Rebirth in the Apocalypse: Third Time's a Charm-Chapter 360 Hamburger Vs Filet Mignon

"I am sorry," said Violence as she looked at the man in front of her. She could see Wang Chao fighting hard for possession of the body, but War was not willing to give up his control. "Only the Queen can make that call."

"And we all know that she can't bring herself to kill anyone. Always was too weak," sneered War as he pushed Wang Chao into the back of their mind.

"Li Dai Lu!" came a yell from outside the RV. "Get your ass out here! Why did you kill everyone?!?"

"You were saying?" asked Violence as she stood up and walked toward the door. She was impressed and happy when the other three men followed her out.

"Had to have been you. No way that girl could pull off killing someone," said War stubbornly.

"Hate to burst your bubble, but I had nothing to do with it," smiled Violence over her shoulder as she came to a stop in front of a woman and her five men.

"Bullshit, you had nothing to do with it," snarled the woman looking like she wanted to fly across the distance and strangle her.

"Wasn't talking to you," replied Violence airily. She waved a hand in the air, and a throne was created behind her. It wasn't the same one that Li Dai Lu created out of ice but rather seemed to be made from swords. "And that is a very bad habit to get into, thinking everything is about yourself. I am pretty sure that that is one of the circles of Hell."

"It's not," said Liu Wei coming up to stand on her right. "Unless you consider them under the fraud category in that they are able to fool others, but as it stands right now, narcissism is not one of the circles."

Violence looked over her shoulder and raised an eyebrow at the man. "Are you really trying to mansplain Hell to me?" she asked, concerned.

"No," said Liu Wei looking down at her. "Merely suggesting that you might want to add an additional layer is all."

Violence studied him for a moment before turning her attention back to the group in front of her. "They were judged, and the ruling was death."

"That was not your call to make," snarled Xing Xin Ya. She had woken this morning to realize that everyone but her and her men were dead.

"It was exactly my call to make, little Fury," replied Violence as she stood up and stalked toward the other woman. "There is no one other than me to make that call, do you understand?" 𝚋𝚎ｄ𝚗ｏｖ𝚎𝚕．ｃｏ𝚖

Xing Xin Ya looked at the woman and could practically taste the blood in the air around her. "I wanted them to live," she said softly.

"Okay, then, for shits and giggles, let's say they did live. What then?" demanded Violence, returning to her throne and the three men standing around it. She didn't even bother to look to see where War was.

"What do you mean?" demanded one of the men beside Xing Xin Ya.

"I mean, how are you going to feed them? They now have a taste for human flesh. Are you going to continue to supply it to them?" asked Violence tilting her head curiously.

"I would just stop giving it to them," said Xing Xin Ya with a wave of her hand like it wasn't that big of a deal.

"Have you ever tried to just stop giving an addict what they were addicted to?" responded Violence. It appeared that humans were even dumber than what she remembered. Thank God she had long given up wanting her own life and went back to the original body. She shuttered at the idea of having to deal with such stupid people.

"It's not the same. It's just meat," replied Xing Xin Ya, not fully comprehending what was going on.

"No, it's not just meat. Unless you are saying that a hamburger is the same as a filet mignon. I mean, they are both beefs, right?"

Xing Xin Ya paused for a moment. She had never thought of it in that manner. But still, it shouldn't matter. They could just give up eating meat.

"Ah, just give up eating meat. Sure, ask anyone that has done that if it is easy or not. Or how long they were able to maintain that kind of diet. Unless you truly believe in it, there is no way that anyone would go through with it."

"But it is human meat," said Xing Xin Ya, confused.

"And? When you are starving, meat is meat, and humans are still around in large enough numbers to provide a lot of meat," shrugged Violence. "They were killed because they were never going to stop eating human meat. It is very simple. In some cases, they were also slowly dying of illnesses that went unchecked. Either way. They're dead. Deal with it."

"And what do you suggest we do with the bodies then? There are hundreds of them," asked Xing Xin Ya as she crossed her arms in front of her chest. She fully agreed that there was nothing to be done now that they were all killed, but she was not going to back down on the issue either.

"705, to be precise," answered Violence with a smile that wasn't a smile. "And if you aren't going to eat them, I suggest burning them."

"I can't burn that many people, I don't have any powers." Xing Xin Ya gritted her teeth, hating to admit that fact.

"Wood and matches worked to burn people in the olden days," interjected Liu Wei. He could tell that Violence was not handling the conversation as well as Li Dai Lu could have. But right now, Li Dai Lu needed some time to herself, and Violence offered to take over. In order to support his Queen, he needed to help this personality.

"I don't have that much wood," said the woman looking around at the four people in front of her. "Wait, wasn't there five of you? Where is the other?"

"You seem to be very concerned about my man," said Violence, and the eerie way she was looking at Xing Xin Ya was how a snake looked at prey. "Are you concerned about my man?"

War would never be her man. But Wang Chao? He was a different story. And she would not let anyone give her men undue attention.
