Carl's Doomsday Scenario (Dungeon Crawler Carl, #2)

by Matt Dinniman

We’re supposed to be making the world… the universe… a better place for our children. If it’s not better, if you’re dealing with cruelty, with neglect, then you should do something about it. So, yeah. Fuck ‘em. Fuck King Rust and his asshole child. If you’re unhappy with your government, then kick them out and set up your own, one that represents the people’s best interests. You shouldn’t have to put up with some loser who’s going to take the people’s money and waste it on games, especially when those games entail killing people weaker than him with little or no real danger to himself. What a pussy. That’s my opinion.”

“All of you. If a government is afraid of what its people say, then maybe there’s a reason for it.”

I felt a sudden wave of anger wash over me. Now you’re outraged? When it was your friend?

just overwhelming. I didn’t dare say it out loud, but what the hell? They destroyed us, destroyed our planet. And one poorly-shot missile or whatever the hell it was, and suddenly it’s a tragedy. Fuck you. Fuck you all.

I should’ve remained true to myself. We all die anyway. How can we make it to heaven if god doesn’t recognize us?”

It was as if they didn’t care about the plight of the city, as long as the damage remained on the ground.
