Scene 5.0: Port Town Anthon, Mac-King Restaurant, 5:15, Friday December 14th, Year 2998 Of The Maximilian Calendar
Inside the restaurant, The Black Swan is eating a Large Banana Split with all the trimmings as Alocez arrives and sits at her table.
Alocez
Lv.58 Knight [Originally Lv.68]
HP: 1026/2013, MP: 122/244
Average Offense Stats, Very Low Defense Stats Due To Traumatic Injury Cause By The Black Swan.
Special Skill: Hyper-Drive Stats Booster (Flawed)
??? (Black Swan):
You are late. But you are lucky I am in a forgiving mood at the moment…
(Glare)
…unless you can find a way to sour it.
Alocez:
(Scared)
Nonono! None Of That!! Shame On Me If I Did!!!
??? (Black Swan):
Good. If you were to annoy me again…I will remove one of your lungs and sell it off.
Alocez:
You don't mind if we start the briefing?
??? (Black Swan):
What do you have on my target?
Alocez:
(Brings Out Folder With Pictures)
This is what that Wretch Roux looked like when she was Level 200. This is what she looks like now.
??? (Black Swan):
Can she still use her Signature Weapon?
Alocez:
No. Somehow when she was reverted to Level 1, her Signature Weapon did not suffer the same fate.
??? (Black Swan):
Good. Even at a low level, The Blood Breaker Broadsword is still a dangerous weapon that can even take out a high level opponent.
Alocez:
These are the ones accompanying her. A Dwarf Child around 9 of age named Kubō; A young human girl around the same age named MOMO which I am starting to hate her parents by naming her after the Crimson Frenzy.
??? (Black Swan):
(Annoyed)
I did warn you about ruining the mood.
Alocez:
(Scared)
What did I say!?
??? (Black Swan):
Continue with the briefing before I decide to take one of your eyes along with your lung.
Alocez:
(Clears Throat)
And then there's this mysterious young man named Ken.
??? (Black Swan):
(Shocked, Takes Ken's Picture)
Ken…
Alocez:
You know him?
??? (Black Swan):
(Regains Composure, Returns Ken's Picture)
No…he reminds me of someone I once knew. But he is not that man.
Alocez:
He's a Level 100 Base Job Class and what is shocking about that is that his stats are maxed out. Even at Level 173, you are going to have a hard time.
??? (Black Swan):
The downside of being a Base Job Class is that the number of equipment you can use and it lack Job Exclusive Skills. Even if he is at maxed level with max stats, it won't matter if he can't use the majority of Weapons or Job Skills.
Alocez:
I overheard that he was supposed to have gotten a Job Class on Cüer, but for some unknown reason he appeared nearby The Black Obelisk Castle just recently on The Crimson Sands Desert. After that, Makoto-Sama found them in the Forest of Carnage and brought them to the outpost.
??? (Black Swan):
You don't say? Very well. When will they get here?
Alocez:
Breakfast should have started at the outpost. They should leave the outpost and come to this Port Town between 800 and 900 hours. They have been denied transport due to our forces to be on standby after the Dark Kingdom lead an assault on us and destroyed all of our teleporters.
??? (Black Swan):
You do have backups, don't you?
Alocez:
We do, but those are for Alliance use only. It's not for civilian use and now thanks to her situation, that woman is now a civilian and she isn't allowed to use it. Also…that info is top secret, how did you—?
??? (Black Swan):
It's me, remember?
Alocez:
(Spooked)
Rrriiight…I really don't want to know anymore…But what I do want to know is how will you deal with her?
??? (Black Swan):
Nothing.
Alocez:
(Surprised)
Nothing!?
??? (Black Swan):
Nothing until they get here. I will let themselves relax for a little while and as soon as 1030 Hours hits, then I begin the hunt.
Alocez:
Are you sure?
??? (Black Swan):
How long have I been an Assassin, Welp?
Alocez:
(Scared)
Forgive me, My Lady! I am but a worthless fool that knows no better!
??? (Black Swan):
The payment?
Alocez:
(Bag Full Of Silver)
1,000 Silver Coins. I will pay you 10,000 Gold Coins once the job is over.
??? (Black Swan):
(Amused Smile)
Well done. You learned from last time.
Alocez:
(Scared, Sweating Profusely)
I had to! You cut out one of my kidneys for not paying you enough last time and now you just threaten me to cut out one of my lungs and eyes.
??? (Black Swan):
When I teach someone a lesson, I make sure you learn it on the spot. Understand?
Alocez:
Yes, Ma'am! I'm A Pretty Fast Learner, Ma'am! Lightning Fast, Ma'am!
The Black Swan looks at Roux's picture with disdain, but her gaze shifts to Ken's Picture where he looks happy fills her with anger and sadness as she secretly swipes it and places it in her bag without Alocez noticing and even if she did, The Black Swan would claim her eyes.
Scene 5.1: Dark Kingdom Borders, Alliance Outpost, 5:25
Ken and Kubō spent the night in a room given to them by Makoto while Roux and MOMO are in the next room over as Roux is being under watch due to everyone in the outpost not trusting her. After getting up, they all hit the showers, fix themselves up, and heads to the Mess Hall to eat breakfast. At the table, Makoto joins them as everyone is looking at their direction with distrust. This annoys Roux to no end, but understand why he's doing this so she let's it slide as Ken smiles on seeing Roux showing restraint against her "Enemy". An hour later, Ken and his Party get ready to head to Anthon as they do a last minute check on their equipment as Makoto approaches them.
Makoto:
Are you all ready?
Ken:
Just finished checking out gear. But I don't have a Melee Weapon now that the Lucas Sword has downgraded.
Makoto:
That was a very strange occurrence. A Lucas Sword should not be able to power-up in such a manner. Even upgrading it to 6-Stars, it should have not evolved to take that form.
Ken:
Then how it became like that?
Makoto:
That I do not know. But none in Lyriah has the power to do what you did.
Ken:
Not even an outsider from another world like me?
Makoto:
(Shakes Head)
None. Whatever power you were given, it has not been seen ages.
Ken:
How long exactly?
Makoto:
3,000 Years.
Roux:
(Saddened)
Maximilian-Sama…
Ken:
The Late King of the Dark Kingdom?
Makoto:
Maximilian-Dono was the most powerful being in the world until his unfortunate death.
Ken:
What Job Class was he?
Makoto:
A Diabolic Rogue.
Ken:
The Polar Opposite of a Seraphic Rogue.
Makoto:
Legends say that the Diabolic Rogue wants World Peace through ethical and moral litigation. But his death would create a rift in that will plunge the world to a war that would last for 3,000 Years. Only the Seraphic Rogue that will appear A Year before the end of the 3rd Millennia, can save the world from disaster.
Roux:
(Annoyed Scoff)
Such a fairy-tale. The Seraphic Rogue is a myth. If he really is going to exist, he'll be appearing as soon as next year, which is downright ridiculous.
Makoto:
I do not believe in the Seraphic Rogue myself, but the woman I loved once taught me that Darkness Cannot Survive Without Light and the inverse is also the truth. Light Cannot Survive Without Darkness. There has to be a balance to everything.
Ken:
I agree with that idea. Also, "The Woman You Loved"?
Makoto:
(Amused Chuckle)
I promise to tell you all about it, Ken-Dono. But unfortunately now is not possible as my duties to protect this outpost comes first.
Ken:
(Smiling)
I look forward to it when you are free to tell me.
Makoto:
(Hearty Laugh)
That is a promise, my friend.
Kubō:
We better leave, Kenny. We need to get you your Job Class, Equipment and items. I bet Roux-Sama needs to do her own shopping as well as MOMO-Chan.
Ken:
I guess you are right.
(Bows)
Thank you for everything, Makoto-San.
Makoto:
Don't mention it, my friend. I hope you succeed in making your way to Cüer. Remember to follow the path I suggested. The monsters there are at high levels, but their stats are low enough that even Roux-Kun can deal with them in her current state.
Roux:
(Annoyed Sigh)
At least I'll level up as high as Level 30 going through there. Once I reach that level, I can equip my Bronze Set.
Ken:
Don't worry, Roux-San. Once I get my Job Class, we can go on Quests so I can help you get back to Level 200.
Alliance Soldiers:
(Shocked)
ARE YOU NUTS!?!?!?
Roux:
(Blushing, Happy Yet Sad Smile)
Thank you for your concern, Ken-Sama, but…I can no longer reach Level 200 because I lost my prestige among my people. Without it, it is impossible for me to return to such heights in power.
Ken:
I don't believe that! I know that there is a way for you to regain your lost power and I will help you regain it and save MOMO-Chan from her situation.
Roux:
(Blushing, Moved, Love-Struck, Smiling)
💓Ken-Sama!!!💓
Alliance Soldiers:
(Shocked)
EEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHH!?!?!?
Makoto:
(Amused Smile, Thinking)
Careful. That Type of Chivalry is what all women on Lyriah are looking for a Potential Husband and it seems Roux-Kun is one of these women as well. I wonder how many possible brides will you acquire with that Chivalry of yours?…I will be keeping a close eye on you, Ken-Dono.
Ken and his Party take their leave as everyone sees them off, but questions Ken's friendly demeanor towards Roux who have been their enemy for practically all of their lives. As they pass through the recommended route provided by Makoto, they managed to reach Anthon and Level up Roux to 28 as they arrive at the Port Town of Anthon.
Scene 5.2: Port Town Anthon, 9:09
Upon arriving at Anthon, Ken is in awe as the word "Town" in its name doesn't do it justice as Anthon is more of a bustling economic metropolis full of not only humans, but all races from around the World of Lyriah which also includes Demons formerly from the Dark Kingdom. Everyone are friendly with each other that Ken doesn't see any animosity towards each other; all he sees is everyone actually unity that he has rarely seen in his life back on Earth. The buildings in Anthon looks like what he has seen in RPG Video Games where the most prominent cities are the most advance of all, the pillar that keeps the world balance.
MOMO:
(Smiling)
What do you think, Kenny?
Ken:
(Smiling, Excited)
This is awesome! This isn't a town at all! This is a city!
Kubō:
Actually, Kenny…this is a Town Economy.
Ken:
Town Economy?
Kubō:
It's a town which economic structure is so refined and perfected that at first glance it looks like a city, but in reality it is a town. A good number of the people you see here commute to Anthon, they don't live here.
Ken:
So the majority of them don't live here?
Kubō:
Yep-yep! They live in rural locations nearby. There is a superstition here in Lyriah that Big Towns or Cities are dens of debauchery. I know Anthon isn't one, but everyone knows that if a certain number of people start to live in Anthon, then this town will be corrupted filled with evil.
Ken:
Actually that's not a superstition where I come from, it's a fact. The bigger the community is in one location, the greater the corruption will become. I even lived in an area that was once very peaceful, but as soon as our numbers increased, crimes skyrocketed.
Roux:
That's how the denizens of the Demon World destroy all civilizations throughout history, Shonen.
Kubō:
(Surprised, Pulls Out Notebook)
Really!? Huh…I will make a note of that.
Ken:
Where is the Adventurers' Guild?
Roux, MOMO:
Near the center of town.
Ken, Kubō:
(Worried Expression)
Roux:
I come here to buy certain items from time to time.
MOMO:
And I come here to find for a cure to my curse.
Kubō:
Are you sure that's just it?
Roux, MOMO:
(Annoyed Glare)
That's…Just…It!
Kubō:
(Nervous)
Sorry for questioning you!
Ken:
Let's head to Guild. I need to get a Job Class.
Kubō:
I'll lead the way. Follow me.
As they head to the Adventurers' Guild, The Black Swan along with Alocez are following them from the shadows. Upon arriving at the Adventurers' Guild, everyone is shocked to see Blood Breaker Roux casually waltzing in without a worry in the world, but as soon as the adventurers use their Scan Ability a good number of them start to laugh to see the once feared and despised Level 200 Devil is now at Level 28 laughingstock. MOMO is furious to see them all mocking her mom that she is wishing to be back in her true form and make them all regret mocking her beloved Mama.
Guild Clerk (Female):
Hello, sir. How can I assist you today?
Ken:
Yes. I'm here to be an Adventurer and I need a Job Class.
Guild Clerk (Female):
Very Well. Place your hand in this terminal so we can determine your stats for each Job Class and you can decide which one—
Ken:
No thanks. I already chosen what Job Class I want.
Roux:
(Sad Smile)
You will be a Wonderful Pirate, Ken-Sama.
Guild Clerk (Female):
(Brings Out 20 Character Job Class Cards)
Very Well, Sir. Please Choose Your Class By Picking The Desired Card.
Roux and MOMO looks away in sadness as they were hoping for Ken to choose any Job Class except for Pirate; Ken chooses his Job as the card he picked started to glow a rainbow color that everyone in the Guild are surprised even the Guild Clerk as choosing a Job Class has never been as flashy as Ken's as his appearance starts to change. His clothes from Cloth switches to Black Leather similar to something Goths wear, a metal gauntlet that covers his entire right arm, a Templar Breastplate and strangely enough, a futuristic visor with an antenna included on its left earpiece. But the Job Cards are still glowing which means he still have another Job Class to pick and he chooses "Sword Expert". Since Ken had to choose 2 Job Classes that means he chose to be a "Rogue" and this impresses both Roux and MOMO to the point they fall in love with him even more especially that his Default Rogue Appearance is very alluring to them. Ken takes a look at himself and he feels oddly weird as his Base Level from 100 is now at Level 1 since he switched Job Classes.
Ken:
Seriously? This look is a little too much. Can't I change it, Kubō?
Kubō:
Yeah…we'll need to head to the market for that.
Ken:
Hmm? Why is everyone is looking at me like that?
Kubō:
Well…your Job Initiation was a little too flashy.
Ken:
How so?
Kubō:
Well…Rainbow Light coming out of a Job Class Card is unheard of. Sure you get a specific light, but rainbow? No one can draw that even someone claiming they have a rainbow heart.
Ken:
Yeah…I don't like braggarts either. I was taught to judge people by merits.
Roux, MOMO:
(Blushing, Moved, Love-Struck, Smiling)
💓Ken-Sama!!! You Are So Glorious!!!💓
Guild Clerk (Female):
(Clears Throat)
Yes! Um…what is the name you are registering with?
Ken:
Aramaki Ken.
Everyone:
(Paying Close Attention)
Guild Clerk (Female):
From this moment on your name will be on the record. Aramaki Ken. Job Class: Rogue. Currently Level 1. Rogue Extension 1: Sword Expert. What skill do you want as a starter skill?
Ken:
Hey Kubō, is Akimbo a separate skill?
Kubō:
Akimbo is not a skill. If you want to dual wield a specific weapon, you can do so without expediting skill points.
Ken:
You also told me of other skills while we were coming here…I think I know the one I want to get. Miss? I want the "Stat Distributor" Skill.
Everyone:
(Shocked)
EEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHH!?!?!?
Guild Clerk (Female):
(Looking At Skill List)
Stat Distributor? Description: A Skill That Allows To Temporarily Grant Stat Boost To Any Party Member Of Your Choosing By Giving Up Part Of Your Own Stats. The Skill Can Only Be Used Once A Day And To 1 Of Your Party Members Only, You Cannot Use This On Yourself. The Higher The Level, You Can Distribute Small Amounts Of Your Stats To Grant Large Boost To Said Party Member. The Higher The Star Rank, The Longer The Boost Will Last And You Can Distribute Your Stats To More Party Members. Are you sure this is the skill you want?
Ken:
Yeah. I mean…my Party already have the Scan Skill unlocked, so why bother have it if everyone has it too?
Guild Clerk (Female):
Good point. Very well.
(Gives Ken Gold Coin)
Activate this Gold Coin and the Skill is yours.
Ken tosses the coin in the air, it shatters and grants him the skill. In order to use Stat Distributor, Ken needs to have 100 HP, 100 MP and 100 STM in order to be used. HP and MP can be gained through rest and food, while STM is gained through special potions or during combat. The more Points is used to activate the skill, the higher the power boost becomes. STM Quick Gain can be boosted with accessories while Specific Equipment can raise STM to go over 100. STM cannot be raised through leveling up.
Guild Clerk (Female):
Thank you for registering to the Adventurers' Guild in Anthon. Remember to register and update your logs in the other Adventurers' Guild all over the World. Have a nice day.
Ken:
(Smiling)
Likewise! Alright…Kubō, MOMO-Chan, Roux-San. Let's go shopping!
As Ken and his party leaves the guild as they are unaware that The Black Swan and Alocez are following them. Upon arriving at the commercial district everyone is still looking at Roux with disdain and weariness, believing she's still a danger that will attack them sooner or later. Noticing that no one likes Roux, The Black Swan thinks to herself, screw it and attacks her from behind. But even if her power has been reset and now is back at Level 28, her passive skills have not been lost and managed to sense The Black Swan's Deep Hatred For Her and avoids her attack. When Ken, MOMO and Kubō notice this; Ken jumps in to help Roux while Kubō is protecting MOMO. At first Roux didn't recognize her, but as soon as Roux notices her mask, she recognizes her.
Roux:
(Glaring)
You are…The Assassin known as The Black Swan…
??? (Black Swan):
You remember me. I'm glad.
Ken:
Who?
Kubō:
The Black Swan. A Human Assassin That Has Made A Name For Herself For Almost 3,000 Years.
Ken:
(Surprised)
Wait!? A 3,000 Year-Old Human!? That's impossible! Humans can only live a maximum of 150 Years!
Kubō:
I know…but I'm not lying! This is a 3,000 Year-Old Human!!!
Ken:
Black Magic? Immortality? Fountain Of Youth? A Philosopher's Stone? A Pact With A Demon?
??? (Black Swan):
None of the above.
Ken:
Then how? How are you still alive for 3,000 Years?
??? (Black Swan):
You always had the top scores at school, Ken. Figure it out.
Ken:
(Surprised)
What did you say!?
??? (Black Swan):
Don't make me repeat myself.
Ken:
You…Know Me!?
??? (Black Swan):
.......................................…
Ken:
Silent Treatment? Thank you for confirming to me that you know me.
??? (Black Swan):
(Amused Chuckle)
Then answer me: Who Am I?
Ken:
Take off that mask and I can tell you.
??? (Black Swan):
You know that that is cheating, Ken.
Ken:
Okay…then let me change the subject for now. Why are you after Roux-San?
??? (Black Swan):
I was hired to do a Job. There's nothing more to it.
Ken:
That attack just now was full of resentment.
??? (Black Swan):
Everyone has their reasons for wanting her dead. I am no exception.
Ken:
And your reasons are?
??? (Black Swan):
None of your business.
Ken:
Roux-San is my friend! I won't let you kill her without telling me why you resent her this much.
??? (Black Swan):
Does it matter?
Ken:
An Assassin never takes a Job with an emotional stake in it. You showing and admitted on how much you hate Roux-San, this is more than just a Hit-Job to you than you care to admit.
??? (Black Swan):
(Furious)
3 Years…
Ken:
3 Years? What about the last 3 years?
??? (Black Swan):
I have been looking for…I have been looking for…for 3 Years…I finally found…And…Having fun With A Devilish Monster!!!
Ken:
Wait! Were you…omitting words just now?
??? (Black Swan):
.......................................…
Ken:
Can I ask you one question?
??? (Black Swan), Ken:
You already have.
Everyone:
(Shocked)
Roux:
(Shocked)
Ken…Sama…You…You know her!?
Ken:
(Shocked)
I…I don't believe this…YAYOI!!! YAYOI, IS THAT YOU!?
At that moment, the Black Swan removes her mask, Ken is distraught seeing that his Childhood Friend who he was in loved with is an Assassin. When Ken looks at her eyes, he sees nothing but death as the light he used to see in her eyes back on Earth is not there anymore. All he sees is a woman that hates everything and everyone.
Yayoi (The Black Swan):
Long time no see, Ken.
Ken:
Yayoi? What are you doing here? The only way to be in this world is…
(Distraught)
…Yayoi…what…what happened?
Yayoi:
After losing my brother…You actually thought that I could bear losing you too? That day when I lost you…my whole world fell apart. Makoto-San…she was the same way. I locked myself in my apartment for days.
Ken:
(Thinking)
I know…my ghost was visiting you both while I was stuck on Earth.
Yayoi:
I…I was under medication ever since my brother was taken from me.
Ken:
(Out Loud)
What!? You never told me that!!
Yayoi:
I never told anyone. But Ken…I never once took 1 Pill from it. Because you were my medication. You made me happy, safe…you were my world. But then…I lost you and my happy and safe world died with you. I…I had nothing to live for…not anymore…The day of your funeral…I took my medication and I—
Ken:
(Distraught, Having Flashback Of His Time With Yayoi)
SHUT UP!!! I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT!!! IT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!! YOU ARE NOT THAT TYPE OF GIRL, YAYOI!!!
Yayoi:
But I did do it. After I died…I was told you were already sent to this world. So when I got here, I decided to look for you, but I never found you…for 3 years…I never found you.
Ken:
(Shocked)
3…Years!? But Yayoi…I arrived in Lyriah 2 Days Ago.
Yayoi:
(Furious)
DON'T LIE TO ME!!! YOU DIED LONG BEFORE I DID!!! HOW CAN YOU ARRIVE LATER THAN ME!?!?!?
Ken:
It was a Klutz of An Angel. I'm sure of it!!
Yayoi:
I don't know what is more insulting…You hanging around that Monster Or You Lying To Me!!!
Ken:
Yayoi! I'm Not Lying! Before Coming Here I Met An Angel That Was So Much Of A Klutz, She—
Yayoi:
I can't believe you would stoop so low, Ken. Placing the blame on an Angel…Or maybe…this Monster has brainwashed you into believing such lies.
(Yandere Expression, Pulls Out Basilisk Fang & Licks It)
Don't worry, Ken. When I kill her, we can go back like we used to. No one will take you away from me ever again.
Ken:
Yayoi…
Roux:
Ken-Sama. I'm afraid that she's no longer the girl you once knew. I'm afraid that the only way to save her is to fight her.
Ken:
Wait! Did you say…"Save Her"?
Roux:
Her heart is in deep pain right now and I know you do not want her to die, so I will do my best to save her…Especially…I have a score to settle with The Black Swan.
Ken:
I'm trusting you to save Yayoi, Roux-San.
Roux:
(Warm Smile)
Anything for you, Ken-Sama.
(Serious Stare)
Let's finish this Bad Blood Between Us born almost 3,000 Years Ago…Nikita.
As the fight between Black Swan Yayoi and Blood Breaker Roux is about to begin, a small shadow appears behind Yayoi with glowing Green Eyes shining in an evil light as no one can see it except for Roux and Ken, who wonders what is that small ball of darkness hovering behind his childhood friend.

😸Creator-Ojisan And😈MOMO-Chan's Discussion Corner!!!
Creator (SS):
Hey Troops! Welcome to All The New And Returning Readers to—
(I Get Hit By MOMO-Chan's Evil Cat Plushie And It Feels Oddly Warm)
MOMO:
(Furious)
.......................................…
Creator (SS):
(I Sigh Annoyingly)
What is it this time, MOMO-Chan?
MOMO:
You lied to me.
Creator (SS):
Where did I lie?
MOMO:
You said me and Mama fought the Black Swan, but it turns out to be Kenny's Childhood Friend!
Creator (SS):
You did fought her. I can't believe I am doing this, but I will describe a small detail that happened before this discussion started. Your Mom said to The Black Swan: "Let's finish this Bad Blood Between Us born almost 3,000 Years Ago…Nikita". Then I followed that up with "A small shadow appears behind Yayoi with glowing Green Eyes shining in an evil light".
MOMO:
(Desperately Search Lines In Script)
Huh? You are right.
Creator (SS):
See? I told you that I didn't—
(She Now Throws The Script At My Face)
MOMO:
(Furious)
YOU STILL LIED TO ME!!!
Creator (SS):
(I Get Annoyed By Her Stubbornness)
Oy, Vey…Here we go again. Where's this lie now?
MOMO:
You said that the Black Swan is Human! That "A small shadow appears behind Yayoi with glowing Green Eyes shining in an evil light" doesn't sound Human to me!
Creator (SS):
She is human, but—
MOMO:
(Pouting)
Spoiler Territory! You are such a Cop-Out, Ojisan!
Creator (SS):
(I Sigh)
Wait until next entry so I can explain everything. Okay?
MOMO:
Humph!
Creator (SS):
Fine. I will tell you in the form of a Riddle.
MOMO:
(Hesitant)
Okay?
Creator (SS):
How can a Human become a Powerful Being without resorting to becoming a demon?
MOMO:
There are ways…she could—
(Figures It Out)
AAAHHH!!! SHE'S—
Creator (SS):
STOPPU!!! NONONONO!!! NONE OF THAT!!! SHAME ON YOU!!!
MOMO:
I know, I know: Spoilers…Why do you even care!?
Creator (SS):
The fans deserve excitement so long as it is not insulting.
MOMO:
But what if you do write something insulting?
Creator (SS):
At first it might seem insulting, but just wait until the story reach a certain point. I promise to make it right by the character's arc or somewhere along the way. A Character story takes time to build like a Jigsaw Puzzle. You just don't force a piece that doesn't fit or doesn't belong. If you want to do so, try to make it fit within the character's boundaries. For example...a character that everyone loves that never practice psychology. Put in why she decided on "Why" she went out of her way to actually study Psychology and in a way that it isn't insulting, the fans will let it slide and say: "Huh? That Makes Sense".
MOMO:
You did that?
Creator (SS):
I'm planning to, but I never explained it because the episode ended in a deliberate cliffhanger last time.
MOMO:
Deliberate?
Creator (SS):
It's ending the episode in a way that makes the readers say "WTF!? Is That It!?".
MOMO:
That's not nice.
Creator (SS):
Hey! Sometimes you need to end the episode like that and it always works so long as the follow up makes it up to the fans. Then there's a character that has never been the violent type, but there are reasons for them to get violent on a moments notice.
MOMO:
Example?
Creator (SS):
How did you felt when everyone has been insulting your Mom throughout this whole episode?
MOMO:
(Furious)
I WANTED THEM DEAD!!!
(Clears Throat, Calms Down)
Sorry about that.
Creator (SS):
(I Sigh)
No worries, I know what you are going through. We still have around 300 Words left. Want to ask something before we close?
MOMO:
Alocez looks like an idiot.
Creator (SS):
I was inspired by an idiot. Alocez is everything people hates: Narcissistic, Cowardly, Thinks she deserves everything without doing nothing and wants to win arguments with no evidence, like a con artist.
MOMO:
Wining Arguments With No Evidence!?
(Laughs Hysterically)
What is she? A Psychopath?
Creator (SS):
No need to say it, you did it for me.
MOMO:
Her Special Skill: Hyper-Drive Stats Booster (Flawed). Why did you write (Flawed) in there?
Creator (SS):
Do you remember that Yayoi had to remove one of Alocez's kidneys because she was planning on swindling her? Well…Alocez's Special Skill didn't have that "(Flawed)" Subtitle…and she was originally at Level 68 and had pretty high stats. But after Yayoi removed her kidney for trying to pull a fast one on her, Alocez's stats dropped drastically that she lost 10 levels, getting weaker in the process and all of her skills now cause self-damage…all of them. That's why it's flawed now.
MOMO:
Even her healing skills!?
Creator (SS):
Yeah, pretty rough, huh? If Yayoi removes more organs, Alocez will not only suffer another level down, but her stats will be so low, she won't be a soldier anymore and she won't be using her skills anymore either since they have more of a chance to kill her than the ones she will be fighting.
MOMO:
That's pretty horrible…HOLD IT!!!
Creator (SS):

MOMO:
Where is Mama and Yayoi fighting?

In the commercial district which is a very populated area.
MOMO:

Creator (SS):
You really don't want me to answer that.
MOMO:
