Shugo's POV:
(Note: The lyrics are from the song" The Garden of Everything" which is sung by Steve Conte & Maaya Sakamoto, Aura's seiyuu)
'Here you are, daylight star, made out of miracles; Perfection of your own, you alone, oh so incredible…'
Since when did I meet that girl…? Since I 'died' for the first time in "The World"…? Ah, I remember now--it was when I was in Kaz's house, playing 'The World' secretly when I was ten.
Aura, the goddess of 'The World'; the goddess of light; the only perfection in the 'The World'. The one who's made out of miracles.
I've keep thinking whether our meet is coincidence or not, for Net Slum is the only place that I can meet Aura. Maybe I should thank Kaz for getting me involved in Aura accidentally, and form the fragile between her and me. I also should thank Rena for encouraging me to play 'The World'. I don't think I will be able to meet Aura again if Rena doesn't keep blabbing about how she likes 'The World', although she seems pretty mad about the kisses I received from Aura and Zefie after I bring Zefie back to her mother.
Now to think of that, isn't Rena being too paranoid on that kind of things? I mean—Aura's an AI, I'm a human being. Even if we're in love, it turns nothing out right?
…even if we ARE in love……
'Beep beep-'
A mail eh? Maybe it's from Mireille, reporting on some new rare-item searching campaigns…wait, a mail with attachment? That isn't Mireille's style—s-she's not sending some strange items to me right?

What. The. Hell. Is .This?!
Surely it is some kind of joke or mischief right? I can't read the mail at all!
"Big brother? Was that your girly scream?"
Oh, it's Rena. Guess I can ask her to he…HEY THAT'S NOT A GIRLY SCREAM!!
"Whatever…it DID sounded like a girly scream. Anyway what happened?" She laughed a bit, then stuck her head near to the screen.
"Well, I received a corroded mail and I can't read it at all." I said.
"Hmmm…I think we can guess by the shape of those signs…" Rena thought for a moment, and then started to copy those signs on a piece of paper.
"Yeah, translating monkey right?" I teased. Rena shot a glare to me. "Oops! Just kidding…" I guess I should try to translate those signs too…
Hours later, Rena and I worked out some of the words and the mail now looks like this:
SUBJECT: TO S£u9O SENDER: 8u&8 ∮
S£u9O…
PlZ COmE TO NET SLum WITh &EN8 by vI&uS CO&E TOMMO&Ow mO&NIN9
I W8NT TO T8lK TO yOu
8u&8
Hmmm…it started to make some sense…but it's still difficult to read…
"Hmm…8…8…eight……eight?!" Rena seemed to get something on her mind!!
"What is it? Did you get something?" I asked hopefully. Just a bit more, then I can read the mail!
"Don't you think eight sounds like the word 'A'? Maybe the sign '8' stands for 'A'!" Rena explained to me. Then we smiled together.
"Yeah!" If the signs are related to shape and pronunciation, then maybe we should think deeper into that…&…& and R?
"Reina! The sign '&' stands for 'R' ! I'm sure!" I screamed.
"Yes! And then the sign '£' should be… 'h?" Rena guessed. Hah, that's a good point! Good work, little sister!
"And the last one—'9'… does it look like 'g' ?" I suggested. Then we grinned together.
WE FINALLY TRANSLATED THE MAIL INTO WORDS SUCCESSFULLY!!
"Phew! That was a hard work! Want some drink sis? " I suggested to her.
"Sure!" Rena gave me a big grin.
One minute later, two of us had coke while reading the letter.
SUBJECT: TO SHUGO SENDER: AURA ∮
SHUGO…
PLZ COME TO NET SLUM WITH RENA BY VIRUS CORE TOMORROW MORNING
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU
AURA
Aura sent the mail…?!
"Aura…wants us to go to Net Slum? What for?" Rena took a slip of coke, then asked.
"She wants to talk to me, but also invite you to go to Net Slum…why?" I wondered.
Besides, will Aura ever write these kinds of things? She's the goddess of 'The World' after all!
But what about the virus cores attached with the mail?
This mail surely left lot mysteries to us…
So here it is! Please R&R!(I don't mind criticizes, that makes the story goes better)
