What is the evolutionary benefit of morales?
What purpose does justice serve?
What is evil? Am I evil? I have ask these questions many times indeed. And yet I have yet to find an answer that I find satisfactory. From what I can tell justice or the concept of justice was simply left because it didn’t have a large enough negative effect on survival rate to be bread out.
So instead I shall ask what is the origin of Evil?
Is it not justice.
The inner thoughts of the third calamity.
•••••••
Me and Grim have left the temple place. I asked Grim what the temple was about and she didn’t even know why it was here. She said she watched it get build by some dwarf like creatures that had extra arms. Apparently it didn’t have anything to do with what was inside the door but was instead their to simply praise the workmanship of the door. Grim then went into great detail about how unfortunate they were. Apparently they all brought items of great craft and present them to the door.
And when no one was looking they were all stolen by a rat size dragon. Well now we're out looking for these void dwarfs to well, consume. Honestly I’m kind of curious. I mean I don’t really understand this how situation. I’ve never heard of a grimoire before but to be honest from what I can tell about what I saw in that place Grims probably insane valuable. But currently I don’t really know how so or how much. So once more I have the need to find my sister and ask. If Grim is as valuable as I thinks she is I’m sure my sister will confirm it.
Anyway Grim seems to know about the void. Apparently she’s know a lot of techniques that require void energy. This surprised me to be honest. When I was alive a wheat to a lot of places and saw a lot of things and the only other person i know have void techniques is my sister. Even powerful demon don’t have techniques that make use of void energy and it’s said that they are beings born from it. Well it’s not like I ask them I just stabbed them with my sword. Demons are annoying like that because they keep their soul in different place then their body’s and if that soul isn’t destroyed then they just keep coming. So do kill a demon one needs to track their soul down.
Oh yeah I’m currently watching something great. Seriously a swarm of millions of tiny winged dragons. And by that I mean buss sized dragons with wings the size of bees fight walking fort. Honestly I kinda of don’t want do anything to ruin this image but you know. Need souls and things.

Now then. Onto life’s important questions. Lizard army or giant human shaped fort. Oh you only live once.
-Grim were doing the big fort thingy ok
- sure but couldn’t you kill more lizards?
- it’s not… it’s about the romance of the situation I could kill lizards anytime but that thing nope.
- does that even have a soul?
- maybe let’s find out.
I use step to traverse the distance. I arrive at this foot of the mountain sized robot. It’s skin that of pure silver. I hear a roar as one of the lizards appear behind me. It’s not ten feet before it’s cut in four.
Sending my blade forward there's a flash of what would be described as a black light. I then watch as the foot of the machine it’s disconnected from the leg as it tumbles I am disappointed to find that this isn’t a robot as much as it’s a creature with a metal exoskeleton. Blood pores from the both leg and the disconnected foot.
My instinct return and I step fifty meters to the size a first slams down on the ground. The earth beneath the attack travels across to me It moves like a wave but I see it’s hard like a wall and travels with the speed of sound. Once more I step now I stand on its shoulder. It’s so large that I probably couldn’t skip that much more distance with my ability.
Once more there's a flash and now a red line is traced across the giant creatures. Blood pours from the neck the creature seem confused and half its neck has been severed. Another flash followed by two more and the head it's disconnected from its neck.
Still holding my sword I turn to the army of lizards.
“ Hey Grim how many lizards are needed?”
“ As many as possible”
“ Is that so”
I step forward. I think back on all that has happened and I realized it’s a normal day.
I find something and the voice in my head tells me to kill it so I do. Yep this is how most of my days went.
••••••
I stand ankle deep in blood. It was a fun fight. I came to understand how hard it is to kill this here. After fight for a while the big one got up again without any form of injury. I was shocked well then the other lizards got up and it became a battle of endurance. Not my favourite but still fun. Anyway the trick to killing was that you needed do something well that’s what Grim said at some point but after I started yawing my aura they just stopped getting back up again. Then Grim yelled at me about how my aura is terrible and that it damaged their souls. So apparently I wasn’t able to get all I was supposed to get considering how much a actually killed.
To be honest I kind of forgot about the hole, why I was here after the giant got up again. But all in all it been an ok day. Time to use devour.
