He didn’t want to die, and he didn’t want the Harpies to die either. However, Eternal Night refused to give up hope. Even he couldn’t shed the psychological biases that came with being a Harpy. If the Harpies were to be wiped out, then none of the other Intelligent Races should be allowed to survive either.Įternal Night, in some sense, was also a normal person. This kind of thought process was an inherent part of the human psychology.Įternal Night recognized the immense threat that Su Chen posed if he were to remain alive.īut why should he pay the price for an act that would greatly benefit all of the other Intelligent Races? If we are going to die, then we’ll all die together! I don’t get along with the other clans, and I won’t accept them giving any less than me. So what if we’re doomed? Then we’ll all just be doomed together. Why should I pay ten thousand when the Ji Clan is only paying three thousand? Why are they not doing anything, but I am required to make a sacrifice? I can provide assistance, but only if they do as well. And yet another very important reason was, “Why me?” Others might think that they wouldn’t be of much help and that the country would surely be able to withstand the invasion on its own. It was possible that they could survive by paying a relatively small fee to the invaders. For example, just because the country was going to fall didn’t mean that their clan necessarily would. Was it that these nobles were blind and couldn’t understand the consequences of a successful enemy invasion? If the emperor asks the rich merchants and nobles to use their resources and manpower to defend the capital at all costs, then despite the dire predicament, the response would usually be lackluster.
For example, say that an enemy force had invaded deep into a country’s territory and was knocking on the capital’s front door. This had happened throughout history many times before.
