Avila just watched as all of this took place. She didn't realize how much Yuki had faked his personality while he was inside the kingdom as now that she was seeing the real version of him, she was almost frightened of him.

"So, how did the payment process go?" Yuki asked Scar as he didn't want to deal with the stares of the other customers at the bar. Hearing Yuki's question, Scar just smiled as he put up a peace sign.

"We've got ourselves a room," said Scar as he went in for a high five with Yuki. While at first Yuki was reluctant, he eventually succumbed to it and put his palm up to high five Scar.

...

While Yuki and Scar continued to talk, a tall man came up behind Scar and grabbed him in a headlock. Due to him being invisible until the very point where he touched Scar, no one could have suspected a thing.

"I've got your weak friend now. Get on the ground and beg for mercy or he'll die. I know that he's weak because the strong aren't so childish," the man who had Scar in a headlock said arrogantly.

Seeing the attitude which the man had, Yuki assumed that he was from the group who he had just humiliated and he was here to restore their honour.

"I'm sorry to break it to you but... he's actually 6 levels higher than me," said Yuki with a straight face. As fear engulfed the man with the ability which allowed him to turn invisible, Yuki just stood there and watched as he awaited the events which would shortly follow with anticipation.

"Who are you talking to?" Scar asked with a confused face which Yuki answered by pointing his index finger as the hand which had Scar in a headlock.

"We're being attacked?! Why didn't you tell me? Although I should've felt him when he touched me, I guess he really must be very weak," said Scar as forcibly removed the hands which were grasping at his neck. As he did this, Scar unknowingly broke a couple of the invisible man's fingers.

"Now that has been taken care of, how about we head into the room which we'll stay in for the night," said Scar as he began to walk towards the stairs which were near the back of the bar. Behind him were Yuki and Avila who followed him up the stairs into the room which they would be staying in.

Once inside, Avila just stood there frozen in place as she nervously prepared to ask Scar something.

"Umm, why aren't there any other rooms in here?" Avila asked as she wondered why such an expensive room didn't have more than a single room.

"Don't worry missy, me and Yuki will sleep on the floor while you sleep on the bed," said Scar as he pointed towards a dirty looking single bed.

"You don't mind sleeping on the floor do you, Yuki? After all, you're quite known throughout the deeper community of dungeon raiders as the player who camps in the dungeon," Scar said as he expected the obvious answer from Yuki.

"No I don't mind, she can take the bed," Yuki replied which led Scar to smile and give a thumbs up to Avila who just had a disappointment and disgusted face as she walked over to the dirty tiny bed before laying on it only too see a cockroach come out of the side of the bed as it climbs the wall in front of her.

"What has my life come to," said Avila as she tried to stop herself from crying.historical

As Yuki laid on the ground on his own, Scar got up to turn off the light before returning to sleep on the other side of the room, opposite to where Yuki was sleeping.

"Goodnight everyone,"

said Scar to which only Avila replied to by saying "Goodnight" herself.

...

After a while, Scar called out to Yuki in the middle of the night to see if he was awake.

"Hey, Yuki, are you still awake too?" Scar asked.

...

"Yes... what do you need from me?" Yuki asked in an annoyed voice.

"Now that I don't need to continue acting anymore. You should know that I'm afraid of you, or more specifically the power you have. That's the only reason why I am acting so friendly with you. If it was not for that, I would've killed you already," said Scar as his tone changed to be more serious.

"Yes I know, I don't really care. As long as you don't get in my way then we won't have a problem. However, I do believe that what you said also had some missing information in it. You're also only acting friendly towards me because you know that wherever I am, it's going to be the safest place in the world, no... the entire multiverse and whatever is beyond that," said Yuki which Scar replied back to with an agreeing "ah-huh".

"However, I should ask this of you at least, why did you insist on bringing this girl along with us? She's just a set back and you, more than anyone should know that," said Yuki as he didn't understand what benefit Avila brought to their group.

"Yes, of course I know that she's basically useless. I only brought her along so that a romance between you and her could build up and then you could finally let go of your stupid ideology," said Scar.

"You really are stupid," Yuki replied.

"What do you mean?! You and her are about the same age so I did the best I could do... but seriously, why do you want to get stronger? You do realize that you can get anything you want before you even think of it, or at least that's what my ability says you think about. But if that's true, why don't you just create a perfect world where you personally oversee every part of its development. That's what you want right? And don't even talk about satisfaction or all those lies because you know damn well that you could ask Zero to give those feelings because he's able to do that," said Scar as his voice grew more irritated after each word he said.

"To be perfectly honest, I didn't understand why I was doing all of this myself until a few days ago. The real reason which I created this world is because I don't want to let go of the one thing which seems real to me. Creating this world was the final way for me to feel human once again," Yuki said.

"Then why create this world instead of staying in the previous world...." Scar asked before his voice trailed off as his ability allowed him to read Yuki's thoughts showed him what led Yuki to get control over Zero.

"...You took your own life?" Scar asked in a weird tone which had both a frightened sound along with a disgusted and pitying sound to it as well.

"Yup. If I just sent myself back into that world without any of my powers, I would just face the same torment and humiliation daily. However, if I took my powers there with me, I would quickly get hunted by the government so they could research me and overall just cause me more harm than good. Either way, it would end up in me losing," Yuki replied.

"How did it end up that bad?" Scar asked as he wondered what could cause someone so young to take their own life.

"I used to think that everything which took place in the past was because the world was cruel to me but having lived in this world, I realize that many of the things which took place and caused me to take my own life could've been avoided if I had just been smarter in those situations. I used to be so self absorbed and pathetic, just a little personality change would have allowed me to live a better life as a normal teenager.

"So why not turn back time and return the world to how it used to be before you change it into this. With that, you could have the perfect like your wish to attain now," said Scar.

"You've got it all wrong, this is my perfect life. Even though it's hell every single day, I still enjoy living it since I could stop doing everything I do now and retire whenever I want. I don't have to worry about getting a job or having to deal with people who are older than me who like to abuse the power they hold over me. In this world, I can truly be free," said Yuki as he smiled while looking at the wall in front of him.

As for Scar, he noticed the wording which Yuki had used, that being that he said "free" instead of "happy". While it was a tiny difference, it was enough to cause a change in thought depending on which context it was used in. For the current one, it did make a difference however it would only be that way if Yuki was being careful with his wording.
