I finished writing this story. A few more chapters and it will end. I will upload the next chapter on saturday if not earlier.

Crimson Dust: Decision

Cealus relayed us the message and Nan Gong Zui suggests to ask Cealus after they capture him.

Everyone proceeds to attack him but I stand ther frozen /Is it really okay to capture him? Didn't he just tell us that all they want is to be free?/

Cealus vanishes without anyone capturing him.

„Prince, would you please explain the situation to us?" Winter Triumph wonders.

Prince looks at Kenshin and Sunshine „Well..."

„Allow me to explain!" Lolidragon appears behind us.

„Lolidragon!" prince exclaims surprised.

„The Dictator of Life is the game's final boss. There are many boss ranked NPCs who developed self-awareness through their high level of intelligence, the most serious of these cases is that of the Dictator of Life. He has the ability to evolve, and is capable of altering the game itself" Lolidragon states before everyone.

I grip my fist while she and the rest continue to talk /So what? Then they are self-aware and want to live, what about it?/

I'm startled away from my thoughts by Prince shout of how he won't let either of them disappear.

„Then what do you plan to do? Kill the Dictator of Life?" Kenshin wonders.

I flinch at that, I don't want that.

„That's right!" Prince yells.

„If killing others is the sole purpose of my existence," Kenshin tells him „I am willing to accept death"

At that we are told that Kenshin and Sunshine are NPCs.

„Lolidragon, we must absolutly defeat the Dictator of Life!" Prince tells her.

„Didn't I just say we have no way of doing that?" Lolidragon counters.

„What if..." Gui draws the attention to him „we made use of the program created by the Dictator of Life? HD can erase a player's character data, so, if we slightly modify HD, we can change it to ND, NPC Destroyer"

„ND?" Lolidragon voices out „Turn his own program against him? That might actually be possible..."

I see where this is going and decide to state my mind „You know..." they turn to me „I won't help you if you plan to kill him. I will go now!"

I turn around and leave with Kaikishoku, Flower and 3 o'clock behind me.

„Wait, Dust!" Prince calls after me but I pretent to not hear him.
