Chapter 109: A Choice
Walking on the way out of the test site, Luo Ling said to the two book spirits: "Milda, Glade, you have been with me for almost a month these days, I don't know how you feel about our territory?"
"Hmm, we've been through the era of the Seven Towers, and we've also been through the era of the Black Dragon Empire, and judging from everything you're feeling around you right now, it's still a good era. Milda said as she thought, "You guys have a lot of ideas that I've never seen before, but that I like. For example, about equality, about responsibility, about rights.
I have never seen an ordinary person in the previous world know what he is doing and what he wants so clearly. Compared with those ignorant ordinary people in the past, the ordinary people here are more worthy of appreciation. ”
"How can anyone not know what they want? Children know that they have to eat and pull. Glade said dismissively.
"It's annoying!" Milda snorted, "If you don't understand me, shut your mouth, open your ears, and use your non-existent brain." ”
"Alright Glade, let Milda finish. Then, you also think about my question, I also need your answer. Luo Ling said.
Milda continued, "Luo Ling, this idiot doesn't understand what I mean, but you must understand. I mean, a lot of people here live with their own pursuits, and they're not like the civilians I've seen before, they're not the walking dead.
And the rulers of those councils, in their rule, also took into account the interests of ordinary people. In their picture, there are not only themselves and a small group of people, but also all kinds of people, up and down. They are not bent on seizing power and dominating others. ”
"Hey, do you mean our parents by counterexample, and is there still an emperor of the Black Dragon Empire?"
"When did I mention father and mother?"
"That's right. Indeed, they only care about the things in the mage's tower, and never care about anyone else. Those civilians are no different from cattle and sheep in their eyes. ”
"Shut up!" Milda shouted.
"You're in a hurry, which proves that I'm talking to your heart. Although I am grateful to my father and them, I feel that the people here are doing a better job than them. Why do you feel that the people of that era had no purpose in their hearts? I don't know what I want? It's very simple, because their mage lords, their nobles, and their kings didn't provide them with opportunities, opportunities to learn things, opportunities to gain knowledge, so that their eyes would be in the former courtyard and the farmland outside for the rest of their lives. Remember old Jamie, who was the most prestigious man in their village, because he was in charge of delivering fruit to our mage's tower. He had seen the way mage apprentices were dealing, and he was different from others. ”
"What do you mean?" said Milda, hesitantly.
"What I mean is simple, you shouldn't blame ordinary people for being the walking dead, and that root is in the rulers. ”
"But......," Milda didn't know how to argue.
Luo Ling understood her thoughts very well, and she comforted: "We have a saying, called the limitations of the times. This works for anyone, the commoners under your parents are limited in their vision, and so are your parents, who have not seen a better way to rule but choose the way that best suits the productivity of their time. So, you don't have to feel unhappy. ”
She asked Glade again, "It seems that you think this era is good, too?"
"To be exact, you people are good, although your strength is still very weak, but you have a lot of potential, and you seem to have to tap enough strength from everyone, rather than leaving the problem in the hands of a few strong people. I'm curious to see what will become of this place in the future. ”
"Very well, it seems that you don't hate it here, so I have a choice for you now. I'm going to leave for the royal capital in a few days. Would you like to come with me, or stay here?"
"Stay here?" the two asked in unison.
"That's right. You all have your own elemental bodies, you can walk, you can jump, you can see and touch, why don't you live here as a human being? Mirda is a magic swordsman, and Glade is a magician. You can use your knowledge and strength to build this territory. ”
"You're actually putting two holy tomes to work? Oh, no, I mean exposing us to so many people?" Glade was amazed.
"I've been in contact with you for a month and found that your way of thinking, your emotions, are real people. Except that our life forms are different, we are similar on a spiritual level. So, I think it's a pity that you've been a bystander who can't act. ”
After Luo Ling finished saying this, neither of the two Shuling answered, she knew that she had said what they were thinking, "In the past years, you have always been subordinate and passive, no matter what others call you, you always have a master." So even though you have emphasized that you are an equal relationship with me, you are still habitually attached to me. Most of the time, they still follow my instructions. But just like people grow up, I think you are actually ready to grow up, and you should be able to start living independently of others. ”
"I, I don't quite understand. Glade completely lost his usual grinning attitude at this time, and he asked very seriously, "But for you, isn't it the best thing for us to treat you as a master? Why do you want to push us away? I think anyone who can calculate benefits will think that it is most cost-effective to secretly control us, right? Shouldn't the treasure be hidden by oneself and used by oneself?"
"Because I don't think that's right. I've said many, many things to you this month and have come to see you as my friends. As a friend, of course I have to think about your situation, do you really like to be like this all the time? or ...... It's just a habit you've been using for years, so you don't dare to take a step forward?"
"I ...... I don't know. Glade said softly.
"Maybe we're really scared. Milda replied.
"I have heard your desires, I have heard your fantasies. Milda wants to see the pearlous islands of the southern sea, and Glade wants to invent a magic named after you, and you have your own purpose in your heart, not to stay in my ears day after day. ”
"I didn't expect you to remember all this. Milda's voice was a little embarrassed, "We used to say similar things to my father and mother......
"But they see this as our nonsense. Glade said.
"And even if you want to take the initiative to do things from the perspective of interests, release your experience, knowledge, strength and thoughts, and help many people to accomplish all kinds of meaningful things, you will definitely be able to achieve more value than simply following me. ”
"But if others knew who we we......"
"It's okay for you to hide your identity and get involved in everyone's lives. Only a few will know who you really are. What's more, you all have near-high-level strength, and you don't have those weaknesses of human beings, are you still worried about your safety?"
"Of course I can protect myself, and I can protect Milda, but I'm already suffocated. Glade said.
Milda ignored Glade's muttering, and instead said to Luo Ling, "Maybe you're right. ”
"Then think about it and tell me your options. Luo Ling said.
