Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 462: Chapter 186: Wizard Recognized by the World (Part 2)

The dignity and confidence that he once had were gone from his face, replaced by deep exhaustion and unmistakable shock.

He witnessed the collapse of the Judgement Army, the fleeing of the knights, and the victory of the Royal Knight Order.

It all happened too quickly, so fast that he could hardly believe it, "How is this possible..."

The Pope’s voice trembled, his heart filled with questions and fear.

The Holy Light Church, this powerful force that had ruled the Bright Continent for centuries, was defeated just like that.

His belief, his faith, his everything, collapsed at this moment.

He closed his eyes, trying to find answers in his heart, trying to find comfort from God’s revelation.

But his heart was blank, without any response.

He felt an unprecedented loneliness and helplessness.

The Pope knew that from today onwards, everything would change, and the rule of the Holy Light Church had ended.

...

The Dawn Sect continued to spread across the continent.

This sect, different from the Holy Light Church, worshiped not the Light God but rebirth and hope.

As the rule of the Holy Light Church gradually disintegrated, the Dawn Sect quietly began to rise among the people, its teachings like a spring breeze, brushing over every heart longing for change.

The believers of the Dawn Sect believed that every day is a new beginning, and every dawn signifies the birth of hope.

They didn’t adhere to cumbersome rituals and dogmas, but approached their god through simple prayers and inner contemplation.

This liberal and inclusive way of faith attracted countless people disappointed with the Holy Light Church, who found spiritual solace and a sense of belonging within this emerging sect.

Over time, the followers of the Dawn Sect multiplied, and their influence began to spread across the entire Bright Continent.

They established many small chapels, giving the faithful a place to gather and pray.

Though these chapels were humble, they were filled with warmth and energy.

Here, people shared each other’s stories, helped one another, and prayed together, hoping for a brighter future.

Gradually, the Holy Light Believers shifted from theocracy towards a form of spiritual faith!

And at this time, the Dawn Sect began to reposition wizards.

Or rather, it exonerated the wizards, lifted the bounty on them, and affirmed their contributions to the Bright Continent in ancient times.

This news caused a huge reaction among the common folk.

For a long time, wizards had been symbols of mystery and fear, regarded as representatives of Dark Power, often associated with omens and disasters.

But with the advent of the Dawn Church and the leadership of Duke Frost Wolf, this notion began to change.

At first, the commoners were confused and uneasy about this.

They had been taught from a young age to be wary of wizards, viewing them as threats to society.

However, with the Dawn Sect’s propaganda and education, people began to learn about the history of wizards and their actual role on the Bright Continent.

People gradually realized that wizards were not born evil; they possessed special abilities that could be used for healing, protection, and creation.

The wizards felt immensely excited and grateful for the Dawn Sect’s repositioning.

For a long time, they had lived on the fringes of society, suffering misunderstanding and exclusion.

But now, with the Dawn Sect’s decision, they finally saw the dawn of acceptance by society.

At secret gatherings where wizards congregated, the news spread like wildfire.

Their eyes gleamed with hope, their hearts filled with visions of the future.

They began discussing how to take advantage of this opportunity not only to fight for more rights for themselves but also to make greater contributions to the entire society.

They knew this was not merely an opportunity to clear their names but also a pivotal moment to change the continent’s entire mindset.

They had to proceed cautiously, ensuring each step was taken safely to avoid unnecessary panic and misunderstanding.

The young wizards were especially thrilled; they saw this as an opportunity to showcase their talents.

They began actively learning how to communicate with ordinary people, how to explain their abilities, and how to make people understand the positive aspects of witchcraft.

They dreamed that one day, they could stand before the public and proudly display their power instead of hiding in the shadows.

They demonstrated their value through practical actions, healing the sick, protecting villages from natural disasters.

In some places, wizards even became Lords of their territories, and their wisdom and power were widely respected.

This transformation was slow and profound, but it indeed occurred.

Wizards were no longer symbols of fear but became messengers of hope.

Together with the Dawn Sect, they worked hard to bring new order and prosperity to the Bright Continent.

It all stemmed from that decisive moment when the Dawn Sect chose to exonerate wizards and society began to reevaluate these misunderstood power holders.

Duke Frost Wolf became the hero in the wizards’ hearts.

His foresight and courage not only changed the teachings of the Dawn Sect but also earned wizards the respect and status they deserved.

In the hearts of wizards, the name of Duke Frost Wolf was imbued with legendary colors, his image depicted as a wise and courageous leader, a true peacemaker.

In the wizards’ secret gatherings, the statue of Duke Frost Wolf was respectfully placed, and his deeds were sung.

Their eyes shone with admiration, filled with gratitude towards this great leader.

The wizards began creating poems and songs, praising Duke Frost Wolf’s wisdom and courage.

They wove his name into spells with the oldest witchcraft language, hoping to convey their respect and gratitude through it.

In some Wizard Academies, specialized courses were even established to study Duke Frost Wolf’s leadership art and his profound impact on the Bright Continent.

As time passed, the attitude of the common folk began to change.

They started accepting that wizards were part of society, even beginning to respect their knowledge and skills.

Some brave commoners began to engage with wizards, seeking their help and guidance.

These positive interactions further eliminated people’s prejudice and fear of wizards.

In countries like the Silver Moon Kingdom, Wizard Academies started to be established, and wizards began openly teaching civilians how to control and use the power of wizards.

These academies attracted not only young people with the potential to become wizards but also ordinary citizens curious about witchcraft.

Civilians started attending public lectures and demonstrations, their interest and respect for witchcraft gradually growing.

Additionally, wizards began participating in various affairs of the Bright Continent.

They used their powers to help solve problems, promote agricultural production, heal diseases, and even provide military support when necessary.

These practical actions further proved the value of wizards to society, making civilians increasingly believe that wizards were their friends and allies, not enemies.

Ultimately, the perception of wizards by the common folk underwent a fundamental change.

They began to view wizards as the Guardians of the Bright Continent, symbols of wisdom and strength.

This change in perception not only promoted social harmony but also established a new relationship between wizards and ordinary citizens.

And this allowed more and more civilians to become wizards, which held significant importance for the entire Bright Continent’s resistance to the Demon Tide.

Meanwhile.

The existence of Body Refining Mages gradually appeared in everyone’s sight.

No one expected that the Royal Knights were actually Body Refining Mages!

This not only added another path for knights besides Bloodline Knights but also helped knights pioneer a new road after Legend.

The Wizard Academy, Dawn Sect, and Royal Knights gradually began integrating the entire Bright Continent to fight against the impending Demon Tide together!
