God-kin
神人（しんじん）
Magic & Power SystemsLevels & Classes
Descendants of the Six Great Gods who have awakened the gods' power, called God-kin by the Slane Theocracy; their potential far exceeds that of ordinary people, and about three (or two) exist today, including the Black Scripture's Captain and the Extra Seat.
- The Six Great Gods' blood has been passed down in varying concentrations, and those who inherit it have the potential to become strong; only those who awaken the gods' power are called God-kin (Vol. 6)
- Only those recognized as descendants of the Six Great Gods are called God-kin; those who have awakened the blood of other players, such as the Eight Greed Kings, are called something else
- The Theocracy currently has three (possibly two) God-kin; in the Web novel there are two, the Black Scripture's Captain and a certain cardinal (Vol. 4, author's afterword)
- Web novel: a God-kin wearing the gods' legacy gear could destroy a continent single-handedly; if information about the God-kin leaked, it might provoke a decisive battle with the surviving true Dragon Lords and drag the Theocracy to its ruin
- The Extra Seat "Zesshi Zetsumei" is of mixed blood, descended from the Six Great Gods and from Elf King Decem, and is called "this world's Overlord"
Notes
The reading was long uncertain; the manga and Vol. 15 gloss it as "shinjin," while the Audible audiobook reads it "jinnin."
