MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master

" It's not just the dragons that beasts that exhibit this behaviour. No matter what kind of utopia i try to create , the law of the jungle always wins , this world is the survival of the fittest and if you remove the apex predators of the world then it's not like the herbivores live in utopia for the rest of their lives.

The herbivores become the carnivores and nature re-establishes order ". Beniogre sighed as she said this.

Rudra could sympathize with her somehow, he had seen enough of the human society to realise that humans were in a way no different from the shadow borns.

There was a time when man was afraid and feareful of the tiger , nobody dared to fight it much less enslave it .

However when man progressed they captured and put this magnificent beast in zoo's so that four year old children may gawk at it. It was utterly ridiculous , however all the governments in the world approved of it .

Men ate chicken , men ate beef , man at pretty much whatever man could eat without feeling any guilt over the life lost as in the eyes of men they are lesser beasts , they are not ' intelligent ' enough and their deaths mean nothing in the scale of the world.

However if one changes perspectives, maybe the lives of humans are worthless when viewed from the position of the god's. If they indulge themselves in such carnal pleasures of torturing the lesser beings like humans , then the humans would curse them , pray for their demise and yet it would make no difference to them as the humans were just too weak to affect the larger scale of things.

" Compassion and understanding one another is the only way to break this chain of destruction.

The reason why i laid down my weapons and the reason why i preach non-violence in all my followers is because only if you are compassionate to everything below you and treat ' LIFE ' itself with innate value , you cannot truly ever break this viscious cycle of cruelty that we are stuck in.

To create a true utopia , EVERY RACE must understand one another and respect each other to mentain standing peace and harmony , irrespective of strength ". Beniogre said a bit flustered and breathless.

Rudra felt something in his heart move , if he thought about it deeply enough beniogre was not wrong , and her ideals were extremely noble , however implementing her ideals was probably close to impossible.

Even if somehow humans became non violent , unless nobody in the middle realm hunted humans or took advantage of the fact that they would not fight back ,it was impossible for humans to lay down all weapons and still hope for the best , it was a recipe for racial extermination.

Even if a handful of people amongst humans became non-violent and tried to understand those around them , such a nation would be run over by barbarians or people with ambition to capture and profit off its resources and the nation's population will either end up dead or enslaven.

Beniogre's ideals were noble but she was just delusional if she thought it could work in reality. That's not how nature sustained it's ecosystem and going against nature itself was impossible.

Micheal probably realised that which was why the church of light was a good force with kindness at their heart however not really a true non-violent bunch with no active forces.

Rudra replied for the first time ever " There is no utopia , goddess Beniogre, there is just a greater good that we can strive for.

The fall of one race is the rise of another and to strive for perfection is a delusional dream . I suggest you try more humble targets ".

Beniogre shook her head and said " You sound like my husband you know , this is exactly what he used to tell me.

But no , someone has to be the fool and aim for perfection , because if even I the godess of life don't value every life equally , who will?

I do condone your killing of Lucifer if there is an alternative that sees both of you walk alive, however i also understand that Lucifer has killed millions and will kill a million more if not stopped , so while i won't stop you , i will also not support you.

A peaceful solution is the only way to truly come out of a conflict a winner , the moment you draw your weapon you have already lost ".

Rudra did not agree or disagree with beniogre he did feel he gained new perspective in life with this decision.

Beniogre said " So what i will offer you for your training and my debt to Hades , is knowledge. Knowledge about the three realms and all of its immense secrets.

Whatever you wish to know , i will tell you , so fire away halfling ".

Rudra thought for a while and then asked his first question to Beniogre and soon the second and the third.

There were interesting bits of information he got from her , about how she was not the only one capable of creating life and that Hades was too.

Death and life magic were more similar than Rudra thought and he was shocked to know that fundamentally life was just an absence of death.

Death was the natural state of things , a peaceful haven meant to be undisturbed, whereas life was a chaotic rollercoaster.

Just like how beniogre could give life , Hades could chase away death , essentially meaning he had the same power of rebirth and bestowing life like Beniogre.

Some more interesting things that Rudra learnt were that about the barrier to reaching godhood.

A mortal became a god when he became an 'icon' for a particular phenomenon.

The god of sun , the goddess of moon , the god of death and so on. Everyone was a god of something and not just a god. Which was why neither Omar nor the archangels were truly god's , they were lacking their icons and hence could not advance to tier 7 amongst a million other restrictions.
