Nature is Nature

As Zackrow said it, the group of fully conscious people yet slightly weirded atmosphere turned their head towards the ripped gate of space, or should be preferably called "Janus".

"Let us first transfer them to a infirmary room, so that a healer could attend them." Said Zackrow looking worried.

Yet after saying that, the others still didn't budge an inch. 'What a troublesome fellow to have tsk-.'

After looking at them, Zackrow then snap his finger, a creaking sounds echoes throughout the nearby people, making them cover their ears in pain. As such a dark aura mist slowly climbs up through the body of Zackrow. 'Thankfully, he's still weak to completely overpower [Wrath].'

Then the Dark aura then slowly moves through the air reaching each one of the conscious that had been affected by the [Transgression of Lust]. As the dark aura then injects itself into the party, making them shots up a little while still covering their ears in agony.

The dark mist then whispers to each one of them. Saying the one they most feared the most.

[Just die, they dont even like you. Even after all those years that you've been with them, they still didn't think of you as a comrade that can be trusted-] Shin Bone, then frustratedly smack his head. [Baaang!]

'I've already knows it, bu-t but i still wanted to trick myself into not believing that its not true. 'Cause they're the only thing that i can protect with, even if it means sacrificing my life to them.' Shin bone thinking to himself after hearing the whispers.

"He's still tricking himself huh. What a man, but it can't be stayed that long. Well guess what it is, i dont care." Zackrow without even batting an eye.

As the dungeon system then notifies them saying. [Dungeon is beginning its countdown in 10 minutes, rest and leave adventurer after this short rest. Goodluck!]

Reading this notification makes more sense than him waiting for his other party members from snapping out of [Lust] control.

"Aggh! I hate it when i have to wait fuck!. Well let me at least see this new artifact description." Zackrow cursed as he takes out the newly acquired artifact.

After reading the long-ass explanation of the artifact, Zackrow lets out a sigh of relief, as he put his hands in his chin. "That was quite a long-ass explanation for a mere D-rank artifact. Well it can still be improve through grinding it up, but i dont have respect nor integrity. We can still sell it in a hefty price 'cuz of it being a growth-type artifact."

[Imaginary World]

As he was left thinking into at what he would do to the artifact. Ucho or better known as Ankh, was left looking through the void of the screen in the imaginary world.

"Hmm... Hmm..." while still nodding his head back and forth, and suddenly raise its hand onto the back of his head. "Maybe not, why the hell was it change again fuck! fuck! fuck! I've would need to look onto the end again. But it was so tiresome. Hey, wanna know more?"

Saying it to the next person, her expression says that she is disgusted, annoyed, and tired. She probably had to deal a blowing punch of new knowledge. But this is the most shocking, than her being disgusted, annoyed and tired, she was able to retain her memories even after the author took the ink and starts to write again.

"Is it really true? that those mighty being has a creator or something like that? and i may be look erotic but im quite subjective you know, so stops staring at me and just answer it."

She hiss erotically, but to no avail Ankh just look at her more thoroughly, he just keeps pondering at how she was able to retain it, even him have to die 100 millions of times or so just to have an awareness of just being a fictional characters to a higher dimensional being that lived in the neutral world.

Then a sudden thought comes by, and then he arrives to a conclusion. 'Maybe the author is awares and was using this exact time to build the lore of the series, but why? and she seems to only retain her memories and not aware of it being fictitious character... if he just stick to that crap of a first story then he can still retain the old lore. Like the D#ag## of un##eced###ed, The majin of Qlippoth or the most interesting and the most dangerous one, of course in my current state, The Omen of the lowest good and evil. Him having an interesting lore and was just a weakling was underwhelming to be honest.'

As he ponder and ponder more, the person who has retain her memories was agitated seeing him just staring at her and ignores her completely. She then shouted an ear-splitting cry"[Keuuuuuhk!]" as she then began to walk towards him. And talks in a forethought way. "Why wont you tell me. I am asking 'cuz its a piece that i wanted to hear."

After considering and was reaching the climax of his conclusion, Ankh then look at the walking erotic woman "Lofn" the avatar of the [Transgression skill of lust] who resides into a much lower dimensions of the neutral world.

'Why not tell her, and it's not like she can do anything to me anyways. And i dont really care for a low-level information anyways' Ankh then look at her in her own eyes then said. "If you really wants it, why dont you give me an extra service. It was all a give and take, compromise you name it. D. E. A. L?"

Ankh says without a care as he looks at her body. 'Originally i was a rapist who was base on Zeus, murderer base on Harold shipman, cunning and brutal base on jack the ripper and as miserable as Uruma shun of Juujika no rokunin. I'll always be true to myself and the nature of myself and the already predetermined background of my life. And even in this moment I won't falter nor hesitate.'

Even though it was quite rude to ask that, Lofn was not that surprised she already expected this in one of her 'what if' and she's not that disgusted anyway cuz nature is nature, you can't change something that was already laid out in the beginning of your creation. "Deal."

This day marks the day that self nature can't be changed even if it was forceful or was predetermined in the beginning. It was bound to happen as they were merely a fictional characters in the shittiest novel ever.
