"Professional... dedication?"
Bloodsaw stared at Lynn as if looking at an unrecognizable monster, frowning and saying:
"You call this professional dedication?"
Lynn thought for a moment, then coughed slightly, somewhat embarrassed as he lowered his head, saying: "Sorry, teacher, but they always seemed like a group of pretty good people working hard to heal everyone. Though they do seem a bit obsessive."
Bloodsaw's mind buzzed, his gaze slightly vacant.
Pretty... good people?
He didn't know how his disciple had come up with such an outrageous idea.
But it seemed...
He really did seem quite interested in this profession...
He looked deeply at Lynn, saying: "Although I don't know where you heard about this organization, to be honest, they are indeed one of the few medical organizations in this Dark World with superb medical skills.""But I still have to advise you to give up the idea of joining that organization, because those who get recruited by that profession are never normal creatures."
Lynn pondered, seriously saying: "I'm very normal."
Bloodsaw narrowed his eyes: "Alright then, answer a few questions for me, which will help determine which camp you lean toward, then you can choose your profession based on that inclination. How about it?"
Lynn was startled, then became serious, saying: "Okay!"
Bloodsaw thought for a moment, then asked: "Good! First question, do you possess affection?"
Lynn's face showed a "?" expression.
He thought for a moment, instinctively opened his System panel, then nodded:
"Yes! Lots!"
He had three affection points rewarded by the System!
Bloodsaw said deeply: "Second question, you're a doctor who encounters a severely injured patient on the road who has nothing to do with you, but holds malice toward you. Would you help him?"
Lynn carefully considered this.
Then he thought: "If I didn't know he held malice toward me, I would definitely go help. After all, I'm a medical angel in white - I absolutely can't just watch someone die before my eyes..."
Bloodsaw said deeply: "What if during treatment, you discover he shows clear malice toward you?"
Lynn answered without hesitation, seriously: "First cure him, then persuade him to be good. If he won't be good, I'll kill him."
Bloodsaw: "..."
Bloodsaw wiped cold sweat from his forehead, thought for a moment, then went to the Backyard, retrieved a thick psychology book and a pair of reading glasses from his library, saying:
"Alright then, third question: you're a doctor with a patient facing a major problem. You have the ability to cure him, but the treatment process will cause him extreme pain, possibly even causing his death. How would you choose?"
Lynn heard this and carefully thought for a while.
"Does he want to live?"
Bloodsaw nodded: "Yes!"
"Did he hire me to cure him?"
Bloodsaw paused: "Yes."
Lynn then looked up, giving his answer with a smile: "Simple. Since his purpose in hiring me is to save his life, I'll definitely spare no effort to achieve that goal. As for the process... I don't think the process is very important!"
Bloodsaw said hesitantly: "What if he dies midway due to the extreme pain during the process?"
Lynn said seriously: "Necromancy spells, suturing techniques, mechanical modification, flesh and blood modification, puppet transformation, death magic, curses - there's always a way to resurrect him."
Bloodsaw said in astonishment: "Then... what if he can't be resurrected..."
Lynn deeply furrowed his brows, thinking for a long time: "Do you want the truth or a lie..."
Bloodsaw said hesitantly: "The truth, your most genuine inner thoughts."
Lynn frowned tightly, hesitating for a long time: "First, I would never let this situation happen. But if it really did happen, I would definitely blame myself, feel remorseful. But since the employment relationship still exists..."
He looked up, adjusted his Monocle, the lens reflecting faint light.
His expression appeared unusually calm.
He smiled: "I would do everything possible to preserve his body until I can resurrect him. I couldn't just give up casually because of objective or subjective reasons."
Bloodsaw stared at his disciple in shock, unable to speak for a moment.
Because if this really was his genuine thought...
This guy...
Might become even more terrifying than those chaotic evil types in the future.
Because he's obsessive enough.
Because if you rephrased this question about killing people instead, it would feel genuinely chilling from the bottom of your heart.
Bloodsaw took a deep breath, saying seriously:
"Let's pause this topic. Fourth question: suppose your closest person makes a mistake that violates the law. What would you do?"
Lynn chuckled: "Of course I'd stand by my closest person's side."
Bloodsaw said deeply: "Why?"
Lynn said seriously: "The law is worthless."
"..."
"What if he was indiscriminately killing innocent people?"
"In which world?"
"Your world."
Lynn thought about it, pondering: "I don't like indiscriminate killing of innocents, but if his explanation convinces me, I would consider standing by his side. But if he's just doing it for fun, then I would probably kill him."
"What about in the Dark World?"
Lynn said puzzled: "Are there innocent masses in the Dark World?"
"..."
Bloodsaw took a deep breath, saying deeply: "Final question: if I ordered you to kill someone you didn't want to kill, would you do it?"
Lynn was startled: "Teacher, would you give me such an order?"
Bloodsaw slapped his thighs angrily, exasperated: "Hypothetical! I said it's hypothetical!"
Lynn thought about it: "This question is hard to answer because I don't know who you'd want me to kill."
"What if it was your lover or parents?"
Lynn didn't even think, looked up, showing his white teeth, saying seriously:
"I'd kill you first."
"..."
Smack—
A huge knock on the head.
A bump appeared on Lynn's head, steaming faintly.
...
A few minutes later.
Lynn sat puzzled cross-legged before Bloodsaw: "Teacher, have you tested which camp I belong to? Is it lawful good? The particularly kind type?"
Bloodsaw closed his eyes, took a deep breath.
Bullshit!
This guy has nothing to do with lawful good!
From how he unhesitatingly spoke of disregarding the law and killing his own teacher, he doesn't fit into the entire lawful camp at all.
Because if you replaced me with some organization he joined that actually ordered him to do things he didn't like, he'd probably destroy that organization too!
But at the same time.
He couldn't be chaotic evil either.
Because this guy clearly has his own set of morals and values, completely different from those maniacs who only know killing.
Bloodsaw looked up, saying seriously: "What do you think is the essence of being a doctor?"
Lynn thought about it, then said seriously: "Healing the wounded and rescuing the dying, letting good people live happily, letting bad people die pleasantly, making sure everyone no longer suffers from illness and injury."
Bloodsaw said hesitantly: "What do you think happiness is?"
Lynn said seriously: "Not being sick is happiness."
"..."
Bloodsaw broke out in a sweat.
This...
Such low standards?
Why is this guy's worldview so similar to the philosophy of those Night Doctor guys!
This won't do!
That profession really isn't that kind of proper profession!
Lynn said hopefully: "Teacher, so which camp do I belong to?"
Bloodsaw carefully thought about it, finally barely determining the answer, saying seriously:
"If your answers to my questions were truly your heartfelt thoughts, then we can roughly determine that your current views lean more toward..."
"【Chaotic Good】."
