At the beginning, unlimited skill tree!

Maybe there’s not even a score.

Whether it’s against Eastern United or Elkia——

For Stephen, he should not be a cheap talent, not to mention that for the purpose of multi-racial merger, if one race has victims - that will have inestimable adverse effects.

There is no way a miko would not understand this self-evident truth——

But even so...

"Hatsuse Ino, he is undoubtedly a capable talent and a man who has supported me since the early days of the Eastern Conference.

Not to mention that if he were asked to die for the benefit of the Eastern Union, he would answer "yes" to the man - such a valuable talent cannot be said to be cheap -

However, he achieved great results in the end and was an impeccable man. "

The miko just looked up at the moon and said sadly.

For the sake of profit, if even such a person can be easily given up——!

"Then I will be abandoned at any time - who can believe that kind of person!!" This is Stephen's heartfelt voice,

Almost pointedly pointed out the disadvantages of this game method.

People also feel uncomfortable inside——

Even if they knew that the Miko and the others might be doing what they did to maximize their profits,

But the epic before us is not a simple story, but something that people regard as real happening on the other side of the world.

Who likes to see their own people being sold and sacrificed as goods——

Not to mention, even if it is a simple story, no one will like such a plot.

and--

If Hatsuse Ino, the grandfather, died,

People subconsciously looked at Izuna at this time.

He found Izuna sitting there alone and blankly.

"I-Izuna feels like that-" At this time, Stephen still wanted to find allies to fight against that concept.

However--

That leaves half of the sentence ‘Okay? ’ It hasn’t been exported yet,

But Izuna, who was sitting on the ground some distance away, hugging her knees as if enduring something, made Stephen unable to say any more.

Although it was difficult to see clearly due to the darkness—Izuna's voice could be heard.

"...Grandpa has realized it a long time ago, Des..."

Far away from the fire, with only the moonlight and starlight shining, Izuna's expression could not be seen.

"...Whether it's grandpa's heartbeat or his smell, it's always a good sound and a good taste, Des."

But Izuna's trembling voice.

The words with a cry - even on the dark seaside, they truthfully revealed her expression.

"I don't want grandpa to die... But as long as Izuna endures it alone, that way - then, that way! More people will... be saved, t-s-"

A scene at the beach flashed through Stephen's mind.

After the farce at the beach - when deciding whether to groom Sora or Izuna.

Izuna, who probably hated being touched by Ino, walked towards Ino without hesitation. (I made a mistake before. It was Ino who was brushing off her hair.)

——She understood...that would be the last time.

Izuna had accepted this result from the beginning.

Beastmen——Have five senses that are beyond the norm. At that time, everyone had already communicated with each other.

Stephen was the only one who didn't know, but——

"—Even so, you still feel sad, don't you?"

The young girl's tears, the scene, and the trembling voice brought a different kind of spiritual impact and shock.

Something soft in people's hearts seemed to be touched.

Facing Izuna like this, even a hard-hearted person can't say that 'that battle plan' was completely correct now, right?

Chapter 1,240 Just hope that those two people will fall from the altar!

Even if we agree rationally,

But it’s absolutely unacceptable emotionally!

People who were moved by the scene in front of them fell into silence.

"I'm not sad - I just... don't understand something, Des."

He clenched his teeth, as if exhaling.

Izuna asked that question in a trembling voice.

"...Because Sora said - no one will die, no one will suffer, Des!... However, why - Izuna will suffer, Des? Is Izuna weird, Des...!? "

—— Tears fell like rain.

Even in the darkness, Izuna could tell from her voice that she was shedding big tears.

But Stephen - instead felt that the blood in his head was gradually fading.

Hatsuse Izuna——This child is too young.

Too obedient, too pure, too smart—too well-behaved. To have such a child, to have a girl who is only eight years old, to compete in games that she doesn't want to compete with, to even feel guilty about happy things, to have her bear the heavy burden of the mainland territory.

This fact made Stephen realize:

- Eastern United's approach - doesn't start now.

——Sacrificing the minority for the sake of the majority has become commonplace.

"Sacrifice...the few for the sake of the many"? !

Everyone's hearts were shocked...

This simple but extremely clear truth allowed them to see the cruel side of the world.

Are the miko and the others right?

For the orcs who finally established the third largest country among the sixteen races,

People want to denounce this kind of thing, but they can't find the right reason.

The real situation is that the orcs seem to have flourished under this mode of action, from a low-sequence race to a creature from the bottom...

It is something that even "life" that has expanded the land area to a high level cannot do.

Facts always speak louder than words.

If Blank couldn't do better——

Under the influence of the epic, it is impossible to say that there will be some careerists who shout to sacrifice the few to save the many... Everyone must be a partner of justice.

For this reason - a high-sounding excuse, isn't it ready for them now?

As long as it is said that it is imitating the beastman miko, imitating the Eastern Union... in order to make everyone happy, it will be fine.

And in the immersive epic, at this moment——

"This is how you established the Eastern Conference by making children cry, right? It's so outrageous."

——In the past, the beastman race was divided into several tribes, and the disputes continued.

It only took half a century to unite them and promote the Eastern Union to become a great power——

Stephen felt as if she had glimpsed something, and she accused the witch even with contempt.

However, the miko met her gaze head on and responded:

“Sacrificing the few for the sake of the many—that’s not even a necessary evil, it’s a necessity. If you want to take everyone into consideration - then everyone will only advocate their own wishes, how will the policy be implemented... little girl. "

…Stephen couldn’t refute.

In fact - these words of the witch just illustrate the mentality of most people in power at the moment.

She was so devoid of fear and shame that she regarded it as "inevitable".

This is the key that breaks the balance of ordinary people’s dreams and fantasies——

No matter how hard we try our best... not to cause anyone any loss, it is impossible to achieve complete equality even if King Arthur is resurrected.

People are silent...

Don't say anything else - just think a little bit about the past epics.

The man who is the king does not have some cold and rational side.

Even Jin Shining, known as the wise king, was a tyrant in his youth.

At this time, Jibril couldn't help but speak:

"Is there anything else Xiaoduo is dissatisfied about? Sacrificing just one person can save two races that are about to perish; it can also strengthen Elkia's national power and be one step closer to establishing a federation with the east - so you What more could you ask for?”

——Stephen still couldn’t refute.

"Could it be——" Jibril continued.

“Do you think it’s possible to conquer the world without sacrifice and dissatisfaction—no, to say the least, it’s possible to take back the borders of Elkia?”

"…………!"

Jibril's words shocked not only Stephen but also everyone.

Even they began to feel shaken.

It’s too difficult——

If you want to have both, win without sacrificing anyone... Even Blank can't achieve such a miracle every time, right? !

(But blank can do it...)

Jibril said with a more provocative smile:

"Only for the people around me, I don't want them to suffer——

It's really selfish to the extreme. "

Stephen gritted his teeth - she knew it very well.

By sacrificing only one person, you can gain two races.

Save two races that would perish if left alone.

If it's not worth sacrificing Ino alone, then——

"——So what...!"

Stephen spoke resolutely.

Seeing a trembling Izuna in her vision, she screamed as if she was risking her life.

"Whether it's selfish or self-interested, you can call it whatever you like, but even so, there's only one thing I can say for sure!

That is to use this method to merge all races - that is impossible! ! "

…

"Merge all races... It's just a ridiculous fantasy." Some elves muttered when they saw this.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the elf species—“their representative race”—appear.

But to be honest - she was not at all optimistic about Blank's attempt to merge all races.

It’s the same even if the current head of Nirvalian is working as an undercover agent over there...

Now I see that it was just because of the sacrifice of a perverted muscular old... beastman that he became like this.

The elf had a disdainful and arrogant expression on his face.

Even among simple elves, there are some special cases.

Especially the elves who attach great importance to bloodline and racial status.
