Melissa lay on Alex's chest and didn't bother to tell him more. Her role was to show him a path, not to help him walk on it.
It was totally up to Alex to decide if he wanted to walk on a path his wife showed or choose a different one.
Having done her work to guide him, she was now enjoying his warmth and letting him do his thing.
Meanwhile Alex had purchased the things related to Blesseds and started reading them.
First manual:
<<Basics of Blesseds>>
What were the Blesseds?
Humans who were given attention by the Gods were the Blesseds.
They could derive powers by praying to Gods and by performing rituals.
Were they like Sages and Saints?
The answer was no.
Blesseds were merely normal people getting powers whereas Sages and Saints were completely different.
A Sage focused on wisdom and knowledge through the path of spirituality and provided guidance and deep insights whereas a Saint referred to an exceptionally virtuous, holy, and devoted person.
Depending on person to person, Sages and Saints would either be like ordinary people or extremely powerful. Much more than even Blesseds.
However, it was not easy to find a Sage as they usually secluded themselves while a Saint was busy with work in Churches.
In all three cases though, one thing was very common. It was that they all prayed and had a lot of faith in their particular Gods.
This brings us to the second manual:
<<Concept of Prayers and Faith>>
A God wasn't very demanding. To make them happy one could do something as simple as offer a fruit or flowers everyday or even just go and pray in a temple or to their idol.
Some Gods didn't even ask that much and would get happy if their devotees remembered them throughout the day while doing their everyday things.
For example, when they wake up and remember God and be grateful for another sunrise, it would make God happy.
Praying before each meal, before sleeping, so on and so forth.
Most Gods would be happy by just this.
However, there were some who wouldn't budge even if a devotee spent their entire life worshipping them.
Some Gods had a lot of demands and if the devotees could somehow impress them and get their blessings, they would be rewarded heftily.
Coming across such Gods was rare since there weren't many.
Even if there were, no devotee was pure enough and spiritual enough to catch their attention on Earth.
It would take lots of discipline, focus, and faith in general to impress any God.
If it were that easy, any random person on Earth would become a Blessed easily.
Just via good karma and a pure heart could one impress a God and get blessings. But with the way the world was, it was next to impossible for such a person to be present.
In any case, there were always exceptions and some crazy humans who had achieved such feats and became a Blessed.
More about them was in the third manual:
<<Blessed Affairs Sneak Peek>>
Each continent on Earth had hundreds of thousands of Blesseds.
However, there was only one who was the best of the best among the rest.
This person was termed as the guardian of the continent as they were the ones who would come out in case there was any major problem.
Information on them was classified and accessible to only a select few.
The seven guardians of the seven continents were in seclusion most of the time and never came out in public.
They were big devotees of their respective Gods and would busy themselves in prayers and meditations.
Other than them, the remaining Blesseds were all ranked according to their prowess.
The more faith and devotion one had, the more would their rank be.
However, there were many exceptions to it as well.
There were many newborns who had blessings and growing up, even if they didn't have much faith, they would still be far stronger than the rest.
Such cases were usually due to the parents who would have been big devotees of Gods or gone through immense sacrifices.
A famous Blessed of this case was Anna Smith.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm She was a teenage girl from the countryside in the United Kingdom and her parents had been through a lot of hardships and sacrificed a lot. On top of that, they were also big devotees which eventually led to Anna gaining immense benefits after her birth.
Anna's parents had died after her birth, but due to the blessing of Gods, she had survived and was well off today.
Her rank in the Blessed category was in the top 500 and she was not weak by any means.
Another major thing that had to be taken note of about the Blesseds was that there were some Blesseds who would act as administrators and keep the other Blesseds in check.
If there weren't such people, there would be no order and the world would have collapsed.
It is these guys who keep a check on everything and ensure that balance is maintained in the world.
Such information that Alex read in the manual immediately rang many bells in his mind.
'These guys… did they…'
Alex suddenly felt his goosebumps arise.
Melissa could feel Alex's changing emotions. Although she had no idea what was going on his mind, she put her best bet into what she felt he might be looking at, and said,
"No, honey. Nobody knows about your reincarnation in this world."
Listening to Melissa's words, Alex opened his eyes and looked at her.
Melissa nodded her head. "I can say that with 100% guarantee. Not only that, I'll tell you a little more about it."
Melissa smiled and getting her face close to Alex's, continued, "your reincarnation thing is only known by your wives and no one else. Even among your wives, half of them aren't aware of it yet."
