It didn't take long for Zus to suffer a gruesome death after being dragged behind Cero for hours. It was safe to say, it wasn't a death anyone would have wanted. But it was a death fitting of someone who betrayed Zok.
As soon as the system confirmed that Zus was indeed dead, Zok finally let go of the vine that had been binding Zus. Soon the creatures that had been chasing behind him, stomped the dead Occunian to a paste.
As a result, Zok's Depravity shot back up to 20%, and as it did Zok realised something. Whenever he killed people he received some depravity, even if he simply killed them without torturing them, he still gained some of it.
However, he did not always receive it after killing the beast. It was as if the system and the depraved one were trying to tell him something. If it had been the Zok who had entered the dungeon, and such a thought would have risen inside his head, he would have pushed it out without hesitation.
