Early Christians plainly viewed Jesus as an heir of David, a legitimate claimant to the throne of Israel.

Which I think Jesus vied for, but rather having died instead became the Messiah in the hearts of those who believed it.

And so Christ became the figure who liberated whole science form the dark ages, true reverence from today, and for which the New World could never have been known.

The De Vinci Code is mostly bunk. But it happens that Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene. The proof is in the fact that he waited until she was alone and then he revealed himself to her alone, and he did this before seeing God. Only one person would be more significant to Jesus than his Father, and would be his wife.

He was born into it.

"but rather having died instead became the Messiah "

He claimed that while alive.

And the figure that conquered the Roman Empire, which (attempted to) put him to death.
