Bright's eyes widened, his expression turning stunned and blank. "You want to... overthrow the Federation?"
Xiao Ran asked in return, "Is that difficult?"
"Th-this..." Bright immediately felt that Xiao Ran was another conspirator bent on destroying world peace. Shaking his head, he said, "This isn't a matter of whether it's difficult. It's fundamentally impossible. The Federation will never collapse for reasons like these, and you don't have the power to dismantle it. But even if the Original Constitution really poses the kind of threat to the current Federation that you claim, all that would replace it would be a new Federation, just like the previous times."
"The Federation has grown into a colossal entity. No matter what happens, this world can never truly change. And the peace we have now was won only after countless wars. If anyone wants to start another war, thousands upon thousands of people will stand up to protect this peace."
Xiao Ran immediately looked at Bright as though he were an idiot, with a hint of pity in his eyes. "Do you not know how deeply every colonial resident in space resents the Federation? Or do you not know how much the people of space hate Earth's residents? Or perhaps you don't know that the Federation has squeezed the space colonies until they can barely endure it?"
"The only reason the Federation still exists is because idiots like you willingly serve as its dogs. It is also because the Bist Family did not reveal the Original Constitution at the most suitable time. Likewise, the Zabi family kept talking about uniting the space colonies, yet insisted on persecuting those same colonies. There are many, many other reasons. If even one of those things had changed, the Federation would have ceased to be the Federation long ago."
