The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 409: The so-called “eloquent”

"Player Super Justice ()"

I didn’t expect that you are still an Imperial Master!

The way Annan looked at Victor suddenly became strange.

...It turns out that when he was taking care of young Annan, he was still considered a professional counterpart.

He seemed to understand why Victor was ordered to "live" by the emperor and his grandmother.

This is not so much about bearing a curse or paying for a crime, but rather... that someone really wants him to live.

——This is not just about atonement.

A more accurate statement... seems to be to allow him to watch over the entire world, or to watch over the Principality of Winter.

"What did you do back then?"

Annan couldn't help but ask: "I checked your history before...it should be said that there are mixed reviews."

Victor sighed, seeming to be reminiscing about the past.

He crossed his fingers, and his hair fell quietly like frost and snow.

"I taught the princes and princesses about the dangers of curse energy when they were very young, and have been discussing with them 'how to restore elven civilization after the curse energy is abandoned' as a way of Debate to develop wisdom.

"When the new emperor came to the throne... I confirmed that the new emperor actually supported the abolition of curse power, and then a nationwide 'debate on the abandonment of curse power' was launched with great fanfare.

"And Nafli's son...that is, Philippe Flamel, inherited her mother's will. In the final of that debate, he defeated his opponent beautifully and was awarded [Eloquence] by the emperor. The name of the author."

Victor said rationally: "So it can be said that I robbed Nafli and others of their early achievements in preaching in various places. Therefore, some elf history scholars are right to criticize me - but on the other hand, it is also It was indeed my actions that truly ended the era of curse energy, so some elf history scholars were right to praise me.

"Although the resistance they preached in various places was indeed very strong, it also objectively aroused a group of young people with new ideas... Their habitual dependence on mantra power is not that serious, so it is easier to Be won over.

“When this matter becomes controversial and everyone is discussing it, they will be forced to start thinking. And because they are young or rebellious, they don’t have that much respect for tradition... plus The elves are born with silver souls and are born to be good. They themselves have a desire for self-sacrifice.

"This leads to them being more inclined to 'abolish the curse'. It's just that they lack a reason - a reason that can convince them.

"And the big discussion I held at this time provides this reason."

Victor's eyes were dark and profound.

Annan clearly sensed a familiar feeling from him...

That is the power of the element called [wisdom], the feeling of mutual resonance!

"The discussion itself is irrelevant, the focus is on 'all people'."

The last emperor of the Yasselan Empire said slowly: "Elves are intelligent, kind, and have ideals...but that doesn't mean they are omnipotent and will not be induced or deceived.

“This kind of nationwide discussion will form a sense of authority. It will quickly form a chain of authority.

“Because I am not as good as the debater who won and advanced here, he is not as good as the debater who defeated him... In this cycle, the final winner is the holder of ‘truth’.”

At this point, Victor sneered: "The truth becomes clearer with each passing day, but who can represent the truth?

"However, for the elves at that time, the victory of the 'Orator' was equivalent to 'the final conclusion of the discussion among the wise men across the country was to abolish the curse.' Therefore, this action became authoritative.

"But the most critical thing here is... His Majesty actually supports the abolition of curses. So no matter what, Philip will win.

"The difference is only whether it is beautiful or not - and even if it is not beautiful, people will only question Philip, not His Majesty the Emperor."

"So," Annan interrupted Victor, "does Philip know about this?"

"Of course he doesn't know."

Victor replied without hesitation: "Debating requires energy. Not to mention that Philip believed that he inherited the will of his grandfather and mother and was a partner of justice... because he was a half-elf.

"Had he failed in the final debate, he would have been scorned by both his allies and his dissenters. But he resisted the pressure of it all and turned it into strength to become a teenager. This 'extremely young' age convinced the 600-year-old elf sage opposite him in the final debate.

"This is a miracle - if he had known that he was just a tool and a target, then he would not have the energy and would not be able to say such things.

"After that, the operation of 'unplugging the cursed cellar' can be carried out, and at the same time, the 'specimen sealing technology' is implemented, and dozens of elves are selected in each gathering place to enter the eternal nightmare to destroy the elven empire. The most glorious era is sealed.

“Because at that time, we had already predicted that no matter how quickly the technology to replace the curse energy could be invented, it would definitely be much worse than the curse energy technology.

"Elves will eventually no longer have unique technologies that are far superior to other races, and the condescending status of elves will eventually decline... This is actually something we have expected."

Victor said softly: "But some things have to be done by someone.

"We are repaying debts for our ancestors - if this debt is not repaid by us ~IndoMTL.com~ it will accumulate more and more. One day, we will not be able to repay it even if we want to."

"You have a great Majesty."

Annan nodded slightly, and his expression became serious: "Knowing that this will ruin the glory of the entire empire and make the transcendent status of the elves no different from other citizens, I dare to face the mistakes of the past..."

This is extremely dangerous.

If you make one wrong move, not only will the elves lose their lofty status, but the magic technology may also be stolen by the barbaric Yaserans at that time... Not only will the magic power be restored to use, but it may even be further abused.

This is entirely possible.

Fortunately, the mistakes have been made up, and everything is developing in a good direction... Although the elves lost their curse technology, they also re-developed steam technology and gunpowder technology. In three hundred years, they will be equivalent to The technology of the early Middle Ages on Earth has been directly advanced for a thousand years.

But in this case, Annan has another doubt.

So, why did the Yasselan Empire suddenly die suddenly in the end?

The great barrier collapsed, the imperial capital collapsed, the emperor died, and the great curses were scattered. Many surrounding countries were destroyed as a result, and millions or even tens of millions of people died directly or indirectly... Since the glory Destruction takes only a few days.

What happened?

"...In a sense, His Royal Highness Philip may be right."

Annan narrowed his eyes: "I have to thank him for the information he brought me."

Victor thoughtfully said: "You mean..."

"I still have to see Lord Chiron."

Annan said solemnly: "If we don't understand how the empire was destroyed... we can't call it a lesson from history.

"I can't just leave such a huge disaster alone."
