Few minutes later after they left the Basilicom, they reached the Guild's building, and once inside, he saw that was a very busy building with lots of people, between people behind the counters and others that he presumed could be adventurers or guild members taking missions or reporting back.
Doesn't really look out of place in a MMORPG game... was his thoughts in short, and he turned to see Neptune when she was speaking, not catching everything she said, only few parts
"... So in the end I have to work, I hope there's a job that can offer a bunch of credits" she said as she was looking through the job list, he also looked too, watching that there were a lot of jobs, with letters going from S to D, probably indicating the difficulty range
"Oh... so this is how you work then... more than one I know at least" he muttered those last words, and he kept looking the list "so... not to be rude, but if you are thinking about getting one of the difficult jobs... you know, I want to play safe first, so why don't get one of the easy ones? You know... to avoid getting a game over so soon." Apparently he said it in time as she began to sweat, probably because that was her idea, and his reaction was a face palm.
"Uh... yeah, I do a lot of hard jobs, but if you want an easy job..." she soon pointed one of the jobs marked with a C on it "how about killing 2000 doggoos?" She asked, he only nodded in response
"Why not? Seems like it could be easy" was his response, and he just went with her to accept the quest, and he followed her where the mission is, but while they were going, he just thought about something
"Hey Neptune... before I forget, to do those missions you need a weapon, right? You do have one, right?"
"Of course!" she answered happy, while taking out a wooden sword "a trusty sword that I got from a dumpster!"
... Is she REALLY a goddess...? She doesn't even act as one... His thoughts in a nutshell, as while he kept his serious persona, internally was thinking things like that, with disbelief. I will have some words with someone if I go back home...
After a while, they reached the destination, and he could see the form of the creature that they are suppose to kill. It was small, blue slime with a dog like face and with a tail and ears too.
"... and I thought I saw everything in my life..." Ren said, and also looked at the horde of those creatures that roamed in the place "and the quest said that there were like... 2000?"
"heheh yeah, is unusual this high, there aren't so many normally, but the sooner it's done, the sooner I can be playing games again!" and like that Neptune was charging towards one of the dogoo.
Or so it was, as she stopped in her tracks after it was hit with a ball of purple energy, and electric sounds could be heard when the dogoo was previously standing
"NEPU! What was that just right now? Where did it come from!?"
"..." Ren had is right arm extended with his palm opened, with a smirk in his face, some sparks faded from his hand, as it was him who fired that attack "so I still have my powers here... I was worrying that I lost them"
"wh-wh-whaaaat? You're a Maker and you didn't told me about it? That's not fair!" Neptune was in shock because of the recent events.
"... What's a Maker?" was his answer.
"You must be joking, right? And more importantly, you stole the first kill! As the main character, that right is mine!"
"... Afraid of sharing the spotlight? If not, move and kill them" he said almost emotionless, and he attacked at the creatures, killing them with ease
"Hm, I'm not going to be left behind, I'll show you what Planeptune's CPU can do!" and with a flash, he closed the eyes because of the brightness, and once he opened them, instead of Neptune, an older woman appeared, wearing what it looked like a one piece purple swimsuit, purple long hair that was tied in braids, and some weird wings on her back, but the strangest thing was her eyes, that had an on/off symbol in them.
"Time to get serious" and as soon she said that, she quickly slashed the surrounding creatures with ease.
He was distracted long enough for a doggoo to hit him from behind, making him stumbling for a moment, and soon he discovered that was covered by a slimy substance, at least, the coat he's wearing. He just threw it aside, and took a deep breath
-So, that's what you want, uh? It's fucking on, suckers!- he said, and after covering himself in a small barrier, and he began to destroy the monsters
After several hours passed, only the transformed Neptune and Ren remained, he was visibly tired, and Neptune was in her original self
"agh... I don't think I'll do this more... still, I admit that transformation of yours... was impressive" Ren said, taking a deep breath
"That was my CPU form, but it consumes a lot of energy, energy that will be restored thanks to pudding!"
"... Right. Ah, just give me a moment to grab my coat, and we can go back... it should be around, somewhere" he then began to walk to look for his piece of clothing, as he didn't see where it landed, in the heat of the battle. He managed to find it after 5 minutes of searching, and soon he picked it up, and soon he went to where Neptune was, but when he was getting close, he began to feel dizzy, though he recovered, quickly ignoring whatever reason why it happened.
When he was approaching to where Neptune is, he could also see another girl, taller than her, black hair with twin tails, red eyes, and was wearing what looked a black dress with some parts white, he could hear a conversation as he was getting closer
"... and can shoot lightning from the hands, and is not a Maker!"
"Honestly, is hard to believe that story, are you sure you're not making up?" just in that moment, a small bolt of lightning was fired near the other girl, which made her scream
"Now you believe, Miss? Seriously, is that hard tooooah!" he switched the word as soon was being pointed by a sword, and he quickly took one of his scythes, doing the same.
"And I have to play the sane man role, oh boy"

A/N: took me a long, long time to complete this but well, is finally here... I'm surprised that the first chapter managed to get some attention, as almost all my attempts to make stories are... well, not very succesful... oh well
I'll try not to take the same amount of time to do the next chapter...
