Restaurant.

After a few days, everything was back to normal. Other then the fact the government were recruiting soldiers to fight against the Demon King's army, everything was fine.

It was his free day, and Ari was browsing around for basically anything that could cure his boredom. He was kind of a foodie, so he mostly browsed the food stalls. As he was walking he found a interesting place to eat at, so he went in.

What he didn't know was that this was a player owned restaurant, and since his mask was on, quite a few players noticed him.

"Yo isn't that the masked guild offical???" A beautiful white haired woman whispered to a brown haired man infront of her.

"Wait now that you said that...it really does seem like it!" The brown haired man was confused. Npcs could enter and eat at player restaurants??? Was this a surprise update?

"Lemme record this." The white haired woman started to record it and faced her head in his direction every so often.

Ari was not dumb, and noticed this. He was kind of creeped out, but then he saw the menu. Ohhh no wonder that woman was staring at him! Ari saw all types of his food back home on the menu. There were even french fries.

"U-Uh would you like to order now?" A nervous player/waiter was just standing there. She had never knew that a npc could enter a player establishment and even sit there and order from the menu! Her boss just told her to wait there, since he didn't know what to do too.

"Mm, may I have the..hamburger steak and the..Coca Cola?" he pretended to have no idea what it was.

"A-Ah..." The brown haired waitress was shocked. This npc just pronounced the menu items! T-HE NPC TALKED ABOUT THE FOOD BACK HOME! The fourth wall sirens were ringing in her head.

The company who made Player 1, made all the people who did the voice acting secret. Did the company call the voice actor of this npc just to order food?! This must be a secret quest!

"Uhh hello?" Ari saw she wasn't responding, and he frowned a bit.

"O-Oh! Sorry! I'll get that right away!" She rushed back to the kitchen, and put his order as top priority.

Ari was just lazing around, waiting for his food to arrive. A few minutes later, his food came out.

"That was pretty fast." He looked at the hamburger steak with pleasure in his eyes. He really loved hamburger steak back at home.

"O-Of course! F-Feel free to c-come back anytime!?" She said it as a question and invitation.

Ari nodded. "Sure, I will." Ari ate his hamburger steak with pleasure. After he was done, he smiled and headed off...

The players at the cafe posted the videos online.

"SHOCKING! THE MASKED NPC SHOWED UP AT *** RESTAURANT AND ORDERED FOOD!"

"SURPRISE UPDATE FROM GAME DEVELOPERS?! GAMING EXPERT ** SAYS YES!"

"WHO IS THE MASKED NPC'S VOICE ACTOR?! SOME SAY IT'S **%* FROM (***^!"

Loads of this type of stuff spammed the online forum. People were going crazy since if there was one big mystery everybody wanted to solve...everyone wanted to solve it.

This was all done behind the oblivious Ari...

"Oho? You found another interesting thing again?" A extraordinarily handsome black haired man smirked. He was sitting on a red couch, covered in rose petals. His eyes were jet black and his face was full of arrogance. His eyes seemed to see through you every time you looked into them.

"Of course, I am rather...reluctant to share this person as well." Shurlon smiled and looked down.

"...Lixian, what do you think?"

"Your Royal Highness, how would I-" Lixian began.

"Lixian." His eyes turned cold. "Real opinions please?"

There was a pause.

"I...think he is a very out of the ordinary person."

"And why is that?" The black haired man's eyes turned amused.

"He easily can cut through a man's leg, but vomits at the sight of monster blood. He acts like he hasn't seen magic before, and always tries to keep his mask on. He would go to even higher lengths by sleeping with it. I have also asked my men to investigate his background, but nothing came to. It was as if he just popped into existence. Phases (Phas turns into Phases when added with a -ed -Koru) are usually anti social too...It's really strange." Lixian kept his head bowed.

"Hmmm...you brought a really interesting one this time Shurl." He smiled.

"Of course, I do have an eye for such things as well." Shurlon raised his head.

"Ah Ari huh? I wonder how you would react in bed."

Far away, Ari felt a chill up his spine.

"Dang it! Who did I anger this time?!" He thought. He looked around secretly and hurried back to his home.
