Marvel Book of Magical Events

There are five lifelike statues on the training square of the Karma Taj Headquarters. The mystic apprentices who are training in the body protection class are not surprised by the appearance of these statues, and they don't even know who put them there.

It's just that they also feel that the expressions of these statues are a little too vivid, as if they are made of flesh and blood, which makes people shudder.

Some apprentices also tried to poke the thin coat corners of the statues, but Baron Mordo grabbed them back.

There was no trace of joy on Modu's face. He knew what his junior brother was facing, and Salomon had already made a corresponding decision, and the result of this decision was right in front of him.

This made him a little worried, and he even complained about the arrangement of the supreme mage.

After all, his junior is an out-and-out cave creature, and he has rarely left Karma Taj. He is worried that Salomon will face such a thing too early, because he is too young .

Salomon, who moved the statue to Karma Taj, was sitting in front of the Supreme Master at this time. He drank the tea on the Supreme Master's table, and his sluggish spirit revived.

He told His Holiness everything he had seen and heard during the trip, including the moral dilemma he faced. Now, he desperately wishes he could get some useful advice.

You live in such a peaceful environment as Karma Taj, so naturally you did not choose to do so.

But when you leave here, when you go out, all kinds of problems will follow one after another, and what you faced before is just one of them. His Holiness pointed to the direction of the training ground, But I am very satisfied with your decision, son.

I know you have doubts in your heart, so I will give you an example, which is what I have experienced, and it will help you.

Dormammu didn't spy on the earth until now. He wanted to swallow the earth into the dark dimension since the rise of human beings, but was blocked by the first supreme mage, Agamotto. Later, I also became the supreme mage , does the same job.

In the past, there were countless people who believed in Dormammu. There was once a small village where almost everyone believed in Dormammu, just like believing in God, pious and ignorant.

They didn't know that they believed in an evil god, but their lives did become better. They could raise livestock, and the food was harvested year after year, and no one died of starvation anymore. Soon after, they held a banquet in the local area, and used the surplus grain of the year to attract many merchants and villagers from other nearby villages.

At that time, the planetary defense system was initially established, and they were still very easy to use the magic bestowed by Dormammu to summon him, and I also noticed this through the planetary defense system. Just when Dormammu was about to succeed in summoning, I appeared there. The Supreme Mage paused, and she asked Salomon, What do you think I will do?

Salomon shook his head. If he was in such a scene, he really didn't know what to do.

People who believe in Dormammu are guilty, even if they don't know what they believe in. But what about the villagers from other villages and the passing merchants?

The answer is simple. When Dormammu was about to come, I summoned a burning meteorite, which fell from the sky and killed everyone present. His Holiness said, This includes not only Dormammu's followers, It also includes nearby villagers and merchants. Do you know why I did this?

Salomon shook his head again, I don't know.

Because I can't tell who is a believer of Dormammu and who is not. But Dormammu will come soon. If I wait until I identify the innocent one by one, the earth will have been swallowed into the dark dimension The easiest, quickest, and most effective way is to kill everyone present and interrupt the summoning ceremony.

As you have encountered, you have to kill the vampire, but ordinary people are protecting him. If you insist on doing this, then you must hurt those ordinary people. His Holiness' tone was very serious, she said, But you have no choice, Salomon. No one can guarantee that the two vampires will not treat human beings as food because of their thirst for blood. It is extremely irresponsible for you to put the lives of other people in that small town on the conscience of the vampires.

We are protecting humanity as a whole, not individual individuals.

I think you should also know the rank of Barnabas. No more Dracula is allowed to appear on the earth, otherwise it will be a disaster for mankind, and under the measure of the safety of all mankind, some lives can be given up.

This truth is understood by every mystic mage in Karma Taj. Although it is very cold-blooded and ruthless, it is still the correct choice. The planetary defense system has been established long ago, and Karma Taj has been able to monitor the magic fluctuations in the whole world. We are often able to stop the spread of the situation when the believers of Dormammu or the believers of the devil or other things just start to call.

But even so, we must face this kind of problem from time to time.

Salomon lowered his head to think about what the Supreme Sorcerer had said. From the standpoint of the supreme mage, Kama Taj, and even the standpoint of protecting all human beings, this method is indeed advisable. If those terrifying existences are summoned, more people will die.

The Supreme Mage is also very satisfied to see that Salomon is thinking. Nowadays, many people in Karma Taj are blindly respecting His Holiness' decision, but His Holiness still hopes that the mystics can have their own thoughts. She very much hopes that Salomon Meng can understand her good intentions in doing so.

His Holiness continued, Kama Taj's doing this does not mean that we ignore life. If possible, we will choose to save them as much as possible. Otherwise, we will become typical utilitarians who simply measure life by quantity. This is not advisable. We know that the value of life is immeasurable, but we have to destroy a few for the sake of many lives. Value life and decide everything carefully, especially when you are determined to give up others time of life and soul.

In fact, all the enemies Salomon faced this time were within His Holiness' prediction, including ordinary people from the Corinthian family.

This mission was also arranged by the Venerable himself, in order for Salomon to face this choice in advance and make the decision himself.

Only in this way can Salomon abandon unnecessary weakness, have a decisive attitude, and finally grow into a qualified guardian according to the vision of His Holiness.

However, this choice is painful, isn't it? Salomon raised his head, Have you still carried such a burden, and it lasted for such a long time?

This is our duty. While protecting human beings, we are also bearing the sins of human beings. The Venerable's expression did not change. As long as we are still protecting human beings, such things will happen. Even without Kamatai Ji, without the Supreme Mage, someone would have made such a decision, this is a sacrifice that has to be made, and this is the price you will have to pay.

Cherish the sympathy and kindness you have now, they are precious, keep them. Only in this way can you stop ignoring the value of life when making decisions. Only in this way can you make better use of these lives. When necessary, And your own too.

Sorry, Salomon, this is not your pain, it's mine.

The Supreme Mage closed her eyes in pain, but soon, she opened them again, with no more hesitation in her eyes.

Hint, this is lawful good.
