Because Reinhardt is just so perfect, so unrealistically perfect.
Every German nation is proud to have had a super-Aryan like Heydrich in its history.
Hearing rumors, people kept praising Reinhard Heydrich for his strong character, exceptional intelligence, and extraordinary energy.
He possesses unparalleled musical talent and delicate emotions; his violin playing is deeply moving.
He is an outstanding athlete, a decathlete.
He has outstanding achievements and is proficient in skiing, swimming, sailing, flying, horseback riding, cross-country running, and fencing. He is both a sharpshooter and a master swordsman. He once ran across Germany and is now a modern pentathlon athlete.
Later, he also served as the Sports Director of the SS Reichstag.
Such a man is practically the perfect spouse candidate in a woman's eyes, one that would make her feel ashamed of herself.
Heydrich was the ideal model of Nazi racial ideology. It has been said that "when Nazis look in the mirror, they see Heydrich's image."
Moreover, Dr. Best, Heydrich's right-hand man, summarized Heydrich's life in his memoirs, believing him to be the most perfect embodiment of Nietzsche's description of the "golden-haired beast."
This isn't Reinhardt's current title of "Golden Beast," but rather Nietzsche's historical definition and interpretation of the golden-haired beast:
In order to seize power and achieve victory, "Superman" can do whatever he wants to ordinary people.
They claimed that the blond-haired, blue-eyed Scandinavians were the most superior race in the world and therefore had the right to enslave other races.
The term "blonde beast" is derived from Nietzsche's description of a "blonde-haired, blue-eyed" people.
Later, people used this word to denigrate all "strong" people who are aggressive and plundering, meaning invaders and robbers.
A modern blond youth rises from an obscure corner of the navy and, in just 10 years, becomes the most powerful figure in the most powerful empire in Europe.
Nietzsche's friend Wagner brought "The Blonde Beast" to the opera stage, and Heydrich's father conducted the orchestra in this opera many times.
Heydrich's life, as an ordinary man, was probably all about realizing the dream of Nietzsche, the "golden-haired beast."
Heydrich's story and his current fall into evil ways prove that without the constraints and norms of conscience and morality, the impulse to pursue excellence in life can be like a flood, causing all sorts of disasters.
So don't say that no one can understand Reinhardt's twisted mentality.
Viewers only need to analyze the unique sense of familiarity in the video in conjunction with Heydrich's life.
Even if one cannot empathize, one can certainly understand the sorrow of a person who is both scholarly and martial, standing at the top of the human pyramid, yet unable to feel even a sliver of a sense of accomplishment.
Matilda could understand part of Heydrich's feelings; she had been forcibly raised as a nobleman's child and had a similar mindset.
As for Skadi, I can understand and empathize with her, because her best friend Nanami is similar to Reinhardt.
Before meeting Skadi, Nanami didn't understand what the joy of hard work was. It wasn't that she was adapting to the world, but that the whole world was fearing and adapting to her.
Therefore, apart from Fujii Ren and Mary, the three of them are able to understand each other's reasons for that feeling.
“Karl and Gray told me that I haven’t shown my true abilities yet. Isn’t that outdated?”
A look, somewhere between a sneer and self-mockery, appeared on Reinhardt's face. Though it was still a smile, it was dangerous. He said:
"Just like when I was young and indulging in the delusion that I was omnipotent, Karl told me that the closer you get to the limit, the more stale you become, while Gray said to me that the more powerful you are, the more you can feel your own imperfections and flaws."
“What they both said makes a lot of sense, but only those who have reached their level can truly empathize with them. In other words, I seem to have been born into the wrong world. But if I limit myself because of this, it would be a dishonesty towards love.”
"I hate that sense of primacy. The feeling of endlessly experiencing boredom in everything I do is hardly wonderful. In a sense, it is this sense of primacy that has ruined me. I originally just wanted to be a person who could normally experience joy, anger, sorrow and happiness."
Upon hearing Reinhardt's words, Matilda, who had been silent for a long time, turned her burning red eyes toward him.
“The weaker a being is, the more it can feel its own omnipotence. You are the opposite of what Rhine said.”
"Oh?"
Reinhardt was very pleased and interested in hearing about Matilda, a formidable adversary with whom he shared a common concept of war.
"On the contrary? I would like to hear more about it."
"If you were a small fish in a world called a fish tank, you would feel that you could do anything as long as you became strong enough. But all of this is limited to the fish tank."
Matilda picked up the wine glass in front of her and swirled it. A fish formed from the wine was swimming inside the glass.
Skadi also knew what Matilda's theory was: the classic box theory, which was very applicable to all the extraordinary people present.
"I exist in my own world, where I can rewrite the rules and laws of reality at will, but that won't work in this central universe. You can be omnipotent in the fish tank, but what if you were put in a river or an endless ocean?"
Skadi said calmly and indifferently that she and Matilda did not have the same level of arrogance as Reinhardt.
Although I am proud of myself, I have also learned from someone's teachings that the higher you fly, the smaller you become.
Omnipotence and omnipotence are the ultimate results of people's pursuit of power, but very few supreme beings can truly achieve this.
In an infinite world, to only look down upon the omnipotence of a single world is to be far too insignificant.
“What you have said is very reasonable and interesting. After all, mortals have made some presumptuous claims about gods, such as being omniscient and omnipotent.”
Reinhardt smiled broadly upon hearing this.
"No, although the omniscient and omnipotent one is arrogant and exaggerated, he does exist, a superior being who transcends the overlords." X2.
Suddenly, because of Reinhardt's joke, Skadi and Matilda seemed to have triggered some kind of memory mechanism, and they said the exact same words.
These words made Reinhardt raise an eyebrow. He still felt a sense of familiarity, but there was also an interesting feeling, like a secret mission that was triggered very infrequently.
Even Fujii Ren and countless other viewers from other dimensions were involuntarily drawn in by the remarkably synchronized conversation between Skadi and Matilda.
After all, omniscience and omnipotence are merely contradictory concepts imposed by humanity on unattainable fantasies.
After Skadi and Matilda spoke, they subconsciously glanced at each other, their eyes filled with a similar searching intent.
Did the other party perhaps know or see the same thing as me?
Although there were doubts and questions, they only lasted for a moment.
"The omniscient must be omnipotent. Knowledge and power are mutually equivalent. Neither is necessarily stronger than the other. To become omniscient means that one's knowledge has surpassed the imagination of all living beings and existences, and is beyond the limitations of the world."
Skadi recalled the indescribable things she had seen in her memory and finally gave a reply that aroused Reinhardt's intense curiosity.
An omnipotent person is not necessarily omniscient, and an omniscient person is not necessarily omnipotent, because omniscience and omnipotence cannot be equated.
An omniscient being is necessarily omnipotent, but there is also the paradox of omniscience and omnipotence.
If one is omniscient, nothing is impossible; all impossibilities arise from the inadequacy of the person involved.
If one is omniscient, one must know how to turn the impossible into the possible.
Omniscience is omnipotence, and similarly, omnipotence is omniscience.
An omniscient person knows how to drive a car through the eye of a needle, while others, unaware of this method, deem it impossible; therefore, the other party is not omniscient.
"That's a very interesting reply. I'd love to meet someone at that level. You've given me a glimpse into the true meaning of Gray's words: the stronger one is, the more one feels their own flaws."
Reinhardt wore a refreshed smile. Skadi and Matilda's words had made him aware of some of his own limitations. He said:
"But I want to go to higher places and explore what I desire."
"So what do you want to say to this world...?"
When Fujii Ren saw the knowing and enlightened smile on Reinhardt's face, he immediately sensed the ominous consequences.
“A foolish question.” Reinhardt smiled calmly and indifferently: “If my love and my ambition will cause the destruction of the world, then my love is destruction.”
I want to make contact, even if the other person is too delicate and insignificant.
If you want to love, then your love will destroy the other person.
So even if it causes damage, we're willing to do it.
Reinhardt's desires were not twisted; born to stand at the highest point, his purpose was clear.
"All things, want to be held tight, want to be destroyed!"
"...It is wrong to hurt others."
Mary looked timidly at Reinhardt, whose eyes gleamed with a ferocious golden light.
When she heard that the other person wanted to hold onto Wanxiang but also wanted to destroy it, it was as if her sore spot had been touched, and she mustered up the courage to refute that it was wrong.
Reinhardt wasn't annoyed that Mary dared to contradict him; instead, his smile widened as he looked at Mary and said:
"At this moment, you are a seeker of the Dao, but your desire is gradually turning into tyranny. Is this also part of Karl and Gray's plan?"
"We are both hegemons, and you all understand the meaning of irreconcilable enmity, don't you?"
You don't approve of me, I don't approve of you. Your world is hell, my world is truth.
A clash of ideologies and desires, a conflict between two domineering forces.
Ah, what a beautiful and moving opera!
Reinhardt was now thoroughly enjoying himself, and looking forward to spending all his energy 'loving' anyone, or even everyone, present until he could no longer find anyone he loved (or destroyed).
"Are you just trying to satisfy yourself?"
Fujii Ren gritted her teeth and looked at Reinhardt for a final confirmation.
"What else could it be?"
Completely unfazed by Fujii Ren's almost interrogative words, Reinhardt stated matter-of-factly, "Once I discover a situation that I cannot reverse even with all my might, what awaits me after I overcome it is the unknown!"
After saying that, she smiled and glanced at Skadi and Matilda.
Both of them were perfectly clear about the meaning behind that look.
Reinhardt was delighted that he hadn't been able to defeat or destroy his opponent despite using all his strength.
If something hasn't been destroyed, then Reinhard will absolutely not give up.
Rather, the fact that the other party can never destroy it would make Reinhard even more enthusiastic and joyful!
That way he can keep loving (and fighting) forever.
"This is not my world, so I must actively create a world that should exist and is suitable for me, and make it function. I must create a mountain that I can climb and conquer, and that will be the end of my sense of self."
"Because I love all things and all phenomena, I must destroy them all and rebuild them!"
"We did that during World War II, but it wasn't enough. That wasn't the unknown. The result born from known laws is not the final result, even if it's on the scale of the universe. It's just misplaced to another dimension, like continents separated by the sea. That's why we need sacrifices for the next invasion."
Upon hearing this, Fujii Ren's forehead veins bulged, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, and he gritted his teeth as he said:
"So, starting with Suwahara City, the whole world has become a sacrifice!?"
"Yes."
Reinhardt smiled and ignored Fujii Ren's anger, seeing that she wasn't out of control, and continued:
