The Daily Life of a Hogwarts Terrorist

To say that "human desires" are the driving force of historical development does not mean that people should worship evil or commit any evil. However, it is difficult to derive a positive and constructive value system from the premise that "human desires were also created by God." The direct conclusion is simply unlimited indulgence.

Human desires are evil, but they are not solely evil. Human desires also reflect human freedom or free will. However, the unrestrained indulgence of human desires will ultimately lead to self-destruction.

While the linguistic hegemony of faith certainly restricts human freedom, it at least has one positive effect: it embodies basic human moral requirements and maintains the essential basic order necessary for human social life.

However, after the Enlightenment destroyed the foundation of faith, how to rebuild this basic order and basic moral values ​​of human life became an urgent task for thinkers.

What followed was humanism, or rationalism.

The human being in humanism is a "rational person," while the rationality in rationalism is human rationality.

Or to put it more clearly, when we determine that humanity is the foundation of value, reason is the essence of humanity, and when we determine that rationalism is the highest law of value, this reason is actually humanity itself.

Reason and humanity are essentially the same thing, just two aspects of the same principle.

Only then did humanity break free from the shackles of religion, but there is still a long way to go before they can deal with human desires correctly and scientifically.

Husserl, Kant, Freud, William Dilthey, Jean-Paul Sartre...

Phenomenology, personalism, spiritualism, existentialism...

In the process of studying human behavior, countless scholars and numerous schools of thought have emerged.

The one who truly used scientific methods to summarize and synthesize the theories was the Britannian scholar Abraham Maslow and the Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory he created!

Under his theory, humanity gained a clear understanding of its own desires for the first time. This understanding was not limited to the vague realm of philosophy, but was more accessible, easier to understand, and more effective in guiding human activities through sociology, economics, and even microeconomics, thus inspiring humanity to move forward.

Through Maslow's research, humans discovered that their needs (human desires) comprise five levels.

First level: Physiological needs

Breathing, water, food, sleep, physiological balance, secretion, sex; if any of these needs (except sex) are not met, the physiological functions of an individual cannot operate normally.

In other words, human life would be threatened. In this sense, physiological needs are the primary driving force behind human action.

Only after these most basic needs are met to the extent necessary for survival can other needs become new motivating factors. At this point, these relatively satisfied needs cease to be motivating factors.

Second level: Security needs

Human beings, as an organic whole, are a mechanism that pursues safety. Human sensory organs, effector organs, intelligence, and other energies are mainly tools for seeking safety. Even science and worldview can be seen as part of satisfying the need for safety.

Only when personal safety, health protection, resource ownership, property ownership, moral protection, job security, and family safety are all guaranteed can people live with dignity!

The third level: the need for affection and belonging.

Everyone desires mutual relationships and care. Emotional needs are more nuanced than physiological needs, and they are related to a person's physiological characteristics, experiences, education, and religious beliefs.

Fourth level: The need for respect

The need for respect can be divided into internal respect and external respect. Internal respect refers to a person's desire to feel capable, competent, confident, and independent in various situations.

In short, internal respect is a person's self-esteem. External respect refers to a person's desire for status and prestige, to be respected, trusted, and highly regarded by others. Maslow believed that satisfying the need for respect enables people to be confident in themselves, enthusiastic about society, and experience the usefulness and value of their lives.

Level 5: The need for self-actualization

It refers to a person who realizes their personal ideals and ambitions, maximizes their personal abilities, achieves self-realization, accepts themselves and others, has enhanced problem-solving abilities, improved self-awareness, is good at handling things independently, requires undisturbed solitude, and needs to accomplish everything commensurate with their abilities.

In other words, people must do fulfilling work to experience the greatest happiness. Maslow proposed that the paths taken to satisfy the need for self-actualization vary from person to person. The need for self-actualization is about striving to realize one's potential and becoming more and more the person one aspires to be.

The five needs are like steps, ascending from low to high, level by level. However, this order is not completely fixed and can vary, with various exceptions.

For example, physiological needs and safety needs.

Some people may believe that satisfying physiological needs is enough to maintain social stability, but their thinking is too superficial and simplistic.

Especially in modern society, even in developed societies, unrest still occurs. Given the power of the EU and Brittany, is it not possible to ensure that all its citizens have enough to eat?

Yes, of course. In fact, in some EU countries, there are quite a few people who live comfortably on unemployment benefits for the rest of their lives. "Supporting the lazy" has even become a social phenomenon.

But being able to eat their fill does not mean they will not resist when they are oppressed and plundered!

When basic security needs are not met, individual unrest begins, often resulting in crime. Conversely, when the security needs of the majority of people are not met, societal unrest begins.

The advantage of democracy lies in its ability to allow people to more directly resist oppression and exploitation through elections, demonstrations, and other means. However, this resistance is also weaker and less likely to achieve its goals. This is because the best outcome of democracy is often a compromise between the oppressor and the oppressed; oppression persists, but both sides have yielded. Alternatively, the ruling class may devise more covert and difficult-to-detect methods of exploitation.

In contrast, under the rule of toxic ideology, all contradictions are concealed beneath a facade of harmony. The ruling class can use forceful means to unify all voices, but the contradictions will not be eliminated. They will only accumulate under the shadows until one day they erupt in a way a hundred times more radical than democracy—a revolution.

As for the students of Class 1-F, the reason they participated in the test summoning war under Mr. Seamus's instigation was because of their physiological needs—their food was threatened.

So when Millie Ashford promised to deal with the logistics supervisor who was making things difficult for the Japanese students, the students in Class F, whose lunch safety had been ensured, inevitably lost their original motivation to participate.

But if there's no bread, why not just eat cake?

Since the students in Class F no longer had any needs or motivation, Mr. Seymour created new needs for them.

"Ladies and gentlemen! I regret to inform you of something! From now on, participation in the Ashford Academy Summoning War will be mandatory for all grades and classes! And..." At this point, Mr. Seamus's face curled into a wicked smile: "The students of the winning class can issue one order to the students of the losing class! An absolute order guaranteed by the power of the student council! Note that I said everyone can have this power once!"

Class 1-F fell silent instantly!

The boys were restless, excited. A single command? A command to do whatever they wanted? "You want me to do xxx?" (I don't want you to do xx!)

Originally trampled underfoot by Brittany and despised by other classes, they can now gain both physical and psychological satisfaction from playing a game! This is truly wonderful news!

The girls were anxious! The girls were scared! Basically, they thought of everything the boys could think of. Didn't you see that Ms. Takashiro Saya had already started reciting legal statutes for comfort?

From the "Regulations on the Protection and Development of Youth" to the "Civil Liberties Act," from the "Interpretation of the Marriage Law" to the "Amendment to the Criminal Law," Saya Takashiro recited long passages of legal articles almost in a hoarse, trembling, and cursing tone: "Article 236 of the Criminal Law stipulates the following punishments for raping women: Raping a girl under the age of fourteen shall be considered rape and punished more severely. Anyone who rapes a woman or a girl under the age of fourteen, under any of the following circumstances, shall be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than ten years, life imprisonment, or death..."

Well, the high school boy's enthusiasm was quickly extinguished.

Making a fortune in three years is certainly good, but is a death sentence worthwhile?

That was just a joke!

But just then, Mr. Seamus's devilish voice rang out again: "Ahem, I've thought it through. Although it's an absolute order, it can't be illegal. However, if it's about forcing someone to become your lover, that's not impossible~ Although the law prohibits forced marriage, can it prohibit dating?"

A flame of hope rekindled in the boy's eyes! That's right! If we can't go for the absurd and grotesque route, we can still go for pure love!

However, the first person to stand up and cheer was a girl who surprised Mr. Simo... (To be continued.)

101. Chidori-kun, I did this for you~ to flirt with Serinuma Kae or something...

♂』????????“Hi! Hi! Mr. Ximo! I have a question!”

Serinuma Kae, female, with a bust size that appears to exceed that of Takagi Saya, not to mention Mirei and Chidori. Her existence is a silent declaration of dominance, and even Chidori and Takagi combined cannot match Serinuma's stature.

Yes, you read that right, it's the quantity!

When she stood up, Mr. Seamus, no, all the boys in the class thought they were seeing things.

Winter is already over, so why am I still seeing snowmen?

Below that round head is an even rounder and larger body, with no neck visible. What else could it be but a snowman?

A round, flesh-colored snowman wearing a school uniform!

Unsurprisingly, many people gave him a mocking look.

Mr. Seymour was momentarily stunned before saying, "Uh, I remember you are, Serinuma Kae, right? What's the problem?"

"Ah, Shimo-kun, it's so great that you can remember my name~" Serinuma Kae seemed to be very happy to be remembered by a member of the opposite sex, and an "innocent" smile appeared on her face.

For some reason, seeing Serinuma's smile gave Mr. Seimu a feeling of being healed, but...

I just can't bring myself to find it cute...

In reality, for most boys, and most high school students, the instinctive reaction to seeing Serinuma Kae's voluptuous body is to ignore the ordinary and marvel at the superiority of the Japanese system. A look of utter disdain is the reaction of most scumbags.

However, as the first girl to raise her hand to ask Simo a question during the class meeting, Mr. Simo naturally gave her preferential treatment. Actually, although she wasn't particularly cute, Mr. Simo surprisingly found her quite pleasing to the eye.

How can you look down on someone just because they are fat?

Judging people by their appearance?

That's not halal at all!

You know, fat people have many advantages over others!

For example, they have a good personality and don't get angry easily; for example, they have a large appetite, which boosts domestic demand and directly contributes to the GDP of n skinny people every year; and for example, they are large in size, which can hold a lot of liquid bombs!

If you hollow out Serinuma, fill it with explosives, and then drag it to the governor's mansion, pretending to be a fan of Clovis, then if Clovis dares to go out, the next day's news will be his obituary.

Tsk tsk~ Serinuma Kae~ What an excellent mobile talent (prop)!

It has a large tonnage, high load capacity, and looks easy to control!

Although it has problems with slow movement and high maintenance costs, Mr. Seamus can afford to maintain it. As for movement, it is worth sacrificing some movement for higher attack power for this super-heavy assassin. It is a disposable item, so why worry about it?

"As expected, I have an eye for beauty!" Mr. Simon nodded smugly, and even gave Serinuma a "kind" smile.

This smile caused trouble. Although they had only met for the first time yesterday, the students in Class F of the first year had never seen Simo so amiable.

Chidori, who had been secretly observing Seimu from the side, was extremely jealous at this moment. Why did he pretend to ignore me last night, and not even greet me when we met this morning? But he smiled so brightly at Serinuma?

The students sitting below the podium, both boys and girls, rubbed their eyes wide with suspicion: "Could it be that Ximo-kun has feelings for Huayi/that fat woman? This is true love/heavy taste!"

Although there were slight differences in the specific descriptions of the same phenomenon between the boys and girls in Class F, it did not prevent them from reaching the same conclusion:

“I have feelings for a woman! I absolutely have feelings for a woman!” Li Weizhong, who was sitting at the back, even blurted out his true feelings, which drew nods from those around him and Mr. Ximo’s attention, which was not noticed by others.

Mr. Seamus wasn't blind. With the whole class making such a commotion, how could he not be suspicious and pay attention? [Damn it, a bunch of idiots! I'm respecting talent! In the 21st century, what's the most valuable thing? Talent! Don't you understand? Hey you, that fatso named Li Wei, how dare you cause trouble! Don't leave after school tonight!]

Just as Mr. Simon, feeling wronged and about to issue a challenge to someone, someone, and someone else on the spot, he suddenly glanced nervously to his side.

As expected, Chidori's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

In an instant, Mr. Simo had a flash of inspiration. As the saying goes, every mistake has its own merit. He had been worrying about how to make Chidori distance herself from him for a while.

More importantly, as long as you have normal eyesight, although saying this might be a bit harsh on Serinuma-san, who among normal people would have a good impression of her?

Wouldn't this lay the groundwork for clearing up the misunderstanding with Chidori later?

By then, he could use doctrine to convince Miss Chidori that he was a noble person, a moral person, and a person who had transcended base desires.

It's important to know that Islam is a religion that values ​​social interaction, emphasizes human relationships, and promotes high moral standards.

The prophet said, "My mission is to perfect the morality of mankind." He believed that only by possessing high moral character can one obtain happiness in the afterlife.

The Quran advocates principles for interpersonal relationships such as honesty and trustworthiness, patience, forgiveness, cooperation, humility and altruism, beautiful language, making friends with good people, and valuing etiquette.

As a noble Muslim, how could Mr. Simo possibly tolerate others judging people by their appearance and mocking someone with such high-performance human explosives...? Uh, I mean, what about the inherently pure and kind-hearted Serinuma?

So what if she's a little chubby? She hasn't done anything heinous!

It's not like there are only two fat people in the whole country, and one of them has passed away!

So, Miss Chidori, you have to believe that Mr. Seimei was only a little bit kind to poor Serinuma-san, really just a little bit!
