The Adventurer Guild in Novice Village is always lively, with different adventurers coming in and out. When they see Aqua, a member of the Party Atmosphere Group, they always say hello politely.
Aqua posted a notice on the adventure notice board to recruit teammates: Our goal is to defeat the Demon King, so we only recruit high-level professions.
A very demanding notice, but no one came. Sato Kazuma was a little anxious. He felt that the requirements were too high. After all, he himself was a low-level businessman with no skills and could not attract high-quality teammates.
.
However, the goddess said: "I am the high priest, a super priest who can't even deal with resurrection. My teammates must match my abilities." It was really a mockery of Kazuma.
"Oh, are you recruiting teammates? This is a very good idea." Duran sent Aqua a business card: "But with the goal of conquering the Demon King, I think you'd better not write it like this."
"Hey, isn't the slot supposed to only recruit high-level professions? How many high-level professions can there be in this place? This is the adventurer base farthest from the Demon King's City. It has the same concept as the Novice Village." Kazuma
Apparently, he thinks that Duran's slot is wrong. It is the responsibility of every adventurer to defeat the Demon King, and there are not enough high-level professions in the Novice Village, so Duran is putting the cart before the horse.
But the goddess asked: "Don't you think the devil should be eliminated?"
"Of course I am not saying that the Demon King should not be eliminated, I am saying that the existence of the Demon King is in line with the objective laws of this world." Duran said: "Look, there are adventurers, adventurer unions, monsters and experience points in this world.
, these contents seem to be game settings, but in fact, if these things appear in a real world, there will be a problem, and that is who will bear the cost of fighting monsters and exploring the world. Or let me put it another way, Sato-kun,
Do you think this world is a low-demon world or a high-demon world?"
Sato was stunned. It's really hard to say, but he has played many games and is very interested in this kind of discussion: "High magic and low magic should be considered based on the destructive power of martial arts and magic. I think this world should be high."
The demon world, because I heard that powerful magic can destroy a city, and there is such a thing as resurrection magic. It cannot be a low demon world." "But does this have anything to do with conquering the demon king?" The young man didn't understand.
What did Duran want to say.
"Of course it does matter. Do you think the destructive power should be considered between high and low demons? I don't think so. I think it depends on who pays the cost of exploring the world and studying the truth. If it is a sword and
If the cost is paid by magical adventurers, then this is a high-magic world. If this cost is paid by ordinary humans, then it is a low-magic world. Now let’s think about who pays the research costs of this world?" Duran asked.
.
Sato Kazuma was stunned. He really didn't know this, but he thought it was an adventurer: "It should be an adventurer. After all, only adventurers can run around, dig ruins and the like."
But Dulan just shook his head: "The ones who really pay for the research costs are the superior gods and the destroyed ancient magic empire, while the adventurers are just resting on their laurels. Since the adventurers do not bear the research costs, they must naturally rely on gods and
If the ruins cannot be independent, then it is impossible to defeat the devil. This is the objective law of this world. Even if you defeat the current devil, other devils will appear, because these devils want to pay the cost of researching the truth themselves.
We need to break our dependence on gods and relics, and because we pay the cost, the Demon King represents the evil that breaks the rules." Duran's analysis told them that the appearance of the Demon King is in line with objective laws and is the instinct of this other world to pay for the research costs.
To cause trouble, in order not to rely on gods and ruins, someone must stand up and pay the cost on behalf of the other world in order to gain independence in the future.
If the research costs are not paid, then the world will never be independent, and if it is not independent, there will inevitably be a new demon king.
From thought to development, from independence to rejuvenation, everything has to pay a cost, and the reason why future generations can enjoy blessings and receive dividends is because the predecessors have paid the cost, and if future generations only want to receive dividends and are unwilling to pay
If the cost belongs to your own generation, your descendants will have to bear the cost in the future.
Costs will not disappear but will be passed on.
Therefore, Duran believes that the first of the two points on the notice is the problem. The devil is the representative of paying the cost, and the adventurer is the representative of receiving the bonus, so their contradiction cannot disappear.
"If you participate in a TV show, you will definitely be popular." Sato Kazuma had to admit that Duran's theory was very attractive, but he was not the kind of person who would change just because he heard the truth.
If he could change so easily, he would no longer be a stay-at-home person.
Stay-at-home, otaku, and NEET are not good words. They all represent a group of guys who cannot integrate into society. Only when children who watch the second dimension grow up, these words become more and more neutral.
I don’t think these are derogatory terms, and many people are even willing to elevate the second dimension to a very high level.
This is easy to understand. After all, all entertainment projects that have appeared since ancient times require a process of improvement.
For example, poetry is about expressing one's ambitions. Poetry has naturally been of high quality since ancient times, but poetry was the pastime and entertainment of literati and poets after dinner, so at the beginning the poetry was all erotic and almost reached the eighteenth ban, but later on
There are more and more people writing lyrics, so some poets proposed that lyrics also express aspirations and are the same as poetry, and then the status of lyrics rose step by step.
Another example is movies. When they first appeared, they could not be compared with other types of art, so the rhetoric of the Eight Arts emerged, forcibly binding movies with traditional arts such as painting and sculpture. Later, the term Nine Arts was introduced, which combined games with
Join in too.
In fact, it’s just a matter of raising a hand. It’s the same with words, the same with movies, and the same with games. Of course, the second dimension also needs to be promoted. Maybe there can be a top ten art that includes the second dimension.
If the second dimension is to be raised, more works that promote truth, goodness and beauty are needed, rather than black and dark. If anyone mentions black and dark when they talk about the second dimension, then they are setting back the wheels of history. History has proven that words, movies, and games want to
To enter the mainstream, you must cater to the mainstream ideology, and the mainstream ideology is positive energy, so you must spread true energy. Of course, in the eyes of some people, this behavior of catering to the mainstream ideology is flattery and groveling. They just want to
To make fireworks that are different is to be dark and cruel, then they are destined to be impossible to become mainstream, and don't expect outsiders to understand them.
Sato Kazuma is obviously an otaku who is incompatible with mainstream ideology. After coming to another world, his behavior is different from normal people. He is actually confused. Now he is given a goal to defeat the Demon King, but he still has no motivation. Also.
That is to say, in his heart, he does not take defeating the Demon King seriously, so he will not take Duran's theory seriously. On the contrary, Aqua is focused on defeating the Demon King so that he can return to heaven, so she doesn't care whether the Demon King is an objective law: "As long as he is defeated,
The current Demon King is fine, the other Demon Kings have nothing to do with me."
Goddess, is this good? Dulan thought to himself that you are a goddess. Why don’t you consider building a tall heroic persona like yourself? Do you want it to be so real?
But Aqua is so real, because as a goddess, she is also marginal, and her teachings are also eccentric.
