Chapter Seventy-Four: The Contest Begins
It's dawn
The sun slowly rose, and Liam stopped talking, he looked out the window and said, "The knight's jousting tournament has begun now. ”
William looked out the window, which shimmered brighter than any morning dawn he had ever seen.
"Your Highness Liam, I still have one more question that I don't understand, doesn't the fifth order represent a demigod? Why are the gods of the past also fifth-order? ”
William had the impression that gods such as Zeus and Odin should be beings of the sixth order or above.
The god-king is the fifth order, the main god is the fifth order, and even the gods in general are included in the fifth order.
"Because the hierarchy of the tree of life is compiled by Christians, symbolizing the embodiment of God's rules in this world, there is no place for the Greek, Norse, and Celtic gods, and for the high-level of the Christian church, there is not much difference between the gods and gods of the god king, the main god, so they are all fifth-order." Liam explained.
"Why?" William asked.
"There is no reason, the hierarchy chart is like this, and the highest level set by the priests is only the fifth order."
"Why?"
Seeing William, who was still asking why, Liam took a deep breath and made an analogy in words that William could understand, he said, "You know, in the legend of King Arthur, there are many kings in Britain, including the kings of England, Scotland, Wales or other countries, but kings are different from kings, other kings of Britain are under the control of King Arthur and obey Arthur, and the same is true of Ireland, Ireland has many kings, but there is only one king, Able to temper other kings of Ireland. ”
"What's going on?" William was puzzled.
"What should the king of kings be called?" Liam asked rhetorically with a chuckle.
"King of kings or Augustus (Emperor)!"
William replied that King Arthur was honored as the Emperor of Britain at his peak, and the King of Kings was a title equal to or higher than the emperor, the Greeks called Zeus the King of Kings, and the Christians used it to call Jesus Christ, and during the Trojan War, Agamemnon, the commander of the Greek kingdoms, King Agamemnon of Mycenae, also briefly obtained this title.
In this world, the title is actually a kind of person, if the virtue is not worthy of the position, and if you use it arbitrarily, you will be counterattacked, Agamemnon led the Greek coalition to destroy the Trojan kingdom, won the battle and returned to Greece, and he was overthrown and killed.
The most obvious title is the title of trespassing the gods, which is a great offense.
A person can be like a god, but he cannot be a god, especially to recognize his own identity and not be disrespectful to the gods.
During the Trojan War, Ajax the Great was the second hero of the Greeks after Achilles, but after his victory, he actually broke into Athena's temple, grabbed her priestess Kassandra by the hair and dragged her out.
But when Ajax the Great encountered a storm, he hugged the reef and boasted, "Even if the gods of the sacred mountain of Olympus are united, he will save himself." ”
Poseidon was furious when he heard this, and when he saw the Great Ajax, who had lost the favor of fate after the end of the Trojan War, he directly lifted the mountain rock and stoned him to death.
Barons, viscounts, counts, marquises, dukes, kings, and emperors, each of which has a different level of substantive power and spirituality.
Therefore, not only should the title not be used indiscriminately, but even nonsense should not be spoken.
"For Ireland, there is no need for such a lofty title, the Supreme King is enough."
Liam said with some embarrassment, and then asked William rhetorically, "What do you think would happen to the kings under him if the king who rules over the kings does not want to call himself the supreme king, nor does he want to call himself the king of kings or emperors, but only the ordinary king?" ”
"Go to the king!" William blurted out, finally understanding what Liam meant.
If the supreme ruler calls himself a king, then the kings below will not consider themselves to be equal to him, but will consider themselves to be vassals of the king, from kings to dukes and marquises.
"A baron can be promoted to an earl by opening up his territory, and a duke can become a king. The Christian Tree of Life hierarchy chart uses God as a template, with God as the only god, not the supreme god, the god above, so all the ancient gods have become demigods, no matter how many they were originally in the past, and now according to the new standard, maybe the fourth order, maybe the fifth order, in short, it is impossible to surpass the fifth order. ”
William understood that when God came into the world, the new standards replaced the standards of the old gods.
In the laws established by God, only God is God, while other ancient gods can only be regarded as demigods, and the more powerful the gods, the greater the suppression.

The Romanesque Colosseum appeared out of thin air in Asgard.
As far back as BC, the capital of the Roman Empire was surrounded by seven hills, and the Colosseum was one of them.
Britain, perhaps as it was called, was first known as Britannia as one of the provinces of the Roman Empire.
When the Roman Empire went to war, the Roman legions stationed in Britannia were evacuated in response to the war, and this was the opportunity for the Celts to establish their own dynasty in this land.
The Celtic gods showed their power and even rebuilt the Colosseum of Rome, where jousting tournaments were held, which seemed to show a rare ambition that the Manifest King would rule over a country as great as Rome.
Samurai from all over the world poured in, and the high platform was occupied by ladies and spectators, and Mr. Green looked down the arena with a quill and parchment, trying to record everything that happened here.
"I am the King of Great Britain, the King of England, the King of Scotland, the King of Wales, the Protector of the Kingdom of Ireland, the Captain of the Knights of the Round Table and the Servant of God, the Saints of Rank, the Bishop of Ireland, the Patron saints of Ireland, St. Patrick, St. Bright, St. Corumba, and the First Honourable Goddess Eliou, the equally noble Goddess Fudra, and the equally noble Goddess Banwa.
The knights came from afar to hold this jousting tournament, and the king, the three patron saints of Ireland, and the three goddesses expressed their joy for this.
Whether Greeks, Romans, Lombards, Celts, Germans, French, Vikings or even Arabs, whoever successfully defends the title is the Destiny King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. ”
The fairy held a silky purple edict in her hand and read it fluently and clearly, and it was passed on to the ears of all participants.
"Now for the first game, the first to appear is the elf prince from Ireland, Liam, the former king of the Kingdom of Irene, and the second is Francis, a German from the Holy Roman Empire. This is where the first battle between the two sides will begin. ”
"The ultimate victor is the King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland."
