Justice-How Many Evils Are Committed in Your Name! (Part 3) / Kevin the "Dad Slayer"
"And tell Black Wind, tell that sleazy bastard to stop hiding in that dark room picking his toes and instead give those little bitches a good talking-to... cough cough... I mean, teach them a lesson."
The Demon Queen's resolute response seemed to imply an attempt to escalate the situation.
Atrox was somewhat taken aback, puzzled by Morgana's elaborate scheme.
"Your Queen, are those little tricks played by those brats really that serious?"
However, at this moment, Morgana's expression turned solemn, and her gaze became deep.
"Ato, you don't understand. Sometimes a single word can be more devastating than a knife..."
"Even a single word can lead to the rise of a civilization, or it can turn allies against each other..."
Atrox was still completely baffled, and couldn't help but look at the Sword of Command in his hand, muttering to himself.
Is it really that exaggerated?
Morgana stood up, rolled her eyes at her loyal subordinate, and gave a soft snort.
"How do you think the war between angels and demons started? It's just a difference of eight words in two sentences!"
At this moment, Atrox's expression hardened, and he was speechless.
That's right, why did the angels and demons go to war?
It's all just a difference between "Just Order" and "Fallen Freedom".
Now, Atrox finally understood why the Queen had reacted so strongly to the actions of the Devil Street and Lord Kevin's words.
If a balance can truly be found between the two, perhaps the war between angels and demons will truly come to an end.
"Ato, do you like fighting?"
Morgana looked up at the chandelier above, then lowered her eyes slightly, looking intently at the veteran she had brought from Kunsa Star.
"I am willing to fight for the Queen!"
Without hesitation, the Demon Warrior before him pounded his chest with his right fist in response.
"Alright, alright, do you know how loyal you are? Go back and get this done!"
Morgana waved her hand impatiently, shooing the subordinate away.
The silence in the empty hall was broken by the sound of tables and chairs being pulled.
"Fighting for the Queen" shows that he himself did not have a pure desire for killing.
The Demon Queen rose and stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the street now imbued with a touch of everyday life, and at the few angels who had mingled among them, observing curiously. A slight smile played on her lips.
Now, I'm kind of looking forward to seeing just how much change you can bring to all of this.
Chapter 1063, Section 1110: Justice, how many evils in your name! (Third update)
Meanwhile, inside the angel's residence in Shangqing City.
The high-ranking angel, who had just returned from visiting the demon wounded soldiers' camp, briefly inspected the encampment before frowning and beckoning a short-haired young angel.
"Qing Qing, why are there fewer people in our camp again?"
The shy little girl with short hair hesitated as she looked up.
"Sister Luo Luan, they seem to be investigating the demons' backgrounds, to see where Morgana recruited her people from..."
"I think these girls are too restless; they can't stand the loneliness in the camp and are wandering around aimlessly!"
The high-ranking angel's words hit the nail on the head, leaving Qing Qing embarrassed and looking down in embarrassment.
"What time is it? You're still thinking about playing!"
"This is enemy territory, not the Angel Nebula! Be more careful, or you'll be betrayed without even realizing it."
The high angel frowned and snorted coldly, then began to berate the little girl in front of her who was covering for her sisters.
"But I've also seen the demons in the living quarters, and they didn't seem to have much ill intentions towards us angels..."
"Besides, aren't we currently forming an alliance?"
Qing Qing lowered her head, fiddling with the hem of her clothes, and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"No malicious intent? That's because there are Void Creature outside forcing us to act."
"Otherwise, these demons will immediately turn on us and chop us up!"
"In short, remember this: no demon is a good one!"
The high-ranking angel tapped Qing Qing on the head, earnestly correcting her wavering values.
"Sister Luo Luan, does that demon you often visit count too?"
"Calculate!"
"Didn't he risk his life to hold off a Terror Hunter for you during the great retreat?"
"One thing at a time!"
"So you go to the Demon Wounded Soldiers' Camp every day just to see him?"
Qing Qing mustered her courage and asked the question that had been nagging at her, only to be met with the dark expression on the face of the squad commander beside her.
"The demons saved us. If they were all evil, why didn't they just let us stay where we were and wait to die?"
"Furthermore, our people also saved the demon. If we're going to eradicate evil, why should we help these guys?"
"Isn't it said that justice and evil are irreconcilable?"
"Children's families have so many problems!"
Luo Luan slapped the little sparrow on the head, but this only stirred up a stubbornness and youthful rebelliousness in Qing Qing's heart.
"Sister Luo Luan, I went to the living area and something seems off!"
"Those transformed demons came from many places. Some were bewitched by Morgana because they were starving and freezing, and in order to survive..."
"Some had their families slaughtered by powerful enemies and wanted revenge; others were exiled and tortured on their own planets for offending their lords..."
"They will cheer for victory and heroism, they will suffer from Affliction, and they will grieve when they see their brothers and sisters sacrificed..."
"They have souls and hearts; their nature is not solely evil. We cannot exterminate them all!"
Although Morgana widely spreads Fallen Free Thought, what she wants are strong individuals who can control their desires, not slaves driven by them.
The proud Demon Queen clearly looked down on those lowly soldiers who only knew how to destroy and vent their lust.
Therefore, although the composition of the demon army is complex, its nature is not much different from that of the angels.
Otherwise, they would all be ungrateful, despicable, and shameless scoundrels who would have sold Morgana out long ago.
Luo Luan's eyes flickered, her expression serious.
"Are you sympathizing with them?"
However, this seemingly shy and refined young girl nodded, but then shook her head seriously.
"Where there is oppression, there is resistance. I'm just thinking that perhaps the reason evil exists is simply because we haven't done enough..."
"Compared to eliminating demons, shouldn't angels be doing something that prevents evil from arising at its root?"
Luo Luan was immediately stunned by Qing Qing's grand dream, and looked the shy little girl up and down with surprise.
Seeing that her superior had stopped tapping her head, Qing Qing carefully lowered her hand and, unable to contain her curiosity, asked another question.
"Sister Luo Luan, did angels and demons really Oldest One from the same genetic template?"
Regarding the established truth, Luo Luan glanced at the inquisitive little girl but did not give a direct answer.
"Morgana's former name was Liang Bing. She was the Apocalypse King of the Merlot Heavenly Court and the younger sister of Queen Kaisa..."
Oh, so demons could have become angels, and the reason they've fallen to their current state is simply because they took the wrong path...
If...
The girl was lost in thought, unaware of the slight upturn at the corners of Commander Luo Luan's lips as he quietly departed.
As one of the few veteran active angels who participated in the battle on Kunsa Star, Luo Luan witnessed the fall of wave after wave of angels and the rise of wave after wave of demons.
It seems that evil can never be eradicated.
At the same time, the existence of the fallen angel Ruo Ning and the Heavenly Scum Hua Ye proves that angels are not as pure and flawless as justice portrays them to be.
Moreover, as a high-ranking official, Luo Luan was well aware that every year, angels who made mistakes were stripped of their divine power and exiled...
Therefore, the answer may not lie in identity or race, but rather in the essence of the individual's soul.
Forget it, these things are none of my concern. I should think about where my former boss will arrange for me to retire and enjoy my retirement.
As for her former superior, his name was Heavenly Base King Hexi...
Meanwhile, aboard the Heavenly Blade No. 5, Hexi, dressed in a silver cloak and overcoat, rested her chin on her hand and looked down at the entire Yuqing City, her gaze sweeping over the conspicuous black dots passing by on the street.
"Want a cup of the milk tea that Lian Shan and the others made to warm you up?"
A gentle voice came from behind her. Hexi turned around and took the steaming, fragrant white porcelain cup, her expression playful.
"Based on the theory of shared blood ties, we forge bonds and plant a seed of coexistence in the hearts of both parties..."
"One Bible, two interpretations, creating a black-and-white argument in Chinese philosophy..."
"Finally, they created two pilot programs for cultural promotion: one advocating for the fall of angels by the devils, and the other promoting the purification of the devils' hearts from evil..."
"You rascal, you're always stirring up trouble everywhere, and now I'm supposed to be indebted to you? Even Morgana would probably think you're completely devoted to the devil..."
"Who exactly is the real devil, huh?"
Kevin took a sip of the drink, a blend of rich milk flavor and refreshing tea aroma, and leaned against the railing with a calm smile.
"The more a principle is debated, the clearer it becomes; the more a truth is discussed, the more lucid it becomes."
"Only through clashes of ideas can sparks of fusion be generated."
"As for who will merge with whom, that depends on their own abilities."
"It's good to have ideas and debate them. Door Opening communication is better than closing yourself off and resorting to shouting and killing."
"Instead of considering a fair and square defeat of the opponent's spirit and rhetoric, they first resort to the method of destroying the enemy's soul and body..."
"If this continues, you'll never escape this vicious cycle of mutual destruction."
When Hexi heard Kevin subtly criticizing her old friend's autocratic ways again, she kicked him in annoyance.
"Take it easy, this is our angels' territory, the domain illuminated by the light of [Just Order]!"
Kevin sighed deeply, slapped his hands on the railing, and expressed his melancholy.
"Justice, how many evils are committed in your name!"
"Pah! You only dare to jump around like this because that tomboy Keisha is asleep. Believe me, if she wakes up and hears this, she'll beat you up right away!"
Hexi snorted coldly, pointing out the reason why someone had become so audacious.
That's right, Keisha is asleep and hasn't woken up yet...
P. S.: Ideological conflicts and the transformation from angel to demon need to be explored step by step; I feel it's quite difficult to bring them to life in writing.
Having read some fanfiction about the God of War, the truce between angels and demons usually involves simultaneously dealing with Keisha and Liang Bing.
Personally, I feel that this is no longer a question of whether the two of them want to fight, but rather a matter of incomprehension between the two races of angels and demons.
Hopefully, these chapters will lay the groundwork for some of the changes.
I want to write something worth considering, and everyone is welcome to share their opinions.
What happens next after Keisha is pushed aside will only make things more exciting.
Chapter 1064, Section 1111: "Killing Dad" Kevin
After the last battle to intercept the B7274 asteroid belt, the three-way coalition forces narrowly won and successfully retreated to the Star Fortress.
Queen Holy Kaisa herself seemed to have some problems. She handed over command to Heavenly Base King Hexi, gave a few brief instructions, and then fell into a deep sleep.
To this day, the King of Angels remains unawakened.
