Milis Religion

Milis Religion is the largest religious organization in the world founded by Saint Milis that is found almost through out the continents where humans live.

Headquarters
The Great Church is the main headquarters of the Milis Religion located in Millishion, Holy Kingdom of Milis, Millis Continent. The current leader is Pope Harry Grimoire, Cliff Grimoire's grandfather.

Factions
The Milis Religion followed the scripture saying that 'all Demons should be destroyed' and rejected the Demon Race. But 300 years ago, a priest read its scripture that said: "All races are equal under Millis" and questions if the Demon Races are equal as well which caused a division in the priests and causing the religion to split in 2 factions that are in a power struggle since then.

Demon Race Acceptance Faction

 * Also known as the Pope Faction lead by the current Pope Harry Grimoire is the larger faction that has the influence among the majority of the general populace and the Order of Instruction. 50 years ago, the Acceptance faction influence rose after they put an end to the escalating conflicts with the Beast Race and other denizens of the Great Forest and for the next 30 years since then had complete control of the religion and Millishion's affairs. Despite being a religious organization, assassinations is still a method used by both factions especially towards the opposing faction's pope candidate.

Demon Race Expulsion Faction

 * Also known as the Cardinal Faction lead by Cardinal Leblanc McFarlane is the faction of the Milis Religion who zealously follows the old teachings of the Milis Church that the Demon Race should be completely expelled and has a close relationship with the Latreia House and the Order of the Temple and at the peak of their influence, non-human races were strongly oppressed in Millishion which resulted many quarrels with the inhabitants of the Great Forest. While currently losing influence among the 2 factions for the last 30 years, this has changed when the Miko of Memory was born and joins the Demon Race Expulsion Faction to become the candidate for the next pope. The influence of the Demon Race Expulsion rose to the point that even the Royal Family needs permission from the Cardinal to even use the powers of the Miko.

Necklace of Milis

 * Before heading to certain death, Saint Millis gave an ornamental necklace to her most beloved who gave him a kiss on his forehead and wished for his return. When Saint Millis was in danger, her beloved one offered the necklace to God who was touched by the exquisite necklace and beloved's love and intervenes to save Saint Millis.


 * This become a part of the Milis Religion wedding ceremony where a replica of the Necklace of Milis is a requirement of every Milis Church. The priest hands over the necklace to the groom who puts it on her bride. Then the bride kisses the groom on his forehead, a kiss of oath similar to the legend.

Holy Sword Highway
""In these times of suffering, the righteous one endured. In these days of hardship, he cultivated strength.""

- Milis Holy Sciptures Atomos Chapter 12, Verse 31


 * During the war between humans and demons, Saint Milis plans to use his holy sword to defeat the demon army but this takes time to focus the attack. While Milis is preparing the attack, Peter Dolior the commander of the human army and Milis' closest friend fought to hold off the demon army and died in battle until Milis brings down his holy sword on the demon army. The power of the holy sword reached from Millishion, cuts a gap through the Blue Dragon Mountain Range, through the Great Forest, then across the ocean and struck the demon king that instantly kills him at the place now known as Wind Port.


 * The place where Milis launched the attack is now known as the Holy Sword Highway that is still bursting with Mana from Saint Millis, so even if the surrounding area is flooded because the rainy season of the Great Forest, the road remains dry and further proof of that, there are absolutely no encounters with monsters.

Trivia

 * Milis Religion shares similarity with the Catholic Church from the pope being its head to even its teachings.
