Aglaea shook her head and said:
"That's not the case. Those participating in the vote in Athens are from all walks of life—bakers, tailors, playwrights; and from all strata—commoners, nobles, demigods. Those who are educated or have military experience are better off, but some haven't even been out to sea a few times. Expecting them to understand the dangers of naval battles and the priorities on the battlefield is fundamentally impossible. I'm afraid the only thing they know when voting is that many Athenians have died, and someone needs to be held responsible, serving as the outlet for the grieving families' anger."
"So, this is not a trial of fairness and justice, but rather the tyranny of collective outrage."
After saying that, Luo En let out a snort of laughter:
"If this is the democracy that Athenians are so proud of, then it should be swept into the dustbin of history."
