After that last punch, Eddie finally felt tired, for he had just fought with the outlanders and now co to 'practice' his martial arts with the soft dummy.
*Huff* *Huff*
*Fwuuu...*
Eddie let out a long breath...
Then he suddenly turned his head towards his right side, spotting the one who had 'convinced' him not to kill the mongrel, Benjamin, earlier.
"What are you doing here, glasses bastard? Leave alone, won't ya?"
*Sigh*
Mitchell let out a sigh upon hearing Eddie's annoyed voice. Then he said,
"Please don't get mad at . I also want to get the man killed as much as you. He is a fucking troublemaker and self-centered bitch, after all."
When Eddie had heard Mitchell's opinions about Benjamin, Eddie finally cald down a bit and asked back,
"Then why did you bloody prevent from stomping his fucking disgusting head?"
But Eddie's tone of voice was still a bit heat...
So, Mitchell could only try to settle him down further,
"Calm down first. Let explain. Give a chance, okay?"
*Fwuuu...*
After letting out a long breath originated from the depth of his lungs, Eddie gave Mitchell a chance to explain himself,
"Okay, only this once. Also, if your reasons do not add up, I will smash that disgusting-mouther's head once and for all. Nobody can stop anymore. Not even you."
"Alright. Alright. Nobody will stop you. I promise." Mitchell gave his promise to Eddie.
But that was actually a trigger as Eddie suddenly thought about his promise with Skylar,
"Fuck! The more I think about his nasty face, the more furious I am. Now talk your things." Eddie fud once again.
'This guy is almost hopeless. Still, at least he wants to listen...'
Having thought like that, Mitchell started his reasoning,
"Then calm down and listen. If you kill that guy now, so people might beco dissatisfied and think their lives are also being grasped within your hands the sa as Benjamin. They will think that whenever you want to kill anyone here, you can do so easily. Thus, they might think of a way to..."
"But that man is a fucking murderer!"
Eddie interrupted Mitchell again as it seed like he still didn't quite get Mitchell's logic.
*Sigh*
Having let out a sigh, Mitchell continued his piece,
"I said to listen carefully. Do not interrupt just yet."
*Hmph!*
Eddie let out a harrumphed sound as a result.
That was to be expected, though...
Nevertheless, Mitchell spoke again,
"Do you know the aning behind the word 'hypocrite'?"
Upon hearing the sudden question that didn't want an answer, Eddie shook his head in annoyance, whereas his mind felt a bit more sobered than earlier,
'Hypocrite? The word sounds familiar...'
"Then let tell you its aning." Said Mitchell while adjusting his glasses fra like so kind of expert.
When Mitchell realized he finally got Eddie's attention, he explained further,
"A hypocrite is a person who claims to have moral standards to which that person's own behavior fails to conform with those mortal standards themselves. That's why yo..."
"Wait, wait... Can you elaborate a bit more first?"
Before Mitchell could even describe further, Eddie, who was scratching his bald head in a muddle, interrupted him,
With a roll of his eyes, Mitchell gave more detail about a hypocrite,
"In other words, a hypocrite is just a pretentious bastard who thinks he is always right while other people who don't share the sa worldview as him are judged as bad people and criminals. That's why yo..."
"Wait... Are you saying I'm a criminal now!?"
Again, when Mitchell tried to go in-depth into the topic, he was interrupted by the 'fuming' Eddie.
'For fuck sake. This dickhead...' Mitchell cursed Eddie within his mind. Then he continued earnestly,
"That's right, that type of people will look at you with the sa eyes they used to look at Benjamin and Angelo. Because you do not share the sa worldview as them, and you also lead them like a dictator, they might rebel at your 'coup'. And I know, you don't want that to happen, right?"
After seeing that Mitchell was finally done talking, Eddie replied uncaringly with an 'I don't care' expression,
"Hmm... Well... Who cares?"
Having heard Eddie's uncaring tone, Mitchell suddenly felt dumbfounded,
"What? Are you for real?"
"Yeah. If they sohow rebel against us or don't listen to us, what can they do with that amount of people? After all, they are just the minority here. They also have to rely on everyone else for their survival. What if I just kill one scumbag? At worst, we will use force to press them down the ground. More importantly, I have killed so many people in my life already; there is no problem adding one more to the list at all."
It was indeed, as Eddie had said...
That was... if soone viewed it from a soldier's point of view.
As for Mitchell?
He was never a soldier, so he had a different worldview...
"Aiz... My friend. You are such a straightforward bigot who acts according to his own belief, the very definitive opposition of a hypocrite itself. That's why when you said, "there is no problem"; it is, in fact, the real problem we're discussing now because you can not kill people as you wish."
"You are trying to cram your worldview into my head; you want to think like you. Now, don't you think you are the real hypocrite here?"
That's why people back on Earth usually said, "Everyone has their own reasons for everything."
The two friends would never be able to co into a real truce...
But they were still friends anyway.
"..."
"..."
After a short silence and having a look at one another's face silently, Mitchell opened his mouth first, trying to sound as serious as possible,
"Don't try to change the topic."
"So, you are not gonna accept that you are the real hypocrite." Eddie spoke back with a hint of amusent within his eyes.
"No, I won't listen to a bigot."
"Nah... You are a hypocrite."
"Fuck you."
"Fuck you, too."
"..."
After cursing at one another as a formality, the two finally had light smiles plastered on their faces...
When he finally felt a bit better from the earlier rage, Eddie asked,
"Now what?"
"Do you believe in ?" Mitchell suddenly asked mysteriously.
"Why do you ask?" Eddie replied with a skeptical face.
"If you believe in , then we will kill that bastard my own way."
"..."
Upon hearing that Mitchell's words, Eddie's eyes suddenly lit up. Then he said,
"Okay... but if your plan fails to satisfy . I'm going to kill him even if everyone considers a brutal and cruel bigot afterward."
"Alright, regarding the plan, it is simple..."
Unbeknownst to the two of them, as they had already thought about a plan to kill soone.
If they were still on Earth, those thoughts of killing soone so easily like this wouldn't co into their minds, at least not so casual like this.
That only ant one thing, Eddie and Mitchell had started to adapt to the sudden change of their current environnt already.
Strange but true, humans could indeed adapt to any circumstances they were put in...
...
Within the normal-difficulty door...
The sky was bright, but the sun was absent, no cloud, only so light wind coming and going here and there.
Before Jeremy ca into this place, the winter forest had already looked lonely with only so wolves and other animals in so areas. However, the ever lonely winter forest now looked even more desolate than before, as if few to no life had ever existed here at all.
Well, that was obviously the doings of a certain soone...
The eco-unfriendly culprit, Jeremy, was sitting under a big parched tree, recuperating his exhausted body and mind with a particular breathing technique.
Earlier...
When Jeremy went away from the brick house, he decided to find soplace to rest and get back the energy and strength that he had spent fighting with almost a hundred wolves and accessing his sea of consciousness after that.
As a result, Jeremy had to rest more than an hour before starting his wolf hunting season. Afterward, Jeremy tortured many wolves, making them call forth their packs...
Whenever a pack of wolves ca, he fought and won almost effortlessly...
Whenever two packs of wolves ca, he kited them away and fought cleverly until none were left...
Fortunately, as Jeremy had 'disbanded' many packs of wolves within this trial, so the wolves had more territory space to share, causing them to sparse out everywhere inside the forest.
That's why the place looked even more spacious and desolate now.
That's also why they could not rally up more than two packs at a ti to hunt Jeremy down.
As of right now, Jeremy had already slain more than four packs of wolves. Well, combining with the four packs from before, that would make it eight packs of wolves.
Regarding the number, Jeremy had wiped out more than 250 wolves already...
That was a colossal number considering it was an astounding feat achieved by a newly arrived Earthling, low-ranked organism.
As a result, the wolf carcasses had been clustered lifelessly at the places of battles. But that was not important in any way, for Jeremy would co out of this place soon enough.
Soon enough, which ant after he had gained enough SP...
Then what would be considered 'enough' for our greedy forr sage?
Those were the things that only he himself knew...
Co back to the current situation...
After resting well for so ti, Jeremy was ready to continue another round of massacre again.
'After counting the number so far, it should be around half of their total amount. Well, am I making the winter wolves beco extinct now? Maybe killing so hundreds more will get a cool title like Wolf Hunter or sothing?'
'Nah... They were just so lowest-ranked organisms arranged by those designers anyway, as these animals are only regarded as half-real beings...'
Having thought this and that, Jeremy stood up from the cold ground. Then he chose a direction to where he had never been before to walk in.
*Scrunch*
*Scrunch*
His footsteps' sounds echoed out unsurprisingly pronouncedly inside the silent, desolate winter forest...
