The life of livestock is determined from birth.

The mother is from a farm, and on the farm, she is raised as a female and repeats breeding and giving birth.

They are born as livestock, grow up as livestock, and die as livestock.

And the lives of livestock vary depending on their use.

Some excellent livestock are grown from seed to adulthood, while others are shipped from a young age.

Did you say Azure?

They say that in order to eat meat that is a little more tender than regular pork, they kill the pig when it is a baby and boil it whole.

It is said that the price of the little pig is sometimes equivalent to that of a large pig.

Humans value efficiency.

When livestock farm owners raise livestock, they consider efficiency and cost to see how much money the livestock can make in the market.

Livestock are commodities, and those without commodity value are likely to be discarded.

In this age of ability, what is human value?

If we look at humans purely as commodities rather than looking at them through the concepts of ethics and morality, how much can each human be worth?

It will depend on how much economic added value can be generated, but if you look purely at the human body, buildings and apartments may be more expensive than humans.

Especially when humans are born in countless numbers and newborns are overflowing.

And even more so in a place like this island where all ethics and morals are thrown away and even humans are considered commodities based solely on economic logic.

This is especially true in places that think of humans as livestock and try to use humans for economic gain.

So what are the economic effects that can be achieved by raising humans?

long time? Human testing?

In all kinds of movies, novels, and dystopian worldviews, the human body becomes money.

This world is a little different.

Only by giving birth to multiple humans and selecting ‘talented people’ among them can economic added value be created.

What kind of added value?

Combat troops can be used.

It can be used as the next generation military.

And children who do not obey are boldly ‘disposed’, and the bodies of those with disabilities are cleanly burned, creating another added value.

okay.

Needless to say, humans are not the only slaves on this island.

Because so many children are born, there is bound to be at least one child born with magical powers, whether it is class E or class D.

And the children born that way are divided according to their purpose.

I have traveled around the world and seen many villains.

The darkness of this world that will now unfold before your eyes is only a part, a cross-section, of the ‘malice’ created by the villains.

That aspect alone is absolutely terrifying.

[You came out.]

A lot of magic can be felt at a toll gate-like place built on a bridge in the middle of the road approaching the island.

The inside of the toll gate, which is tunnel-shaped so that it cannot be seen from the outside, is full of red lights aimed at us.

[Gunggi. Abandon the car.]

[I’ll run.]

Gungi jumped high in place, and I stepped on the accelerator of the car, damaging it, and jumped to the side.

To suppress inertia, he rolled the floor once, hit the bat on the floor, and stopped his body by applying strength to his hands.

Kwa-eu-ang!

The car exploded.

The engine did not overheat and explode, but was destroyed by a magic bullet flying from afar.

And the ones who fired those magic bullets were none other than boys and girls.

In the dark, against the barrier inside a wide tunnel-type toll gate where external cameras cannot be seen, children about 140cm tall are wearing military uniforms and pointing guns at us.

[Is it any better here? In Syria, they gave AKs to all the kids. It’s still a pistol here.]

[It might be a pistol because it’s the entrance. They may be carrying mortars inside the controlled island.]

Gungi came next to me and stretched out his hand forward.

Hwareuk.

A shield of dark red flames unfolded before us.

Immediately towards the shield, countless magic bullets-

Ta-da-da-da-dan!

[There are also live bullets mixed in.]

[You received a good education. If you mix live bullets and magic bullets and shoot them, it will be more troublesome to block them.]

It hit the shield with a lead bullet.

Whether it’s live bullets or magic bullets, it has no meaning to me.

But they know it, and the people behind them know it too.

However, the reason they keep shooting is because they want to consume a little more of our mana.

If the barrage of bullets drains even 1% of the mana of the archer, they will judge that as a ‘benefit’.

Those guys in the back.

‘I don’t know the horror of the scene.’

That our attacks do not work on the opponent.

When we fire bullets, it is not simply to stop the enemy, but to reduce the opponent’s magical power.

Thus, they realize that they have been mobilized solely for the purpose of draining the opponent’s magical power.

That’s when it’s time to launch a counterattack.

[These guys are trained to kill people, so what are they going to do? Are you going to kill them all?]

[I have to remain as a witness. You can’t just blindly kill kids like that. These are kids who grew up over there.]

These children do not realize that they are villains.

From the moment they were born, they were raised as livestock, combat weapons, and villains, so they don’t know anything.

[If there is no room for rehabilitation even after resocialization, it is not too late to dispose of it.]

[Then now…]

[You have to stun them so they can capture those coming behind you.]

I looked back.

Gungi caused explosions and destroyed the bridge several times, but even though ordinary vehicles cannot cross it, people can.

For example, a hero.

[How to prevent heroes from chasing. The first one.]

[It creates countless people who need to be rescued immediately.]

It would be better if it were children with guns like that.

[Goes.]

I knocked the goblin bat on the floor and made it into a new shape.

It was made in the form of a pure baseball bat, with all the thorns on the outside removed.

Too doo doo!

As soon as I pop out next to the shield, a magic bullet flies towards me.

They are all E and D classes, but if you receive that directly from your body, it will definitely hurt.

therefore.

Run with a shield in front of you.

Hwareuk.

A protective shield of dark red flames unfolds in front of me as I run.

I rushed straight into the shield, and the shield covered my body like plastic.

Ride it!

When charging with a shield, there is no damage.

Although physical resistance arises, Agility A’s speed can easily overcome that resistance.

Good luck!

The moment it gets close to the barrier, it grabs the flame shield and throws it to the side, disturbing the view.

The moment the children’s eyes turned to the protective shield, I swung the bat wide to the side.

“Wow!”

The person with superpowers in front was hit in the back of the head with a bat and his face hit the barrier.

When one person fell down and let out a sigh, only then did the people with special abilities point their guns at me.

Not children.

Not kids with guns.

These are people with superpowers holding guns, and they are nothing more than murder weapons.

bang!

I took the gun from the fallen man and shot him with one hand.

The live bullet hit the forehead of the person with the supernatural ability opposite me, and his body froze.

[You won’t die if you get hit by that.]

You must have felt the fear of death.

Tuk.

The moment a curved lead bullet landed under his reddened forehead, I ran to his side and swung the bat at his solar plexus.

“K, heo-eok….”

slow.

If he were an adult, he would be able to subdue him more quickly, but since the opponent is small, he keeps losing concentration no matter how much he hints that he is a person with special abilities.

“Aaaah!!”

The people with special abilities started firing guns at me all at once.

Gunshots rang out loudly in the tunnel, and I dodged the guns and deflected them with my bat, suppressing them all one by one.

[I’ll let you guys know just in case.]

Phew!

[Those with special abilities must not be shaken in their beliefs. And I have this belief.]

I put down the gun and swung the bat sideways with all my might at the girl who was running toward me with a combat knife, the blade wrapped in magic.

[Murderers are regardless of gender or age.]

Everyone is killed equally.

[Remember that your execution is only a ‘reservation’.]

Kang!

He hit the guy who was trying to block his head with the gun and hit him with the bat.

The moment magical power protects the head, a strong shock wave is emitted, causing a concussion.

Tu-wook.

Falling down like in a drama? There is no such thing.

Whether or not they fall face down on the floor, there is no need to look at the circumstances of those whose brains are shaken and fall down.

[There, it’s you.]

I dodged the magic bullets flying from the front by lightly nodding my head, and threw the bat at the guy in the back who was just about to run away with his back turned.

Wow!

The bat hit the guy’s back exactly, and the bat fell to the floor with a metallic sound.

[Were they wearing a plate suit as inner armor?]

I jumped forward, stepped on the back of the guy lying on the floor, and stretched out my hand in the air.

Sigh.

The bat fell to the floor and returned to my hand.

The one who was much larger than the others looked more like an adult than a child, and had something similar to a blue epaulet on his shoulder.

[You are the leader.]

“Ugh, wow!!”

Tang, ta-da-dang.

[oh. Where are you shooting at a world-class treasure?]

“Ugh, ugh, these monsters…!”

The guy turned around and fired a bullet at me from below, but before I knew it, the bullet melted in the air as a dark red flame appeared behind me as if surrounding me.

[They are poor children who lived their lives without even knowing that they were monsters.]

Tuk.

Gunggi raised his foot and trampled on the guy’s forehead with his high heel.

At the same time, he rolled his eyes, convulsed, and passed out on his side, foaming at the mouth.

[You are not hesitating, are you?]

[no way.]

The execution was only postponed.

[Execution has its ups and downs, right?]

Inside the tunnel.

Power, faint.

[Gunggi. Just past here is an island.]

[Let’s start right from the entrance?]

[of course.]

I stretched out my hand towards the gung-gi.

[From now on, I will turn this island into a prison of flame. Come, Gungi. It is unity.]

bang!

I aimed the goblin bat at the floor.

Soon the tunnel began to shake and the ceiling began to collapse, and I threw myself into the dark red flames that covered the tunnel.

[From now on….]

There is only one thing to do.

[Burn the island, destroy it.]

Executed by burning at the stake.
