Chapter 267: The Eucharist (2)
The body of a saint is called the "Eucharist," which is often used to mean 'white bread and white wine'.
Thus, the priests of Lun would eat a meal of white bread and white wine once a weekend.
It was a tradition derived from the myth that, long ago, the prophet Lun made white bread from his own flesh and white wine from his own blood, which he shared with his followers.
And those who followed the doctrines of the Lun religion, either by copying them or adapting them with clever twists and turns, had broadly similar cultures.
For example, the 'New World Church', 'Om Church' and 'Manson Church' which are rapidly growing in power throughout the empire.
They copied and used Rune's old doctrines almost exactly, but added their own unique interpretations to the empty parts of the doctrines, and eventually creating a whole new religion.
And the highest-ranking priests, including 'Elmani', 'Om', and 'Charles', the heads of these large-scale heresies and pseudo-religions, were now gathered in one place.
It was in front of a temple of the New Testament in Quovadis, on the outskirts of the Imperial City, with few people.
A large group of people gathered together and began to talk.
"Greetings, Priest, it's been a while. Are you looking much better?"
"Well, I've gotten a bit of a boost this time around when a merchant guild donated their entire fortune to me."
