The Empire of Reimia (3)

— I am not aware of any such cases, — admitted the enlightener, — which suggests that everyone has found their place in life and come closer to understanding harmony.

—Imir—the girl turned to him—let's reason logically. Let's imagine, for a moment, that Ikigai truly offers absolute harmony. Let's assume that 99% of all people would gladly agree to such an offer. But there will always be 1% of people who want something else. No matter how carefully you filter them out, there will always be those who will not agree, even with the best ideals. But Galmey does not know of anyone who returned from "re-education" as a non-Ikigai. At the same time, it is well known and taught in history lectures that Ikigai used the murders of political figures and ordinary mages to achieve his goals. It turns out that either the 1% of those who disagree are simply killed, or hypnosis is indeed used against them.
