"What are you saying!" Bei Qingchuan retorted almost instantly: "We all know that Changning is Gluttony, and its matching superpower is eating, but how could Shiyin be Greed?"
If Tokine were lazy or arrogant, Kitakyokawa might believe it to some extent.
After all, Tokine often did not do things herself, but instead instructed her servants to do them.
In many novels and TV series, someone this powerful should have already conquered the world, like a reclusive master who always appears when chaos strikes. If we're being really serious, we could just call him lazy.
Or perhaps they are arrogant, for example, thinking that these monsters are not worth fighting and that they don't need to personally farm them.
But if you say that Tokine is greedy, that's a bit far-fetched.
How could there be greedy people who would abandon all the world's resources and crystal cores, distributing resources to the people and giving crystal cores to the country for research and development?
They all receive a fixed salary, but as far as Kitakyou knows, Tokine doesn't receive a salary at all; it's all deposited with the government, and she only takes a small amount when she needs it.
If someone doesn't even have a secret stash of money, would you call that kind of person greedy?
"Money is something that can be obtained easily; what is invisible is true greed. Having worked in the entertainment industry, you should understand this better than I do." He arrogantly spread his palms: "For example, power is more tempting than money."
"Don't you find it strange? Memory should only be what the eye can see. Her so-called memory replication should be inseparable from you. The stronger you are, the stronger the memories she records should be."
"But she was able to become stronger without limit simply by copying the seed of this memory, even stronger than the person who possessed this ability... It's as if just knowing that this ability exists is enough to possess it."
Kita Kiyokawa and the Commander-in-Chief exchanged a glance but neither spoke.
"Both of you are smart people, so you should have figured it out by now. This so-called memory ability, in other words, can be summed up in two words—want."
She wanted this superpower, so she got it.
She wanted to become stronger, so she had it.
She didn't want to die, so she got pregnant.
“That doesn’t make sense. If a single thought could grant a wish, then sound would be omnipotent,” the leader retorted. “For example, returning the world to before the apocalypse.”
"Hey, all abilities come at a price. Is it possible that she simply can't afford that price?" Arrogance looked like he'd seen a ghost. "She says she can go back to the past just like that? Why doesn't she just say she'll make the universe explode?"
Consul General: "It's not impossible."
Kita Kiyokawa: "Huh?"
Lord Commander, please calm down!
arrogant:"……"
Hey, He's serious, don't suddenly go into abstraction!
"The essence of the seven deadly sins is selfishness, which arises from evil thoughts born of desire. Only those who truly possess noble virtues can be recognized by the world and bear its mark." Pride simply skipped over the leader's sudden lapse in thought and continued speaking.
"In other words, all of your calculated sacrifices were merely stepping stones for her... Shiyin's selfish desires."
“There was no pre-planned sacrifice; everyone’s sacrifice was noble and voluntary.” Kitakami frowned.
"Does a calculated act of voluntariness count as voluntariness?" the arrogant man retorted.
“If it’s a forced sacrifice for something trivial, then of course it doesn’t count. But now everyone’s sacrifice is for the world and the Yanlong Kingdom, so of course it’s voluntary.” Bei Qingchuan’s voice was light but firm: “Judging by actions, not intentions, no one is perfect. Even if it’s for personal gain and incidentally saving the world, then he is still a hero.”
"Naive." He sneered arrogantly, "She hates this world to the core. If her wish weren't an appendage of this world, she wouldn't have tried to save it."
"You, all of you, this country, this world—she hates it all!" Arrogantly pointing at Bei Qingchuan and then at the Commander-in-Chief, his voice rose three octaves: "She resents the world, she resents humanity. You think she's happy with you? You're kidding! She hates everything!"
The Consul General said, "Didn't you say you would state the facts objectively without any emotion or subjective judgment? You've broken the rules."
Arrogance: "You!"
Bei Qingchuan: "..."
For some reason, Kita Kiyokawa couldn't help but laugh when the Consul General suddenly interrupted his impassioned speech.
All I can say is that the leader truly lives up to his title; he has his own insights into interrupting emotions and controlling the pace, though it can be a bit infuriating.
“You really are…” Arrogantly sat down again, pressing his temples, with a hint of helplessness in his voice, “I was just a little emotional, and I was just telling the truth.”
"Ye Yuansong's sacrifice was all part of her plan. This rebellion would have been difficult to quell without her. She calculated the deaths and sacrifices of others to pave the way for your country, and you're all so at ease with yourselves." Arrogance calmed down again: "She didn't want Mingtai Temple, so you don't want it either?"
"What do you mean?" Kita Kiyokawa's expression changed.
"It means exactly what it says. They've schemed so much, how could they not know that Mingtai Temple would be attacked by a zombie horde after they let their guard down?" Arrogantly looking out the window, "They deliberately didn't want to guard it, and didn't even bother to warn you."
"I told you from the beginning, sowing discord won't do you any good." The commander-in-chief's face was grim. "If that's what you're trying to say, you'd better just leave."
"Do you know what those bracelets made by Abbot Huiming are for?" he arrogantly replied, seemingly ignoring the question.
The chief looked at Bei Qingchuan, but Bei Qingchuan shook his head blankly. He did know that Abbot Huiming had died because of this, but he did not know exactly what had happened.
"The 108-bead Bodhi seed bracelet is used to seal the mirror zombies, because the so-called mirror zombies are 108 people with special abilities," the arrogant man said unhurriedly. "And the seven bracelets are used to seal the seven deadly sins."
"Once the source is sealed, the world that was pulled into the jump space by her will no longer be able to possess the Seven Deadly Sins. This is equivalent to me forever losing my main fighting force. In contrast, Abbot Huiming will never be able to be pulled into the jump again. No matter which parallel world there is, there will never be Abbot Huiming again."
"What did you say?" Kita Kiyokawa exclaimed in surprise.
"You should know about reborn beings, right? That means when everyone is reborn, Huiming will no longer exist in the world." He laughed arrogantly. "And Huiming gave everything, yet she's willing to gamble the safety of Mingtai Temple on Gu Changge's evolution... And even so, you're still willing to follow her?"
"Aren't you afraid of being next?"
