Standing on the wide deck, feeling the sea breeze coming, Todd sighed as he watched the view of Anuda Harbor getting further and further away from him.

　　 took out the book that Miles gave him when he was parting, Todd turned over the first page, and there was such a sentence on it.

　　『I am willing to use everything I have in exchange for a one-minute conversation with God. 』

　　 Todd nodded slightly. If he could really know the ultimate truth of everything in the universe, everything would really no longer matter.

The book went on to write: “Humans are the freest creatures in the world and the least free slaves. In order to live in a group, we have to give up some of the powers granted by God and commit ourselves to a nation called a nation. In things."

　　 "The state has deprived the people of the rights of speech, behavior, and even life, and humans have to accept all of this. Because once we leave the country, we will drink blood, prejudice, and return to the original."

　　 "Therefore, a problem has arisen. Since human beings have given up so much freedom in order to obtain the asylum of the country; then, in turn, what kind of governance should the country adopt to provide such asylum more effectively?"

　　 "Looking at the entire history of mankind, when it comes to governance, there are no more than the following: one person rules a country, a small group of people rules a country, and everyone rules a country together."

　　 "In my opinion, these methods are not perfect, and they all have their own drawbacks."

"Let’s take "one person ruling the country" as an example. This is the status quo of the Ayub Empire. As a caliph, although I try my best to keep the entire empire running in an orderly manner, only I know how much this job is. The pain is terrifying."

"I only sleep for five hours a day and spend a lot of energy and time dealing with the affairs of the empire. Religion, people's livelihood, military, science, diplomacy, business, law, education... Because of the conflicts between factions, parties, and sects, every one I have to personally supervise and manage all fields. I’m not bragging, but I don’t think that replacing this empire with anyone else will prevent it from falling apart."

　　 "But when I die, who can continue the glory of the empire like me...?"

"Let's talk about the matter of'a group of people ruling a country.' An elite political group divided into different factions, controlling the country's political and economic lifeline, and jointly making decisions about the future of the empire. This sounds like a good thing. But the contradictions within the team, as well as the contradiction between the team and the public, will only worsen as the polarization between the rich and the poor intensifies, and finally ends in an explosive revolution. Therefore, a small group of people manages a country, It's also a road full of thorns. If you are careless, you will lose everything."

　　 "Finally, let me talk about the practice of "all people managing the country together." This approach seems the most fair and reasonable. But in my opinion, the democratic republic is the stupidest approach."

"We might as well use a simple mathematical problem to prove it. For example, there are one hundred citizens in a country. Among these hundred people, there is a rich careerist, five wise men who worry about the country and the people, and only ten eyes Money greedy, twenty self-righteous fools, and the remaining sixty-four mediocre people."

"When the country is faced with a choice, this rich careerist only needs to buy the ten greedy guys, and then let the ten greedy guys persuade the twenty idiots, and finally let the idiots use public opinion and Propaganda to create momentum and win over those mediocre people."

"In the end, the so-called democratic republic has become a farce, a farce comparing financial resources and lies. Who can use money to buy more people, who can use lies to incite more people, who can be in democracy Occupy an absolute dominant position in the country."

"Some people think that my remarks are too absolute, but the facts are often so ridiculous. The so-called people, due to differences in education, occupation, hobbies, beliefs, and intelligence, often show amazing political participation and rationality. The result. The reality is that the number of fools and mediocrities out of those 100 citizens is much higher than my assumption."

　　 "So, what should be the real and reasonable way to govern?"

　　 "I have discussed this topic with countless scholars, and slowly I have a wild imagination."

"If the ruler of the kingdom is an eternal virtuous king who is wise, rational, fraternal, and vigilant, then this monarch can lead the kingdom to eternal prosperity... But does such a virtuous king really exist? For me, just imagining to live forever has already made me tremble with fear."

　　 "Such a monarch has completely got rid of the human category, even beyond the definition of the gods, and has become a unique existence, and I call such an existence "the king of sages"."

　　 Seeing this, Todd slowly put away the books, lost in thought.

　　 "Sage King..."

　　Rachel walked to Todd's side, looked at the other person's expression, and asked softly, "Still thinking about Miles?"

　　 Todd shook his head: "I'm thinking about the future..."

Rachel drew his long hair that was fluttering in the wind, and said softly: "You have returned power to the people, and the next path must be completed by themselves. You can't be like a doting father. And take care of them forever."

　　 Todd looked at the sparkling sea and nodded slowly: "You may be right. I have done everything within my power. The future of the kingdom should belong to citizens."

Rachel leaned his head on Todd's shoulder, and his words were full of longing: "One day, when we crack the secret of the beacon~lightnovelpub.net~, we can leave here and go to heaven. Everything here will It has nothing to do with us anymore. In heaven, we can open up a piece of land, build a beautiful and dreamlike garden, and build several beautiful and quiet buildings in the garden. I, Deirdre, Of course, those who are willing to leave with you can live in that garden..."

"The first thing in heaven, I have to eat every kind of food and drink every kind of wine. As for the colorful snacks and snacks, I will buy ten refrigerators, fill them up, and open them every day. One, eat whatever you want. There are also hot pot, skewers, pan-fried, xiaolongbao..."

"Then, we can take that thing called airplane every day, soar in the sky, through the clouds, over the sea, to the most beautiful places in heaven. We can climb the magnificent snow-capped mountains early in the morning to embrace the sunrise; also In the evening, you can walk hand in hand across the soft beach and wait for the moon."

Rachel nestled his body into Todd's arms, slowly closed his eyes, and said like a dream: "When that day comes, I will have a new body, a fertile body. And we will have the first One, the second, the third child... loneliness will completely leave us away..."

　　 Todd looked at the northern sky, where there were dark clouds and undulating waves.

　　 He didn't speak, he just hugged Rachel in his arms tighter.
