Chapter 35 Necessary sacrifice (please invest!)

Five lifelike statues were placed in the training square of Kama Taj. The secret wizard apprentices who were training for body protection were not surprised by the appearance of these statues. They didn't even know who was placed there.

But they also felt that the expressions of these statues were too vivid, as if they were made of flesh and blood, which made people feel a little chilled.

Some apprentices also tried to poke the corners of the statues' clothes that were as thin as cicada's wings, but they were all caught by Baron Modu.

There was no hint of happiness on Modu's face. He knew what his junior brother was facing, and Salomon had also made a corresponding decision, and the result of this decision was placed in front of him.

This made him a little worried, and even complained about the Supreme Master's arrangement.

After all, his junior brother is an absolute cave creature and rarely leaves Kama Taj. He is worried that Salomon will face such a thing too early. His age is too young.

Salomon, who moved the statue to Kamataj, was sitting in front of the Supreme Master at this time. He drank the tea on the Venerable's table and his listless spirit was revived.

He told the Lord everything he saw and heard on this trip, including the moral dilemma he faced. Now, he really hoped that he could get some useful advice.

"You live in a peaceful environment like Kamataj, so naturally you never made such a choice.

But when you leave here and go out, all kinds of problems will follow one after another, and all you have faced before is only one of them." The Venerable pointed to the direction of the training ground, "But I am very satisfied with your decision, child.

I know you have some doubts, so I'll give you an example. This is something I've experienced and will help you."

"Domam is not just now who has spied on the earth. He has wanted to swallow the earth into the dark dimension before humans even emerged, but he was blocked by the first supreme mage Ago Motorcycle. Later, I became the supreme mage and did the same job.

In the past, countless people believed in Domaum. There was once a small village where almost everyone believed in Domaum, just as they believed in God, pious and foolish.

They did not know that they believed in an evil god, but their lives had indeed improved. They could raise livestock, and the grain harvest continued to be bumper, and no one starved to death. Soon after, they held a banquet in the local area and used the surplus of one year to attract many merchants and villagers from other nearby villages.

At that time, the planetary defense system was initially established, and they still easily summoned Him using the magic given by Domaum, and I also noticed this through the planetary defense system. Just as Domaum was about to successfully summon, I appeared there." The Supreme Master paused for a moment, and she asked Salomon, "What do you think I would do?"

Salomon shook his head. If he was in such a scene, he really didn't know what to do.

Those who believe in Domaum are guilty, even if they don’t know what they believe in. But what about the villagers in other villages and the merchants passing by?

"The answer is very simple. As Domaum is about to come, I summoned a burning meteorite. The meteorite fell from the sky and killed everyone present." The Venerable said, "This includes not only the believers of Domaum, but also the villagers nearby and merchants. Do you know the reason for me to do this?"

Salomon shook his head again, "I don't know."

"Because I cannot tell who is the believer of Domaum and who is not. But Domaum will soon come. If I wait until I distinguish the innocent ones one by one, the earth will be swallowed into the dark dimension. The simplest, fastest and most effective way is to kill everyone present and interrupt the summoning ceremony.

Just like you encounter, you want to kill the vampire, but ordinary people are protecting him. If you insist on doing this, you must also hurt those ordinary people." The Venerable's tone was very serious, and she said, "But you have no extra choice, Salomon. No one can guarantee that the two vampires will not regard human beings as food because of their desire for blood in the future. You cannot put the safety of the lives of other people in that town on the conscience of the vampire, which is extremely irresponsible.

We are protecting the human whole, not individuals.

I think you should also know the rank of Barnabas. There is absolutely no Dracula on the earth, otherwise it would be a disaster for mankind. Under the safety of all mankind, some lives can be abandoned.

This is understood by every secret mage of Kamataj. Although it is very cold-blooded and ruthless, it is a correct choice. The planetary defense system has been established, and Kamataj has been able to monitor the magic fluctuations all over the world. We can often stop the spread of things when the believers of Domaum, devil believers, or something else is the beginning to summon.

But even so, we must face this problem from time to time.”

Salomon lowered his head and thought about what the Supreme Master said. From the Supreme Master's standpoint, Kamataj's standpoint, and even the standpoint of protecting all human beings, this method is indeed desirable. If those terrible beings are summoned, more people will die.

The Supreme Master was very satisfied when he saw that Salomon was thinking. Now many people in Kamataj were blindly respecting the Venerable's decision, but the Venerable still hoped that the Secret Masters could have their own thoughts. She hoped that Salomon could understand her good intentions in doing so.

The Venerable continued, "Kamataj does this, which does not mean that he ignores life. If possible, we will choose to save them as much as possible, otherwise we will become typical utilitarians, and simply measuring life by quantity is not desirable. We know that the value of life is unmeasurable, but for the sake of more people's lives, we have to destroy a few people. We cherish life and decide everything carefully, especially when you are determined to abandon other people's lives and souls."

In fact, all the enemies Salomon faced this time were predicted by the Venerable, including ordinary people from the Corinthians.

This mission was also arranged by the Venerable, in order to allow Salomon to face this choice in advance and make a decision by himself.

Only in this way can Salomon abandon unnecessary weakness, have a decisive attitude, and ultimately grow into a qualified guardian according to the Venerable's vision.

"But, this choice is painful, isn't it?" Salomon raised his head. "Did you still bear such a burden, and it lasted for so long?"

"This is our duty. While we are protecting human beings, we are also bearing the sins of human beings." The Venerable's expression did not change at all. "As long as we are still protecting human beings, such things will happen. Even without Kamataj and the Supreme Master, someone will make such a decision. This is a sacrifice, and this is also the price you will pay."

"Cherish the sympathy and kindness you have now. They are precious and keep them. Only in this way can you stop ignoring the value of life when making decisions. Only in this way can you use these lives better. When necessary, including your own."

Sorry, Salomon, this is not the pain you should bear, but mine.
