Jeez, that's what's happen when you let greed cloud your common sense.
Holy shit....
Great chapter, and I love how brutal this guy is. He's like a serial killer, except he really only kills for a reason.

I guess after this chapter you fully understood Alexei's personality?
11802067
Indeed! Loving it so far, keep up the good work!
I'm trying to continue with this story, but the MC..... every chapter makes me hate him more and more. Quite literally the antithesis of all of my views and beliefs. Honestly I hope to never meet a..... ""person"", like this.
11802138
Well, that's fine.
He has a very specific life philosophy.
11802149
He's gone beyond sociopath and gone right into psychopath. He lacks guilt, remorse, or empathy entirely with his actions, where sociopaths can feel some guilt and empathy at times. His emotions are entirely faked. He is physically unable to form emotional connections with anyone at this moment. He is manipulative and narcissistic, and takes pleasure in it. All dead ringers for a psychopath.
11802160
I can assure you he's not a psychopath. He is experiencing emotions and feelings. The only difference is that he has a different value system.
He could have. But he's not interested.
Now that's completely untrue.
Narcissistic?
He doesn't think he's an exception to the rule, and he's never thought of himself as special.
Pleasure? Yes. Because it's another successful step towards his goal.
He takes no pleasure in supposed superiority in intelligence or cunning. He doesn't care.
You just have too different a viewpoint. I could see that in your attitude toward immortality.
So it would be hard for you to understand his true feelings. Just like he won't understand your values.
11802172
I guess I'm just not mentally fucked in the head enough to understand his views. And honestly, I'm thankful for that. And anyone who does needs severe mental help as they are a danger to those around them.
11802175
You know what the funny thing is?
Alexei wouldn't judge your views, values and goals. Nor would he consider them worse or better than his own.
Because he understands that everything related to human life is highly subjective.
11802187
The mental gymnastics required to wholly believe that, is astounding...... next you're gonna tell me that he's OK with genocide, because "everything related to human life is highly subjective."
11802194
I did my best to explain the character's views.
Again, it's okay if you didn't like the character.
I don't see the point in continuing the argument.
11802194
Think of him like a cultivator. Have you ever read a xianxia novel? The protagonist always have a painful beginning marked with self immolation to open his meridians to surpass what master Roshi from DBZ dubbed "the human wall".
This transformation from human to superhuman is painful and, more often than not, morally questionable. Because in their quest for power the most common obstacles that stand in the way of the cultivator's path to power is other people. So mutilation, betrayal, massacre, grave robbery, quest for knowledge and bloody rituals are the norm.
That is why most of the characters in a xianxia novel are jaded towards the "sanctity" of life, for a cultivator life has meaning only if it can further them towards their ambitions
11802240
snorted coldly
Junior, you dare to spoiler my story?
11802240
No, I have never read a "xianxia" novel, and if your goal was to get me to read one, you've failed miserably. The only thing you've done is fill me with disgust. Boggles my mind on how someone can enjoy something like that, some serious mental problems there.

I don't think the MC is supposed to be a likable character, but It doesn't make the story in of itself bad. I view it the same as one of Cormac McCarthy's books, Blood Meridian the MC "The Kid" is objectively a horrible person but that book isn't bad because of it. If anything it makes it more interesting because in 99% of books the MC is this great chivalrous guy who saves the day but in this case he is not. The MC does horrible things but is neither evil or good he just is, which makes it human. many people in real life look up to people who did objectively horrible things, but because of what they accomplished in life people look up to them and their ideals. George Washington and Thomas Jefferson owned slaves but people idolize them. Mao killed 80 million people and China loves him, What is good and evil it is quite subjective and irrational most times but often it is what society finds easiest to accept. People need to be put in boxes and have simple labels it's what our pattern seeking brain finds pleasing and necessary but at the same time it hides the true meaning behind life and how people function and operate. Which is why I enjoy this story not for some sort of sadomasochistic reason but because there is a lot of depth to the story because of the way the MC operates he acts truly beyond what society expects and demands, he is a human with society removed from the equation a complete oddball neither sane nor insane he just is and it even confuses me to a degree but keeps me keep reading just the same.

Can I... hug you?
This is the most profound feedback I've gotten so far.
11802245
Sorry, Sect Master! This unworthy young master asks for your forgiveness!
11802720
Good-good
11802524
Yes as long as I get more chapters, almost makes me want to learn Russian just so I can read the original
11802774
Deal!
I translate a chapter as soon as I post it in Russian. It takes me about an hour and a half to translate. Sometimes it's hard to find the appropriate phrases in English. So you won't have to wait long for the translation.
But of course you can learn Russian just for yourself
11802247
Rather weak of mind and spirit if you’re unable to enjoy a work of fiction because the protagonist isn’t some peace loving hippie. Life is full of people who could easily devolve into this kind of behavior, and like the fic has said it really was just social norms keeping them semi-in-line. But he no longer has those norms pressuring him, the Zebra are not his people.
11803198
Has nothing to do with the fact that he's not a "peace loving hippie" as you so put it. So excuse me for finding cold blooded murder abhorrent, unlike some people here.
I'm done with this anyway, rather not associate with psychos who find enjoyment in this kind of thing.
11803211
It's okay that you don't like a character or story.
But why do you insult those who do?
Are you enjoying your so-called moral superiority?
Damn.
The ONLY way that could have been any more Russian would have been if he'd taken out that rib while out on a block of ice.
Go Alexei!

This took a dark turn pretty quick.
Okay, so apparently he’s going to be fine.
I did a google search and this is what showed up.
I also found this.
I didn’t even know our bodies could do stuff like that!
