The Azure Longsword

Chapter 683: Slowdown plan

Views:

Nora and Medea found Eleanor and repeated what they had said before, and the blonde knight immediately became excited.

"Yes, that's right!" When it comes to "saving the people", Eleanor's sense of justice immediately explodes, "Someone should go to the Iberian Peninsula and rescue those innocent people from the butcher's knife of the undead!"

"So let's go talk to Ask about this?" Medea took the opportunity to make an invitation.

"Let's go..." Eleanor was about to leave, but suddenly hesitated.

Medea:

"Wait." Eleanor waved her hand and said seriously, "I don't think we should go to Ask."

"Why?" Nora asked with a smile.

"First of all, Ask must have his own considerations," Eleanor said seriously. "It's not just based on simple and straightforward subjective ideas like 'the people of the Iberian Peninsula are pitiful, we should save them', but more on objective factors like 'can we do it' and 'to what extent can we do it' to consider the feasibility of things."

"Secondly, if we go together like this, he will inevitably feel the pressure of 'majority dissent', and such pressure will in turn interfere with his original judgment... So we should not do this."

Ah... Medea was completely speechless. She didn't expect that Nora, who was originally difficult to deal with, would be so easy to talk to, and Eleanor, who was supposed to be righteous and brainless, suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person. This... I was totally unprepared!

But she was also good at responding to situations on the spot, and said with a smile:

"But as the leader, isn't it his duty to understand the members' thoughts?"

"Then we should go to him separately to discuss our ideas instead of going together and putting pressure on him," Eleanor replied.

"Besides." Noticing Eleanor's firm attitude, Medea was still a little unwilling and continued to persuade, "What if Ask's current decision-making tendency is itself at a wavering balance point? In other words, from an objective perspective, the risks and benefits of 'can join the war' and 'can not join the war' are roughly balanced."

"If we go to find him together, he might just agree to it. But if we go to find him separately, the pressure he brings won't reach the threshold, and he might be more inclined to be lazy and not join the battle... After all, our leader is a person who is afraid of trouble, and he has always adhered to the attitude of 'don't do it if you can avoid it', right?"

"In this way, if we don't work hard to express our wishes, we may not be able to convince him to save the Iberian people, and more innocent people will be sacrificed under the butcher's knife of the undead..."

She stopped at the right moment here, because the succubus, who was good at observing people's expressions, had already discovered that Eleanor was not aroused by her description.

To be precise, Eleanor's eyes were still shining with warm emotions of kindness, justice, and compassion, but she was not as easily controlled by this altruistic and selfless instinct as before - she was still trying seriously to think about how to analyze and solve the problem described by Medea.
