exposed the internal contradictions of the Hevir sect. On top of that, until the end, they weren't sure who was right.

But their pope leaned towards the first opinion, while Claude leaned towards the second. Although Claude didn't say anything on the spot, he was actually a little unhappy in his heart.

In his opinion, if the Church of the Goddess of War were to seize the realm of knowledge and inheritance, they would do nothing more than to take it from the alchemists of Suze to the north or the White Tower to the southeast.

Either way, with the severity of their attack on the blood-soaked madness, it will have a very bad effect on the local population.

Claude has lived for a long, long time, and he has long looked down on it.

In his opinion, the new pope is too young, only in his early forties, his heart has not yet calmed down, and his behavior is frizzy.

With the prestige of the gods of Tyre, no matter where they go to discuss the spread of the god realm, it is definitely much more efficient than if they directly hit the head.

Because of the stability of Tyre's teachings, although Tyre is not the state religion of any country, he is respected in most countries - what ruler likes mobs?

It is precisely because of this relationship between Sivir and Tyre that Bansa, who is always waging war, has not been jointly exterminated by the surrounding countries. For example, in the far north, where sunlight is scarce, they believe that the yield of crops depends more on the amount of sunlight than on the fertility of the land. As a result, many of the low-level Suze people do not believe in the goddess of harvest but in Tyre, the god of the sun and justice.

And Tyre naturally didn't want his daughter to be beaten, so he naturally mediated everywhere, and even sent the saint to lobby.

It is precisely because of Tyre's protection and help that Sivir was able to take out all the other war-related gods and enjoy the war realm exclusively. And only she dared to let Bansa find other countries to start a war, but other countries had to consider the risk of attacking Bansa.

Even if Bansa's regular army were to be withdrawn, the Templar forces of Tyre and Sivir would be enough to protect the country from war.

After all, even the seven gods of Titan had only formed a loose alliance, and their faces and hearts were not in harmony.

What's more, none of the seven gods had a powerful divine power. Even if Tyre doesn't make a move, Sivir alone can fight without much effort.

Suddenly, a melodious bell rang from Claude's feet, twelve times in a row.

The time has come.

"If I see the sun shining in heaven, my heart will rejoice—"

With his sword in both hands, he tore through the air with a waving sound, held it high and pointed to the sun, and sang a prayer loudly.

Before he could sing the second prayer, he saw Roland and Cruvine follow Claudia towards him from the corner of the street.

He couldn't help but feel relieved.

Fortunately, little Roland is really fine......

But then, his heart was filled with apprehension.

In this sacred ritual, he cannot speak and move at will, otherwise it will be a great transgression.

Don't disturb my ceremony......

Claude thought silently. (To be continued......)
