Moonlight Sculptor: Dad is a Legend (73)
“If you haven’t come back for so long, you’ve been tempted by the devil.”
“… … .”
“If I had rejected the temptation right away, I would have come back! But why would I keep wasting time? Or, I might be in a dangerous situation where I will soon die.”
“… … .”
“It would be better to send him away by our hands than to die at the hands of the devil.”
Zenfester was becoming increasingly heated in his arguments.
Since I’ve already decided to strike Weed, I’m in a position where I have to swing my sword somehow.
“Hey… … . Brother.”
“Look behind you.”
When Aaron and Suyeon spoke, Zenfester’s heart sank.
When he slowly turned around, he found Weed’s eyes open.
Weed was listening to the words that were being said to convince him to kill her.
“Hmm, human brain sounds tasty. I should feed it to some guy.”
The summoned tentacle monsters and raptors approached.
Churp!
The tentacle monsters come closer and touch your body with their tentacles as if they are looking for a tasty meal.
Tentacles caressing your legs and arms and stroking your head.
The raptors were taking a charging stance, not hiding their ferocious expressions.
“Uh, um… … .”
“We tried to stop them.”
Weed saw three people instantly engulfed in an atmosphere of fear.
Death, punishment.
It was a situation where anything was fine.
‘I didn’t know this situation would come so quickly.’
(Even if he dies, the viewers’ friendly feelings toward the master will not waver.)
If you tried to kill me in Roanoke, you have nothing to say even if you die.
Moreover, it is not as if Weed has lived for the past 20 years only calling for peace.
* * *
The world has been at peace for the past 20 years because Lee Hyun has broken or changed many laws.
If you look at the social news on the Internet, all kinds of things are happening.
A mother died of a chronic illness, and her 3-year-old daughter died alone after starving.
“Can we eliminate this?”
It was something that felt so sad, even to Lee Hyun’s dry sensibility.
How hungry must the child who was left alone have been?
And how many times did I cry while looking at my mother who didn’t move?
(It’s the government’s job, not yours.)
“The government is still not interested in this kind of thing even after 10 years. They only pretend to be interested during elections.”
From the perspective of the common people, the only time politicians feel friendly is during elections.
(Based on the data I have, I can create a list of people who are in poor medical and economic situations.)
(It will be possible to measure risk through things like call history, cell phone movements, electricity usage, medical records, and CCTV installed on the street.)
(If there is no movement for a certain period of time, it is believed that it is possible to take action by hacking the cell phone and obtaining video and audio of the surrounding area. However, multiple laws must be broken.)
(There are laws that are difficult to amend, including the Personal Information Protection Act.)
“It’s about saving people. Go ahead.”
Lee Hyun believed that absolute power easily corrupts.
That’s why he didn’t take over the Unicorn Group and come to the forefront, and he also quit Royal Road.
‘I also think that my personality is not that great. So, if I wield power, I will inevitably become corrupt at some point.’
Do good deeds now, because they will rot someday.
If it’s going to be good, it might as well be a fermented food that’s good for your stomach health, rather than something that’s going to rot badly.
I’ve found that sometimes, to save people, it’s worth breaking the law rather than keeping it.
There was a time when the law was held sacred, but when you watch lawmakers make laws, that’s all an illusion.
‘Zombie Drug’ Spreads Massively on US Streets
People walking around like zombies in America.
The number of drug addicts was increasing rapidly every year, and there was no solution.
“The US government is slow to move.”
(It involves multiple countries, and international criminal organizations are taking advantage of it, so it won’t be easy to reduce it.)
“Cut off the supply.”
We eliminated raw materials produced in China and South America.
It was of course necessary to develop a separate antidote to treat addicts.
The artificial intelligence Versa had a record of every person on Earth, including their biometrics, social activity records, and consumption records.
Of course, information about the area is secured.
There are many things that can be done with big data that go beyond imagination, including crime prevention and detection.
(The number of people dying from hunger and disease in Africa has decreased by 32% compared to last year.)
“Let’s reduce it by 80% this year.”
Lee Hyun managed the Unicorn Group’s massive funds and distributed them around the world.
Meanwhile, criminals in reality have been punished several times in the past.
By the time my daughter entered kindergarten, there was a massive crackdown on child sex offenders.
For child rapists, sentences were not the key to punishment.
All right.
Added a form of cutting off in many countries, including Korea.
Human rights groups around the world have risen up in large numbers.
“Cutting off a body part is a punishment that ignores human rights!”
“Criminals are also people. We must not lose respect for humanity and give them a chance to reflect on their sins.”
“There is nothing that can be solved through punishment alone. It will only create a social atmosphere of fear and will have no effect.”
There have been stories of excessive punishment and human rights violations.
Politicians who received Lee Hyeon’s advice stood up to him confidently.
“Why do they have human rights?”
“yes?”
“Only humans have human rights. It is true that those who have given up on being human do not have human rights. Furthermore, those who violently violate the human rights of others should be given appropriate punishment.”
Snip. Snip. Snip. Snip. Snip.
Sex crime rates have fallen dramatically around the world as convicted child sex offenders are wiped out with clear evidence.
Sex offenders feared extreme punishment, even though human rights groups argued it would have no effect.
In South America, where it is unimaginable for a woman to walk alone at night, the crime rate has dropped by 99%.
Even the social atmosphere in India, which had been criticized around the world for serious sexual crimes, changed.
“Criminals eat well and live well off of taxes? Why should that be?”
Lee Hyeon did not show leniency to serious criminals.
If someone commits a crime, there are bound to be victims.
Isn’t it unreasonable that the criminals are comfortable in prison while the victims are suffering?
It was also unconvincing that the judges forgave the victims when the victims did not.
(Prisons in many countries, including the United States, are overflowing. Financial costs are also high.)
Lee Hyun could provide financial support, but he felt it was a waste to spend it on criminals.
It was considered ideal to rehabilitate criminals in good correctional facilities so that they could reintegrate into society.
“It’s fortunate that the criminals are resting and not exchanging information.”
I don’t like it, regardless of the practical effect.
At the very least, I believed that those who committed serious crimes of their own free will should pay a just price.
“Let’s send serious criminals to a deserted island.”
Several countries joined together to detain criminals on a large scale on a large island in Southeast Asia.
They did not build a separate prison, and only provided basic equipment such as flint, nails, hammers, and ropes.
“I will build a house and live there on my own.”
(What should I do about food?)
“I’m sure you’ll figure it out yourself.”
(What if I starve?)
“You must be hungry.”
(Are you sick?)
“It must hurt.”
Lee Hyun threw modern people into a harsh natural environment.
The island’s security is maintained by armed robots, and criminals are forced to survive among themselves.
They dug up and chewed on plant roots, caught and ate ants, and some toiled all day long to catch fish.
No matter how hard I tried, it was difficult to avoid hunger, and it taught me the importance of a single meal.
“You have to know how grateful you are for the society that feeds you and gives you a place to sleep.”
Only those in emergency situations or on the verge of starvation were treated and then released back onto the island.
“I must live long enough to pay the price for my sins and reflect on them.”
Some criminals were talented enough to find food on the island and build pretty nice houses to live in.
It is about enjoying freedom even in nature.
Whenever Lee Hyun felt stressed about raising children, she gave instructions to the artificial intelligence.
“Tear down all the houses built by criminals.”
Destroying the house I worked so hard to build.
They even sprayed mosquitoes on the island in large quantities.
Criminals who are bitten by mosquitoes day and night.
Still, some criminals adapted well by living with mud on their bodies.
“That’s amazing.”
Lee Hyun was impressed by the adaptability similar to his own.
Some criminals formed an organization and ruled like kings.
Wherever people gather, there is a society, and weaker criminals provide food and shelter.
As the world of the law of the jungle unfolded, I didn’t mind criminals suffering, but I didn’t want to let them live comfortably there.
Because I thought they were the worst.
“Let the strong ones live alone. It’ll be harder for them to take care of everything by themselves, including food and shelter. And let them have lots of mosquitoes and pests.”
Is it necessary to commit a sin, regret it, and reflect on it in a good environment?
You have to pay the price while feeling the most pain possible.
In this way, it provides the world’s criminals with the most brutal prison conditions.
Children who had shown signs of being criminals or had shown bad behavior from an early age were given a tour of the island prison.
A phenomenon occurs where rough and fierce people stay on the island for a day and then return, transforming into model students who study hard.
Most children were able to come to their senses after seeing how prisoners who committed crimes condemned by society lived.

Weed said to Zenfester.
“Hey, isn’t this the perfect weather to die on?”
“Ugh.”
Zenfester’s blood drains away in fear of death.
Aaron and Sooyeon were also terrified, as the tentacle monster slowly pulled out a brain-sucking tube from its mouth.
“I’m sorry… … .”
“Don’t worry. It will hurt, but it will be over quickly.”
“Heeeeek!”
Weed didn’t want to kill anyone yet.
It wasn’t like there was a truly unavoidable and dangerous situation, and killing someone in front of people was a public execution.
The tentacle placed the tube against Zenfester’s forehead.
Just before it pierces your forehead and sucks out your brain.
‘I wonder if that guy’s family is watching this scene too?’
(Currently watching.)
‘Then let’s stop here.’
Weed made the tentacles step back.
“I can save you, but you owe me a debt.”
“yes?”
“I owe you my life.”
“Oh, yes. I understand.”
Zenfest gladly accepted the offer to spare his life.
Without even knowing how dangerous debt is.
(I’m glad the owner took such generous measures.)
‘why?’
(I hoped the master would kill that kind of person and not suffer needlessly.)
To the artificial intelligence, Zenfester was just a passing bug.
‘It wasn’t a difficult decision. Zenfester didn’t have that much good equipment.’
If there was any legendary equipment, I might have considered killing it and taking it or just taking it.
“Thank you.”
“Thanks to you, I was able to catch the bus.”
Weed is the final stop on stage 7 of Hell, but others enter the world of Roanoke.
There was no way of knowing how many of the three would survive, or if they would ever see each other again.
You have passed the seventh test of Hell difficulty.
Sealed Demon’s Labyrinth.
As I faced the dangerous demon, I realized that I had to overcome it one day.
The one who holds the dragon evolves into the 5th stage.
The dragon is finally about to be born.
All stats increase by 8.
You have earned 15 Legend Points.
* * *
Level 8 of Hell.
The end is finally near.
On this stage, you will go through several small tests.
The first thing you have to do is survive!
You have to overcome the crisis of death within 5 seconds.
“Cut the neck.”
“You cheeky bastard, you’re making me suffer till the end.”
“I should take the tooth out as a souvenir.”
Weed quickly read the message window as the next inferno difficulty began.
At the same time, I heard the voices of soldiers talking next to me.
Clank!
The arms were bound together with chains.
The moment a nearby soldier was about to swing his sword at Weed.
(Dangerous! You must get out quickly!)
Before the warning from the AI Versa ended, Weed was moving according to his instincts.
“Cough!”
He raises his arm to block the sword strike with his chain, then raises his knee to strike the soldier in the side.
He grabbed the sword that the soldier had dropped in an instant with both hands.
You have acquired the Executioner’s Sword of the Kingdom of Rebaid.
Even though his hands were tied, he had no trouble swinging the sword he had already grabbed.
Crunch!
He rotated his body to increase his attack power and slashed at nearby soldiers.
The way to draw a beautiful trajectory.
The soldiers’ bodies were literally split in two.
You have successfully survived the first round.
As a reward, your maximum life is increased by 30.
