บท 89: Saint Baptism Ritual (Conclusion)

After God had left, the Saintess still remained in the divine palace, kneeling with the Pope and the twelve blessed Saints. They all continued praying to God.

They did not stop praying there until after dawn. Within a single day, they had undergone many earth-shattering transformations. Newly rejuvenated, the Saints and the Pope Hodap now seemed to be emitting divine radiance.

Although they did not speak or test their new powers, everyone knew that the Saints were no longer ordinary humans. They had now become completely new existences.

Pope Hodap stood at the center of the crowd, making an announcement. "I declare the first day of January as the Baptism Day of the Church of Light. It will be the most important festival of the Church of Light. On this day, everyone must pray to and praise God, thanking them for bringing us into the new year with hope and glory."
