— Good luck in the Tournaments, — Leila said with a nod as she and Iori finished their training, — I'll be rooting for you.
— Likewise, bye!

When Nira finished talking to Shera and continued her walk through the academy, Elliot blocked her way.

Another heavy sigh, and he continues calmly:
-- It says there that killing is bad, and that the curse was supposed to teach people not to do it. That's true. But it also says that some people don't learn from it, because... What was it? If a sword falls into the hands of an immoral warrior, he will calmly kill, and then end his life by suicide. That's it. No miracle happened. For those who are moral, they don't need any excuses not to kill without a good reason. This is clear to any reasonable person. That is, this law teaches morality to good people, who don't need to be taught anything, by taking away their own lives, while bad people continue to live, killing their friends, whom they don't care much about. If they cared, they would kill themselves, not their friends. Okay, I won't say "good" and "bad," in your understanding, it's "valuing other people's lives" and "not valuing other people's lives." The essence of this doesn't change; those who truly value other people's lives will not take them in the first place, which means they will have to give up the military profession. Or, first of all, they will kill themselves as soon as they realize that because of the curse, they have to kill twice as many people without a reason.
-- You don't want to answer the question about the traveler, well, let's assume... Fighting corruption and injustice is, of course, right, but he may also have insurmountable circumstances as to why he didn't do it or even tried, but failed... If you can't blame the robber, then you can't blame the traveler even more. And it's a pity you didn't answer my question; it would have been interesting to hear what came next.
-- Okay... — Varya rubbed her head. — But, for example... Two friends are riding horses through the city, and suddenly a drunk man runs out from an alleyway under the horse, and they hit him. He doesn't make it to the hospital and dies. So, what should the friend who hit him do if he obeys the law of Sakimaru? It's not as if the drunk man was his opponent, but how do you maintain balance?
— I would... First, I would ban riding horses in the city, at least not at such speeds. What would you say if it wasn't a drunk man, but a small child who accidentally ran out into the path of the riders? And then I would suggest fighting alcoholism, the main source of which is not the existence of alcohol, but the social problems and the joyless lives of people. I think that's how you deal with any harmful habits. Well, I won't comment on your interpretation of the law; we obviously look at it differently.

Morning
- Ha-ha... I'm afraid it will be very difficult for me to reach the main boss, and even then, it's not a fact that it will help him... But thank you anyway.
Finally, the president, reluctantly, looked around the store to see if any merchandise with her image was still on sale or had been released, and then added:
- Well, that's all I wanted to tell you. Come to our school; there are even stranger things that happen here, ha-ha... or maybe it's better not to. Otherwise, you might go down the wrong path. Not everyone can say that they have and enjoy a family business. So, I'm also glad that I have some kind of outlet that helps me distance myself from school life. I might have continued to WORK, but after the elections, I have a lot of responsibilities... I have to sort things out, so please excuse me.
In the store, there was a life-size sculpture of Futaba in a maid costume, several posters, and a large plush toy, but none of these were on sale yet.
— I wanted to enroll at the beginning of the second quarter, along with the other foreigners, but I didn't pass the exam, so now it's impossible. Well, in general, I like my job, although it's a pity that I won't be able to see you more often, — she takes Futaba's hands in hers, — come visit us when you have time, okay?

"Chloe, Chloe, enough with avoiding the topic..." said Varya, sounding a bit like a teenager, but tired. "I'm not talking about how to solve the problem in general, but about what to do now that this has happened. The law of balance doesn't forbid being drunk, or riding horses, and everyone makes mistakes." "But the problem isn't in the interpretation. I understand the interpretation in roughly the same way as you do. I'm saying that the consequences of the law are not what it claims they are. To put it another way: if everyone in the world was afflicted by the curse of that blacksmith from Misurugi, and they all followed the curse's instructions, but lacked the moral compass to value human life, then humanity would drown in blood. If all thirty friends from my example were afflicted by this curse, then all thirty would die one by one at each other's hands. That's it. The story ends there." "But if a person already has a moral compass and values human life, then what's the point of such a curse? It will only bring them suffering; it won't give them anything they don't already know." "Of course, I'm talking about a curse, not a conviction. It's clear that someone who accepts a conviction is likely doing so with the understanding that they will never kill anyone, and that kind of commitment deserves respect. However, in that case, that person should choose the path of a healer or some other peaceful profession if they don't want to put their loved ones at risk. But still, it's unclear why someone would take on such dangerous oaths when they can value lives simply because, without any reason. Or, they could worship Mana, and then everything would be much simpler; you wouldn't violate the balance if you didn't take anyone's life, and you would be able to do it."

“Just bringing up insignificant examples and analogies is not a good idea, and I don’t want to do that. The Law of Balance prohibits being drunk because it imposes responsibility on you and an understanding of what your actions entail and what you risk. And you will be more careful when riding horses. Using your own method, but giving a more realistic and relatable example: let’s say there is a person who is generally good in terms of his qualities, he loves his family and his nation, and they love him, but for some reason, he considers another nation to be the embodiment of evil. It’s even better if such a person is in a position of power. Then what? The Law of Balance will prevent him from harming this nation because for every hated person he kills, he will also have to kill a fellow countryman whom he loves and values. Some believe that demons do not deserve the right to life and can be killed. Others believe that as long as they are not yet born, they are not people, and therefore do not have the same rights as those who are born. No matter how much you sigh, you will not find another way to solve these problems. Responsibility for one’s actions and understanding them are needed for this, and that is what the Law of Balance shows us.”

I never thought I'd say this, but I'd rather have Ikigai than "Law of Balance."

-- Excellent example, Chloe! -- Varya perked up. -- We have a ruler bound by the law of balance, and we have a people whom he considers evil. No, even if the ruler doesn't consider the other people evil. On the contrary, he tries in every way to please the other country, he negotiates with them, they have established trade, he often makes concessions to that other country. But the ruler of the other country is not bound by the law of balance, nor is he bound by moral norms. He thinks like a medieval barbarian, and for him, the first ruler's attempts to solve any problems through diplomacy are a sign of weakness. Therefore, at some point, the second ruler gathers an army and goes to war against the first, in order to enslave everyone.
-- Now, the first ruler, bound by the law of balance, must win the war, and then for every enemy killed, he must kill one of his own citizens. And, in order to strictly adhere to the law, the exchange must be strict: for every enemy warrior, one of his own warriors. The enemy soldiers are real berserkers; it is very difficult to take them prisoner; they do not want to surrender; they fight to the last... And with each enemy warrior killed, your own army dwindles... Do I need to talk about who will win in such a war? And what is the value of this ruler if, for the sake of his own beliefs, he dooms his own country to death, and his own citizens will end up in slavery? Where is the balance here? Where is the just society?
-- And conversely, nothing prevents a ruler from not waging war with anyone simply because, without any laws of balance. I repeat this many times, that without the law of balance, and simply because you want to, you can even do better, but you seem not to hear. Of course, few rulers will follow this, but few will follow the law of balance either.

— So, your example only confirms that things are worse without this law, because if both rulers followed it, such a situation would not have arisen... It's better this way than when rulers are guided by greed or insane ideologies. In my opinion, what you are suggesting, namely "doing good because you want to," is a much more fantastic plot, and the history of Lafrenia confirms this well. The only thing that limits people without principles is the law, but even it doesn't restrain those in power, and your exaggerated, absurd examples don't help this discussion, Barbarian.

Old Varya would have long ago lost interest in this discussion, but now the girl was actually enjoying it. Looking down at her interlocutor and her arguments, and arguing, the refitter was still distracted from her previous gloomy thoughts and felt a small amount of warmth towards this grown-up, naive child.
-- No, this situation would have arisen in any case, because you cannot force everyone to obey your law. If you use force for this, you will have to use force against your own allies, and in the end, you will have fewer, not more. You won't be able to persuade those who don't want to be persuaded, and you will lose your own people. And if you try to convince them with arguments, you will hardly find many fools who will sacrifice something when they can avoid it and do the same thing. Even if you convince most people, the remaining ones will drown humanity in blood, because my example about thirty friends is absolutely true to life; it is precisely about that. It only takes a few lawbreakers to ruin all your fantastic plans, even if you can fantastically imagine everything else.
-- Another problem is heresy. You understood the law correctly, but someone else will understand it in a way that benefits them. You won't be able to accuse them of anything, because outwardly, they comply with everything, but they kill indiscriminately, but is that forbidden? And he will plunge your society into chaos.
-- Here is another law of balance: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. What's wrong with that? Everyone gets what they deserve; if someone harms you, you do the same in response, commensurate with the crime. If your comrade is killed, you kill the one who killed him. Without any exceptions or concessions, everything is strictly enforced. In theory... criminals should not commit crimes in this case if the law is strictly followed, right? At the same time, you don't need to make difficult moral choices; this law is intuitively clear and simple to everyone, and it would be much easier to accept than yours. And, it seems, it was actually in use somewhere for some time... I don't remember now. But, as you can see, it's still relevant.
-- So, in reality, alas. All these "what ifs"... "What if I were a queen, and what if everyone obeyed"... The only reality available to us is the one that is before our eyes. And since that is the case, your ruler, who somehow became a follower of the Law of Balance, is either the only one or one of the few, and the first war destroyed his country. That's it. No fairy tale came true. This is not reality, but it is much closer to reality than anything you can imagine.

Toad goes to a restaurant and treats Ladia Faberge to a meal costing 500 reaks. Chloe is eating nearby. "Mmm! How delicious!" she says, patting the guy on the head. "This is exactly what men should be like, sacrificing everything for their loved ones!" "Heh-heh..." Ladia, Gideon, and Chloe each gain 1 skill point (not refreshed). An extra lesson for those falling behind (Vallota Siege) yields the following results: Sera Kapite: +1 to attack, +10 to health, +1 to accuracy, +1 to speed, +7 to willpower. Ladia Moa: +1 to attack, +2 to accuracy, +4 to dodge, +3 to speed, +1 to initiative. Chloe Cox: +4 to attack, +20 to health, +1 to initiative. Flim von Kauff: +3 to accuracy, +4 to dodge, +1 to speed, +1 to willpower, +1 to intelligence. Jaym Vishnya: +1 to dodge, +1 to willpower, +1 to intelligence. Iva Sextillion: +6 to dodge, +1 to speed, +3 to willpower. Aorix Traba: +1 to accuracy, +3 to dodge, +2 to willpower, +2 to intelligence. Neyj Asaliant: +10 to health, +1 to accuracy, +2 to dodge, +3 to willpower, +2 to intelligence. Bonita Halaine: +2 to attack, +10 to health, +1 to speed, +1 to initiative. Toad Road: +1 to attack, +30 to health, +2 to accuracy, +5 to dodge, +3 to speed, +4 to intelligence.

Compared to Toad and his deal of the century, 21 OH for OS, even Gideon is now lagging behind.
