"Provoking Her Majesty the Queen, inciting the people's hearts..."
"This is a serious crime. Your cultivation should be abolished, and you should be imprisoned for life in the Silver Prison."
The cold, chilling words came from Roland's mouth.
Soon, several squads of guards in steel armor came over, restrained the richly dressed man, and put shackles and chains on him.
However, even though he was imprisoned in shackles and had lost all his strength...
The richly dressed man continued to shout at the top of his lungs.
His expression was sincere, which was very touching.
"According to the information in the ancient books... in other dimensions and worlds! The peaceful coexistence of gods and humans is the mainstream of civilization!"
"Have faith in the gods...and then establish a church of deities...so that the church can coexist with the empire!"
"Let's live a prosperous and peaceful life, comfortably in a stable and orderly environment..."
"It's infinitely better than these days, crammed into the floating city, living in constant fear!"
"That woman is only acting out of selfish desires; she doesn't want anyone above her to be above her!"
"So you concealed the truth all this time... abandoned what should have been a peaceful and stable future, and dragged us all into this senseless calamity!"
"Don't let that woman deceive you anymore! Turn back to the Lord now, and you'll be back..."
The richly dressed middle-aged man stopped abruptly before he could finish his last words.
On the shackles, a simple mute talisman emitted a faint magical glow, forming a silent barrier that enveloped the portly middle-aged man...
No matter how hard he roared, he couldn't make a sound.
.......
Charles and Roland watched as the guards led the shackled man away until he disappeared from sight.
"Your Majesty, please excuse my poor appearance."
"He was an official in charge of culture and education... he could be considered a high-ranking official in the Holy City, but I never expected... that he would end up like this."
A hint of a sigh flickered in Roland's brown eyes...
She was no stranger to the middle-aged man whose cultivation had been stripped; her father and that man were close friends... and he could be considered her elder.
However, when she made her move, the female knight in silver armor did not hesitate for the slightest.
"Having witnessed such acts firsthand, in your opinion... this must be nothing short of blatant tyranny..."
"There is absolutely no freedom of speech... Such severe punishment for even the slightest questioning of Her Majesty the Queen... This is undoubtedly incompatible with the democracy and freedom prevalent in most other worlds..."
"For many self-proclaimed righteous outsiders..."
"Compared to gods... perhaps it is this kind of tyrant and tyranny that is wrong, and that needs to be eradicated..."
Roland's words carried a hint of self-deprecation.
But the next moment...
The female knight, however, saw Charles before her and shook her head slightly.
.......
"This is undoubtedly tyranny..."
"However, it is not necessarily wrong."
Charles's words remained calm.
“If the world is already fragmented and filled with various forces, then embracing the belief in gods and establishing a church of gods may indeed be a viable path for development.”
"Even if the gods wouldn't allow newly born powerful beings to desecrate the divine realm, causing the world's potential and possibilities to become mediocre and limited, leaving only a barren one-way street in the future..."
"But the church, which is ruled by the gods, can indeed bring order and a peaceful and stable life to the people."
"But---"
Charles paused slightly in his speech.
“But they would never allow it—”
"A completely unified human civilization, where everyone is of one mind..."
He then thought of the broken, pure white tower in the dawn world...
The broken Tower of Babel... is also proof of humanity's challenge to the divine realm.
"That's...a human being..."
"Ambition knows no bounds..."
"Humanity."
.......
Even amidst endless internal strife, slaughter, and infighting among humanity...
Yet it was still able to develop an incomparably brilliant civilization that shocked all races.
"They have traveled through countless parallel worlds and witnessed the rise and fall of countless civilizations... Some of them were even human beings before they embarked on the path to godhood."
"Therefore, they naturally know...if all that meaningless infighting, competition, and infighting disappeared, and all of humanity gathered all its strength together...what astonishing power would be unleashed."
"Even building a Tower of Babel to heaven, or even one day overturning the realm of the gods, isn't impossible..."
Charles smiled.
"Therefore, the false gods will not treat the Silver Continent, a place with immense potential and hidden dangers, with the same leniency they show towards other planes..."
"Just as described in the legend of the Tower of Babel...it caused people to lose their languages, forget their past glories and history, and turn once united people into enemies, each fighting their own battles..."
"Only by completely shattering the backbone of your civilization, and ensuring that your future generations utterly forget your past history, culture, and heritage..."
"And then use lofty pretexts such as hunting down heretics..."
"To plunge humanity, once united, back into infighting and endless internal strife..."
Only in this way can they be completely at peace.
.......
"It is about upholding our past and pride as a civilization, and carrying the weight of this history as we move forward..."
"Or perhaps they've forgotten everything, living happily in ignorance, like domesticated livestock..."
Charles paused slightly in his speech.
"Everyone will have a different answer to this question...and I respect different people's choices."
"But if I had to choose—"
"I would choose the former."
Charles's gaze fell upon the female knight Roland before him...
Yet it seemed as if it had bypassed her and landed on that pale silver throne.
"Now it seems... I underestimated your empress..."
"she is......"
"Having already known everything, and even seen parts of the future..."
"Yet he still chose to be a king, bearing the infamy and misunderstanding, embarking on this path of no return..."
The female knight Roland was suddenly startled.
Regarding the matter of restarting... this is the Empire's top secret, known to only a handful of people.
However, listening to the other person's words... it was as if they knew all the secrets behind it all.
.......
I guess I'm overthinking it...
Roland pulled his wandering thoughts back.
She cleared her throat, looked at Charles seriously, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Your movement within the Holy City will not be restricted..."
"Of course, for a legendary Planeswalker who can travel between planes... even if we really wanted to restrict him, it would be practically useless."
Although moved by Charles's words, Roland's voice remained neither humble nor arrogant.
"After all, you come from another world... and are merely a passerby in this world."
"Therefore, we have neither the right nor the ability to ask you to do anything for our world..."
"Our only hope... is that you will not help those false gods in the starry sky. As a legendary mage, you should be able to understand what I mean."
"This is not a mandatory requirement... and generally speaking, as a wizard, you wouldn't help those high and mighty false gods..."
"However, if something unexpected really does happen..."
The female knight's voice turned as cold as steel.
"So......"
