When the creature finds about Victors death, he is stunned because his creator is dead and feels that it has no reason to live anymore, and should suffer the same fate as Victor did. When Walton enters the room of Victors deceased body, he is suprised to see the creature crying over Victors body. The creature turns to Walton and says, "I have murdered the lovely and the hopeless; I have strangled the innocent as they slept, and grasped to death his throat who never injured me or any other living thing." (Shelley, 190)
This quote can relate to how the British Empire hurt a lot of innocent people in order to just gain more land, and power.
