Shirou Emiya doesn't want to work overtime
Chapter 42
When Emiya knew about such atrocities but no one tried to stop them, he had already expected this result.
Here, I'm afraid the law has lost its role.
It has turned into oppression of the people.
"Kill him?"
Emiya sneered in his heart, will it work?
When he went to this mansion, Riva also told him some basic information.
But Emiya has always been skeptical about this, so he didn't believe what Riva said.
But now it seems that Mr. Riva did not deceive himself.
This man is indeed a scumbag.
However, a mere baron will not be punished by the laws of the empire.
It is conceivable that the upper class of the empire is corrupt.
Before Emiya continued to think about it, Daidas in front of him was obviously unwilling to wait, and he would not stop his actions because of Emiya's thinking.
"Bang!"
The next moment, two powerful battle axes slashed fiercely on the strange samurai sword in Emiya's hand.
The violent air wave blew the man lying on the ground backwards.
Daidas showed a smile on his face, and the strength in his hand increased again. Daidas had never been afraid of anyone in terms of strength.
He seemed to have forgotten how his battle axe was knocked away before.
"Breath of the Moon, Land Type, Evernight Lone Moon, Mujian"
Emiya suddenly raised his strength, and the blade in his hand quickly slashed forward, and countless round moon blades and wind blades burst out in front of Emiya.
"Puff--!"
In an instant, Daidas was covered with scars and blood spurted out.
"How is it possible!"
Under the moonlight, Daidas flew backwards with a bloody arc.
In Emiya's opinion, his speed was too slow.
The only thing worthy of Emiya's praise was his physique and strength.
With such a slow speed, it is no wonder that he was killed instantly by Brand, and Daidas could only deal with ordinary people without imperial tools.
It is said that fighting with strong people can gain more experience, but in fact, he may not have encountered any strong people at all.
"Is killing him the only way?"
After knocking Daidas down, Shirou Emiya continued to ask Riva.
"There is no other way. Even if he is imprisoned in the empire, it is only a matter of time before he comes out."
Riva sighed.
"What about the civilians? What about their families?"
"I am afraid they will become his burial objects."
Riva told the truth without any cover-up.
In the eyes of the nobles of the empire, the civilians are a group of talking beasts, a tool for their own entertainment.
"A deformed country!"
Emiya closed his eyes and sighed. Apart from killing him, Emiya could do nothing.
Will abusing him bring those dead back to life?
He saw the women lying on the ground looking at him with pleading eyes.
A ray of silver light flashed across the man's body.
A head flew up and fell to the ground beside him.
Seeing this, the women who only had one breath left were also satisfied and lifeless.
She didn't even think of returning her suffering to the man.
"Can I know about them?"
The strange weapon in Emiya's hand dissipated, and his eyes were full of guilt.
Leva had no idea where Emiya's guilt came from, as they had clearly become the embodiment of justice this time.
"Are we going to take care of them? I'll have someone give them some compensation."
Leva had seen kind people before, and he knew what Emiya was thinking.
But in the empire, this approach would be useless.
"No, no."
Emiya shook his head.
He knew very well that those nobles could already arrest people, not to mention the assets of civilians.
Giving compensation to those people would only hurt them more.
It's like you gave a beggar a large sum of money, and those who saw it would beat him up and take all the money from him.
Besides, no matter how valuable the property was, it couldn't heal the pain of a person's death.
This kind of kindness was a deadly poison to those civilians.
Even though Liva deliberately drove the carriage towards the prosperous area of the empire, Emiya also observed all kinds of bad things happening in the corners of the empire.
His eyes were not for show, and he could observe things that many people could not observe.
Originally, he thought that it was only because of the constant war in the empire that the finances and public security in the towns were not good.
War is very costly for the economy and food.
Emiya originally thought that as long as the war was over, the empire would restore public security and everything would get better.
But the baron has the ability to trample on civilians like this, what about the upper class?
The empire has long been completely corrupt.
Every day, countless people are exposed on the streets. It is obviously not a battlefield, but it is comparable to a battlefield. It is extremely difficult for civilians to survive in it.
No matter what kind of support Emiya gives to those civilians, there will be no results in such an empire.
The kindness of one person cannot soothe the evil of the world after all.
Chapter 67: Corruption from top to bottom
The main road of the imperial capital is still bustling with people coming and going, and the shouting is endless.
Such a lively atmosphere reminded Emiya of the days when he was in Yoshiwara Yukuo.
It was also extremely prosperous there, but compared to Yukuo, the prosperity of the empire was only superficial. In every dark alley, countless people were bullied.
Not only the upper class was corrupt, but also the common people.
Bullying the weak and abusing others were commonplace among the upper class and the common people in the empire.
Emiya was walking on the street, while in the alley on the side, several people in tattered clothes were punching and kicking a child who looked very thin.
"What are you looking at!"
As if he noticed Emiya's gaze, a man with a relatively strong figure came out.
Those people in tattered clothes also stopped their actions and looked over here.
Judging from Emiya's dress and temperament, he didn't look like a noble.
What's more, those nobles didn't care about these things at all. He would be very happy to see these things.
He might even applaud and give a tip to those who committed violence.
The frail child also looked in the direction of Emiya.
There was no sign of asking for help in his eyes, he just begged Emiya to leave quickly.
Emiya suddenly remembered what happened when he and Shinji were in middle school.
That was a boy surrounded by a group of bad boys.
Emiya and Shinji rescued him from the hands of the bad boys.
But the boy didn't appreciate it, but cursed.
If Emiya hadn't stopped him, with Shinji's temper, he would have quietly attacked the boy.
However, Emiya could never forget his pale face.
It was as if Emiya and the others didn't rescue him, but pushed him into the abyss.
It wasn't until a few days later that Emiya saw the boy who was covered with bruises and almost losing his breath from under the bridge.
If Emiya hadn't passed by, the consequences would have been disastrous. He never thought that these bad boys would do such a heartless thing.
This is murder.
Just when Emiya was about to find those bad guys to argue, the boy lying on the bed grabbed his hand and kept shaking his head at him.
At this time, Emiya realized that he and Shinji did not do anything right that day.
It was impossible for him and Shinji to stay by the side of this young man for 24 hours.
These bad guys had no way to deal with Emiya and Shinji, so they could only vent their anger on this boy.
In front of these bad guys, he would at most be beaten up and then hand over all the money.
But because of the appearance of Emiya and Shinji, he was seriously injured and hospitalized, suffering irreversible damage.
Emiya could not solve the problem fundamentally, so things turned out like this.
If he suppressed those bad guys with absolute strength and made them no longer have the courage to bully others, perhaps such a cruel thing would not happen.
Emiya could only clench his fists tightly.
Did he really beat up those civilians?
Those people were also victims in the empire, but they transferred their pain to others and became new perpetrators.
Emiya does not belong to the empire, and dealing with them is not the same as dealing with those bad guys.
Perhaps it was just Emiya's behavior today that led to the demise of several families.
He could also see that these people had scars from being whipped.
Perhaps it was for work, or perhaps they were bullied by another abuser.
No one knew whether these people were the backbone of some families.
And Emiya could not stay in the empire forever, nor could he bring the child with him.
What would happen if he brought him with him? He had no place to arrange him.
Emiya was now a clay Buddha crossing the river. He himself did not know whether he could survive in such a place, let alone help the child.
Helping him might just make him end his life earlier.
This kind of thing happened everywhere in this empire.
If you want to save them, the best way is to change the empire from beginning to end.
Only by solving the corruption of the empire can these people be truly changed.
The entire empire is now rotten to the core. Those oppressed people do not choose to resist, but to oppress those who are weaker than themselves.
Emiya felt sad for this country and felt powerless.
They were just the distorted products of a sick empire.
