The one who called Li Ke a child was naturally Morgana. As for the golden-armored deity, even though Li Ke hadn't seen him before, it wasn't hard to guess that he was the Angel of Judgment Li Ke from his moves and words.
Therefore, the moment he saw the two of them, Li Ke grasped the sword in his hand.
Li Ke shattered the purplish-black shield around Vayne and tossed her to Freldrod's side. Then, he gestured for Freldrod to take Vayne away immediately.
He beckoned to Morgana, who was looking at him with a dissatisfied expression, and revealed a kind smile.
"Miss Morgana, long time no see. But why did you say that I've disappointed you?"
Li Ke cared a lot about Morgana saying that she was disappointed in him. He respected Morgana a lot, so he didn't want to disappoint Morgana and hurt this god who liked to call others children.
It would have been fine if he didn't say that, but Morgana's calm expression turned a little sinister after hearing his words. Her adorable tone turned sorrowful and mournful. Li Ke had always thought of her as an adorable child.
"Those children have clearly repented! But you still killed them! "
Morgana was dissatisfied. When she heard that Li Ke had obtained the rights to rule Pi City, she was overjoyed. This meant that this gentle child could be gentle to even more people. But when she arrived at Pi City with her elder sister, she realized that things weren't as wonderful as she had imagined.
Li Ke had saved many children from suffering, but those who made mistakes were basically all dead. None of them had the chance to repent. On the other hand, Morgana could hear the anguished wails of those who had died in Li Ke's city. She could hear the unwillingness of those who knew their mistakes but didn't have the chance to do so.
This made her extremely sorrowful. She felt that Li Ke was no longer the gentle child who treated everyone with kindness. He had become cruel because of reality.
"Repent?"
Li Ke was taken aback, but he immediately understood the reason.
"But even if they repent, a mistake is still a mistake, Miss Morgana."
However, Morgana shook her head.
"Of course I understand that and I don't object to you punishing them. But some children can clearly make up for their mistakes, but your laws let them die. Your laws are too strict! There are too many death sentences! "
This was what Morgana was most dissatisfied with. In Li Ke's law, as long as someone robbed, no matter how much money they stole, as long as they committed robbery, they would be sentenced to death. Moreover, some of the lighter crimes would also be sentenced to death. This made her very dissatisfied.
This world was cruel. Sometimes, one could only survive by robbing. Therefore, she felt that Li Ke's laws were too strict. However, if a person robbed in order to feed his family, didn't cause any physical harm to others, and was able to repent and make up for it, she felt that such a person didn't need to be sentenced to death.
However, in Li Ke's law, robbery was a death sentence. There was no room for redemption. Even if you only stole a copper coin or a piece of bread, you would still be punished.
Even a piece of bread or a piece of bread would have to die.
This was too much!
This was the feeling she and her sister had after seeing the laws Li Ke had set for Skin City. It wasn't just robbery. There were many crimes that didn't leave people with any chance to repent or make up for their mistakes. Instead, they directly extinguished the life and possibility of those who committed the crime, making it so that the children who committed the crime would never have any chance to live again.
Therefore, she felt that Li Ke's punishments were too heavy. Moreover, Li Ke mercilessly killed those children who committed crimes under their parents' bewitchment. It was too cruel. These children committed crimes because of their parents' teachings and orders, so they should be given a chance.
She also felt that the most important thing for a person who made a mistake was not the physical punishment, but the mental punishment. Only the mental condemnation and punishment could truly make a person repent. Therefore, the physical punishment was not important. What was important was how to make a person repent after making a mistake.
Punishment shouldn't only be about the physical punishment. Making the person carry the mental punishment would serve as a better warning.
"I don't think so. In a chaotic world, there should naturally be heavier laws. Regardless of status, age, gender, as long as someone commits a crime, they should be punished according to the law and justice. If a person wants to preserve their life, then they should do what they should do. That is to not violate the law. I've seen Li Ke's laws. Sister, I don't think there's a problem. "
But in Kyle's eyes, this wasn't a problem. Many of the things that Morgana didn't like were bonus points for her.
If every robber would die under the punishment of the law, then as long as there were enough cases and the people who enforced the law were fair enough, it could guarantee that there wouldn't be robbers in this world. If this was the case for a long time, then robberies wouldn't appear in this world anymore.
As for robbing for one's family?
Robberies were robberies and crimes were crimes. If the law stipulated that one could rob without harming the lives of others, then there wouldn't be a problem. Kyle would only discuss the fairness of the law with the people who made it. But since the law stipulated that robbers had to die …
Then, as long as everyone could enforce this set of laws, then no matter how helpless or tragic the robber was, it would be a coincidence that he or she committed the crime. Or perhaps it was completely due to a coincidence that he committed this crime. Whether or not he really succeeded was meaningless.
He or she deserved to die.
This was her point of view. She didn't care about those who died because of these laws because those who died because of the laws that she agreed with absolutely deserved to die. And if she really encountered a loophole in the laws, she would perfect and amend them.
But there was one thing that she wouldn't compromise on.
A mistake was a mistake. Repentance couldn't erase the fact that they had committed a mistake. They had to receive actual punishment.
As for the condemnation in one's heart?
That wasn't an easy task. Besides, even if one felt guilty for committing a mistake, the punishment that one should receive shouldn't be reduced.
Because that was retribution.
This was the point of view and disagreement between the two sisters. A long, long time ago in Demacia, it was precisely because of this conflict, as well as the fanaticism of their respective followers, that the two sisters turned against each other and became enemies.
They even killed their father because of their struggle to defend each other's beliefs, which made Kyle give up his humanity and Morgana give up her divinity.
Kyle felt that humanity was indeed a stumbling block to true justice, while Morgana felt that if a person had divinity, they would lose all emotions.
So Kyle, who gave up his humanity, held their mother's twin swords and ascended to the heavens. Morgana, who gave up her divinity, cried as she hugged her father's corpse and broke her wings. She watched as her elder sister took the swords that she had discarded and left them. She didn't even attend their father's funeral.
The next time they met was when Kyle was struck down by Yatokus and fell to the heavens.
However, their feelings and conflicts had changed due to time. So Kyle, who didn't completely give up his humanity, chose not to talk about the past. Morgana, who didn't completely give up her divinity, was the same. The two of them acted as if they had never had a conflict and headed towards Morgana's original destination, Earth City.
However, in Earth City, Morgana was dissatisfied with Li Ke's laws. Although Kyle was satisfied with most of Li Ke's laws, he wasn't satisfied with some of them that took human feelings into consideration.
However, when Morgana expressed her dissatisfaction with Li Ke and she subconsciously defended him, the conflict between the two sisters returned.
They quarreled again, but this time, the two of them restrained themselves and didn't fight. They originally thought that this peace and companionship could last for a while longer, but the moment they saw Vayne, the two of them understood that they were going to be separated again.
Although it was painful and sorrowful, the two sisters didn't hesitate and chose to fight again for their pursuit of beauty.
"Ha! Sister, these idiots still can't understand your love for humans. Only when they realize what true justice and morality are will they be worthy of your love. "
Kyle directly ignored Li Ke and refuted his sister's question.
"There's no morality without laws, and the most important thing about laws is fairness. You can't expect emotions to restrain their actions, right?"
Her meaning was very clear. Vayne had broken the law, and what she had done was clearly wrong. So she had to accept her own punishment, even if she didn't kill that Freldrod woman.
She had to accept her punishment according to Li Ke's laws.
"What's the point of physical punishment? If he didn't repent, then no matter how much punishment he received, it would just be another meaningless pain! Only the punishment in your heart can truly prevent you from committing the same mistake again! Sister! Isn't that why laws were created? That's why overly strict laws are unquestionably a weapon to persecute others! "
Morgana also ignored Li Ke and retorted to her sister. The two of them only had each other in their eyes once again. They once again began the battle of words that they had started countless times.
Li Ke was speechless when he heard this. In his opinion, both of them had good ideas. One pursued absolute justice, and a wrong was a wrong. There was no room for quibbling or other possibilities. The other was the justice of human feelings. They believed that emotions and morals were above the law, because the law was created to ensure emotions and morals.
If they could complement each other, then it would be perfect.
Emotions, morality, and law complemented each other and coordinated with each other. That was the perfect rule of society.
But just as Kyle said, it was impossible to do right now. At the very least, it wasn't possible in the Runic Land.
The conditions were too harsh and most people's morality couldn't keep up with the demands of society. Forcefully creating such a society would only cause the world to collapse and create more misfortune.
However, the two sisters were too extreme and very stubborn. They both felt that the other's path was wrong.
Morgana felt that Kyle's pursuit of absolute justice would cause her to lose her emotions. Kyle felt that Morgana's pursuit of human justice would cause her to be covered in wounds.
So the two sisters who cared about each other turned against each other because of their concern for each other.
Normally, Sui Xiong would organize a large group of law students to listen to the discussion between these two gods who loved humans. He would let them understand the importance of law, morality, and emotions. This was to prevent them from losing their humanity and becoming tools of the law. Otherwise, they would directly degenerate and look at the loopholes in the law for their own benefit.
"Can you listen to me? I don't think there's much point in your quarrel because there's no such thing as an unchanging world."
Li Ke agreed with the views of the two people. He felt that both of them were right. Their debate was also very solid. There was no problem at all with what Chu Shuli said.
However.
Why did the two sisters fight when they were arguing?
And they fought very fiercely and with all their might.
"Kyle! People can't become puppets of rules! "
Li Ke's words were ignored and Morgana's attack and debate came. She pressed her hand on the ground and countless black mud rushed towards the sisters who had been eating cake and using their fingers to wipe the cream off each other's lips before eating it.
The black mud was also mixed with chains forged entirely from negative emotions. As long as they caught Kyle's body, they would contaminate her body and cause her proud and luxurious outer shell to collapse.
"But if you only act based on emotions and put emotions above the laws of morality, how are you any different from a beast or a monster!"
Kyle didn't back down. More longswords appeared around her and mercilessly rushed towards Morgana's chains. Every time she said a word, she swung her swords and shot out countless golden flames, burning the black mud summoned by Morgana.
"Why would a puppet need morality!"
Morgana's black wings shattered the chains and completely opened.
"Why would a beast need emotions!"
The six pairs of wings on Kyle's back shone brightly and her swords were covered in flames. Even a flaming crown appeared on her head.
The two of them became more and more energetic. In just a few seconds, the forest Li Ke's group was in was wiped off the map.
Li Ke didn't want to interfere in the sisters' battle and they completely ignored him, so he protected his group and stood aside to watch the show.
However, they were getting more and more out of hand and even destroyed a mountain. Li Ke couldn't help but ask Soraka beside him.
"Have they always been like this?"
Soraka sighed and then nodded.
"Yes, so you better stop them, or else …"
Soraka paused.
"They will each form a country to prove that they are right and fight to the end."
