Herabergen, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, was the Sequence 0 God of the White Tower Pathway and the God of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom. "He" was a Subsidiary God of the Dragon of Imagination Ankewelt known as the Dragon of Wisdom in the Second Epoch and the Wisdom Angel under the Ancient Sun God in the Third Epoch.
Klein suspects that the two items he gained from Edwina Edwards, Groselle's Travels and a key that opens the gate to where Sasrir sleeps in Giant King's Court, were given by God of Knowledge and Wisdom intentionally.
Honorific Name[]
"Power of Knowledge
Power of Reason
God of Wisdom!"
Sacred Emblem[]
Sacred Emblem is the symbol of the Gods which worshiped and glorified by people in the 5th Epoch.
The Sacred Emblem of Knowledge and Wisdom is an omniscient eye on an open book.[3]
"He" has the title of being omniscient and omnipotent.[4]
Appearance[]
In Fourth Epoch: He appears as a hooded elder holding a book with an omniscient gaze, with only his mouth, wrinkles, and long white beard exposed.[3]
Twisted Version: An old man wearing a hood that revealed his mouth, wrinkles, and a white beard. The old man held an open book, and on top of it was an eye that was the symbol of omniscience. At first glance, this old man looked the most normal, but the smile on his face was indescribably evil.
*Twisted version was discovered in Forsaken Land of the Gods in the True Creator's Temple.[5]
True Form: It was a brass dragon the size of a city, capable of expanding even larger. The dragon's body resembled a soft, foldable tower of thick, illusory books, each bearing a brass eye. The closer one moved toward the dragon's head, the darker and more ominous the layers of books and eyes became. At the dragon's brow, a nearly black brass vertical eye opened, gazing at the cross and the figure upon it.[6]
History[]
Lord of Mysteries[]
According to orthodox legend, the Eternal Blazing Sun, the Lord of Storms, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom were formed from the spirit of the Original Creator. The three of them helped humanity through the Cataclysm during the Third Epoch along with the Evernight Goddess, the Earth Mother, and the God of Combat.[7]
However, "He" is, in fact, the Dragon of Wisdom Herabergen, a Subsidiary God of Dragon of Imagination Ankewelt in the 2nd epoch.[8] After the death of Ankewelt, "He" turned to the Ancient Sun God and became the Wisdom Angel, one of the 8 Kings of Angels in the 3rd epoch. Later, "He" joined Rose Redemption as a member of the Kings of Angels faction under Dark Angel Sasrir, which eventually caused the Ancient Sun God's death.[9] "He" then betrayed the Ancient Sun God with the Lord of Storms and the Eternal Blazing Sun, and the three of them consumed the Ancient Sun God's body. Then "He" became the now-known God of Knowledge and Wisdom, a sequence 0 of the White Tower Pathway.
In the Fourth Epoch, all deities have "Their" own countries in poorer places and acknowledged the first Solomon Empire and the Black Emperor's rule over the Northern Continent in order to fight against the opposing factions. At this time, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom had a conflict with the Eternal Blazing Sun and the Lord of Storms due to "Their" neighboring pathways. Later on, "He" reached a common agreement with the other 5 Orthodox Gods, which led to the fall of the Black Emperor and the first Solomon Empire. Afterwards, the 6 Orthodox Gods supported the Tudor-Trunsoest United Empire that ruled the Northern Continent. When the Black Emperor was about to resurrect, the 6 Gods helped Trunsoest to switch to Sequence 0 of the Justiciar Pathway, becoming the Night Emperor. Later on, in the Pale Era, when Death went mad and caused havoc on the Northern Continent with the Primordial Demoness,[10] the 7 Gods (including the God of Craftsmanship) joined force and caused the destruction of Death and a fatal blow to the Primordial Demoness. At the end of the 4th epoch, the 7 Gods fractured and supported different angel families of the Trunsoest Empire to form their own country.[11] The God of Knowledge and Wisdom supported the Castiya Family to create the Feynapotter Kingdom, along with the Earth Mother.
When the barrier around the Earth cracked at the end of the 4th epoch, "He" and the other Orthodox Gods moved "Their" divine kingdoms into the Astral World to mend the cracks.[12] "His" old divine kingdom on Earth later became the headquarters of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom - now known as the Holy Temple of Knowledge, Lenburg.[13]
"He" supported the Feynapotter Kingdom in the Fifth Epoch until the Battle of Violated Oath. After the war, Lenburg, Masin, and Segar were separated from Feynapotter and believed in the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.
According to Lucca Brewster, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom had mentioned the prophecy in his holy bible: the apocalypse will happen in the year 1368 in the 5th Epoch, and there will be a savior.[14]

Through "His" arrangement, Klein received the key to the Giant King's Court, where Sasrir was asleep, via Edwina Edwards.
All 7 Deities wanted to have a Black Emperor, but "They" were not unanimous in "Their" candidate. As such, when George III managed to obtain the opportunity to become one through his preparations, the 7 Deities had no choice but to give "Their" tacit agreement.[15] However, eventually George III's Apotheosis Ritual failed and he died on the spot.
In the 1350 World War, "He" stood on the Evernight Goddess' side and fought against the Eternal Blazing Sun in Lenburg.[16] "They" won the war.
"He", along with the Eternal Blazing Sun, the Evernight Goddess, the Earth Mother, the Lord of Storms, and the God of Steam and Machinery held off the Mother Goddess of Depravity when Mr. Door returned back to Earth because of Amon's and Medici's plan.[17][18]
During Klein's Apotheosis Ritual, "He" was on Klein's side. "He", the Eternal Blazing Sun, and the Lord of Storms fought against Adam.[19]
Circle of Inevitability[]
After the events following the opening of Fourth Epoch Trier in 1358 of the Fifth Epoch, Lumian Lee received top-secret information on Sealed Artifact 0-01 from Ludwig, who was connected to the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.[20]
According to Madam Magician, this was a sign that the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom was willing to support his bid for the Red Priest position, competing against Red Angel Medici.[21]
During The Apocalypse, "He" chose self-destruction, merging with Grisha Adam to help "Him" battle the Primordial God Almighty's will. In the short term, Herabergen's residual consciousness would help Grisha Adam resist the Primordial God Almighty, forming a fragile new balance. In the long term, however, integrating the White Tower Pathway's Uniqueness at that moment would enhance the Primordial God Almighty's will and spirit, accelerating "His" recovery—significantly disadvantaging Grisha Adam in "Their" struggle.[6]
