Chapter 3298 Balance
Heloise asked in a confused tone: "What's the reason?"
"As long as any organization reaches a certain scale and is composed of multiple forces, there will definitely be a phenomenon, and that is balance."
"The reason why this happens is mainly because of the greed of the human heart."
"Everyone has greed, greed for money, greed for beauty, greed for power, greed for fame, etc. As long as humans still have greed, it is impossible not to have desires. Only humans When you are full of longing, it is impossible to balance the scale in your heart.”
Taking a deep breath, I slowly said: "If what I expected is correct, the Oath Defenders organization is not an iron bucket. All forces within the organization are constantly adjusting and balancing. Today, your power is stronger, and other forces are I will try every means to reduce your power. If my power becomes stronger tomorrow, other forces will try to reduce my power. The day after tomorrow, if his power exceeds the limit, other forces will try to restrain his power. And this , is balance.”
"But my father is the clan leader."
"It's not important," I reminded: "Don't forget, you are not valued by your father, and the most important thing is that you are not a practical adventurer."
"What does this have to do with me not being a practical adventurer?"
"Not only is it relevant, but it is very relevant." I emphasized: "You have to know that if you have the talent of a combat adventurer, your father will definitely not be indifferent to you, and as long as your father cares about you, you will also I will not take desperate risks to conquer the apostles."
"However, even if you successfully conquered the apostles, you are still not favored by your father. On the contrary, has your father become more indifferent towards you?"
Heloise was silent for a long time and said: "Well, you are right. Not only has my father's impression of me not changed at all this time, but he has even started to be wary of me."
"Yes, that's the point," I said, "Why is your father wary of you?"
"Because I conquered the apostles and came back alive?"
"Yes," I said, "Because you conquered the apostles. Although you failed, not everyone can accomplish this feat. This is enough to establish your position in the hearts of others, and it also establishes your status in the hearts of others." Position within the Oathkeepers."
"In the past, if you raised your arms, maybe few people would look at you seriously, but now, if you raise your arms and raise your arms, a considerable number of adventurers will be willing to follow you. This is the advantage brought by reputation."
"If it were an ordinary father, he would definitely be proud of you, but he is not like that. Not only is he not proud of you, on the contrary, he is jealous of you. Do you know why?"
Heloise sounded confused and said: "Why?"
"Because your status has affected your brother's family status, you might be replaced, and your father doesn't want you to replace your brother. Naturally, he is so afraid of you."
"But this situation greatly meets the needs of other forces in the organization."
"Although the Oath Keepers organization was founded by your family, today's Oath Keepers organization is no longer dominated by your family, and other joining forces will not allow your family to dominate. The reason is simple. Once If your family is dominant, it will have a fundamental impact on other forces and make other forces become vassals of your family. But who would be willing to become a vassal of others? Don’t forget, everyone is greedy. The desire for one family to be dominant will at least not be left behind by other forces, so these forces will try their best to find a way to balance."
"Today, the Oath Keepers organization still respects your family, and your brother also has good fighting talent, so this situation of respecting your family may continue. This is not what other forces want to see. But because of the lack of influence, you cannot plunder by force. Now, your influence has reached a certain level, and you are not favored by your father. Taken together, in the eyes of other forces, you It is the best chess piece to check your father's power. Naturally, as long as you can continue to develop your own power, those people will find ways to meet all your needs."
"So, you should understand," I couldn't help but smile. "So you don't need to worry about anything. As long as you focus on developing your own power, everything will be fine."
After I finished speaking, Heloise did not reply immediately, but remained silent for a while.
During this period, I even wondered if she had hung up the call.
Fortunately, just when I was about to hang up the call and get in touch with her again, she took the lead and said: "My family is the original family that founded the Oath Keepers organization after all. I don't want to see the family decline because of my relationship. .”
"No family can prosper all the time," I comforted, "If there is such a family, it can only mean one thing. The Oathkeepers organization is constantly declining."
"If you want to keep an organization strong, competition must exist. Only competition will keep it strong, and only competition will make the organization continue to prosper."
"At the same time, the most important point is that if you want your family to remain prosperous, you must have family harmony. But now your family has differences. The emergence of this situation means that your family will It will decline for a period of time, and it will not be until unity appears again in the next few generations that it will be possible to continue to rise to the top of the Oathkeepers. This explanation should be able to relieve your worries."
"cannot."
Heloise said in a calm tone.
"If you say you can't, there's nothing you can do about it," I said, "That's what the family is all about."
At the end of our chat, Heloise asked me, “Can’t you really come?”
"cannot."
"Oh" she responded disappointedly.
"Just do as I say first." I couldn't bear to hear Heloise's voice of such despair, so I comforted: "I believe that the demon world will be able to overcome the difficulties, and you will definitely make a difference in the Oath Keepers organization. .”
"I hope so" she sighed and hung up the call.
Not long after she hung up the call, the blue witch came out, sat next to me, looked at the phone blankly, and asked me: "Does she miss you very much and hopes you can go to the devil world to accompany her?"
"Well, yes" I said.
"Hmph, I knew that woman would never give up!" The blue witch suddenly raised her fist angrily: "When I was in the demon world, I should have taught her a lesson."
"You're overthinking," I said with a smile, "She didn't call this time because of her personal relationship with her children, but she hoped that I could go to the devil world to help her."
