Chapter 230: The Winter Forest
There was a spacious forest ide gaps between leafless trees It was difficult to tell whether they were trees locked within ice or just tree-shaped ice sculptures The as blowing gently, dropping snow on the travelers' clothing It took Sila and his group two days to reach this place after leaving Grea City According to Bluebird, they were three quarters of the way to their final destination It was thanks to the Fairy Kingdoress
Sila looked ahead blankly His feet continued toHe sneakily su with Dark Self in secret
”What kind of person do you think Montra is? Is he a good guy or a bad one?”
”What do you think yourself? Good or bad?” Dark Self asked back
”Why do you like to answerthe sato Dark Self, Sila frowned He was seeking an answer and not in the mood to play around In any case, Dark Self are of Sila's thoughts He sighed once and gave Sila a serious look
”I have an answer, but I doubt you'll like it You're biased and already have your own answer You only want me to support your beliefs In any case, e person Rather, he leans toward the good-guy side”
Sila furrowed his brows It was his first tie person Surprisingly, that soood guy? Do you think so because of Lo Maybe he planned to exploit Lomyok in the future”
”See? I told you wouldn't like ly believe your opinion, why did you bother asking forDark Self's reply, Sila calmed himself down ”I'm sorry Can you explain?”
Dark Self nodded ”We've been set up to be his ene, so it wasn't weird for Montra to show us hostility the way he did If it were ardless of the kind of person he is, I won't hesitate to eliminate him, just like Montra However, what about unrelated people? For example, Lomyok, who Montra er as holding so very important to you, would you take violent action and snatch it from him?”
”I wouldn't do that”
”Yes, I know Montra was the sa the hell Jade for free, he did a favor in return That's why I said he leans toward the good-guy side For the kind of person Montra is, he is ainst his comrades, he won't complain even if he is betrayed and stabbed in the back He is the type to repay favours and avenge grievances We are his enemies, so we see only his merciless side”
”Is that so?”
”I'ardless, it isn't i as they obstruct my path, I will destroy thehts He had no bias, so he could look deeper at things compared to Sila However, at the saood guys or villains meant he lacked morality
Hus However, not all hu those who do and those who don't commit a crime That line is called a conscience
What stops us e are about to commit a criht and wrong, and prevents us fro bad deeds
Such a conscience is born fro, experience, and discipline It is also born from socialization
Socialization was, in fact, another form of bias Dark Self was devoid of it, so his point of vieas broad and profound Yet, at the same time, he didn't fully understand the concept of ethics
In any case, he was ht If he followed Dark Self's line of thinking, s in his ood person like Kawin became Montra's friend, and how some people said Montra was evil while others hailed him to the point Sila found it unbearable
”What about Kimon?” Sila asked shortly
”They are surely related to the Wulin Masters association Montra wouldn't drive his guild the Wulin Masters association was a secret to outsiders, so he could infer this much based off Montra's actions
”Are they our friends or foes?” Sila asked again In fact, he had his own answer Still, he wanted a different opinion from Dark Self
”Both,” replied Dark Self It was the same answer Sila had in hiswithout the Sila started to think like Dark Self while Dark Self started to become like Sila
Both friends and foes This was the type of relationshi+p Sila currently assigned to Kih they acted like they were siding with him and clearly showed hostility toward Montra, Sila had never heard of them yet Kimon seeated him, which could mean they intend to exploit him somehow
In short, until he knehat Kimon and their objectives were he shouldn't trust Kimon
”Both Montra and Kimon have yet to realize that we accidentally know about their encounter We can make use of this fact,” Dark Self proposed
”Do you think the Three Elders know about them?” asked Sila
Dark Self raised his brow and looked back at Sila as if asking him, 'Do you seriously need ht If Montra knows about them, there is no way the Elders don't The problem is how can we learn what they are?”
”If we seek the truth, the shortest way is to ask Teacher Teacher Mora is the only person on't lie to us At worst, he simply won't explain”
”I will have to find a way to contact him, then,” Sila replied to hi Mirror He opened his systeh he didn't have his teacher's contact infore from the outside world He could sie back to his teacher
Sila searched his inbox and eventually found Mora'sthe rest of the letters which he had never deleted Sila wrote ahis desire to meet Mora and hit the reply button
It had been a while since Sila last met his teacher If he included the tier without seeing hiht Mora was ame flows five times faster than outside I will have to wait for a while before getting in touch with Teacher'
Sila s to be solved To be honest, his life in Monster Soul was stressful as it was filled with battles Knowing he would meet his respected teacher soon helped his mind relax
Meanwhile, Bluebird, like others, was silently observing Sila's suspicious actions through side glances
”What's up with hio but now he is s alone,” Bluebird whispered to Burapha
”You should ask hi,” replied Burapha He was concentrating on his training regarding controlling his psychic power, so he was slightly annoyed by Bluebird nagging him
