"In life, we must know how to revere, so we need faith. Al muttered a repeat, roughly understanding Gavin's idea, but he didn't agree with it.

Especially because of the country on earth where he was born and grew up in the five-star red flag, he even less agrees with this idea of "religious salvation".

"It's not just faith that makes people awe. Al said solemnly.

"For example?"

"Like the law. ”

Gavin sneered softly, "There are complete and sound laws in the kingdom of St. Teresa, but as far as I can see, there are people breaking the law everywhere and everywhere. The arrogant ignore the law, the powerful trample on the law, and the lowly are trapped in the law. ”

Such a law only fears the weak, but is only another tool for the nobles to oppress the people. ”

"It's just that the power of the law is not great enough, and the prestige is not strong enough. If everyone fears the law, then naturally everyone obeys the law. Al retorted, shaking his head.

"The power is not big enough, the prestige is not big enough, how big is it, how important is it?", Gavin asked again.

"More power than the king of St. Teresa, more than the prestige of the gods. ", replied Al Masase.

Gavin was stunned for a moment, "If the law is above the head, then this king does not deserve to be called a king." ”

"Why does a kingdom have to have a king?", Al asked earnestly.

Gavin was stunned again, "A kingdom without a king?", he couldn't imagine a scene without a king in the kingdom of St. Teresa.

"This can't be!" he said flatly, "a village chief with no more than a few dozen people, and a village chief. A town with a radius of only a dozen miles, and the mayor. That is, in the army, every five people must have a commander to lead. ”

"From a small group to a large country, people have to have a leader to make decisions, otherwise they will fall apart and nothing can be done. ”

"I am not defending the nobles and kings, but they are recorded in books, and the lessons of many wise men have learned from history. ”

"If you say...... I'm just making an analogy, the leader of this country is not determined by blood and other factors, but by a certain process, unanimously elected by ordinary people?"

And this fixed procedure is determined and guaranteed by the law. ”。 After saying this, Al breathed a long sigh of relief, after so many years in this world, he was finally able to say this great rebellion.

"Elected by the common people?", Gavin muttered for a moment, "Interesting idea, just ......"

"Can you expect those illiterate ordinary people who don't know big words, who are calculating all day long how to fill their stomachs and dress warmly, to choose good leaders?", he shook his head again, "You are like a clumsy child to do exquisite carpentry, and let a non-sound idiot sing and dance drama, it is too unrealistic." ”

Al opened his mouth, he was about to say "The wisdom of the people is not open." Think about the fact that so many people on the planet have received nine years of compulsory education, and as a result, they make statements and do things that are no different from idiots. This and that, let alone this backward and ignorant world.

"And what about the faith you speak, do you want the people to revere the god that is a fiction of lies?" Al asked rhetorically.

"We don't believe in gods. Gavin's answer surprised Al again.

Gavin drew a cross on his chest, "What we believe in is the Holy Commandment. ”

"The Lord said, "We must not hide these things from posterity, but we need to narrate our virtues to posterity." ”

"The Lord said, Speak of His lovingkindness and virtue, and give us all things that are concerning life and piety. ”

"The Lord said, Flee from the whispers you have, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those of the Lord who prays with a pure heart. ”

"And how is the Lord you are praying to different from the imaginary gods of the past?" asked Al, puzzled.

This Lord is the true, good, and beautiful self. Gavin explained very seriously, "As long as we continue to pray as the Lord and live and act strictly according to the commandments, eventually people will fulfill their true and good selves." ”

If that's all you want, then I don't think people will believe in your so-called holy religion of the Holy Commandments. Al made his own judgment.

"Why? Isn't the previous Holy Religion ......?"

"In the past, people believed in holy religion because they believed that bad people would go to hell when they died, and good people would go to heaven and mountains when they died, and that the all-knowing and all-powerful god would oversee all this. ”

"As you said before, will the people who spend all day long trying to fill their stomachs and dress warmly pursue that ethereal true, good, and beautiful self?" said Al, disbelieving.

"So you believe more in the law made by the powerful and guaranteed by violence?", Gavin also disagrees with Al.

"At least I believe in this life more than after death, and I believe in reality more than in the human heart. Al said.

Gavin smiled when he heard this, not knowing whether he was laughing at Al or laughing at himself, "I didn't expect that the world would be a little darker in your eyes than I have experienced so much. ”

Al smiled as well, "That's why I've gathered you to kill Reinhardt, who calls himself the Great. Not only because of the dark magicians, but also because I wanted to carry out my philosophy. ”

Gavin looked at Al with a look of sympathy, "Your ideas are unrealistic. ”

"It's because it's unrealistic, that's why we have to do it. Al replied softly.

"You want to destroy an old country and build a new one, which is something that only the king of heroes can do. ”

"There are thousands of people in this world, but there is only one hero king. Gavin kindly advised.

Al remembered the tombstone buried in the uninhabited snow, and thought of the inscription on the tombstone, "I failed." I thought of the last sentence on the tombstone, "This is my ridiculous life." ”

"Indeed, there is only one big fool like him in this world. Al muttered under his breath.

"What did you say?", Gavin didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing, it's just that I'm thinking if I fail. It's not just a matter of death, it is estimated that in the entire kingdom of St. Teresa, there is no place for my El to be buried. Al smiled and gestured with his left and right hands to the shape of an iron box, covering the white meaning of the urn.

"You're really ......", Gavin didn't know what to say, he didn't think well of Al, but he admired this young man in his heart.

"Don't worry, even if I go to the soup and fire at that time, I will definitely collect the body for you. He said a comforting word that he didn't know if it was a comfort.

"It's not in vain that I've lived in this world for so many years, at least there are still a few people who are willing to collect my body. Al declined in a smug tone.

"Since there is no place for me in the kingdom, I wish I could have my ashes sprinkled in the snow in the West. ”
