"Main body, do you understand the consequences of our frequent deaths now?"
A Source of Annihilation clone asked Green smugly, its personality somewhat resembling Little Eight's. In Green's eyes, this clone consisted of sixty percent joy, thirty percent anger, and five percent each of sorrow and melancholy.
"We are one entity to begin with. Why distinguish between you and me?"
Another Source of Annihilation clone consoled Green. It had a tolerant personality; in Green's eyes, this clone consisted of seventy percent joy and thirty percent grief.
"Hahahahaha! Main body, don't listen to those two bluffing you. A colorful life experience will continuously replenish and elevate your emotions. The emotional losses we cause you will gradually be made up for."
This clone consisted of fifty percent joy, forty percent happiness, and ten percent sadness.
"Hehehehehe..."
With a somewhat foolish grin, Green looked toward this clone. Compared to the other Source of Annihilation clones, this one was clearly far less lively. It consisted of one hundred percent joy.
Each Source of Annihilation clone underwent a random combination of emotions, producing countless different personalities.
Frequently causing these Source of Annihilation clones to die would gradually take away Green's emotions, reducing him to a being of absolute rationality. Though that was the pursuit of all low-level wizards, for a top-tier Stigmata Wizard like Green, it would destroy another balance.
Maintaining a higher degree of rational judgment at all times was how low-level wizards eliminated emotional interference and pursued knowledge more effectively.
Yet as emotions gradually faded, high-level wizards instead needed to continually enrich their emotional lives, remaining vigilant in preserving their feelings. Wizards pursued knowledge in order to control rules and fulfill their desires and ideals—not to become slaves to knowledge!
The subtle distinction between the two was truly difficult to put into words.
