Chapter 2547: Rustling Down (Part 42)
"This is the importance of the right to speak." Shiler poured a glass of water from the side and placed it next to the table, while Sivana, who was also leaning on the edge of the table, had already clenched his bed sheet.
He really didn't want to recall the bizarre encounter that changed his life, and he hadn't told anyone. From his perspective, from that moment on, the whole world became crazy and broken.
"The living write history, the dead can only be arranged." Shiler said: "If you live longer than everyone else, then the mouth is on you. If you want to say something, can the other party jump out of the coffin and hit you?"
"Of course, there is a premise, which is that what you say must be useful and must be convincing to others. And the premise of useful speech is that you must be useful, or even deeply respected and widely loved, isn't it?"
Sivana seemed to understand a little. Shiler said with some disdain: "You put a completely uncontrollable time bomb in your eyes, desperately chasing more and more uncontrollable power, and then rushed to the other party like a lunatic to beat them to death. Doesn't this look like you're crazy to a bystander?"
"Isn't this just as it said, you are overly greedy for power, have no self-control, are too easily tempted, so you..."
"Stop talking." Sivana's tone revealed pain. He said: "I don't know why it thinks so. I was just suddenly taken to a place, and then someone said let me touch it, so I reached out."
"I don't know what happened, and then I heard a roar. What it said was what you said. When I was sent back to the original place, I felt incomparably afraid."
"I told my father about all this, but he didn't believe me at all. He thought I was a child who loved to lie. Anger made him lose his mind. He had a car accident and lost the ability to walk, and he blamed all this on me."
"But I didn't know anything at all. I didn't know how I got there, nor did I know how I came back. I just followed my instinct to tell everyone the truth, but no one believed me!"
Sivana's emotions started to become a bit manic. Accompanied by his movements, the bandage on his right eye started to turn red. Shiler immediately pressed the call button, and the nurses rushed in.
After a while, the head nurse walked in and said to Shiler: "Sir, chatting is chatting, can you let him lie on the bed safely? And his emotions cannot be stimulated now..."
"I know, ma'am."
After Shiler's repeated assurances, the nurses left, and Sivana's emotions returned to normal.
"I think you understand a simple truth, which is that the more your enemy says what you will do, the more you cannot do it."
"But if I can't get enough power, how can I take revenge?"
"It depends on your definition of revenge. If you just want to vent for your own heart and just want to kill your enemy, then naturally you just kill your enemy. But if you want to prove some kind of doctrine, similar to that he is wrong and you are right, do you think killing him is useful?"
Sivana was silent for a while before shaking his head and saying: "But perhaps as long as I kill him, they will know he misjudged the person, and I am the stronger one..."
"The stronger evil one."
"I am not an evil one!" Sivana raised his voice and said: "I didn't do anything wrong. It was clearly them..."
"So you want to prove that you are right and the other party is wrong. What's the use of being strong?"
Sivana didn't speak, but after a while, he said in a low voice: "Isn't it only by being strong that you can prove you are correct?"
"That also depends on what you do with your powerful power. Suppose there is a very powerful person now who kills and sets fires every day, making people miserable. Even if he really controls the whole country, you will only call him a tyrant, right? Even if he is strong, what kind of good evaluation do you think history will give him?"
"And there is an uprising leader who is not as powerful as the tyrant himself, but he draws in those ordinary people who are displaced because of the tyrant's actions. They overthrow the tyrant together. In the eyes of the majority, aren't they righteous?"
Even if Sivana is not fully convinced now, he really cannot refute it. What he wants to prove is that the old man who said he wasn't worthy back then was wrong, and the way to prove it is to bring more disasters.
This can indeed make that self-righteous old man feel heartbroken, feeling that the wrong choice he made back then brought about these sufferings today, perhaps making him regret it.
But Sivana knew that this couldn't defeat him morally. He would only feel that he was unlucky to have guessed it back then, and he would only regret not taking more measures to limit this evil person, and would not reflect on who was right and who was wrong back then, and whether his actions were inappropriate.
Bystanders would also feel that Sivana was making a fuss. Because they didn't know the truth and only felt the damage caused by Sivana, when the knife cut them, they would naturally feel that the person who rose up to resist was righteous, and wouldn't care who the source was.
Sivana remembered that when he grew up and re-investigated the events of that year, he finally found the way to the Eye of Eternity. When he took the Eye of the Seven Deadly Sins in front of the old wizard, the repentance in the old wizard's eyes was definitely not directed at him when he was young.
He was just regretting that he made a wrong choice, which led to today's evil consequences, and had no reflection on his words and deeds at the time.
That look began to linger in Sivana's mind, igniting more anger, resentment, and more powerlessness.
He felt that no matter what he did, he couldn't make the other party realize the problem. That damn wizard would just think he was born evil and was tempted, leading to all this.
"So if you want to prove that you are right, then you must first have the right to speak." Shiler pulled the topic back and said: "And in an orderly society, good people, or at least people who stand on the side of justice on the surface, will have a greater right to speak."
"Justice can be words and deeds, or it can be a banner." Shiler moved his chair back a little, picked up the water glass, took a sip of water, and said: "Think carefully, how many of those self-proclaimed righteous people really took action, and how many just raised the banner?"
"How many people in this world act recklessly under the banner of justice, only considering themselves and not others, but can always suppress others with righteousness, thereby escaping punishment?"
This is the sentence Sivana agrees with most, because he thinks that old wizard is such a person. By what right do you say you are right because you guarded the Eye of Eternity for so long? What does your guarding for so long have to do with me? You did this thing right, what does it have to do with your other things being wrong?
It's just that because he did one right thing and was sought after, everyone felt he was right, and those whose lives were ruined because of his mistakes were just as he said, born evil and deserved it.
"Why can't you do this?" Shiler's whisper echoed in Sivana's ear, "If you become this kind of person, or do better than him, can't you also define him and label him just like him?"
Another devil's whisper.
"If you become a righteous person sought after by thousands, receiving the respect and love of countless people, and making everyone believe what you say, can't you also let him taste the taste of being reversed in right and wrong?"
Sivana felt his back become stiff, unable to lean on anything, as if he were being picked up by a pole, becoming a grilled fish worn on a sign.
"Can I do it?"
"In fact, you have already done it." Shiler smiled and said: "Mr. Sivana, you'd better recall, are you really completely innocent in the matter of the corpse appearing in your yard?"
Sivana's Adam's apple moved. He of course knew it wasn't. He knew how Piero died.
His neighbor was a motorcycle enthusiast who would go out racing in the middle of the night after the police got off work, but he would be relatively restrained in the community, but he was unlucky that day.
A furious and terrible robber wandered around Sivana's yard, and Piero happened to pass by on his motorcycle, becoming the unlucky scapegoat.
Sivana witnessed Piero's death, but he did nothing because he hated this Mexican guy who roared past on a motorcycle in the middle of the night. He thought he would be a trouble for their community.
"But what about now?" Shiler said: "Who is the one in trouble?"
It should have been him, Sivana thought, but now it's that stupid and reckless Clay.
Of course, there was also the reason that he and Shiler had strong psychological quality and joined forces to frame Clay, but more because he is now the respected principal of Cat Getan University.
This city needs this prestigious university, and the teachers and students in this prestigious university all need him.
That's why Luo Yi was so angry, shouting to find trouble with Clay. Does he really not know that Clay had no reason to attack him at all? I'm afraid not, but because under the pursuit of the teachers and students of Cat Getan University, the value of the principal is far higher than a police officer who hasn't been here for long.
Since Shiler knows the secret of his right eye and has the ability to directly take away the Seven Deadly Sins in his eyes, he could have directly killed him. As long as he did something in the ambulance, no one would find out.
But why is he still alive? Because Shiler is also a member of Cat Getan University, and he has many difficult students under his hand, and the psychology department also needs academic scholarships, so they must have a capable principal, otherwise everyone will face more trouble.
All this is because he has value.
Sivana understood it completely.
That old wizard dared to treat him like that, wasn't it because he was an ordinary child? If he were Raven, with an extremely troublesome and dangerous father, and a large time bomb in his body that could be called a time bomb, would this old wizard dare to speak like that?
Thinking about it, he wouldn't dare, Sivana thought with some self-deprecation.
If this old wizard had brought Raven over back then, and Raven told him that her power would explode if her emotions lost control, not only could it blow the dark space, the Eye of Sin, but even the entire Earth and outer space to ashes, then let alone touching the Eye of Sin, even if this Raven gave the old wizard a slap directly, this old man wouldn't dare to do anything, right?
"So, why not?" Shiler asked him with a smile.
And Sivana looked at this man in front of him. His smile looked very gentle, and his whole person was refined, revealing a Confucian elegance belonging to a scholar.
But the coldness and evil he saw that day were definitely not hallucinations.
Is this why Shiler can always occupy the advantage?
What a perfect human skin. So, why not? ===== CHAPTER 2548 =====
