[A] New path

"The beginning is just the first step toward the future you create with your own hands."

.

.

In the depths of Yohan's soul, a letter was engraved with a strange special force.

Using the soul as a pen, go deep into the essence of his soul.

And there it was-

The Sacred Letter [A]!

The moment Yohan realized the Sacred Letter he received, his eyes couldn't help but suddenly contract.

'It really is... [A]!'

Yohan thought of many possibilities.

He even thought there was a high probability it would be [S], since he killed the original [S]Mas, and might take his Sacred Letter.

But I didn't expect Yhwach would directly give [A]!

The Sacred Letter itself has no power, and there's nothing special about it.

Yhwach's blood awakens the Sacred Letter as it's like the Shinigami's Asauchi

Its primary function is to imprint Yhwach's spirit into the soul's core, thus activating the spiritual power or technique of the imprinted person.

By filling the void in the soul

Also, the Sacred Letter doesn't become stronger the closer it is to [A], for example [M] Miracle and [X] The X-Axis are good examples.

But there are two Sacred Letters that form an exception.

These are Sacred Letter [A] and Sacred Letter [B].

These two Sacred Letters represent symbols of power and status within [The Invisible Empire].

Haschwalth was given Sacred Letter [B] and became the leader of [Sternritter].

Yhwach himself is Sacred Letter [A], Emperor of [Wandenreich].

At this moment, Yohan was granted the same Sacred Letter [A] as Yhwach, a feeling similar to being considered his heir or disciple in the Empire.

In fact, during the Thousand-Year Blood War, Yhwach granted Ishida Sacred Letter [A] and clearly announced him as his Successor in [The Invisible Empire].

"I'm in trouble but I'm also happy... I wonder what my Sacred Letter's ability will be..."

Yohan sighed internally.

In [Star Cross Knights] with Sacred Letter [A], Yohan knew what would happen without even thinking about it, and there were many people who weren't convinced.

For Yohan, this was also a convincing form of organization.

The Quincy power that Yohan possesses doesn't belong to Yhwach, and cannot be sanctified. It contains power that Yhwach cannot understand. Therefore, there must be restrictions after granting the Sacred Letter, which is understandable.

In the Thousand-Year Blood War chapter, Yhwach also dealt with Ishida Uryū in the same way.

The result of appointing Ishida as the next successor was that the [Star Cross Knights] people were dissatisfied with the appointment.

After some time, Yohan expressed experiencing the power, then opened his eyes and slowly exhaled.

"How do you feel?"

Seeing this, Yhwach said:

"I've already felt His Majesty's Sacred Letter inscription. I feel as if I've regained part of myself after meeting His Majesty."

"Very good!"

"I'm very much looking forward to your upcoming performance and the addition you'll make to the Quincy, let's end this day."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards the void behind him and took a step forward.

At the same time as he set foot, a threshold of spiritual particles appeared forming in the void. After he took another step, another threshold appeared, step after step, level after level.

Yhwach walked to the void gate, lifted the curtain, and disappeared into it.

"Let's go, Knight of the Star Cross Yohan, I'll take you to your palace and provide you with the necessary Holy Soldiers!"

"At the same time, you can choose an official knight as your assistant!"

When he heard this, Yohan raised her eyebrows.

Are there any restrictions on choosing official knights?

"No!"

Haschwalth shook his head.

"As long as His Majesty hasn't given you the [Sacred Letter], you can choose him!"

"However, if the person you chose is gifted a [Sacred Letter] by His Majesty in the future, he will immediately leave your position as an assistant and become a [Knight of the Star Cross]!"

Are there any objections?

"No one left!"

After finishing speaking, Yohan followed Haschwalth and quickly left the hall.

Upon arriving at the mansion he owned, Yohan walked around it twice.

Needless to say, the benefits of joining the [Knight of the Star Cross] were still very good.

Not only was the place he lived in like a castle, it was also equipped with a large number of sacred soldiers as his subordinates, and there were guards everywhere.

At the same time, there were two maids to take care of the needs.

At this moment, they entered Yohan's bedroom after knocking on the door and obtaining permission to enter and spoke quietly.

"Master Yohan, your uniform is ready for you."

"Can I change it now?"

Hearing this, Yohan was shocked, remembering that he didn't say he wanted to change his uniform.

He immediately lowered his gaze, only to realize that the previous uniform had been burned before during the battle with Bazz-B.

As he thought about this, Yohan said.

"Thank you, but I'll take care of this myself, but before that, could you prepare a bath and some food for me?"

After receiving Yohan's compliment, the two maids smiled and walked away.

"It's our job!"

Yohan nodded.

"While waiting and before they left, Yohan asked them.

"You're also Quincy masters?!"

"That's right!"

The two maids nodded.

"However, we're not the fighting type, so naturally we're not like the combat-oriented Sternritter like you, sir!"

"Our main job is to take care of the Lord Knight's daily life!"

"Of course, if you have problems, we'll take care of them too!"

"That's the case then, it's quite thoughtful."

Yohan touched his chin.

Just as Yohan was about to lie down on a side sofa waiting for the preparations to be made, suddenly, a window opened in the distance.

With a gentle gust of wind.

"Why did you open the window?!"

The two maids tried to close the window against the wind, but Yohan stopped them.

"My Lord Knight?"

"Don't go!"

Yohan said.

"I'm a little hungry, go help me prepare something to eat now!"

The two maids nodded and left immediately. Only then did I realize that a man had appeared at the window at some point.

He couldn't help but think: 'A knight is not measured only by the strength of his sword, but by his wisdom in making decisions and directing the battle.'

-(Who do you think this is?)

Note Sorry for the delay, my entire area's internet was down for repairs so I had to postpone it for now. As for the sacred letter, to clarify, it won't be the same as Yhwach or Ishida, I forgot to say.
