Chapter 529 The Priority of Justice
The so-called group is a common composition of seeking common ground while reserving differences. Most intelligent creatures need to "seek common ground" rather than tolerate "difference", especially in some backward thinking, narrow vision, and low per capita education level When there is a "heterogeneous" different from most people in a group, the group will reject that "heterogeneous", and even oppress the so-called "heterogeneous" together to show their "common characteristics" .
And if no one corrects or limits this distorted "group mentality," a dark desire to persecute will breed in people's hearts, and it won't take long for a little bit of discrimination to turn into indifference. Violence and real hostility, and if a little feudal superstition is added to match people's mentality of shirking responsibility and venting their grievances, it is inevitable to turn the discriminated object into the real persecuted person.
The current rabbit people obviously have this kind of serious unreasonable "persecution". become real fear, hatred, and anger, and baseless rhetoric and nonsense can become "truth" in the minds of foolish people.
Especially with the distorted racial characteristic that rabbits like to bully the weak, a "evil girl" hated and persecuted by the entire rabbit tribe was born.
Hearing the rabbits happily cursing the evil woman in their mouths, the first one who couldn't stand it was not the female knight Audrey Linda, but Claire who just ate a chicken leg. As the rabbits discussed more and more voices Well, Claire, who is a trainee-level professional, of course heard what they were discussing clearly.
Although due to the death of her most beloved sister, Claire's heart is filled with anger and hatred almost all the time, but even so, when unfair things happen to her, the flame of justice in Claire's heart will still burn involuntarily.
Seeing some ignorant rabbitmen inexplicably persecuting a girl who didn't make any mistakes, how could the righteous boy tolerate this kind of thing happening in front of him? In fact, not long after the rabbitmen started discussing, Claire stood up quite angrily.
"Claire, what are you going to do"?
Seeing her apprentice suddenly stand up aggressively, Audrey Linda, who knows Claire very well, naturally understands what her apprentice wants to do. Now Claire looks like she is going to rush out to have sex with those illiterate rabbits. Just like the big debate, Audrey Linda had to quickly hold down the angry boy with grudge.
"Mentor, why stop me? The girls these guys are talking about are obviously not even professionals. Those so-called crimes are inexplicable nonsense. They persecute a child like that. Isn't such a guy evil?"
Well, the bunny people are really "lucky", because of their drunken complaints, they were actually considered evil by a "justice envoy" of a kind and lawful camp, if it wasn't for the more rational and mature Audrey Linda held Claire , Just based on the drunken words of these rabbitmen, the "evil" of the entire rabbitman tribe today may be "purified" by more than half.
But fortunately, the fat bunny man has not spoken at this time, and the bottom line of Audrey Linda's tolerance has not been touched. The female knight who pushed her apprentice back to the chair said to Claire in a deep voice while continuing to block her voice with her grudge. :
"Child, you are still young, and your judgment of evil is not accurate enough! These villagers are not necessarily out of dark hearts, they may just be exaggerated after drinking, or they may just listen to rumors, and it is more likely that they are just pandering to others Forget it, although what they did can’t really be called “good”, but it would be too arbitrary to immediately judge them as evil.”
After a pause, Audrey Linda stared at Claire's pupils with a more serious expression and continued:
"Remember, child, justice has always been spread and enforced voluntarily and only voluntarily. There is no difference between justice and evil imposed on others. As a knight of justice, there is no doubt that you will follow your own path of justice. However, justice should not block the path of other neutrals."
Even at this time, Audrey Linda did not forget to take the opportunity to educate her apprentices. Of course, the knights of the kind and lawful camp did not mean to sit idly by. After all, correcting the ignorance of intelligent creatures is also a just act, so Audrey Lelinda intends to help these rabbitmen find real justice after dealing with the "revenge" matter.
Of course, the premise is that she can survive after revenge.
So the female knight with a gentle smile continued to educate Claire:
"Moreover, in the face of evil, how to choose is also an important judgment. After all, we can't do many things at the same time, so the top priority is to save innocent people, followed by eradicating the most harmful evil, and finally correcting those small ones. evil"!
"So that's it, I understand, Teacher, now there is a most harmful evil fleeing in this swamp, we should get rid of that villain first!"
After listening to Audrey Linda's words, Claire nodded heavily. It seems that he has already agreed with the point of view of "prioritizing the greatest evil". After all, before the Fat Rabbit Man spoke, both Audrey Linda and Claire I feel that the matter of this persecuted "evil girl" can be postponed, especially in the view of Claire, who is full of confidence in eradicating rape and evil. People, very convenient, no problems.
But... Soon, following the drunken words of the fat bunny man, the expressions of Claire and Audrey Linda changed.
"The evil girl will act as a "living dead sacrifice" to please the ancestors at tomorrow's "Harvest Festival"!"
This news made the bunny people in the whole tavern jump for joy, and at the same time, it also made the face of the female knight sitting in the corner drinking gloomy instantly!
"Sacrifice of the Living Dead"!
Claire didn't know what this word meant. So he just doesn't think this word is a good word, but... as a wandering knight, Audrey Linda knows the meaning of this word!
During the journey of thousands of years, the female knight only heard that some extremely savage half-orc tribes would have such appalling and cruel rituals. She thought that in those tribes that interacted with humans, this kind of weird cruelty was meaningless The ritual has long since disappeared. Unexpectedly, today, the term "living dead sacrifice" not only appeared nakedly, but would soon be staged in front of the female knight!
What made Audrey Linda's expression very serious was that such a cruel act was aimed at a helpless little girl who was persecuted and bullied!
