The Delta Server, Root Town Mac Anu...
LOADING LOCATION...
Root Town Mac Anu... Located on the Delta Server, it is the Root Town for beginner characters from Levels 1 through 50. I guess most people aren't ready to go to any other towns anyways since everyone's characters were just created today. The only other town worth going to right now would be on the Omega Server, Warring City of Lumina Cloth. The reason being that the city contains the Arena. I bet people are already beating the hell out of each other there... Actually, I bet Saiusuke is there right now... I'm already bored... I'm already Level 35... CC Corp. Programmers don't change. They always throw that one technique into the game to get unlimited Leveling Books and I've already figured it out. Too bad I got bored and didn't decide to level to the current Level Cap that is 50. Weird that the other towns are open even though we can't use them yet... Probably next update.

Press the Start Key
"Huh...?" I turned around and realized I had a message. I clicked the button and the message opened.
-Sender: Saiusuke
-Subject: Buyer
-Message: "Hey! Runo! I've got someone here looking for some information about the Leveling Books! I know you know about them. Get over here! I'm in Lumina Cloth near the Arena!"
Saiusuke, eh? I can't believe he already found someone... This is probably my Tenth Request today... And maybe the fifth about the leveling thing... Sure it's easy real life money or in-game stuff, but... Never mind... That could be explained later. I bet Saiusuke is expecting me...

Okay, he says that he is at the Arena. Guess I'm going over there...
A bike suddenly appeared and Runo jumped on it. She started the engines and rode off towards the Arena Counters. Her player turned her view to look out over the playable walls to see a bright city in the distance and below. She looked at all of the lights going. It was weird because you could still see the stars...
It is so weird... How could they program such amazing sights and lights of the lights and stars into a game...? It's crazy... It's too beautiful to be fake... It's... It is just too beautiful... I guess the excuse would be it would be even more beautiful in real life... Right...
Runo stopped at the main Arena Counters and jumped off of her bike. She turned around to see Saiusuke standing there. He must have commanded his character to do it, because Saiusuke put his hand above his hand and started waving, "Runo~ The guy is down this alley way! Normal place~"
"Yeah yeah..." Runo let out a sigh. "Let's just go."
In the back alley way behind the main arena in Lumina Cloth, Runo walked down the road with Saiusuke walking next to her. She saw a man, in a generic Player Character Model. She did not prefer generic ones because they are used too often.
The man turned around and obviously, he only saw Saiusuke's Username. Runo was cheap like that. She has programming knowledge and made her own Add-On for personal use to hide any information unless she allowed someone to see it.
He spoke in a fairly deep voice, "I suggest you are Runo."
"Yeah." Runo nodded.
"Give me the information about Leveling Books, where to find them, grinding, the likes, and you will get your money."
Runo stepped forward. "Leveling Books can be found when defeating King Chim Chims. It was a new feature I figured out about when kicking Chim Chims one day. Oddly enough, the amount of Leveling Books you get is equal to the number of GP you have by thousands. Each Leveling Book upgrades your level by one for each use. You can only use each once. I suggest you go get them before they fix this... Glitch. Also, I suggest King Chim Chim trackers."
"Later then!" The man vanished. He gated out of the Server.
Runo didn't move. She turned to Saiusuke and growled, "You didn't know?"
"Whoa Runo! Like I would know what a guy would do!" Saiusuke backed up.
"Whatever." Runo stomped off towards the Chaos Gate and complained, "At least I had this fucking tracker turned on. Come on Saiusuke, you're coming with me!"
Saiusuke started off after her, "Man... I knew you were going to say that!"

LOADING LOCATION...
Runo looked around the area and saw Chim Chims running around. She turned to Saiusuke and spoke, "I'm loading the Speech Program, alright?"
"Yeah, yeah." Saiusuke wove a bit. "Do whatever you want."
"Tch." Runo turned towards to the Chim Chim and there was a beep sound for a moment. And on the screen was a message translating the Chim Chim. Runo turned back to Saiusuke and said, "This guy says that the guy isn't very far away from here. Again, something about chasing a King."
"Let's go then."
The two quickly came to the man in a small clearing on the map. He was facing a King Chim Chim and a few Rare Chim Chims. Runo could spot him with a broadsword out. She stepped in front of the man, arms folded in a "pissed off" position.
"You again..." The man muttered all too loudly. Because in an instant, Runo had the man pinned down on the ground with her Bayonet out. She then spoke, "You are low-leveled. I know it. Want me to pull the trigger?"
"Don't." The man spoke.
"Don't make me. Hand over the money."
"How much?"
"10."
"What? For that information?"
"I will pull the trigger."
"Fine, fine!"
"About time."
Runo made her weapon disappear, satisfied, but mad.
Saiusuke turned away and complained, "Come on Runo! Let's go already!"
"Quit your whining."
"Oh, Ruko-chan. Are you still up?"
Ruko took the headset off and looked at the woman standing in the doorway of her room. She smiled slightly and said, "Yeah. I was about to finish actually. I'll make this quick transaction and go to bed, 'kay?"
"Just go to bed soon." The woman smiled and nodded.
"Alright."
"I have to go to bed."
"Alright, good night. See you tomorrow."
"Night."
"Yeah."
