Executioner (2)

Chapter 117

(Unedited)

…

If someone asks me before all this happened to my life, will I be able to take a life? I would of course say no. There is no way in the world would I feel at ease in taking another's life. But of course, there are times in my life that I have seen animals being butchered and killed and it was not a pleasant experience.

Hearing those animals cry and seeing life ebbing away from their eyes made me feel uncomfortable at that time.

But, I rationalized that they are just animals. They are different from humans. I could not empathize with their plight, unlike other humans.

So I thought.

However, after undergoing that traumatic experience I have while dying in the hands of those people and seeing their dreadful faces, it made me think that some people do not deserve my empathy. Some people will need to be erased in this world, to prevent the innocent from suffering.
