Trinitas Mundus - The Story of Saint Knight Ray

The battle outside the cave was also ended when the Rays beat the God of Nothingness (Vanitas).

The Rays, who joined Hamish Markat and others, returned from the wilderness known as Desperationis.

Ray and Luna returned to the west after celebrating their victory in Zaleshe, the ghost tribe capital.

Although Luna returned to her homeland once, she soon returned to Sochius and stood at the top of the country as the son of the moon.

But it is not her intention, but her determination to separate politics from religion.

Elise Nortia and the other priests of the Temple of Darkness disagree with Luna's idea. However, Luna's strong claim that rule by clerics is against the will of the Dark God (Noctis) led to the transfer of the capital from Luberna to Zaleshe.

With the transfer of the capital to Zalesche, the ghosts rejoice.

But Luna also criticized oligarchy politics by some chiefs there, proposing to create a parliament where representatives of all races could discuss it equally.

The ghosts failed to understand Luna's thoughts, but agree to the offer from the other party, who vows absolute loyalty, without speaking out against it.

As a result, an organisation called the "National Assembly of Sochius” was created, which also allowed people and beasts who hit minorities to be involved in politics.

As head of state, Luna created the position of "consul". The consul was elected by Parliament and, naturally for the first consul, Luna was elected.

She wanted to establish a term of office for the consul, but would desist from the overwhelming opposition of Parliament.

For that reason, Luna was in the position of consul until she finished that raw.

The transition to democracy was not easy. As a result, measures such as improving education would be implemented, but the results would not appear while she was alive.

Restoration of relations with neighbouring countries became even more difficult.

In particular, the directly damaged kingdoms of Kaum and Lax seek substantial damages, and the Union of Urban States, including the city of Periclitle, will also synchronize with it.

Luna went out to Fort Toa and staunchly negotiated. The result, however, was not fragrant and one person asked for help.

The person was her brother-in-law, Zacharias Lockhart, who secretly gave Luna information about the countries and measures to facilitate the negotiations.

As a result, countries also succeeded in moderating their claims and in clinging to the conclusion of the Inviolability Treaty and the Consultative Agreement.

She reigned over the years as a consul, but ended her life without eventually getting married.

The reason for this is said to be because he devoted his life to Noctis, or because he couldn't break his feelings for a certain person, but he was never told from his mouth.

When Ray returns to the meadow, he declares to the people of the meadow that the divine trust of the earth (Mons) has been accomplished and that the world has been saved from doom.

The people of the meadow rejoiced in the words, and once again pledged allegiance to Ray.

Ray entered the kingdom of Luke's Holy King, led by the Mercenary Corps of Markat (Red Arms) and 10,000 other wicked crusaders and the elite people of the meadows.

Around that time, in the Holy Capital of the Holy Kingdom, Paxlumen, the Holy King Augustino and Archbishop Bernardino Rolfo were in fierce conflict.

Augustino uses the Beastly Slave Troop to uncover the injustice of the Order, but the Archbishop was using the power he had built to the fullest to resist.

When Ray joined Augustino, he assumed the position of “Holy General”, head of the Order of the Holy Knights under the authority of the Holy King. In contrast, Rolfo claimed that Ray was null and void because he did not go through the regular procedure.

But without lending an ear to it, Ray pressed the Archbishop to leave.

Rolfo initially resisted violently. But when the assassination squad, the trump card of the Archbishop, is annihilated by Uno and other Beastmen squads, there is no longer any prospect of being able to beat the Holy Kings with the people of the meadows, and the Archbishop collapses at once.

Though Phototheistic was not abolished, it regained its original function as a temple of light around the moderate bishops.

Domestic turmoil subsided, but relations with the Caerm Empire remained improved.

Against the backdrop of the power of the people of the meadows, Ray committed himself to finalizing the border line and concluding a ceasefire agreement.

Initially, the imperial side also showed a tough attitude, but there was a political dispute over the fall of the emperor and he couldn't afford to make a run with Luke.

Ray negotiated tenaciously in good faith without going into that mess. His dedication and the mighty power of the people of the meadows forced the elders, including the Chancellor, the Duke of Ezzarington, to agree on a truce as well.

Ray was also working on the reform of the Order of the Holy Knights as the Holy General.

It abolished the hereditary system and imposed rigorous training on the Holy Knight, who until then was proud to be a privileged class. The training was won by the elites of the Mercenary Corps of Markat (Red Arms), and those who could not keep up with the training were relentlessly banished.

Furthermore, he preached pure poverty to the Holy Knight and himself carried it out.

From the people who see it, they become called “true saints”.

Ten years later, Ray was given the throne of the Holy King by Augustino. As an Augustino, I wanted to cede the throne of the Holy King at an earlier time, but I need a decade because Ray's rhetoric and the confusion caused by the reform were not completely convergent.

I'm already married to Ashley, and I took the throne with her. Behind them stands Stella as an escort and samurai.

Furthermore, he has recruited the Beast Troop as a Kingsguard, and Aldo, who was called Uno by the commander of that regiment, is in office.

Hamish Marcutt was offered the status of Knights Commander, but he said, "I have no knights to serve me," and he insisted, remaining a mercenary, to serve Ray.

Ray, who became Holy King, proceeded with agrarian and commercial reforms, among others. Though there was a struggle with forces trying to protect their acquired rights, Ray pushed for reform with a hard-woven response.

As a result, Luke's Holy King gradually turns into a rich nation.

Thirty years after assuming the throne, he, called the “Holy Knight King”, also decided to leave and ceded the throne to his son. As far as he was concerned, he wanted to abolish the hereditary system, but domestic public opinion did not allow it, and the Arklite dynasty was to be born unwillingly.

Ray expected that to happen and had put in place various systems to become a constitutional monarchy.

It was the first to enact a constitution and inaugurate Parliament. He also reformed the Executive, the Holy King's Palace, separating the administration from the judiciary.

We were also seeking to improve education for these reforms, and Luke's Holy King was completely reborn as a rich nation.

After his departure, Ray spent time with Ashley in a small outhouse on the outskirts of Paxlumen, where he quietly ended his life.

Holy Grace woke up in her home room with the sunset slipping in.

In front of him there is a pile of luggage to send to the boarding house, and I can only hear the sound of a cooling fan on the computer who was trying to organize the data.

(That was a real dream. I can't believe I'm in a novel I wrote...)

I tell myself that it was a real dream, though confused by what remains as an intense experience. And I resumed moving work.

A few days later, we headed to the station to head to the boarding house. I went to high school, my alma mater, because I could afford the time on the train.

Spring break meant that there were few people and I was looking at the memorable school building.

I heard footsteps from behind him. Looking back, Runa Tsukiya stands there.

"Le... Mr. Lunar Palace..."

I almost say “Luna” unexpectedly, and I rush to rephrase it.

"Ray...... Saint, long time no see. I just need to talk to you for a second. Can you hang out with me?

That's what I'm saying. I'm headed to a bench near Grand.

In the Grand, athletic students are encouraged to practice.

"I might be laughed at if we talked about this..." Luna started talking.

"... do you remember that world? About that world you fought against the godless (Vanitas)..."

Ray opened his eyes to the words and nodded loudly, "Of course I remember you," he said.

"Good......" Luna grinned and the two told each other what they had been through for about an hour.

Ray looked at the clock and said, "Too bad, but it's time for the train," and stood up.

Luna stood up the same way, offering her right hand.

"We'll talk again sometime. Even so, I'm a university in Kyoto, and you're in Tokyo, so I don't think I'll see you very well."

Ray took that hand,

"Right... by the way, are you going to see that guy? Isn't Kyoto close?"

"Right. I want to see you, but I'm not going to see you for the time being"

"Why not? I hear we didn't get to see each other in the world before."

"I'm going to go see him when I'm a little older. 'Cause you're not old enough to drink."

That's what I said, laughed, twirled around and turned my back. And look back like you remembered something.

"Bye, Your Holiness. Don't be happy with His Majesty's future," he said, hands on his chest, bowing his head exaggerated.

Ray makes an equally serious look as he sees that he's about to erupt.

"The consul is also in good health. We look forward to seeing you again."

Shortly thereafter, they both laugh at the same time.

We walk together to the school gate, but there they stopped.

"" So long, "the two said at the same time, beginning to walk their respective paths.

A cheerful hissing is sounding, as if to bless them both.

It's over.
