A penalty will be issued? You mean like being killed by them? Duh?

"Why did I forget that?"
Wait. Nonononono. You cannot possibly be telling me you weren't expecting them to kill you. Didn't you already work this out ahead of time?

"The system is forcing me to murder."
It's a pet peeve of mine when people mistake the word 'murder' for 'kill'. Killing people in self-defense who are trying to one-sidedly murder you is not 'murder', it's just 'killing'.

"If you don't kill the people trying to murder you, you will die."
Omg, the system is all dark and edgy and stuff, how terrible. It's not like this is just basic survival vs. human greed or anything like that. Gotta dramatize.

Drama of him needing to kill 8 people who tried to feed him to a spider and are trying to kill him off as something bad purely because the system said his heart will stop if they don't die. News flash you will die anyways if you don't kill them and the system only made it apparent.

@08914 The requirement to kill them all is also saying "Don't show mercy even if they surrender or stop being a threat," is what I'm taking from this. It's "self defense" right now, but it'll probably become "murder" before he's done with them all because really, I can't imagine every single one of these guys going down without begging for their lives. So even if he wanted to capture and bring any of them that surrender out so they can be arrested... that'd just fail the quest, and he gets to have coronary failure for his troubles.

Murderers getting murdered seems like poetic justice and all, but at least in my country, doing so is still a crime. It wouldn't be unreasonable if he considers it a moral dilemma when shifting gears from self defense to just killing them because something only he can see told him his heart will stop if he doesn't. Try telling that to the courts, I guess you can go for the insanity plea haha.
