Chapter 383: Discourse On Morality

"Whatever it takes…?"

Rey found himself blurting out the very words he heard Esme say.

'What does she mean by that?'

"I mean what I said, Rey." The Half Elf answered him with a stern face. "I will do whatever I can to achieve more good than suffering around me."

For a moment, an eerie silence took over. Rey watched as Esme's lips moved to show the extent to which she was willing to go.

"... Even if it means taking the lives that I once thought was precious."

In that instant, Rey recognized just how prepared Esme was to fulfil her new disposition.

Many people often spouted off ideals, but they lacked the resolve to do anything to bring them to reality. Even back on Earth, Rey's original world, there were people who wanted radical changes to the world, or warned against certain catastrophes that would befall mankind if certain steps weren't taken.

Some of them were for objectively good causes, and they were right in their ideals.
