Nanako from the yoke field: -【Eastern country foul language】-

Geto Suguru began to recall why he wanted to eliminate ordinary people all over the world...it wasn't something that required much effort.

So he woke up from his memories, looked at Ling Huan with a funny mood and said: [Mr. Ling Huan, do you know the best way to eliminate the cursed spirit? ]

【Appreciate further details. 】

[Haha, that's right, how could Mr. Reigen know that~. I'm afraid even Wu wouldn't know that? That young master——] Xia Youjie opened his hands and stared at his five fingers as if thinking. [Do you know that the best way to eliminate the cursed spirit~ is to prevent the cursed spirit from being born in the first place! ]

[Oh~, then what should I do to achieve this result? ] Ling Xuan's heart skipped a beat and he secretly said that it was not good.

It is not difficult to bring a person back if his thoughts have gone astray. What is difficult is to find out that his thoughts have gone astray. Just like Geto Suguru before today, no one could have imagined that this man who once adhered to his duties as a sorcerer would become like this...

Ling Xuan was actually somewhat relieved to meet the current Geto Xia You, because he felt that Geto Xia You could still be saved!

If one has gone astray simply because of a shock to his values, he is confident that there is still a chance to correct it.

However, looking at Geto Suguru's current appearance, it is obvious that he has some "theoretical basis" - this is a difficult problem.

As for those who are on the wrong path with or without theoretical basis, the difficulty of convincing them is probably the difference between persuading the elderly at home who are greedy for bargains to stop buying vegetables and fruits that are about to expire in the supermarket and persuading the elderly who are deeply trapped in the health care product trap to stop buying useless magnets, pillows, infrared bracelets and the like - the latter will deceive themselves.

Therefore, the key now still lies in that "opportunity", well...

[Mr. Linghuan also knows where the curse spirit comes from. 】

【The curse comes from people’s negative emotions.】

[Yes. And, after knowing this, you know? A sorcerer will not have negative emotions that can give rise to a cursed spirit.]

How come?

[Yes, how could it be - this is a secret research topic within the technical college. If we compare the curse power in the bodies of ordinary people and sorcerers, the former is like a pool of stagnant water, while the latter, because they often manipulate their curse power, has the function of self-cleaning, like running water! In other words -]

[——As long as all ordinary people in the world are eliminated and a country with only sorcerers is established, then the cursed spirits will naturally be eliminated from the source? ]

【——】

[…Is this true?]

Honestly, he was most likely joking when he said that just now... because in comics and movies, there are often such villains who think that destroying the world symbolizes a better order.

In the end, did Geto Suguru also become such a villain?

Isn’t this too ridiculous?

[Well, Getu-kun, I won’t talk about whether this is right or wrong for now - have you considered the success rate of this? ]

Success rate.

If he wants to achieve Geto Suguru's goal, then he will definitely confront all the ordinary people and sorcerers who build the existing order, right?

Let’s put the others aside for now… Gojo Satoru, Kyoumoto Poetry.

Both of them are special-grade sorcerers. Does Gojo Satoru have the ability to defeat them both?

Xia Youjie calmed down after hearing Reigen's question, as if things were back on track. [Are you not going to do it because it's difficult? ]

[Is that so~] Lingxuan laughed after hearing this.

This is what you said~

"Are you not going to do it just because it's difficult?"... This is really a good thing to say~~

[Not doing something just because it's difficult is really not right. Well, I support you, Getu-kun.]

【but--?】

[Yes, but.] Reigen stood up from his office chair. [But, hasn't Xia Yu-kun ever thought of another possibility?]

65.MYGO!!

[Another possibility...] Xia Youjie couldn't resist the temptation of the possibility raised by Reigen, and chewed over the sentence again.

When he raised his head again, there was an expectation in Xia Yujie's eyes that no one could detect.

[Specifically, what kind of possibility is that? Please let me hear it for reference. ]

[It's not a complicated method. I think Geto-kun should have thought about the possibility of this before today.] Reigen breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that he knows the crux of Geto Suguru's change, he can "prescribe the right medicine".

And in the final analysis, after sorting out the cause and effect of the matter, Liuhan actually didn't quite understand why Geto Suguru chose the more difficult and unacceptable path between the two.

[Assuming that the facts are really as what Xia Yujun said: because sorcerers often control the flow of cursed energy in their bodies, their negative emotions will not lead to the birth of cursed spirits, while ordinary people cannot control cursed energy and lead to the birth of cursed spirits - based on this assumption, Xia Yujun believes that destroying all ordinary people is the only way to prevent the birth of cursed spirits. Then conversely - let all sorcerers become "ordinary people"... or in other words, let there be no ordinary people in the world and turn all ordinary people into sorcerers, why not choose this path? ]

[I thought you were going to say something... but this is what you said~] Xia Yujie's body softened.

[How is it possible to turn all ordinary people in this world into sorcerers...]

Geto Xiayou waved his hands. It seemed that although he was aware of the existence of this option, he had never considered it deeply.

Is it because of his identity as a sorcerer that he has the problem of seeing and knowing?

Or maybe I haven’t read enough comics?

[Thinking of giving up before you even start... Well, let's put aside this kind of thing that only elementary school teachers would say. I want to ask you a question, Summer Oil-kun: Becoming opponents with Gojo-kun and Kyomoto, and destroying all ordinary people under the suppression of the entire sorcery world and the government, and the other option of turning all ordinary people into sorcerers - between these two, is the latter a much more difficult option than the former? ]

[This is different!] Geto Suguru entered a state of argumentation. While Reigen felt that his safety was guaranteed, he also started thinking about the next lines.

[First of all, in the first step, if a large number of ordinary people know about the existence of the curse spirit, then the power of the curse spirit will increase at once! ]

[Accordingly, according to what I have learned in the past few days, if the power of the cursed spirit suddenly becomes stronger, the power of the sorcerer will also be enhanced in a mysterious way, right? ]

[But in this case——!!]

[Are you worried about the casualties of ordinary people?] Reigen tilted his head. [But even if you follow your plan, there will definitely be more casualties among ordinary people. Even if you want to say that you care about the casualties of sorcerers, dying in the process of protecting the people will definitely be happier for someone who is proud of his duty as a sorcerer than being killed by you against your will~]

【…】

[Or is it that Xia Yukun is unexpectedly a bully who only cares about the weak and fears the strong? ]

[…What does this mean? ]

[The route that Xia Yukun wants to take and the route I proposed face different opponents and difficulties. Among them, Xia Yukun's plan mainly targets ordinary people, while the obstacles faced by my plan are the powerful upper echelons of both the inner and outer worlds, as well as more technical problems.]

[Killing ordinary people is easy even if you are not a sorcerer. On the other hand, the difficulty of "killing" power and killing the technical level is much more difficult, and even a sorcerer cannot do it at all.]

[In this situation, I think that it is not wrong for Getsu-kun to choose the side that is easier for himself, right? ]

[…Haha, what’s wrong with this…] Xia Youjie lowered his head. From an angle that Reigen couldn’t see, his face showed weakness and collapse.

[Ordinary people are just monkeys—selfish and only pollute the world.]

A moral issue?

I can't belittle the sorcerer in front of Summer Oil-kun...

[So in the world that only cursers exist in Summer Oil's conception, how should the behavior of current cursers be defined? If cursers wantonly kill cursers, in Summer Oil's imagined new world, how should they be treated reasonably? ]

[I... am not right! ]

[In the final analysis, you are just avoiding a more difficult choice, Geto-kun. ——What do you mean by "You won't do it just because it's difficult?" I'll just return these words to you intact. ]

【wrong! 】

[If you really care about this world, my plan should be more feasible than yours in every way. After all, it is impossible to have only sorcerers and no ordinary people in this world - or rather, it is simply too bad.]

[There is a spell to determine all the values of the human race, and the final result will never be an utopia. In my poor imagination, I can only find fragments of impressions of primitive society where theocracy is above all else.]

! ! ! ! ! ! !

【…】

Is that too much?

Well, let’s add some extra spice.

[——Moreover, knowing the existence of cursed spirits will increase the fear of ordinary people, which will in turn cause the number of cursed spirits to increase dramatically. This conclusion is not as unshakable as the truth. ]

[……] Xia Youjie slowly raised his head, and Lingxuan knew that it was his turn to continue speaking.

[Because ordinary people can't see the existence of cursed spirits, right? So, whatever the curse masters and those who control the propaganda say the cursed spirits look like, then that's what the cursed spirits look like.]

[You said you wanted to turn all ordinary people into sorcerers...]

[At least in the first stage of the plan, the cursed spirit can be either a delicate and beautiful girl with white hair and red eyes, or a dashing and majestic lady with blonde hair and red eyes.] Linghuan flicked out a finger, then raised the second finger.

[We just need to find ways to ease the pain of revealing the truth in the first stage, and when the second stage comes, everyone starts learning spells, then the situation will only get better.]

[You want everyone to learn spells... How is that possible? It's a pipe dream~]

[Again, I said the same thing - are you not going to do it just because it's difficult? Xia Yujun,] Reigen walked up to Xia Yujie bravely and put his hand on Xia Yujie's shoulder. [Do you want to act recklessly with discrimination against ordinary people and find an excuse to get yourself off the hook, or do you want to find a way to make this world a better place? ! ]

[I want the latter - I want to make this world a better place with my own efforts...]

[Then why do you actively avoid the brighter and more possible path? ! ]

[I——No! It is impossible to let everyone learn spells! What will happen to society?! The top leaders of the spell world will not agree!]

[I am really surprised. You want to become a curse master and destroy humanity, but you still care about so many things? ] Ling Xuan leaned back slightly and made a surprised expression.

[Besides, you keep saying it’s impossible, impossible… I’m just thinking about one thing.]

A strange smile appeared on Linghuan's face.

[Sugaru-kun, did you make a mistake? 】

【well?】

66.MYGO!!!

【well?】

Did I make a mistake?

Xia Youjie thought carefully about what he said and thought that he should have made no mistake.

But... the person who said this was Mr. Linghuan——

In the verbal confrontation just now, he had already clearly understood how sharp his vision had been in the past!

Mr. Linghuan is indeed a human being worthy of admiration!

Although his ideas are different from his own, and even stand on the opposite side, the thoughts revealed in his words cannot be easily erased by simple stance and hostility.

Xia Youjie believed that even if he were his current self, if he had come into contact with Mr. Reigen when he was still a human more than a month ago, he probably would not be able to treat him as a simple monkey and kill him at will.

Thinking about it this way, Mr. Ghost is really scary~~

【Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! ! 】

[…Have you thought of something good? Summer Oil-kun.] Ling Xuan's heart was beating fast. On the surface, he pretended to be calm.

[No, it’s nothing. 】

Accompanied by a burst of laughter, Xia Yujie felt suddenly refreshed and no longer had the irritability in his heart. At this time, he looked at Lingxuan and naturally noticed the unnaturalness in his facial expression.

This did not change his opinion of Ling Huan, but made him admire Ling Huan's courage even more.

Not everyone can remain calm in front of someone who can easily kill them and has the inclination and reason to do so.

If someone is fearless by nature, then Geto Xiayou would at most find it strange. But if someone already feels fear but still pretends to be calm in order to achieve their goal - Geto Xiayou doesn't think such a person is cowardly or hypocritical at all.

He admires such people even more.

Of course, someone who can not only remain calm in fear but also think and act logically is no match for him.

Just like Mr. Ghost now.

Please continue. I really want to know what I did wrong.

[Is that so? Okay, I'll continue.] Ling Xuan adjusted his surprise in one sentence, twisted his tie, and then cleared his throat and said:

[Sugaru-kun, what do you think of me? ]

[Mr. Reigen?~.] Now, Geto Suguru can look at Reigen calmly.

[He was mature in thought, steady in his work, and an adult worth looking up to—he could be said to be my ideal type in childhood.]

[Haha, it's really embarrassing to be told that in person!] Ling Huan scratched the back of his head twice. Seeing Xia Youjie's attitude when he said this, he knew that today's matter was settled!

As long as he can make sure that his next words can temporarily fool Geto Suguru, then a young man who is about to go astray will be reborn under his words!
