After a few moments, Rama regained his strength.

His body is far tougher than that of mortals, including the will of the soul.

Even though he sank in the dream more times, when he was free, his body was still able to recover quickly.

As Rama climbed up, the figure of the Great Mercy Tree King was like a shattered lens, then turned into a bright white powder, and completely disappeared into the golden dreamland.

Rama sensed that something had taken root in his mind, and he frowned slightly, but he did not refuse.

Sure enough, he didn't die.

The good news is that he is not dead, and the bad news is that He chose to stay in His mind······ Maybe both of them are good news, if it's not me, the carrier is Nahida.

Both are good news.

He stretched out his hand and pushed open a hidden door, and the door of the golden dream land opened, and Rama walked away quickly.

No one is waiting for Him here, and no one is angry or resentful of His failures.

A world where everyone has what they want to do, and there's no time to give too much attention to the losers.

What's more, this is just an attempt without a foundation.

The Great Tree King opened the way for them, and if they succeeded, they had to consider whether Rama was qualified, and even if Rama was qualified, whether they would give Him their things.

And Rama failed it was more straightforward, taking the advantage and leaving, there was no need to stay and continue to delay each other's time.

"() Hi, little brother."

Someone patted Rama on the shoulder, "What was the result of the experiment?" There's nothing big about him, is he? ”

"Dead." Rama brushed his hand away, "So why don't you stay in Sumeru if you don't go home and take care of your dragon?" ”

Wendy blinked and smiled, "Oops, have you forgotten what you promised?" But I haven't forgotten it. ”

He cocked up his fingers, and his tone was brisk as if he were chanting a hymn, "You have promised to go to Mondstadt to become the new Anemo in place of Barbatos, I understand your distress because of failure, but you can't just stay where you are and stop moving forward because you are in a difficult mood!" ”

The poet looked unexpectedly serious, "You have to believe that you have a better future, it's just a failure, what's the point?" ”

Rama was silent.

"These words come out of your mouth······· How many steps have you taken in the millennium since you became a god? Rama lifted his forehead.

This kind of thing is much more suitable than Wendy, even if it is a ray movie.

This is currently the biggest fake race king in the game, and he is also the wind god who lost face the fastest in the game, and he can actually say that he should not stagnate because he is in a difficult mood.

"I've done a lot of things, too." Wendy was indignant, "For example, without me, where would the people of Mondstadt find such a good knight leader as Vanessa and Jean!" ”

"By the way, speaking of which, I have a question." Rama avoided answering and casually asked a question, "What do you think of the Lawrence family?" ”

A simple and easy way to deal with a person's question is to give him a question so that he doesn't have to give a positive answer.

Rama is not lost.

He was very aware and aware that He was facing a terrible thing—that habit had failed, but He was powerless.

Before the story of Sumeru officially began, Rama had succeeded at least nine times out of ten, and at this time he would not doubt himself, and if there must be a problem with the world and himself, Rama would think that it was the world's problem.

Not now, people who lose nine out of ten bets think that they can win the next hand, because they have only lost their pants, and if they don't win, it is basically no different from dying, of course they will feel and can only think that they will win.

Rama's situation is a little different, he is indeed losing, and he is constantly losing good opportunities, such as in the current grand gamble of one step to the sky, he lost one by one, and the Great Tree of Mercy gave him hundreds of opportunities to go back, and he was not able to choose a correct answer.

But if Rama really lost anything because of this, then what he lost was the opportunity itself.

If you want to talk about gambling, Rama can only say that it is a two-dollar lottery ticket, and if you don't win, of course, you lose the opportunity to make a lot of money, but if you want to say that you lose something important because you don't win, you can only say that you have lost the opportunity to make a fortune itself?

The greatest punishment for Rama himself for failure was for him to be able to soberly watch his own powerlessness over certain things.

He will inevitably pay a terrible price for today's failures in the future, but not today, not now, only in the future.

There is no way to say this kind of thing to Wendy, to share your experience and experience of failure, it is best to tell everyone generously after you succeed, I am the right cloth.

Even though I have written down the pen and paper in my hand, why should I be ashamed to speak because of who I once was?

However, if you have been wearing clothes all your life, there is no need to publicize it to others.

It's not that Buyi is so shameful that he can't say his identity, it's just that failure itself is the same as suffering, it's not something to show off, if these things have any value, it's just that the person who has survived these painful years itself is worthy of praise, if he didn't survive, then there is no need to say it.

The power of words is usually not in the language itself, but in whether the person who combines the words is worth the long time you spend devoting to the interpretation of his words.

For example, exams.

It has to ask you what the meaning of a sentence is, unless you don't want it, you can only analyze and think about the role and value of the sentence.

Rama felt that he had a lot of experience with his recent failures, but it would be a bit of a shame to share his experience with Barbatos.

After all, in terms of the plot, Barbatos has no specific failures, and Rama can't teach the god of success as a loser.

Wendy blinked.

Of course, he understood that Rama was digressing, but the issue was worth a moment's silence.

"What do you think?" He asked rhetorically, "He said that your ideas are simple and straightforward, and that they should be more effective than normal people's opinions. ”

"I'm a Sumeru, and no matter how efficient I am, I shouldn't meddle in Mondstadt's internal affairs." Rama refused to answer.

This is really not a difficult question for Him, but He is not a authority, and the decision is of course simple and straightforward.

For example, He can make people give up hatred, or he can preach the idea of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth······· None of this has anything to do with Him in essence, whether the Lawrence is evil or atonement, none of this has anything to do with Rama.

It doesn't matter, the words that come out are naturally relaxed.

"But you're about to become the god of wind in Mondstadt, and just because Apep's path has failed, doesn't mean you have no other way to go, right?" Wendy grinned, always so light-hearted, "If you're the Aeola of Mondstadt, you're in charge of all these troubles." ”

"Kill it."

Rama barely pondered, "It's been thousands of years since the aristocratic times of Mondstadt. ”

At that time, Vanessa was a wizard who influenced the entire Mondstadt and even Teyvat, and was just a slave back then.

"Hatred is not impossible to last for thousands of years, but it requires non-stop fighting with each other, so that hatred is like a chain, firmly trapping those at both ends of the chain."

"And between Mondstadt and Lawrence, there will be no such relationship."

The earliest contradiction should be the contradiction between the Mondstadt aristocracy, led by Lawrence, and the Mondstadt commoners, led by Vanessa, and the true aristocratic class, led by Gunnhilde and Legunfender, who adhered to the early ideas of the Aeol.

Theoretically, the aristocratic class and the commoner class are inherently opposed, and the Sumeru people have proved that any superhuman privilege itself must be supported by inferior cattle and horses.

The so-called privilege must be the result of comparison.

But Teyvat is different in that the aristocracy and the assets they hold are worthless to the god who weighs everything.

Law and morality can be interfered with by Mora, but the determination of the gods is not.

This is not only because they are powerful, but also because these gods have a long lifespan and are wise enough.

Even a young god like Nahida could solve most problems with his mind-reading abilities.

This also means that when the gods make judgments, it is difficult for them to be affected by the external forces that humans can create, and the final judgment is naturally relative to the justice of the collective.

Gunnhilde and Rheinfender were aware of this.

In Mondstadt's Three Imperial Family, Lawrence has been hammered into the ground and cannot climb out, but the remaining two nobles are still the magnates of Mondstadt today, thousands of years later.

Of course, limited by the freedom given to the people by the god of wind, although they are great nobles, they do not enjoy much privilege most of the time.

Although they still have more opportunities, this is an inevitable event determined by their background, and they don't need to sit back and enjoy the results after forcibly kicking someone out of the game.

Similar to Jean and Diluc of this generation, they went from the Knight of Favonius to the position of the head of the Knights, and if there was no Cripps incident, it would probably be the two of them competing with each other.

They certainly don't need to press down on other competitors in the dark to be able to sit in that position, after all, in terms of ability, talent, and their own personal team, it is obvious that their family background can give a lot of extra help.

Unless another Vanessa jumps out, a normal Favoniur Knight will obviously not be able to compete with these two.

There are two ways to succeed, tear down the opponent's platform and build your own, usually the two are used in parallel to seek stability, and in most cases the latter is actually enough.

And this is relative fairness, they didn't use special means, they just used some things that their own family already has, and there is no way to be fairer.

Ryunfelder and Gunnhilde wanted only the latter in their early years, but Lawrence wanted both to be kings of this human kingdom rather than a nobleman.

Right or wrong can only depend on the outcome, and it is clear that even if the Anemo God does not care about anything, Mondstadt is also the Mondstadt of the Anemo God, not the property of some nobleman or a certain power.

Of course, they can't flip the table with each other and demand that the other party restore order to Mondstadt when the Lawrence family is in full swing, but once they sense the fate of the Anemo, they will immediately become the best pawns and build momentum for Vanessa at any cost.

It's really to say how much they value this slave-like stranger.

At that time, Vanessa was just a gladiator, and she was still a Nata, and her greatest relationship with Mondstadt seemed to be that she had been abducted here by fate to fight to ensure the survival of her people.

It's hard to get up with this kind of identity.

Even if she grew up in Mondstadt and only has the blood of the Natarians, it makes no sense for this person to sit directly in the position of equal king.

What's more, she and Mondstadt have nothing to do with each other at all.

But in the end, Vanessa took all the fruits of her victory, and went from being a slave from a foreign to the uncrowned king of Mondstadt.

Vanessa herself may not have cared about these changes in power status, but these changes in her identity must have been inseparable from the support of the nobles who were able to preside over Mondstadt at that time.

That's what Lawrence faces.

Not only the normal commoner class, but even the aristocracy was dissatisfied.

They are reluctant to confront Lawrence when the god of wind does not take a stand, but once they find a trace, they will immediately become the pawns of the god of wind, ready to tear apart all evil parties who try to trample on free will for the sake of the freedom defined by the gods.

Rama glanced at Wendy, "Before the end of the war, Lawrence had already committed heinous deeds, and it was not worth considering forgiveness at all, he could have directly dragged him to the statue in front of the cathedral and beheaded him, and used his blood to deter all the nobles who fantasized about stepping on the heads of the people, and to appease the ordinary people who were injured but unable to resist." ”

Wendy snorted.

It really has nothing to do with him.

As soon as he woke up, the Lawrence people had already done all the bad things, he was the god of the wind, but after all, he could not defy time, and he could only make amends, but he could not save the injured innocent people from disaster.

"But hatred could not continue on that day, because Lawrence no longer had the subjective conditions to do evil, and the people only had unilateral resentment towards them, and on this basis, resentment would turn into contempt and contempt over time, but it could no longer be counted as hatred."

They couldn't fight back at all, and even if there were people with hatred at the beginning, it was very difficult to maintain hatred for such a group of people after a thousand years.

In the absence of a specific reminder, people forget hatred quite quickly.

If Lawrence was spending some Mora on some fretting news, the populace would have forgotten faster.

Even if the book is written about Lawrence's evil deeds, the new generation of Mondstadt people will probably only think that "these people are really so bad" or "such bad people are their ancestors, they are just paying off the debt to their ancestors, isn't a thousand years enough to pay this debt", and think that the hatred has come to an end.

"You're saying they should be forgiven?" Wendy touched her head, "That's right, Jean thinks so too." ”

"As far as time is concerned, a thousand years is indeed enough to be forgiven." Rama bowed slightly, "But I still support the direct execution of all of them." ”

"You've said their sins have been washed away, so why do you end the story with killing?"

Wendy was a little surprised.

Rama also made it clear in and out of his words that the fate of being spurned for thousands of years has been regarded as paying off what the ancestors did a thousand years ago.

First, human life is indeed not so valuable, and secondly, this matter is indeed too long, and the debts of the ancestors can indeed be counted on the heads of the descendants, after all, the support of the pleasures of the descendants is also part of the sins of the ancestors.

But millennium········ It's been too long, and no matter how much you chase the debt, you can't chase it for so long.

Teyvat's world also has extraordinary powers, but the difference between the human lifespan and Rama's impression is not very big, and it is indeed a bit unreasonable to bear the debt of a thousand years with a hundred years of life.

Rama also supported that Lawrence's sins had been cleared, but his decision was clearly contrary to his rhetoric.

"If these Lawrians are to be forgiven, the first thing that needs to be done is to liquidate all the Mondstadt people who have been hostile to Lawrence in recent years." Rama's words were calm, "The innocence of some means that others are guilty. ”

"But hatred is something that cannot be calculated, you can only choose one side to destroy, and it is impossible for both sides to realize that hatred is really over at the same time."

Lawrence did not atone for his sins now, and at some point in the millennium, they had completely lost nothing to the people of Mondstadt.

If it is not recognized that sins can be paid for, then Lawrence should also go directly to the Louis XVI happy machine when Vanessa revolts thousands of years ago.

Their sins were the most deserving of reckoning in those days, and allowing them to live meant that they were allowed to atone for their sins.

If the idea of atonement is true, there will be no sin that cannot be repaid at all, except that ordinary people cannot have the lifespan, property, and ability to pay for it.

But what an individual can't afford, a family has spent thousands of years, and it can be borne after all.

To put it bluntly, their sins have touched the side of rebellion at most, and even because of the strength of the demon god, they still play this game under the freedom planned by Barbatos, and they don't dare to openly argue with Barbatos.

As for the badminton festival, a few girls were selected to enter their homes······· I can't say that it is not a sin, but if I want to say how serious a sin it is, it is not really enough.

If the emperor did not choose to count such crimes directly according to the genealogy at that time, it would not have been possible to really punish them for a thousand years later.

"Either they will not be given the opportunity to atone for their sins, and if they are, they will be recognized as sinless one day." Rama said earnestly, "But the people of Mondstadt probably never considered this, and their oppression of a group of innocent people is equivalent to committing a sin themselves. ”

Lawrence wasn't really powerless to resist.

Of course, they couldn't resist the Knights of Favonius, but when it came to a certain Mondstadt who scolded them, their fists and kicks were still enough.

You may not be able to let them know that you are a good person, but you can at least let them know that they cannot be unscrupulous in front of you.

With Eula's force value, she is more than capable of hanging every jumper in Mondstadt and beating them, but unfortunately she can't, the only thing she can do is to go to the tavern to borrow a drink to drown her sorrows, and find a better future that will only appear in dreams.

"Just because of this?" Wendy's expression was a little heavy.

"Just because of this." Rama nodded and said, "It's really troublesome to weigh right and wrong, because a minority that has made a mistake and is now improving is going to stand on the opposite side of the majority of the group that is making mistakes, and I don't think it's right." ”

"So it's better to make mistakes, and when they are not considered innocent by the people, simply crucify their mistakes, and directly let everything settle and become a reality."

These words should not have been said to Wendy, but Rama was too lazy to hide them.

One step to heaven failed, and He was not as calm as he appeared.

"This is what Vanessa should have done, in those days when she killed Lawrence, it would only make the people applaud, and there would be no unnecessary trouble."

"But she handed over the trouble to future generations, and the reasons for killing became more and more inappropriate, and the sinners became more and more innocent, but the people were still accustomed to treating them as sinners."

"If it continues to drag on, there will still be people who will have to face the situation of making mistakes and doing justice."

Wendy shook her head, "Jean wouldn't do that. ”

Rama turned away, "Of course she didn't want to do it, but she didn't do anything for Lawrence, did she." ”

"In a fight, if the strength or weakness is too obvious and you choose to sit on the sidelines, then you have made a choice."

Even if you don't have a reason to meddle in the conflict at all, it may even be possible that the strong beating the weak is itself a legitimate event caused by some reason.

But choosing to remain silent in things that have already turned out to be obvious is to acquiesce in the outcome where things are likely to develop.

Specifically, it's just that you think the answer is reasonable, and it just doesn't deserve it, or you think it's unreasonable, but you don't dare to say the difference.

Jean was already brave, and she gave a Lawrence-born man the chance to become a knight.

Eula was even braver, she took a path that she couldn't actually see a way out, Rama still had a chance to regret it, but although he repented, he still couldn't find another way out, and Eula knew from the beginning that she shouldn't have taken this path.

The Knight of Favonius is one of the best ways out for the people of Mondstadt, and it is almost free for the people of Mondstadt, but there is no guarantee that those who walk will make it to the end.

But it won't be open to Lawrenians.

Unfortunately, brave attempts don't always lead to good endings, and some end even earlier than the events themselves.

This is not a debate, Wendy is testing Rama's habits, and Rama tells him bluntly and unabashedly.

I'm not interested in the right or wrong of the people of Mondstadt, and if I were the god of Mondstadt, I would only make a choice based on the interests of the majority of Mondstadt.

Even if I knew that the answer itself was oppressive to the victims, and that the majority was actually the perpetrators, I would still choose this because it would be easier to balance and more satisfying to the people of Mondstadt.

Lawrence was only a small fraction of the Mondstadt, and sacrificing them for the laughter of the majority of Mondstadt, Rama didn't find it an embarrassing choice.

Such a choice can actually satisfy Wendy.

All he needed to know was Rama's attitude towards Mondstadt, and it turned out very well.

He does not covet all the benefits of Mondstadt, but only wants the people of Mondstadt to maintain a relatively peaceful and normal life - not to look for trouble, and on this basis, He will lead all the people of Mondstadt to live a better life.

In the process, the people of Mondstadt will gradually realize the value of the new Anemo God and surrender their faith.

A simple deal, I bring peace and convenience to the people, and the people give me faith, and I don't care anything else.

There's no reason for Venti not to be satisfied, if Rama is the second generation of the god of wind, he certainly can't be satisfied with the idea of using the people of Mondstadt as tools.

But Rama is a tool god, just to deal with some variables of the tool of war, this is the most dedicated attitude of a tool god.

He only wants what he wants, and he does his job abidely, and does not cross the thunder pool······· Rather, he had no interest in Mondstadt's rule at all, and only wanted the faith of the people.

As a tool god, this can't be more qualified.

Of course, there are people who pick bones and want to find trouble, and Rama doesn't love people at all.

His attitude towards Lawrence is essentially his attitude towards the Teyvats, who are instrumental gods, and Teyvats are instrumental men.

In Rama's eyes, the fundamental purpose of solving problems is to enable the people around them to work more efficiently for His desires, so it doesn't matter how the problem is solved, or even whether the problem is solved or not.

The only thing that matters at this time is to make most people feel that the problem has been solved.

They feel that everything is quiet, as if everything is as they want, and naturally more and more solid faith will be provided to Rama.

"It's a realistic idea, but if it's who he is, it's just right."

Wendy muttered softly, "After all, he doesn't feel like a god of wind, just a weapon of war to be paid for in a transaction." ”

I don't want to meddle in all of Mondstadt's affairs.

If you think freedom is what the people of Mondstadt need, I will follow that philosophy as well.

If you think Mondstadt should be left to the people of Mondstadt, I will sit on the shoulders of the gods and look down on Mondstadt without saying a word, leaving the Knights of Favonius to do the work.

What do you think Mondstadt should be, and when you put it in my hands, I'll make sure it's still what you want it to be.

Because I'm just a tool god and not a real next-generation god of Anephore, I don't need my own opinions, my own thoughts, in the matter of Mondstadt, I just need to obey the idea of the true Anemo God.

"It's so reassuring." He touched the back of his head and smiled a little awkwardly, "Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" ”

Rama must have taken this into account, so He spoke clearly and directly.

It's just a deal.

"No matter."

After a while, the Wind God laughed heartily, "I'll just do it this way, and I'll leave the rest to the people of Mondstadt." ”

Of course, there was distress, after all, Rama could see at a glance that He did not love people at all.

But a God who does not love man can sit firmly in the position of a god, as long as he does his job well.

Wendy wasn't going to ask Rama to do more.

This is just another attempt, there will not be only one path in the world, this time Rama failed, maybe next time he will succeed, anyway, left and right just give him a chance.

Sending out the Heart of God is one path, and freeing Dvalin's ancient dragon power is also the same way, and now making Rama the god of wind is still the same path.

There wasn't much he had to pay for these roads, or rather, there was nothing that Wendy cared about in particular.

So of course he can be so confident, after all, what he is taking out is just something insignificant.

(End of chapter)
