Chapter Index

    past.

    Iseon Yoon and I had a conversation about one thing.

    “Goblin. Why do you keep all the villains alive instead of killing them?”

    “Huh?”

    “That’s right. Although he is a villain executioner, surprisingly, he does not kill ‘all villains’.”

    It was a time when I made a name for myself as a villain executioner.

    “Is that because you discovered ZenLos? Or do you want to say that you are someone who no longer uses murder to seduce women?”

    “No. I mean, the ones who are in prison right now.”

    “Aha.”

    I once received a question from the world.

    Why don’t goblins execute those who have already been sentenced to death?

    “I wonder if you are trying not to intervene in cases where legal rulings have been made. Specifically, the reason why they don’t go to jail right away.”

    “Isn’t this a good restaurant for villain executioners?”

    “I’m not going there to achieve any kind of achievement.”

    If there was a systematic event or quest called ‘Execute the Villain’, prisons and prisons would certainly be like a restaurant for villain executioners.

    But I didn’t have any compensation from that system, and even if I had, I wouldn’t have done it.

    “The reason I don’t deal with those who have already committed a crime is simple. Because it is not a sin that I have seen with my own eyes.”

    “…….”

    “Just as a judge determines a defendant’s crime by examining hundreds or thousands of sheets of paper, I can use this ability to clearly determine a case of guilt on the spot.”

    If I cannot determine whether or not I have killed someone in the past, I do not swing the goblin bat carelessly.

    However, if someone is killed in front of me, I immediately take the appropriate response.

    And after discovering Zenroth, I kept him alive whenever possible, unless he was an extremely vicious criminal.

    “What you’re curious about is the waste of tax money that comes from keeping them alive instead of killing them, right?”

    “Ugh.”

    “It’s one thing to throw them in jail and feed them beans, but you can’t just sit back and watch them eat, sleep, and pay comfortably in a tax-funded prison. Isn’t that right?”

    “Well, there are some cases like that.”

    Yun Iseon thought.

    It is a waste of taxes to pay for violent criminals or those who commit life-imprisonment crimes.

    “Just like any other school meal, you need to think about nutritional balance when it comes to the food you feed them, and you need to monitor their health on a regular basis. I’ll be in prison for the rest of my life.”

    “Is it quicker to kill someone considering the food expenses they will spend for the rest of their life?”

    “Isn’t that right?”

    “That’s not true. Surprisingly.”

    This issue has already been discussed socially even before the cataclysm.

    “The reason is….”

    “Is this because people with special abilities still have special abilities and have value that can be recycled?”

    “There may be such a point of view, but isn’t it because it is more economically advantageous to just feed him beans and keep him alive rather than executing him?”

    “……?”

    The villain must be killed unconditionally.

    At that time, a talented young man who specialized in assaulting married women in the neighborhood was caught and even assaulted them, so many women had a negative opinion of him.

    There are people who deserve to be killed, so why do we keep them in prison instead of killing them?

    “People I know about this said this.”

    Hye-ra Yoon answered.

    “I will realize that I made a mistake only when I live in a place isolated from society and looking at the wall until I die.”

    He said that the death penalty is not executed in the sense that people should have time to repent and reflect on their sins in a limited place called prison.

    Hyeon Se-rin answered.

    “No matter what, it is a matter of killing a person, so we have to consider the mental stress of the person executing the death penalty, right?”

    Executioners are not the only ones under stress.

    In the process leading up to the death penalty, many people, including judges, human rights groups, prosecutors, and lawyers who will make the death penalty ruling, experience mental stress and burden.

    Juyeon Cheon answered.

    “Historically, there was also the problem of judicial murder.”

    He pointed out that the death penalty can be used as a political tool to simply kill someone.

    Seong Ji-eun answered.

    “There are times when execution is carried out and someone just dies unjustly, right?”

    The purpose of the sentencing process up to the death penalty is to prevent unjust deaths due to the fact that there was actually a separate culprit.

    only.

    “If up to this point the story is about a just and fair hero, from now on I will tell you why, from the perspective of a villain organization, those who are not violent criminals are not executed.”

    “The reason why Natural Born Villain Goblin speaks…!”

    “Because it is inconvenient, and it costs less money to just keep them in prison for life rather than executing the death penalty, and it can also contribute to job creation?”

    “Yes…?”

    “First of all, it’s annoying. How much manpower would be wasted in the process of issuing a death sentence, or in the process of deciding whether the death penalty is appropriate or not.”

    Prosecutor, lawyer, judge.

    It may be funny to talk about labor costs, but the social costs they incur are significant.

    “Isn’t it true that more taxes are spent on those who judge the legal principles leading up to a death sentence than on prisoners?”

    “…….”

    “And if you keep him alive with life imprisonment, you will have to manage him, right? Prison administrators, correctional staff, prison cafeteria managers, etc. Job creation is also possible.”

    “Ha….”

    “Above all, if the death row inmate is alive, there will be almost no cases where the bereaved family harbors a desire for revenge.”

    “…….”

    After considering various reasons.

    “It would be beneficial to keep him alive.”

    For the sake of world peace and systemic peace, excluding those to be executed, it was beneficial to keep the rest alive, regardless of whether they were serving life imprisonment or long-term imprisonment.

    “Except for the truly vicious ones.”

    “What happens to those who deserve to be killed?”

    “Do you want to know? I’m still planning it, but one day I’ll find out.”

    That’s what we said last year.

    Choi Ho-jeong disappears.

    After I won the World Cup.

    We decided to create economic benefits by accepting violent criminals, and through this, we decided to create a bright and healthy society.

    chamberlain.

    It’s like giving them time.

    * * *

    There are many martial people in the martial arts in the central plains, but not all of them belong to the martial arts alliance.

    Just as there are bandits in martial arts novels, in modern times there are not only bandits but also violent organizations.

    He tattoos his body to a suspicious degree, strains his shoulders, smokes and spits phlegm on the street, hits people, and goes on a rampage on his bike.

    Here, Jang Cho-ryong, a man with a dragon tattoo all over his body and his shaved head, goes around doing all of the above, but does not consider himself a ‘villain’.

    They simply live as they please and live a freer life than ordinary people.

    Proof that you are a villain?

    Isn’t the proof that the goblin didn’t come to kill him?

    Therefore, Nam Cho-ryong is not an evil person or a villain.

    There are people in the world who commit evil acts that are so evil that in the case of Nam Cho-ryong, it seems like they are just wholesome.

    A contract killing or something.

    And as soon as it was discovered on social media that they were contract killers, those people immediately went into hiding or went missing.

    Where did it disappear from?

    Nam Cho-ryong laughed as he watched them cut off news one by one, saying, ‘These guys have become mysterious,’ but he soon realized where they had disappeared to.

    “Heo-eok, heo-eok…!”

    Nam Cho-ryong opened his eyes.

    He felt like someone was attacking him from behind, and he woke up on his bed.

    A suspicious blue training suit.

    The unidentified number ‘3082’ was embroidered on his left chest, as if he were a prisoner, and there were many other people around him, including himself.

    Some of them were people who wanted to ‘use some strength’ like themselves, and some of them were mean-looking people.

    “Are you conscious?”

    A woman lying on the bed next to him asked Nam Cho-ryong.

    “What is this…?”

    “This is area AOZI-3269. To explain, you will be kidnapped by members of a syndicate and placed here to wait for your crimes to be judged.”

    “Well, what is that…!”

    “For your information, through this, everyone can confirm the sins you have committed…”

    “I am not guilty of anything!”

    A sound came from another direction.

    “Me, I’m a doctor! I’m different from criminals like you!”

    A man claiming to be a doctor started yelling at her, but the woman pointed the Taegeuk watch on her wrist at the man.

    “What, what?! Why are you guys suddenly using smartwatches…? Ah, I got it! It’s a tranquilizer gun! Are you trying to shoot me with that?!”

    As not only the woman but also everyone else was pointing their smartwatches at the man, Nam Cho-ryong pointed it at the man as well, and soon frowned at the profile that appeared as a hologram.

    “Sexual assault during sedative anesthesia surgery? Isn’t this complete trash?”

    “…….”

    “Seeing that reaction, I think it’s real. …Ha, damn it.”

    Nam Cho-ryong had a hunch.

    “If you have been caught in a death trap, the only way out is death.”

    “Well. It would be difficult to die in any way. Don’t make a scene. This is a hell for villains, but there is a deeper bottom.”

    “What is that…?”

    “It’s meal time. Hey, man. It’s time for breakfast, why don’t you go?”

    “…I’m not going.”

    The man who was lying dazedly on another bed looked up at the sky and answered.

    “There will be rice noodles for side dishes today anyway.”

    “So what. Should I complain about my diet? And then you want to go down to the ‘pig pen’?”

    “…….”

    “Don’t worry. But today, our villain executioner seems to be in a good mood.”

    The woman giggled and pointed to the sky.

    “Although the food is just before the expiration date, this area still does not provide leftover food.”

    “Ah, no…! Eating leftovers…?”

    “New employee. There will be times when leftover food looks like a fairy.”

    The bearded man trembled as if he didn’t want to even think about something.

    “…If you don’t want to eat the food you threw away, follow along quietly. Because today is rice noodles.”

    “…….”

    “It even comes with seafood mixed sauce. You’re lucky today.”

    “…….”

    Nam Cho-ryong had a hunch.

    “Kodari Gangjeong? …You’re really crazy today?”

    “Why is pickled cabbage served all three days? Is it possible that there is a lot of cabbage to be discarded due to the abundant cabbage harvest?”

    “I’m glad it’s not a school lunch jam. After….”

    The fact that there is an even worse hell beneath your feet.
