The Pathway Of Wisdom-Chapter 49: We are all Equal. Part-3.

Alex smiled and passed by Jake’s side while thinking in his head,

’Of course, you won’t make the same mistake again... if you did, you would not be left alive again little Jakey~’

After walking over to the pope’s side, Alex nodded his head at Zeil as a greeting, looked at the audience and then asked the pope,

"Shall we start the ceremony now?"

The old pope nodded his head and then led the believers to do a prayer for the god of wisdom before handing over the medallion symbolizing the status of the ’Saint’ of the God of Wisdom.

As there were quite a few people here and outside too, Alex knew that he had to take advantage of this rare chance.

He had already asked Ethan to buy loudspeakers and install them outside.

"I, the pope of the God of Wisdom Church, hereby announce that Alexander Augustus Von Kreimhild will formally be the chosen ’saint’ of the Church of Wisdom from this day forward!"

This announcement was broadcast to everyone outside and inside the church using the loudspeakers!

*CLAP!* *CLAP!* *CLAP!*

Everyone started clapping and cheering as Alex received the medallion with a smile on his face.

’Good, this moment will mark the beginning of my journey. I have finally taken control over the church and has the authority to manipulate its assets!’

’But this is only the first step; I still need to purge all people who are conspiring against me and I also need to start expanding the influence of the church from this day onwards!’

Alex took the medallion and walked over to the mic arranged with a wooden stand.

With a smile on his face, Alex started his speech.

"Good afternoon, everyone."

"I am Alexander, the fourth prince of the Kreimhild empire! But I would appreciate it if everyone remembers me as the Saint Alexander from now onwards!"

"I, Alexander, the Saint of the god of wisdom, greet you all not as a prince, but as a friend, a benefactor, and a saint who is concerned about your well-being!"

Alex took a deep breath, and his next sentence brought literal goosebumps to everyone who listened to his words.

"Children of the New Dawn! I, the blessed Oracle of the God of Wisdom, have come to bring you all a new era!"

’Children of the New Dawn’ referred to a very old myth and legend.

According to ancient myths and legends, before the beginning of this era, gods and powerful beings walked the lands.

It was a world filled with chaos and destruction everywhere.

Powerful evil monsters ravaged continents at a whim, and disasters were everywhere; it was an age of chaos and disasters.

But then came the various orthodox gods, the God of Wisdom, the Goddess of War and Combat, etc., and they pushed back all dangerous beings, finally establishing a new age for all beings in the world.

This new era came to be known as the Era of New Dawn, and as a newly emerging race that had started to rise rapidly around the beginning of this new era, mankind came to be known as the ’Children of New Dawn’!

If you don’t know a person’s hometown, if you don’t know where they are from, you can just greet them with the age-old greeting; you can just call them Child of the New Dawn!

It is a title given to all of humanity and represents them all unaffected by borders and languages, unaffected by discrimination and social classes.

All humans are ’equal’ in front of this grand ’title’ of glory and honor.

"A new era is upon us! Hundreds of new inventions and discoveries are happening each day!"

"Children are now starting to crave schools! Children now aim for equal rights to knowledge!"

"The era of all people becoming knowledgeable and equal is upon us!"

"The gods never set us apart; social classes do not hold any meaning; they only exist in our minds!"

"The gods gave us all equal status by honoring us with the title of the ’Children of New Dawn’!"

Alex’s words seemed to attract the attention of everyone from the very bottom of their hearts!

Alex’s motive was simple: he wanted more power and influence, and as the saint of the god of wisdom, his own influence will only increase if the hunger for knowledge increases in the masses!

The more people crave knowledge, the more they will see the importance of the church of wisdom! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The more people who will crave wisdom, the more people there will be who will seek the grand library of the church of wisdom for enlightenment!

"Today, the newspapers tell us about all the problems and discriminations that are happening everywhere!"

"HOW LONG WILL YOU TOLERATE IT!? WE ARE ALL CHILDREN OF THE SAME GODS!!"

"We are all born equal! Do not let this world’s illusions deceive you! Only wisdom and knowledge can bring salvation to all those who are suffering!"

"Knowledge can bring power; knowledge can bring money! Knowledge can bring health, and knowledge can bring salvation and enlightenment!"

Alex seemed small, weak, and young, but his voice carried the emotions that set fire in the hearts of all who listened to him.

His words hit everyone right in the exact spot they were meant to be!

Everyone who was inside the church of wisdom today was either a poor person or struggling against the world and hoping to survive.

But they all knew that if they had been provided the same knowledge, the same wisdom, and the same teachings as those from wealthy households or noble families, they might have never needed to struggle like this in life.

Many of the trainee knights who used to train with Jake were also present outside, and they all immediately associated Alex’s words with how Jake was born so lucky and had received so much experience and guidance from his father.

They, on the other hand, had no such luxury written in their fate.

Alex’s words ignited the hundreds of years of old pile of gunpowder that had been piling up for generations now.

One statement rang in everyone’s head again and again.

{We are all ’Children of the New Dawn,’ and We are all Equal!!}
