Hiro then looked towards the high-karma people and asked. "It's not just me, right? This woman is insane? You guys think so too right?" numerous people nodded their heads in fear of disagreeing with the butcher.
Fregit then complained while pouting. "My lord, you are an idiot for thinking you would get a real answer from these people. They are all scared shitless of your recent actions! Anyway, that is beside the point, hire me! That's what's important!"
The butcher then rubbed his chin while deciding. "Fine, kill these people. Kill them all and you are hired." The man's words sounded like an execution sentence to most of the ones present. While they could resist Fregit, it's not like they could escape anyway.
Close to two-thousand people originally inhabited the hall, and currently, only less than fifty still breathe. One of the surviving people, a woman with an attractive face rebuked Hiro in contempt. "You are inhuman and heartless how could you just up and decide to massacre thousands of people? Have you no mercy?!"
Hiro then approached and picked up the girl by her neck, and raised her up. "I answer to no one bitch, these fuckers hurt my daughter and I enacted vengeance. That is all, there is no moral high ground here. I kill because I am strong. If I was weak then I would be the one to be killed instead."
The woman struggled to move as her neck got caught in a vice. Unwillingly to stand down, she continued to fight with her words. "You say that but how many of the ones you killed had families?! How many of their people would lose their parents, husbands, wives, and children all because of your selfish reasons!"

"Assassination, prostitution, drugs, arms dealing how many children lost their families all because these fuckers wanted more money? You forget them yet only remember the families of the rich? Do not lecture me when you rub elbows with scum bitch!"
Hiro then threw the woman back to the ground. People who appeared to be related to her caught her before she slammed her back on the ground. With a furious voice, the butcher bellowed. "I had the same question for all of you fucks! Why do you still associate with these scum if you all have some sense of morality in you?"
The group, even the woman failed to provide a response, while the usual answer would be "they are a lesser evil', 'they get me what I want', 'I do this to survive' or even as simple as 'I do it for money'.
Everyone knew that they were just as guilty as the ones that died. Most people allowed evil to happen around them so long as their worlds remain to be unaffected. Only the ones who led good lives could spare the effort debated morality, most just tried to survive.
"See? Unlike you all I actually did something about it. After today their evil will end here." Reasoned the butcher.
One of the men reasoned. "Are you that naïve? For everyone one you put down another will rise to fill the void. Trying to fight corruption and the world's malice is an impossible task!"
"Is that what you tell yourself at night to sleep better?" Hiro's remark had the man clammed up in shame. The weak and the lowly normally played the victim card. "I am like this because its the world's fault!", "If I had better resources it would be better!", "If only I was born rich things would be different." Yet no matter what one told himself the ugly truth hiding remained for all to see.
Where you are is a reflection of who you are. When people choose to blame others for their misfortunes they stop thinking. They cease growing and led abject lives. Only the strong know they cannot expect anyone else to dig them out aside from themselves.
Hiro who slowly learned how heavy the shoulders of the strong are made realizations one after another. It is easy to talk a big game, but acting on it required a fortitude worlds apart from the norm. Knowing that debating such topics would be useless, the reincarnator then spoke in a voice full of certainty.
"You all saw the darkness coming right? The [Forsaken]? In less than a decade they will arrive to kill us all. I for one do not intend to lie down and die. I will get stronger and fight them. The fuckers here will make things worse for the future so I killed them.
"My goal is to survive with my wives and daughter, the odds I would clash with these scum in the future is high. I will be amassing a force to fight the coming storm. Unlike you all, I know what I want, and I will sacrifice anyone and everyone to get it. I know I am far from normal, I am a monster and never claimed otherwise."
The brave woman from before again argued with Hiro as she stood up. "You are an evil bastard, and I pity the women who married you! You must have raped them or something? Who would ever want someone like you?"
Suddenly Hiro appeared beside the woman and strangled her neck while raising her up. "It is only because of my wives that I even decided to spare any of you. Do not test me, woman. Adding another body to the corpses around us is but a trifling matter to me."

A female voice echoed during the intense moment, and Hiro felt the tendons and muscles on the arm he used to strangle the woman all get severed. With surgical precision, his entire arm lost the power to move due to the human anatomy. The girl who almost got killed dropped to the ground and coughed violently as her body drew in the oxygen.
Hiro then felt enraged and looked at the one who attacked him. Fregit lost the bumbling persona from earlier and now had a countenance as sharp as a sword. "Lord Sabachthani, calm down. If your wives are the reason you spared them, you are disgracing their will if you decided to kill one you already choose to save."
After an intense stare-down, Hiro nodded as his arm healed back to full health. "You are right, thank you." Contrary to what the people around them thought, the butcher didn't straight up murder his nanny but thanked her instead.
The man then faced the remaining survivors, all of them had various injuries from trying to fulfill their assignments as defenders. Not that it matters as most of the aggressors were all dead.
"I spared you all due to you guys having a Ledger rating of above 50%, which essentially means by Shani's law you are all good people.
"Let me reintroduce myself I am Sabachthani, the Wolfen butcher. And the leader of the organization [Redeemed]. I come to fight against the [Forsaken]. My group and I will continue to work in order to strengthen the empires.
"If you act in a manner worthy of our cause, you will not be harmed. However, if you do not, you are our enemy; And like a surgeon, I will remove and cut off all the rotting flesh on my patient. "
