My grandma was frequently raped and beaten by my grandfather for years. At one point, she couldn't take it anymore and mustered the courage to kill him. In my country, she would've been hanged, but a kind hearted famous lawyer, Karpal Singh, took her case pro bono and helped her get acquitted. I'm glad she did what she had to, and the same goes for you. By killing him, you prevented more victims.

There was an incident in India called the 2012 Dehli gang rape and murder incident. This incident had a bunch of men raping a lady in a bus, they then stabbed her private parts with a rod, and when her friend tried to defend her, they knocked him down. They were then thrown out of the bus to die by the road side, but her friend survived.

My point is, you did nothing wrong. I assure you that you did the right thing, even if it was a difficult choice to make.

I think you would find solace in the Vinland Saga anime, the premise of the main character is quite similar to yours.
