Lucifel's Ideal World v.Mom

[idolpro]

—The world is ugly, he once declared.

Chaos is inevitable in this world. Pure good can’t be achieved, and pure evil breaks down. And these two extremes are always incompatible with each other. There is still some evil in a good world. That is how the world is, and it is what continues to create ugly things. Evil sneers at good, and good rages over evil. But, in a world where good and evil oppose each other, there is a group that is far more numerous that always appears.

That is ‘grey’. Neither good nor evil. A group that drifts through life haphazardly and merely exists. They don’t believe in goodness and are simply proud that they aren’t evil. Even though they affirm evil acts, they deny evil intentions. They happily say that ‘I am not evil, I am a good person’ and pardon all forms of cruelty.

They kill people while sneering. They kill people out of contempt. They kill people as part of a game. They use the excuse that they can’t restrain their desires—That’s how humans are. That’s how the world is.

Yes—this world is extremely ugly. Neither dyed by good nor fallen into evil. Unable to decide on a color, the wills of people continue to waver. As long as such evil intentions and such foul-smelling corpses aren’t destroyed.



The world will surely continue to rot eternally.

While wrapped within a curse-like fog in darkness frozen to its core.

He thus concluded.

Powers are off.
Corruptions are off.
Carry-on Weapons are not available.
Other carry-on items are available.

...How very different my life would have been, if the world had always been like this.

I think there are people who will always wish to shine brightly in some form, and others who will want to do all they can to grant security to those they love. The second group can be comforted by knowing that there is nothing for them to fear, but the first...
As long as your world gives us room to achieve great things, I think we too could find joy.

. . . Mmm, I think so, too.

So it's important, to carefully think of what to do next. Or rather . . .

Perhaps at this point, I should see how the next generation grows with these changes. Those who remember the world prior to this will have their own past to reference, but children who know nothing of the world previous may yet change in an unexpected way.

I did not realize it, but it seems a bit like growing a plant. I've learned something valuable, here.
