Chapter 451 The God of Injustice
This is an unabashed compliment.
But Annan just sighed.
"...Did you come here specially to help me?"
Facing Annan's question, Sir Silver just smiled and did not answer.
Sir Silver helped Annan put his neckline back, adjusted his clothes, and said slowly, "Maybe, I'm just here to help you mend your clothes. Otherwise, it's not very decent to appear in front of those children like this.
"Three Sirens can transform with you...but not your clothes.
"When you have time, you can go to Jawon. If Jawon signs your clothes, then you won't have to worry about unromantic things like 'lack of clothes to wear after transformation'."
Sir Silver even made a joke about Annan when he had time.
But Annan knew in his heart...
This time, Sir Silver was not born from the light—in other words, Sir Silver was not teleported, but had been quietly following Annan since just now.
So just after Annan defeated Nicholas, he immediately jumped out and helped Annan with psychological counseling, eliminating the problem at the very beginning.
As Sir Silver just said, "Don't let doubts breed suspicions and misunderstandings."
Just like what Nicholas's memories showed in the past, at the very beginning, Nicholas was just a gloomy teenager with a little autism and few friends.
Nicholas would not feel "abandoned" if his father had paid a little more attention to him and showed his concern for him instead of quietly finding Isaac as his adoptive father, Nicholas wanted to prove Your own desire to win will not be so strong;
If among his classmates, there happens to be a classmate who is as cheerful, enthusiastic, positive, and good at talking as the protagonist of a hot-blooded manga, and he wants to be his friend... Maybe he still has a chance to become an upright person who protects others, let alone being bullied Others are excluded from social circles;
And if when he first entered the Wizard Tower, someone chatted next to him and let Nicholas know that "it can be called after the study time is occupied", then this resentment would not be accumulated in his heart for a long time; If that mentor had taken up the time of the person in front of him or behind him, the situation would be completely different today.
But there are no ifs in this world.
A person's misfortune cannot be used as proof of their innocence-the crime committed will not be diminished because of the misfortune of the perpetrator.
However, if we use people as a mirror and summarize and study past deeds with the aim of "hoping that the tragedy will not happen again from other people", we cannot ignore those details that seem inconspicuous and "just trivial".
It is the accumulation of these coincidences that constitutes destiny.
"There is no depravity, did it happen suddenly..."
Annan murmured, "I know what you want to say."
——He suddenly understood what Sir Silver really wanted to warn him about.
Even if it’s just a shadow left in my heart that hasn’t dissipated, a certain maxim that was torn apart by reality... or everything that has been experienced since birth, it may be subtly affected, Let an originally pure and upright heart fall.
Even though Annan has a reversed winter heart,
It can block most distracting thoughts and evil thoughts.
But it's not necessarily evil that leads a person down the wrong path.
Ideas that are sometimes too lofty, benevolent and unrealistic, are just as harmful.
Many saints died because of this—they violated the holy deed they established when they obtained the holy bones, so they received the most intense counter-curse.
Sir Silver may have come all the way to guide Annan and tell him "what is justice".
——That is to say, Lord Silver was afraid that Annan would be provoked and become extreme, and defined justice as something like "eradicating all evils in the world".
If ordinary people have such a concept, then this will not have any impact... Because they lack the ability to act, they will only point and comment on the "insufficient purity" of other people's behavior at the outermost edge.
But if Annan had this idea, then he would be in big trouble.
——Because this can indeed be regarded as a kind of "justice".
If this kind of thinking is responded by the heart of justice, Annan will get "enough power to realize it" and "the curse that must be completed".
Once this lofty idea is implemented, it will turn Annan into a "devil king" who drags the whole world into flames.
The so-called punishment without teaching, the punishment is numerous and the evil is overwhelming.
Improving the moral character of the people without popularizing education, but directly imposing heavy sentences may be effective in a short period of time...but it will also make the people miserable, so this in itself can also be regarded as a kind of "injustice".
Sir Silver's warning was, in a sense, superfluous.
Annan is not the kind of diode boy who seems to have Uchiha blood, loves and hates quickly, and is extremely adaptable to extreme factors—if there are such factors.
Annan has enough confidence in his own morality and rationality.
He originally relied on morality and reason to restrain his various behaviors. As long as Annan is given some time, he can absorb nutrients from Nicholas' experience and grow himself.
After all, Annan was like that long before he came into this world.
But even so, Annan was still able to make steady progress.
At the very beginning, when Annan got the first and second pages of the Book of Skycart, he looked immature and frizzy compared to him now.
This is exactly what is learned from "Experience".
"...But I have one more question, Sir Silver."
Annan took a deep breath, his eyes became bright and clear: "When Nicholas just slaughtered the villagers...you should have arrived.
"In the beginning, my plan was drawn up in the bank. I would have gone to the Crow's house to meet the Faceless Poet after visiting His Excellency Chiron.
"But she suddenly came to me earlier, and even disrupted my arrangement a little bit—I pushed the time forward a little bit, and it was almost the time when Nicholas was dealing with the scene after the murder.
"Then, my lord."
Annan stared at Sir Silver: "If you had witnessed this with your own eyes, wouldn't you have taken action to save them?
"Then did you really know about this in advance.
"Then... can this kind of behavior of yours also be said to be a kind of injustice?"
Just like Yin Jue said.
At the moment when doubts appeared in Annan's mind, he immediately uttered the doubts, seeking an answer through inquiry rather than delusion.
