Prior to Jack’s entire adjustment to savagery, through the use of analogy, he depicts hunting “as if ones not hunting but being hunted; as if something’s behind one all the time in the jungle.” A parallel is established between it and the beast. The action of killing, essentially undesirable according to civil requirements, is related with extreme evil. It conveys the intrinsic malice in Jack, as he acknowledges murder would be forbidden in a society with structure and order. Even though it does not exhibit itself in a possible form at the beginning, it displays a remorseful conscious that surfaces when they permit their intuitive evil to emerge. Assuredly, the beast’s existence and the anxiety against it is what shift them to being savage. Additionally, the loss of innocence in the boys is discovered when the beast is in substantial condition as the Lord of the Flies. Simon is shown to be the most perceptive although innate evil takes over him. He fails to recognise his potential to bring back the boys to civilisation and order, exhibited in the assembly to discuss the presence of the beast. Simon was obliged to speak but declined his message “Maybe, he said hesitantly, "maybe there is a beast." "What I mean is.....maybe it's only us." "We could be sort of...." through uncertainty in his tone of voice. As a consequence, the lord of the lies is an explicit indication of the strength of evil; which provokes humans to fall under destruction. Jacks tribe relentlessly murders Simon who they think is the beast. The only boy who understands the beast lies within human complexion is murdered, embodies that evil is an inevitable aspect of living
