In the heat of summer, sunlight pierced my skin like a poison tipped arrow. As i stood in the lookout post, the beads of perspiration dripped down my cheeks and onto my grass green uniform. It looked as if there was an open tap spewing down my face, making this unbearable heat even worse.
I stood emotionless. The sweat on my brow dripped past my eyelashes and stung my eye. God damn, that security manager took away the umbrella in the post just to pick on me, the newcomer to the security department. It's okay, I'll be the better man and not complain… Damn you, I'm dying of heat here.
My name is Leo lee subaru. What an uncommon name, isn't it? My parents hoped that i would grow a deal with bullies and help the poor, but i could not live up to their expectations. One could only describe me as ordinary, seeing that i have only worked for less than two months in some Pure Gold market company as part of security. I've had to hear the shame and discipline required to go a dew days without food, all because this job couldn't afford me three good meals a day. I didn't even have a full security uniform and had to work a daily afternoon shift, which forced me to bear this summer heat in the first place. My life was as better as the juice squeeze from a bitter gourd2.
Moreover, I've fantasized about meeting beautiful women in uniform before, but in the two months I've been here, nothing of the sort happened. The women here were so ugly when without makeup they could scare someone out of their wits, and even if they put on makeup they would still make you defecate in your pants.
As i shifted my gaze away to the company building in the distance, a womam exited. She was Elis Becker, the flowers of the banking department. Her chest and legs were 9 points, however her face was only 1 point.
Elis Becker knew me, and she swayed her hips, walking out of the building leisurely. She had heels of at least 7 cm4 and her slender snow white pair of legs set in full display. She stopped at the lookout post, smiles, and says: "Leo, 'Eternal Requiem' opens the day after tomorrow. Do you want to continue working this boring security job? Or do you want to follow me and join the group out banking department is making to be our goon? You know. I obtained the limited edition gear helmet…"
I glanced at the black helmet, which indeed the recently released Eternal Requiem limited edition helmet. This helmet cost at least 1,530,800 Yen and my monthly wage was only 156,455 Yen. What a long shot!
Looking forward, i said with neither arrogance nor servility, "That would be too unfair to you, Miss Elis. I must work to earn my keep."
Elis then raised the helmet, bending her waist. It revealed her two mountains. "You know, this Big Sister over here really likes your ice-cold demeanor. You should think about this carefully. If you change your mind, i can provide you with three meals a day and a game card. Also…"
She raised her head to look at me seductively, buttocks bending upwards very obviously saying "if you do well, a special reward as well" while smiling sultry.
I remained silent until the tactful flower of the banking department departed, to which i breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
The security manager Nezo coughed, saying with a smile: "Leo, Elis Becker has a taken a liking towards you, hasn't she?"
I remained silent and stood there, allowing the Sun to continue to roast me, like an Australian roasted chicken. I felt like i was steaming up.
To be honest, Elis was not the one that tempted me the most. Yes, it was the game, "Eternal Requiem". Taking 10 years of development to produce, "Eternal Requiem" boasted 97% realism, compared to the paltry 39% of those before. Additionally, to the rookie me who has not touched VRMMOs at all, how could i not be tempted? Sadly, my monthly wage was too pathetic to afford this luxury.
My body trembled a little, and just as i began to suspect that i really had been roasted, Nezo suddenly shouted: "Leo, you don't have to keep watch anymore, Jiro wants you to lend a hand at the photograp department. It's the weekend and there's a group of models taking pictures, which is why they've short of manpower.
"Okay, I got it."
The photograph department is at the 7th floor. They normally invite some stars or models to photograph to promote some new products. As for who is here today, I did not know.
As I entered the 7th floor, the staff recognized me immediately. "Leo, go to the filming studio and help us move the boxes quickly."
I knew it! I really had the life of a box-mover.
"Hi, do you know who is getting photographed today?" He pats my shoulder and asks.
"Nope, whoever is getting photographed does not concern me in the slightest." I replied while shaking my head.
He smile. "No wonder you haven't had a girlfriend all your life, you're so stubborn!"
Haven't had a girlfriend!
These four words had the weight of 4 heavy punches to my heart, hurting myself confidence.
"Who is it that is making you so excited?" I asked.
A huge star, man. And she has beauty beyond measure! You should consider yourself lucky to even get to see such a goddess. It's your lucky day!"
"Forget the star, I'm only here to move boxes."
"…"
Upon entering the film studio, before I even finished moving the boxes, the film director shouted: "Leo!. go to the 13th warehouse and grab me a ladder. Go quickly!"
"Okay!"
I am an integral part of the company, whenever stuff needs to be moved, I'll be there. With this attitude, i would have been the CEO soon.
Sprinting to the warehouse door, I tried to open it and realised it was locked. Well it was fine as i had the key anyway. Grabbing the bunch of keys, I confirmed that i had taken the correct key and opened the door.
Swish!
As the door opened. I briskly walked inside, only to hear a shrick. The scene Infront my eyes almost paralyzed me
There was a perfect nose bleed scenario here. It was a young woman with an extremely exquisite body, who seemingly was changing clothes. In her hand was a pink bra that was not worn yet, and her twin peaks trembled slightly. There were two flesh coloured strawberries. Panning downward, silk covered her private parts and beyond that there were a pair of pearls like long legs. It was simply stunning!
She was shocked speechless and stood there in a daze, staring at me for a full two seconds with her eyes full of anger, before calmly saying: "Who are you?"
I was also stunned. Not saying a word. I immediately slammed the door shut.
