Chapter 29-Difference in thought
“Wow…”
Lemfra could only open his mouth and express admiration.
Now it is the end of the harvest season and it is night, so I couldn’t see the huge plains flooded with golden light, but just looking at the nearby villages and the numerous branches lying on the ground, Lempria is a land with vast potential. Knew whether
“These villages, are they new since your god came to visit you?”
“No. Originally, there were many villages around here. Even before the gods appeared, we communicated a lot with each other, so after the gods appeared in front of us, we were able to quickly open a field of harmony. “
It is said that many of these villages were maintained without the power of the gods.
It was absurd, but the fertility of the land made everything possible.
“Was the land around here originally this good? Before the gods appeared.”
“Yes, that’s right. It’s the grace of the gods we didn’t know about. First of all, I’ll guide you to the city.”
He walked slowly towards the biggest light.
Since it is said to be the center of many villages, I thought I would have to walk quite far, but after walking for only 30 minutes, I came to the city.
‘I want it.’
I was very coveted.
Many villages, fertile land.
I wanted to dedicate all of this to Lemfra.
“This is Astia, the city of stars.”
“Yes.”
It was quite small to be called a city.
In terms of sheer size, it was larger than Lemfra Village, but the level of development was not as high as Lemfra Village.
Unlike Lempra Village, where houses were built by burning bricks, most of the buildings were made of straw, and only the main part of the pillars was made of wood.
The presumed pantheon in the center of the city was made of wood, and even the place where the emperor lived was made of wood, but even the lowliest in Lemfra Village could afford such a structure.
‘It’s a city, but it’s worse than our village.’
The gap widened because they didn’t develop a method to create a high temperature because there were few tall trees around them and there was no place for metal to fly.
It was not possible to ignore their overall culture just because their technology was poor, but with such a difference starting from the architecture, I had no choice but to have a feeling of ignoring them implicitly.
“Is this a city?”
“Yes, there are over a thousand people living in Astia.”
600 People also live in Lemfra Village.
“And, did you say you were the crown prince? Then this city and village are empires?”
Callimose remained calm in the face of Lempria’s words.
The opponents were those from beyond the land split in half.
Until I met Lempria, I thought that the land split in half was the land of demons.
Lempria’s clothes were stitched differently from her own clothes, which were simply cut and shaped from leather.
Even in the empire, only some villages were used, so the crown prince’s own clothes were not sewn, but Lempria’s clothes were sewn, so it was not strange to think that the other party was a more advanced civilization.
Moreover, the appearance of the spear she was holding was unusual.
The spearhead was wooden, but the tip of the spear was a turquoise stone.
At first glance, it seemed much harder than normal stones.
“We still lack a lot, but God called us an empire, so we call ourselves an empire.”
“It’s an empire…”
Lempria smiled.
“Alprea, remember. We will also establish a nation as soon as we return.”
The concept of a nation was established when Eria, who heard the story of Catria, told philosophers about the nation.
The concept of a nation that unites countless villages into one is because they had faith in Lemfra, a larger concept than that, so they did not immediately try to implement it. I couldn’t stay still.
“I understand. Lempria-sama.”
From the conversation between Alprea and Lempria, Callimose could see how strong Lempria was wielding power over her region.
She is a woman who can do great things to found a nation without consulting others.
‘It’s a dangerous woman.’
However, if you handle it well, you can turn a crisis into an opportunity.
“I’ll take you to the imperial palace.”
“Okay, guide me once.”
Even though she was called the imperial palace, she was very humble.
If it was made of stone, it would have been possible to live at least Wiyong-ri, but it was a wooden house, and although it was built with a height and a larger scale, the pressure of being a place where the leader of a power lived did not exist anywhere.
“If you are the crown prince, is your father the emperor?”
“Yes.”
As he approached the palace, two people who appeared to be servants approached and stopped him.
“It’s me.”
“Are you here?”
Unable to recognize Callimose, who was covered in leather, the attendants retreated back when they heard his voice.
“The people coming later are very important guests. I’d like to introduce you to my father, so tell him.”
“Okay.”
The servant went upstairs with a gesture of complete submission.
“Why does the author obey you?”
It was not common for people to obey people in Lemfra Village.
The army, made up of soldiers, obeyed from top to bottom, but in the village, there were not many people who showed obedience to that extent, even if it was the horse of the feint.
Except for the fact that the people of Alprea Village worked hard to free Alfre, who had become a slave god, there was no one who obeyed so thoroughly.
“Because that’s the class in our society.”
“Rank?”
Lempria looked at Callimose as if she did not understand.
“Yes, our empire is divided into royalty, nobles, commoners, and slaves. There are 5 classes in the nobility. It’s a total of 8 classes. We appoint the leaders of each village as nobles and commit a serious crime. I designate the builders as slaves. The people I just met are commoners, so they have no choice but to obey me.”
It was impossible in Lempria’s head.
Dividing classes between people, how could that be?
I thought that there could be enough of a class like slaves.
Because those who committed sins needed time to atone for their sins.
It is doubtful whether the royal family even needs to be distinguished, but as they are the rulers of a country, there may be a need to differentiate them.
But you divide the nobles into 5 classes and add commoners?
“Aren’t all human beings equal under God? How on earth do those who claim to worship God determine superiority and inferiority among human beings?”
“Lempria-sama can say that because she came from a place where only one god is worshiped. We each worship a different god. The ranks of ordinary believers and clergy who are trusted by the gods can of course be divided. The ranks of the nobility are inevitably differentiated according to the ranks held by the gods.”
‘Is this the cultural difference that Catria-sama said?’
The Goddess of Wisdom once told me.
Someday, you might encounter a civilization that has ideas different from Lempria’s.
Understanding and empathizing with the development of their civilization is one of the important capabilities as a leader.
However, even from Katria’s point of view, the situation in the south would be considered strange.
In her thoughts, all human beings were human beings.
Even Feint, the apostle of Lemprasin, speaks casually when talking to philosophers and is considerate of humans from the northern village, who are in the lowest position in the village.
But those who are not under Lemprasin’s command, but who are entrusted with the oracle of fragments of the face, are trying to rise above other humans?
‘Ifritia-nim said that.’
If you think something is wrong, you have to correct it.
“I thought of a way to solve the human class problem that inevitably arises in your empire. Will you listen?”
“This is not a problem. It is perfectly normal.”
“No, classifying humans is like an insult to God.”
At her Lempria’s confident statement, Kali Moses looked at her as if it were unfair.
“Yes, let’s call it a mistake. How can class not arise?”
“All of you can worship Lemfra, the omniscient and omnipotent creator god. Lempr has a status that is incomparable to other gods, so if everyone follows him, there will be no class.”
