About three hours of constant gun fire later I had decided to take a break.
I reached Level 3.
My Shade grew to Level 3.
I've picked up a total of 11,250 Yen, combined with my 6,570 Yen from before, that put me at 17,820 Yen, should get me by for a while.
I've picked up over two dozen Shade Cloth's.
I've gotten myself 7 extra Shade Spirits.
"Well, I think this was a successful run don't you?" I asked my Shade.
In nodded and gave me a thumbs up... Or at least the best it could do without having hands.
"Dismissed." I said, causing my Shade to revert back into a glowing ball of flames and return to me, "Heh, 8 Shades... I got my own stealth team."
After that I left my I.D.
[]
Once I was back in my house I grabbed my map of Kuoh and left, hoping to find a grocery store, that was I can stock up on supplies.
"At least I have a couch, dining table, and T.V." I muttered as I left.
[]
Walking through the town, I made sure that my Level 3 Shade was following me in my shadow.
What? In a town like this I'd like to have an ally to watch my back... quite literally in this case.
Still... I was a little lost, and I'm man enough to admit I need help... though I'm not yet man enough to wear pink.
'Right, time to crack down and ask for directions... who's around?' I thought looking around... 'Ah fuck my life.'
Standing in front of me and seemingly just passing the time was a violet eyed woman with long black hair.
[Raynare Lvl 35]
[Alias: Yuuma Amano]
[Race: Fallen Angel]
[HP: 540/540]
[MP: 760/760]
'Ah fucking hell, it's Raynare.' I thought, as I looked at my map so in case she looked my way she wouldn't see me staring at her, I occasionally looked up to look at my surroundings.
'Okay Vincent, let's look at the status, you don't have much power, nor do you have a Sacred Gear, so she's got no intention of attacking/killing you.'
I thought, 'Hmm... Maybe if I meet up with her often enough we could become friends, maybe then I wouldn't have to kill her...'
[A new quest has been added.]
[A Fallens rehabilitation]
[You've found the Fallen Angel Raynare: See if you can coax her into becoming your Friend, doing so may save her life, she might even hesitate should you two fight one another.]
[Main Objective: Befriend Raynare and ensure her survival.]
[Bonus Objectives: ? (Collect more information from Raynare to unlock for viewing)]
[Reward: +5,000 EXP, +10,000 Yen, +Title]
'Well crud, now I've got to try.' I thought, 'Got my back Shade?'
I heard a hiss as confirmation and cleared my throat, "Ah, excuse me, miss?" I said to Yuuma, as that's what I'll be referring to her disguise as when she's in it.
"Hmm?" Yuuma hummed looking over at me, hiding an annoyed look on her face as she looked me over, "Did you need something sir?" She asked putting on her kind voice.
"Yeah actually." I said scratching the back of my head for effect, "I'm... Kinda new to Kuoh, and Japan in general, do you think you can showing to the nearest grocery store?"
Yuuma gave me one last look over, "Sure, my names Yuuma Amano." Yuuma said.
"Vincent Lane, I'm from America if you coulnd't tell Yuuma-san... wait, did I get that right?" I asked.
To my relief Yuuma nodded, "Yes, we aren't really friends yet so calling me Yuuma-san is fine." Yuuma said, "Now follow me Vincent-san, there's a store over here you can buy some simple stuff at."
"Thank goodness I didn't screw that up." I said, mostly to myself and my Shade, "That would have been a really shitty start."
[]
After loading down my arms with a few bags full of food Yuuma and I left the grocery store, "Thanks again Yuuma-san." I said turning to the disguised Fallen Angel, "I'd probably be lost for a while longer if you didn't help me."
"That's fine, I understand what it's like to be in a completely new place." Yuuma said as she kept her smile.
'I'll bet.' I thought avoiding the rolling of my eyes, "Well, it's getting late so I should head home."
I said aloud to Yuuma, "But maybe sometime in the future we could get together again, I'd really feel a lot more comfortable around this town when I know someone here."
Yuuma's eyes widened in surprise, "I-I'll have to talk with my colleagues about that, we're really busy as of late." Yuuma said coming up with a quick excuse.
"Well if you ever have a chance," I said putting down my bags, pulling out a pen and notepad, and my phone
(Which thankfully still works) and wrote down my number on the notepad before tearing it out and handing it to her, "Here's my number, if you never call for any reason I won't hold it against you."
Yuuma took the note and nodded, "We'll see what happens Vincent-san, goodbye." Yuuma said as she walked away.
I walked rather slowly on the way back home, and once my Shade had given me the 'All clear' I deposited my bags in my inventory and smiled,
'I have NO idea if Yuuma's gonna call me, but at least I made an effort, but didn't make too strong an effort.'
"You think I did good?" I asked my Shade, getting a hiss for a yes.
[A new skill has be created, Detect Bloodlust. Its never a good sign when it's created, get ready for a fight.]
"Ah... hell." I grumbled as my Shade readied itself.
"Lookie here~" A female voice said, "A human wandering out all alone in the dark~ how delightful~"
'That's an even worse sign.' I thought turning to the source of the voice.
