Sword God in a World of Magic
Chapter 750
Shang wasn't sure if that was good or bad.
For now, he decided to remain silent.
"Let me explain my conundrum with a metaphor," the Lightning Emperor said.
"Imagine you are a mortal and live in a village with 50 other villagers. You don't have any sort of real societal standards and norms, and the strongest person in the village is the leader."
"Now, imagine there is a council of five leaders since they don't want to fight each other for whatever reason, and you are one of them."
"One day, you find the offspring of a very powerful beast, which is far more powerful than any member of the council."
"You nurture it, and it follows you."
"Yet, it doesn't completely follow your commands, and you know that there is a chance that it might attack you and everyone else. After all, it is still a wild beast."
"But maybe, it will also help you."
"But also only you. What if it attacks any of the others in the village?"
"Right now, the beast is still a baby."
"So, what do you do?"
"Do you nurture it?"
"Do you kill it?"
"Do you ask the others?"
The Lightning Emperor drank another mouthful of tea.
"Everything about this beast screams risk at you. No matter what happens, it will be a risk. If it isn't one for you, it definitely will be one for the village."
"But you like the village. You live in the village. You are happy with the village."
"You don't want your beast to kill other villagers."
"But it very likely will."
"So, what would you do?" the Lightning Emperor asked.
