While Kirou was busy enjoying his drinks at the bar counter with Jane keeping him company and Carlos taking care of the patrons, on the other side of the club within one of the VIP booths upstairs was a group of people currently enjoying the club in their own private way. A group of good looking men and women were currently lounging around the room, enjoying their drinks while making small talk with each other. While someone like Kirou wouldn't notice it immediately if he saw them, any random fan of the professional gaming leagues would realize that the people currently in this room are all high profile members of various powerhouse guilds currently found in Immortal Era and other such VR games.
A meetup like this between the various members of the top guilds in these games isn't that common since each guild would usually be busy building their powers in-game but the recent server shutdown left everyone with nothing to do on a Friday night. It was due to this th
It was the following morning that Kirou awoke in a bed. The strange thing was that he didn't immediately recognize the roof above his head as the one he's used to seeing. As he sat up in the bed, he heard some moans coming from beside him. Looking to his left, he noticed that a woman was sleeping next to him, which prompted him to raise an eyebrow in response.Kirou looked at the woman with a peculiar gaze before surveying the room around him. The room was simple and contained little to no decorations, besides a few family photos on the dresser. He also took note of the clothes messily lying on the floor next to the bed. Kirou then focused his gaze back on the woman sleeping next to him, taking in her naked form currently being covered by the bedsheets. Naturally, Kirou had an idea about what they did last night but he wasn't too sure what led up to it.Due to this, Kirou was in no rush to get up but instead leaned back on the bed head, tryi
Kirou was currently making his way through the busy streets to head home. On his face was a refreshing smile as he thought about the events that took place during the previous night, as well as this morning.'Though it has been a while, that went pretty well. Then again, I never expected Jane to be that enthusiastic during the entire ordeal. I must have flipped a switch in her during the fight.' The smile on Kirou's face grew even wider as he thought this, prompting a few people in the surroundings to be looking at him with peculiar gazes. Kirou ignored their stares as he continued his trip to the subway.It was around 11 when Kirou arrived at the subway station. Instead of taking the subway home right away, he stopped by a cafe nearby for a drink. While within the cafe, Kirou finally allowed the smile on his face to fade away as he enjoyed a cup of Blue Mountain Coffee. While the coffee was a bit strong, Kirou found himself liking the Jamai
It was roughly after three in the afternoon when Kirou finally returned home. He didn't immediately return home but instead went around town, looking for some stuff. After spending a few hours on this, Kirou finally managed to find what he was looking for and returned home. When Kirou entered his apartment, the first thing he did was unpack his stuff in his living room before heading to the bathroom for a shower. Roughly twenty minutes later, Kirou was now sitting on his couch while a few spools of wire, each of differing widths, were sitting on the small table before him.Just like he's able to do in the game with his pickpocket skill, Kirou can also make use of Mana Control outside of the game. The only drawback is that he currently had no way of testing just how much energy is in his body and how much he's allowed to use comfortably. Unlike within Immortal Era where he's given an upper limit on mana, he has no such convenience in reality so he has to fumble h
After fleeing from Bladesmith's cottage, Kirou now found himself somewhere in the middle of Elderwood Village. Taking a few seconds to look around his surroundings, he recognized that he was now near the General Store Manager, Almia's cottage. Since he hasn't visited her in a while and he still had half an hour to kill, Kirou entered the store and was greeted by the sight of Almia sitting behind her usual counter, with a cookbook in her hand.Upon hearing the door open, Almia looked up from her cookbook to see Kirou walking into her store. This prompted the woman to smile before speaking, "Ara ara, young one. To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?""Hello, Manager Almia. I was just in the area and was wondering if I could borrow your kitchen for a bit." Kirou approached the counter as he said this.Almia looked at Kirou for a bit with a peculiar gaze before speaking, "Sure. I have no problems with that, young one.
The trio was currently more than a few kilometers away from Thousand Wood Village. To make sure that their conversation was private, they even entered the secret underwater entrance for the <Riverbed Cove Dungeon> which they cleared earlier that week to ensure that no one would be able to eavesdrop on their conversation without revealing their presence.Kirou took note of the lengths they were willing to go to to keep this conversation from being overheard. Granted, Kirou already had a layer of security up with his shadow clone but seeing them doing this put a smile on his face as it showed that they are aware of the dangers around them, even if it's just a small amount."Now that we don't have to worry about any annoying pests stalking and overhearing us, I'd like to formally make this request, Kirou. Would you be able to provide a demonstration of your harvesting abilities to members of our guild tomorrow?" When Navi asked this, she
After finally managing to escape the chase of the two elven women, Kirou was currently roaming the outer edges of the Thousand Wood Forest. Beneath his body was a two-meter tall, four-meter long black wolf with blood-red eyes. This was the mount that Kirou obtained for completing his part of the <Traces of the Dark Continent> quest. Kirou himself was quite surprised when he saw the kind of mount he obtained from the random mount token he received.Mount: Blood Shadow Wolf (Rare)Mount Species: Shadow WolfMount Type: Combat MountMount Requirement: Level 15Mount Speed: +180%Skills: Shadow Movement, Feral Roar (Active), Intimidation Stare (Passive), Blood Tracking (Passive)Going over the stats of his mount, Kirou couldn't stop himself from thinking that the game was kind of biased towards him. This wasn't the first time that he obtained something random from the system that fits his exact skill set.
Kirou hadn't even managed to cross five meters before he was greeted by a huge jellyfish tentacle rushing towards him with deadly intent. Just as the tentacle was about to slam into his body, Kirou used the force of a charged shot from his gunblade tonfa to narrowly dodge it by pushing him to the right of the tentacle. This resulted in him narrowly dodging the attack but sustaining slight damage from the dregs of stones that flew up from the crash site of the tentacle.Slightly shocked, Kirou made sure to keep his guard up while rushing to the main body of the giant jellyfish. That earlier attack gave him an estimate on the strength of the monster and now he only needed to confirm it with his eyes.The giant jellyfish was angry at the fact that Kirou had dodged its tentacle. While staring at the young werewolf, the jellyfish attacked with two more tentacles while simultaneously ordering the Stone Axe Minotaur through its newly established mi

While the system was announcing the first kill for the jellyfish king, Kirou only glanced at the rewards before turning his attention back to the task at hand. Kirou had other things to focus on presently instead of paying attention to the people talking on the world chat or looking at the treasure c
