In the mythological epic of the Guart people, the first son born to the God of Gods, the King of Gods and the Queen of Gods, who is in charge of everything, is born with a miraculous nature. He has the sun in one eye and the moon in the other. .
From the moment he was born, the world regardless of day or night, or black and white, had the sun and the moon, and the changes between day and night.
Seeing this, the God King and God Queen named the eldest son who was born to control the sun, moon and stars, and who was born with black and white, "Cloratoi", which means "holding the stars in his hand".
In the epics about myths of the Guart people, the gods have gone through many battles and stories. Many gods have been constantly changing, dying or being reborn. Only the God King, the God Queen and the eldest son Crolatoi have not died. However, Crolatoi is also interpreted as the god of war in the mythology of the Guart people.
In fact, there are other people who are the real God of War, but many people are accustomed to treating Crolatoi as the God of War. He is described in some scriptures and manuscripts like this - "His birth was accompanied by the world's first As soon as he opens his eyes, night will fall. He wears golden armor and holds sharp weapons. He is never afraid of death and offers the enemy's head to the God King... "
People love Crolatoi far more than other gods. Perhaps in everyone's understanding, Crolatoi will eventually become the second king of the gods, and the return of "investing" in this god king in advance The rate would obviously be ridiculously high.
Some people also say that this is because Clolatoi controls the changes between day and night. During the day, he opens one eye and closes one eye. At night, he opens the other eye and closes the other eye, whether it is sunlight or moonlight. Wherever he goes, he sees everything, so people get closer to him.
Du Lin was lost in thought for a while, then looked down at Ophelia with a smile. Just now the girl asked him a question, what should their child be called.
He walked to the bedside, stretched out his hand and touched the baby's little face carefully with the back of his hand. It seemed that his "old skin" was too hard or the body hair was tingling on the baby's tender skin. The baby shrank his head. She seemed to want to avoid his touch.
It's a very interesting little thing. Dulin took back his hand, looked at the girl, and said with a smile, "Toy, represents the brightest star in Guarte." He did not ask Ophelia if she thought this name Not bad, but I chose this name for my child very directly.
Ophelia's eyes lit up, "The brightest star... do you mean the sun?" Dulin nodded, and the girl seemed relieved, "I think it's very good, and it's not so difficult to read. "
The matter of naming the child was thus decided. When naming Troy, Dulin thought of the Son of God, and also excerpted the second half of the god's name Clolatoi and gave it to the child.
It seems that his attitude and attention to this child are much higher than Alyssa's two children.
This is not actually Dulin's preference for anyone, he just expressed a very simple and straightforward fact that meets social needs. People will pay more attention to this child!
So Dulin wanted to give him a very meaningful name, so that people could feel that Dulin valued this child as much as they needed and thought, so much so that he could even use some in the name. Allusions or names of characters in mythology.
This kind of attention will make everyone very satisfied. It's natural to tell yourself, look, I know that Du Lin attaches great importance to this child because he is special.
What's special about him is that he will inherit everything from the Dulin and Timamont families. His starting point has exceeded the end point of ninety-nine percent of the people in this society, and it has exceeded it by a lot.
Dulin deserves to attach great importance to him. Only in this way is it logical and in line with people's "rigid needs."
If Du Lin showed no concern and chose a name casually, people would start to think about why he was so perfunctory.
Was he trying to convey a message through the name, that there was an unhealable rift between him and the Timamont family, or was he trying to tell others that he preferred his illegitimate son
No matter how he explains it or what others think, it will eventually bring disaster to the other two children, an unbearable disaster.
In order to ensure and stabilize their current and future interests, those with vested interests were willing to risk offending Du Lin and hurt the two children.
Because Du Lin cannot live forever, as long as he dies, this child will be in charge. No matter how much they lose today, tomorrow this child will replenish them with interest.
So it’s not just as simple as being born and done with!
Before people went to work the next morning, everyone in the entire empire who was qualified to know knew the news. The first person to appear in front of Dulin was the Archbishop of Kandy.
He brought almost all the clergy from the Imperial Cathedral, and many believers gathered outside the hospital.
As soon as they met, Kandy, who was holding a solid gold cross in his hand, walked a few steps quickly and hugged Dulin in a very polite manner. He looked at Ophelia and the child in the ward, and the smile on his face was almost gone. No more.
"Listen, I'll do the baby's baptism myself. I can't wait. Of course you don't have to doubt that I just want to throw him into the water and I will pick him up... This is just a joke. Don't you think I'm cool? Is it humorous?" Kandy never stopped talking. He crossed Dulin and walked to the bedside. He held the cross in his chest with both hands and didn't know where to put it.
"It's so cute, I mean really, really cute. I can't wait to convey the gospel of Father God to him. When will we be baptized?" He glanced at Du Lin, "Is it now, or is it afternoon? I think it's actually next Monday. Yes, I will baptize him alone in front of everyone, in the cathedral, under the gaze of God the Father, and that is my glory and his glory.”
He teased the child, and when he smiled stupidly, he looked like a thirty-year-old, two-hundred-pound fat man. "By the way, what's his name? Is he very majestic or very artistic?"
Dulin blinked. He had a headache. This guy's mouth was like a perpetual motion machine that could never stop. "His name is Toi, Toi from Krola Toi. Do you know this name?"
He originally thought that Kandy would say he didn't know, because this was not the content of the church. In the past, religions hated each other and even fought each other because of the uniqueness of their beliefs. Wars between different faiths were often more powerful than wars. Even more tragic and inhumane.
Regarding the doctrines of other religious beliefs, each other regards them as scourges and highly toxic poisons. Let alone understanding them, even hearing them makes people uncomfortable. The only solution is to burn all those things and purify them before they can be freed. People feel comfortable.
The Orthodox Church, which has been dominant in the past period, has also reached its peak in exclusivity and uniqueness. Just as others did to them in the past, they have begun to do that to others.
Burn the books and doctrines of other religions, kill the believers of other religions, and anything that is not related to the Orthodox Church and faith will be covered with evil and then burned.
No one will understand the doctrines and content of other religions. They only care about whether everyone has been killed and whether there are any survivors.
But what was unexpected was that Kandy closed his mouth almost without much thought - for only a second, he straightened up and apologized awkwardly for what he had just said, "Sorry, Dulin, I forgot You are a Guarte, Chloratoi... Son of God, Lord of the Stars, a very good name.”
This is some cultural surprise. According to the records of the Guarte people, Crolatoi is "the son of God who is in charge of the replacement of the sun and the moon and the stars." When he arrived in Kandy, he became the master of the stars. Although this It was a cooler statement, but he had strayed from his original intention.
Dulin has no intention of correcting this problem, but he is also very clear that "baptism" is necessary. This is not a whim of Kandy, but a tradition.
In fact, sometimes society is very realistic and contradictory. People are advocating to simplify some complex rituals as much as possible, or even abandon some traditions. But on the high tower of society, in the families or organizations that really control this society, on the contrary is the most old-fashioned.
They ask those at the bottom of society to stop doing these things and stop being traditional, but they themselves have to strictly abide by it. This is the strange thing.
No matter whether the people at the bottom still advocate baptism for children, or even whether those families still have faith, "baptism" is necessary for the nobles. It can be the baptism of the Orthodox Church or other forms of baptism. The situation is not the same. It's not important. What's important is that the child must be watched and blessed by the gods.
Sometimes this makes people think that the nobles may be retarded and stupid, but this is the tradition of the nobles, a tradition that has not changed to this day.
If someone has not been baptized, he will already be regarded as a marginalized person who is not welcomed by the elders in the family and is not blessed by the gods. Only after being baptized and under the gaze of the gods can he grow up healthily, be smart, strong, and be able to overcome All difficulties.
Ophelia was also looking at him, and he smiled, "It doesn't matter, I will baptize this child myself..." Ophelia didn't understand that the upbringing she received made it possible for her to damage her face and face. Choose the latter among those who choose the latter by remaining silent and nothing will happen.
Kandy had some understanding of this. He curled his lips and tilted his head, "Okay, Messiah..."
After that, he stayed here for about ten minutes. Before leaving, he placed the pure gold cross he carried with him next to the child. He promised that he would soon prepare a gift for the child's baptism, and asked to watch the ceremony.
The second person who came after he left surprised Dulin because he had thought of many people, but he had never thought of this person - Henry.
Dulin told Henry about this when he left Ambiluo State yesterday. He entrusted Henry to host the award ceremony if he could not make it back, but he did not expect Henry to follow closely.
He looked a little lackluster, which may have something to do with driving all night and not sleeping well. This can be seen from the lack of oil on his forehead. When this guy was in good condition, his forehead was shiny as if he had touched oil, but now it is gray. of.
His little girlfriend was following him. It could be seen that this girl was still very nervous about Henry. After all, there were so many beautiful girls in the empire, but there were very few people who were rich, powerful, status and willing to spend money.
Henry first said congratulations, then looked at the child, and after asking some of the same questions that Kang asked, he took out a very ancient-looking copper key from his pocket and placed it next to the child.
"I came in a hurry, and I didn't have any suitable gifts on the way, so just give him the key!" Henry acted very calmly. If his little girlfriend hadn't pinched his thigh from time to time, others might have ignored him. Drop a key's value.
Dulin took a look, nodded, said thank you, and then urged Henry to rest and rush back to take charge of the overall situation for him.
He knew this key. It was the key to a manor owned by the Knight family in the imperial capital. It was not far from Dulin's fairy tale castle, only ten minutes away by car.
According to the current price of manors within the Imperial City, the manor given by Henry is worth at least 4.5 million!
And it’s not just the price of land and houses, it also has historical value. Any ancient building is a treasure left by our ancestors, carrying the inheritance of history and civilization.
Of course, it is not the "family property" of the Knight family. It was bought by Mr. Knight a few years ago. When he learned that Dulin and Ophelia's child was born, he immediately called Henry and asked him to Come to the Imperial Capital and send this generous gift over.
Dulin's market situation is very, very good, so good that almost most people have already determined this morning. As long as he doesn't do anything wrong in a hot head, he will definitely be a prime minister.
A future prime minister will definitely be re-elected with his strength and drive. So if we don’t increase investment now, how long will it take
Even Kandy, amid the cry of the priests, broke off the golden cross held in the statue of God the Father in the cathedral, which was said to have been personally blessed by the Pope, and sent it here. Henry gave a set The manor is not so strange.
Moreover, many people will send more things and more valuable things in the future!
Ophelia was already asleep when Du Lin turned around after seeing Henry off. She slept for a while in the morning, and then Kandy came. Now she was so sleepy that she couldn't resist and fell asleep. Du Lin also Didn't bother her.
After asking people to go outside to stop those who were coming to visit, Du Lin also rubbed his head, found an empty ward and walked in. He also needed to rest now.
In the next period of time, he won't have much rest.
