This outcome was expected when Emiya learned of such atrocities and no one did anything to stop them. Here, I am afraid that the law has lost its proper effect. It turned into oppression of the people. "kill him?" Emiya sneered in his heart, will it be useful? When heading to the mansion, Liva also told him some basic information. However, Emiya was always skeptical about this and did not believe what Riva said. But now it seems that Mr. Leva did not deceive himself. This man is indeed a scumbag. However, a mere baron would not be punished by the laws of the empire.
One can imagine the level of corruption among the empire's upper echelons. Before Emiya could continue to think about it, Daidas in front of him was obviously unwilling to wait, and he would not stop his actions because of Emiya's thinking. "boom!" The next moment, two powerful battle axes slashed fiercely on the strange samurai sword in Emiya's hand. The violent gust of wind blew the man lying on the ground backwards. A smile appeared on Daidas' face, and the strength in his hands increased again. In terms of strength, Daidas has never been afraid of anyone. He seemed to have forgotten how his battle axe was knocked away. "Moon Breathing Type 6: Solitary Moon of the Night: Mugen" Emiya suddenly exerted his strength and slashed forward with the blade in his hand quickly. Countless crescent blades and wind blades burst out in front of Emiya. "puff--!" In an instant, Daidas's body was covered with wounds and blood gushing out. "How can it be!" Under the moonlight, Daidas flew backwards in a bloody arc. His speed, in Emiya's opinion, was too slow. The only thing that Emiya could praise was his physique and strength. With such a slow speed, it is no wonder that he was killed instantly by Brand. Daidas can only deal with ordinary people without imperial tools. It is said that fighting with strong people can gain more experience, but in fact, you may have never encountered any strong people. "Is there only one way to kill him?" After knocking down Daidas, Shirou Emiya continued to question Riva.
"There is no other way. Even if he is imprisoned in the empire, it is only a matter of time before he gets out." Leva let out a long sigh. "What about the civilians? What about their families?" "I'm afraid I'll become his burial companion." Liva told the truth without any concealment. In the eyes of the nobles of the empire, the common people are just a group of talking beasts, a tool for their own entertainment. “A deformed country!” Emiya closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. There was nothing he could do except kill him. Can torturing him bring those dead back to life? He saw the women lying on the ground looking at him with pleading eyes. A flash of silver light passed by the man. A head flew up and fell to the ground nearby. Seeing this, the women who were only left with one breath left also became contented and lost their life. She didn't even think of returning the suffering she had endured to the man. "Can I get information about them?" The extremely strange weapon in Emiya's hand dissipated, and his eyes were filled with guilt. Riva had no idea where Emiya's guilt came from, as they had clearly become the embodiment of justice this time. "Are we going to take care of them? I'll have someone give them some compensation." Riva had seen kind people before, and he knew what was in Emiya's mind. But in the empire, such an approach is of no avail. "No, no need." Emiya shook his head. He knew very well that those nobles were already capable of arresting people, let alone the assets of commoners. Giving those people compensation will only hurt them more. It's like you give a beggar a lot of money, and those who see it will beat him up and take all the money from him. Besides, no matter how valuable the property is, it cannot soothe the pain of a person's death. This kind of kindness is a deadly poison to the civilians. Even though Riva deliberately steered the carriage towards the prosperous area of the empire, Emiya also observed all kinds of bad things happening in the corners of the empire.
His eyes are not just for show, they can observe things that many people cannot observe. Originally, he thought that it was only because of the constant wars in the empire that the finances and public security in the towns were in trouble. War is very costly in terms of economy and food. Emiya originally thought that as long as the war was over, the empire would restore law and order and everything would be fine. But if the Baron has this ability to trample on the common people, what about the higher classes? The empire had long been completely corrupt. Countless bodies are found on the streets every day. It is clearly not a battlefield, but it is comparable to one. It is extremely difficult for civilians to survive there. No matter what kind of support Emiya gives to the civilians, it will be useless in such an empire. One person's kindness can never soothe the evil in the world. Chapter 67: Rot from Top to Bottom The main roads of the imperial capital were still bustling with people coming and going, and the sound of shouting could be heard everywhere. This lively atmosphere reminded Emiya of the days when he visited Yoshiwara. It was also extremely prosperous there, but compared to Youguo, the prosperity of the empire was only on the surface. In every dark alley, countless people were bullied. Not only the upper class is corrupt, but the common people are as well. Bullying the weak and abusing others are common occurrences among both the upper class and the common people in the empire. Emiya was walking on the street, while in an alley nearby several people in ragged clothes were punching and kicking a child who looked very thin. "What are you looking at!" As if noticing Emiya's gaze, a fairly sturdy man walked out. The people in ragged clothes also stopped what they were doing and looked over here. Judging from the way Emiya was dressed and his demeanor, he didn't look like a noble. What's more, those nobles don't care about these things at all. He will be very happy to see these things. Maybe even applaud and give a tip to those who commit violence. The frail child also looked in Emiya's direction. There was no plea for help in his eyes, he was just begging Emiya to leave quickly. Emiya suddenly remembered what happened to him and Shinji when they were in middle school. He was a young man surrounded by a group of bad guys. Emiya and Shinji rescued him from the hands of the bad guys. But the young man did not appreciate it, and instead started cursing.
If Emiya hadn't stopped him, with Shinji's personality, he would have quietly attacked the boy long ago. However, Emiya could never forget his pale face. It was as if Emiya and the others were not rescuing him, but pushing him into the abyss. It was not until a few days later that Emiya saw the young man covered in bruises and almost out of breath under the bridge. If Emiya hadn't passed by, the consequences would have been disastrous. He never imagined that these bad guys would do such a heartless thing. This is murder. Just when Emiya was about to find some bad theories, the boy lying on the hospital bed grabbed his hand and kept shaking his head at him. It was then that Emiya realized that he and Shinji had done nothing right that day. It was impossible for him and Shinji to stay by this young man's side 24 hours a day. These bad guys had no way to deal with Emiya and Shinji, so they could only vent their anger on this young man. In front of these bad guys, the most he would get is a beating and then hand over all his money. But because of the appearance of Emiya and Shinji, he was seriously injured and hospitalized, suffering irreversible damage. Emiya couldn't solve the problem fundamentally, so things turned out like this. If he had used his absolute strength to suppress those bad people and made them no longer have the courage to bully others, perhaps such a cruel thing would not have happened. Emiya could only clench his fists tightly. Did he really beat up those civilians? Those people were also victims of the empire, but they transferred their own suffering to others and became new perpetrators. The Emiyas do not belong to the empire, so dealing with them is not the same as dealing with the delinquents. Perhaps just because of what Emiya did today, several families were wiped out. He could also see that these people all had scars from being whipped. Maybe it's because of work, or maybe it's because they are being bullied by another abuser. No one knows whether these people are the pillars of certain families. It was impossible for Emiya to stay in the empire forever, nor was it possible for him to keep the child with him. What's the use of bringing him with him? He has no place to arrange for him. Emiya is now in a very difficult situation. He himself doesn't know whether he can survive in such a place, let alone help this child. Helping might just make him end his life sooner. This kind of thing is happening everywhere in this empire. If they were to be saved, the best way would be to change the empire from top to bottom.
Only by solving the corruption of the empire can we truly change these people. The entire empire is now rotten to the core. The oppressed people do not choose to resist, but instead choose to oppress those weaker than themselves. Emiya felt sad for this country and felt his own powerlessness. They are nothing more than the distorted products of a sick empire. "Welcome to————Xiao La Bookstore"
