571: Chapter 244: Try and Die 571: Chapter 244: Try and Die “The Great Prophet serves as a Proxy, and while a Proxy’s Divine Power is indeed powerful, they cannot directly convey Divine Decrees.
Therefore, the Great Prophet must possess the ability to communicate with nature in order to sense the distant Proxies in the Divine Nation…”
Saina described the significance of the Great Prophet within The Church, the Great Prophet is the servant of the gods, one of the three Proxies, Skylark Milaer possesses the divine power to foresee the future, making the Great Prophet’s position pivotal.
Yet because the Great Prophet is rely a servant of the gods, their status can be high or low.
When needed, the all-knowing Great Prophet can guide the future of The Church; when not needed, the Great Prophet is just a senile old man muttering about the gods.
Though a servant of the gods is still a god and is worshipped by the believers, Saina didn’t want to speak too bluntly, to maintain the dignity of the lesser gods, hinting just enough for Wayne to get the ssage.
For the lower-ranking believers, becoming the Great Prophet, being able to contact the lesser gods, is akin to ascending to heaven in one step.
For the higher-ups, respecting the lesser gods is because of their devotion to the Goddess; the Goddess ca first followed by the lesser gods, this is a matter of principle that cannot be taken lightly.
With Wayne’s talent, there’s no need to waste ti on the lesser gods; he deserves a higher and better position.
For example, a God-chosen Knight!
Wayne thought to himself, actually being a lesser god is pretty good, Skylark, foreseeing the future, this ability seems quite cool.
If he were to master this ability, no, to beco the Great Prophet who in the eyes of others conveys the future Divine Decrees, wouldn’t he just fabricate them however he liked?
Hey you, yeah you, stop looking, I have a Divine Decree related to you here, co to my room tonight and we can talk about it at length.
“There aren’t many who can communicate with nature; the Great Prophet Tubie spent nearly a hundred years to train just two students, they are different from you, their talent built upon resources, and not inherently flawless…”
“Precisely for this reason, Tubie can only hold onto his position as Great Prophet, unable to leave the mortal realm for the Divine Nation, his abilities have beco the shackles preventing him from advancing further, he yearns for a worthy student more than anyone else.”
“If you beco the Great Prophet, Tubie is what your future holds, bound for life, sitting idly in the Prophet Hall every day, eventually becoming mad…”
The position of Great Prophet wasn’t as bad as Saina made it out to be, but to quash Wayne’s fantasies, she deliberately highlighted the shortcomings of the Great Prophet’s role, tarnishing it beyond recognition.
Then, shifting her tone, Saina said: “I’m not sure how Hefei has been training you, perhaps because he fears your pride in your talents, so he has repeatedly tried to crush your confidence.
I can tell you very clearly, Wayne, you are a genius, you can surely serve as the Goddess’s Knight, which is the true honor worthy of you.”
Saina rambled on about the greatness of the God-chosen Knights without exaggeration, every word true.
She herself held the God-chosen Knights in very high regard.
If not for her lack of talent, she would have wished to beco a Naturalist Knight herself.
To be a Naturalist Knight, who would covet the position of Pope?
The choice really isn’t difficult.
“Wayne, I’m not exaggerating, your talent is exceptional.
Don’t be tempted by Tubie; he has ill intentions and only wants to use you.
No matter what he says, don’t agree to it lightly,” Saina said earnestly, and then she ntioned the Pope, sharing with Wayne a part of her career in The Church where she was constantly oppressed.
In simple terms, the Pope was power-hungry, suppressed dissenters, and because of Saina’s outstanding performance, she beca a thorn in his side, suffering unfair treatnt ti and again.
As Wayne and Saina had a ntor-student relationship, they too were seen as enemies by the Pope.
Currently, the Pope has reached an agreent with the Great Prophet to push Wayne into the Prophet Hall to be confined.
The kind of confinent without a set term.
Wayne combed through the plot, which was overwhelmingly ssy.
He couldn’t find a single good person in the story.
Wait, apart from himself, he couldn’t find a single good person.
When did The Church beco like this!
The Church has beco like this, yet the Dark Death Alliance hasn’t won; what is this, the God-chosen Continent’s excellent matchmaking chanism?
Wayne, full of grievances, had little interest in the position under the Great Prophet’s buttocks after listening to Saina’s narration.
Nothing else; the Great Prophet has no holidays, on duty 365 days a year, unable to leave the Church headquarters.
That’s just boring.
Indeed, the Great Prophet is only imprisoned indefinitely, not celibately.
As long as he doesn’t leave the Prophet Hall, he can do whatever he wants; not even the Pope can interfere.
If Wayne beca the Great Prophet, he could totally bring Veronica in.
But what about Philona, Chris, Vili, Mona, and all these Heretics?
That was his territory, which he had worked hard to build.
“Wayne, say sothing!”
“The world is so big, I want to go see it.”
“What?”
“The ability to foresee the future is tempting, but the constraints of being the Great Prophet are too many; it doesn’t suit my heart that yearns for freedom,” Wayne stated succinctly; he wanted to return to Lundan for a soak, the scenery there was better.
Saina was overjoyed and encouraged Wayne a few more words, then said, “God-chosen Knights don’t have such constraints; Naturalist Knight Mula rarely stays at the headquarters; he goes wherever he wants.
Except for the Goddess, no one can command him.”
Saina and Vice Commander Gavin had said sothing similar; forget being the Great Prophet, a real man ought to be a Knight.
“Teacher Saina, can I really beco a Naturalist Knight?”
“Of course, Vice Commander Gavin of the Naturalist Knights Order thinks very highly of you.”
“That’s debatable…”
Wayne expressed his skepticism, not doubting his own talent.
Two practical tests had proven that if he wanted to be God-chosen, he didn’t need the Goddess’s nod, just a touch was enough.
