"Sorry, sir, but I must point out that if none of us used titles, it would inevitably create confusion regarding identity. In the big family of the Interstellar Council, we should value our professional identities over our racial identities. Otherwise, there would be suspicions of racial discrimination..."
A very discordant voice suddenly rang out. Strange turned to look and found that the robot standing beside him, serving tea and water, had actually raised an objection at this moment. This robot was the Executive Secretary controlled by the Supreme Intelligence.
"The Interstellar Council doesn't allow racial discrimination?" Strange asked.
"Uh..."
The question caught the Supreme Intelligence off guard. The other staff members immediately sat upright and began exchanging glances at faster-than-light speed, their minds whirring as they tried to figure out what the Speaker meant.
Seeing that it did not answer, Strange pressed on. "So you mean I have to treat every being in the universe equally? Including robots like you and Demon Gods?"
