Chapter 248: Ideal (I)

"I ...... My mother is your NV? And my father ...... He...... He abandoned my mother? ”

Robin stared blankly at Hoffmann the Great, and for a moment seemed completely unable to accept such a thing.23u]

"Yes, that h-n bastard father of yours broke the oath he made, he betrayed her wife, betrayed his father who had high hopes for him, and betrayed my trust in him ~ For Martin? Hervey, for the sake of that idealistic idiot, he actually gave up everything, and even took you away, completely disregarding the damage caused to Olivia by doing so~"

Hoffmann the Great glared at Robin like an angry bull, and his thunderous roar made Robin deeply feel his unforgettable anger. It was only now that he understood why his father was reluctant to mention his past, his wife......

"Olivia? Hoffman, this ...... Is this my mother's name......" Silently reciting this name that made my heart feel warm, Robin suddenly raised his head: "My mother...... Is she okay? ”

"She passed away in September 2078." Hoffman the Great raised his head, his eyes filled with infinite sadness: "From beginning to end, she was waiting for Luo Cheng to bring you back one day, waiting for Luo Cheng to apologize to her one day." I knew that if that day did appear, then Olivia would definitely forgive him. However, the coward did not do this, and for seventeen years, Olivia's physical condition became worse and worse in the course of waiting day after day without news......

"How could it be...... You are the best biologist in the universe, you can treat her~How can you let her die~" Hearing the news of his mother's death, Robin suddenly lost control of his emotions and asked hysterically and loudly.

"If she herself has given up hope of life, then what can I do to pull her back from death......" Hoffmann the Great shook his head bitterly: "Maybe death is also a relief for her, or...... If you can come back a few years sooner, she may still have the will to survive. But it's too late to say these things now, there is no power to turn back time, and what is lost can never be recovered. ”

“……”

Hoffmann the Great's words made Robin purse his mouth tightly, he didn't expect that he had come all the way to the empire, but what he found was only the death of his mother and a disgraceful history belonging to his father.

For his father, he inevitably blames him, but in his heart, as a man, he can't really blame his father.

Men are creatures who live in an ideal world, and my father chose this path for his ideals and ambitions. Perhaps in the eyes of Hoffmann the Great and his mother Olivia, his actions were a complete betrayal, but if he stood in his shoes, he chose to do so only to take responsibility for his own ideals.

Like Robin himself, his choice to give up his stable life and return to the war-torn battlefield also failed Cecilia's expectations. Therefore, he can understand his father's mentality, and he also understands that he must have his own difficulties in doing this, after all, his mother Olivia is the most cherished son of Hoffmann the Great and the princess of the empire. Father can't leave the empire quietly with his mother Olivia, if he chooses to take Olivia with him, then Martin? Hervey's whereabouts are bound to go violent. Father adores Martin? Hervey, who regarded him as the most important person in the world, therefore, his father could only let go of his si-man emotions and choose Martin? Hervey.

This is a dead knot that is difficult to tie, and among ideals and families, father Luo Cheng must give up one.

In the end, the father chose to abandon the family to pursue his ideals. As Hoffmann the Great said, he was not a good husband, not a good son, not even a good father. But as a republicist, he was the most dutiful, he gave everything for the republic, and he single-handedly built the republic, which originally had nothing, into a powerful country. So, in a sense, he has realized his ideals and ambitions. But in the same way, he also lost a lot of things that he should have as an ordinary person.

"That guy...... What are you doing now? After being silent for a long time, Hoffmann the Great's anger had subsided, and he asked indifferently.

"He's retired...... Currently working as a farmer on Earth......"

"Farmer?" Hoffmann the Great snorted coldly and sneered disdainfully: "He gave up becoming a nobleman, but in the end he became a farmer? Hmph~ I didn't finish my studies, so I thought about Martin? Hervey's set, I should have thought of a long time ago, that people like him were destined to achieve nothing. ”

“……”

Hoffmann the Great's evaluation of his father Luo Cheng is that he has not completed his studies, perhaps, after all, his father was only 27 years old when he left the empire, and from the perspective of a scholar, this is an age when he has just laid the foundation and has not yet begun the real academic road. Able to be like Renee? After all, it is rare to find a model of McCeny becoming the top in the industry in his twenties, so in this sense, his father Luo Cheng did live up to the expectations of his grandfather Luo Qingshan, and he chose to break away from his guidance before he inherited Luo Qingshan's true academic essence, and even academically, he has not yet set foot in the McCeni metal project developed by his grandfather Luo Qingshan, which has led to the fact that the Republic has not been able to get involved in this NG technology industry for decades, resulting in armaments, Equipment, etc., are an era behind other countries. If it weren't for Robin's trip to the Confederation by chance, which opened the M-N account for the Republic to obtain Mycenae metal, I am afraid that the national strength of the Republic would be widened by this technological gap, and Martin? Hervey's ideal country will eventually become an ethereal bubble that will never be realized.

But is a democratic republic really wrong? Could it be that the prosperity and strength of humanity must be based on the enslavement of one's own kind? Is the so-called equality of all people really destined to be an unrealizable dream?

Robin didn't know the answer. Although in reality, if it were not for the series of miraculous victories he made for the republic, and the administrative reforms of the NG NG, the Republic would have been annexed by the German Confederation of Lei M-NG long ago. But through the observation of the federal and imperial political systems, Robin found that these two systems were not without their faults, and that they may be superior to democratic republics in some respects, but within them, there are also numerous hidden concerns.

Perhaps sensing his inner thoughts from the change in Robin's expression, Hoffmann the Great interrupted his thoughts with a chuckle: "Are you thinking about Martin?" Is Hervey's democratic republic as bad as I said? Hehe...... As a man in Martin? Young man who grew up under Hervey's political philosophy, I can understand your suspicions at the moment. ”

Hoffman the Great's smile was filled with a strong confidence, which made Robin even more sleepy and puzzled.

"I admit Martin? Hervey's political philosophy is extremely idealistic, but I also don't think that the so-called democratic politics of the empire and the federation are much better than him, the only difference is that in my opinion, the material base and scientific and technological level of the country are different at the beginning, as long as those extreme ideas are removed, I think the democratic republic is not as bad as you say. ”

"Really?" The smile on Hoffmann's face gradually faded, and unconsciously l-the majesty of the emperor: "You have never understood this world, this universe. In other words, you don't understand what kind of competition humanity is facing. In the era of peace, the democratic republic is indeed a superior political model, but now human beings are no longer a species with absolute dominance, and the current era is an era of competition for survival.
