People are in Hakoba, the final trial at the beginning

If you can dedicate your life for justice, it is by no means a bad ending for the goddess of justice.

If the evil god who intended to destroy the lower world finally died in the hands of the hero and became a stepping stone for the hero, then Erebus would be very pleased.

But back then, it was her Astoria who sent Erebus back to the heavens.

Erebus merely returned to the heavens, far from being dead.

For example, Alfia, like Chardo, really passed on their lives to the next generation. Even if they turned into evil, they would also promote the birth of a new generation of heroes—and the evil god who claimed to be absolutely evil, clearly provoked Accidents intended to destroy Orario, only to be sent back to heaven.

The person most unable to accept this result is probably not others, but Erebus himself.

The other collaborators gave their lives. He, the evil god who planned the disaster, didn't even have to pay for his life in the end, just like a clown, he didn't even have to bear a decent result?

He obviously claimed to be evil, and he obviously failed, but he paid a negligible price?

But what if you are dissatisfied?

Even if you want to die, you can't do it, this is the so-called god!

As a god, Astria has no ability to maintain the justice in her heart, not even the ability to dedicate her life to that justice.

But after going down to the realm, she felt somewhat lucky.

If you are a person from the lower world, you may be able to uphold justice without any haze.

There are many things that justice can't do anything about in the world, and Astoria has encountered them before. In the face of those incidents, justice can't give an answer no matter what.

But in the short life of a person from the lower world, there may be a possibility that they will never encounter such an event in their entire life.

The Astria family is a family that takes justice as its banner. Members of the family will discuss what justice is from time to time. Expose this kind of thing to the outside world, which may make people laugh at childish things.

But there are differences among the Astoria family.

Some people insist on justice, some people are for justice, and some people were picked up by her at the beginning, and they yearn for her figure.

Among all the family members, Lyu is the most innocent one, and also the one who is most serious about justice.

I hope that all the family members will be able to find their own path of justice, and that they will never encounter accidents that will destroy their path of justice until they die——When the family members go out, Astoria will occasionally pray this way, although She is a god herself.

But Astoria couldn't get her wish after all.

Even if the lives of the children in the lower world are so short as to be less than a thousand years, fate is not willing to give them a happy ending.

Returning to Olalie with this kind of mood, Astoria herself couldn't describe the moment she felt when she learned from Uranus that the other world was open.

Surprised maybe?Perhaps happy?Among them, there are probably several moods mixed together.

But at that moment, Astoria had only one thought in her mind.

This is what I want.

As the goddess of justice, I hope to have the ability to decide the justice I want to uphold.

If not, at least give her a chance to work towards her ideal.

If she can't even work hard, at least let her dedicate herself to her ideals and pass on her martyrdom to future generations.

But after calming down a little bit, Astoria began to think about another thing.

Astoria knew that she was a very troublesome woman, but anyone with a righteous mind would actually have a very troublesome character.

Based on Astria's experience in running the family in the lower realm, the so-called justice is actually synonymous with suffering.

Under the rules of the gods, it is difficult to develop a family that is truly reckless, but it is also difficult to develop a righteous family that does not know how to use the loopholes in the rules of the guild.

Astoria herself admitted that if she only wanted to develop the family, then Lyu's dead-headedness would actually have a negative effect on the development of the family.

In her eyes, Lyu was like this, and in the eyes of visitors from another world, she, the so-called goddess of justice, was probably the same.

At the time, Astoria thought that it was impossible to go on like this, she had to show her worth.

In a hurry, all she could think of was to give up the principles she had been forced to stick to for hundreds of millions of years.

The set of principles she once insisted on, in the final analysis, is just a helpless insistence that she will never violate the evil way of touching, which is essentially her helpless act.

Astoria is [-]% sure that that is not what she really wants. When she becomes strong enough to be qualified to insist on her ideals, she can consider getting this persistence back, but not now.

If she insists on being so serious now that she can't even bear the necessary evil in the process, she herself doesn't know why visitors from another world would recruit her.

Picture her good-looking?

When you are not strong enough, you don't have all the capital you need. If you want to get something, you have to give up other things.

It's just that, to my surprise, Astoria didn't intend to say this in front of Lyu.

Anyway, in front of the family, Astoria still wants to maintain her perfect image of the goddess of justice, although the perfect justice she showed before is just a joke that she can't help herself, essentially ignoring the helpless injustice... But I can't stand someone as a foil.

The gods are now in the lower world.

After the lower realm, the gods sealed their divine power, mainly for the purpose of experiencing life, and would not interfere with the affairs of the lower realm on a large scale.

With such a background of the times, she, the goddess of justice, ignored the injustices of the lower realms, and it became the consensus of the gods that the gods do not interfere with the lives of people in the lower realms.

Astoria did her best to uphold justice within the rules, distributed relief, and went to the orphanage to relieve orphans in her spare time, which became the gentle kindness of the goddess of justice.

Astria herself felt that those things were only her job, and they were not worthy of praise at all, but it was just such a small matter that made her very popular in the family, and even in Olarie.

Astoria sometimes feels that she is not worthy of this popularity, and she feels a little guilty in her heart...but in addition to the guilt, there is also a little joy of the goddess of justice.

In front of Lyu, Astoria really wanted to maintain her upright and perfect side. She didn't want Lyu to know that she was a bad goddess who could turn a blind eye to some wrong things in order to fulfill her ideals.

...but we're here after all!

Astoria glanced at Su Qing, her eyes full of resentment.

She insisted on plotting against me, and asked me to speak out what was in her heart to Lyu. After thinking about it, as long as she confessed her own truth, then she would show her own private words to comfort Lyu.

The wrong things Lyu did... Except for Lyu herself, few people really take it to heart.

Even her goddess of justice.

Under Lyu's rage, he killed innocent people indiscriminately without interrogation and without evidence, and attacked a businessman who mixed innocent people. This is certainly a violation of justice—but for the goddess of justice, this is definitely not an unforgivable thing.

This impulsive indiscriminate killing of innocents is not of the same kind as the necessary evil that Erebus forced the new generation of heroes to grow up.

But if you evaluate the merits and demerits, the little effort Lyu made to maintain the order of the city far outweighs any mistakes she made, and the number of people who survived because of Lyu's activity far outnumbered the innocent businessmen she killed indiscriminately.

From the perspective of justice, of course human life cannot be counted in this way.

But from a practical point of view, tolerating such behavior is necessary for the banner of justice.

Liu Li's achievements far outweighed his mistakes. After the impulsiveness, Liu felt regretful and still wanted to act in the right way.

Even if the number of people Lyu has saved and may save in the future is far greater than the number of innocent people she killed indiscriminately, credit cannot make up for the mistakes she made-but from a realistic point of view, no family or family in any country will be reconciled because of this. She is a lv4 adventurer and a hero who has made great achievements.

Even Astoria knew that Lyu's behavior was not a necessary evil, but a product of impulse, but forgiving Lyu's evil was necessary for justice.

This kind of justice that cannot be grasped by the power that can be easily held in the hand will always be a pure ideal, and there will never be a day when the ideal will be realized in reality.

……

The good-for-nothing elf squirmed his lips.

Today's Lyu didn't know how to describe her mood.

At the very beginning, it was "Master Astoria has returned to Orario"?

After that, it was 'Master Astoria has been worrying about me'?

Afterwards, it was "the battle of Alfia turned out to be unleashed"?

Lyu thought about it for a while, and there were a lot of clues in front of him, and Lyu suddenly became a little dazed. Could it be that he was really like Kaguya's complaint, a good-for-nothing goblin, who couldn't guess things with such obvious traces?

...When I faced monsters back then, I should have been the good-for-nothing who sacrificed. Let Kaguya or Alysée survive, they would definitely not be so stupid to me!

When the co-author Astria told me to give up justice, did she tell me to give up insisting on justice, but to guard justice in the dark, even if it was in the wrong way?

Having said that, Lyu felt a little relieved in her heart, Master Astoria had done this step for her, and she couldn't continue speaking when she became depressed.

Letting the main god be exiled for several years is already an unforgivable mistake of her family. If she continues to be depressed, she will really have no face to see her dead companion after she dies.

When the soul arrives in the heavenly realm, the companions catch up on the old days...

Alysée: "Leon, I died to protect you, did you take my share and live well? Tell me about the next legendary life!"

What will she say then?

Lyu: "It's not a legend at all. After you died, I implicated Master Astoria and was exiled outside Olalie. I hid myself in a restaurant as a waiter and shut myself up for several years. I didn't renew my favor once in several years. Back then lv4, it's still lv4 now."

Does this sound like a word?

She was only concerned about being autistic before, but after seeing Astoria, Lyu felt better, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

If things go on like this, the rest of her life will be nothing... What will she do when she faces the soul of her companion after death?

Isn't she going to lose her parents because of Hui Ye's bad mouth?

Thinking of this, Lyu had the idea of ​​cheering up and working hard.

But then... Lady Astoria broke the news that she plans to give up her insistence on justice?

Let her, a family member, be kept in the dark, as the cornerstone of justice, and Lord Astria will give up that insistence, and stop avoiding the necessary evil?

With erratic eyes, Lyu laughed dryly, rubbed her eyes, and fell down unsteadily.

Did I, a good-for-nothing elf, finally go crazy because of too much mental stress?Are you hallucinating?

After all, Master Astoria has been exiled, how could she suddenly return to Orario!

It's all hallucinations, it's all hallucinations, how can there be such a good thing in the world, it's fine if Master Astoria doesn't blame me, how could she enlighten me so gently?How could the goddess of justice give up her insistence on justice?

...But even if it is an illusion, this embrace is so warm!

Lyu silently squeezed into Astria's embrace.

Astoria tilted her head in confusion, what is little Leon planning to do.

The little head of the good-for-nothing elf rubbed against the goddess's chest... Anyway, it's an illusion, so it's okay for her to be a little bolder, right?

Astoria: "???"

Chapter 42

The goddess of justice tilted her head in doubt. Is my good-for-nothing elf already at this age?And also Oedipus?

Quietly glanced at Lyu's chest, Astoria couldn't help curling her lips.

When Lyu has a child in the future, how will she support her?

The goddess of justice shrugged and looked at her lovely child lovingly...

Suddenly, Lady Justice's face became serious.

With a slap, Zhengyi's hand knife slashed on Lyu's head.

"Even if it's Leon, it's forbidden to push forward!"

Lyu covered his head, and Xiaosheng muttered, "It's clearly an illusion, yet it's so harsh..."

"Even if pretending is just a fantasy, I won't hold back!"

With three pops, a smile appeared on Astoria's face: "Are you awake?"

Lyu rubbed her aching head, looked at the goddess in front of her with a little doubt, suddenly seemed to think of something, her face flushed, and she stammered, "Ah wow wow wow, me, me, you, you, you you……"

"Okay, now that you're awake, let's get to work first!" Astoria looked at the waste wood elf gently, and rescued her family: "You still have work in the store."

"Yes, yes, yes, sorry, Master Astoria, see you later!"

The blushing good-for-nothing elf hurriedly escaped.

Watching Liu's departure, Astoria suppressed the smile on her face, and said seriously, "Mr. Su Qing...how about my proposal just now?"

"... To be honest, before I met you, I thought your character was a difficult type."

Su Qing nodded slightly, and said bluntly: "People with justice in their hearts are mostly rigid in form, but people like you who can give up everything unnecessary for the sake of their goals are more transparent."

"This is the first time seeing you, sir?" Astoria asked.

"No, the second time."

Su Qing shrugged: "Although she is not for justice, but for ideals - but she is more realistic than you."

"Then I'm curious, he must be a very good person." Astoria's eyes flickered slightly.
