After that, Fangzheng told the girls about the stories of those who tried to "save the world" in other worlds.
These included, but were not limited to … Omiya Cheshi and Shiro Amakusa, who tried to use the Holy Grail to save the world; Charles, who wanted to eliminate the competition in the world and started a war; and Omiya Cheshi, who tried to use the Human Patching Project to destroy the entire human race ….
Their pasts were regrettable, their motives were admirable, but their actions could not be forgiven.
"See that? These are the evil deeds committed by those who want to save the world. "
Fangzheng picked up the teacup with a smile and looked at the stunned girls in front of him.
"There's an old saying in my world, 'If you don't clean up your own house, how can you sweep the world'? It means that if you can't even clean up your own house, you want to rule the whole world? It's the most appropriate saying for these people. Remember, you have to learn from experience. Don't think that 'this is a necessary sacrifice for the sake of my ideals' whenever you encounter something …. In fact, if you need to sacrifice these things to make your dreams come true, it means that you don't have the ability to do so. "
With that said, Fangzheng sneered and tapped the screen in front of him again.
"I'm going to talk about Omiya Cheshi. You've seen it for yourself. He experienced a lot of pain when he was young. Then, for the sake of the world, for the sake of justice, for the sake of the happiness of mankind, not only did he kill his teacher with his own hands, but he also tried to sacrifice his wife and daughter. But what about himself? He didn't even know what to do! He only believed that he could save the world as long as he obtained the Holy Grail. That's right, that's a typical example of stupidity. He never thought about how to save the world. He only hoped that he could make this wish and then use the Holy Grail to fulfill his wish! "
"…."
The girls' expressions became more or less complicated when they heard this. Soon, Zuotianlei raised his hand.
"Then why didn't he stop? He could have run away before the War of the Holy Grail. "
"That's right, but he couldn't run away. If he left, then his actions of killing his father for the sake of justice and his teacher for the sake of mankind would all become meaningless. The sacrifices he made would become worthless, and in order to make everything worthwhile, he had to continue, but … "
Fangzheng chuckled as he spoke.
"The truth is that everything he did was truly meaningless. Life is a tragedy subjectively, but it is a comedy objectively. His story, in my eyes, is a farcical comedy, the kind of dark humor. His so-called determination and sacrifice, to put it bluntly, are nothing more than self-consolation and self-hypnosis. Look, it is actually very easy to understand what he is thinking. I have sacrificed so much, and my determination to save the world is real!"
"Uh …"
"But I'm sorry, the world doesn't care if your determination is real or not. To the world, the only difference is whether you can do it or not. If you can do it, you can change the world. If you can't, it doesn't matter how loud you shout. Determination, willpower, effort, sacrifice, these are just additional conditions. "
Fangzheng threw Emiya Cheshi's portrait to the side and pointed at the human in front of him to complete the plan.
"Another lesson is not to try to save the whole world with one person's strength."
Fangzheng stared at Ai, who shrunk back under Fangzheng's gaze.
"You see, as I said, the Human Restoration Committee hopes that humanity can be completely restored and integrated into one. One is all, and all is one. But what? This wasn't agreed upon by the majority. Indeed, I admit that most of the time, the direction of human evolution and survival needs to be led by humans. However, this matter concerns the survival of the race. Even if you don't need the majority's approval, you should at least let others know about it. But these guys have been stirring up trouble in the dark, saying it's for the good of all mankind … What kind of arrogance is this? "
"Ugh …"
Ai pouted in dissatisfaction when she heard Fangzheng's words.
"It's good to want to help others, but it also depends on whether they are willing to accept your help. Besides, saving the world requires a clear goal."
Fangzheng snorted coldly and looked out of the window.
"Just like now, I've given those dead people a choice. I don't care if they agree or not, because I've told them both the choices. Perhaps they won't choose the one we want them to choose, but at least they'll know the consequences of their choice. They won't be like some people who make a decision on impulse and regret it later."
"Ugh …"
Misaka Mikoto groaned. Her heart almost burst from the pain. Fangzheng glanced at her helplessly. Misaka Mikoto probably did not know how many people's lives had changed because of her nod back then.
"Mr. Fangzheng …"
This time, it was Alisa who spoke.
"Which one do you want the dead to choose?"
"The second one."
However, to everyone's surprise, Fangzheng quickly gave an answer.
"Why … Why?"
Upon hearing this, Fei Li was dumbfounded. Rei, who was beside her, also widened her eyes in astonishment. As for Fangzheng, he shrugged.
"It's simple. Because they're dead, and the dead and the living are two different things. To be honest, it's a good thing to eliminate all the dead in this world. Of course, it might bring some grief in the short term, but it's better to get it over with. But as the saying goes, a short pain is better than a long one. People will die sooner or later, and grief is a necessary process, right? But if they become ghosts, there is a possibility that they will suffer endless pain for a long time. So, for their own good, and for my own convenience, I hope they choose the second option. After all, it will be over in two hours. "
"You've already thought that far ahead?"
"Nonsense. I'm a god after all. If I can't think about things from the perspective of time, then I'm no different from the Zerg players who only care about improving their technology at home and don't open a branch base."
"… What do you mean?"
Although they couldn't understand Fangzheng's last sentence, the girls were at a loss. They looked at each other and didn't know what to say. They originally hoped that the dead would choose the first option, but after listening to Fangzheng's words, they felt that ….. the second option was indeed better?
Although it sounded cruel, as Mr. Fangzheng said, it was better to get the pain over with than to prolong it. Besides, these people were already dead … Perhaps it was better to die happily together than to suffer more pain in the long years ahead?
No, why do I feel like I've been brainwashed by Mr. Fangzheng?!
"Hmm? That's not right. If you think this is better, Mr. Fangzheng, why don't you talk to them about it? Why don't you just do it? "
Zuo Tianlei frowned, while Fangzheng chuckled.
"As I said, I'll give them a choice, and they'll have to bear the consequences. Whether they want to die in eternal pain or a moment of happiness and destruction, it's their choice. Let's take you for example. If I told you that in your next life, you'll be reincarnated as a superpower user who's even stronger than Misaka Mikoto, and I want you to die right now, would you be willing? "
"Of course not!"
Zuo Tianlei shook his head desperately.
"I still have my family and so many friends. Although I'm not that strong, I still have so many friends who care about me, and Rei is by my side!"
"Teardrop … …"
Hearing this, Rei, who was next to Zuo Tianlei, was instantly moved. She looked like she wanted to pounce on Zuo Tianlei and hug her.
'Motherf * cker, as expected of the main character. Even when I'm giving you ideological education, you still remember to flirt with girls. I, Fangzheng, am willing to call you the strongest!'
'I'm going to record this scene and bring it back to Indicus.'
'Fight!' 'Fight!' 'Fight!' 'Fight!' '
Thinking of this, Fangzheng, who had been inexplicably stuffed with dog food in class, instantly felt bored. He waved his hand and turned off his personal terminal.
"Alright, that's all for today. Go to sleep. Whatever they decide tomorrow, it's up to them."
Just like that, the night passed.
Fangzheng slept peacefully, but the other girls seemed to be very worried. When they met up the next day, Fangzheng saw that all of them had dark circles under their eyes.
"Didn't you guys sleep last night?"
"Mr. Fangzheng, you slept peacefully, but we were very nervous."
Zuo Tianlei yawned.
"I slept with Rei last night, but neither of us slept well. Rei is also very worried about what the deceased will choose."
"…"
'Are you showing off your girls to me?
Damn it, I'm definitely going to set your harem on fire when I get back. '
When Fangzheng brought everyone to the main hall again, they saw many dead people dressed in luxurious clothes. They stood respectfully on both sides as though ministers were surrounding an emperor. Unexpectedly, the black-haired girl sitting on the throne this time wasn't dressed like before. The bandages and blindfolds covering her face had all been removed, and she was sitting there with her eyes closed.
Soon, the ceremonial officer shouted again.
"Her Highness Wula Hramatica is here. Guests, please come forward!"
Upon hearing this, the black-haired girl gradually opened her eyes and looked forward.
At the same time, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows.
"— — — —!!!"
In an instant, the entire ground began to shake violently as though invisible objects were colliding in the air. The black-haired girl couldn't help but let out a muffled groan and closed her eyes again.
"Your Highness!!"
At this moment, the blue-haired young man from before hurriedly ran over and blocked the black-haired girl, glaring at Fangzheng.
"What are you trying to do!?"
"Hehe …"
However, Fangzheng looked at him with a faint smile, and then looked at the people around him.
"I see. I finally understand why a living person can become the ruler of this city."
"Eh?!"
"Wait, Mr. Fangzheng, do you think that lady is a living person?"
Upon hearing this, the girls behind Fangzheng were shocked. What a joke. Isn't this the well-known country of the dead? Why would a living person be the ruler!?
"That's right. Actually, I was also puzzled before, but now I understand."
"Shut up!!"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, the blue-haired young man suddenly roared. However, Fangzheng stared at him and said.
"Because this lady has the power to kill others as long as she looks at them and talks to them. Am I right?"
"— — — —!"
At this moment, the originally noisy hall instantly became dead silent.
April's new novel, "The Evil Lady Who Reincarnated to Destroy the Flag of a Female Game." The protagonist is the Evil Lady who reincarnated to be the final boss of the game she played. In order to avoid a bad ending, she desperately works hard. It's very interesting. The comic is also very good. I will recommend it while waiting for April to follow it.
