After the incident of Daniel, Ervas and Veronica owned their family and friends a big explanation of what was happening right now… Although they did not accompany them originally, Jason and Anna had joined them later on in their exploration, this is why they were with them despite having started the dungeon exploration without them.
Using everything they had, both of them tried to explain as best as they could what had actually happened with them and the little ant… From how ridiculous and hilarious was to find a reincarnated person from their same original world in here just by casualty, and how the former best friend of the Hero ended as a mere ant for some strange reason…
The party sat down around a large bonfire while grilling the claws of Armored Crabs that they had hunted previously… the meat of Pete was rather unsavory, and only Veronica gulped it down due to her gluttony and that she did not possess a stomach to have indigestion.
Of course, Aqua, and the other monsters made a feast of it, while Pete seemed a bit uncomfortable when glancing at such a thing, so he was sent inside of Veronica's armor before he was to see more of his own corpse being eaten.
As the giant metallic claws began to boil, Veronica easily cracked them with her metallic claws and opened the delicious and boiling fatty meat inside, although these were monsters, their meat seemed as aromatic as real crabs. The party began a small feast of giant crab claws alongside tea and wine for the adults. Meanwhile, Ervas, Lilith, and her sisters drank wyvern blood.
"All of this feels… So… I don't know how to put it… Very unexpected?" said Jason.
"It was, it was very unexpected, we were caught off guard and our emotions became very unstable…" said Ervas.
"We almost ended up giving the bastard what he wanted the most…" said Veronica.
"First of all, you two can curse?! Second, how?!" asked Anna, who after having given her opinion over the topic talked previously, was now curious about how did Ervas and Veronica even learn how to curse.
"We don't really know how to actually conjure a curse, what we did was simply fuse our souls, and detach a piece of it, we manipulated it through Long Distance Control, and we planted it into Daniel's soul… This soul has a little consciousness and will begin to drill into Daniel's soul whenever he dares to defy us" said Veronica.
"But because explaining all of that would be too complicated, we simply called it a curse. Also, we can't use this against an active and non-passive enemy, the foe, in particular, must be properly weakened… or we very weak compared to us to do this without being interrupted or blocked by the soul of the foe we want to 'curse'," said Veronica.
"I see… I guess it is something that only you guys would be able to do with your strange souls… Although it is not exactly the same, your 'curse' seems to be similar to the slave collars made by humans" said Anna.
"Oh, those artifacts that the humans use to enslave other species… They are special artifacts that force a Job Change into the enslaved, giving them the 'Slave' Job… Of course, it will only work in weak people or those very weakened or wounded" said Lilith.
"I am particularly against slavery of any race… But that little ant deserved it if it is truly who my son and Veronica say it to be… I would gladly crush it as well if they ask me…" said Jason with a rather serious look on his handsome face.
"There is no need, we won't kill him… It is better to make it a slave and use his strength for our benefit, while also extracting all the info he got, if we even got to find another unexpected encounter with a reincarnated guy, we'll know who it is based on his knowledge" said Veronica.
"Yes, as long as we contain our fury, we can clearly see that he is more useful to us alive than death… even if we were to kill him, we would eat his Soul, so it is not like he had any way to escape from us by reincarnating somewhere else when we killed him… I suppose he simply didn't know this fact" said Ervas.
"Well of course! Not everyone can destroy or eat souls like you two…" said Anna.
"We might have to introduce him to our lord's abilities to crush souls… I bet he would cry again by thinking that he was close to having completely disappeared from existence! And he was even begging for it! Gyahahaha!" laughed Ozgeth behind Veronica's shadow.
"Indeed, it will be a delightful sight to see… too bad that it is an ant and cannot show too many expressions on its face," said Legion.
"I wonder… does that guy also has the Samsara System, right? Then… does that mean that he can also change Jobs while being a tiny Ant?" asked Anna.
"He can… He should be able to. Though we weren't able to glance at his status, Appraisal doesn't work with those that also have the Samsara System… It is a stupid restriction that only I seemed to have, as all those bastards were able to use their Cheat Skills to kill me" said Veronica.
"That's rather unfair… what was even the reasoning behind the idiot god that gave you the Samsara System?" asked Jason.
"Maybe he thought that Appraisal could be used against my 'companions'… but it is not like he thought previously about the rest of the other Cheat Skills… But we might be wrong, and there might be other restrictions we didn't know about" said Ervas.
"The only thing I can think of is that stupid god being even more of an idiot, peko," said Pekorina with anger, she was constantly kicking the ground with her feet like a rabbit would do when angered or when trying to give an alert.
"Yeah, what an imbecile! If he reincarnated you as a human, you wouldn't have suffered through it all, Veronica…" said Acathea.
"No, it is fine, I recognize that he's an idiot, but I wouldn't really like to become a human if I were given the option to go back in time and do everything again… because I would have been most likely brainwashed by Bestellen and forced to kill the demons and beast-kin… I would prefer to die at their side and to see them die by my hands" said Veronica.
"I agree. I would prefer to die than to have become one of the Heroes… To have my whole soul destroyed, even… But obviously, if we were allowed to go back in time… I would try to prevent things and to play my cards better than before… I would try to change everything… But we cannot do it anymore…" said Ervas.
"And in another topic… err, I am quite curious why none of you have questioned it a bit… but this world is a Mirror Version of the Kritias you came from!?" asked Anna.
"Yes, that is what we assume… But it is not exactly a mirror, but a parallel world that shares many similarities, even the same gods to an extent" said Ervas.
"We are sorry that we didn't tell you the complete truth… you were thinking that we came from somewhere like in the past, instead of a completely parallel world," said Veronica.
"Yeah, that's what we thought initially… So you didn't come from the past, but from a parallel world set in the future?! That is, even more, crazy though!" said Jason.
"So Bestellen did whatever he wanted there… that damned mad god!" said Anna.
"We will go back there one day," said Ervas.
"Yes, we believe that we should be capable, through Ervas ability to connect us to other worlds, and my connection with the dead spirits of our previous world… if we strengthen ourselves enough to amplify this ability, it should be possible" said Veronica.
"Woah… You got it all planned it seems, peko…" said Pekorina.
"My son, Veronica, I will go with you two!" said Jason.
"Me too, don't even think about leaving me behind," said Anna.
"And me, peko!" said Pekorina.
"Me too! I will go as well!" said Acathea.
"And me, with mommy!" said Amelia.
"We shall go as well, whenever our lords go, we shall follow them like the loyal guards we have sworn to be," said Lilith, as her sisters nodded in agreement.
"Don't forget about me! I am your spirit, without me, you can barely use any magic!" said Shade.
"Me too, Ervas-san!" said Gaia.
"I shall become the shadow of my lords, and like one, accompany you everywhere you go," said Ozgeth.
"It is my duty to serve my lords…" said Legion.
"Don't forget about me, gubo! We will always be together!" said Aqua.
"Me too, mother," said Charlotte.
"Okay, okay, we get it, we'll bring you all along… However! You will have to get very strong for that! Strong enough to fight Gods! So, there is still a long road to go to reach that point" said Veronica.
"We'll lead you through it, as long as you stay by our side," said Ervas.
