Murder - 36,500

"Is this the person you wanted me to meet?" Light asked Ryuk.
"Who are you? How did you order Ryuk around?" Light asked him with interest. He wanted to know if he could have the same authority over a shinigami as well.
Alexander smiled and waved his hand. Immediately a table and chairs appeared. "I am Alexander Maxim Universe, sit,"
Light Yagami was shocked by the show of powers. He quietly sat down, now interested in knowing who the person in front of him was.
"Tell me, Light. What is your motivation behind killing 36,500 people?" Alexander asked.
Light smiled evilly, "I knew his question was coming. My father is in the police. Since I was small, I have been seeing how crimes shape our world.
"In the beginning, there was no such thing as police because the human population was too small and any small crime was dealt with by local people. As the population grew, special divisions started to be created to catch these criminals. Crimes started to get more and more violent, more and more security was needed.
"But, why should us, tax payer's money that can feed the poor and orphans be used to house these individuals in secure facilities where they receive food and a place to sleep?
"There are, in total, 10.35 million prisoners in the world right now. This is just the official figure. Just in the United States alone, $80 billion is spent each year keeping roughly 2.3 million people behind bars.
"You know what is even pathetic, the human rights organization. Every time when violent criminals get the death sentence they march out on the streets. But they never come out when a criminal kills an innocent or even a police officer. They are as much responsible for the murder, r*pe, or robbery the criminals commit.
"Don't even get me started on the terrorists. They destroy their own countries and then blame the world. That is why, when I was given a chance, I chose to clean the world.
"I was the one who had the power and the courage to act to change what I felt was wrong instead of like those people who sit and moan and comment on the pathetic state of the world. Many people would say and I agree that no one person can get the right to judge another person's life, but then what makes chief justice any more qualified? Just because he passed an exam? I could have done that too, but I found a better and faster way.
"I have managed to make the world safer for all by eradicating wars and terror." Light was breathing heavily by the time he ended his dramatic speech. Alexander meanwhile was smoking his cigar while listening to him.
"Then why did you kill innocent people? Like those agents?" Alexander asked.
"Because they were becoming a hurdle in my way to bring peace to the world, my way of punishing the criminals." Light replied smugly.
"Then what you said about the chief justice having no power was false? Tell me, would the chief justice have killed those agents who were just doing their jobs? How does that make you any better?
"Your goals were appreciatable but your method was foolish and purely targeted for your own benefit. You have developed a god complex due to being in control of every life in the world. You just needed to write their name and they would have died.
"You asked the world governments to send you a list of all criminals right? How would you have made sure that the names they sent were real criminals and not the opponents of their tyrannical rule? You didn't think that far did you? You were just having the time of your life being praised as a god.
*Sigh*
"Anyway, your kill streak ends now. I had a talk with the Shinigami king. He is going to create a new rule in Death Note that from now on, all extra death notes need to be returned to him no matter what. All humans in contact with it would lose their memory of it and that from now on all shinigami are only allowed to kill criminals." He revealed.
Light Yagami clenched his teeth. He had a feeling that Alexander was not lying.
"Bwahahaa..." Alexander suddenly started laughing.
"Kid, you can write my name on that piece of paper as many times as you want. It can't kill me. Seriously, you think a being who can even order the maker of death note would die with it?" Alexander asked.
Light was shocked. He slowly lifted his hand and brought it up. In his hand was a small piece of paper and a tiny pencil so he could hold the paper and also write on it with one hand.
"Who are you exactly?" Light asked.
"Well, unlike you, I am really a god, whether you believe it or not doesn't matter. If you don't want to believe I am a god then just see me as a very powerful supernatural being. More powerful than regular Shinigami." Alexander said and looked at his watch.
"Ah, you will be forgetting everything about the Death Note in about five minutes. I won't be killing you, Light. Because after you die, before you go to the real hell, you will be stuck in the Shinigami world. You will be killed 36500 times. One for each person you killed. You will be killed exactly how you killed the people. That's what it means to be a human death note user." He revealed.
Light stood up from his chair angrily, "YOU!"
Alexander didn't let him speak and just made him fall asleep. "Ryuk, put him in his bed."
Ryuk obliged and got to work. Alexander was left alone there.
"You can come out now, Lawliet" Alexander spoke.
Soon a very slim, tall young man with messy black hair and dark eyes walked out from a nearby building.
"So, satisfied now?" Alexander asked.
"I won't say I am satisfied as innocents died too, but it will do for now. Even if I had caught him, prosecuting him would have been tough as I'd have to prove the existence of Shinigami and I'm sure they'd rather not show themselves to the world." Lawliet said.
Alexander looked at the young man, "You know, you could have made the world so good if you had just decided to use Light Yagami."
"But that would be bad, I do not have the power to judge another being," Lawliet replied.
"Huh, if that's the case, no one has the power to judge another human. But there is clearly no god with a court on the planet. In the end, it is still humans who judge other humans.
"The only difference between what you have done and what they are doing is that they are always politically driven. Terrorists get funded by corrupt businessmen. Corrupt politicians get saved by an even more corrupt person. There are bad people beyond the reach of police and justice.
"You could have used that power but you chose to stay a sheep in a world ruled by hungry lions.
"The human mind will always be in a constant fight between making you do what is morally right and what is practically right. The trick is to ignore both and stay logical."
"Good luck, kid. It was nice meeting you," Alexander said and got up. He had left Lawliet with a big mental reconsideration. It was indeed true that some people were out of justice's range. For example, pick any terrorist leader, or let's say Kim Jong Un.
"Do you think that light would have honestly worked with me?" Lawliet asked.
Alexander chuckled while walking away and spoke, "No, after completely wiping out the criminals, he would have started to feel like a god. You would have opposed and died by his hands. This is the reason why I am not angry at you. But worry not, the shinigami will now only target criminals."
He waved his hand and said his goodbye. The white light fell on him and he vanished from the spot.
After he was gone, all the shinigami were made to truly follow the three new laws. So, they started hunting for criminals. Light had already cleaned the world mostly but now the remaining were dying left and right too. This way, the purity of the world went to 96% automatically.
Light Yagami had lost all his memories of Death Note and what he did. He just focused on his studies and eventually became a police officer. But his sins didn't vanish and for this, Ryuk wrote his name in his death note and killed him. This way, the story of Light Yagami came to an end. It started with the Death Note and ended on a Death Note.
Lawliet on the other hand just accepted that the shinigami were going after the criminals on their own accord. So, he invested in creating large electrical hoardings in major cities that would showcase the names of the world's most wanted criminals. Surprisingly they would die due to various reasons soon after.
