“Good fight. That was fun!” I heard a girl’s voice. It was BIGPunch. After our fight we went to eat something. Just the two of us. I didn’t really want to, but she insisted. Well, I couldn’t decline her offer, after my guild lost to her in a guild war.
I took a bite of my cake as I looked around. We were in some kind of restaurant. A really expensive one to be precise. This place was huge, and beautiful, but it looked like a place you would take someone you like to.
No way?!
Does she like me? No, it can’t be it.
I drank some tea as I tried to calm myself. This can’t be the case.
“You really are a great player Lilly!” she then said, and grabbed my hands with glowing eyes. In the same moment everyone around us started looking at us.
“T-Thanks.” I said, thinking about how to refuse her politely.
“That’s why I want to merge our guilds!”
“No, sorry, I’m not looking for a girlfriend... “ I said and bowed my head.
Wait. What? Am I wrong or she said something different?
“What are you talking about? Anyway, I want to merge our guilds. After our fight I saw what you are capable of! I saw what your guildmates, are capable… of…” she looked like she wanted to say something, but she didn’t. Instead she just smiled.
“Merge our guilds? I don’t understand.”
“Both of our guilds aren’t that big! Both of us need new members! It’s a great opportunity! After I saw your fight with our hunter I knew you are a right person to do it! You should see his face after you defeated him!” BIGPunch said, and laughed a little.
Wait, “his” face? Did I heard it right? He must be some kind of pervert to play as a girl in a…
“Something happened? You don’t look well.” this elf girl asked me, with concerned look.
“N-No continue…” I said, and took another sip of my tea.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
“As I said, our guilds aren’t that big. We still can’t compete with the bigger ones in RaS. But if we could just play together. We would be indestructible. Just imagine it! Me, and you! My teammates, and… your teammates...”
I don’t understand. Why is talking about my teammates so hard for you?
“Anyway, what do you think!?” she then asked, and once again grabbed my hands.
Well, you might ask “what do you think”, but I don’t really know. It’s not like I can just decide on something like this by myself in a moment. And if I’m not mistaken your guild isn’t really liked by mine.
“Let me think about this.” I just replied, and after that we split up.
BIGPunch looked a little disappointed, that I didn’t gave her immediate answer, but there wasn’t anything I could do. Things like this aren’t easy.
Well, maybe I’m just some NEET, that thinks too deeply about stupid things, but I can’t help it. I don’t want to just do something and then regret it. Well, it must be normal for every human.
As I thought about those things, I left the restaurant. It was the middle of the night in RaS, but I’m sure that it’s late in a normal world too.
I was in the first city - Airedale. It was the main city, and many players still spent here most of their time. When I started walking in this white city, I saw one player with low levels, doing his first quests.
When I looked at him I started to think about my real life. My grades are good, I can’t say I’m being bullied, but here I am, playing this game in all of my free time.
Well, it’s not like I dislike it. On the contrary, I love this game.
“Better not to think about unnecessary things.” I said to myself, and continued walking.
I thought about contacting the rest of my guild, but they are probably offline at this hour. I can’t really blame them, it’s not like anyone can spend as much time in this game as me.
“I will just walk for some time, and then I should call it a day.” I thought to myself, and continued to stroll around.
Some time has passed, and I entered the shopping district. Many shops were lit by countless lamps, but I could see here only NPCs. No one was online at this hour.
“Well, I should call it a day.” I said, and started to logout.
I can always play tomorrow. I should also tell the others about this weird offer from BIGPunch. Well, it looks like I will have a lot to do. But this will be tomorro...
“Hey! Stop! Stop right now!” I heard a girl’s voice behind me. Is she talking to me? No, why would she…
“Can’t you hear me!? Stop right now!!” she shouted one more time.
Yeah, she must be calling me. I don’t want to answer her. She must be some weird person, that is online at this late…
“Hey! Why are you so sad?! Anyway, just stop logging out!” she said, and I reluctantly listened to her.
Just who might it be? As I thought about this, I turned around. When I did it I saw two familiar girls, and both of them were wearing maid outfits.
