I think I'm starting to understand, but I'm afraid of getting bogged down in semantics. So you don't assign a "good" or "bad" value to a certain act and/or don't think morality exists at all? Now I understand your reasoning for killing Mr. X, and it may just be the way you explained it, but your actions seem to hold no emotional weight, which feels really foreign to me. So let's say you compared the pros and cons, you decided that killing Mr. X would be the most beneficial decision and you followed through. How would you say you would feel after killing a man? For me, ending a life would instinctively feel bad, which makes sense because I think a lot of my morals come directly from instinct. In my mind, I would be able to rationalize my actions because Mr. X was an evil man, I just earned 10 million dollars and possibly saved lives. However I would probably still feel bad for ending a man's life. So what would you call that instinctively bad feeling I experience?
