Struggle and Peace_3
But can The Third King really be blamed for this?
Obviously not, since it truly is the fault of the world, no, the universe, really.
After all, wasn’t Witch World once the targeted party?
No sooner had the Divine King finished battling Angels than the Great Dragon started causing trouble.
The moment the Dragon King defeated the Great Dragon, Demons began to dislike you, prompting the Devil King to fight the Demons.
Those veteran Three Calamities truly lacked martial virtue, taking turns bullying Witch World as the newcomer.
With no choice left, the Witches had to fight all three and ended up defeating them, only then achieving hard-won peace.
The warlike nature of the Witch Clan stems from this, for from their very inception till now, they’ve either been at war or en route to the next one.
If they couldn’t grow stronger, they’d be bullied by others.
Now that they’ve finally beaten those three troublesome Calamities and have become the overlords of the Western Universe, the Witches can no longer turn back, or perhaps they don’t even know how to.
How can a race that was born amidst blood and fire simply lay down their arms and stop fighting?
It’s not that easy.
It’s hard to turn around a large ship; the Witches can’t stop, nor do they dare to.
They’ve indeed become terrified of being bullied.
Rather than suffer abuse due to weakness, they’d prefer to step by step become the strongest of the races, the foremost Calamity that no one dares to bully anymore.
For this reason, the martial spirit of the clan must remain unchanged, and their pursuit of strength unwavering.
As for the resulting issues with public order, securing the safety of the weaker Witches, well, they can only do their best.
After all, The Third King isn’t Omniscient and Omnipotent yet, even they can’t make everything perfect.
Although they’d like to have it all, in reality it’s more often a case of not being able to have your cake and eat it too.
As for whether this approach is right or wrong?
If everything in this world could be resolved by a simple dichotomy between right and wrong, that would be splendid.
If anyone thinks this isn’t the way to go, then let them find a solution that’s good for you, for me, for everyone.
At that point, The Third King would actually be happy to abdicate and let such a talent become The Fourth King.
It’s just that…
Speaking of The Fourth King, Dorothy lifted her head and glanced at Hat Senior Sister above her, then sighed.
Forget it, the Heavenly Mandate’s Fourth King has gone mad; one day, he might even bring about the end of the world, which, in a sense, would also be a solution.
“Dorothy, why are you looking at me?
I always feel like you’re thinking something impolite,”
With the Eyes of the Stars opening on the brim of Hat Senior Sister’s stellar hat, she skeptically looked at her Master and asked with some dissatisfaction.
“Oh, nothing.
Just praising how amazing you are,”
Homebody Witch casually dismissed her embarrassing Senior Sister, then mused.
Although in reality she might be insignificant and unable to change anything, perhaps in this dream, she could try to make a difference?
Strength is certainly important, but if strength is all you have, then power unfettered ultimately only harms oneself and others.
Heart as a Fierce Tiger, gently sniffing at roses.
Perhaps she should try to fit the Fierce Tiger with a garland of roses, praying it wouldn’t be swallowed by relentless Brutality.
“Ha, you’re dreaming.
The world has always been this way—human nature is fundamentally Evil Breed; as long as people exist, there will be no end to conflict.
You’re old enough, so why are you still dreaming about making everyone happy?
Be realistic, for goodness’ sake.”
Artie, who overheard Homebody Witch’s sigh just now, let out a scornful laugh and then disdainfully regarded this bad woman who wasn’t actually all that bad.
Hmph, no one understood the evil in human nature better than her, the Evil Breed.
And then…
Artie was righteously chastised.
“Ouch…”
After being smacked on the head by Homebody Witch, Little Lolita crouched down, hugging her head.
“Everyone knows it’s unrealistic, but some things still need to be done by someone.
Even if it can’t be perfect, attempting it is certainly much better than not trying at all,”
Dorothy retorted, annoyed at being lectured by such a young child.
“Can you not be so violent?
Violence doesn’t solve problems—you said it yourself, hoping to reduce strife.”
Artie retorted coldly, trying to use her adversary’s own logic against her.
“Ha, you just don’t understand.
This is seeking peace through struggle; we maintain peace through strength.
Little one, you’re still too naive,”
Dorothy replied with a smile, as if boasting triumphantly.
…The two stared each other down…
