Nyx: Crap.. my head hurts.
An hour ago, I found this scythe after beating that wolfman. It suddenly respawned inside the violet-lit room. Because it looks cool, I made it as my primary weapon. Upon receiving the item, there was a black flame engulfing me and disappearing immediately after that. Next, there were these demons, hundreds of them, blocked my path of escaping. With the scythe, I destroyed the little fucks in order to create a path for me to walk through. Whenever these demons get damaged by it, they all get reduced to ash.
It's a pretty good weapon all in all, but there's one problem.
The scythe... talks.
Scythe: (Heeeey, you've been using me for quite a while now..)
Nyx: (Yeah, we're in a fucking demon horde and you're the only one who can destroy them.)
I ordered him to speak with me.. telepathically so it won't freak them out.
Scythe: (Heeey, aren't you going to give a name to me?)
Nyx: (Why? Did your last owner gave you a name?)
Scythe: (Haha, yeah. He doesn't speak with me when we're battling someone, but he's a pretty good guy. He kept guarding that room for quite a while now, he says he doesn't want anyone getting me.)
Nyx: (Oh, umm, I'm sorry.)
Scythe: (Doon't, he said he's only guarding it so that if anyone beats him, he knows that I'm in good hands.)
Nyx: (Then, ok, what was the name that your previous owner gave you?)
Scythe: (Don't call him my owner, he's my friend. Not my owner.)
Nyx: (Ok, then what's your name?)
Scythe: (Skree.)
Nyx: (That's a really bad name.)
Skree: (Hey!)
Chris: Uhhh, Nyx?
Nyx: Yeah?
Chris: You've been staring and smiling at that scythe for quite a while now..

Nyx: Uh, no, it's just that the weapon I found is really cool.
Chris: Also, that weapon is really strange. See, it isn't a hallow, but it still keeps reducing them to ash, which is something that only hallows can do. The aura surrounding it is...
Nyx: Wait, let's talk about that later. Xiel, are you ok?
Xiel: *huff* Yeah..
I managed to find the 4 of them in the 5th floor. I was also in the floor when I felt shaking on the ground. I didn't really pay heed because I was busy slicing demons. I almost used the stone to get out because the demon horde was still coming and coming, it doesn't seem like the demons that comes in the dungeon will stop anytime soon, but, you know, I wanted to check the other route to see if I could find an armor that matches the scythe.
Nyx: (Hey, is the entrance still far away?)
Skree: (Nah, it's right around the corner.)
Nyx: (Riight, thanks.)
*Still slicing up demons*
Ahh, the sun. I haven't missed you at all. Dark spaces are kinda what I'm used to, after all, I spent centuries inside my room without eating. Damn, I wanna go back and play, but this world isn't so bad..
Ah, there's no more demons..?
The question was easily answered when I finally reached outside..
Kiie: Ooooooooh, some real cuties went out the dungeon! Should I punish you as well~
Fuck. Fuck. I'm going back.
Kiie: Heey, heey~ I was just kidding.
The scythe.. folded? Then it went inside my body, and kinda just stayed.. there.
Skree: (Hey, don't worry about me, you could always call me through here. I'm not very familiar with the sun so I'm just going to stay in here.)
wow, me too, man. me too.

Nyx: (Vor seems.. uneasy.)
Skree: (Vor? That's the name of your brother right? The one that always kept nagging you, you said?)
Nyx: (Yep, that's him.)
Skree: (Ah, neat.)
...............
A month has passed. We were all assigned in the same team, so I got assigned with the same retards. Xiel and Reus, they're alright but it seems like they have problems communicating with us. On the other hand, Chris and Vor.. I don't know how the hell have they survived this far.
All in all, this is pretty.. fun?? naah, 50-50.
We were sent on another dungeon raid again, when something unusual happened.
Xiel: Hey, hey, Nyx? Mind if I talk to you about something?
Nyx: Yeah? What is it?
Xiel: Silly question, really. You see, I've been visiting you every night on your room.
Nyx: Uhh, isn't that invasion of privacy?
Xiel: Yeah, but who's going to stop me? Haha, no, no, not that.
Wait, I've played enough dating simulators. I know this scene.. she, she's going to confess?
Xiel: Nyx, I...I can't take it anymore. I need to say it...
Skree: (Oh shit, Nyx, I've been listening.. nice.)
Nyx: (Y-yeah, ...shut up.)
Nyx: *gulp* Yeah.. what is it?
Xiel: ....Are you immortal?
Nyx: (What.)
Skree: (lmao.)
Nyx: What.
