The laws of a country were designed to benefit the common people. But those who decided the laws had countless ways to escape punishment even when they were the ones breaking the laws.
“Lu Kun!” Mo Fan stared at the red figure.
Lu Kun had finally shown himself, and seemed completely fearless. He was not worried even though his identity was exposed in a human town. He was acting like the place had always been his kingdom. He had only come to punish the people who had disobeyed his rules!
“It looks like we have found our thief,” Lu Kun went closer and stared at Mo Fan. “Things are simple since you already knew the secret of the evil orb. I’ll treat the half-matured evil orb as a gift to you.”
“What do you mean?” Mo Fan was confused.
“Don’t you desire power? I can give you everything you want. The Magic City is so big. It’s an endless supply of energy. Why would I be fussed over a little Prison Mountain? I can give it to you if you like it,” Lu Kun said generously.
“I bet there are conditions, too,” Mo Fan harrumphed.
“Of course, you can become a person who decides the rules too!” Lu Kun said.
“Are you inviting me to join you?” Mo Fan was surprised.
“Either way, you are one of us too, am I right?” Lu Kun stared at the Essence Orb on Mo Fan’s waist with a smile.
“Unfortunately, we are different by nature. Besides, I’m a Hunter, and you are a demon,” Mo Fan shook his head, decisively rejecting Lu Kun’s offer.
Was Lu Kun trying to bribe him? Who did he even think he was?
“I don’t think we are that different.”
“You are just an evil existence that escaped East Guardian Tower by taking over a human’s body. Do you really think of yourself as a human, making rules as you please?” Mo Fan half-laughed.
“Oh, so you know who I am? First, my name is Kazuaki, I escaped to China after my friend set me up. I changed my name and started a new life again after driving the demon in me away. Is there any problem with that?” Lu Kun demurred.
“What about Prison Mountain? Those prisoners are behaving like puppets…” Mo Fan pointed out.
“Have you counted how many people I’ve taken in after they lost their homes because of the headquarters cities?” Lu Kun asked in return. “I’ve also given criminals a new purpose for their lives. I’ve contributed greatly to society. The Prison Mountain you went to has helped build thousands of kilometers worth of dams to prevent people from becoming food to the sea monsters.
“I’ve never hurt them, nor have I taken a single life. They work for me, and in return, I provide them with food and shelter. Even the government has given me an award in recognition of my service. Most importantly, I’m only taking away their negative emotions. Anger, laziness, gambling obsessions…
“If this place is my little kingdom, I bet you won’t find a more benevolent king than me!”
Lu Kun raised his voice as he was speaking. He seemed extremely pleased with the things he had built. He had no reason to fear a Hunter like Mo Fan!
Hunters were the ones breaking the rules most of the time. They often destroyed lives when they were fighting in the city.
On the other hand, he had built a town without crime, pain, and conflict!
“You would know better if you have been to other settlement towns. The rich are selfish, and the poor are lazy. It might seem like everyone has their freedom, but are their lives different from being captive in a prison? Are they really better than Prison Mountain?” Lu Kun pressed confidently.
“A splendid speech, no wonder you can disguise yourself as a successful entrepreneur. It sounds like you have completely merged with your disguise!” Mo Fan gave Lu Kun a round of applause.
