Chapter 10: Clashes of philosophies

Meanwhile Emiko and her sister caught up on what happened the last few days, I noticed how Elany looked infuriated. I was thinking about what she told me back then about anarchism and how the sister of Emiko, Dila, said that she had an army. Is Dila some kind of leader?

“Say… Are you satisfied with being an empress?”

Elany spilt the beans. She really was infuriated about the position Dila has in this territory.

“Why should I be dissatisfied? Since I’ve become an empress, I’ve got more access to resources, to knowledge, to power.”

“That might be true, but you can get access to resources and knowledge in anarchy as well. See our town Meinfurt as an example. Everyone is free there to choose what they want to do and if someone can’t work or don’t want to work, they’re getting support.”

“Interesting. And you think I can feed a population of 3 million like that? I don’t think so. Besides, humans want to be lead.”

“Did you ask them?”

“Why should I? They could quit anytime if they want to!”

“Oh, really? Where would they head to, exactly?”

“I don’t know… to your town?”

Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.

“And you really think that is gonna happen? I bet those ones that thought about it were threatened by violence.”

“H-how did you know?”

What the fuck?

“Milo, let’s leave for now.”

Emiko had a troubled face.

“Okay.”

“No, you don’t leave without my permission.”

“That’s for Milo to decide.”

Sheesh. Elany surely is not afraid of a half-dragon.

“Alright, the next time we see us on the battlefield, we’ll be enemies.”

That was really drastic by Dila. Has it really to be like this?

And then, we promptly stood up from the chairs next to the table dinner and headed towards the exit.

Dila was also turning her back around and headed toward a different room.

And then, suddenly Elany threw a spear shaped out of vines toward Dila.

“As if I would let a fascist walk away in front of me!”

And surprisingly, it hit Dila without her being able to dodge it. Dila however seemed to be filled with rage and began to throw flames out of her mouth toward the ground. Strangely, they grew like water around the ground, slowly filling the room and coming towards us?!

“Alright, Milo. You have to do a choice. Now. Will you forever stay in this world or do you want to get back to your old world?”

What?
