This pure philosophical perspective has almost been lost in our pragmatic times!"
The King of Illusions received the Crystal Ball, carefully feeling the essence of thought contained within.
A few minutes later, her eyes showed admiration:
"Indeed, it is an extremely valuable material for contemplation. This cross-world philosophical resonance is priceless."
"What’s important is the little fellow providing this story!"
The King of Absurdity’s tentacles danced excitedly in the air:
"Ron’s display of wisdom makes me very satisfied!
Compared to the other geniuses I provided replicas for, his performance is truly unique!"
At this point, his tone suddenly became somewhat heavy; the tentacles sketched out a few human figures in the void:
"Alas... actually, I’ve seen too many children with immense talent, who ultimately missed true wisdom."
The first figure began to manifest, a young man with a head full of silver hair:
"Remember that ’Son of Logic,’ Isaac?
At seventeen, he independently deduced the formula for space folding in three dimensions; his IQ test results amazed all the Masters..."
In memory, Isaac confidently faced the Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide, but when encountering philosophical paradoxes, his performance made the King of Absurdity sigh:
"These questions don’t have standard answers!
What I’ve learned is quantifiable knowledge, not these vague philosophical concepts! Knowledge should be precise and verifiable!"
The voice of the King of Absurdity was filled with regret:
"What a pity... such acute logical thinking, yet constrained by an obsession with ’certainty.’
He could not understand that the deepest truths often exist in the ambiguous and the contradictory."
"If he could let go of the fixation on absolute rationality, perhaps he would become a true Master..."
The second figure appeared, a blind girl filled with terror in her eyes:
"And then there’s Chloe Star Voice... blessed with innate prophetic talent, able to see countless branches of the future simultaneously.
This ability should have made her the most insightful guide..."
In memory, the girl trembled while seeking help from the Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide:
"I’ve seen too many futures, each filled with uncertainty...
Please tell me, which path is absolutely safe? I don’t want to endure the pain of choosing wrongly anymore..."
"What a heartbreaking child..."
The tone of the King of Absurdity became softer, like a kind elder reminiscing about a lost junior:
"With eyes that see through destiny, yet cursed by them.
She forgot that true wisdom is not in finding the perfect answer but in learning to dance with uncertainty."
The third figure was a strong red-haired man:
"’Genius Alchemist’ Flamel, not even a hundred years old and he recreated a prototype of the legendary Philosopher’s Stone, his creativity was simply astonishing..."
In memory, Flamel was excitedly displaying his invention, but when the Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide mentioned the cost:
"What? To give up the ability to taste delicious food? That’s too unfair!
Why must gaining power come at the cost of life’s pleasures? There must be a way without paying a price!"
"The common flaw of young people..."
The King of Absurdity sighed softly:
"They always think geniuses should enjoy privileges, not understanding that cost is the essence of power, not punishment.
If only Flamel understood the principle of ’balance of gains and losses’ sooner..."
But at this point, the King of Absurdity’s expression became more complex, even tinged with deep disappointment.
The fourth figure slowly emerged, a familiar black-haired Witch—Cassandra.
"And... my bloodline descendant, Cassandra."
"She succeeded, but also failed." The voice of the King of Absurdity was filled with regret:
"She gained the power to conquer the world but lost the heart to understand it.
Mastered the techniques of absurdity but lacked the wisdom of absurdity."
"As her bloodline ancestor, this is my greatest failure..."
The King of Illusions listened quietly and didn’t give her evaluation, unwilling to speak up at such a moment.
"But!"
The tone of the King of Absurdity suddenly became invigorated again, all tentacles pointed in a certain direction:
"Ron is different! He has a quality I’ve not seen in anyone else—true ’balance’!"
"Isaac too reliant on logic, Cassandra too eager for power, Flamel too greedy, Little Chloe dominated by fear..."
"But Ron... he has enough rationale to analyze, yet enough emotion to perceive;
he desires power, yet understands the cost;
he keeps the warmth of humanity, yet isn’t bound by emotions."
The King of Illusions nodded in agreement:
"It sounds like your expectations of this young man are high now."
"Then, as such..." she said somewhat suggestively:
"Our ’Centennial Restart Plan,’ it seems there’s no need to implement it? You’ll need to decide; after all, you are this term’s ruler."
This statement made the entire space’s atmosphere become solemn.
All treasury employees stopped their whispered conversations, focusing intently on listening to the dialogue between the two great beings.
"Haha... perhaps, and perhaps continued observation is needed..."
The King of Absurdity’s tone became evasive, clearly avoiding a deep discussion on this weighty topic.
But the King of Illusions’ gaze became sharper:
"Speaking of observation... Hector, I have a question for you."
Her slender fingertips tapped the void, producing a crisp "ding" sound:
"In the replica of the Extraordinary Comprehensive Guide, did you invest a trace of your consciousness?"
