Chapter 28 Dai Lin's Lecture

"I'm contemplating a question."

"What question?"

"There are two kinds of evil in this world: lawful evil and chaotic evil."

"Sounds like something from DND?"

"Lawful evil is easy to understand, where evil is just a means, not an end. But chaotic evil is different. In the myths and religions constructed by humanity, there is often the concept of chaotic evil. For example... demons are considered a manifestation of original sin, meaning, the very existence of demons is a kind of absolute evil."

Milan picked up the teapot in front of her and slowly poured the black tea into the cup, continuing to communicate with Dai Lin in her mind: "Religion also believes that humans are born with original sin, right? Including your country, all laws choose to forgive minors' criminal offenses because it is assumed that in a state of ignorance, one naturally tends towards chaotic evil. Those born with original sin must receive education to turn towards goodness."
