Mystery: Chaos Path

#240 - Rollin's View of Right and Wrong

"He's not an ordinary child. In a few days, he'll be an adult. Even now, his mind is far more mature than that of most children. That's why we can't indulge him too much. Otherwise, if we're not careful, he might be completely spoiled and impossible to correct."

Rowan shook his head, glanced at Little Amon, and then said with a smile:

"However, I'm really surprised that you're on such good terms with Sherlock. It's good that you're willing to do things that make Sherlock happy, but your method is wrong."

"...Then what's the right way?" Little Amon suddenly raised his head and looked at Rowan, his expression very serious, even a bit stubborn, as if he really cared about the answer to this question.

"Right and wrong are difficult concepts to define, and in this case..." Rowan paused, probably taking a moment to think about how to explain it to Little Amon, before continuing:

"You can give Sherlock advice, help him do things that can improve his relationship with me, or you can use other things to divert Klein's attention so that he doesn't think about this."

Little Amon had a thoughtful expression, which made him look less like a ten-year-old child and more like a little adult.

"So, the right thing to do cannot be based on violating the wishes of others, is that right?" Little Amon suddenly asked after thinking for a while.

"That's partially correct. As I just said, right and wrong are difficult concepts to define. Sometimes, because of different perspectives, what's right can become wrong, and some mistakes, under certain circumstances, can become right. However, this part of the concept is indeed too early for you."

Rowan nodded, then shook his head, and finally smiled and said:

"For now, just remember what you just said."

Little Amon probably didn't fully understand, nodding somewhat blankly. Then, after hesitating for a moment, Little Amon suddenly said:

"...I'm sorry."

Rowan was stunned for a moment. This time, he was truly surprised. Then he curled his lips and smiled, saying:

"I forgive you! Little Amon is a good child. The best child is one who can correct their mistakes." After saying that, Rowan took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Little Amon, then patted his head and said, "Go rest for a while. I have some things to discuss with your teacher, Will."

"Oh..." Little Amon took the candy and stood up without hesitation, running away with a patter of footsteps.

"...You actually know how to teach children?" Will, who had witnessed the whole scene, couldn't help but complain: "I thought, with your style, you would directly say that your own wishes are the most important, and the wishes of others don't matter at all."

"Of course, that's how I am myself." Rowan admitted without the slightest embarrassment, making Will choke for a moment.

Rowan then continued with a smile: "But it's not that I don't know what's right, even if I don't necessarily abide by it. But this is teaching Amon, so I'll definitely teach him the best way."

After all, Amon's values are already skewed enough. If he doesn't try to correct them in a good direction, what kind of monster would he create!

"You're quite frank." Will couldn't help but sigh once again.

Rowan glanced at him, smiled, and said nothing more.

Will then thought of something, looked at him, and asked, "What did you want to see me about?"

"It's like this..." Rowan didn't beat around the bush and quickly told him about the biological laboratory, and finally said, "So, after comprehensive consideration, I want to entrust the biological laboratory to you."

"Huh?" Will was stunned for a moment. He pointed at himself and said in surprise, "Me? But I don't know anything about this."

"You don't need to understand these things. I'll leave the professional matters to the professionals. Will, you just need to coordinate them." Rowan shook his head and said.

"But, why me?" Will hesitated and continued to ask after hearing Rowan's words.

"Because I can only trust you, Will." Rowan's tone was very sincere. He looked at Will and said, "The biological laboratory is very important. It concerns the future of humanity. I really don't trust anyone else with it."

"Are you sure you can trust me with it?" Will pursed his lips and said, "We've only known each other for a few days, right?"

"But before we met, I already knew what kind of person you are, Will." Rowan looked at him with a smile and said:

"I believe that someone who would give up helping Klein accommodate the Uniqueness because Klein wasn't in good condition is a friend worth trusting."

Will was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, then puffed out his cheeks and said, "Okay, okay, I'll help. Anyway, I was going to work for you anyway... But let me say this first, I really don't have any experience in biological experiments. At most, I can manage the laboratory for you. Don't expect anything else."

"That's good enough." Rowan's smile became brighter. After a pause, he smiled again and said, "Actually, even if you don't know anything, Will, you might still be able to help with the experiments."

"Ah?" Will looked at him in confusion.

"In the field of scientific research, knowledge and strength are important, but luck is also an indispensable part..." Rowan then smiled and explained several things that were invented because of luck to Will, and finally concluded:

"So, Will, you just need to occasionally give those researchers some good luck, and you'll be a great help."

Will raised his eyebrows after hearing this and suddenly said, "You didn't plan this all along, did you?"

"What?" Rowan looked at him with a smile.

"You must have planned this all along..." Will seemed to have gotten the answer from his smile, and said, "No wonder you didn't need my luck, but you still... So you were waiting for me here."

"...Is Will angry?" Rowan didn't admit or deny it, but just asked.

"Why should I be angry? We were originally in a cooperative relationship. Isn't it normal to need each other's help?" Will looked at him in confusion, then sighed and said:

"It's just that I didn't expect you to want me to do this. Tsk, I thought I was just going to help you fight... Sigh, I feel like the responsibility on my shoulders has suddenly become heavier."

Will is a good person, at least in the Angel world, he's on the lawful good side.

Because of this, the responsibility of becoming the head of the biological laboratory did put some pressure on Will.

Rowan could naturally see what Will was worried about. He wasn't embarrassed about it, because if Will was an irresponsible person, he wouldn't have entrusted the matter of the biological laboratory to him.

Rowan just said: "Don't be too stressed. Although the biological laboratory is entrusted to you, even if the laboratory doesn't research anything in the end, no one can be blamed. Life will find its own way out. Even if the biological ascension route doesn't work, we can look for other routes."
