Chapter 798: 524. Wear and Tear and Reincarnation_3
Well, so people might turn a blind eye or slowly sche for it, while those slightly more radical might consider “liberating” their compatriots right on the spot.
Of course, there could also be those whose thoughts are so extre that they collapse into complete illogicality.
Therefore, before the apocalypse, the Glorious Divine Kingdom often had problems with “Soul Eater Syndro sufferers,” and, bizarrely, they even had so-called “robot rights organizations” clamoring daily that robots too are people, that robots should have human rights, wages, holidays, and whatnot?
These perplexing acts made absolutely no sense to the average person; what’s the point of paying robots or giving them holidays?
But in the eyes of potential “Soul Eater Syndro sufferers,” they were serious, fighting for the rights of their “compatriots.” It was noble, it was grand, they were practically taking the moral high ground.
Well, after all, although these people hadn’t completely lost control, practically all of them had so form of ntal illness within the human spectrum.
The ntally ill are often rry; it’s all too normal.
The Witch World prohibited mixed blood with other Calamity Races mainly to prevent such shifting identities from having an impact, for who knows where these hybrids would ultimately pledge their loyalty.
Even the powerful Witches feared such wear and tear; from this, the risks of such “reincarnation” are evident.
Of course, this so-called Soul Eater Syndro isn’t without hope of recovery; there are indeed ways to prevent it.
And these two solutions are none other than the two main forces of the Magic Republic today, the Magic Armored Knights and the Ard Heroic Spirits.
The Magic Equipnt of the Magic Armored Knights, to put it plainly, is also a type of cybernetic body, just a high-level kind. But the Magic Armored Knights rarely suffer from Soul Eater Syndro.
This is because the threshold to beco a Magic Armored Knight is high, and the scrutiny is strict, only allowing those whose ntal strength ets the standard to proceed to the next step of Magic Equipnt evolution.
Therefore, the Magic Armored Knights are actually following Adam’s path: as long as my personal will is strong enough to fear no wear and tear, I can naturally resist the impact of reincarnation.
As for the Ard Heroic Spirits, they take a completely different path. Their personal wills may also be strong, but definitely not as strong as the Magic Armored Knights’, and yet they can operate their completely chanical bodies without wear and tear, because soone else has taken that burden for them.
This is also how the Glory Sect deceives the populace. They claim that the power of God can resist “the Demon’s curse,” but in reality, they’re anchoring those who’ve lost control due to the collapse of self-awareness with the Power of Faith of their followers.
The sa principle applies to the Heroic Spirits; they are revered and supported by the entire population of the Magic Republic. The people believe they are heroes, they are good people, and this faith engraves a ntal seal in the Heroic Spirits’ consciousness.
Perhaps their individual consciousness could waver under the wear and tear of reincarnation, but as long as that seal of faith remains, they will never forget who they are, what their mission is.
Of course, this thod may seem beautiful on the surface, but in reality, it’s rely fighting poison with poison.
After all, if reincarnation wears people down, wouldn’t faith do the sa?
The Heroic Spirits are no longer human; they are more the heroes of the Magic Republic. They were already worn down by such faith, already transford into the embodint of belief.
That’s why, aside from the very first batch of Heroic Spirits, the Magic Republic ceased to add new ones on a large scale. Everyone who t the criteria to be on the Monunt of Heroes was first asked for their opinion, whether they could accept such wear and tear, whether they were willing to remain a hero guarding their country and people despite it.
Although this inquiry would almost always receive the sa answer: after all, those who qualify to be on the Monunt of Heroes can hardly refuse. They’ve already sacrificed themselves for their country and people once; would they really fear doing it a second ti?
They are all true Heroic Spirits.
Of course, aside from these two thods, there’s another one, which is that if everyone is ntally ill, then there are no ntally ill, right?
Well, if all of humanity were to turn into machines, then we would simply no longer be human; a new intelligent machine race would erge instead.
And this is precisely what Dorothy intends to do next.
Normally this path would be a dead end, unwalkable, because to undergo collective reincarnation, you’d first have to wipe out the whole world.
But isn’t the situation abnormal? It’s already the apocalypse; everyone is going to die sooner or later.
So then, flesh is weak, let us ascend chanically.
…Undergoing chanical reincarnation…
