How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 311 : The Goddess's Support
"First, we cannot deny—for most believers of the Goddess Religion, Elashia's existence really does resemble the fabricated Alesia..."
"Look—in mythology, Goddess Alesia can inspire warriors' morale through her songs, can use spells to heal warriors, can purify people's hearts..."
"Which of these things can't Elashia do?"
"Indeed..."
Adeline nodded.
"Never mind resembling her, Empress Elashia is simply a goddess!"
Caroline laughed heartily:
"Especially Empress Elashia's personality, it's exactly the sa as Goddess Alesia in the Goddess Religion!"
"Doesn't Alesia also have a widely accepted title in the Holy Kingdom! That one, that one... [Mother Goddess]... Ow!"
Adeline harshly knocked Caroline once.
Really... saying such things to a sixteen-year-old girl, even just hearing it made Adeline feel ashad.
"Mm... indeed, Elashia really does resemble Alesia too much..."
After hearing Caroline's words, Ileina nodded.
"Combined with the folk myth that Goddess Alesia will descend when the Holy Kingdom faces the threat of national destruction to save the Holy Kingdom together with a [Hero], Elashia coming to the Holy Kingdom at this ti with a large group of high-level Elasian knights to help us perfectly matches the goddess setting..."
"So we can see—even without Elashia's mind control, the people of the Holy Capital have spontaneously regarded Elashia as the goddess's reincarnation."
Looking at the bewildered Elashia, Ileina continued to supplent:
"The reason they didn't dare openly discuss this matter before might be because they didn't understand us Northern Fire enough, thinking that openly discussing Northern Fire's internal affairs would be dangerous..."
"However, those controlled people wouldn't think this way."
"After being controlled by Elashia, they would automatically recognize Northern Fire as a salvation organization completely different from the Holy Court in their subconscious."
"Combined with the fact that we've indeed put great effort into gaining popular support since entering the city, creating a relatively gentle image for the Holy Capital's residents..."
"So under the combined effect of these two factors, they naturally wouldn't fear openly discussing this matter."
"What Your Highness said... does seem very reasonable."
Caroline nodded with partial understanding.
"Mm, I think so too."
Adeline pushed up her glasses on her nose bridge and also nodded seriously.
Ileina's thoughts just now were similar to what she had guessed.
"Then... in that case, won't most of the Holy Kingdom's people, who are mostly believers in the Goddess Religion, mistake for Goddess Alesia!"
After hearing Ileina's analysis, Elashia beca sowhat anxious.
She didn't want to play goddess roleplay gas!
Her own ntality was completely incomparable to the goddess in mythology!
Speaking of maturity... her ntality from just graduating university in her previous life might not even match sixteen-year-old "Elashia"! Her ntality in this world was completely at a child's level!
This misunderstanding would not only bring her trouble, but also bring enormous trouble to Northern Fire!
Elashia said to Ileina with a panicked expression:
"This... should we go and imprint them again?"
"Anyway... people who have been imprinted once won't suffer such strong soul impact when imprinted again..."
"Hahaha... Elashia, you don't need to be so agitated."
Standing up and gently pressing Elashia back into her seat, exchanging a glance with the similarly smiling Adeline, Ileina smiled behind Elashia as she explained:
"Actually this is the best outco... from now on we just need to pretend we know nothing and normally do our own things."
"As for the specific reasons... let Minister Adeline explain this to you."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Adeline pushed her glasses again and smiled at Elashia:
"Actually... Northern Fire has been facing a quite fatal problem since its establishnt..."
"Northern Fire was established by our family, and our family... has certain special characteristics."
Putting on a serious expression, Adeline continued explaining:
"Unlike other great families of the Holy Kingdom, as the Holy Kingdom's historians, our family has passed down a custom that must be observed from our ancestors, generation after generation."
Looking at Elashia with a serious expression, Adeline said in a grave tone:
"That is—we cannot practice religion."
"No matter which mber of our family, even if not a historian, would be expelled from the family if they had even the slightest connection to the Goddess Religion."
"Huh?"
Elashia was stunned.
How could she, having played the ga, not know this?
Could it be that her transmigration changed sothing?
"This... although the Holy Kingdom advocates freedom of belief and won't force non-believers to believe in the Goddess Religion, but... the Goddess Religion is also the Holy Kingdom's state religion..."
"If an entire family forces clan mbers not to believe in the Goddess Religion, wouldn't that contradict the entire Holy Kingdom's ideals?"
"That's correct, Empress Elashia."
Adeline nodded.
"But successive Holy Queens have protected our family, and only those with our family bloodline can open the [Holy Kingdom History Books] for reading and recording."
"Moreover, the [Holy Kingdom History Books] is a treasure that requires two conditions to be t simultaneously—one must be a non-believer and must carry our family bloodline."
"So even though it contradicts the Holy Kingdom's ideals, our family's status has been stable from the Holy Kingdom's founding until now."
Speaking to this point, Adeline changed her tone.
"But... the problem lies here."
"When my parents established Northern Fire, because everyone in the family was a firm atheist, we maintained the principle from the beginning that religion could not enter Northern Fire, refusing to accept religious personnel into the Northern Fire organization."
"Although we don't oppose freedom of belief and respect Goddess faith, we also don't accept Goddess Religion believers joining Northern Fire..."
"This left a quite fatal problem—Northern Fire's appeal to Goddess Religion believers in the Holy Kingdom, where nearly half the population are believers, is severely insufficient."
"To solve this problem, we tried many thods... but except for Princess Ileina's previous proposal of 'faith doesn't need to go through the church,' basically all had minimal effect..."
"This problem actually wasn't serious before, because our focus was on military affairs, and half of the Holy Kingdom's non-religious population was actually sufficient for our recruitnt..."
"Combined with the Holy Court's perverse actions and Evelyn's repeated distortion of Goddess Religion doctrine, many religious people even turned to our side, so this matter never caused major problems before."
"But now that most of the Holy Kingdom has been liberated and we need to gain more popular support, the importance of this long-standing problem is no longer as small as before..."
Speaking to this point, Adeline smiled as she looked at Elashia, who was listening seriously to her words.
"However... just as the problem was about to explode, Miss 'Alesia' that the Goddess Religion believers worship descended from heaven to help us directly liberate the Holy Capital."
"So the problem was solved effortlessly."
