Kill the Sun

Earth, thousands of years after the apocalypse. Countless technologies and advances had been lost to time as the Specters, horrifying beings with terrifying powers, arrived and destroyed the world. Over the coming thousands of years, humanity had built itself up but always died again. Nobody remembers the past. Nobody remembers what humanity had once accomplished. Now, everyone is living in a world where the Specters reign supreme. ----- A boy with amnesia woke up in the middle of the Dregs, the worst part of Crimson Fungus City. The boy grows up and manages to become strong enough to pass an exam for one of the most prestigious jobs in existence, a Zephyx Extractor, someone that can harvest the powers of Specters. Sadly, he had already gained a power from a Specter in the past, which made him ineligible for the position. But then, a mysterious man visits him. And his luck finally turns around.

Chapter 71 – Silent Work

Nick explained what he had been thinking about to Wyntor, who just looked at Nick with a skeptical expression.

 

"So, you're actually serious?" Wyntor asked. "You actually want to improve the lives of the people of the Dregs?"

 

Nick nodded without hesitation.

 

"Why?" Wyntor asked. "They've never done anything for you. From what I've heard, all of them didn't care about you, and many of them even wanted to steal your things. Why would you want to sacrifice the stuff you earned to help people like them?"

 

"It's the system, not the individual person," Nick said. "If there were no taxes, the number of violent crimes would drop significantly. If the people had access to better food, they wouldn't need to fight others for valuable nutrients."

 

"Yes, there are many people that are unnecessarily cruel and extremely selfish. Naturally, these people don't deserve to get a better life."
