Chapter 1883: Chapter 387: Father, the Time Has Come for Me to Kill You!
This isnât something that happened because there are Sublimators; itâs something that inevitably happens in human society.
Itâs not my fatherâs fault; this is the inevitable outcome of our current social form and level of civilization.
Our productivity is insufficient, our morality does not meet the standards, and our level of thinking is still very primitive, which is why these unbearable things happen.
So, how do we change it?
After seeing through this point, the actions of my great-grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather, and father are all very simpleâthey all used their own methods to transform this society; everyone made mistakes and suffered hardships, and my grandfather, who came closest, even stumbled before success.
He successfully changed the productivity problem from insufficient to too much, to the point where I began to think about how to reduce the number of deaths if all the farmers in the Empire became unemployed.
Standing at the mountainâs peak, overlooking the people below who still look like ants, I still canât bear to see people suffer, but now every time I make a move, there is a sense of powerlessness. I canât see the future of our world, and I canât find the right way to transform the world.
I even discovered that my desire not to see people suffer might very well be the result of my fatherâs transformation of me.
I might originally have been a cold and unfeeling âlittle tyrant,â unconcerned with the life and death of mortals, wanting only to live in my own world and follow my desires, but now I am called the kindest prince.
I feel like throwing up; this world is boring and uninteresting, full of headaches, and yet I am still the prince of the largest nation in Terra, and the most terrifying thing is that I still want to vie for the throne, to grasp that greatest power, to transform this society and the world.
Even though I still havenât thought of any method to achieve my desire, I still want to do it.
I feel like Iâve gone crazy, and the craziest is my father.
He wants to directly brainwash and transform all humans, using the simplest, most direct method to maximize the use of its power and wisdom to transform this world and human society.
[This is not wrong. I believe if all humans have a consensus, can understand each other, and accept each other, many conflicts and exploitations will disappear. When people abandon excessive selfishness and write with each other, greater benefits will inevitably be created.]
[I believe that when this brainwashed generation dies off, the new generation will usher in a harmonious and united society.]
[But...]
Amid the confusion, Michaelâs Heart Light Body, a curled-up Light Bird, opened its eyes.
In those eyes, what flashed wasnât determination and resolve but a great fear: [But really, is it just one generation?]
[Even if my father only wants to brainwash one generation and leave the Terra People a clean world, but what about me? Will I accept my fatherâs consensus of brainwashing? Will I initiate a second brainwashing?]
[If itâs not me who inherits the throne, will my elder brother accept fatherâs consensus? What about my elder sister? What about my other brothers and sisters? My offspring, their offspring?]
[There will always be someone dissatisfied with the current world, dissatisfied with the current order, dissatisfied with the current human consensus, dissatisfied with their souls not aligning with their heartâs visionâthus launching another brainwashing!]
[By brainwashing all of humanity, weâve opened Pandoraâs box of disastersâwonât other Fifth Energy Level powerhouses of other countries mimic us? Will no one use this simple and direct method of controlling all citizens?!]
[I oppose this brainwashing, precisely because I have been brainwashed by my father since childhoodâif, if I were my original self, if I were that original, indifferent, unconcerned with humans, indifferent to peopleâs suffering âSunbird,â instead of this persona marked by my fatherâs mental transformation, stamped and imprinted with a persona of being compassionate towards all beings, would I really... care?]
[I could have long since unlocked the mark imprinted on my soul, but I am afraid... Iâm scared that the real me, the real Sunbird, is a âmadmanâ who doesnât care about any life... I even understand my father, if I were the emperor, I would also... I would also]
[Give my children the âbenevolentâ mark]
ââSo, is this my true self?
In the chaotic space-time entirely composed of aether, the golden divine bird trembled, and a â?â mark flickered on its forehead, precisely Skyrule Dragonâs doubt. This, originating from the Ancestral True Dragonâs authority, is so powerful that, combined with Michaelâs strength and will, it allowed him to reach the verge of touching immortality.
But as a price, Michael questions himself.
Questions his own heart, dreams, and desires, questioning whether he is right or wrong, whether he can imprint himself completely and unrepentantly into the aether, and subsequently ascertain that this is the true, unfalse, eternal, and immortal âself.â
Michael can achieve thisâhe is a true genius, undoubtedly the strongest of this generation of the Setal Imperial Family. If he were to inherit the Top Seatâs Blood, he would certainly be the first to comprehend immortality, becoming a powerhouse comparable to the leader of a great country.
However, at this final step of imprinting immortality, he became lost.
Is this self, transformed by his father, âbenevolent and full of action potential, filled with a martyrâs emotion,â truly him, or is it that repressed all his life, never displaying any true colors, wholly complete âSunbirdâ that is truly him.
