Chapter 421



There are numerous controversies about the theory of good and evil, but one fact that experts in criminal psychology agree on is that there are definitely true evil people in this world.

[Are humans inherently good or evil? There are many discussions about this question, but one fact that many criminal psychologists agree on is that, although there are differences in degree, deep down in the human psyche, each person has the nature of a destructive and aggressive beast.

] Destroying a well-made sandcastle for no reason. Tearing off the legs of all insects caught as a joke. Little children who just harass others for fun and enjoy the pain. The evil actions shown in the innocence of knowing nothing clearly showed the beast hidden inside these humans.

[However, its nature is strongly controlled and conditioned in the discipline of the family and education in society. Most of them adapt without major problems in the social system of laws and rules and the conventional wisdom of morality and etiquette. But... if that nature appears strongly and you can\'t control it, problems arise.]

Psychopaths.

Sociopath.

Those who do socially unacceptable behavior just for their own satisfaction for no reason. Through their examples, they proved that there is an evil in the world that can never be rectified.

[And they have a high probability of committing heinous crimes such as murder and arson. Not because of any resentment or interest, but just for fun and pleasure. That\'s the only way to satisfy their inner desire.]

[That\'s why they can\'t be reformed. No matter how much you restrain and suppress your urges and desires, by some small chance and at the most vulnerable moment, in the end, that nature will come out and someone will be sacrificed. As an analogy, they are like time bombs that we ca n\'t even prepare for because we don\'t know when and where they will explode.]

belongs to the case. The only way to prevent additional crimes is to isolate them from society forever and to thoroughly manage them so that no additional victims can occur. These heinous crimes cannot be eradicated. Even if a certain person is a psychopath, it is impossible to take measures such as isolating from society just because there is such a possibility.]

Experts argue that it is impossible to eradicate these atrocious crimes no matter what.

But since the birth of virtual reality, these crime rates have plummeted worldwide.

Arcadia, another world perfectly realized to the extent that it is indistinguishable from reality. And the resident NPCs living peacefully there.

[Oh come on. What brought you here today?]

[Look! Long time no see? Can I ask for an apology here?]

[I

have a favor to ask of you.....] Through those who are so lively that you can believe they are real people and have different reactions and conversations depending on the situation, those who live in reality hide their beastly nature. I was so free to satisfy those pent-up desires and impulses.

“Turn it off..... please... please save it...”

A quiet alleyway.

A young man struggling there, bleeding profusely. But Jeffrey, looking down at him, had a deep smile.

“No. Please pray for me to live a little more earnestly. uh? Can I be moved by that?”

Jeffrey whispered with a face full of pleasure as if he were really enjoying this moment. Then he grabbed the terrified victim by the chin and turned it roughly to reveal the already grayed bodies.

“I’ll give you one more chance. If you disappoint me again... you will die here on the street like those guys over there and become my faithful slave.”

Whoops.

The black magic that spreads through his gestures. And soon, a drastic change began to occur in the bodies of the two bodies that had just been killed.

“Geuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu000000.....

Decaying corpse zombies walking around.

Geoffrey\'s family suddenly changed into bizarre and hideous figures that made you feel sick just by looking at them.

He said as they began to stumble and look around as if they were constantly looking for prey.

“Are you hungry? I\'ve prepared a delicious dinner for you here, so enjoy it to your heart\'s content.”

“Hee... hee hee...”

The young man groaned as he pointed at himself and called it prey, looking at him with fear-stained eyes. But Jeffrey whispered to him as if he were playing a fun game.

“Try running away. Are these guys slower than you think? Wouldn’t it be possible to live even if you lose the use of one leg if you work hard with the determination to die?”

“Please save me. Please...”

A young man begging to be saved as if he had an intuition about death. But Jeffrey said with a smirk.

“Okay...then let’s start!”

“Geuuuuuuuuu...!”

At that moment, two zombies stumbled and slowly approached him. And a young man who struggles to escape somehow by grabbing his broken leg from the two. However, it didn\'t take long to catch him crawling, even if it was a slow-moving zombie.

“Quaaaaaaagh!”

He screams in pain as the zombie bites his neck. It was such a terrible and gruesome sight that ordinary people could not bear to see it with their own two eyes, but Jeffrey, who was looking at it, was genuinely happy and enjoying it.

“Ha.....”

An unknown NPC whose vitality has completely disappeared and turned gray. However, his efforts to live until the last moment were enough to satisfy the monster in Jeffrey\'s heart.

“This Arcadia... really...”

He shuddered with his eyes closed, relishing the feeling that the suppressed thirst in his heart was finally quenched.

“It\'s the best.....”

In reality, Jeffrey lives with the respect and recognition of society as a doctor who saves people\'s lives.

However, in this virtual arcadia, he was playing as a necromancer, committing heinous crimes and murders, and fulfilling his desires that were not allowed to him.

[A group of innocent young men were brutally murdered.]

[The bad karma has been increased.]

[The bad karma level has increased by 60.]

“Oh. Giving you 60 bad karma?”

It was purely for his own personal satisfaction, but he killed only 3 people due to his bizarre murder method, and the bad karma increased by 60. At that time, while looking at the related message, Jeffrey was happily opening the status window and checking it.

A new quest was created with meaningful messages.

[A whisper is heard calling you from the shadows of death and grief.]

[Specific conditions have been met.]

[The quest Harvest of Innocent Souls has been created.]

[Please check the related information.]

“Um... .?”

A quest that suddenly flew in without any notice. However, after confirming what was written in it, Jeffrey checked it a few times with round eyes as if he was surprised, then muttered.

“Hmm... to turn all the residents of Coil Village into undead?”

Coil Village, a small and peaceful rural village, was the first base Jeffrey left after starting Arcadia in the past.

In this village of less than 500 residents, he received a lot of help.

[Jeffrey! Thanks for helping me last time. This is... small, but rewarding.]

[Jeffrey! Isn\'t everything great today?]

[Uhm..... I don\'t usually get a lot of kobold molars... But since you\'re one, I\'ll buy them for you at a particularly reasonable price.]

Until I became a necromancer, I built a lot of foundations there and got along well with the villagers. A friend of Jeffrey.

A heinous quest that betrayed humanity to turn all of them into undead.

However, he did not feel any hesitation or hesitation about such a fact.

I just wonder what the rewards are for that.

“The reward is... the death knight summoning skill...?”

Death Knight, one of the top-level undead.

Everyone wanted to learn this skill, which was no different from a necromancer\'s romance, but due to the extremely limited acquisition path, the auction house boasted astronomical prices. Of course, it was a reality that even that was not available for sale, so no matter how much money you had, you couldn’t get it.

A skill so valuable that any necromancer would roll their eyes.

He smiled at the fact that he could get it just by killing a few village NPCs.

“It’s a jackpot.”

That\'s how he immediately ended his own secret pastime and headed back to Coil Village. To get the Death Knight summoning skill by turning all the villagers who greeted him kindly into undead.

* * *

Ellis who oversees everything in Arcadia.

She was reporting the quests she was granting to Jack, the chief developer, in real time.

[Currently, there are 534212 users who are on quests related to Pandemonium, and the achievement rate is 82%.]

Quest progress is relatively high.

And looking at the gauge that was nicely visualized on one side, Jack said with a frown as if he couldn\'t understand.

[No, why is the quest completion speed so fast? When did it start, did it already exceed 80%?]

The 4th main scenario Demon World.

A grand narrative that reactivates the gates of hell hidden throughout Arcadia and triggers the invasion of the demon world. It was not a simple story, but a scenario that would have a key impact on the entire continent, so the requirements were designed to be more difficult and complicated than expected from the beginning.

However, the current Arcadia is very different from the previous one. That\'s why the difficulty of the scenario itself was incomparably lower than the original plan.

[Due to the fall of the Holy Empire, there is no core force to check their plans. In addition, due to the recent second half crisis scenario, security in each country is extremely unstable, so there is no system capable of detecting and preventing related incidents...] The

situation in Arcadia is so chaotic.

As a result, there were no people anywhere to detect and stop the plans of the evil warlocks to spread out and bring the armies of hell to the world.

[So... just to say the conclusion, because of all sorts of riots and incidents, there are no more people to stop them, and because of that, the scenario is progressing at such an absurd speed...?] [That\'s right

. ]

[So.... when do you think the scenario will start in earnest?]

Jack asks the exact time. And to that question, Alice gave the answer after a moment of silence.

[Considering the current pace of progress, the scenario will start within the next 60 hours.]

[It\'s too fast...]

Less than 3 days left.

asked Jack, lost in thought, looking down at Arcadia, a perfectly lopsided playground where any significant opposition had completely disappeared.

[First of all, in the current state, in general, no matter what happens, you mean that the Demon World will win?] [

In principle, it is.]

[There is only one variable that can create a different ending...?]

[Yes.]

That A definite victory of the Demon Realm that cannot be prevented by any means.

However, even in this gloomy situation, there was only one huge variable that could create a different ending.

[Haa.....]

A user sitting with an archangel and a demon king on either side as if he didn\'t know anything.

Dex.

He, who is perhaps more influential in the game than himself as the creator. However, he has not even logged on for over two months. Looking at him, Jack sighs.
