Chapter 474: with translation of chapter title

Of course it's because I'm afraid you'll end up injured all over like Zhigengniao, trying to save people! Your 'helping the weak' also needs some limits, got it?

She knew Mr. Beier would certainly not keep it, but she still said it. If one day Mr. Beier could recall these words of hers in the dungeon and thus avoid a danger, that would be well worth it.

Looking at the girl's solemn and earnest expression, Beier nervously lowered his head: 'Yes, yes! Great God!'

Xingqiri's final question was to ask everyone: if they could make choices like oneself, would people still support Zhigengniao embarking on the journey of 【Harmony】?

Liuying understood Xingqiri's idea; even if he had an even greater idea, he certainly wouldn't want his loved ones to sacrifice themselves like that. Sanyue Qi wavered, not knowing how to choose.

After some hesitation, Xing chose 'support Zhigengniao embarking on the journey.'

"Heh… I see." Xingqiri slowly opened his eyes, "I understand everyone's positions. Raising these questions is merely to clarify one thing: Pinokangni's predicament cannot be saved by 【Harmony】; only through a compulsory weak 【Order】 can a true Blissful Paradise be built."

"I know how painful it is when people suffer torment, how lost they feel when they lose their way, how disheartened when things go against their wishes… even despair. All this pains me, because this cannot truly be called happiness."

"We must teach the weak how to live happily. And this 【life】 is not the refined talk of socialites and nobles, but an absolute meaning, the way of human survival."

Liuying's gaze turned stern, he asked solemnly: 'In your view… what counts as living happily?'

"Good question." Xingqiri nodded, "Human consciousness is essentially an illusion, a series of prisons named 【self-worth】. People are led by this illusion to make mistakes, yet the consequences must be borne by external things."

"When mistake after mistake fills the people, becoming untraceable… these prisons together form a jail, a natural law named 【survival of the fittest】. And 【nature】 is always accompanied by plunder and sacrifice… its opposite is called 【order】."

"What I intend to do is exactly this: place all beings' happiness under the sole 【order】. People need not make bitter choices again, need not confront humanity's weaknesses, abandon the beasts' ingrained habits, in order to build a paradise for humanity."

Next, Xingqiri cited the 'double day off' and 'triple day off' social systems as examples. In those hard-won days off, people could free themselves from life's burdens and return to spiritual peace.

"Only on such days do people not have to face the law of the jungle, and can live 【happily】 within a few short days. Alas… compared to a long life, two or three days are still too brief."

"In my view, society's ideal system should be the 【seven days off】. In Xingqiri's tomorrow, there is a second, third, and even eternal another Xingqiri—this is the face of the new world, a day of eternal tranquility with nothing to do."

Kobayashi's dragon maid.

Kobayashi's chopsticks snapped with a 'pa' sound.

"?!!! Seven, seven rest is what thing!!!?"

I must immediately support Xingqiri! By the way, can this system be popularized to Sakura Country via the heavenly canopy? Please be sure to thank immediately!

At that moment, Kobayashi seemed to see holy light behind Xingqiri.

His figure appeared extraordinarily clear, the pose of slightly puffing his chest and nodding looked incomparably… majestic! The smile at the corner of his mouth also became holy, as if it were a divine trace left by a god descending.

The floating heavenly halo behind his head seemed to, like an angel, slowly turn with a soft halo, plating his outline with a layer of illusory radiance.

Holy…… simply too holy!

Kobayashi even subconsciously held his breath.

She had to admit that she initially harbored hostility toward Xingqiri, but when the theory of 'seven days off' was proposed, all her dissatisfaction and hostility toward him vanished… where was the enemy? He was practically a saint!

"Kobayashi! Kobayashi!"

His shoulders were shaken violently, Kobayashi blinked his eyes hard, and then came to.

"Seven days off? What is that?" Tuoer tilted her head, she being a dragon newly arrived in human society and not understanding the system, so Kobayashi gave an analogy.

"Hmm…… you can understand it as: nobody has to work anymore, I can be with Tuoer all day long, and we don't have to worry about money; we can play however we want."

"All day? With Kobayashi?"

Tuoer's eyes 'whoosh' lit up, and she instantly grasped the meaning of seven days off.

So what Xingqiri described…… is practically heaven?! A heaven with no threshold, open to all!

——

Naruto.

"Seven days off?"

Uchiha Madara froze.

He originally thought his boundless illusion was already the extreme limit, but he didn't expect that there was an existence in the heavenly canopy that was not only more extreme than his, but even more extreme.

He intended to use the Moon Eye plan to control everyone in the world, creating peace in the illusion; he had never carefully considered what the 'peace' in the illusion actually looked like—is it peace if there's no war? Or if there's no oppression? Or if there's no death?

"But 'seven days off' gave him a decent template for 'peace'."

"……I really haven't misjudged him; whether it's ambition or means, this kid is top-notch. Seven days off… truly impressive that he could devise such a system, good, and the 'peace' created by Infinite Tsukuyomi ought to also be seven days off."

However, although Madara approved of Xingqiri's idea, he still retained considerable vigilance in his heart. Whatever one seeks, there is a cost, whether visible or not. Xingqiri's idea suits him very well, but the question is…… what cost is needed to achieve all this?

After all, he lacks a star core and does not possess the exaggerated power of a star god. He both wants to know how Xingqiri achieves it, and what he must pay to realize the world of 'seven days off'.

"……thus everyone can return to their original positions in paradise. Some gaze at the galaxy, intensely calculating the distance of the isolated world 【Pegasus】 from us, while others in the corner embrace each other, bearing no extra duties……"

"No longer needing to suffer the pains of reality, only thus can humanity face its destined end with the utmost purity, living a life full of dignity. This is 【living happily】."

"Miss Liuying." Xingqiri looked at the girl before him — "You, who suffer from entropy loss, must surely understand what this means, right?"
