How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 351 : Wanting to Go Pray for Blessings
The day before the Star Rhythm Festival, Ileina, who had already completed band rehearsals and her work at hand, walked with Elashia through the comrcial district of the Holy Capital, observing.
"The Holy Capital... it seems like it's completely recovered?"
Looking at the bustling crowds on the comrcial street, Elashia couldn't help but think of the prosperous Radiant Emperor City.
Although the war had caused extrely severe trauma to the Holy Kingdom, at this mont the Holy Capital appeared no different from a normal city.
People crowded into the Holy Capital's comrcial district, their faces bearing smiles and hurry as they went to various shops to buy things needed for the festival.
The bustling crowds carried in their hands snacks, toys, and many other things that were completely different from the style of the past.
This crowded scene made Elashia feel as if this city had already erged from the shadow of war...
Looking at Ileina beside her with a satisfied smile, Elashia said:
"Lena, it seems your work has indeed been done perfectly..."
"Although I don't understand politics, since people are willing to spend their money on these things that aren't directly related to survival, it shows that their standard of living has been greatly improved."
Hearing Elashia's praise, Ileina just smiled and shook her head.
"What are you saying... We were clearly only able to improve the Holy Capital this much in such a short ti because of Little Shia's strong resource support."
Grasping Elashia's fair and tender jade hand tightly, Ileina pressed close to Elashia's side and said gently:
"Neither everyone in Northern Fire nor I, not even the Blood Clan and the Holy Court, no one in the Holy Kingdom guessed that the situation would develop like this..."
"Originally I thought we would only be able to save the Holy Kingdom from the enslavent of the Blood Clan and Holy Court by paying a price beyond ordinary imagination... and the work of restoring people's livelihoods afterwards would also be fraught with difficulties..."
"Having fought for so many years, with the blood moon hanging over the Holy Kingdom for so long, just the problem of seeds alone would be enough to worry us to death..."
Looking at Elashia's slightly shy erald eyes, Ileina smiled and said:
"Who could have thought that Little Shia, you would suddenly appear at this ti with Elasia's knights descending from heaven like divine soldiers..."
"So... this is also the reason the Holy Capital was able to restore order so quickly."
Looking at the bustling crowds on the comrcial street, Ileina said with emotion:
"Actually... the changes we truly accomplished aren't that many..."
"Although the Holy Capital's food and security problems have been resolved, the trauma that war brought to the Holy Kingdom isn't sothing that can be solved in just this short month..."
"After all... the destruction that war brings to a country isn't sothing we can asure with money and data..."
Ileina was halfway through her words when two n walked past them.
One of the n said to his companion with joy on his face:
"Ah! Thank goodness we held out until now!"
"Once Northern Fire defeats the Blood Clan, our lives can return to how they were when we were children!"
His companion nodded.
"Yes... I really didn't expect Northern Fire to be able to fulfill their promises made when entering the city so quickly..."
"It seems we really underestimated their capabilities..."
...
"Little Shia, did you hear that?"
Ileina looked at Elashia tenderly and said:
"You know, in my opinion, the damage that years of accumulated war inflicts on people's hearts is the greatest."
"Citizens who fear war will strike again wouldn't dare cooperate with us out of fear of being liquidated by the Holy Court."
"But... under your strong resource support, we used achievents that ordinary people simply couldn't imagine to reverse the perceptions in many citizens' hearts."
"After the citizens continuously experienced the process from doubting to recognizing Northern Fire, they naturally developed a thought—Northern Fire is fundantally different from the Holy Court, we can fulfill all our promises to the people."
"Even if this promise seems impossible from common sense, as long as it cos from our official departnts, it will definitely be completed."
"In my view, this is the greatest help Little Shia has given to our Northern Fire..."
"You made the people of the Holy Kingdom establish absolute confidence in us, and also made the soldiers completely firm their fighting beliefs in their hearts..."
"Alright, alright... don't say such embarrassing things..."
Elashia, whose face had turned completely red from Ileina's words, gently pushed Ileina.
"We've finished looking around the comrcial district, is there anything you want to do next?"
"Well..."
Ileina's bright azure eyes, full of spirit, turned around, and she said to Elashia:
"I... want to go to the church to pray for blessings, is that okay..."
"Ah?!"
Elashia was stunned by Ileina's words.
"No... you... you're the leader of Northern Fire... what are we going to the church for?"
You have to know, Northern Fire was an organization that strictly rejected the combination of religion and politics, not even allowing people with faith to enter the organization...
"Hey... what's wrong with that..."
Ileina, whose face had turned a bit red from Elashia's reaction, quietly defended herself:
"I... just want so psychological comfort."
"I also know that I'm the leader of Northern Fire, so I can't get involved with the church..."
"That's why I only dare to go now when you've helped disguise myself..."
Looking at Ileina with a blush on her small face, Elashia thought for a mont and asked:
"But... what are we going there for?"
Ileina put on a serious expression and said:
"Although our Northern Fire is an organization that rejects religious power, nearly half of the Holy Kingdom's people are believers!"
"Although we've reford the church's power to a certain extent, stripping away all of the church's educational rights, military power, and political power, the church can still represent many people of the Holy Kingdom!"
"And... as the core weapon that unified people's thoughts in the Holy Kingdom in the past, church forces aren't actually as bad as your Elasia royal family thinks..."
"I know..."
Hearing this from Ileina, Elashia nodded nostalgically.
"If it weren't for the small church in Radiant Emperor City giving us dicine back then, we probably would have died long ago..."
In Elasia, although Goddess Religion wasn't as popular as in the Holy Kingdom and didn't receive official recognition, it still had a certain amount of power.
Although evangelism and the scale of church personnel were strictly limited by the Elasia governnt, the Goddess Religion believers in Elasia had indeed done quite a few good deeds.
This was the reason why the Elasia governnt, while being wary of Goddess Religion, didn't engage in violent suppression and prohibition.
If it weren't for Elashia successfully obtaining dicine to cure Ileina from the church back then, they probably would have died in that winter in Radiant Emperor City...
"Sigh... alright, stop explaining."
Elashia could understand Ileina's desire to go to the church to pray for blessings.
After all, before transmigrating, she would also pray to Confucius before exams...
Looking at Ileina with a red face defending herself, Elashia nodded.
"Since Lena wants to go, then let's go."
