“If you grow up Grow up to be a virtuous person.”

Those were the words he had heard since he was a child.

So what does the word 'virtue' mean? Goodness?

Or is it just a word that humans concoct to praise themselves?

He pondered as he looked at the evening sky that was supposed to be the orange color of the sun. Among the many people who are sending The sound of shouting went to a place. Those sounds were filled with satisfaction and joy.

If being a virtuous person would be praised Then that man could probably be considered a virtuous person.

The man who was the target of people

The man who was drenched in 'red'

and that man About to wield a sword at the 'neck' of a person.

The rain began to fall down. And soon it will become a big downpour. But the sound of the rain did not drown out the voices of the people. He felt a stream of water on his face. He was looking at the sky. If you feel the rain, it's not strange.

“Are you prepared to die, sir?”

Even though that water is many times warmer than the rain.

“If I answer no, Are you willing to let me go? Hero.”

What a shame. The last thing he would see was not the sky as the sun set. He closed his eyes.

“Heh, does an evil person like you have the right to choose?”

“You probably don't have any orders. Oh, people like you shouldn't have any orders.”

And then the man swung his sword down. Splashes of blood Dye everything red The same color as his hair

Pain shot through his body. Just for a moment That he won't feel anything again.

That was wrong. The last thing he saw was not the gray sky.

But it's the brown shoes of a hero.

Even in the last second He still doesn't know. What exactly is morality?

TALK :

This short story was actually a short story written by Wright to send to a teacher on the topic 'Morality'. It was 2 pages long, but it didn't seem to be relevant to the topic, so it was returned. But Wright quite liked this story so he tried to upload it. Because this is the first novel that I have published, there may be some mistakes. Please feel free to criticize.

Anyway, thank you very much to everyone who came to read!
