[But that don't mean they aren't the hope for our universe]
"No, you are wrong again… We, not them, are the hope this universe holds. All the living races inside the universe hold the torch in defending it, no matter how weak or powerless they are. Supporting talents, the youngsters from all races, to rise up and be stronger, much stronger than their ancestors, is the right path, the only hope our universe holds."
[Hmm… I get what you are referring to… However, we are just advisors, wise old men on the side, speaking with advice from the side, telling people in the universe what they should and shouldn't do. But we can't force anyone, and can't prevent anyone from doing anything]
"I got your point, but…" I paused, while my entire point of debate was successfully delivered to this higher up.
What I wanted to speak about wasn't all this, but something entirely different. The youths that I met from the Hescos enlightened me about how hard it was for the young and new generation to show off and shine.
I met capable dudes, very capable and unique talents from the Hescos race. And yet they were nothing in the eyes of that mighty race.
Sometimes, growing strong, being the top of the races in the universe, wasn't something good and great for the future of the new generations.
And so I wanted to speak about this with him. And luckily for me, this dude here seemed to share the same point of view with me.
[But what?]
"Leaving such talents to rot, to lose hope and lose their way is something awful, a big loss if you asked my opinion about it."
[No one asked for your opinion here, kid!]
"I'm just giving away my opinion for free then," I laughed.
[What do you want? Tell me directly!]
"A recruitment chance!"
[What does even that mean?]
"After all this, my kingdom will be firmly established. And as I got lots of lands, lots of forces, I need lots of talents to nourish and support."
[You can find them yourself. Why include me here? Damn! How come speaking about one point turns all the way around like this?]
"That's because we are speaking about the hope of our universe, right? And without our kids, we have no hope at all!"
[We got the twenty races!]
"They aren't enough! Not even close enough!"
[Don't speak nonsense! These races are mighty and scary! You just experienced how strong and mighty that god race is! You also saw how the angels are formidable and scary, right? Not to mention the jumpers…]
"Don't give me any bullshit about those cowards! Mighty race? The jumpers?!! Come on! If it's up to me, then I'll turn them into the most pathetic race in the entire universe."
[It's just your trauma from that dude with the mask next to you. Don't let your emotions get into your mind, change your judgement!]
"I'm not! Didn't you see how annoyingly peaceful these dudes were living? Didn't you see how their ancestors made sure that no one would ever come and help in rescuing them?"
[This… This was just to preserve their offsprings and future generations from harm]
"No! You are the one who is getting his emotions into his mind and affects his judgement! These dudes… They don't deserve any kind of special treatment at all! And hell no, they aren't any mighty or formidable, and don't hold any hope for our universe."
[That's just your opinion, and thanks god you're not the one holding the hammer here]
"Neither do you," I paused, putting a serious look on my face. "Tell me, Mr. Big Shot, do you find it a little funny and bitter?"
[Find what?]
"You, all of you, the system and everything else in the universe," I paused, trying to organise my thoughts, select my words quite properly, "do you not find it a bit weird that you hold such power, and still you hold nothing in the end? Advisor? That's the role you are proud of? Satisfied with? Come on! Without the system, without all of your contributions and effort, how can things end up being good for everyone else? Huh? Tell me, what would happen if you decided one day to go offline, shut off the system, and leave this entire universe on its own? What will happen?"
[We won't do any of this! And damn! Why are we even talking about such things again?]
"We are talking about the hope our universe has, and for a start, it's all starting with you, all of you, the system and its higher ups!"
[I…]
"Just listen to my opinion and decide for yourself later on if you'll follow my advice or just call me a crazy and delusional human kid," I took in a deep breath, organised my thoughts a bit more before adding:
"The universe can't go on like this without a leader leading it. I won't speak about the various big races out there. All of them are self focused, only caring about getting more benefits or keeping themselves on their high thrones. I'm speaking about true leaders, those who will shoulder anything and everything on their own, take the big benefits of the universe above anything else, even their own benefits, and see them through."
[We have the council of all the big races in the universe…]
"Don't give me this bullshit! Democracy? It's for peaceful times and weak fools! We need strong and capable leaders, one who will lead us forcibly towards the front. And sir, you and others at your place, can act as these leaders."
[Don't throw us in hot waters and think we'll accept this! This isn't our turf! Not our role!]
"You are wrong! Again, what will happen to all of us without the system? Without your help and intervention? Come on! Without you, there would have never been a single force here to shine or even call themselves strong! If not for you, none of this will be possible. Speaking about hope? Without proper leadership, ones who truly hold the real power and can force the entire ship of the universe to sail in the right direction, there is no hope at all! No matter how many formidable races we saved, no matter how many formidable races we got, we will still fail and lose in the end! Without generals, no army, no matter how big and huge in size it is, can win a war against any foe, no matter how small this enemy is!"
