Chapter 1026 Girl’s Night Talk

For Duanmu Huai, it was easy to eliminate these evil spirits. Not only that, he also got to know Aiko, a hot girl.

Well, that can be considered a big plus.

After that, Aizi seemed to be interested in Duanmu Huai, and Duanmu Huai was skillful and generous, so she took the initiative to ask Duanmu Huai to the hotel several times. Duanmu Huai naturally wouldn't refuse this. To be honest, he quite liked this kind of relationship that didn't involve too many emotions.

Naruse Mio and Mari have a good relationship with Duanmuhuai, so Duanmuhuai will naturally not attack them easily. After all, for Duanmu Huai, Mary is his important companion. As for Naruse Mio... he sees her as his lovely sister.

To put it bluntly, the relationship between a few people is quite complicated, so Duanmu Huai doesn't want to make it more complicated.

It's quite simple like Aiko, just go out for a date, have a meal, go to a hotel, and give her some pocket money. Then it was like "Uncle, see you next time", it was simple and neat, without any trouble or entanglement. From Duanmuhuai's point of view, this is pretty good.

As for why Aizi, who was obviously a high school student, would come out to do such a thing, Duanmu Huai didn't ask, and Aizi didn't say anything either. After all, they all came out to do this, so there must be something going on. But Duanmuhuai is not the kind of person who doesn't know what's interesting. Duanmuhuai heard a joke before, saying that Hong Kong's fashionable women find guests from the mainland the most interesting. Every time after things were over, the other party would sit there and smoke a cigarette to persuade her not to go out and do such things at such a young age...

Duanmu Huai is not that stupid. After all, you are like one of those waitresses in bars. You may also have to sit in bars because of gang coercion or parents' debts. But Aizi, who hunts wild food on the roadside, basically does it voluntarily. As for why he does this... If Aizi doesn't tell him, Duanmu Huai will not ask.

Besides, even if you ask, there is nothing you can do if someone just makes up a pitiful story about their parents being homeless and wandering for a living, right?

After Duanmuhuai had a way to pass the time, the days passed quickly. Soon it was a week later, when it was time for the duel between Nakasai Kokaori and Kosaka Rina.

Duanmu Huai didn't show up this time. He knew that he had a strong sense of intimidation. If he were present, others might think he was the one who forced her. So Duanmu Huai only learned what happened from Mary.

The final result......

"Kosaka Reina-san is responsible for the trumpet solo."

Hearing Mary's answer, Duanmuhuai snorted.

"Sure enough, this is the result, so I knew there would be no problem. A bunch of brats doing things out of boredom is a waste of time."

"Mr. Duanmu is so confident in Mr. Kosaka?"

Putting down the teacup in her hand, Mary looked at Duanmuhuai curiously, who smiled.

"It's not nonsense. Just think about it and you will know that Reina Kosaka will definitely go all out. If she can't show her own strength, doesn't it prove that the rumor that Taki takes care of her is true? Reina Kosaka again She’s not stupid, plus she’s very protective of Taki, so she definitely won’t give in. Then does Nakasai Kokaori admit that her skills are not as good as others?”

"Yes... Mr. Taki was also quite bad-hearted. After the two of them finished playing, he directly asked Nakaseko-san if she planned to play a solo. Then Nakaseko-san was silent for a long time, and finally gave up the solo. And Kousaka-san also asked Naka Shigu-san apologizes, and this matter is over.”

"Okay, that's enough for this boring thing."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand.

"The official competition is next... I hope these brats won't let me down."

"Mr. Duanmu, do you want to come to the scene?"

"Of course I will go, but I won't appear in front of you. Just do your best."

Duanmu Huai also knew that if he really showed up, it might be like Kato Hazuki said, and students from other schools would be so scared that they would not be able to play when they saw him. However, for Duanmu Huai, who has blood duck stealth skills, it is not a problem to find a place to hide secretly.

Even if it's a women's locker room, he can hide in it without being noticed!

Although Duanmuhuai has no such interest.

Duanmuhuai is busy here, and Naruse Mio and Rias are not idle either. The most important thing they have to do every day is to read the "biographies" written by Mary.

I have to admit that, simply as a novel, it is quite interesting.

But once you make it a reality... ...it feels a little complicated.

"I see………"

Putting down the book in her hand, Rias frowned, staring at the cover and thinking. Now it seems that the core policy of the Tribunal is human supremacy - this kind of doctrine itself is not unfamiliar to Rias. After all, there are similar angel or demon supremacy, and the core is the same. They believe that their own race is the most superior and other races are completely inferior to them.

It's just that...the Tribunal's approach is too extreme even from the perspective of the most extreme radicals in the demon world.

It can be seen from the book that the only criterion for the Inquisition to distinguish each other is the skull. As long as the skull is human, it can be preserved and saved. But as long as the skull is not human, whatever you want will be destroyed. In particular, Rias was deeply impressed by the actions of the Inquisition in the Mass Effect trilogy.

You must know that the Salarians, Asari and Turians are just different races from humans, but because of this, the Inquisition decisively abandoned them and even allowed the Reapers to exterminate them. They watched the fire from afar, and finally came out to fight the Reapers to the death, and finally defeated them.

To be honest, seeing this, Rias just felt very incomprehensible. After all, if all this is true, then no matter how she looks at it, she feels that the power of all races should be united to fight the Reapers together. After all, the opponent's target is all life, not just aliens.

How confident is the Inquisition in its own strength that it would rather use this method than cooperate with alien races?

But it’s okay......

Thinking of this, Rias touched her hair and smiled bitterly.

Fortunately, most of the demons in the demon world are considered humans or sub-humans according to the standards of the Tribunal, so there is no need to worry about them attacking indiscriminately...

"Senior Rias, have you finished reading?"

At this moment, Naruse Mio, who was holding a large tome and chewing on it, saw Rias put down the book in her hand and asked in surprise, while Rias nodded.

"Yes, I have to say that Miss Mary's writing is really good... To be honest, I do have a deeper understanding of the existence of the Tribunal... What about you?"

"me………"

Hearing Rias's inquiry, Naruse Mio frowned and stared at the book in front of her. After a while, she spoke awkwardly.

"I think... there are many enemies here, and they are not bad people at all..."

For Naruse Mio, this kind of reading experience is really rare. Generally speaking, the enemies of the protagonist in the book are either extremely vicious or are forced to do bad things, but no matter what, they must have done bad things, so they became the enemies of the protagonist.

But Mary's novels are different. She always writes from a very neutral and objective standpoint. Therefore, in Mary's writing, other races are not evil or barbaric, and there are only two reasons for them to be killed by the Inquisition.

First, their skulls are not human.

Second, they pose a threat to human existence.

All things considered, they must die.

Simple, direct and clear, just like 1+1=2.

What Naruse Mio remembers most is the little ghoul girl. She just wanted to live happily with her parents, but unfortunately, she was a man-eating ghoul, so——there was only one way to die. .

If it were Naruse Mio herself, she wouldn't know what to do.

If a young girl was in front of her, Naruse Mio would definitely not be able to do anything. But the book also makes it very clear that a ghoul can only survive by eating humans, so if you don’t kill her, then she can only survive by eating humans... Even if she insists on supporting the dead, who can guarantee that , her descendants won’t attack humans either?

From this perspective, the ghoul family can only be completely eliminated, without exception.

And the little girl who is the only one with virus antibodies in a world infected by viruses. If she doesn't die, humanity will perish. And her sacrifice will allow humanity to continue to exist. So the Tribunal chose the latter without hesitation, sacrificing the girl so that human history could continue...

"Can I do this kind of job...?"

Sighing, Naruse Mio lay tiredly on the table. If, like in the anime, the Inquisition was a righteous organization fighting against evil, then I might be more relaxed. But the more she read, the heavier Naruse Mio's heart became. She found that if she were allowed to face the problems in it, she would not be able to come up with an answer to almost every one of them.

Of course, if the answer is simply to protect human beings, then it will be much easier to make a choice, but...

"If you find it unacceptable, why don't you ask Miss Mary?"

Seeing Mio Naruse holding her head in distress, Rias also smiled slightly and gave some advice.

"These are all written by her, and I think she must have her own thoughts - after all, according to the book, she has been following Teacher Duanmu, right? So when Teacher Duanmu made these choices, Miss Mary's What are you thinking deep down?"

"makes sense!"

Hearing this, Naruse Mio also cheered up.

"I'm going to ask Miss Mary now!"

Soon, the two walked out of the bedroom and came to the living room. They saw Mary sitting in front of the coffee table drinking tea and reading a book, while Maria next to her was watching TV... When they saw the two walking out, they also looked at her curiously. Throw it at the two men.

"Miss Mary, um... I have something to ask you!"

"Oh? What's the matter? Miss Mio?"

"Is such that………"

Facing Mary, Naruse Mio was a little nervous, but she still told Mary what she thought. When she heard Naruse Mio's question, Mary frowned slightly.

"Are you asking me what I think?"

"Yes, indeed, judging from the book, it seems that the Tribunal has to do this. But... I always feel that this is really a bit too cruel..."

"I understand."

Mary looked at Naruse Mio and nodded.

"Mr. Duanmu has made many cruel decisions. I can't say that I can unconditionally support every decision of his, but... I think I can understand his approach. The Tribunal is to protect mankind and eliminate all threats to mankind. To be honest, at the beginning, I thought the Tribunal was a just organization. But after following Mr. Duanmu for a long time, I found that the actions of the Tribunal cannot be justified by pure justice or justice. To define evil..."

At this point, Mary hesitated.

"But, I am very grateful to Mr. Duanmu."

"Why?"

"As you said, when faced with such a difficult problem, you can't make a clear decision. In fact, I am the same, or all of us are like this. Is this the right thing to do? Is there a better way? The solution? We will be troubled and hesitant because of this. But Mr. Duanmu will not. He will only make decisive decisions and issue orders. To be honest, many times we relax because of this. Because Mr. Duanmu has shouldered the responsibility. , so that we no longer have to think about these difficult issues.”

As she spoke, Mary looked out the window.

"Whether Mr. Duanmu will hesitate and regret these decisions. I don't know, but I hope to support him as much as possible and prevent him from being under so much pressure, so I joined the trial court. After all, the trial is Court has protected me and my friends, as well as most of humanity..."

"But, Miss Mary."

At this moment, Rias looked at her and asked.

"What if one day, the Inquisition requires you or your friends to sacrifice themselves in order to protect the majority of humanity?"

Hearing Rias' sharp question, not only Naruse Mio looked at her in surprise, but Maria also secretly poked her head out from the other side of the sofa and looked here curiously.

But Mary's answer was unexpectedly decisive.

"To be honest, I haven't thought about it. I think Mr. Duanmu may not have thought about this issue either."

"……………Why?"

I have to say that this surprised Rias. She originally expected to hear an answer like "I will devote myself to the Tribunal and die".

"We have just been solving the current problems. What happens in the future is not something we can control. Only then will we know what decisions we should make."

Having said this, Mary looked at them again and smiled.

"But Mr. Duanmu and I don't actually want to die that much."

Then she spoke.
