I don't feel like the guy who's murdered thousands of relatively innocent people for his own "grudge against the world" deserves a happy ending

Also why's the demon chick not murdering the shit out of the guy who killed her dad?

First one depends on how the Author is going to continue writing him and the rest of the executioners, and the last one is because it would break some kind of rule I guess? Or maybe she is starting to have some doubts about killing?

@Crombs

To be clear, he murdered them following the law. Which doesn't necessarily make it better. But does make it more than his "grudge against the world".

Also why's the demon chick not murdering the shit out of the guy who killed her dad?

I mean, she's just as guilty as him and the rest of murdering shit tons of people. She already explained previously that she's been a member of the gatekeepers far longer than she was with her dad.
Also, if she killed him then it would be like admitting the families of everyone she's ever killed for the law, has the right to come after her.

The big point is. They weren't just beaten. Their ideology. Their adherence to this law that they believed was great. That was beaten as well. And she's struggling to cope with that.

Thank you for your work

I was under the impression that the author spent the last few chapters explaining that he doesn't personally care about the law, he was just using it as a convenient (and somehow legal) method of getting his revenge

As for Demon Chick, fair. Not as salty about her.

I just have trouble taking the panels showing a happy mass-murderer joining his accepting mass-murderer family seriously, from a reader point of view

Roy's transformation has a transformation.
Man i wonder what is even his final form.

@Crombs the ones that don't really care about the law and are using it just to get their kicks off are Great and Stanley, Stanley in particular reveals this when he kills Joy's father, Joy (demon chick) doesn't knows this yet in her eyes everyone is just following the rules.

Great probably cares a bit about the rules but more from an absolute power jungle law point of view, in which to him the strong should lord over everyone else, and everyone else either bows or gets stomped.

Jeanne hated himself as we learned this chapter, and his enforcement of the law was as a form to validate his own existence by lethally pointing out the flaws in everyone else.

Drian didn't care about the rules either, but rather than getting a kick out of murder, his role was just an excuse for him to be able to challenge Great and in doing so find a way to connect to someone in battle since that's all he knew.

After this battle, Drian knows that his way of life is unhealthy, Joy knows that there are more subtleties to life than blindly following the law and that morality has shades of grey rater than hard contrast of black and white, Jeanne knows that it is ok to be monster and by not being so harsh on himself he can be less harsh on the world, and Stanley... he remains a piece of shit... he actually didn't learn shit from this.
