Russell can understand the underlying meaning of the teacher's words.
The only advantage in their world is that no one receives special treatment; at most, someone might be a bit luckier.
But that luck only makes their journey a bit smoother, in a world where circumstances are difficult, it merely offers a glimmer of hope.
Wanting to claim supremacy or reach any pinnacle is a mere dream.
Living relies solely on one's own struggle... having better talents makes the journey a bit easier, but hoping to not strive is hopeless.
Even those living seemingly good lives in Sia Tower are actually struggling on a different battlefield.
But this so-called fairness also results in another outcome... until the last moment, the World Will is unaware that its existence is in peril.
When it realizes it is close to being shattered, that's when it's on the brink of complete dormancy.
Days like today only suggest that their world is not meant to perish.
