Big Capitalist

Chapter 510 The Battle for Faith Begins!

Jessica looked at Stacy's determined expression and hesitated for a moment.

Although Staci has been recognized by the Moon Goddess, the prejudice against her half-elf identity is deep-rooted within the elves, and her path to becoming a saint may not be smooth.

She pondered how to balance all parties, respecting the Moon Goddess's choice while calming the emotions within the tribe.

Of course, as a supporter of the theory of bloodline, Jessica naturally did not want Stacy to serve as the Moon Saint, but her position and vision prevented her from opposing it so superficially.

The atmosphere in the hall of the Moon Temple was tense and solemn. The Moon Priest stood in front and said to Pope Jessica in a firm voice: "Your Highness, although the Moon God has recognized Stacy's qualifications to be the Saint, this does not mean that she can only be the Saint."

The other elves echoed and murmured, and the air was filled with dissatisfaction.

"We believe that Alicia is still more qualified to be the Moon Saint than Stacy." The Moon Priest continued, with a strong prejudice in his eyes.

Pope Jessica frowned slightly. Although she naturally supported Alicia, she also realized that things were not that simple.

She turned to Merlin and Elsa, and said hesitantly, "The two high priests of the moon have also seen that I and the church believe that Alicia is qualified to be the saint. What do you think?"

At this moment, Alicia pushed open the door of the hall and walked in with confident steps.

She walked gracefully to Stacy's side and bowed to Pope Jessica, Merlin and Elsa, with a determined look in her eyes.

"I heard about what happened in the Moon Temple," she began, her voice clear and loud, "I also want to be the Moon Saint. In that case, let the Moon God decide."

Her eyes were firm and she looked at everyone in the hall without fear.

Then she made a prayer gesture, clasping her hands together as if to call upon the Moon Goddess to come.

Alicia thought that since Stacy could get the Moon Goddess's approval through prayer, then I, as a high elf with ancestral blood, could naturally do it too!

Merlin watched from the side, shaking his head inwardly.

He felt that Alicia was wasting her time, after all, the Moon Goddess she was praying to was standing next to him.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.

The light of the moon goddess descended again, and the bright moonlight shone through the dome onto Alicia's body, like a layer of sacred light.

This scene made Pope Jessica and other elves excited and thrilled, as if it indicated that Alicia had also been recognized by the Moon Goddess.

"Alicia, congratulations," Pope Jessica breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of mixed emotions in her tone, "It seems that you, like Stacy, have been recognized by the Moon Goddess."

Alicia smiled slightly, and her eyes swept across everyone in the hall with determination, as if declaring her determination.

She turned to Stacy, her eyes revealing a spark of competition: "Stacy, we all want to become the Moon Saint, and the final choice will be decided by the Moon Goddess."

Stacy felt nervous and uneasy in her heart, she knew that the opponent in front of her was not simple.

She recalled her mother's words and secretly encouraged herself in her heart that even though she was a half-elf, she also had the right to pursue her dreams.

Merlin looked at the scene in front of him in shock. He lowered his head and looked at the Moon Goddess with an expression of "what are you doing?" on his face.

Moon Goddess Selene rolled her eyes and said, "Please, I am the Moon Goddess of the elves. I have given you enough face by allowing Stacie to have the qualifications of a saint. Naturally, I also have to consider my race. Alicia is a very good girl. She has noble blood and even has the signs of awakening divine blood. I think it is also good for her to be the saint of the Moon Temple."

Merlin glared and threatened in his heart, "You don't want the power of faith anymore!"

The Moon Goddess Selene snorted, "I did this because I wanted the power of faith!"

What do you mean? Merlin was stunned.

In an instant, the minds of everyone in the Moon Temple seemed to be invaded by a gentle yet unquestionable force, and they all received the majestic and mysterious oracle of the Moon Goddess.

Merlin was trying to comfort Stacy, but when he heard the oracle, his expression suddenly became extremely strange.

He turned around and glared at Selene beside him, cursing in his heart, "So this guy actually had such a devilish idea!"

Pope Jessica rubbed her brows slowly. She glanced at everyone present, and from their different expressions, she knew that everyone had received the oracle from Lord Moon God.

Then, she said calmly with an unquestionable dignity, "Lord Moon God has given us clear instructions. He acknowledges that both Stacy and Alicia are qualified to become Moon Saints..."

Pope Jessica paused for a moment, her eyes sharpened, and she raised her voice and said, "But there is only one seat for the Saint, and it will be chosen between Stacy and Alicia. And the criterion for this choice is - who can bring more powerful faith power to Lord Moon God!"

That's right, it's the power of faith! In the next year, Stacy and Alicia will start a fierce battle for faith. Whoever gives the Moon God a stronger power of faith will be crowned the new Moon Saint!

Pope Jessica stood up solemnly and announced in a firm voice: "From today on, the battle of faith between Stacy and Alicia officially begins! By this time next year, whoever offers the most power of faith to the Moon Goddess will be the worthy Saint of the Moon!"

Merlin looked down at Selene, who was hugging his thighs, with tears in her eyes and looking at him pitifully. His face instantly turned as dark as ink.

He knew in his heart that Selene had completely tricked him! But now that things had come to this, what else could he do?

Merlin sighed deeply, and then his eyes became determined.

Humph, isn’t it just a competition to collect the power of faith? For him, this is not a difficult task at all!

In his heart, he has already determined that the title of the Moon Saint must belong to Stacy!

He swore secretly in his heart: "No one can change what I said!"

In Andalia, the holy city of the Forest of Elves, a piece of news was like a bombshell, instantly detonating the entire tribe.

That was the announcement of the candidate for the Holy Maiden of the Moon Temple. At the same time, the instructions of Lord Moon and related matters of the battle for faith were also made public.

In an instant, the entire elf community was in uproar. The impact of the news even shocked the foreign guests who came to visit. They did not expect to encounter such a shocking piece of news.
