Chapter 2634 Benders of Light
The two of them decided to stop by a Master-level powerhouse that welcomed them with deep hospitality and gratitude. After all, which nation wouldn't want to be graced by a visit of the Dawnbringer?
There were many Master-level nations, and Rui couldn't afford to visit each and every one of them. Each time he was known to be passing through a particular region, each nation would be praying to their stars that the Dawnbringer would visit them. And in the case of the Commonwealth of Dincarne, their wishes were fulfilled.
"WELCOME TO DINCARNE, DAWNBRINGER!"
"BLESS US WITH YOUR POWER!"
"DELIVER US FROM THE WICKED MONSTERS!"
Rui simply smiled at them warmly while cursing under his breath. "Damn beggars and their relentless propaganda."
"Wow, they love you so much!" she smiled with amazement as her eyes lit up. "The entire world loves you!"
Rui glanced at her to his side, seated atop the grand chariot that guided them to their quarters that had been prepared for them ahead of time. "It's just the Beggar's Sect aggressively promoting me. Don't think I wanted this."
She turned to him with bright eyes. "Don't you want to bring hope to people?"
He stared at her with a deep gaze. "Not by being deified against my will, no."
"Why are you so against it?" her tone was pure as she gazed at him with an inquisitive tone. "Doesn't it make you happy that you are able to spread so much hope and happiness?"
Rui swept his gaze at the massive crowds that had gathered on either side of the street. Men, women, and children of all ages called out to him with smiles on their faces.
They chanted his epithet with hope.
With longing.
She spread her light and warmth.
She spread the tenets of Genism, teaching them how to free themselves from paralyzing fear, despair, and grief.
The people of Dincarne, having lost much, having suffered extensively, and having been on the brink of collapse, accepted her teachings with deep relief.
That, in addition to the breakthroughs and the Hellbringer model that Rui rapidly bestowed upon them, offered a very visible and noticeable sense of relief to the entire nation. Together, Rui and Amare changed the nation forever.
Before departing, however, Rui made sure to get his hands on all the intel that the Commonwealth of Dincarne had on the Solaris Kingdom. What he was particularly interested in was the leadership of the nation, which was most relevant to him. He wanted to get a more thorough understanding of the nation in general, as well.
Yet, what he learned stunned him.
The Solaris Kingdom was a kingdom of light benders.
Their Martial Artists were known to possess the power to bend light to their will and imagination.
A godly power that only those who possessed the blood of Solaris could possibly wield.
This trait was so important that it even decided who ruled the empire. The one who could bend light the best was naturally regarded as the most pure-blooded sol and thus would be crowned ruler of the nation.
The worst part was that his fears turned out to be true.
The current Queen Lianiala was known to be a cruel, racist Sage regarded to be one of the most pure-blooded sols of the entire Empire, as measured by her ability to bend light. Thus, she was regarded as the queen, and her family became the Royal Solaris Family.
In other words, he was dealing with a family that regarded themselves as the most pure-blooded descendants of the literal Sun.
He was dealing with people who regarded dawn and day as sacred and the night as cursed.
And correspondingly, they regarded the color black as cursed as well. So much so that the color black was banned in all goods, services, and infrastructure in the nation.
"Great, this is going to be fun," he grumbled. -
