Therefore, Elina must make these nobles pay the price.
"Let's leave here tomorrow. I really don't want to stay in this dirty and bloated city for another day."
Elina whispered as she looked at the snowflakes falling outside the window.
After this heavy snowfall, the whole Tara will become a world of snowflakes, pure white and covered in silver.
This snow will bring a touch of lovely and flawless temperament to the solemn and majestic city of Tara.
But Elena knew that beneath this cuteness and solemnity was a dirty heart.
She began to miss Dee Village, Dunbarton College, and Yass City.
So, as soon as things here were over, Elena decided to leave immediately. She didn't want to stay even for a second longer.
······
The pamphlets distributed by Lamia soon caused an uproar.
Many of them even died of excessive grief after seeing their own daughters on the list of victims.
When the people around saw this tragic scene, their anger grew stronger and stronger, and their anger towards the nobles gradually rose from individuals to the whole family.
It didn't take long for this anger to turn into citizens' reflection on the injustice of the current situation.
This change made all the nobles in Tara feel insecure.
Even Philip began to get restless.
Because he found that the people at the bottom of society, whom he had never cared about before, were actually starting to point their fingers at him.
When an emperor loses the support of the nobles, it is very dangerous, but it can still be saved.
However, when an emperor loses the support of the general public, it is almost a hopeless situation.
Even if he possesses the powerful strength of a demigod, he cannot kill everyone. If these most ordinary people are gone, then what is the point of him being an emperor?
Therefore, under this extreme sense of crisis, Philip issued dozens of orders in a row.
He ordered all the nobles to immediately conduct a self-examination of their families and to catch those unforgivable beasts and execute them in public.
At the same time, he severely fined those big families a large sum of money, distributed the money to all the families who were victimized this time, and also improved the welfare system for the citizens.
Not only that, Philip also issued a series of decrees to suppress the nobility and protect the workers, and he also sent out the most elite inspection team around him to conduct secret inspections of all the nobles.
Since that day, the whole of Tara became lively, with new nobles being dragged out and executed every day.
This group of guys are usually arrogant and domineering. When they do evil things, they never think about the aftermath at all, so it is very easy to investigate them at will.
In addition, the citizens were very cooperative in their hatred of the nobles, so it was very easy to catch those parasites.
This time, Philip really used thundering means without showing any mercy, because he knew that compared to offending the nobles, completely losing the support of the people was the most dangerous thing.
After Philip's series of attacks, the public anger in Tara was suppressed. At least the atmosphere of impending storm finally disappeared.
By the time this process was completed, Alina had already returned to Dunbarton College, and she had even begun preparing for the second semester.
"Victoria, your father is really smart. This way, the people's hatred for the nobles will be transformed into gratitude and love for him. This move not only suppresses the nobles, but also improves his own prestige. He is indeed a politician."
Alina looked at the newspaper in her hand and couldn't help but shook her head and smiled.
When she left, she exposed the cannibalism incident thoroughly in order to punish those nobles, but she did not expect that Philip would be able to seize the opportunity in this crisis and strengthen his power instead.
"Teacher Elina, please forgive me for being blunt, but Father's move can only temporarily ease the tense atmosphere. The fundamental conflict between the nobles and the common people has not been resolved."
Victoria, who had been standing aside, shook her head after hearing what Elena said.
"Oh? Do you have any better method?"
After hearing what Victoria said, Elena became interested.
After all, if nothing unexpected happens, Victoria will become the new emperor of the empire. She really wants to know what this girl is thinking now.
"I'm sorry, I don't have a better solution right now, but I think the root of all these conflicts is that the nobles have too much power and lack supervision. As long as this problem can be solved, I think some of the conflicts can be resolved."
Victoria frowned and pondered for a long time, and finally could only shake her head. After all, she was only in her teens and had not been thoroughly exposed to politics. It was very good for her to have such insights.
In fact, if Elina had not been standing at the height of thousands of years of Earth's history, she would not have such a keen insight.
"Well, it's good that you can see this now, Victoria. I believe that you will be able to become a qualified emperor in the future."
Elina smiled and nodded, then stretched her body and said lazily:
"Well, it's getting late. I don't have anything to do here anymore. Go and get some rest."
"Yes, Teacher Elina."
Victoria bowed and stepped back.
Looking at the wooden door that Victoria was slowly closing, Elena thought in her heart that perhaps, she could let this girl train in Yas City first.
(I am asking for monthly tickets during the holidays, thank you everyone.)
Chapter 13: Is it okay to just use a title?
Elina's actions in Tara spread throughout the human race in less than a week.
For a moment, all the nobles restrained themselves a lot, for fear that they would be bumped into by the emperor who was in a rage at the moment. That would be really bad luck.
As the nobles restrained themselves, the lives of the common people immediately became much better. In addition, a series of policies introduced by Philip made the common people, who had suffered oppression and exploitation for many years, extremely grateful for the grace of His Majesty the Emperor.
Of course, there is one more legend about Elina on this continent.
"Haha, I never thought that such a serious incident would happen within the Wang Quan faction. After this internal conflict, this group of people will no longer be qualified to compete with us."
Naturally, everything that happened in Tara was also reported to Tadin. The high priest received the information at the first time and couldn't help but sneer.
"Do you really think so?"
After hearing the words of the high priest, the chief justice, who was sitting opposite him in a black judging uniform, looked at him solemnly.
"What? Philip's action has angered the public. The nobles from all sides are now dissatisfied with him. In other words, cracks have appeared within them. In this case, is it possible for them to defeat us?"
In response to the Chief Justice's question, the High Priest smiled slightly, thinking that the Chief Justice was overthinking.
"Yes, they seem to have serious internal friction and extremely sharp internal conflicts now, but have you ever thought about the future? Didn't you see the series of policies that Philip introduced later? Although his move offended the nobles, he won the hearts of the people. Moreover, after this blow, the power of the nobles has greatly declined, and the royal power has been unprecedentedly enhanced. Under this circumstance, I am not so optimistic about the future."
The Chief Justice sneered, he was disdainful of the High Priest's slow understanding of politics.
The most important thing in their struggle for theocracy and royal power is the struggle for ordinary people.
Because nobles are naturally bound to royal power, and those who come from church families are naturally bound to divine power.
Only the civilians, those who are extremely ordinary but make up the largest population of human beings, are the key to victory.
Although these commoners do not have any outstanding qualities when taken individually, whether in terms of talent, strategy, knowledge or wisdom, they are far inferior to the carefully trained children of nobles and theocracy.
However, the number of civilians is so huge that 60% of geniuses in human history come from civilians.
This is how quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
Therefore, if theocracy wants to win this battle, what it needs most is the support of the common people.
But at this moment, Philip was obviously one step ahead and turned a crisis that could have even shaken his throne into an opportunity in his favor.
However, theocracy had not made any move in this regard, which made him very worried.
"Haha, you're worrying too much. What role can those worthless commoners play? In the end, it will still depend on the nobles and the bishops."
In response to the Chief Justice's statement, the High Priest said that he was worrying too much.
"Otega, what do you think?"
The high priest said this, turning his head slightly and throwing the question to the Crusader Legion Commander who was sitting beside him, wearing a sacred pure white heavy armor and drinking by himself.
"Don't ask me. I'm just a soldier. I'm only responsible for military issues. I'm not interested in your stuff."
After saying this expressionlessly, Otega stopped talking and continued to drink his tea.
"What a boring guy."
Seeing Otega's attitude, the high priest spread his hands helplessly and said nothing more.
Speaking of which, they came to the temple today to report to His Holiness the Pope, so how come they haven’t seen anyone from His Holiness the Pope yet?
The high priest thought with some curiosity.
They would not know that the Pope, whom they have never seen, is in the basement under their feet.
"Have the infidels, remnants, and spies been eliminated?"
In the dark basement, the Pope was sitting in his rocking chair, looking at Lobias who was half-kneeling in front of him, and spoke softly.
"Your Majesty, we have cleared 60 percent of all the places you marked. The remaining places should be completely cleared within the next two months."
Lobeias bowed her head deeply and reported respectfully.
"Well, speed up and complete the task before the specified time."
After listening to Lobeias' report, His Holiness the Pope nodded and disappeared directly into the basement.
"Yes!"
Even though His Holiness the Pope had already left, Lobeias still nodded respectfully in agreement.
In the coming period of time, the Crusaders and the cardinals will cooperate with her more closely to complete the cleanup thoroughly.
As long as you complete the cleaning, you will be one step closer to that world, that ideal and beautiful world!
Thinking of this, Lobeas stood up from the ground, straightened her back again, and walked out like a javelin.
······
"Elina, look, you caused quite a stir in Tara a few days ago. Now even the nobles of the entire human race are cowering in fear because of you. It seems that your massacre in Tara that day really scared them."
In the dean's office of Dunbarton College, Dean Myron smiled and threw the newspaper on the desk.
This newspaper records the changes in nobles in various places, as well as many comments on Elena by the contributors.
These reviews are mixed.
Some people say that Elena's action upheld justice and protected the weak, and it was a righteous act.
But some people also say that Elena ignored the imperial power and treated His Majesty the Emperor as a decoration, which is a truly heinous crime.
All in all, there are all kinds of comments, with mixed reviews.
However, Alina never paid any attention to these comments.
After all, those who slandered her were most likely hired by the nobles. She had affected the interests of so many people this time, so naturally they would be disgusted by her.
Elina never took these to heart.
"Why, is Dean Myron also interested in this matter?"
Elina picked up the newspaper, took a look at it, then threw it back with a smile.
"I am not interested in the affairs of the nobility. I am only interested in the affairs of the academy. Tell me, are you here for the academy you are planning to set up in Yas City?"
After hearing what Elena said, Dean Myron smiled and shook his head. He was too lazy to care about the entanglement between royal power and divine power. It was useless to care about it. It would be better for him to focus all his energy on the affairs of the academy.
Dean Myron's sudden words made Elina stunned for a moment.
She didn't expect that Dean Myron knew it so clearly.
"No, that's not the case. I just came here to see you. I don't have any other purpose."
After being stunned for a moment, Elina immediately used her usual trick.
"Don't give me that. You are a girl who comes here for no reason. I've heard about your city of Yas a long time ago. It's now vigorously planning to build an academy. The three unlucky Sword Saints are still serving as instructors there. How could I not know what you want to do?"
Looking at Elina who was acting coquettishly towards him, Dean Myron took a sip of tea and scolded with a smile.
"Ah this..."
Elina didn't expect that the dean knew so much about the college in Yas City.
"I also heard that you seem to have an ambition to create a comprehensive college that is no less comprehensive than Dunbaron College, right?"
“You know all this…”
Elina groaned somewhat helplessly.
"You should be more careful. Your city of Yas is now almost completely transparent to everyone. I got all this information just by asking casually. I think if I use some tricks, your city may no longer be a secret to me."
As he spoke, Dean Myron also gave Alina a heads-up.
