He couldn’t be sure at first, but now he could finally confirm it.
——He had glimpsed the true nature of the lvin family.
"So that’s how it is."
Annan took a deep breath: "The lvins, adept in the Law of Resemblance. They create the God Child, keep it detached from the mundane world, make it resemble a god; allowing the most outstanding God Child to inherit the profession of a god among n...
"In the Idol Wizards’ discipline, the ’Law of Contagion’ causes the fate of idol wizards to converge and attract each other. The weaker idol wizards will unconsciously gravitate towards the stronger ones, and their fates will be influenced by each other.
"——This is the secret about the ’Law of Contagion’ well known to wizards.
"But the Law of Resemblance is different. Because there are not many idol wizards proficient in it, and they are mainly concentrated in the lvin family, the knowledge of this law becos scarce.
"However, by chance, I have read the book ’Law of Resemblance and Precognitive Dreams.’ It ntions that two idol wizards who are sufficiently similar can have their fates connected as well.
"These so-called precognitive dreams occur because they are too similar, to the extent that their dreams can interconnect. One person’s experiences and mories can flow into another’s dreams. And because of their resemblance, what one experiences, the other might experience sooner or later."
"Their spirits are linked together. It’s like two twins; if raised together, they will beco more in tune with each other. If they get along well enough, they might even speak in unison, or understand what the other wants without speaking. If one gets hurt, the other can sense it."
"But if their living environnts differ, then this linkage of spirits will be severed. Because they are no longer similar — the divergence of their lives ends that resemblance."
"I thought at that ti... If an Idol Wizard who holds the Law of Resemblance can link their spirit. Then what about the lvin family?
"I had such suspicions at the ti. But those lvins who left Winter just seed so normal... This made my suspicions baseless."
"Now I have finally arrived at the lvin family’s residence and witnessed all this."
Annan sighed: "Can you tell about it?
"——Lord ’God Among n’?"
"Of course."
Just then, an elderly lvin beside Annan replied: "With pleasure."
"Your elder... are you ’God Among n’?"
Annan raised an eyebrow.
"No."
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl answered: "I can also be ’God Among n’."
"We are all ’God Among n’."
"We are all ’God Among n’."
The echoing voices rose and fell.
"Then, what about the one from the Gold rank?"
Annan asked: "’God Among n’ isn’t it a profession?"
"God Among n — where do gods co from?"
One lvin countered.
"We who yearn for the blood of the God Child, possess our own divinity."
Another lvin answered.
"If needed, we can all beco ’Gods Among n’."
"But until ’God Among n’ manifests, it resides in everyone."
"Why have you never seen ’God Among n’?"
"Why can’t the lvins rember the one who inherited the ’God Among n’?"
"Because it doesn’t always exist."
"Because it can’t always be rembered."
"Because it is our collective fantasy."
"It only exists in this place."
"It appears at the right mont."
"You shouldn’t have co."
At this point, the truth beca clear.
The so-called "God Among n"... is not about a specific individual.
It is a spirit, a collective will.
An incorporeal deity entwined with this land, existing for who knows how long—a "Collective Will" generated by the synchronized lvin family.
The process of "inheriting the profession" is to have the clanspeople share the "blood of the God Child."
Afterward, he/she can provide new strength to the "God Among n."
That is not an inheritor, but a sacrifice.
This explains why the lvin family needs so many death chrysalises and living corpses...
Not to pilot humanoid Gundams.
But to provide the "best body" for "God Among n" to use when manifesting.
This "God Among n"—
——Its na is, [lvin].
