Chapter 183 What is Divine Power?



"You're inside my body, it won't have any effect on me, right?" Merlin remained alert, with a hint of uneasiness in his voice.

Selene frowned slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, and she thought to herself, do you think I am willing to stay in your body? She cleared her throat and said in a gentle tone, "Don't worry, my presence inside you will not have any effect on you. On the contrary, the divine power brought by the godhead will nourish your body and soul, and will do you no harm at all."

Merlin felt a little relieved after hearing this, but he still didn't let down his guard. "Then could you please stop prying into my thoughts?"

Selene readily agreed and nodded, as if to show her sincerity. Then she became very serious again, her eyes fixed on Merlin's face. "But I must tell you that what happened between us must never be known to others. I am very vulnerable now. If others knew that an ant like you actually possessed godhood, what would await you would be..."

As she spoke, Selene made a gesture of wiping her neck, with a sneer on her face.

Although Selene made vicious moves, she was in the form of a little loli and had no deterrent effect at all. Instead, she was a little funny.

Merlin was naturally aware of the interests involved, and his heart tightened. He knew that if the news leaked, he would be in irreparable danger.

At the same time, he felt a little regretful, as it would have been nice if he could have used Selene's identity. With her influence among the elves, she can definitely make all the elves work for her. With the support of the elves, she can also stop eating beef on a small scale.

"You inherit my moon magic, and your status in the elves is similar to that of a priest. It is not impossible for you to borrow the power of the elves." Selene's voice was filled with pride, as if she was proud of her identity.

After hearing this, Merlin pointed at her angrily and said, "Didn't I tell you not to pry into my mind?"

Selene stuck out her tongue, lying on the bed with her arms and legs spread out without a care in the world, and replied lazily, "I'll definitely do it next time."

Merlin thought to himself that this elven god would not be so honest.

"How much faith power do I have now? What kind of deal can I make with you?"

Selene waved her pink little hands, seeming to be a little disdainful. "Merlin, I have drained all your faith. I helped you recover, awakened the Eye of the God of War, and traded the Moon God Art. You don't have any extra faith left. If you want to trade with me, then collect faith as soon as possible."

Merlin felt dissatisfied, and felt that the Moon Goddess had betrayed him. Next time he wanted her to materialize the value of the power of faith before making the transaction. This is the only way to avoid being exploited by her at will.

Finally, Merlin asked a question he had always wanted to know: "What is divine power, and what is the fundamental difference between it and magic power?"

When the Moon Goddess heard this question, she smiled meaningfully and replied, "Divine power is the rule of this world. The biggest difference between divine power and magic power is that divine power can do everything!"

The Arcane Academy, a palace of magic academia that has always stood at the top of the Azer continent, has recently been mired in heavy gloom, and the situation has become extremely pessimistic.

Ever since the invasion of the evil cultists that occurred in the Monster Mountain Range that night, it had somehow spread as quickly as a plague, with no possibility of concealment.

The exposure of the incident in which Mr. Harold and the Student Union of the Arcane Academy specifically rescued aristocratic students was like a thunderclap, causing a storm in all walks of life.

For a time, the teaching staff of the Arcane Academy was subjected to a storm of questioning from people from all walks of life. The six generations of empires that controlled endless power and authority actually united to put pressure on the Arcane Academy.

It is true that according to the rules known to everyone, nobles, no matter where they are, enjoy privileges that are difficult for common people to achieve. The lives of ordinary people are like grass in their eyes, so how can they be compared with those of nobles? However, who would dare to openly speak of such blatant class differences?

Especially those in power, they know very well that for the stability of the empire, the civilians, who seem like ants, actually contain tremendous power that is terrifying.

The Arcane Academy has trained many powerful civilian magicians over the years. These magicians of ordinary origin have each established their own connections and power in the vast world of the Azer continent.

Although they are not noble, their influence should not be underestimated. They don't know where they got the news of this incident, but this group of magicians used their own energy to put pressure on the Arcane Academy, just to seek justice for those ordinary civilian students.

The nobles of the six empires were equally unwilling to be outdone. On the surface, they scolded and taught their own children a lesson, pretending to be selfless and strictly ordering them not to give any preferential treatment to the children. But secretly, they relied on their own intricate relationships and deep connections to constantly exert pressure on the Arcane Academy.

As nobles, they have an innate sense of superiority and will never allow their status to be challenged in the slightest. If they were really treated the same as civilians, it would undoubtedly be a great insult to their authority.

The Arcane Academy is like a rat in a bellows at this moment, being bullied from both ends. On the one hand, the pressure from the open was like a mountain pressing down on the college's head, making it hard for the college to breathe; on the other hand, the pressure lurking in the dark was like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, eerie and terrifying.

The Arcane Academy needed to maintain its reputation and preserve its authoritative status as the best magic academy in the continent of Aize, but the shocking financial deficit forced them to bow to the nobles. After all, the "education funds" generously sponsored by the nobles are still the key to keeping the academy running.

There is a clear rule in the continent of Aize that demigods are not allowed to participate in worldly affairs. As a result, this heavy pressure like a mountain fell entirely on Vice Principal Jenny and the teachers of the college.

Most of the teachers at the Arcane Academy have strong backing. They are well aware of the difficulty and complexity of this matter. No matter how it is handled, it will offend a huge force.

Therefore, no teacher was willing to take over this hot mess. As for Vice Principal Jenny, there are always big shots from all sides who can restrain her by various means, making it difficult for her to take a step forward and to do anything.

At this moment, inside the towering Mage Tower of the Arcane Academy, the atmosphere was heavy and depressing. Vice Principal Jenny and Yuna sat opposite each other. In front of them was a contract document that was so thick that it seemed to carry a heavy burden.
