After having fought Karukobi in a bloody fight that took both of them beyond their limits, Fell decided that it was time for him to take a break from Battle Center. Obviously, his body could go on for as much he wanted. But his mind was getting weary from the dozens of injuries he had taken during his three matches. Thus, after joking lightly with Senior Mountain he logged out of the game.
As soon as he thought about disconnecting from the game. An interface appeared in front of him, he accepted its contents and his surroundings changed drastically. The tiles under his feet began disintegrating, then his surroundings turned into a void filled with the piece that made his surroundings.
Then, the next moment in front of his sight was a ceiling. He blinked his eyes and got up from the chair-like construct that took the user in the virtual world of Battle Center. The first thing he did after getting up on his feet was stretching his rigid body. Popping sounds were produced every time he moved his rigid limbs. After laying on the metallic bed that contained the cerebral link for who knows how long, his body's joints had stiffened and needed to be stretched.
After a few minutes of soft movements, he felt that it was enough and began moving toward the tutorial room's door. As his arm was extending toward the dial that was made to open to door, he heard a clicking sound and the metallic frame of the door separated in two. His eyebrows rose slightly as he didn't know that the door had such an option, but he threw the remark to the back of his head and resumed his steps.
He then left the tutorial room and turned to the left in the direction of the elevator. He felt a soft object connect with his body and heard a slight pained moan. Thud! A pair of buttocks hit the hard floor under their feet.
"Oh… sorry!" he swiftly apologized as he understood that he had bumped into someone. His hand was rubbing the back of his head as he felt slightly ashamed that he hadn't noticed the person. He focused his sight on the figure that was sitting on the floor. She was rubbing her buttocks to ease her pain. It seemed that she was running quite fast before jolting onto Fell.
"Sowwy my ass!" the person responded in a slightly drunken voice.
As Fell's sight focused on the person's face, he immediately recognized the person as she was the first individual he had met when he entered Battle Center. She was Tahlya, the battle maiden that was taking care of Fell's debut in Battle Center.
She had been told to wait for Fell to finish his first session in the tutorial room and was supposed to explain to him what were the next courses of action he needs to partake. But that bastard had completely fallen under the game's realism and immediately began the Phase II
But she had been told by the tech staff that the idiot had already fought one match and didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave the virtual world. Thus, she decided to kill time and began drinking in her office. Usually, she would never do such a dangerous act that could ruin her reputation. But Fell meant too much of a big opportunity for her, and the fact that he had risked ruining their chances was too much for her to shoulder.
Thus, she ended up being drunk quite fast. A few minutes earlier, she had been dozing off under the effect of the liquor until she received a message notifying her that the fighter under her supervision had disconnected from Battle Center. She immediately left her room in a hurry, the intoxication she was under made her steps hazy, but she still needed to rant on that bastard.
As she was afraid that the bastard would log on the game again, she made her upmost to arrive at his tutorial room as she was afraid, he just disconnected to use the bathroom.
"Bastard!" She said as she tried to get up. But the liquor that was in her body didn't make the simple act easy.
