Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Josiah sat in the office of the Noland Law Enforcement Department.
There were two records placed in front of Josiah. Judging from the thickness, each had around a hundred pages.
The contents of the two records were mostly about the 'feats' that Josiah had done after arriving in Noland.
The detailed records made Josiah feel as though he had become a vicious criminal.
Perhaps the moment he entered Noland, the entire Law Enforcement Department would turn out in full force to hunt down Josiah.
Even though Josiah was a Chaos Devil and was a huge threat to human spellcasters, the Law Enforcement Department did not have to worry about him.
However, Josiah could say that he had not done anything shameful since arriving in Noland.
"It seems like the Law Enforcement Department of Noland is paying close attention to me."
Josiah found a chair and sat opposite Sike and the man in yellow.
"It's because everything you've done has affected Noland too much, Josiah Yanorod."
After Josh, the outsider, appeared, Sike returned to his position as the manager of the law enforcement department. Since the yellow-clothed man was sitting in his seat, he could only stand beside the yellow-clothed man.
Josiah's sudden visit caught Sike off guard, but he could also use this opportunity to understand this … devil better.
Even though the Law Enforcement Department had recorded many of Josiah's deeds, Sike's understanding of Josiah only stopped at the dangerous Chaos Devil race.
Once upon a time, humans' impression of demons came from the church's missionaries. Sikes' impression of demons also came from rumors. Even though the movie had changed his opinion, Sikes still firmly believed that demons were not friendly to humans.
But the person in front of him … Sike did not know how to evaluate him.
The things that Josiah did could be said to have changed the lives of the people of Noland, be it the movie or the Mana Net …
If Josiah passed away in the future, just the title of 'Creator of the Mana Net' would be enough for him to be recorded in history as a sage.
It was a pity that Sike could not sense a trace of 'greatness' from the young-looking devil in front of him.
The Chaos Devil's every word and action seemed to place the words' I'm easy to understand 'on the table.
No … The devil who created the Mana Net and the movie should be much older than him. His naive appearance might just be a disguise.
Sike, who had interacted with countless people, immediately labelled Josiah as a 'danger'.
"The emergence of airships and magic carriages has affected the entire world. Human civilization has never been stagnant, right?" Josh said with a smile.
"Do you think your creation is comparable to a magic car?"
The yellow-robed man suddenly spoke up. He was surprisingly calm in front of Josiah, the main culprit.
"That's not the case. I believe that both movies and the Mana Net are 'luxuries' for human civilization. The products that truly drive the operation of the entire civilization should be the machines powered by magic power that appeared in the World Expo."
"Luxury goods?" After listening to Josiah's explanation, the man in yellow raised his head and stared at the young demon in front of him. "I don't think that what you've created is a 'luxury' for human beings but a 'poison', a poison that can corrode human minds."
After listening to this, the man in yellow quietly waited for the young demon's answer.
Even though the yellow-clothed man wasn't as overbearing as before when he conversed with Josiah, he was so calm that even the yellow-clothed man felt a little surprised.
However, the words of the man in yellow weren't pleasant to hear. If this demon really wanted to 'infect all humans in Noland with the poison of the movies and the Demon King', then he should be displaying an expression of anger or disdain right now.
A demon indeed had no reason to care about the feelings of humans. Moreover, Josiah wasn't afraid of the yellow-clothed man's identity as a sage.
"Poison to the mind? I admit that part of what you said is correct, "Josiah said.
"Part of it?"
Josiah's answer surprised the man in yellow once again.
He boldly admitted that what the man in yellow said was correct!
The man in yellow looked at the demon in front of him. He couldn't sense any negative emotions from Josiah.
"I can't deny the dangers brought by the movies, the Weave, and Hearthstone," Josiah told the man in yellow honestly.
"A portion of Nolan's spellcasters will treat the plot of the movie as reality after watching it. This is a fact, and the citizens of the Magic Net are too free to communicate, which can cause all sorts of accidents. As for Hearthstone, I've met quite a few spellcasters who went bankrupt just to buy card packs."
Josiah couldn't help but smile wryly as he listed the 'bad things' and 'bad things' that had happened.
"But you in yellow, the driving of the magic car can also cause accidents. Driving it at high speeds on the streets can claim the lives of pedestrians, and it's even more so for airships. I remember that the technology for airships isn't mature yet, and there's a risk of crashing every time it takes off …"
Josiah stared straight into the eyes of the old man in front of him, not avoiding his question at all.
"Are you going to stop the development of magic cars and airships after these accidents? Are you going to deny them to the point that they're worthless and throw them into the trash? "
"That's impossible!" The yellow-robed man said almost immediately.
Whether it was the magic car or the airship, they were both magical machines that would greatly affect the future of mankind. The yellow-robed man would not give them up, and the other alchemists would not give them up, no matter how dangerous the research and development was.
"I feel the same way. I heard from the man in grey that you've watched Beauty and the Devil. Even if the plot doesn't make sense to you, it should still be interesting. Otherwise, you wouldn't have mentioned it so often."
"This has nothing to do with whether it's interesting or not!"
The man in yellow's emotions fluctuated for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Josiah Yanorod, I agree with what you said, but I still don't approve of what you've done. That's why I might still get Noland's enforcers to dismantle all the 'televisions', and what you've just said will become powerful evidence," the man in yellow continued to size up Josiah, only to find that Josiah was still very calm. "You should know this, so why are you telling me information that's not good for you?"
"Because I'm not here for my own benefit, but for the people of Noland, or the future of this city."
Josiah placed an invitation on the table and pushed it towards the man in yellow.
