Wizard of All Souls

Under the bloody setting sun.

Harvey bit his lips tightly, staring at Will with despair, his face extremely pale.

Father Will has always been the pride of his heart.

He is regarded as a guiding light on the road of life.

It is the source of his belief.

But was betrayed.

In the ears, it sounded like a whisper from hell.

Below him is endless darkness.

He seemed to see countless ferocious ghosts pulling his feet towards hell.

His body and mind were sinking into the darkness bit by bit.

Originally, in his eyes, his father was a saint who radiated an undisguised holiness from the inside out even though he wore a black robe all the year round.

Now, it feels so far away from him.

Like an evil devil standing in the boundless darkness, the flesh-colored wings behind it are looming.

...

Will stared at Harvey, he knew that Harvey's spirit had been severely hit and was on the verge of collapse.

He had already expected Harvey's performance.

It's just that when the speculation turned into reality, the heart was still hit.

"Even me as a father, don't you believe it?"

"In this situation, how do you want me to believe you?"

"It's all about justice."

"Hehe, for the sake of gaining prestige? So arrest and punish those who oppose you, those who do not support you, and those who dislike you?"

"Do you remember the question you asked me before?" Will asked.

"what is the problem?"

"When I ordered you to sweep up the bandits and bandits entrenched in Doria province, didn't you wonder and quarrel with me, why did you arrest them alive, why didn't you kill those people?"

"Those people add up to a thousand at most."

"You are just one of the main forces."

"Three thousand people can't be more."

There are also many kinds of bandits and robbers, and it is impossible to kill all of them as long as they are one of them.

So 3,000 people is already a lot.

The problem is that the number of people here is obviously far more than 3,000.

After hearing Harvey's words, Will was not anxious.

Instead, he continued to speak slowly: "In your eyes, are robbers and bandits the only bad people? Are they the only ones who deserve to die? Those village tyrants who bully men and women, ruin other people's families, and have blood on their hands Woolen cloth?"

"What about the dynamic groups that roam the streets of town?"

"Where are those dog legs who bully others?"

"Also, have you heard of treating symptoms and root causes?"

"In the past three years, you should have been exposed to the dark side of many nobles, right? Most of the robbers and bandits were trained by them, or they were pretended by members of their family."

"For the culprit."

"For those nobles who have committed countless unforgivable crimes, should they be killed?"

"This, this, this..." Harvey was speechless for a while.

His father did have a good point.

If calculated in this way, there are more than 10,000 people waiting to be executed on the cross, which is reasonable.

Even if you know the truth.

I understand that he misunderstood his father just now.

But the inner discomfort still cannot be eliminated.

The pleasure I felt in my heart when I killed evil people before, I can't feel it at all now.

"W-Is this too much?" Harvey whispered.

"many?"

Will sneered.

Only 11,756 people are too many?

The darkness of this world is beyond imagination.

If the justice in his heart is used as a judgment, it is right to kill 99.9% of the people in Doria Province.

After all, he looks like an honest and hard-working farmer during the day.

It is normal in this world to intercept passers-by and kill people from other villages at night. Which village has never done it?

So he lowered his standards.

He decided to use the much more lenient laws of the feudal empire Cairo as the standard of conviction.

Even so, there are too many damn people.

The laws of the Cairo Empire clearly stated that human trafficking was not allowed, slavery was not allowed, and killing at will was not allowed—even if the other party was a slave.

What about reality?

Various taxes are stipulated in the law, and the obligations of each noble are stipulated.

Then what?

The law stipulates that soldiers are not privately raised.

hehe.

For most nobles.

What is the law?

What is a king?

In one's own territory, even the lowest rank of knighthood would be life and death for the people.

obligation?

what is that?

You say I broke the law?

"The rule that works for me is unused toilet paper."

"For regulations that are useless or even harmful, it's the used paper in toilet drains."

According to the laws of the Cairo Empire, almost 90% of the nobles in the province of Doria should be killed.

Obviously, this cannot be done.

With the nobility gone, how to manage the territory is a problem.

The more important question is-

"Once I do this, the Cairo Empire will not tolerate me, nor will this world tolerate me."

"Right now I'm too weak."

"The consequence of being an enemy of the world is failure."

"Hey, when will I have enough power to kill all the villains in the world and all the alien races in the world."

In life, you always need to learn to compromise.

For the nobles who sincerely repented and were willing to support his actions, he decided to give them a chance to reform.

Although he has been so merciful, there are still a small number of people who are unwilling to admit their mistakes.

They also clamored, "Do you know who I am?" "Do you still dare to kill me?" "The royal family will not ignore you if you do this." "You are asking for your own death."

It seems that he is usually arrogant.

Don't agree with him.

Don't even want to abide by the laws of the kingdom?

no way.

Will had to enforce the law impartially and arrested them all.

"Not even through the back door."

"How can there be such a stupid person in the world?"

"For the wicked, my tolerance and kindness are very rare."

But fewer people resisted than expected.

Among the more than 10,000 people executed today, there are only 47 nobles who actually have titles.

Two of the viscounts.

Thirteen barons.

And the remaining twenty-two are knights.

...

In Will's opinion.

Only a mere 10,000 people were arrested. How tolerant they are. It is the result of violating conscience and a compromise of bowing to evil.

But in the eyes of others, it is not the same thing at all.

Apparently Harvey was one of the others.

Finding that Harvey obviously disagreed with his approach, Will had no choice but to continue to explain.

Who made Harvey his son?

Let Harvey come here today, let Harvey stand on the execution platform, and stand with him, isn't it just to take this opportunity to educate Harvey?

"When there is judgment on those who have committed mortal sins."

"Kill one."

"I feel refreshed from the bottom of my heart."

"Kill ten."

"I began to feel dissatisfied in my heart, and felt that there are still many bad people in this world."

"Kill a hundred."

"I feel that I have done a great deed that can be praised by the world."

"Kill a thousand."

"At this time, some people began to doubt themselves, would they kill a good person by mistake? Some people in it actually didn't deserve to die? Did they hit harder?"

"When killing 10,000 people."

"Many people's three views have begun to waver. Maybe they are right? I am the one with brain problems? I am the one who kills people and is the source of evil?"
