Ectocollon, the Executioner of Fairness (5)

Good and evil stem from one's standpoint.

And a lifeform's standpoint was equivalent to its viewpoint.

But one's standpoint also stemmed from many things—race, civilization, education, family, friends...

It was the summation of everything a lifeform experienced throughout its life.

That sort of thing was genuinely asking a little too much of everyone.

Even complete Mechanical lifeforms, after evolving to a certain degree, would actually become unable to achieve the so-called Utterly Unfeeling state because of their gradually increasing humanity and bestiality, becoming filled with selfish desires and individualism instead.

It had nothing to do with the difference in strength.

Nothing to do with so-called authority.

Nothing to do with any needs.

To someone who had reached Utterly Unfeeling, possessed no selfish desires whatsoever, and felt
