Chapter 5: The Sole Sacrifice

Isn't that impressive? Qin Jian was somewhat surprised. In his original thoughts, there might not be many priests, but there should be at least several dozen. However, upon hearing Monica's account, he learned that among the generation of elves, only one person could become a priest.

What is your name? Qin Jian asked

"It's nothing, you are very beautiful!" Qin Jian's old face showed no trace of blush.

If one wishes to return, it is not necessarily impossible. Since the summoning technique can bring oneself here, there must be other methods to send oneself back; it is just that they have not been discovered yet.

I am wondering how I can make you stop crying! Qin Jian did not feel any estrangement from the girl despite their first meeting. Perhaps it was due to the divine invocation, but instead, he felt a sense of familiarity. He reached out his hand to wipe away the tears on the girl's cheek

"So... Qin Jian, where do you come from? Is it a distant human realm?" The girl still felt a bit uncomfortable with this awkwardly pronounced name.

After a considerable amount of time, the girl finally stopped sobbing. The moment she lifted her head, Qin Jian's heart nearly shattered

The girl's eyes, resembling peaches, were filled with a sense of guilt, and she did not even dare to look herself in the eye. Her tightly curled-up body trembled slightly, evoking immense pity in those who beheld her

"Qin Jian..." the girl murmured to herself, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, "It's a rather strange name"

However, the trace of admiration in the girl's eyes made Qin Jian feel a bit carried away with pride

"By the way, you kept mentioning sacrifices earlier; what exactly is that?" Qin Jian scratched his head, feeling that the events he encountered today were more numerous than all he had seen during his time as a wanderer.

The Elf clan is also divided into numerous tribes. When the elder priest is about to pass away, he will return his powers to the Moon God, and no one knows when or in which tribe the next priest will emerge. This is all the will of the Moon God

My name is Qin Jian! Young Master Qin was momentarily lost in thought, but soon regained his composure

The leader? Qin Jian couldn't help but chuckle in disbelief, not expecting to see a figure of such high rank the moment he opened his eyes

Hehe, that's just the way I am! Qin Jian touched his nose

This god is really stingy! Qin Jian muttered quietly to himself, not daring to let the girl hear.

It should be... right? Qin Jian was also somewhat at a loss, completely unsure of how to start the conversation with the library.

Haven't you already successfully used the prayer technique now

Since the sacrificial rites are so important, why not have a few more! The ignorant Qin Jian, like a blind person, shouted at the players fighting for the ball: "What a trivial matter, can't each person just have a ball?"

Moreover, among each generation of spirits, only one person is qualified to become the priestess The girl was extremely proud

Thank you! The girl is very reserved and also quite shy. Qin Jian cannot understand how a girl who is so enchanting can have such a completely different personality. If she were truly the type of promiscuous woman, Qin Jian could muster the courage, but with the girl being this way, he simply cannot bring himself to act!

Although it is remarkable, the ritual also carries corresponding responsibilities Monica did not continue to entangle herself with Qin Jian

Yes... the girl nodded slightly, "A thrilling dream!"

It must be admitted that this beautiful woman possesses an unparalleled charm in every frown and smile. For a moment, Qin Jian's eyes widened in astonishment. Moreover, the girl's voice is so melodious, soft and gentle, that it evokes a warm feeling flowing within one's heart

Qin Jian turned his head and suddenly realized that his appearance at https://www.hetushu.com was causing the girl a bit of distress

What? The girl tilted her head, looking at Qin Jian with a curious expression, revealing a sense of confusion.

Monica! The girl slowly let go, a smile appearing on her face, with two enchanting dimples emerging on her fair cheeks. Her flushed eyes added to her captivating charm.

Rituals are the pride of the Elven clan, serving as the guiding light for the development of the Elven people! Monica's face once again radiated with brilliance

Ah, truly beautiful! If this were in the past, I would have found a way to take you down long ago. Qin Jian muttered to himself, using his own language, since you wouldn't understand anyway

Why? Haven't you already used the prayer technique? Qin Jian was somewhat confused; politics is indeed very troublesome

It cannot be considered a success! The girl's expression showed a hint of embarrassment. According to previous records, the summoning ritual would only call forth elemental spirits, but this time...

What are you thinking about?" the girl asked as she noticed Qin Jian lost in thought.

Monica slowly shook her head, looking at Qin Jian with a wry smile: "Whether I can successfully be crowned still depends on returning to the clan to find out"

So it turns out to be a charlatan! Qin Jian thought to himself. He had never really believed in the deity of books, but on Earth, every institution and every country needs a spiritual pillar to stabilize the hearts of the people

To be honest, if it were not for the various dangers that fill this world, Qin Jian would be very willing to stay here, after all, this is a novel and unknown world

Qin Jian chuckled twice, the magician... who knows how magic is produced

Those illusory things are merely derivatives of politics

Then you must be a great magician The girl's eyes lit up, and she expressed her sincere admiration

Crimson immediately spread across the girl's slender neck

"That is not what I meant." Monica slowly shook her head, "The Elven race has its own queen whom they revere, as well as a council of elders, while the priest is responsible for conveying the will of the Moon Goddess and showcasing her brilliance to the people."

The Moon Goddess can only have one spokesperson forever! Monica's expression became serious; whenever the Moon Goddess was mentioned, she would always be extremely solemn

After comforting for a while, Qin Jian felt helpless

Things are not as simple as you imagine Monica sighed slightly Although each priest has only one person there are many candidates for the priesthood Take my clan for example there are more than a dozen candidates Only when a candidate receives the Dawn of the Moon Goddess and successfully uses the Divine Invocation can they truly qualify to inherit the position of priest

"... you, why are you so ..." The girl's skin, as thin as a cicada's wing, made it difficult for her to continue. However, her face instantly turned crimson, and with her captivating eyes, she shot a fierce glare at Qin Jian, nearly stealing away the young master's heart.

It is now clear, you are the sacrifice! Qin Jian looked at the girl, shivering from the cold, feeling a pang of sympathy.

The victim herself did not cry, yet this girl is crying incessantly. Indeed, women are made of water

The large hand continuously soothed the girl's back, and Qin Jian couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

Magic can create countless miracles... Unfortunately, only the priests or priest candidates of the elven race are able to wield advanced wood magic. " As Monica spoke, her gaze dimmed somewhat

Perhaps this is how all fairies are

Young Master Qin was very concerned that she might sob so hard that she would be unable to catch her breath

Fairy! This is no longer a sprite, it is definitely a fairy

The girl not only did not restrain her cries, but instead cried even louder.

It felt just like a dream... Qin Jian was filled with emotions as he turned to glance at the gorilla, which remained in that sitting posture, completely still
