Chapter 1710: Men Who See War
It is not that these four people don’t want it.
They must have make a deal, Azief thought to himself.
Since all of them have their own deal with the Order of Thinkers, Azief did not see any more time to delay on this.
“I was thinking of giving the Blood Sea to the Order of Thinkers. They are already researching it and they are the most familiar with the Blood Sea”
“I believe if they could research the Seas they would find even more benefit for the world. The Grand Researcher also send a letter of pleading to allow the Order of Thinker continuing their research and in return they would offer all of their expertise to make sure that during the transformation process, that time and space would not be so distorted that it would harm the world”
Azief waited for anyone to object and he smiles.
“Anyone have any objection in this decision?”
The other shook their heads, all of them agreeing with the verdict. Azief laughs a bit. After all, all he said is merely some justification.
But all of them knows there is interest traded in front and in the back for this matter to easily pass.
It seems Order of Thinkers influence in the world stage is not as meagre as some people thought
“It seems you all have made a deal with the Order of Thinkers before meeting me” Hearing this Raymond nodded
“It is a profitable deal. And it’s not like we know how to deal with the Blood Sea. You said it yourself. To make sure the world is stable and at peace, we needs to compromise a bit. This is what we are doing”
“Compromising” Azief nodded
This is also something he very much like to happen.
The world is finding order.
It is better if the world power who have the power to change the world could settle things using diplomacy.
Azief of course knows it is unrealistic not to think that force would be used.
But not every conflict should be settled by force.
If he could help it, diplomacy should be the step to solve some of the conflicts.
And for conflicts that could not be solved by words, then what the world power should do is make sure that innocents does not get caught up in the political games of the rulers and the powerful.
That is more important than ever in this era of gods
Azief sighed but he nodded.
Then he smiles
“Since you are all agreed and have no objection this is even better. I would still like the Order of Thinkers to research thing for us”
The other people in the room all chuckles a bit. It is true that most of the new discovery in the world could be attributed to the order of Thinkers.
And most of the world powers also cooperated with the Order of Thinkers behind the scene. The good thing about the Order of Thinkers is that while they are smart, they are weak.
They are like the weak nerd that always knowns the answer to a question but always got their lunch money taken by the jocks
It is a bit crude way of putting it but most of the world powers treat Order of Thinkers like that.
Of course, they also keep tabs on the Order of Thinkers.
If there is one thing that the people in power knows to guard against, it is against arrogance. Just because Order Of Thinkers is weak now, does not mean that they would always be weak. And because they know this, they also do not push the Order of Thinkers too much.
Most of them time, their collaboration is a win win situation for both sides.
Raymond look at Death Monarch and then ask
“What about their flagrant disregard on human experimentation? Those cyborgs, or cybernetic whatever that they created is still a direct violation of the rules that we put in” Hearing this even Hikigaya frowns a little. Oreki face is also not that good. Jean shows the most disturbed expression as he nodded
“Yes. They should be punished. If they are not, then this is a sign to others that such thing could be allowed as long as they could pay certain prices”
Jean look at Death Monarch and then he said it with his stern voice
“This must not be allowed!”
And there is silence in the room. An oppressing silence. Jean did nota vert his gaze from Azief. His eyes seems to want to communicate something to Azief
And Azief could instantly understand what Jean wanted to convey to him
It is clear that while they could see past through most of the Order of Thinkers request, and they could forgive many things the human experimentation problem would not be swept
away.
Azief look at the faces of the people in the room and it is clear that no mater how many benefits the Order Of Thinkers gave them, and no matter ow much is the capacity to forgive them, there are some things that they wouldn’t tolerate.
Azief smiles bitterly
“I guess war changes a person” Most of them would probably not be like this if not for the Weronian war.
War has always been the place where the vilest thing could happen.
But during the Weronian invasion, they see things that they have never seen before.
Cruelty in a level that they have never experience. It is one thing speaking war from a comfortable position, speaking of other people pains so easily from the comfort of your safe home, but it is different from when it really happens to you.
Then, those rational thoughts and those rational feeling is not so rational anymore.
And you will find out the gap between what you think is war and what is really war
War is hell.
There is a reason why those who goes to war utters these same word
And those who could thrive in it, is either broken or numb to it. But those with a heart would always views it as hell.
It is because of these people with a heart, that human rights were created. And it is in the absences of it, that people see what a savage people could be in a time of war.
But the war of Weronian is unique in the fact that these are not war against human. Not nations against nation. Not a group of people fighting against another group of people with the same or different interest.
It is nothing like the war that the modern world has been accustomed to.
If anything, it would be like in the ancient age where men first take up arms against titanic monsters during the time of the dinosaur.
This is a war of the species.
An alien species that come from another world that wanted to exterminate you with all of
their power.
There is no mercy in such war.
There is no rest.
Only death and destruction.
And all of the people here in this room, excluding Azief, have all seen what happens during
the Weronian War.
Experience it with their own beings.
And one of the things that repulse them the most is the humane experiments.
Some of the experiment is so vile that one would retch the things in their bowels just by
reading about the kind of experiment that is being done on humans.
The inhumanity, the cruelty, the unnecessary use of pain to stimulate certain reaction, the horrors and the evil of it all.
The callousness of it all. Azief did note experience it.
But these people do. And it is because of that during the World Council, there is an entire clause dedicated in the act against using human experimentation unless it is with consent with full knowledge of what is going to happen to you and without coercion or empty
promises.
There is many legal hoops that one has to go through to apply to use human test subjects and even if you succeed getting the permission, that is not the end of the process
Instead, it is just the beginning
You would still have to find willing subjects.
As most of these experiment would be very dangerous, most people would not want to risk it.
With magic you could simulate many things.
Azief himself could simulate many things just based on deductions.
But there is always something that could be missing.
And that missing thing is none other than human factor.
Azief deduction of the future for example would always be true, yet if that deduction is
disturbed by someone who is stronger than him, this deduction would all fall apart
This is the human factor.
Human experiment is not like that but the logic is the same.
Sometimes, the human factor needs to be considered.
How would a poison react to someone who is in Disk Formation level?
How would it react to a Seed Formation leveler constitution and body?
Does it affect all Seed Formation levelers?
Or does a certain combination of Seed changes the poison potency
Will it change its properties? Will it change something about the person using it?
Hence, even in an age of magic human experiment is still something that is needed. And
sometimes it is even more crucial especially in some ritual magic.
But is it necessary? That is the core question. Was it necessary?
And that is the question they would pose to the Order of Thinkers? And to the eyes of Jean,
Raymond, Hikigaya and Oreki, it was not
