For example, during their student days, both the Dragon King and Lord Demon King had records of achieving several Special-Class Merits.
Besides the two of them, the names of other awardees can almost all be found in the roll of Capable Virtuous Ones.
Well, Dorothy had previously heard from her mother Euphilia about winning a Special-Class Merit during Witch's Night in her student days. Even Mother Dragon, who always cared greatly for her dignity and rarely showed her emotions, could not hide her pride when mentioning this, which shows the significance of such an honor.
Latter, Dorothy specifically went to the Eye of True Sight club to borrow records from Senior Dina to check on the recent Witch's Night award winners and discovered that the latest recipient of the Special-Class Merit was a familiar name—Asa Vanni.
At that moment, the Homebody Witch felt clearly the smugness emanating from Hat Senior Sister sitting atop her head. This Merry Maker had held back from boasting when Mother Dragon mentioned it, probably just waiting for this moment to come.
Tsk tsk tsk, at that time, senior sister's pretense was so impressive, Dorothy could only express her admiration.
Back then, Homebody Witch thought that if she ever had the chance, she would go for a Special-Class Merit herself and show it off to others.
She had indeed influenced the pattern of this battlefield; after all, even the God King hadn't been able to awaken because of her, and the subsequent war might not even have a chance to start.
Hmm, if the angels also had Special-Class Merits, the Lord of Glory might just send her one.
"Miss, although that noble from those days did indeed establish a sect, our current president has yet to be found, and it seems no one among us is particularly adept in the ways of faith,"
Madeline pondered for a moment upon hearing Dorothy's suggestion, then spoke thus.
Since Denisha was also present, she refrained from directly mentioning the God King and instead used "that noble" as a euphemism, like speaking in riddles.
"Hmm, Little Fairy, competing with the angels for faith is no easy task, especially since the angels hold the 'Gospel,' which is the Destined Canon. That noble from the past had 'Revelations' that allowed her to walk the path of faith, and we have...."
Senior Mia also voiced her worries. Now that God King hadn't even awakened, naturally she wouldn't have acquired the 'Revelations,' the Mandate of Heaven Scripture belonging to the Angel Witches.
In this current, historically altered now, whether the God King can once again obtain 'Revelations' is uncertain.
Golden Princess glanced at the kind and gentle Denisha nearby, noting that this state of the God King didn't quite match the image of the near tyrannical dictator recorded in history.
The historical God King, although indeed the savior of the Witch World, was the most indifferent among the Three Kings, evident from the current decadent state of the Angel Witches.
Setting aside the still-reigning Devil King for now, the similarly retired Dragon King doesn't make frequent appearances either, but she is actually still residing in the Dragon Kingdom, living within the Dragon King Palace, and the upper echelons of the Dragon Kingdom can still contact her.
Which is unlike the God King, who almost ignores the Angel Kingdom.
Without God King's guidance, the Angel Witches would not have fallen into the decadence they are in now.
The true character of the God King can be glimpsed from the Holy Scripture of the God King Sect, 'Revelations.'
'Revelations' begins by emphasizing the God King's status as the destined savior, she who was chosen by Fate's Divine Revelation and embarked on the path of salvation as a hero.
As the first king, she was favored by Fate; anyone who opposed her was an enemy of Fate, a villain against the Heavenly Mandate, and an arrogant clown standing against the tide of the era, only to be crushed to death beneath the wheels of Fate.
Interestingly, the Lord of Glory's strength was Fate itself; she almost once commanded Fate, becoming its spokesperson, but eventually was abandoned by Fate and defeated by the God King, who was also chosen by Fate.
In essence, the entire 'Revelations' emphasizes the legitimacy of the God King, recounting her power and dignity. The message throughout the text is one and the same: follow the God King and you shall prosper, doubt her, and you will face great disasters.
Put kindly, this is called the Destined Canon; put bluntly, it's basically a brainwashing Holy Bible of personality cult, even more terrifying than the angels' 'Gospel.'
After all, the 'Gospel' simply depicts the splendor of heaven, preaching that everything true, good, and beautiful may ascend to heaven—it's just an impressive depiction of an ideal.
Whether or not personality cults are right is really a debatable matter.
Many have indeed fallen on this path, eventually consumed by their overly zealous faith.
After all, if you claim to be a god, and others believe you, but later you cannot demonstrate the Omniscience and Omnipotence corresponding to a god, then the backlash when the lies are exposed is as terrifying as the faith was fervent.
But the God King is undoubtedly one of the few successful examples; she gathered the resistance of the whole world with her strong personal charm and wrested the world's main faith from the hands of the angels.
And she truly didn't let down her followers' expectations; with immense Talent and Strength, she led this world, which was on the brink of destruction, to reach the pinnacle of the Western Universe.
