house witch

Chapter 446 445. Sheep and People

"This is really a free city, there are no taboos."

The three sisters circled around this fringe city several times, but they just toured along the way without doing anything. In the end, Dorothy spoke with such emotion.

The name of the City of Sin is naturally given by outsiders, but the villains in the city never call it that. They prefer to call this city the City of Freedom, because here, as long as you have the ability and means, Then you will be truly free.

In fact, there is indeed freedom here.

Although the city lord ordered the use of force to be prohibited in the city, it was the same as the case where the otaku witch lay down when she saw someone walking and walking on the street.

Therefore, here, the extraordinary villains possessing special abilities and being able to kill people invisible are really brazen and reckless, enjoying the freedom of their power.

Along the way, when the three sisters saw some villains, they just walked into other people's homes, ate other people's food, played with other people's wives, and beat other people's children, but the male owner just sat there blankly. At the door, I numbly listened to the cries of women and children in the room and the triumphant and rampant laughter of the villain.

The strongest emotion a man can express is just to bury his face in his hands, sobbing silently.

As a mortal, he was really powerless in the face of such an extraordinary villain. Even if he tried to resist with anger, he could only lose his life in the end.

Of course, some people may say that it is better to die generously than to live so uselessly, but his own life is gone, but if he is really missing as a pillar in the family, what will happen to his wife and children?
At that time, it's not just these extraordinary villains who will bully his family, the neighbors here and there are not so fuel-efficient.

In the end, the villain came out of the house, looked at the worthless man at the door, spat in disdain, cursed useless, threw a copper coin on the man's head, and walked away.

The man looked at the copper coin that fell from his head, and an uncontrollable anger flashed in his eyes for a moment, but he finally held back and sighed.

This is also the rule in the city, giving money is not considered coercion, it is considered a transaction.

In the end, the man just threw that copper coin away numbly. Even if he starved to death, he wouldn't want this kind of money.

It's just that he didn't want it, some people wanted it, and the copper coins were picked up quickly.

In other families, some hostesses or hostesses also numbly took the money from those villains, and some had obsequious smiles on their faces.

Then these people hesitated again, but in the end they walked firmly to the houses of the neighbors who couldn't bear it and tried to resist. After that, there was another frenzy, and the screams of women and the cries of children were faintly heard.
And it is even lucky to meet villains who just play like this and leave here. Some villains threw down a few copper coins, and then kicked away the woman who was holding his leg and pleading, and then dragged him away from the house. A child leaves.

Some villains came out with a refreshed face, but there was no more movement in the room, it was dead silent.

In some houses, the smell of meat was overflowing, and then a few white bones were randomly thrown out of the window, and then were picked up by wild dogs on the side of the road.

It is strange to say that the people in this fringe city are all yellow and thin, but the stray dogs are all fat and strong, with shiny and smooth fur.

From what I can see, this is indeed a city of demons, a real purgatory on earth.

Looking at these, the three sisters reacted differently.

Alice, the youngest, was already furious. She wanted to beat up people several times, just like what she had done a month ago. The little witch still had a sense of justice.

just
"This is your family's territory. The lord of the city is Uncle Ni, and the deputy lord of the city is your mother. Alice, do you think you can solve this problem completely? Besides, such things will be too much after you become an armed witch." It's common."

Dorothy stopped the furious sister, and even asked with a smile on her face.

Afterwards, Alice fell silent, and then the little witch's eyes became a little confused, and the whole person fell into a depression at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing her sister's sudden depression, the house witch couldn't bear it, but she still didn't say anything to comfort the little witch.

If Alice is really a mortal, then she will still think that this is just a 13-year-old child, and she really shouldn't let the child see this.

But Alice is a witch, and a witch who wishes to become an armed witch, so she will see these things sooner or later, and it is not a bad thing to get in touch with them earlier.

What is the tragedy of this city of sin? Compared with the countless bones under the bright and brilliant floating island in the witch world, it is nothing to mention. The witch who lives in the sky like a god can't see the ground All the sorrows of the world.

If Alice can't even accept this, then after she graduates from Witch Academy, she leaves the shelter of home and school, and comes into contact with the real world of witches, then she will have a hard time living.

Dorothy sighed as she recalled what she had seen and heard when she was wandering on the ground with Adam once when she was a child.

Really, if she hadn't had the vow of heart to protect her heart back then, she might not have known how worn out she was.

"So, it's good to be a house witch honestly. Don't just eat radish and worry about it. You can only make yourself feel guilty."

Excessive kindness will only make oneself suffer, and the reality of powerlessness can only make people sink in despair. The world of adults has never been as simple as black and white. If you want to live life, you must always learn to convince yourself .

The house witch looked down at the hammer in her hand, then shook her head.

This kind of belief can save his hometown in his previous life, but it is not so suitable in the world of witches. After all, it is understandable that everyone is equal, but if you want people to be equal to ants, this is a bit of a fantasy.

The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is so cruel, it is better to accept the reality earlier.

Not all traversers can be the savior. With her ability, she can only have a home at most, and then entertain herself at home.

How else can you drop it, the ass determines the head, this sentence is the truth.

After all, my own compatriots haven't had enough food and clothing yet, so I don't have the time to care about the life and death of other races.

No matter how noble the belief is, it is impossible to save the world of witches. The bottomless appetite of witches cannot be satisfied by just putting a pancake on it. This is the law of the western universe.

Maybe you can still say that you can live as a vegetarian, but is it really reasonable to ask carnivorous beasts to become vegetarians because you feel sorry for herbivores?Who will uphold the grievances of plants eaten by vegetarian animals?
Even if there is a beast that really listens to you to be a vegetarian, but then it is malnourished and eaten by other non-vegetarian beasts, who is to blame?
In the cold universe, there has always been only the weak and the strong, and the survival of the fittest.

What kind of morality, what order, what justice, what evil, these are just the wishful self-deception of the small group of intelligent creatures who no longer need to starve and freeze.

The freedom of the weak is actually limited to choosing a way of life of your own. As for whether you live happily or not, the strong don't care, the world doesn't care, and the universe doesn't even care.

In the West Witch World, if you really want to be the savior, there is only one way.

That is to become an all-knowing and omnipotent god, let everything follow your will, and then all problems will not be problems.

so.
"My good sister, get up quickly."

The house witch turned her head and looked at Denisa beside her, thinking so in her heart.

After all, if you want to ask who is the closest to omniscience and omnipotence in the Western Universe, it is naturally the Three Witch Kings.

"Dorothy, why do you look at me like that?"

Sensing the gaze of her sister beside her, the shepherdess also turned her head and scratched her face to make sure that there was nothing dirty on her face, so she asked this question.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask Denisa what you think of these."

It was naturally impossible for Dorothy to tell the truth, she just asked.

"This only strengthens my opinion, relying on such a group of ignorant guys can't save themselves..."

Denisa looked as usual, although the various tragedies she encountered along the way made her a little unbearable, after all, she was still in the same situation as this group of people not long ago. burned.

Maybe it's because of this kind of empathy. She almost made a move several times at first, but she endured it in the end, and even became calmer and calmer as time went on.

"Dorothy, you didn't let go of the sheep, maybe you don't know, in fact, some sheep in the flock are much stronger than hungry wolves, but even if they are so strong, they will only shiver when faced with the attack of wolves. They tremble and don't fight back at all, even if they are a little more courageous, the sharp horns can easily pierce the wolf's fur and make those bloodthirsty beasts open their stomachs." (Sheep and wolves in the magical world, don't bring them into reality what.)
"But every time I herd sheep, I have a secret, that is, I will kill a wolf in front of the sheep, and the sheep will be in awe of me, and then I will make wolf meat into feed and feed it to the sheep. the strongest of them all."

"Slowly, I discovered that this group of sheep that used to shiver in front of wolves began to no longer be afraid, especially those few who had eaten wolf meat, and even followed behind me, actively attacking wolves. .”

"In the future, the whole flock doesn't even need me to take action. They will take the initiative to attack the wolves led by the few meat-eating sheep, and there will be more and more meat-eating sheep in the flock."

"It's just that sheep are just sheep after all, and their courage is limited to this. Although my flock is not afraid of wolves, they didn't dare to move when they encountered a leopard once before, until I killed the leopard again. The sheep regained their courage again."

"Sheep are such creatures. They are so harmless, but they dare not use them when they have power. However, they are naturally attracted to the strength of wild beasts. They will instinctively follow the winner. Just follow you, but once they encounter new enemies they haven't seen before, they will start to hesitate again until they confirm that you are still the winner."

"The flock will only dare to follow the victor, and their courage is limited to this."

The shepherdess did not answer Dorothy's question directly, but first told such a story.

At the end of the story, she looked at the slum in front of her and sighed.

"In my opinion, this is a group of the most primitive sheep. They need courage from the shepherd who represents victory."

"But, Dorothy, sheep are sheep. They will only follow the one who wins. It is unrealistic to rely on them to defeat the church. At best, they can only be your supporters, not strength. When you face dangerous times, sheep are not to be trusted."

Denisa was actually looking forward to Dorothy's point of view that man can conquer nature, but in this slum, she couldn't see any hope of victory.

Just like the flock of sheep under her command that can already eat ligers is useless when facing the church's witch hunters.

Of course, this is also because she is not strong enough to maintain the victor's personality when facing the witch hunters. Otherwise, the frenzied sheep could actually overwhelm the witch hunter team.

But what's the use of this, no matter how powerful the flock is, it can only consolidate her strength, not help her break through the limit, so the flock is good at abuse.

Having suffered once from the sheep, she didn't want Dorothy to repeat the same mistake.

If she was given another chance now, Denisa would definitely kill some sheep to eat meat for herself, and then raise herself stronger. She found that she was the one who could really rely on herself in times of crisis.

Only when you win by yourself can the sheep have the courage to follow suit.

Dorothy: "."

Let me go, what kind of sheep are you, why are you so cruel?
After hearing the good sister's words, the house witch blinked her eyes in a daze.

She always felt that the sheep in Denisa's mouth was not the same species as the delicious lamb kebab in her impression.

only.
"Humans and sheep are different after all. Humans have thoughts and emotions, but sheep do not. For sheep, their own survival is the most important thing, but for human beings, there are always some things that are higher than life."

Dorothy clenched the hammer in her hand, murmuring in such a low voice.

Although this belief cannot save the Western Universe, it is enough if it only makes the people at the bottom less miserable. Then there is nothing to worry about. This is not reality, it is just a big dream of Witch Night It's just one game, it's rare to be crazy once in a dream, so it's not a big problem.

The house witch thought so in her heart, and then she no longer acted as a bystander. She chose to enter, went straight to the door of the man from the beginning, and knocked on the door.

"Hello, can you spare a little time for your family, may I ask if you want to have some faith, anyway, it doesn't cost money, how about a little faith?"

The house witch waved a hammer and knocked on the door.
