A event saved in "Heart's" memory... calling it memory is a little too old it would be just a event that happened in front of him.
No matter how hard he questioned himself, tried to search with all the knowledge he had, to know why others saved him. All the people who tried to just gather parts to make him by sacrificing themselves, some even with no knowledge gained knowledge by reading dozens of manuals and books just to help others.
He never found why they did so much but didn't try to help themselve.

"Nate you ready? If not I am gonna kick you out of D-Bike." Heart said in the same voice from Nate's upgraded duel disk, but it echoed a little.
"I am. But didn't you said you can't operate D-Bike now?"
"I didn't say operate. I just said I am not gonna be in D-Bike. Not controlling it from inside but I can command it." It echoed again.
"Then... no let's focus on now what's behind us." Nate turned his neck behind and saw that big shadow
"Hmm... hmmm... that seems to be something else from what I know."
"You don't know!?"
"No. But it isn't moving but is just standing half on ground and half in ground is weird."
Nate take a Glance at that shadow.
Even with no sun, world was bright.
Red land and red sky with brightness but even then that shadow didn't even looked little clear to see.
But it had horns and glowing red eyes with tiger like blood red pupils. And mouth opened with sharp scissors like teeths jointed. And hands just wrapped with each.
"But it isn't moving, what kind of game is this?"
Click!
A sound was made.
Ground started to get broke, Sky seemed like it will Crack in resonate with ground and a more wild roar came as if to reply Nate's question.
"What is happening now!?" Nate dazed
"You! Looks like you have a black tounge."
"Black tounge?"
"I mean in bad situation in bad way when something bad shouldn't happen when one says something like bad shouldn't happen or why something good, it's bad way happens.
"Am I that disliked by fate and world?." Nate said like he just accepted what Heart said
"Well cheer up, actually because I am in this situation, or I won't care either way."
Nate didn't say or do anything as if to accept Heart.
"Hey! Don't feel down! It's something people doesn't have. Think in positive way you can make your enemies in great situation for you." Heart said to make Nate feel good
"But if I want something good for myself which will be bad for my enemies then it won't happen." Nate said
"..." Heart couldn't compress how to respond to make people feel good."WELL IT DOESN'T MATTER DOES IT! We can just somehow make this into our advantage" Heart said
"Yeah" noded Nate
D-Bike is going through and through. Ground is shaking and is getting cracked and holes are coming and ground is getting demolished. But D-Bike like in a computer operated game, is just going with taking turnes and making jumps through demolished areas. Going in a puzzle way.
And then the shadow declared.
"Nate Azure, you are the new sacrifice for our royal world and great black game." In a giant, heavy voice
"Sacrifice? And royal world?" Nate speak confused as if to ask Heart indirectly
"Don't ask me. I am here to research myself." Heart declined Nate's question.
Heart : "Is this supposed to be a royal game? Then it explains the appearance of one of dark conquerers. but then why here not where lot of people are? Is this... maybe..."
"Heart what to do?" Nate said
"Nothing. if anything we just have to wait for something to happen."
And the figure that looked like it goes to sky then disappeared and then the red sky started to darken it got darker and darker until it didn't become black.
And then the lightning came and the remaining area of ground where that shadow was now had become nothing. from sky a slim figure came black armored like slim but unbreakable body but eyes closed.
"Now what!?" Nate dazed
Heart : "yare yare, guy has already gotten into supreme black mode."
Heart : "Nate this situation doesn't look good but we can't escape without doing nothing either. What will you do?"
That thing had a kind of aura around it that just describing "intimidating" wasn't far enough.
But Nate,
"Hmm that thing just taking different form won't help itself." Said with confidence in tone.
"Could it be, this guy doesn't know what conquer with intimation means..." Heart thought
"It's not time for that Nate the Game is starting to take form." Heart said
"How did you know?"
"I can know with presence of this area."
"So envious. I wonder you can sense all girl's naked body with this" Nate just take his inner fantasys to him. Not letting it take control.
"Well then let's go it should be ready by now."
"?"
As ground got shaken up and gigantic field rose from it.
"WOW!"
From its all end-angles there was one horn like straight rod. Who know how long it goes. If you just look up you will fall from making head straight and straight.
And the sky became blood red making a red-black hole like tornado in center.
"WOW!"
And from field red lightning go to sky.
Both black and red lightning were like fighting each other and it made illuminated scene in now dark sky.
"WOW!"
Heart : "Is it that easy to impress you?"
"It is so amazing can't you see the coolness of such scene. As if like a real movie character has came." Nate said amazed
"It's not movie character. It's actually dark conquerer. More terrifying than any horror movie villain."
And now the slim figure float in center of massive field, making look like main host of show.
And it said.
"In the name of sacrifice God."
Nate suddenly felt pressure.
"My right hand feels heavy." It wasn't burdensome
"What kind of game will it be..."
And then in the slim figures right hand a big and straight sword like thing appeared and it shone vermilion.
"I will start." It said
"Is this supposed to be duel?"
As D-Bike was going fast, like talking to speed, the figure said.
"I, prayer of despair, summon, great one, who conquerers all hope and blacks it, the king Dark overlord."
And a atmosphere words can't explain.
From the red-black tornado came to land and then so little was left on red ground was vanished into nothing and the overlord came.
With normal body, normal size and red-black devil like armor covering face to legs and with dark red flames sprouting endless from its back.
"I have summoned the great one, he will be ensure that our battle, monitorour battle, our sacrifice will go with no harm and with no deceiveness."
"It isn't a monster but it's no less than that!"
Just looking at felt like it will kill you and you can't take eyes off from it to guard yourself.
"I want you to answer my questions." That slim figure said
"Questions? Is that all." Even if Nate didn't say loud or not even close to being called "talk" but it heard it like it have surpassed something incredible
"Yes." Calm with no harm yet the word carried lot of pressure
"I don't feel it is all." Heart said
As the road seemed to end and with buildings around D-Bike take big jump and with a slide- building it go straight and straight. Then with a big fly. It landed on Heartland Amusement Park.
"Hey we can't see that guy now."
"Don't worry I will manage D-Bike. I have experience after all, more than you."
And than it go straight to a giant, long pol and after going to top there was roller-coaster road and D-Bike just go with it's endless puzzle loop.
"Amazing is there anything this engineer's Dream like Bike can't do!!!" Nate shouted
"It's D-Bike moron first of all, it will feel bad if you just kept calling it that."
"Does it have its own AI?"
"No. But I will make you regret."
"...sorry"
"My first question..." It started talking
And the question it asked Nate couldn't understand why. Not that he didn't knew why but why it asked him this.
The question Nate kept thinking, the answer Nate couldn't come up with.
Why he had that, why he can't live without it.
"What is your desire?"
