: The Speech Before the Statue of the Wind God

From 7:00 to 9:00 every night in Mond City is the busiest time on the huge square in front of the Aeolus Statue.

Although in the beginning, many people just habitually walked around and prayed to the gods after a day of hard work.

But the huge Fengshen Statue stared quietly, making people feel as if they were bathed in the sight of a god.

So gradually, there are more and more people, more and more.

So much so that the Knights of the West Wind had to expand and plan this large square again and again.

And now, this place has become a very distinctive place in Mond.

Foreign friends who come to Mond are ashamed to say that they have been to Mond if they don’t come here for a walk at night.

After all, here, you can hear the most pleasing music, the best singing, and various talents and performances.

But today, in this kind of noisy but always inadvertently attracting people’s attention, a different commotion appeared.

Amber led a small group of West Wind knights, and built a simple platform on a step in front of the Fengshen statue.

After the preparations were completed, she confirmed all the matters before taking Qin and a middle-aged man onto the stage.

“Hi everyone, I’m Amber.”

With the eyes of God on the piano shining brightly, Amber’s voice was spread far away.

As if using a huge speaker, she suppressed the noise of the entire large square with a single greeting.

Many people turned their heads to look in confusion, but they didn’t know what happened.

“Today, with the permission of Grand Commander Falga, I have joined the Zephyr Knights and become a knight protecting Mond.”

“But that’s not the reason why I’m standing here now, disturbing everyone with such a loud voice.”

“In the past few days, I believe many of you know what happened in several newspapers.”

“I’m standing here now, under the watchful eyes of Lord Barbatos, to thoroughly determine this matter!”

After a short pause, Amber continued,

“Mond’s freedom has never been clearly explained and defined.”

“In this free country, no one can use their own reasoning to speak of a freedom that is recognized by most people.”

“To be honest, this is a very sad thing.”

“Because it means that we Mond people are actually just pretending to understand freedom.”

After saying these words, a buzzing sound immediately resounded.

Some people with small tempers and more violent tempers even yelled angrily.

But Amber didn’t care about it, and roared directly, suppressing all voices,

“So what exactly is Mond’s freedom?”

“What exactly is the freedom that Lord Barbatos left us?”

“Are we really free?”

After yelling, she nodded to the man beside her.

So the man raised his hand, and a string of fire flew out, directly outlining two large characters in the air – [Freedom].

Using the element of fire to draw text in the air as a blackboard newspaper was something Amber thought of later.

So compared to the free assistant that Qin wanted from the West Wind Knights, this man was hired from the Adventurer’s Association by spending half a million moras out of her own pocket.

But the effect is really good, and it’s worth it.

Noticing that many people started to gather around, Amber concentrated his energy and said in a relatively calm tone,

“I ask everyone a question.”

“If all hold the same view of liberty, and only one disagrees.”

“Then it’s right for everyone to tell this person to shut up?”

“If this person is Lord Barbatos.”

“And before everyone shuts him up, shut up everyone first.”

“Then, is this person also correct?”

Pausing for a while, and giving the audience some time to think, she said again,

“So now, no matter whether you agree or disagree with what I said, please calm down first.”

“After I have expounded my views, I welcome everyone’s rational thinking and discussion.”

“The truth becomes clearer the more it is debated.”

The flames raged, and the huge words [Truth, the more debates become clearer] were placed above Amber’s head.

At this time, Amber has entered the state.

She no longer cared about all the various gazes focused on herself and the buzzing discussions among the crowd, and took a step forward directly.

“Then first of all, I’ll put my views on freedom here first.”

“The freedom I think is that everyone can pursue their own happiness in their own way.”

Comparing with the schematic diagram of the board newspaper in his hand, the man stretched out his hand, skillfully driving the elemental force, and imprinted this sentence.

“but!”

Amber emphasized his tone and said seriously,

“Humans are social creatures and cannot survive alone.”

“So the freedom we pursue will soon affect others and society.”

“In this wayIn this case, I divided freedom into three levels from the perspective of [individual], [between friends] and [whole Mond]. ”

“And tonight, what we are going to discuss is personal freedom.”

Watching the man write freedom in the air according to the blackboard drawing, and also draw three lines, respectively write [Personal], [Between Friends] and [Mond].

Amber nodded in satisfaction, then said,

“But before discussing, please remember that there is a premise here.”

“That is, an individual’s behavior only concerns himself, and will not have any impact on anyone other than himself.”

“Only within this scope is personal freedom.”

“Then, here comes the problem!”

“Under such circumstances, does freedom mean that as long as my actions do not affect others, no matter what I do, I should not be interfered with?”

…

…

…

The first speech was a success.

Or in other words, it’s hard not to succeed.

In addition to the foundation and reputation laid by newspapers at the beginning, the methods used by Amber are also ahead of their time.

Using the spread of the wind element, let your voice completely crush the crowd.

Then use the fire element to write key points in the air, which is not only cool, but also like a teacher giving a lecture, making it easier for the audience below to understand.

Finally, those who have objections are invited to the stage and debated on the spot.

Let the speech not only have the effect of a speech, but also a variety show.

For the Mond people whose entertainment programs basically only include music, poetry, and wine, this is a complete explosion.

Coupled with the ongoing topic, it is also the [freedom] that the Mond people are most proud of.

So it was easy to calm down and follow the thoughts driven by Amber to think.

And when many people express their enthusiasm for the same thing at the same time, at the same place, a huge appeal will appear.

This is an effect that no matter how extravagant the newspapers say, it will never be achieved.

It can be said that Amber’s speech this time finally inspired the Mond people to think about freedom.

Then this wave of thoughts rides on the breeze and wakes up a poet from a long rest.
