Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage
Chapter 411 Priesthood (3)
According to the oracle, the headquarters of the Goddess of Life Church will be built next to Stewart City, which is equivalent to the size of a new city. Not only that, Stewart had land, construction workers, and money, so temples to the Goddess of Life could be started in the entire town at once.
When the scholars in charge of the construction work received the drawings, they found that Dominaria City, Labia Town, Zendikar Town, Kaderash Town and other towns in the Stewart Territory and Carona Territory were the best. The plot of land is either woods or green space, or it has been vacant. Now it can be used directly to build a temple.
What shocked them even more was that there was only one temple built in all the towns in the Loire County of the French Kingdom, parts of the Brittany County, and Carona County of the Iberian Kingdom that had been ravaged by demons. The minimum standard to regain the land from the devil was met. And now, these places are planning to build temples to the great goddess of life.
Is this the wisdom of true God?
.
Stewart City, Castle, Hall.
Before the church headquarters was built, it served as the temporary office of the Goddess of Life Church. Elena, wearing gorgeous papal robes, was listening to a report. She has the professional level of a sixth-level mage, so she is fully qualified for the work of the Pope.
After statistics, Bishop Phyllis Coleman has compiled a list of people who are willing to convert:
"His Majesty the Pope, all legal professions in the territory, except for thirteen such as Master Ramos, Master Bennington, Master Nazan, and Ronny Druid, are willing to change their faith to our Lord."
The above people joined the territory halfway, and it is expected that they maintain their original beliefs. As for other legal professions, they were all trained by the Territory Mage Tower. Many of them had their entire families saved by Stuart. Besides, the idea of loyalty to the lord was instilled in them during daily teaching.
Bishop Phyllis Coleman continued: "All the knights in the territory are willing to convert to our Lord."
This is something unexpected and reasonable. It was unexpected because there were more than a dozen knights who swore allegiance later, and they believed in a variety of gods. It makes sense that his lord has now become a god, and all future dukes will inevitably believe in the goddess of life. These knights have been serving under others for generations. If they do not change their beliefs, life will never be easy in the future.
"Not many nobles and officials in the territory have converted. Those who are willing to believe in our Lord are those we trained ourselves and the old people from the previous territory. There are very few who joined later."
This situation is very normal. There is no reason why everyone will convert as soon as a new god appears. Especially for nobles, their families have been followers of a certain true god for generations and are very devout. Even if the lord becomes a god, he will not change his faith easily. However, they will encourage their second-born children who do not have inheritance rights to believe in the new gods, which can be regarded as diversification of investment.
The new nobles promoted by Christine, such as Harland Coy, the head of the Tulip Chamber of Commerce, and Jerome Townsend, the naval commander, must believe in the new gods.
Although the noble families such as Pierre Legrand and Etienne Messier can be considered semi-independent, their families have always been vassals of the Stewart family, so naturally they have to change their beliefs.
Elena said with satisfaction: "At tomorrow's prayer ceremony for believers, a collective conversion ceremony will be held for them."
"As you wish."
The conversion and believer's prayer ceremony was held in the square of Stewart Castle, involving hundreds of people including nobles, officials, legal professionals, knights, second-born children of nobles, servants, adopted orphans, etc. The ceremony was massive and effective.
The news about Karona (Christine) becoming a god has spread throughout the continent in the past few days, causing an uproar.
Since the various gods such as humans, elves, orcs, and dwarves became stable, the faith areas on the mainland have also been basically stable, and new gods are rarely born, let alone the transformation from a mortal to a god in such a short period of time.
Now someone suddenly appeared, with such a legendary experience, which immediately raised Karona's popularity to another level, and the force quickly gathered towards her.
The people who reacted the most to this matter were the people led by Stewart. You must know that since the expansion of the territory, most of the people in the territory are either refugees or slaves who were released after meeting the standards. It can be said that the livelihood of these people was given by Karona (Christine).
Moreover, various words of praise about the lord have been circulating within the territory. The people of Stewart Territory are indeed much better off than other territories. They indeed suffered the least suffering during the magic disaster. Is there any problem in being grateful to the lord?
Now that their lord has become a god, some people have spontaneously changed their beliefs. These people have received great favors from the territory, and many of them are refugees who were rescued by (Carona) Christine and her people.
In less than a month, the church of Karona, the Goddess of Life, was completely on track. Not only did it have thousands of believers, but there were also dozens of devout believers. This is no worse than some old True God churches with weak divine power, and some of them took hundreds or even thousands of years to reach such a scale.
If that were all, it would be too underestimated of Carona (Christine)’s advance layout.
According to the "Covenant of the Gods", the territory directly under the Church of the True God can only be the size of a barony at most, and no country that combines politics and religion is allowed to appear. This is because if the church of a powerful god controls the country, it will crowd out other believers of the true god, which is extremely detrimental to the development of the true god who does not control the country. However, the royal family is its own sacred bloodline and has already received the biggest share of the cake. In addition, other gods grouped together to oppose it, so these true gods who have the name of the country agreed.
Now that Karona has become a god, the Stuart Territory is still a duchy even though its area has exceeded that of most principalities. In the past, it seemed that they had suffered a loss by still respecting the royal family of the Kingdom of France without the founding of the country, but in fact they avoided the "Covenant of the Gods" and the "Convention of the Continent".
The convention only said that theocratic kingdoms and principalities were not allowed, but it did not say that such noble territories were not allowed. That's why there were places like the Dragon God Faith Area of Count Heinz Wilhelm of the Kingdom of the Rhine and the Kingdom of Iberia. The half-elf faith area of the Viscounty of Cantabria.
Again, there has never been a real duke other than a member of the royal family on the mainland, because at that time all the land had been divided up by various countries. Besides, even if nobles were at war with each other, the victorious party would not be able to force the civilians in the newly occupied villages and towns to convert, so there were no relevant restrictions in the convention.
However, Leader Stewart's next behavior made everyone sigh: "It turns out that we can still play like this."
