The cannibal that I tied up was locked up in the jail that was a part of the town hall.
It was going pretty crazy but I gave it some cooked cow meat with a bit of human flesh that actually made me throw up when I was scooping it out of the pot in the kitchen.

My idea was to slowly get the creature off human flesh by giving it cow meat and eventually if it survives.. I'm not sure. It would be interesting to see what he looks like when he isn't completely covered in human blood and trying to rip my throat out with his teeth...

I walked back to the front gate and made sure to lock it.
I didn't want anyone with the same idea as me or any other creature to make there way here.

Dragging the dead bodies into a pile in the town center which seemed to be the place with the most bodies was pretty hard and really gross. But i really helped level up my strength stats which was a bonus.

The city itself want that big. It probably was only a tad bigger than a town. But it had high walls that nearly surrounded entire city.

These walls did present a bit of protection but because I have no one manning the walls, I have no clue if an enemy is nearby.

--------3 days later------------

I've finally done it!
I've cleared the entire city!
Well it wasn't that hard considering most of the buildings are crumbled to rocks, and most of the valuables that were left in the buildings are lost until I have the man power, physical strength or the actual earth power to clear the rubble and get the objects inside.

Basically every dead body, human or animal was piled up in a pile in the city square everyone of them looted and ready for me to burn.

But what about the cannibal!!
What if I told you he isn't a cannibal anymore...

Using a bucket yesterday I threw water at him, which cleaned most of the stained blood off his skin, but his hair looks like a tangled mess.

It was quicker than I thought but I now have him completely off human flesh.

He has stopped snarling and trying to claw at me through the bars of the jail he is kept in. Instead he now sits in the far Left hand corner with his head between his legs balling his eyes out.
I'm not sure if it's a side effect of not eating human flesh for a couple days but I'm hoping it has more to do with his shame of what he had become.

Over the past couple days I had been attacked by a few more small groups of cannibals but I was unable to capture anymore, I killed them all.
Doing so I believed I have finally cleared the city of the filth that eats any humanoid.

I gained a few levels and I tried my best to kill them with my stealth so it would level up quickly. By then my stats looked like-

Name- Jacob
Title- none
Level-17
Strength-187
Speed-56
Stealth- 257
Agility-35
Stamina-44
Mana-20
Intelligence-98

Popularity- -56

I don't really know what to do now..
May as well have a bonfire.
I thought as I made a tiny flame with my small amount of mana and lit the huge mound of bodies and wood from broken buildings.

I stood there as the flames grew higher, the smoke got blacker and the smell got even more foul.
