Azief answer that question "I"ve changed"
"Did you change your thought too?" Loki immediately asked, his glare is sharp and Azief reply
"No. But I do now understand some things about evil"
Loki smiles a bit and then asked.
"And what do you understand about it?"
"As long as human live, there will always be evil. Even if I eradicated a whole batch of evil people in the world right now, one day a new evil will spread. Evil and good is in one hearts. As it took a push to go to evil, it also took a push to become kind. As long as there is evil in one heart, the kind could become evil and if there is light in one heart, it could be a seed for evil people to be kind. The hard thing is, is to know which person that is broken so much that he had no chance of being saved" Azief said with regret.
He then added
"That is the thing. I could not judge whose heart could be turned into being kind and whose heart that couldn"t. So I could only judge them based on their deeds. In the end, I punished who I believed is evil based on their deeds and action regardless of who it is and how many there are. If I see there is a sliver chance of hope, of light in that person, I might be thinking of sparing that person. It is not perfect but we live in an imperfect world. As long as I could protect the peace of my family, I will not hesitate to kill and destroy those who try to harm them"
Loki then asked
"Then what has changed?" Azief smiles and then said
"But maybe, because I have grown throughout the years, I learn to empathize with other people pains and as such I don"t want people that shouldn"t be hurt, get hurt. I couldn"t stand that kids after the Fall were sold around in place around the world like they were some objects or some kind of commodity. Do you know what they did to those kids, Loki? I think you could guess. After all, haven"t you seen what happens to kid when you were in your old group?"
Loki nodded.
He could imagine what happens to those kids.
If not for being some kind of s.e.x thing, they would be trained to become loyal to those who bought them either becoming a.s.sa.s.sins or expendables soldiers.
Azief continued his word
"I couldn"t stand that people would harvest organs from old people to make dishes for some cannibal"s serial killers. It is hard enough to run from man eating monsters, now people had to even be cautious with their fellow men?" Azief look at Loki and saw Loki looked shocked.
"Does that seem hard to believe?" Azief asked. Loki purse his lips. He knows that is true.
There is one cannibal serial killer from Samarkand that is known in the criminal underworld as Shark Jaw a few years ago.
He suddenly disappeared one day.
"Did you kill Shark Jaw?" Loki ask.
"I saw his report, and kill him. Is that wrong?" Azief said like it is just some distant memory
Loki did not say anything.
"I do not mention, the torturer, the cleaners for these criminals, the war merchants, the people who infiltrate these group and incite war, killing more and more people as they profited from their dark deeds. And all these criminals people all hides behind their gangs, their forces. So what do I do?"
"I burned them to the ground with their criminals as an offering for the dead souls, and turns them all to ash and dust. Eradicate evil. Eradicate Evil! Loki, you were not wrong at all. I do not change much. What they did were unspeakable deeds that would be scorned by any normal humans. I do not regret killing them at all. Because I know that by killing them I saved hundreds of people. But I myself never saw myself as a good man"
He sighed and then continued
"Good and evil is not like some kind of numbers games. I killed many people and I also saved many people. But good and evil is not about some kind of check and balance. Just because you save many people the moment you killed an innocent man you could become evil. A doctor that saves a thousand people might be praised as Divine Doctor but once he let his patient die because of some personal selfish intention, then a worm started burrowing in his heart. That is evil. That is evil burrowing in one heart. I dare not say that I am a nice and kind man. And I am not innocent. There is blood in my hands and below my feet are rivers of blood and a road of bones. But my conscience is clear"
Loki laughed hearing Azief words. Outside, the cloud covered the sunlight and for a while around the Palace, there is a dark feeling.
The wind blows coldly and the window is opened slightly ajar.
He then said
"And that is what they are afraid of. Those who is in the criminal underground all commits unspeakable deeds. They are evil but not all of them. But you eradicate evil wherever it pa.s.ses in front of your eyes. But what if you cast your gaze a little further than that? That is what they are afraid of and in their anxiousness, they turned to someone they should have not"
"Who? Void?" Azief ask raising his eyebrows. It is perplexing that Loki attach so much importance on this person.
Even when Sithulran arrive and even though Azief knows that Loki knows, even back then Loki never came to him to warn him of Sithulran.
But now, for Void, it is clear Loki is anxious about this person called Void. Could it be this Void have another secrets that he doesn"t know?
"Is he that dangerous?" Azief asked, looking at Loki eyes trying to discern the truth.
"He is" Loki nodded
"You see…. Void…. this person is just like Rosulka"
Azief ear perked up when he heard Rosulka. He heard of Rosulka before. She is the enemy of Katarina. Yet, even though Katarina is capable of ending her, she never did.
And Katarina never told him about what happens between them
"What do you mean by that Loki?" Loki grins as another fit of cough attacked him. Through the cough, he is still grinning and then he said
"Like Rosulka, Void is just someone who wanted to watch the world burns. They do not want power, influence or wealth. They just like to see the fire they started and see that fire grows until it burns everything. Sometimes they are people like that. Madman"
Azief then asked
"And what are they planning?" Loki shakes his head and reply
"I don"t know. I didn"t hear until that part before I got detected" Azief notices that Loki is not telling him the entire truth.
Azief was thinking a bit contemplating on Loki words. He knows Loki is not telling him all the truth but at least he knows he got half of the truth.
"How did you get that information?"
"What information?" Loki asked back
"That the criminal underworld has turned to Void?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"I have a sleeper agent in the criminal underworld" Azief hearing this responded by saying
"Of course you do" Azief said sighing.
It seems Loki dip his hand in a lot of places and his influence is hidden very deeply that even he does not know how long and expansive that reach is.
Azief eyes narrowed. This little brother of his is too incredible.
"So, you found out about his election when you were chasing after him?" Loki nodded unconsciously and Azief smirk
"So, then why were you chasing him? What business you have with him that prompted you to chase him all over the world until even entering the criminal underworld meeting?"
Loki eyes widened for a bit before realizing he falls into a trap. He only smirks and calmly replied
"It is the business you do no approve" Azief scoffed.
"The future?"
"The future" Loki replied back. Azief is clearly displeased with this.
