*The Demon King stood over the fallen leader, picking up the discarded sword and dagger. Slowly turning to face the remaining rogues, he issued a commanding ultimatum.*
**Demon King:** *"Run now or stand and die. Do not make me repeat myself."*
*As the System of Virtue assessed the situation, it spoke with a discernible shift in tone.*
**System Voice:** *"Swift and decisive, Demon King. However, the balance tips in the wake of your actions. Killing the leader warrants consequences."*
*The atmosphere thickened as the System of Virtue addressed the repercussions of his choices.*
**System Voice:** *"Punishment Obligation initiated. Prepare to face the consequences of your violent actions against a sentient being."*
*The Demon King's smirk faltered slightly, sensing the weight of the impending retribution. Yet, as the echoes of the System's admonishment lingered, another voice, a softer resonance, emerged.*
**System Voice:** *"But in the demise of the notorious murderer, virtue has prevailed. Notorious Elimination Reward activated. Your journey forward shall be graced with a boon, a testament to your choice to rid the realm of a threat."*
*The subtle reward offered a glimmer of assurance, a dual acknowledgment from the System of Virtue – a balance between punishment for his ruthless actions and a reward for ridding the world of a dangerous element.*
**Demon King:** *"A necessary sacrifice for the greater good. Let the consequences come; I'll face them as I forge my own path in this realm."*
*The remaining rogues, caught in the complex interplay of virtue and malevolence, now faced a Demon King whose actions carried repercussions but also hinted at a journey laden with both challenges and rewards.*
