The fact that heroes don't die is what actually makes them threatening, so as long as killing the king stops them from coming back to life the awakened can be stopped even if they go on a rampage.

That's still basically committing genocide though, if all of humanity really has been turned into them.

Well, the only real humans left, unless there are more on other continents or something, are Helck and the nobles. I dunno about the one's who retained their sense of self, so far the worst we've seen of them that can't be traced to orders from the king is that they're mad with power, maybe they can be reasoned with, especially if they can actually be threatened with death. Stopping them from rampaging around doesn't necessarily mean killing them.
The awakened who've gone really insane are no different from monsters though, they're really not qualified to be considered to be who they were before.
Or maybe it can be mostly reversed. :shrug:

Why do you think the nobles were spared? No one involved gave a gently caress about propping up the useless nobility. We even saw that fat noble get awakened by the snow, so he was probably told that it wouldn't affect him.
I just assumed that they were fine since they were in on it from the beginning but you're probably right. Helck's not really the most typical example of the human species either.

Can't wait until Helck goes berserk and attacks Vamirio only to get his rear end kicked back to sanity.

Vamirio is so cool.

I do not believe in Piuy.
He was the king this whole time. Definitely.

A creature that sleeps very little and practically never gets irritated whenever he's woken up by Helck talking or from Vamirio's reactions. That's what Piuy is.
The truth has been revealed.

The thread title is still incredibly appropriate.
