Chapter 61 - 61 61 Writing Doctrine

61: Chapter 61: Writing Doctrine 61: Chapter 61: Writing Doctrine It is impossible to create something from nothing, whether through science or magic; it all requires a certain foundation.

It’s even more so when it comes to creating holy light that would be universally accepted and recognized.

To be accepted, it must align with people’s common sense, and these attempts are based on people’s usual understanding of rules.

However, the holy light created by Violet transcended the rules.

Because it surpassed people’s understanding of attempts, it, therefore, became more complicated to explain.

What exactly is the holy light?

This concocted concept needs to have a rich spiritual core, and this core must be so strong that it will not change with the progress of civilization.

It must possess a radiance that can be filled with wisdom to prevent extinction.

Otherwise, no matter how intricate the creation, it will lose vitality due to being forgotten over time.

But how easy is it to create such an attribute?

Even after much pondering, she could only capture a few words from the void.

Those meaningless words were quickly discarded by her.

Eventually, she had to give up her thoughts and consider copying existing ideas.

Copying religious doctrines from another world and adding artistic embellishments did not contradict her principles.

It was through such methods that she managed to make progress.

First, while the holy light often manifests in the form of a certain power, bending people’s belief toward its existence transcending the rules.

This isn’t wrong, but it presents a fatal problem, only apparent when it develops to a certain extent.

It’s in this limit, Violet could even foresee it descending into chaos.

It would be a scene she dreads to witness.

When people start to ignore the rules, it signals the eve of turmoil.

Everything begins to change; everything starts to become chaotic, and people will ultimately only believe in their fists.

The power revealed by the holy light would then become an ultimate force and rule.

It wouldn’t bring order, but endless ambition and desire.

Humankind’s inner craving for power is an insatiable abyss, and it would eventually deviate from Violet’s original intent.

And this must absolutely not happen!

So, while restoring her magic and after prolonged thinking, she finally jotted down the first doctrine of the Church of Holy Light, which is also the supreme doctrine.

It marks the beginning of everything.

All rules that do not contradict its essence can be established.

Any deviation is a deviation from the guidance of the holy light.

The supreme doctrine is: “The holy light is power, power is the embodiment of order, but it cannot replace order.”

After writing this, Violet picked up the paper and read it repeatedly, reveling and celebrating as if she had found something precious,

This is the beginning of everything!

In Violet’s imagination, order is an supreme presence.

It would never shift or change due to human will.

If one opposes order, they will inevitably lose their purpose in the world and get eliminated in the end.

So, perhaps in the future, such a scene would occur; where the undead bathe under the holy light, loudly declaring themselves as embodiments of order, walking among mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, a delightful scene indeed.

And Violet believes that no one has the power to prevent that from happening.

Based on that, like deriving a formula, Violet promptly wrote a full page of content.

But the content wasn’t entirely her creation.

Mixing not much wisdom, with thousands of words, Violet determined the meaning of the holy light.

And, with each use and exhaustion of magic, she gradually found a suitable proportion that was guaranteed in both quantity and quality.

Perhaps in a state of immersion in the joy of scholarly writing, holed up in the Black Crow Castle and forgetting what time it was, sparkled Violet’s curiosity.

Her disappearance gradually aroused the curiosity of the people and mercenaries.

Even Violet’s newly recruited men started to ignore the warnings and attempted to inspect the place.

But when they approached the tightly shut door, they felt an icy deathly chill emanating from within.

It’s the breath of death, and not many people are willing to throw their lives away for nothing.

The horrible magic waves leak out scared them away, retreating to their posts on the city walls, never speaking of it again.

Only one person was indifferent to this, the female mage Rolin.

Violet had long forgotten her existence.

This mage was temporarily hired by the Bronze Shield to assist in capturing Black Crow Castle.

During the fight against the Alchemist Veck, she passed out after casting her spell due to a magical backlash.

Being a temporary hire, accidentally witnessing the change of the Bronze Shield’s leader didn’t impact her much.

Just as she was about to pack and leave thinking her wage was hopeless, a powerful wave of magical fluctuation swept across Black Crow Castle.

Having never seen such an intimidating power, she was taken aback, because such a level of magic is definitely not to be achieved by wild mages.

Although the servants felt it too, for them, this magical fluctuation was like a gust of wind, soon forgotten once it passed.

The only one who remembered it and deeply ingrained it into their heart was Rolin.

She knew clearly that a wild mage would never have a chance to advance, if they don’t have the opportunity to join the Mage Council.

She was well aware of her limits, in terms of both talent and muggle potential.

If she intended to forcefully cross over with brute force, then there could be only one possible outcome, being crushed into a pulp by magical backlash.

She didn’t want to die.

Even if she had to live a cursed life according to ordinary people, she would also struggle to survive.

Violet’s uncontrolled magic experiment clearly stirred the greed of this young girl.

She dropped her luggage and, after eliminating the original members of the Bronze Shield, concluded that either one of two could be the source, either Violet with the magic mace or Kars in a ranger’s outfit.

Knowing who exuded that terrifying magical fluctuation, there was no need for discussion.
