Northlands, in the vast ice and snow, a group of people rode on the back of the huge Magical Beast Snow Eagle, looking in the direction of South, which was the territory of the Empire.
"Archbishop, Buffett missionaries have been going to see that Marquis of Northwind for several days, and there has been no news."
"Should we look for it?"
Behind the leading woman with flaming red hair and a wavy figure and a solemn and sacred expression, someone spoke in a low voice.
Upon hearing the other party's question, the woman's eyes showed sadness.
"No need to look for it."
"Father Buffett is a devout believer of our Lord. He has returned to Kingdom of Heaven in honor to listen to the greatness of our Lord."
"Now, what we have to do is enter Empire and ask that Empire's Marquis why he wants to kill the followers of our Lord."
"He is at God-Crossing."
As soon as God-Crossing said his words, everyone behind him became angry, as if there was something sinful about South that made them feel sick.
"It shall be purified, and the light of our Lord shall burn every heresy."
"The entire Empire will turn into a sea of pure white fire under the light of our Lord."
The leader Red-haired Woman did not speak, but urged Snow Eagle to dive towards the south.
Snow Eagle has a huge skeleton. It is precisely because of this that it does not have the same powerful strength as Dragons, nor can it soar into the sky like an eagle. It can go up to the sky, but it can only glide. If it had not mastered the magic power of the wind attribute, it would be just a huge free-roaming chicken.
But it's not, it's Magical Beast, and it mastered the magic and became a very good safety mount.
Well, the Magical Beast mount can be played safely on the back of an eighty-year-old man or an eight-month-old child.
Frozen Earth Territory.
Soldiers rode horses and quickly entered the territory from Mountain Forest outside, then walked non-stop through the town, boarded Rhino Horn Mountain, and entered the castle.
"Lord Lord."
"Tell me what you found."
Ryan asked:
"Your people in Thundercloud County have discovered in recent days that servants from Marquis of Northwind have been coming to communicate with them. After several interactions, they gave them some books."
Books are valuable to civilians and slaves, so Ryan himself didn't know it at first, fearing that he, the lord, would take them away.
After saying that, the soldier had taken out several yellowed books. The paper, no, these should not be called paper, but the books made of bark. When he opened the book, he saw a the Sun.
A round star with thirteen edges and corners around it, the Sun model looks like something Ryan saw drawn by a child in another world.
But this thing does not come from children, because under the Sun, there is a line of symbols.
Ryan obviously didn't recognize those symbols, but the moment he saw the symbols, he understood that it was a line of words.
It means, the Sun - Lord of all things, creator of the world, God of Light.
This method is obviously not something that children can express casually by drawing. It can be understood clearly when they see it. This kind of thing is naturally a kind of Miracle for civilian slaves who have not received knowledge and education.
Ryan is silent. This is probably what Empire introduced to fight against the Church's theocracy, God of Light.
God of Light of the Empire is essentially Lord of Dawn of the Church, but Empire wants to use this name change to eliminate the majesty of the Church in this world for countless years.
As Light Favored One of the Empire, Deities has personally blessed people, Marquis of Northwind bears the brunt of the need to let more people know about Faith of Light.
Ryan Turning to the next few pages, this book only has five or six pages in total.
The handwriting at the back must have been copied, and there is no power to understand the meaning of the words just by looking at them.
The above description is similar to the basic teachings of the Church. It probably praises the omnipotent light and gives all things the opportunity to grow. Everyone should be grateful for the gifts God of Light brings to mortals.
Every ray of sunshine they enjoy, every flame that illuminates the dark night, is a gift from God of Light.
They should fear the light, serve the light, and dedicate everything they have to the light.
These things are very different from the Church. Ryan even suspected that they were copied from the Church.
Replace the main character, which is the word Lord of Dawn, with God of Light, and it becomes the thing of the Empire, which is evidence that Marquis of Northwind is favored by Deities.
Because the content of this book, according to those people, is what Marquis realized after Deities blessed Marquis of Northwind.
Ryan then put down the book. Although Deities really exists in this world, he is still not interested in it. Do you want him to believe in religion? It's impossible.
"So, this Marquis of Northwind came to Northwind Province just to preach?"
Ryan felt a little angry because he had regarded Northwind Province as his own.
But now, the Church regards Northwind Province as a test of the Empire.
Empire also half gave up here and turned to Northwind Province as a test field.
Why here?
Because after Winged Gorge, the other provinces of the Empire are too stable, and any changes that occur may bring disaster.
Once a disaster breaks out in those provinces, it will spread to most of the entire Empire area.
Only Northwind Province.
No matter what goes wrong here, as long as Winged Gorge's garrison still exists, Empire will have nothing to worry about.
If any problem occurs in Northwind Province, it will not be known by people in the Empire South and cause panic, because the news here will basically not appear in any province of South.
Therefore, Northwind Province is the best testing place.
Empire wanted divine power and Royal Authority to be combined in the emperor, and Marquis of Northwind was pushed out... The believer of God of Light.
The euphemistic names are, Pioneers of the Empire, Apostle of Light.
Combined, it becomes Light Pioneer.
It's just that what he opened up was not the land, but the spread of faith.
"This really touches the taboo of the Church."
Ryan narrowed his eyes slightly and found Mage Luna with the book.
"There are traces of Soul Magic on this bark paper. You may not know that Soul Magic has always been a difficult magic to practice, and I am also trapped in it."
"To be able to arrange Soul Magic on the paper in such subtle ways, it must be a Legendary Mage, and it is very powerful among Legendary."
Mage Luna's huge gem eyes showed envy and yearning. She is now trapped in Golem Puppet and cannot do many things because Soul Magic's practice is not strong enough.
Ryan blinked and said:
"I want to ask, is there anything special about this book?"
"It's nothing special. It's just ordinary tree bark made through magic... no, it should be made by Alchemist."
"Very rough."
Mage Luna didn't know much about the extraordinary path of Alchemist until he came here.
But just after she finished speaking, she saw Ryan's fiery eyes.
"You..."
"Mage Luna, your Mage Tower may be on the agenda!"
