"Lord Baker, I'd love to hear your opinion on whether you think this world is ruled by gods or magic?"

Des Hepburn squinted at Allen, his sharp gaze carving him like a knife.

"My answer has been written in this book, so don't ask it knowingly, Your Majesty. ”

Alan looked back without giving in, and the eyes of the two met in the air, bursting out with a series of invisible sparks.

"So you already knew. ”

Seeing that his identity was revealed, Allen didn't even show a little surprise, but Dees Hepburn was a little surprised.

"Didn't Your Majesty already know?"

"You're mistaken. In order to carry out God's will, I sometimes resort to some means, but not so lowly. It's a conspiracy between Hollanster and Gerald to trick you into coming, and I just found out that I was being used, but it doesn't matter, I just want to find a chance to meet and talk to you. ”

"What does Your Majesty want to talk about?"

"Why don't you start with this book?"

"Good!"

"In this book, you say that the world is ruled by magic, and we assume that this statement is correct, so have you ever wondered who makes the rules of magic?"

"Who makes the rules of magic?"

Alan was stunned, he was asked. How did the rules of magic come about? He had never thought about it before, and he had been thinking about it for years.

"It's okay if you don't know how to answer, I can tell you that God is the one who makes the rules. ”

Seeing Allen's appearance, a rare smugness appeared on Des Hepburn's face.

"If the rules of magic are really made by God, then this god is of little use other than making the rules in the first place. ”

Although Allen could not explain the origin of the rules, he instinctively realized that Tece Hepburn's explanation was wrong. The rules of magic have been around for a long time, they have been in operation since the beginning of this world, and they have never changed, but they have only been gradually recognized by humans after the birth of magicians, which means that it does not matter whether God exists or not, because it is the rules that determine this world, not God, although this rule was created by God.

That's why we say that all life is equal in God's eyes. But beyond that, God has a benevolent and loving side, which is the true meaning of the existence of the Holy See. ”

Des Hepburn replied calmly.

"I don't know if God is merciful or not, but I have seen the cruelty of the Holy See as a representative of God, and I don't know how Your Majesty is going to explain it?"

Alan sneered and retorted.

"Before answering your question, I would like to ask you a question of how to choose. ”

Des Hepburn didn't answer immediately, he withdrew his gaze from Allen and asked a question.

"Your Majesty, please speak. ”

Alan breathed a sigh of relief, and it was a lot of pressure to look at the most powerful person on the continent.

"If you're driving a carriage down the road, and suddenly a bunch of kids come out on the side of the road and want to stop your carriage, and you're too late to brake, and you're either hitting the kid or steering, but if you steer and you're hitting another kid on the side of the road, and the other kid is completely innocent, what would you choose?"

Thes Hepburn asks a philosophical question that makes people think deeply.

"I'd rather roll over. ”

Alan pondered for a moment, and finally smiled bitterly.

"If you have a lot of people in your car?"

Des Hepburn asked.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what to choose. ”

"It's okay, let me tell you how God chooses. He would choose to crash into the kid on the side of the road, and although it wasn't his fault, the cost of crashing into him was minimal. Love, kindness, yes, but that's great love for all people in the world. Sometimes the superior can only sacrifice his personal interests for the welfare of the people of the world, even the gods are inevitable. So I hope you can understand that the Diocese of Higg put Mr. and Mrs. Benn to death not because of the cruelty of the Holy See, but only through this method can the situation in the Diocese of Hig be stabilized and more bloodshed in the Diocese of Hig can be avoided, so the blood of the Benn and his wife was not shed in vain. This sacrifice is worth it in the eyes of those in power. ”

"If you are truly fraternal, merciful, and equal, how can anyone rebel against the Holy See, and why should the Benn couple be sacrificed?"

"Alan, you're thinking too simply. No matter how well our Holy See does, it is impossible to get the support of Yus, let alone the obedience of the orcs and the approval of the elves, this is no longer a question of right or wrong, but a matter of faith and interests. The reason why the Holy See has been expanding outward all these years is that we want to eliminate different faiths and unify the interests of all, so that we can achieve true fraternity, mercy and equality. If Alan you really want a fair world, then join us and we work together for the ideal world. How?"

"Is it the interest of all or the interests of His Majesty alone?"

"Alan, I know you don't believe me. But you can rest assured, as long as I complete the great cause of unifying the continent, I will immediately give up the position of the Pope. ”

Des Hepburn's eyes were clear and sincere, as if he were a child without any scheming, and if it weren't for the fact that he had seen his many tricks of intrigues, Allen would have almost instinctively chosen to trust him.

"Your Majesty, it is impossible for me to join you. ”

"It doesn't matter. Since you don't like the Holy See, I won't force you, but you are loyal to Holland, and he is bent on killing you, and even locked up his own son-in-law for your sake. ”

"We'll settle accounts with each other. ”

Hearing that Steven was locked up, Allen's pupils contracted violently.

"Alan, you see if this is good. You don't have to join the Holy See, we form an alliance, I will help you take the rule of the ancient city of Ogu, you help me defeat Yus, and in the future I can't help but give you half of the territory of Yus, and I can restore the reputation of the Gosas for you, how about it?"

Des Hepburn began to tear off the mask from his face, revealing his somewhat hideous face, this strategy of killing three birds with one stone will be very attractive to many people, after all, not everyone can get the Pope's commitment and support.

"I don't ask for anything else, if Your Majesty can clear the centuries-old shame of the Godsas, Alan will not be able to repay him even if he is a cow and a horse. ”

Alan pretended to be grateful, but deep down he had no waves, and he now fully understood that whether it was Hollanster or Dees Hepburn, in the eyes of these politicians, they were just a chess piece, which they used when they needed it, and discarded it when they didn't need it, and they didn't need to pay any attention to integrity about a chess piece. Today, Tis Hepburn promised to give him half of the land of Yus, but he was afraid that when that day came, Yuss would perish on his side, and the Knights Templar would show his butcher's knife on him, so he might as well make peace with them first, and wait for everything to escape from Winston.
