In this world, power is unbalanced.
In a world where supernatural forces exist, ordinary people simply have no power to resist the strong.
Even Aaron could easily think of a hundred ways to prevent marches and riots - such as setting up large rituals in slums, constantly reinforcing residents' sense of order and obedience so that they wouldn't dare to violate imperial law even if they starved to death at home!
From a mysticism point of view, this is entirely possible.
But the marches still happened, and although they were suppressed effectively, each time they occurred, they would stimulate the rest of the people, leaving scars in their hearts.
Even if those wounds healed, scars would remain, slowly corroding the foundation of the empire's rule.
"I... I don't know, isn't this normal? When you can't survive anymore, you have to find another way to live..."
Louis scratched his head, completely unsure what Aaron was talking about.
