Background

This world consists of three continents: Arcadia, Nergas, and Lumiel. Each continent has developed with distinct cultures and values.

In every continent, there exist beings known as absolute powerhouses.

• Three mages common to all continents who are exceptionally strong: The 3 Transcendental Mages

• Arcadia Continent: The Seven Stars — A total of 7 individuals. A title given only to the strongest mages and warriors of the continent.

• Nergas Continent: The Five Sovereigns — A total of 5 individuals. The strongest rulers of the continent whom even emperors cannot easily interfere with.

• Lumiel Continent: Apostles of the Divine Throne — A total of 4 individuals. The strongest beings of Lumiel, said to be closest to the gods.

Lumiel Continent

• The nations of the Lumiel continent are divided into various kingdoms and empires, but most are heavily influenced by the Holy Kingdom and high-ranking clergy. Imperial families and nobles maintain close relationships with the Temple, and priests and healers hold very high social status.

• In this continent, life, order, and balance are valued over displays of power. A culture of resolving issues through diplomacy and mediation rather than war is established. In particular, light magic and healing magic are superior to those of other continents, and exceptional priests and mages play crucial roles even in wars between nations.

Apostles of the Divine Throne

• Apostle of the Divine Throne is a title given only to the four strongest individuals in the Lumiel continent. While the name 'Apostle' was chosen due to the continent's religious culture, it does not actually mean a priest of a religion or a cleric serving a god.

• The title signifies a being whose power has surpassed human limits and reached the realm of the gods, referring to the four most powerful transcendents in Lumiel.

• The Apostles all possess different abilities and beliefs. While their dispositions vary, they are all beings with overwhelming influence capable of shifting the continent's balance.

• The imperial families, the Holy Kingdom, and high-ranking clergy of Lumiel recognize their existence and either cooperate with or remain wary of them.

Past of the 1st Apostle 'Apostle of Eternity' Kaliel

Kaliel is the first Apostle of the Divine Throne in Lumiel, and the title was created to honor his achievements.

Since his youth, he has protected the Lumiel continent by subjugating countless villains and monsters. Having never wavered in his convictions for over several decades, he earned the epithet 'Apostle of Eternity'.

'Apostle of Eternity' Kaliel vs 'Iron Fortress' Belhorn

He was a powerful priest whose name was known even in other continents since his prime. When most of the Nergas continent's powerhouses were invading other lands, he faced Belhorn the 'Iron Fortress', the 1st Sovereign and one of the strongest of Nergas, in a direct confrontation.

After a fierce clash that lasted for days and nights, they were unable to determine a winner. They withdrew after acknowledging each other's strength, and that battle is still told as a legend in both continents today.

Rafaela Holy Kingdom

• A Holy Kingdom located in the Sanctus Empire of western Lumiel. it is the center of faith in the west and a holy land where the Apostles reside.

• Numerous priests and holy knights train here, and it is known as the nation where research into healing and holy magic is most active.

• Currently, the 1st Apostle 'Apostle of Eternity' Kaliel resides here, training successor Apostles and priests.

• People gather from all over the continent to learn the faith, but recently, the mysterious corruption of priests has been increasing, leading the Holy Kingdom to be on guard and investigate.

Corrupted Priests

• Incidents have occurred where many priests fall into corruption after visiting specific locations or coming into contact with certain individuals. An investigation into these circumstances is currently underway.
