But now, as he sank deeper into the deep ocean, Yan Luo could feel the weight of his actions. The weight of the countless souls he had taken, the weight of his power. He felt a growing sense of remorse, a sense of guilt that he had never felt before.
He began to understand the gravity of his existence, the consequences of his choices.
He began to see the madness and horror that lay within the deep ocean, and he realized that he could never escape it. It was part of him, part of his soul. Yan Luo began to question the reality of his existence and the morality of his actions.
The skyscrapers that reached the sky, all built with the essence of the dead. He thought he was doing the right thing, after all, he had a filter, a system that chose which souls were suitable for his city. He convinced himself that only the souls of the wicked were worthy of his city, that only the souls of the guilty could be used to build the towering structures.
He couldn't shake the feeling of unease. The once proud skyscrapers now felt like a haunting reminder of his past actions. He couldn't escape the feeling that he was wrong, that he had made a grave mistake. The city he had built, a city made entirely of souls, now felt like a prison. He was trapped, trapped in a city he had built with the essence of the dead.
Yan Luo's thoughts were consumed by guilt, and he couldn't escape the feeling that he was wrong. He had built a city with the souls of the dead, a city made entirely of the essence of the dead. He couldn't shake the feeling that he was wrong, that he was guilty.
He was the God of Death, but had he done justice to the souls he had harvested?
Had he made the right choices, or was he just another being exploiting the dead for his own gain?
The memories of his past deeds weighed heavily on Yan Luo's conscience as he roamed the desolate streets of his city. He couldn't shake the feeling of guilt and remorse that was constantly gnawing at his soul.
As the God of Death, he had harvested countless souls and used them to build his city, but was it all worth it?
Were his actions justified?
The weight of his responsibility was crushing, and he felt like he was drowning in a sea of uncertainty.
The towering skyscrapers made of souls seemed to mock him with their cold, empty gaze. The once magnificent city he had built with such pride now felt like a prison, trapping him in his own guilt and despair.
He thought back to the filter he had created to select the souls he harvested. He had only taken the souls of those he considered "bad people," but what gave him the right to make that distinction?
He was filled with self-doubt and questions that had no answers.
The truth of his actions was a burden he could no longer bear. He felt like a monster, a fraud, a usurper of life. He had built a city out of death, but at what cost? The weight of his responsibility as the God of Death was heavy, and he felt like he was drowning in a sea of grief and regret. The truth was a harsh mistress, and Yan Luo felt like he was being consumed by it.
As Yan Luo's thoughts spiraled into a vortex of introspection, he realized that it was not his place to judge who was worthy of life and who was not. He had created an empire where he acted as judge, jury, and executioner, but at what cost? He had become consumed with power, convinced that he was the arbiter of the afterlife, but what if he was wrong? The weight of his actions weighed heavily on his soul, and he could not shake the feeling that he was not the hero he had once believed himself to be.
The line between good and evil was blurred, and he couldn't help but think that perhaps people weren't as black and white as he had once believed. There was a shade of gray in every soul, a mixture of light and dark, good and evil. People weren't simply good or bad, they were complex and multifaceted, and he couldn't help but wonder if his judgment had been clouded by his own ego.
Yan Luo was filled with a sense of hopelessness and despair as he looked at the City of the Dead he had created. The towering structures made of souls felt like a monument to his own hubris, a symbol of his own moral decay. He had believed he was doing the right thing, but now he realized the truth was far more complicated. He couldn't help but feel that his actions had been misguided, and that the souls he had harvested were not as simple as he had once believed.
Yan Luo sat on his throne in the City of the Dead, deep in thought. He pondered the complexity of human nature and the delicate balance between good and evil that resided within every human being. He couldn't help but think of himself, of the atrocities he had committed in building his empire as the God of Death. He thought of the souls that made up the very fabric of his city, the skyscrapers forged from the essence of the dead.
As he gazed upon his city, he couldn't help but wonder if he was truly just, or if his actions were merely an excuse for his own dark desires. He remembered when he first awakened his system, the game-like screen that gave him the power of death. He had enjoyed the control and dominance it gave him, but now he couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered within him.
Yan Luo understood that no one was purely good or bad.
Everyone had a mixture of light and darkness, a balance of positive and negative forces. He thought about the idea that everyone was part of an interconnected cosmic system, that we were all mimicking the universe outside of us. He wondered if this was why people still believed in the devil even when they no longer believed in God or goodness.
The existence of evil was always possible, and the pursuit of goodness was an eternal struggle. He couldn't help but think that his own inner struggle between light and darkness was a microcosm of the greater struggle that existed within all of humanity.
