The imperial capital, Tianya City.

The Civic Square is crowded with people, and the center of the crowd is a stage decorated with various flowers and precious stones. Those eye-catching gems are mixed with sound and light gems. These gems can record the images and sounds on the stage in real time, and broadcast them all over the country through the communication center of the empire.

Near the stage, there is a special invitation seat guarded by heavy guards, occupying the best viewing area on the stage. Sitting there were high-ranking nobles and church members above the level of priests.

This is an unprecedented grand event, and it is the scene of the election of the first saintess of the Moonsong Church. The Moonsong Church originally did not have the position of a saint, but with the reunification of the mainland, the conflict of interests between the aristocratic group represented by the Yulong clan royal family and the sacred Moonsong Church has intensified. After a lot of open and secret fighting, both parties took a step back and jointly launched the post of saint. First nominated by nobles in various regions, and finally appointed by the church after a referendum.

Choosing to use this method to select the saintess makes the position of the saints naturally have the duty of balancing the interests of the nobility, the church, and the general public. The official duties of the empire and the church publicly entrusted to the saint are: to serve as a beacon to guide everyone, and at the same time as an idol for the whole people.

After a short period of darkness, the lights on the stage suddenly turned on, and another candidate for the saint came out from behind the scenes. The spotlight hit her body, moving with her light and graceful steps. Under the light, her long hair was like a black waterfall, flowing smoothly. A star hairpin is used to separate a small strand of hair on both sides of the temple, which adds a bit of cuteness. His skin was like frost and snow on a high mountain, with a touch of rosy bloom from the plum blossom. The color of the lips was like fresh blood falling on the snow, with a hint of coquettishness. She was wearing a white dress with moon patterns, revealing her white and round fragrant shoulders, making her look sexy yet holy.

"Good evening, everyone. I am the No. 6 saintess candidate, Lilian from Xingyuan City in the northern province. I am really happy to meet everyone on such a big stage. I wonder if everyone has the same mood?

Now is the year 1820 of the Revelation Calendar, which is the 21st year of the unification of the Central United Empire. As an aristocrat, I am a member of the management class of this society, although it is a bit boastful to say this. But the current empire: material affluence, technological progress, social stability, everyone has faith, and no one suffers from the haze of war.

For all of this, we are firstly grateful to our great emperor—His Majesty Lan Ting, who finally ended the protracted unification war; Finally, we must thank ourselves and every citizen of the empire. It is your every effort for this society that makes us prosperous now.

So here, I would like to ask you a question: I wonder if you are satisfied with the current society?

As a member of the nobility, I am deeply proud of these achievements of the Central United Empire. This country existed before I was born; so I hope that after my death it will continue to exist, still so rich and prosperous, enlightened and progressive. I love my country, and because of that, I still have some dissatisfaction with our present society.

As you can see, I am a vampire. I don't know what is your impression of vampire species? We have black eyes and red pupils that most people think are terrible (Lilian opened her eyes wide, and the red vertical pupils glanced left and right), and sharp saw-like teeth. (grins, showing his teeth). It is very in line with the image of the devil in ancient legends. At the same time, the vampire species is also the race closest to the unsigned species, that is, the existence known as the "clan abandoned by the gods".

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

As we all know, my father is the Duke of Xingyuan City, and he also has a nickname, Grand Duke of Evil Vampire. Therefore, even among the nobles, I am considered a noble family. However, due to the sparse population of vampire species, my childhood was very lonely and I lacked playmates of the same age. Even if some people are in awe of the reputation of Grand Duke Evil Vampire, their children don't appreciate it. They ran away from me crying and saying don't play with the devil.

That's right, I experienced this kind of childhood.

I say this not to hope that everyone will pity me, but to tell everyone a fact: Even the Duke's daughter will also face discrimination from foreign exiles.

Although we are all called human beings, in fact, we are divided into many characteristic races. Some races are born strong and some races are born weak. Some races are born with scales; others are born with sharp teeth and fangs. Some races are born ugly, while others are born beautiful. Thinking about it seriously, we are so different and different, how did we become unified into the group of "human beings"?

Maybe everyone thinks that foreign discrimination is not a big deal. Because we have been here for thousands of years. But think about it carefully, how have human beings lived for thousands of years? War, aggression, enslavement, exploitation, these words make every person with the lowest morality and conscience feel ashamed, but they have never left the history of mankind for a moment.

Our society is actually built on dangerous eggs. Exogenous discrimination represents the barriers between races, the division of human beings as a whole, and even means that they never treat each other as "human beings" in the same way.

If it weren't for the "Moon Chanting Book" to tell us, the world's four major human races—the scale species with the strongest average individual strength, the most agile feather species, the beast species with the most branches, and the vampire species with the smallest population are all human beings, all Descendants of fifty saints. We may even regard each other as incomparable aliens forever because of differences in external characteristics, and we will always fight and fight with each other.

Not to mention the "Clan Abandoned by God" that is not even mentioned in the "Moon Chanting Canon" - Wuzheng. Are they part of us and how will we treat them?

The fact is that different races do not have reproductive isolation in the biological sense. All races, including the unspecified species, are part of humanity. Some are just artificial isolations on the grounds of 'pure blood'.

Moreover, some church researchers found clues in the "Covenant" volume of "Moonchant", which shows that the appearance of human beings at the beginning may be the appearance of the unsigned species.

Human beings have stepped out of the endless chaos and struggled to survive in the barrenness. The pursuit of force seems to be a kind of truth and a kind of justice. And between different races, the distinction between strength, weakness, beauty and ugliness exists objectively, and is directly affected by the genetic inheritance of the race. If given a choice, I believe that most people hope that they can be 'strong' and 'beautiful'.

However, in order to survive, humans not only grew sharp claws and fangs, but also soft lips and tongues, fragile eyes, and soft hair.

Our 'strong' should not be used to harm our own kind, but should be used to protect. The strong should not live by bullying the weak, and the weak should not live by giving mercy.

The beautiful society in my mind never has only one strength, one voice, and one color. The 'weak' also have the right to exist, they can also make a voice, and have the color of the weak.

A tall and solid wall and an egg hitting the wall, I am willing to stand by the egg.

At the beginning, we talked about discrimination against foreign extremists, and the topic seemed to be a bit off topic. But what I want to say is actually the same thing - respect for differences and acceptance of the weak. That's why our country is called the Central United Empire, not the Light Feather Empire or the Ironscale Empire, isn't it?

I'm Lilian, I hope you can support me. Join me in making a difference in this world.

thank you all! "

Applause slowly erupted from the audience, spreading little by little, and finally thunderous applause.

"Next is the song and dance show time. What I bring to you is the folk song "Above the Starry Sky" circulating in our Xingyuan City area. I hope you will like it."

The applause fell silent, and the beautiful and calm prelude sounded immediately. Lilian stepped on the beat and spoke slowly... Her singing voice was sweet and melodious, telling the long legends above the starry sky thousands of years ago, and continued to sing under the starry sky.
