Chapter 100 A World That Is Becoming Increasingly Mysterious
Actually, this point cannot be entirely called fallacy or heresy.
This is related to the national conditions of Britain.
Because they are an island nation, they naturally have a greater appreciation for storms and sailing.
Therefore, they started with the origin of God, believing that the foundation was the "storm".
However, compared to the Roman Catholic Church and Byzantine Protestantism on the mainland, Puritanism was the weakest, confined to its small islands, and its news was kept out of reach.
The whole of Europe is rapidly being transformed by the forces from the mysterious world.
The Roman Catholic Church was granted the Reader's Potion by Hohenheim, the Orthodox Church the Singer's Potion, and the Puritans the Sailor's Potion.
With these changes, even if Rukia is slow to realize, she has already come to realize that this world is truly different from her own.
She was certain that these religious reformations did not exist in the history she had studied!
Although the course was on the history of the Seireitei, real-world history was also an elective. Even though most of it was Japanese history, religious reforms like this had to be mentioned.
This made Rukia even more melancholy.
If it were simply a matter of going back to the past, then one could say that Yhwach would kill countless Grim Reapers in the future and harbor resentment towards him.
But this isn't just a matter of time; the timeline might have changed. In that case, can this Yhwach really still be considered the Yhwach she hated?
This made Rukia even more conflicted, so in the second month after she became human, she asked Hohenheim for permission to go to war.
She is not suited for clerical work and hopes to go to war with Charlemagne.
After Hohenheim agreed, he went to discuss it with Charlemagne, who of course did not refuse.
Although Rukia is a woman, she possesses extraordinary abilities; she is actually a dragon!
Although it is still a young dragon, it is far beyond the capabilities of ordinary humans.
However, Lucia never had the opportunity to become a shaman until she made great contributions in battle and was made a noble by Charlemagne!
In fact, as early as when Charles's ancestor Charles Martel served as Mayor of the Merovingian court, he continuously expanded his vassalages and granted them land as fiefs for the needs of war.
Charles himself also distributed the lands he had won through war to his meritorious generals, while Lucia chose a relatively remote place, Corsica.
She knew that Europe would be in turmoil for a long time to come, and that she would be in a state of war all the time if she stayed on the European continent. It would be better for her to be assigned to the small island of Corsica and build her own territory in peace.
She set up totems in her fiefdom and became a shaman.
Over the years, she had visited the hostel several times and participated in several traveler meetings, where they exchanged information, which helped Rukia gain a deeper understanding of the world.
Several years passed quickly amidst these changes.
The year was 814.
The day Charlemagne, who had ruled for forty-six years, died.
With Holmenx's assistance, the territory he conquered was far larger than the original Frankish Kingdom.
But no matter how old you are, there will be a day when you have to let go.
Charlemagne is going to die.
He would not actually die, but as previously requested, he needed to fake his death to abdicate the throne.
Only a god can hold power over the mortal world forever. If he wants to be immortal, then he must abdicate the throne this year.
Although reluctant, Charlemagne has found a higher pursuit.
When Charlemagne was teaching Yhwach in Hohenheim, Charlemagne would occasionally come in to listen to his lectures, and he was very interested in the occult knowledge and potion system that Charlemagne taught.
Since his remaining life is extremely long, he can spend most of his time on this.
However, he did not rashly choose the Roman Catholic reading path, because he was different from ordinary mortals; he himself possessed extraordinary powers.
He is now considered a Grim Reaper, and even has his own Zanpakuto, Juvayus. To become a superhuman, one needs a path that aligns with one's own power.
Choosing a confrontational approach carries the risk of making oneself prone to losing control.
Hohenheim recommended the Solar Path to him, but Charlie refused, because he believed that the Solar Path was a religious force, and that taking this path would be tantamount to surrendering to the people in the East.
Hohenheim then recommended the "audience" route to him. After thinking about it, Hohenheim felt that this route was more suitable for him, so he became an audience member.
At this moment, while the entire court was still immersed in an atmosphere of grief and mourning, Charlemagne had already left the tomb he had built for himself before his death and was traveling with Hohenheim outside Aachen.
"What a pity."
The two walked along a country path, heading further north.
Charlemagne sighed softly, "Although he had a long lifespan, he failed to make good use of this time to achieve unification."
He was already one of the most powerful men in Europe, and it can be said that he spent his whole life in war. Although he founded the most prosperous Frankish Kingdom, he was never able to build an empire with a territory as vast as Rome.
"Someone will take over His Majesty's dream," Hohenheim said. "I think that with a long lifespan, His Majesty will see that day sooner or later."
"Heh, don't call me Your Majesty anymore." Charlemagne shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I've not only abdicated, but I'm also dead in everyone else's eyes. There's no Charlemagne now, just a missionary Charles."
This was his new identity after his death: a Roman Catholic missionary sent to the north. No one knew this identity except Hohenheim, not even his children.
"With Holmenx and you assisting Louis, I feel at ease."
Charlie added, "Perhaps my son's generation will be able to fulfill my long-cherished wish."
But Hornheim's words surprised Charlie somewhat. He said, "I'm leaving too."
"Huh?" Charlie was surprised, but not overly so. He quickly regained his composure and asked, "Where are you going?"
He had never considered Hohenheim a subject in the past, but after Hohenheim forged the Philosopher's Stone, he knew that the other party was no ordinary person.
He is a true angel, not of this world, and will return to heaven sooner or later.
"I came here to assist you in the reform of the church. Now the reform of the church is complete, and even the culture has been updated. My mission is complete, and it is time for me to go back."
"Let Holmonx handle the rest of the Frankish kingdom; with his assistance..."
"The Frankish Kingdom will endure forever."
