"Also, there is no such thing as pure-hearted, perfect knights like him who are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of their kingdom or country. That's an idealistic image created by writers and artists who live in fantasies." Asher spat out those words with disgust. "What matters is the actual outcome of the actions he takes, whether they help people or harm them. There are many people who act righteous and fight against those in power to help the weak, but at the same time, they don't care about the consequences of their actions and end up hurting innocent people who happen to get caught up in their crusade. For example, there was a man who wanted to save the commoners from the corrupt nobles that ruled over them. In order to do that, he assassinated all of them in righteous indignation. But due to that assassination, a war broke out, killing countless innocents and destroying entire villages and towns. And in the end, it didn't achieve anything significant at all; instead, everything just ended up even worse than it was before. So, just because he wanted to be a hero doesn't mean he knows what he's doing!"
