Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 834

Today's elementary school students are different from those in the past. Some of them even had mobile phones and use Messenger to communicate. They formed group chats as well.

When Lilly asked about Alban, Drake took a picture. Alban was aware of being photographed, but he showed no fear of being investigated.

Earlier in the group chat, Drake asked about Alban's identity. He briefly explained, "Alban is 12 years old and in the sixth grade. He is an orphan living with his sister."

Lilly continued, "Alban said that he met Ivan when he was at Ghost Abyss. They were being pursued by ghosts, and when they were trying to escape, Alban kicked Ivan down..."

Josh nodded, saying, "We asked him very clearly. He said it was the only chance of survival, and only one of them could survive. Alban claimed that kicking Ivan down would give him time to escape since there was only one chance to survive, and he was afraid Ivan would kill Alban if he caught up."

Lilly immediately brought up the dilemma in her heart, asking her father, "Daddy, was he right for doing so?"

Alban argued that he did what was necessary to survive, but Lilly accused him of harming Ivan and acting selfishly.

Alban insisted that everyone was looking at things from a different perspective and that no one had the right to judge his actions.

Lilly always felt that something was wrong, but she could not pinpoint exactly what it was.

Blake's expression turned stern as he analyzed the situation, stating, "Regardless of the point of view, it is understandable to prioritize one's own life."

"However, it is wrong to sacrifice others to buy time for oneself to survive."

"If you have the capability, you should rely on your abilities to survive, rather than exchanging someone else's life for a few extra seconds. What's the difference between that and causing harm to others?"

"He also tried to justify his actions by saying that the same would have happened if it were Ivan... He was twisting the concept by playing with opposites."

It does sound grandiose...

In other words, he didn't consider it as twisting the concept at all.

He was straightforward about it because he genuinely believed so.

It was also possible that being a 12-year-old child, he wanted to survive, and his conscience did not allow him to admit that he acted shamelessly.

So, he found excuses to ease his conscience.

Additionally, having only one younger sister, he had a strong reason to live and would not hesitate to do anything to survive. It was normal to have such a personality and mindset.

"However, Lilly, remember this, being desperate or pitiful doesn't mean they're right."

The people and ghosts Lilly encountered along the way were often pitiful.

Pitiful people might get sympathy and forgiveness from others.

However, if she were in the underworld, sitting on the throne, and was responsible for judging numerous lives and deaths, she could not rely solely on pity to determine right from wrong.

Lilly understood, nodding and saying, "I understand now, thank you, Daddy!"

Blake playfully pinched her nose and asked, "No need to thank me! What do you plan to do now?"

Lilly pondered the question seriously and replied, "First, I'll take Grandpa home, and then I'll go to the underworld to investigate it."

She added, "I'll start from Gray Earth and find out where Ghost Abyss is."

Otherwise, if she wasted time searching where Ghost Abyss was, the King of Cities might find her before she was able to locate Ghost Abyss.

So, it was best to gather information before setting off.

She would go to Gray Earth to find information about the place.

The cats in Gray Earth were under her care.

Even though she had not officially become the true Ruler of Hell yet... it should not be a problem to keep cats, right?

Blake inquired, "How do you plan to gather information then?"

Lilly thought of the situation deeply and nodded confidently, saying, "Well, Daddy, I'm going to pet the cats!"

A smile twinkled in Blake's eyes.

He had taught her to be kind but not to be a saint.

He had taught her to follow rules but not to be rigid.

He had taught her to make decisive choices, but not at the expense of her conscience.

"Petting the cat is a good idea!" Blake expressed his approval.

In the evening, they brought Hugh back home.
