The first game ends./part final.

''Why should I have to answer that huh?'' Ben responds with a face full of contempt.

He stands up and starts walking towards the god.

David looks at him as he walks away.

'Bastard! How dare you cut my arms off!?' He thinks to himself.

He pulls up the screen.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BETRAYAL:

Speaks for itself, doesn't it?

Rewards:

{One with the devils}, 10000 Sp.

Punishments:

None.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The god snaps his fingers and the giant Minotaur disappears.

Ben looks over to it and the god smiles at him.

Ben smiles back and a bead of sweat rolls down his forehead.

David moves a hand up to his face and wipes the spit out of his eyes with great effort.

''Geh...'' David breathes out a breath of pain, a bit of blood coming out of his mouth.

'Ben... How could you do this?' He thinks to himself.

As he looks at the mans back his grimace grows uglier.

'I was trying to save you! And this is how you pay me back!?'

''Hey, Isn't it over by now? Send me back.'' Ben says to the god.

The god doesn't respond, only smiles while looking down at David.

'Creepy bastard...' Ben thinks to himself.

[You'll be sent back immediately once your opponent has died.] His voice says.

'He's still not dead?' Ben thinks to himself, a bit befuddled.

'I stabbed him in the heart while he was half dead! Well, whatever...'

He walks back to David and squats down over his belly and prepares to take another stab.

''B...a...stard...'' David squeezes out before Ben gets a chance.

Ben looks over at him with a bit of shock on his face. The shock quickly turns into amusement.

''Huh? What did you say?'' Ben responds with a mocking tone.

''B...a...stard...!''

''Huh? Bastard? Me?'' Ben responds acting confused.

''Well, guess what? This bastard's killing you right now.'' He says with a smile.

'This is what I was trying to save?' David thinks to himself while looking at Ben's mocking face.

'This is what I was risking my life for!?' Waves of heat start pulsating around his body.

'For this!?' A whirlwind of heat starts coalescing around his heart.

''i'll...ki...ll..y...ou...!''

As it hears the words the smile on the god's face grows wider.

''Huh? You'll kill me? Well that's not very hero like!'' Ben responds.

''Didn't you want to be a hero? Isn't that why you did all of this? To save innocent little me?''

''B...en...''

''If you want to save me then just go ahead and die already, "Hero".''

Ben moves his knife towards David's heart once again.

''B...EN...!'' David's eyes roll into the back off his head.

*ROAR!*

The god starts laughing to itself in amusement.

Black tendrils shoot out of the knife wound in David's heart.

''What the...!?'' Ben says out loud.

The tendrils wrap themselves around the arm holding the knife.

*Crunch!*

It is pulled off by the elbow and compressed into a small ball before moving into the chest cavity and disappearing.

Ben looks down to where his arm used to be with a face of pure shock. He turns into lighting to try and run away.

*Fwoosh!*

Suddenly, hundreds of more tendrils shoot out and wrap themselves around him, every part they touch unable to transform.

''W-What the hell!?'' Ben says,drowning in fear. He struggles as best he can against the tendrils but it's no use.

''Get off me! Get off! AAAaaaah...'' He yells out.

Eventually they cover his entire body, muffling his screams.

After his entire body is covered they stop for a second.

Ben moves his eyes around rapidly, trying to find any light in the dark space he's confined in.

'What is happening!? Please! Go-'

*Crunch!*

The tendrils contract, instantly turning Ben's entire body into a small ball and moving it back into David's chest.

The god once again chuckles to itself with a mad face before disappearing.

The world fades out, then fades back in.

[You did it. You survived somehow. I can't believe it...] The voice says to David.

David finds himself sitting down on the deck of his ship, looking Jingfei in the face. They both stare at each other in confusion for a few seconds.

''No! Don't disappear!'' Tommy cries out, breaking them out of their stupor.

They both turn their heads to look at the crying boy.

''Y-You're not going to disappear...?'' Tommy says while choking down his tears.

''H-Huh!?'' Jingfei exclaims.

David looks at him for a few seconds before answering.

''No, we already did...''

''Y-You already did?'' Tommy answers, his crying having been hampered down a little.

David takes a hand to where the knife wound he suffered earlier would be but finds nothing.

'What is happening?' He asks the voice.

[While time moved in the other world no time passed in this one, also, all injuries sustained were healed.]

'C-Crazy...' David thinks to himself.

Jingfei stands up without saying a word and walks off into the deck.

''H-Huh!? Jing!'' Tommy says and runs after.

David looks at them as they walk off.

After that he stares at the ground for a few seconds before getting up himself and walking into the captains quarters and taking a seat.

'So I did it? I killed him?' He asks.

[Yes, you killed him. Good job.] The voice praises.

David looks down in to the table and tears start rolling down his face.

'I'm trash... I don't deserve to live...'

[Trash! Are you crazy!? If there's anyone that's trash it's that guy you killed!]

'...'

[He betrayed you.] The voice says.

'Ben...'

As he thinks back to the betrayal his mind grows a bit clearer.

[He tried to kill you and you killed him back. Nothing wrong with that.]

'...'

[Some people don't deserve to live, you know?]

'...Yeah.' The tears flowing down his face stop.

'Some people... Don't deserve to live.' He thinks to himself.

'People like Ben, That goddamn god... The pirates that litter this planet...'

'They're the ones who are trash.'

''Hahahahah...'' He laughs to himself.

''I've been stupid haven't I?'' He says, tilting his head up towards the roof.

[You sure have. You're lucky to even be alive.] The voice responds.

'Maybe some people... Just need to die?'

As he says that he brings a halberd out of his inventory and moves towards the prison cells.

[Don't kill them! They are more useful as offerings!]

'...'

'Right, it would be wasteful to kill them like this...'

He puts the halberd back into his inventory but keeps walking towards the cells.

[Y-You're not thinking...!]

He arrives at the cell holding Urouge and apoo and walks up to Urouge, who is sitting in the middle of the cell, bound by a chain to the wall.

''Well, what do we have here?'' Urouge says while looking at David with his usual smile.

David responds by putting his hand on Urouge's chest, where his heart is.

[This is not a good idea!] The voice reprimands.

His palm starts heating up and he feels that now familiar feeling moving up his arms.

Urouge's smile fades and turns into a frown.

''So you're killing me right here...'' He says, with an accepting face.

Apoo, who is sitting in the corner of the cell with cloth wrapped around his mouth looks on with a serious expression.

David pulls his hand back...

*Stab!*

...And stabs it int Urouge's chest.

''Gah!'' Urouge yells out in pain, his eyes widening in surprise as he looks at David.

David wriggles his hand around until he finds Urouge's heart, and grabs it.

Urouge looks down at David's arm and then looks back into David's face. In his last moments, a smile wider than ever before can be seen on his face.

''You have cold hands.'' He says, knowing those words will be his last.

The feeling reaches David's palm and Urouge turns into a glowing powder, which then moves into his chest.

Apoo looks on with a flabbergasted face, his eyes wide open.

''Mmmph! Mmmph!''

As the powder flies into his chest, a shadow jumps up into his forehead.

He tries to catch it with his hand but it moves right through.

'What the hell?'

It moves itself into David's brain.

The world fades out then fades back in as David finds himself in a familiar space.

''The virtual training room?'' He says.

[You've done it now...] The voice responds.

As he looks forward he sees some kind of black smoke with a pair of red eyes floating around in the middle of it.

''Devourer...'' It says to David.

''Devourer? Are you talking about me?''

''You wretched creature, scourge upon life... I will kill you while you are still weak...''

The creature says.

It's body spreads out over the space, covering it in dark fog.

''What the hell is going on now?'' David says annoyedly.

Suddenly, a grey thorn shoots out of the fog and hits David's body.

*Plonk!*

[!!!]

It hits his chest and bounces off, like a nail thrown at an iron wall.

[Of course!]

''Huh? What's this?'' David says.

''H-How could this be!'' The creature yells out.

David picks up the thorn and turns it into golden powder.

''N-No! I have to escape!''

The fog suddenly disappears and the creature moves up into the sky.

''Huh? You're not getting away.''

David says before jumping into the air, reaching the creature almost instantly and grabbing into the smoke with his hand.

''Feels like jelly...'' He thinks, grabbing on to something tangible in the middle of the smoke.

''N-No! Let me go!''

''Now why would I do that?'' David responds, circulating the heat around his body.

''P-Please I'm sorry! I-I swear-''

*Poof!*

The creature turns into glowing powder, which covers David's body. He is then returned to the real world.

'What the hell was that?'

[That was a devil.] The voice explains, with a stoic feeling.

'And what is that?'

[A devil is a mental creature. On this world they live inside of the devil fruits, where they invade human bodies by consumption. If that old man in the virtual training room didn't destroy and restructure your soul you would have been dead.]

'...And why did it attack me?'

[...]

'And it called me a devourer... Can you explain that?'

[...]

'Of course not... Well, whatever.'

He moves towards apoo, who looks at him with a fearful expression.

''Mmph! Mmm mmmph!''

He ignores his cries and moves his hand towards apoo's chest.

''MMMM!''

The cloth in apoo's mouth turns red and his eyes roll back into his skull.

'What the-'

*Splat!*

Suddenly, something black bursts out of apoo's chest and flies up into the ceiling.

David tries to grab it again but is unable.

[Use the ability!] The voice yells out.

David circulates the force through his hand and tries to capture the creature again, but the creature flies through the roof of the cell before he can touch it.

''Fuck!'' He yells out and runs out on to the deck.

''D-David?'' Jingfei, who is now sitting on the deck, hugging Tommy exclaims in surprise.

He looks up into the sky and sees the creature.

He throws of his shirt and flexes the muscles on his back.

*Burst!*

''Agh!''

Two long, bloodied, bat-like wings burst out of his back.

He flexes the muscles on his back once again.

'How the hell do I do this!?'
