Chapter 1968 Convincing The Three Experts (2)

"So, there are four big reasons why I want to spread the knowledge. First, the monsters might have kept it a big secret. But they are more generous in giving knowledge than we do.
"Of course, you can say that monsters don't have the wisdom to understand it while even normal humans can do it. However, don't forget that even with some understanding, you can't get an Order.
"You should know that there are a few requirements to get an Order, right? To put it simply, it's to live by the rules we set. Someone won't get a Forest Order, if he is destroying the Forest. Someone won't get a Sea Order if they never see the sea, let alone live in it.
"That's why even though some knowledge will be spread, it's impossible for them to get the Order. They have to reach a certain threshold and live by the rules. Only at that time will they be considered by the world.
"Yes. The world shall decide whether they are appropriate to get the power or not. This is the first reason."
Theo stopped for a moment, waiting for a question.
"Still, I'm a bit skeptical of allowing normal humans to learn it. I mean, there will be a lot of research going around it. Humans are never satisfied, so they might be able to get it without the world's recognition." The Great Mage explained his concern.
Theo smiled and raised two fingers. "That's the second reason. Yes, it allows them to understand it. And there might be a time when humans can get it without the world's recognition. I mean, humans will keep evolving, so the requirement might change in the future or humanity will find a way around it.
"But you still have to know this. What we know right now might not be relevant in the future. As you already know from the generations that were born after the apocalypse. All of them immediately gain the talent from their respective parents.
"For example, a child from a pair of Mythical Rank Experts will most likely have more Magic Power than a child from an ordinary family. In other words, the children already have a substantial amount of Magic Power and have no ability to increase it.
"Unlike us, who cultivate our power by killing monsters. They have to cultivate their power through their understanding.
"In other words, the future children might be crushed under the prejudice of their talents. That's not an equal chance, right? Even the people from our generation who don't have the God Level Blessing still have the chance to become a Mythical Rank Expert and even attain Order and Authority.
"So, to balance the upcoming crisis, I'm planning to let some of the knowledge spread. This way, the children, who might not have a huge amount of Magic Power and talent, might be able to go beyond their rank by comprehending the Order.
"Of course, they might not be able to comprehend the Order, but they might find a new way to develop their ability. The future is still unknown, so we can only let them develop themselves. I think you get the idea."
The three experts looked down, contemplating. They somehow agreed to Theo's concern about future development. Even they had created their own abilities through their understanding, allowing them to defeat others with those new abilities.
Although it might not be enough to bypass the talent gap, it could shrink the gap. And the future generations will surely have a different system. So, it was clear that they had to prepare for it.
"But the question is how much knowledge can we spread?" The Great Mage said while frowning. "And I think the answer will be in your explanation about the materials you're going to teach."
"Yes. I'm going to give you the other two reasons before that." Theo nodded.
"To be honest, I'm already convinced by just these two reasons. But I don't think it'll hurt to listen to the other two…" The Great Mage sighed, realizing that Theo saw not only the current problem but the future one.
Even the other two experts understood the Great Mage and thought these two were enough to spread the knowledge. Of course, they had to be concerned about how much knowledge they could give to the public.
"I have mentioned the third reason earlier. The changing world might cause knowledge to be irrelevant. So, we can't look pessimistic about the spread of this knowledge since it might be impossible for the next generation to acquire it.
"Last but not least, the number of people who have got their Orders and Authorities has been reduced significantly. You should have heard a lot of them dying after the apocalypse. So, there is a need to increase it again. After all, when we kill King Class Monsters or even World Class Monsters, they will be able to create a new one soon.
"By giving this opportunity to other people, we can increase the number again. This will create a balance between us and the monsters. As you can see right now, the bigger we expand our domain, the higher the number we need to protect it. Of course, I don't have the ambition to reconquer the world, so I'm just waiting for the balance to be created."
"…" The three experts looked at each other, nodding their heads. It seemed that Theo truly had a solid reason for his action.
"As for the materials I'm planning to share, I'm just going to talk about the general requirement, not directly of course. I'm planning to teach them how to control their power better, as it is the secret to getting this power.
"I mean, I'm not lying. It's one of the requirements. As for living by their own rules, I think they have set that up since they became an adult. So, if they can continue living the way they do, they might be able to get the acknowledgment. What do you think?"
