While I'm sure all politically correct fanatics around are impatiently awaiting for the racist evil autocratic country to taste shit, and be replaced by "democracy" or something... the fact is Lumen's religion is not entirely wrong.

This world's setting could verry well be kind of "inside" of a "video game", a virtual reality possibly created by humans. It is something human technology will be able to do if our computers continue to evolve, in a not so distant future, probably less than a century.

Hence, if it has been created by Homo Sapiens (which is the case... since this novel's author IS an Homo Sapiens) Lumen's Religion claiming (enhanced) Humans and Human Supremacy are innately superiors is actually not devoid of truth.

Among all species (or beings) we have seen currently, only the elves and humans could possily achieve this. The gods... ? They could be simply part of this world mechanisms, natural laws and structures (Rou explaning things by saying "oh well.. it's fantasy so it's logical" would inflict high fever upon Tolkien's brain y merely hearing it).

The goblin's Lord and Vampire evolutions, for exemple, would probably not be able to construct entire artificial worlds. Not only because they are not smart enough, but because they are too strong, and therefore are not trying to compensate their weaknesses by the use of tools... unlike IRL Homo Sapiens. It is also a fact that in Nature (the real one, not this setting's Nature), complex, sophisticate beings, take more time to develop and evolve from embryo to adult. Only OP beings or artificially created beings such as chimera-ants from Hunter x Hunter (or Terra Formars) develop as fast as inferior creatures such as insects with ultra-short lifespan or small animals, while possessing superior intelligence or human-like intelligence.

And even if Lumen's religion is entirely untrue (which is unlikely... sicne pretty much all religions or myths), the fact is they have more than 20 Heroes, including Legendary Heroes. Which can induce them in he erroneous belief they are somehow blessed by Heaven. Destroying a country because it's population is indoctrinated from childhood to believe in bullshit is pretty cruel. If our own world abided by such criterias, I don't know how many of those 200 or so countries would be left standing (some places, like, say... the Korean peninsula... would probably be utterly anihilated... :p ). ahahah

And that's without taking into account stuff like the philosophical theory according to which people create the world by seeing it (which is kinda what Rou is doing or at least it looks like it while reading this novel, ain't it ?).
