Beta sat in the room, carving a magic scroll. Jessica was lying on her side on the ground, her chin resting on her arm, like a husky resting with her eyes closed.

Now Jessica's bloodline behavior is becoming more and more obvious...... If she hadn't known that she was still a person, she would probably have taken off her clothes and jumped into the snow to have fun.

Beta once stopped Jessica from sleeping on her stomach, but after a few times found that it didn't work, so she let it go. Anyway, this little girl is extremely resistant to cold, and Beta suspects that even if she sleeps in the snow, it won't be too much of a problem.

As soon as he carved three magic scrolls, there was a soft knock on the door, and Beta opened it to see that it was Kyle.

Kyle came in and smiled helplessly when he saw Jessica lying on the ground. Naturally, he knew some of Jessica's little quirks, and certainly didn't feel that his teacher was abusing the maid.

"Teacher, after you and your grandmother left, I sent someone to check and found that your mission this time was very troublesome." He frowned: "The disappearance of the last envoy is so bizarre, I always feel that there may be other reasons behind this, besides Udabri is messing around." ”

Beta nodded, "I think so too, but I have to complete the task well." After all, twenty years of tax exemption is too important for my territory. ”

"Teacher, didn't you teach me that the strong don't need to abide by etiquette." Kyle was a little puzzled: "Then why do you still have to follow the rules of territorial taxes, you are already strong enough, even if you don't pay taxes, the royal family can't do anything to you." ”

Kyle is not yet eighteen years old, and in the parlance of Earth, he is still a child, and although he already understands things very well, there are some things that he really can't understand, or rather, he can't see that deep level.

Beta smiled and explained, "Etiquette is only for individuals, rules are for groups. Individuals can be capricious, but when it comes to group things, no matter how small things are, the changes that are generated, once they are put into the organization, the state and other large equivalent groups for multiplication, it is a completely different concept. ”

Looking at Kyle's dazed look, Beta explained, "Then I'll make an analogy. Let's say I don't pay taxes and resist the royal family at the same time, and I succeed. So what will the lords of other territories think, and what should they do? A lord with sufficient strength will naturally follow suit. If three or four lords succeed, then the royal family will not have enough sources of tax revenue, and it will become weaker and weaker, and it will gradually become unable to suppress the other lords, and then there will be a vicious circle, and the other lords will stand on their own, and Hollevin will become torn apart. ”

After imagining it for a moment, Kyle scratched his head and asked, "That doesn't seem to be the case with any good things." ”

"There's nothing wrong with that?" Beta smiled and said with a bit of hatred: "The consequence of this is that the warlords will divide the territory and the war will not stop. Today I will beat you, tomorrow you will kill him, and the day after tomorrow he will come and cut me again. With such a day of fighting and killing every day, what do you think will happen to the lives of ordinary people? ”

Kyle is just upright, he's not stupid, it's just that there are a lot of things he doesn't want to think too much about. Now that Beta put the question in front of him, he had to think about it, and then swallowed, and replied with some surprise and some fear: "Ordinary people may have a miserable life." ”

"Miserable?" Beta's voice rose slightly: "Human life is like grass mustard, pigs and dogs are not as good." ”

The civilization of this world is very strange, and no country has established a formal system of historians. Although there are also history books, the records are all continuous, and many history books are even processed from hearsay. It's essentially a 'knight' novel. It is no wonder that this kind of lax historical record can play a positive role.

Moreover, the literacy rate in this world is extremely low, and there are very few people with a long-term view of history.

Beta, an earthling, because he had taught history in school and read some history books himself, knew how miserable ordinary people would be during the war.

But people in this world don't have this concept.

Kyle is literate, but hasn't read anything, either. In the eyes of the general public, Kyle can be regarded as a 'reader' in addition to being a professional.

Even a young man like Kyle, who can already be regarded as a 'scholar', does not fully understand what the consequences of the division of royal power and the existence of warlords will be, let alone those ordinary people who are not literate or completely illiterate.

After listening to Beta's words, Kyle was silent for a while, but he still had some questions: "I can see that you don't have a good impression of the royal family, but why are you still willing to accept the rules set by the royal family." ”

"Because I don't want to see a mess of Hollevin." Beta smiled: "Maybe you think what I said is a bit exaggerated, and even a little dismissive in your heart, thinking that my small territory, no matter how powerful it is, it is impossible to shake the rule of the royal family?" ”

Kyle smiled dryly, he had thought so.

"Later, if you have time, think about it and you'll understand."

Beta sighed, he remembered a very famous case on Earth, helping the elderly. Although that incident, later the major media and even the official newspapers said that it did hit the old man. But the eyes of ordinary citizens do not lie in whether they really hit the old man. What chilled their hearts was the verdict process, in the absence of any human and physical evidence, the judge decided the case with the sentence 'According to common sense, you didn't hit it, why should you help'.

It is this small thing, a short sentence, that has created a bad reputation that the elderly dare not help and dare not take care of things. So much so that more than ten years have passed, and this case will be brought up every year.

The so-called embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an anthill, which is the case.

Now Beta is facing the same situation, he knows that with his own strength, it is very simple to forcibly resist taxes. But after that, if the other lords really follow the same example and force the royal family to step down, causing chaos in Hollevin, and the lords vying for the throne, what will be the consequences? He beta, now he has strength and strength, and he has power and power, but it is not as simple as 'anthill'.

Indeed, compared to the earth of the information age, the country of Hollevon has all kinds of deficiencies and all kinds of darkness.

But relatively speaking, the country is relatively peaceful. People can still live, and if they really make a mess in the world, then it's really not what people should do.

It's simple, Kyle doesn't understand it yet, but Beta knows it. In the game, he has participated in many national wars, and knows very well what kind of tragic situation will happen to those cities, villages and towns that are involved after the army. In many cases, the army is more cruel and terrible than robbers and robbers.

Without complete certainty, Beta did not want to change the balance of power structure in the country for the time being. But he believed that as long as the Cult of Waujin continued to grow, perhaps he could try to make some changes to the country.

The wetlands were a very important move, and he planned to build a holy city of the Vorgin Cult there, and he had already thought of the name of the city, which he would call:

Waukin!
