"Of course, the Russian Federation isn't a great country…Wu Jing and Ye Liqing aren't some great lords. This bottle of wine, this jewelry, this table and chair, this entire room-everything they had was stolen from the country and the people! In order to satisfy their extravagant desires, workers, professors, the elderly…the people should starve for them and freeze to death on the streets or at home! If a woman wants to live, she has to sell silver to a foreigner, a foreigner, an East Asian, a gay Yang…"
.
"Yuqin…"
Ala left her seat and tried to help Yuqin up from her knees. Yuqin's tears had just dried up. She could not cry out now and could only stare blankly at the floor.
"You also know that the Russian Federation is not good.”
.
"Perhaps I know better than you.”
.
"Then why did you still choose it?”
"Yuqin…?"
Ella could feel that Yuqin's bones had suddenly gone limp on her shoulder. She couldn't exert any strength, and she had to rely on her to support herself so that she wouldn't fall to the ground.
.
"Ella…didn't I tell you before? In this world, it was not black and white, or two opposites.”
After a long time, the power slowly returned to Yuqin's body. She wanted to be like not long ago, turning her back on him after enjoying his embrace. But this time, Ella didn't let her have her way. No matter how hard she tried, Aila's arms seemed to be glued together, tightly binding her. Ella's reaction didn't make her angry. On the contrary, she pushed her nose up and pulled her legs back. Her upper body slid down and she rested her head on Ella's plump body again.
"Good or not…bad or not, it's a matter of comparison. If you look for the bad things one-sidedly and in isolation. I can guarantee that this universe, which is full of vitality, will never have such a beautiful regime and ruler ever since its birth, or even hundreds of years later.”
.
" But the demon civilization…"
Ella still wanted to say something good for the Demon Civilization, but Jean knew what she wanted to say. She used her index finger to block Ella's lips, stopping her from continuing.
.
"Ella, who do you feel sad for when you see someone suffer?”
.
"You."
.
"What else?"
.
"My daughter…"
.
"What else?"
.
"Ah…Ah Jian."
.
"Then who is it?"
.
"My boyfriend. It was him. He helped me become a hero.”
When talking about her boyfriend, even the 400-year-old Ella would be embarrassed. This was her second time dating someone at her age.
.
"They are all demons. If it was a demon you didn't know who was being hunted by humans, would you feel sad?”
.
"Yes."
.
"Would you feel sad for the victim when a demon you don't know was tortured and dismembered by a vile creature like Kulya? Would you be angry at the perpetrator?”
.
"Yes. What are you trying to say…"
.
"What I want to say is that the bright and beautiful demons you see are just the bright and beautiful heroes. An ordinary demon like you not long ago, in a demon civilization with feudal production relations, would you be better off than the ordinary people of the Russian Federation after the industrialisation? That was impossible. They would be like the Taotie soldiers in outer space, becoming cannon fodder that they didn't need to waste. Even if they were lucky enough not to encounter a war, the low carrying capacity of the land would cause many of them to die at an age that they should not have died in various ways. As for the life and death of mortals, those demons who were born elites could naturally ignore them. Their lives had nothing to do with mortals. And I-"
Yuqin looked away from Ella's gaze and lowered her gaze to a comfortable spot. She sighed and continued,
"I'm soft-hearted. Now that I'm an Earthling, I'll feel stifled by the misfortune of any Earthling I don't know. I'm the president's lover, the guardian of the country. Looking at it from Earth's perspective, I am also an elite. But I can't ignore ordinary people. Earth was the world with the best living conditions for mortals in the entire universe. The news that mortals would starve to death was actually a big deal. War was actually not a common entertainment activity. The humblest laborers actually had human rights on Earth. All of these made me feel extremely stifled. If I were to acknowledge another civilization…I'm sorry, my heart can't handle such stimulation.”
.
"Yuqin…"
.
"Let me go, Ella."
Yuqin pushed Ella's arm again, but Ella still didn't budge.
"I don't have high expectations for my quality of life. There was food, clothing, shelter, and a computer. That was enough. On Earth, when I saw others suffering, I could still imagine that times would always improve and suffering would always stop. Of course, this wouldn't help them, but it would make me feel much better. As for demons, angels, super civilizations... what they were like tens of thousands of years ago, what they were like tens of thousands of years later, nothing had changed. I won't have any reason to comfort myself. I'll be tortured by my own sympathy.”
.
"If you don't like it, you can still change it!”
Ella was upset by Yuqin's frustration. She pushed Yuqin up, grabbed her shoulders, and questioned her,
"If you are so compassionate, why do you place your hopes on time and others?‘They're so pitiful. Why don't you go and help them?'Isn't this attitude of yours a saint bitch??”
.
"To change? With what? With love? Or is it a verbal cannon?"
A mocking smile appeared on Yuqin's face. She was mocking Ella for being childish and also mocking herself for being small.
"I don't know if you understand this principle: 'The weapon of criticism cannot replace the criticism of a weapon.'The first step was to eradicate the parasites and explorers on mortals, which required violence. What am I? I'm just a plaything of a powerful person. I'm a descendant of a god. My fists might not even be able to convince a tank, so how can I convince thousands of demon lords who are much stronger than you?”
.

Somewhere in the deep sea-Queen
When the person in charge, Ella, left to listen to Yuqin's explanation of history... At this moment, Morgana, who was very interested in Yuqin's ability, was also enjoying the hard liquor while listening to Yuqin's history class. Although Yuqin used voice transmission to replace her throat, she didn't have any special encryption. Therefore, it wasn't difficult for the advanced technology of the demon civilization to intercept the content of her voice transmission.
.
"Earth is truly a magical place.」
After Yuqin was done with her reasoning, she hugged Ella and cried as she poured out her worries. Morgana turned off her voice and propped her chin up with her fingers. She began to think about what she had seen and heard on Earth over the past few weeks.
In the early days, the Angel Civilization was an aggressive civilization. After the death of the current Angel Queen Kesha, the Angel Civilization stopped bullying the weak civilizations. However, the Angel Civilization was still the overlord of the universe. In Kesha's name, they stopped the war with war and absorbed the weak civilizations into the 'Justice Alliance'. Civilizations in the alliance were not allowed to attack each other. Even so, the mortal world under the rule of the angels was still in chaos. The other civilizations that were not ruled by the angels were even more so. Mogana had lived for more than 30,000 years, and she had only seen two civilizations as peaceful as Earth.
The other was the Scorching Sun Civilization, which forbade war in the name of God.
.
"What's that sneaky cat doing there? If you have something to say, just say it.”
Suddenly, Morgana shouted at the door.
.
"Hey…I've been discovered…"
The door was pushed open, and a demonic dog that could only be described as ugly in the eyes of Earthlings sneaked into the room, smiling foolishly at Morgana. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Looking at his comical appearance, Mogana smiled and shook her head, not saying anything more.
"Your Majesty. You know, Yuqin saved our husband and her daughter. My husband is worried that she won't have a good life with the humans, so I'm worried too. I'm just here to ask about Miss Yuqin's progress and whether she can come over and live with us.”
This ugly devil was Ella's lover. Everyone called him Ah Jian.
.
"She refused again."
.
Ah Jian's silly smile froze, and he slowly lowered the corner of his mouth. Then, when he frowned, he angrily waved his hand and said,"
"F * ck you, why?"
Ah Jian wasn't scolding anyone. Kisama was just an expression. He didn't understand. What was so good about Earthlings? They were so mean to Yuqin, but why was Yuqin still so stubborn about them?
.
"It's not that Earthlings are good, but Yuqin despises us even worse.”
.
"What? What's wrong with us? Could it be…"
Ah Jian took out a mirror and looked at himself. He felt embarrassed and his body started to crackle. After a puff of smoke, his body underwent a huge change. He was no longer the ugly man with a green face and fangs. Instead, he was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. He was a refined IT man. From a human's point of view, he was undoubtedly a handsome man.
"Queen, did our friend take a random picture of the interior of the Queen and forget to inform us to put on makeup? In the end, when he took it out, did he scare Ren Yuqin?”
.
"Ha…"
Morgana waved her hand and denied Jian's guess.
"It has nothing to do with this. The main problem was that Yuqin was too weak, so she did not realize that she was a hero. She saw herself as a mortal, so she was very disgusted with us ignoring the concept of mortals.”
.
"Nani?"
Ah Jian didn't understand. Why would a hero treat himself as a mortal? In their minds, this was as strange as extreme animal rights advocates seeing themselves as wild animals.
.
"You're still young and haven't experienced the ancient times, so it's normal that you don't understand. After all, things were different now compared to the ancient times.”
" About…fifty thousand years ago, the difference between a hero and a mortal was whether or not they could use divine power. The difference between gods and ordinary heroes was whether they could transcend the limitations of their physical bodies and live forever.”
.
"Isn't it the same now…"
.
"It's already different."
Morgana denied Jian again.
" To be more precise, our definition of the ancient era and the modern era is based on whether heroes and mortals are bound to exist. In ancient times, shen power did not mean a more aggressive or stronger body. Take Yuqin for example. Her divine power was very abundant, and she was very likely to be a first-generation descendant of the gods. But what about her combat ability? In her extreme rage, she had to use all her strength, but she couldn't even defeat the ordinary Taoties that were hastily armed. If we hadn't interfered, she would have become the first known hero to die at the hands of mortals in the past 30,000 years.”
.
"How…how did this happen?"
Ah Jian actually didn't know Yuqin very well. His daily work had nothing to do with Yuqin, so he had never heard of this at all. Now that he heard the Queen mention it, he connected to the demon's database and searched for information about Yuqin. As expected, he found a full record of Yuqin's sneak attack on the Taotie soldiers a few days ago.
.
"In ancient times, not all civilizations were aggressive. A hero's divine power was complex and colorful. Most of it could not be used in battle, nor could it be used to increase combat ability. At that time, the civilization, true gods, heroes, and mortals were all commoners, and there was not much of a boundary between them. It was just like how the great scientists on Earth would live with other useless mortals. In the modern era, it was unknown which civilization had first discovered space navigation technology, and this technology was controlled by an aggressive civilization, causing the universe to fall into a war.”
" In about two hundred thousand years, civilizations that were not good at fighting went extinct and declined. In the era that I was born, there was no such civilization among the space civilizations known to the Angel Civilization. The reason why all the heroes of the space civilizations had extraordinary combat power, and the True Gods had incredible combat power, was because the civilizations that didn't have True Gods with incredible combat power were all destroyed by our ancestors.”
.
" Heavens…Yuqin…Is Yuqin such a primitive person…"
.
Ah Jian's worldview was the worldview of a modern hero. Hence, Mogana's description of Yuqin was as such: In ancient times, human beings (namely heroes) were just ordinary animals in nature (heroes and mortals). Like animals (mortals), human ancestors also ate raw meat and drank blood. One day, human ancestors suddenly learned to use fire and tools, so human ancestors evolved to defeat other ancient apes and ancient humans (other ancient civilizations) and made them extinct. Humans (civilization) were not born to use fire and tools (using divine power to fight), but the ancient humans (ancient civilizations) who could not use fire and tools were extinct. Only modern humans (modern civilization) who could use tools were left.
His impression of Yuqin had also changed drastically. He used to think that Yuqin was a "good person" who saved his wife and child. Right now, Yuqin was like a "good gorilla" who had saved his wife and child. This "wild gorilla" did not want to accept the gratitude of humans (their heroes) and live a modern life in the city. She didn't like humans, because humans hunted and killed "their wild animals", which was not good for "their wild animals". She was more willing to live in the "nature" where the strong preyed on the weak.
.
"You have to admit that we haven't done a good job protecting mortals. Even though our laws are already very strict, we still can't stop them.”
.
"The entire universe is like this. We've already done the best we can.”
Ah Jian said indignantly,
"Let's compare it to the people on Earth. Earthlings also had a 'wild animal protection law'. However, for wild animals, they actually had to distinguish between Class 1 protected animals and Class 2 protected animals. Earthlings would not receive any punishment for hunting non-protected animals. They would not even receive moral condemnation. But we, we protect mortals indiscriminately and forbid heroes from killing any mortals.”
.
The Demon Queen, who pursued freedom, had naturally noticed the phenomenon of heroes killing mortals at will. Therefore, while fighting for the rights and interests of heroes in the universe, she did not ignore the living conditions of mortals. She introduced many laws to regulate how heroes should get along with mortals under the rule of the demon civilization. However, because the warriors of the demon civilization always had to fight against the angel civilization, the supervision of the mortal world was not in place. Morgana's Mortal Protection Law could only mean that the symbolic meaning was far greater than the actual meaning.
.
"It's not a big problem. Yuqin was a hero after all. She would understand the meaning of being a hero sooner or later. She had just spent too much time with mortals, just like a wolf child on Earth. Don't look at her with dirty glasses. If you want to blame someone, you should blame her irresponsible parents for abandoning her in the mortal world.”
Morgana, on the other hand, wasn't surprised. She hadn't told Yuqin about her shocking thoughts yet. Yuqin's suggestion that 'mortals should live peacefully and amicably, and should not be exploited by others' sounded like 'tigers shouldn't eat rabbits, rabbits shouldn't eat grass'. Therefore, it was ridiculous for her to use force to persuade the tiger, rabbit, and grass to live in harmony and drink the northwest wind together. Mogana didn't want to ruin the image of Whispering Jean in her subordinate's mind. It was enough for her to be the only one who knew about her dark history.
.
"Sigh…I was really stupid just now! I was just thinking, how could Yuqin be so barbaric…But now I understand, it's all her parents 'fault for abandoning her! If I find out who her parents are, I'll beat them up!”
.
"It's good that you know your mistake. You can go down first. Also, ask the others on the ship to tidy up their appearance. Make yourself more handsome. Yuqin will come over to take a look later and leave the best side of you in her first impression.”
.
"Eh? Isn't Miss Yuqin…"
.
"Your wife is quite capable."
Mogana chuckled.
"She played the emotional card and managed to trick Ren Yuqin into becoming her goddaughter. Yuqin has agreed to come to the Queen with her to meet her 'sister', as well as you, her nominal' adoptive father'. You better wrap up this deceiving skin for me. Don't let any flaws leak out. She might not even look at others, but you, her godfather, are definitely her focus. If anything goes wrong and you scare them away…Hmph…you better prepare to clean for a year!!”
