"I am willing to help you, but you have to start by explaining to me what an outsider is"
"If you can really help me then I accept"
CHAPTER 24
"If you want to know everything, there is a hierarchy. The Admin, the Masters, the Organizers and the Outsiders. We are the ones at the bottom."
"I guessed about The Admin, but what are the Masters for?"
"They're just a rank higher than the Organizers. They don't have anything in particular."
"And is there any way to move up in rank?"
"Yes through subscriptions!"
Subscriptions, what was that thing again.
"It's a kind of pact between an
Organizer and a civilian. Every night, they take away a number of Rubys, but in return, they get crucial information about what's going to happen next."
I see, it's kind of like monthly subscriptions on various apps.
"Interesting, and can I do that with you?"
"Impossible, I'm just an Outsider..."
"So what? If you want to show others what you're worth, you have to take risks"
"I'm not supposed to stay outside the fictional world how will I explain to them..."
"You'll figure it out" I said, cutting her off "Then you accept"
"I guess I have no choice..."
[Notification log:
- You have just taken a subscription on the server ED-01602 Doferus. 50 Rubys will be taken from you every night ]
50 Rubys ? That's a reasonable one. Anyway, I already guessed how it would end.
"Great!"
"I advise you to go back to the world if another Outsider finds you here, he won't do you any favors"
"Thanks for the advice."
I went back home, laid down in my bed and took off my mask to get in contact with the gas which took effect and put me back to sleep.
I started again where I had left off. Next to them was the Nolan Cowleen stuff.
"What, he's still not back?!"
I now had several strings to my bow. I already knew what the third paycheck was and how to get out of it.
