Chapter 455
“We must do something. We must make our fellow clansmen recognize the reality of the current situation…”
“Peace and kindness are virtues, but they alone cannot solve every problem!”
“We elves are without ambition, yet our civilization, by sole virtue of standing at the pinnacle, has become an obstacle to the ambitions of others…”
“The other races are progressing swiftly, and a race without ambition that continually yields will inevitably become a target in the end…”
These thoughts consumed Ouros.
He aspired to rise within the ranks of the Church of Nature to change the mindset of his fellow believers.
He hoped to awaken the elves and other elven halflings to the harsh realities of the outside world and inspire them to adopt a firmer mindset.
At the same time, he also wished for his people to cast aside their arrogance and acknowledge the growth and latent dangers posed by other races…
Yet, despite his extraordinary affinity with nature and a growth rate that astonished even the High Priest, Ouros was unable to pass the Church of Nature’s most basic priesthood exam.
