Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you! Chapter 911 261: The True Essence of the Magic Monarch, The

Agatha, I'm furious, truly furious.

When Holy Hall Assessnt was held by the Divine Briania, my companions from the Tribunal and I were out eradicating evil. By rights, according to the teachings of your Earth Mother Goddess Church and your Agatha's character, you should have directly stopped phiel's excessive actions during the Holy Hall Assessnt.

Agatha, honestly speaking, you've disappointed . Perhaps I should reassess you; you're not a qualified partner of justice!"

Upon hearing Judge Mistro say this, a trace of helplessness flashed in Agatha's eyes, as she said:

"Mistro, it's exactly because of your uncompromising approach that even when you are enacting justice, you are feared by so many civilians.

My ally, how to act is rely a ans to achieve a satisfactory result, rather than a necessity. If you had understood this back then, you wouldn't have failed in your bid against phiel for the papacy.

Absolute justice can sotis be daunting, don't forget why the Divine Favor of your Dawn Lord Church chose to leave back then."

"Are you teaching how to do things?"

Seemingly reminded of sothing that displeased him, Judge Mistro almost jumped with anger.

"I know you're eager, but hold on for a mont."

Agatha the Pontiff sighed and said, "Mistro, unjust ans cannot yield the blossom of justice. This principle should be clear to you."

Mistro scoffed, saying:

"When unjust ans have beco the sole thod to achieve result justice, do you think I should use them?"

Agatha's gaze at her old friend was complex.

This is why the Heretic Tribunal sotis inspires both respect and fear.

Generally speaking, executing procedural justice can sotis delay matters that should be swiftly resolved due to issues with the process.

Sotis, for efficiency, authorities might temporarily grant so execution power to grassroots priests who ordinarily do not have such authority, which not only fails to expedite operations but has adverse effects.

So grassroots priests, who have never wielded authority related to church institutions, might misuse that temporary power and act recklessly.

However... Despite procedural justice having its various flaws, it still serves as a protective frawork for most people because rules might err, but consequences without rules are far worse.

However, this very principle is hard to implent with the Heretic Tribunal.

Sure, those who enter the Heretic Tribunal are often intolerant of evil, and in a world with gods, the core standard for entry into the Heretic Tribunal is the determination to die practicing God's teachings.

But even using this thod, while it generally ensures that most of the Dawn Lord's Heretic Tribunal mbers have good nature, their thods are still fear-inducing and even repulsive.

As Judge Mistro said, when unjust ans have beco the sole thod to achieve result justice, they will rcilessly strike.

Suppose Mistro and his subordinates caught a Shirek believer intending to overthrow the Kingdom by deceit. They also know that this Shirek believer has planted a tir-triggered explosive scroll in the city, which will cause considerable casualties once it explodes.

With each passing minute, if the Shirek believer remains defiant, what would Judge Mistro and the other mbers of the Heretic Tribunal do?

The answer is, to save the majority, they would rcilessly torture the Shirek believer, even resorting to more unjust actions, such as...

Directly torturing the Shirek believer's parents and wife.

Adhering to the belief of "no punishnt without grace," these mbers can indeed go mad in extre situations.

The Pontiff Agatha, very aware of these people's danger, is actually reluctant to cooperate with them. Their beliefs are more extre and do not align with the teachings of Shantia.

Although it seems gratifying to deal with evildoers with more vicious thods, giving a feeling of revenge, with als tasting better that day.

Yet Pontiff Agatha is well aware that such actions can lead to extre issues.

The most typical issue is "information bias."

Let's reverse the example of the Shirek believer.

Suppose the Heretic Tribunal, during their investigation, due to unreliable sources or even traitors, fras a regular citizen as a Shirek believer plotting chaos in the shadows.

And the Heretic Tribunal, because of various reasons, cannot verify the accuracy of this information.

Then, to carry out "the majority's justice," they would unhesitatingly arrest that citizen suspected of being a Shirek believer and torture them to find the nonexistent "explosive scroll."
