Final Trial of Mankind

"Do you want to recommend him at all costs... What is the relationship between him and you... Can you tell me?"

"Haha, it's not a scandal or a special karma, it's just..."

"only?"

"I just hope that guy can have some vigor, well, some mother-in-law."

009 Unmotivated Man

To be honest, the man named Glenn Ledas, who was the temporary lecturer, was totally unmotivated.

Glenn, who succeeded the previous lecturer and took over all the compulsory courses of the second class of the second year, taught in black magic, white magic, alchemy, summoning, and then mythology, magic history, numerology, natural science, rune linguistics, Astrology, magic material science, magic tactics theory, and magic item manufacturing technique... In short, they just deal with it casually in the teaching of all subjects.

On the other hand, he has made great efforts in deliberately sloppy response.

In short, the enthusiasm for magic and the desire to explore mysterious things that everyone in the school should have had was completely absent in Glenn.

As a result, there was a strong estrangement and conflict between Glenn and the students and other lecturers, especially the student leader of the class he took over to teach-Sistina scolded him every day, but Glenn also No point in improving that attitude.Let alone improving, it's getting worse every day.

At the beginning, Glenn would give some explanations on the contents of the textbook, write some key points on the blackboard, and do some things as if he was in class, but he seemed to get bored after a while, and then gradually became a direct teacher. The contents of the textbook were copied on the blackboard intact, and then he finally found it troublesome, so he simply tore off the few pages of the textbook and pasted them directly on the blackboard.

In the end, even Glenn seemed to be bored with this kind of thing. When the matter developed to the stage where he began to nail the textbook directly to the blackboard, Sistina's anger finally reached its peak.

That's what happened in Glenn's fifth and final class that day, a week into his tenure as an instructor.

Sistina, who could no longer stand Glenn, launched a magician's duel. Of course, the result of the duel was that Glenn, who did not want to win, lost completely.

Of course, how could Glenn, who hated magic and lost himself because of a single blow, abide by the agreement he made with Sistina because of magic.

And this time's move also made Sistina completely disappointed in him.

With the passage of time, the conflict between Glenn and Sistina, who were living a decadent life as before, finally broke out because of a small opportunity.

And this opportunity is the use of so-called magic.

Sistina's answer is completely academic, the answer of studying and gnawing books in the ivory tower.

And Glenn's answer is downright pragmatic, or the answer of a decadent partner of justice after being hit by cruel reality.

That is to kill.

From Mu Chen's point of view, magic also depends on its purpose, if it is used well, it can help people. For example, the healing magic of white magic is much better than medicine in healing injuries.

It's a pity that when Glenn asked, only the tough-looking Sistina didn't expect this at all.

Moreover, in a sense, Glenn's words are not wrong.

The only ones who can use magic and receive favors are magicians. Ordinary people can neither use magic nor receive the favor of magic.

Although it is taken for granted, this is the most important reason why magic is useless. Magic is not of a nature that can directly benefit the general population like metallurgical technology or farming technology.

After all, the idea that "magic should be kept secret" is the common understanding of most magicians, and the inability of magic research results to benefit the general population is also hindered by this stubborn thinking.

So until now, magic is still a frightening and creepy power of demons to most people, and it is a rare commodity that has no chance to see or touch in daily life.

That's right, in fact magic can't be said to be directly useful to people. Although this is an opinion from the extreme snobbish point of view of ordinary people, it is indeed an unshakable fact.

Moreover, Glenn's remarks about the use of magic to kill people were even more extreme. Indeed, magic has many ways to hurt people, but magic is definitely not the only one.

However, Glenn is also a good-for-nothing. His original ideals were stimulated by reality, and he became decadent like this, and he even stimulated others' enthusiasm for learning magic.

However, it seems that he cannot be blamed. After all, he has no talent, he is just a simple ordinary person, and his only lover died to save him because of the [Angel Dust] incident a year ago. It is also normal to be decadent and disgusted with magic.

If you really want to blame him, I guess you can only blame him for being self-indulgent, showing off his abilities even though he has nothing, no wonder he is called "The Fool".

It's just that Mu Chen thinks that he may not be as good as him if he changes positions. At least, he may not be able to achieve the current achievements and strength as an ordinary person.

Moreover, most people who achieve great achievements in the world are not necessarily geniuses, but fools. Geniuses do not intend to do it at the beginning because they know that they cannot do it. The goal is to move forward. In the end, some people make the impossible possible, and the successful ones will go down in history.

That is to say, those who promoted the transformation of world civilization when Mu Chen was on Earth at that time.

For example, Newton, Edison or something.

They have said that success is one percent inspiration plus 90.00 percent perspiration.

Although it is useless to put in [-]% sweat without the [-]% inspiration, sweat is just as important.

Cough, far away.

In short, this debate ended with Glenn being slapped and Sistina crying.

And in the rest of the day's class, Glenn never showed up again.

……

After school, the evening sky has a soft glow.

After the incident with Sistina in the morning, Glenn skipped all the classes of the day and stayed on the roof balcony of the East Building of the college. He just stayed here for a whole day with nothing to do.

"...It's really not suitable for me!" He leaned his tired body casually on the iron railings around the roof, and muttered to himself blankly looking into the distance.

From the roof of this luxurious five-story school building, the entire campus can be seen, and these are almost exactly the same as before.

An entanglement of stone-paved walkways, sky courtyards, ancient castle-like school buildings, herb gardens, forest of enchantment, ancient ruins, and then teleportation towers—it's a picture of man-made architecture and natural products A strange scene mixed together.

Then there is the phantom city floating in the air as always.

"Well, how could it be suitable? The person who hates magic the most is going to be a magic lecturer. It really makes people laugh."

"It really makes people laugh. I didn't expect that you, who wanted to be a righteous magician, would be hit by reality to such a virtue. Sure enough, I read it right from the beginning, and you are at this level."

A voice came from behind Glenn. Glenn didn't need to turn around to know whose voice it was. At the same time, there was a cold thin blade on his neck.

"The speed of your decadence is really faster than I imagined."

"What else do you want from me when something like that happens?"

"I didn't ask you to do anything, it's up to you to choose." The thin blade turned into particles and disappeared, and Mu Chen walked from behind him to his side, leaning against the iron railing as well, "It's just that if you simply waste your life, in the future you I will definitely feel powerless when looking forward to power, and regret it. Although this world is not purely a world of the jungle, power is still necessary."

"I won't touch the most hated magic again."

"It's up to you, as long as you don't regret it."

Mu Chen is not an eloquent person, and it is easy to be cold when talking with him, because there is no common topic after a few words.

The biggest reason for this is that he is not interested in what most people like, and is only obsessed with what he likes.

Glenn, who fell into silence, suddenly recalled the name of the silver-haired girl who had been pestering him since he took office... I think it was Sith... I can't remember.

Forget it, it's all indifferent anyway.

"Really, that white-haired girl actually fought fiercely... Really, she was an arrogant guy from the first day..."

"It's just that you were too decadent and found fault with her seriously!"

"Sure enough, you've been watching from the sidelines, you voyeur."

"Hehe, voyeurism is beyond my abilities. The enchantment of this academy is useless to me." Mu Chen looked at the blue sky and smiled.

"...The magic is so great, is she an idiot?"

"This is just an academic vase idea of ​​studying in the ivory tower. It's normal, isn't it? Compared with people like you, it's a strange person!"

"That's true." Thinking of his own experience, Glenn laughed at himself, looking at the eyes in front of him without focus, it seemed that he was completely distracted and didn't know which dimension he had gone to.

Although he only observed her for ten days, there was only one thing that Glenn was very clear about, that is, this silver-haired girl really took magic seriously, and she did not hesitate to study magic every day in order to study magic.

She is a girl who turns a blind eye to the dark side and danger of magic, only longs for the gorgeous side of magic, and cares about the "truth of the world" that sounds good... just a child.

However, if that girl is said to be an immature child, then what is it that he is holding on to her?

"...I'm a stinky brat too."

Maybe he was envious of that silver-haired girl.

I envy the girl who can believe that magic is a wonderful thing without any doubts, and who can dedicate all her enthusiasm to study thoroughly—because she has no enthusiasm for anything.

"You just know, brat, you're only 19 years old, do you think you've grown up after a little more experience?" Mu Chen's words didn't look at the atmosphere at all, and the simple and rude words were enough to make many people hate him if.

"Do you think everyone can live forever like you and Celica? I'm an adult at my age."

"Ah, that's right! That's right. Next, I'll tell you a little story. Listen to it if you want to hear it, and don't listen to it if you don't want to."

010 The Magician of Justice and the Partner of Justice

Once upon a time, there was such a man in a certain world.

The story of a man who has more ideals than anyone else, and therefore is more desperate than anyone else.

That man's dream was naive.

I hope that everyone in this world can be happy, and I have been praying for this from the bottom of my heart.

All teenagers have embraced such an ideal, but after realizing the cruelty of life, they became disappointed and abandoned their childish ideals.

No matter what kind of happiness comes at the expense of a certain sacrifice, common sense like this, no matter what kind of child grows up, gradually understands.

But that man was different.

Maybe it's because he's stupider than anyone else, maybe he's broken somewhere, or maybe he's the kind of person who can be called a saint with a destiny that ordinary people can't understand.

Realizing that all life in this world will be weighed on the two balances of sacrifice and redemption, and that the trays on either side must never be left empty, he has determined his ambition to be a balance weigher since that day .

If you want to reduce the laments in this world more and more definitely, there is no other way to choose.

In order to save the tray on the side with even one more person, the tray on the other side with even one person missing must be overturned.

This is an act in which the minority must be killed in order for the majority to survive.

Therefore, the more he wanted to save people, the more he became good at killing people.

The man's hands were covered with layer after layer of blood, but he never backed down.

Regardless of whether the means are correct or not, regardless of whether the purpose is correct or not, it is just to make the balance more fair, and this is the only problem imposed on oneself.

Life does not distinguish between high or low, old or young, it is just a quantitative unit.

This man saves people indiscriminately and kills indiscriminately at the same time.

It was too late when he woke up.
