Answer:

Zaroff has no conscience, while Rainsford does have a conscience.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game," by Richard Connell, Rainsford is portrayed as having an inner feeling of what is right and wrong, even though he has fought in a war. Therefore, he claims that he is not a murdurer and cannot accept Zaroff's words which find murder acceptable.
