NOVEL WEB Chapter 11: Central City
"Mmmmm, I loved that," Sylvia pulled back after another kiss. "Will I get the part?"
"Nope, but did you notice the door just swung open."
"I didn't" Sylvia replied to her partner. "It's probably just the wind. Round 3?"
Harvard took a deep breath and ran as fast as he could back to the local inn. He payed 1000 Lograms for the nicest room he could get, and jumped down on the bed.
[Mission Update: Return the quest to Count Silvester!]
"Never! Never doing that again! Omg! What a rush, haha!" Harvard wiped his sweat off his forehead. "I never had to observe women kissing so up close before! I wonder what will happen next!"
[May Tape has requested your current location.]
[Would you like to send her your coordinates?]
"Sure," Harvard took a deep breath. "Now all I have to do is rob people tomorrow and I'll be all set!"
"Can I come in!" May Tape knocked on the door. "I'm being chased! I'm on the run!"
"This-this is the third time today," Harvard opened the door for May and immediately slammed it shut. "What happened?"
"I-I need a bawth! I'm dirty from trying to steal from a gardener!" May Tape slammed the bathroom door shut. "Naw, no peaking! Pwrivacy!"
"It's my bathroom," Harvard grumbled and looked around the room. "Oh well, at least the bed splits in half. I guess we can both sleep here."
Harvard took a deep breath and smiled. It had been an eventful two weeks. He'd killed 10,000 ghost slimes and… got to see a woman's bathroom. He'd never imagined they looked just like a guys bathroom but without the urinals.
[New System Mission is available.]
[New Hidden Class has been discovered!]
[Would you like to see, Y / N?]
###
"Yes" Harvard had nothing to lose. Becoming a phantom hand had been impossible, so could it really get much harder?
[System Quest Granted]
[Unlock the Ultimate Midnight Ruler Class]
[A small letter has been put in your inventory that needs to be delivered to the Midnight King. You will have to through mountains, valleys, and defeat monstrous beasts to even knock on his door! You will not be disappointed when you arrive at your destination!]
[Mission Difficulty: F-]
'If it's so difficult, why is it rated F-? I'll have more trouble getting the bathroom tonight."
Harvard walked over to the bed and separated the mattress into two pieces.
He sighed and looked at the bed.
[Master Bed]
[Durability 500 / 500]
[This bed has never been used by any man]
'I'm tired." Harvard yawned and collapsed onto the bed. "May! I separated the mattresses! Shut the lights off when you're out of the tub!"
"I'm scared. Can we sleep with the w-lights on?"
"You mean the lights?" Harvard laughed and put a pillow over his head. "Sure, just get dressed and come out. See you in the morning!"
###
Harvard turned over and looked at a fully dressed May. She pulled down a green skirt and smiled at herself in the mirror.
"Today, I'm going to rob a farmer! IF that doesn't work, a beggar might!"
"Good luck with that," Harvard couldn't help but wonder if she changed in the room while he was sleeping. He got up and went to the basin to wash his face. "However, before you do that, you want to help me on a dangerous Quest!"
"Sure, ugh, but after I change this bra! It's too tight!"
"I'll wait outside," Harvard blushed and decided to just go down to the lobby. He smiled at the front desk worker and then opened his Quest Window.
[Current Quests] [3/6]
[Rob them Blind] [D]
[Return the Quest to Count Selvester] [D-]
[Unlock the Ultimate Midnight Ruler Class] [F-]
'Ugh, I guess I'll return the Quest to Count Selvester, and rob a few people on the way.' Harvard looked across the lobby and saw May falling down the stairs. All of a sudden, he didn't want to walk with her outside anymore.
"Heh, well, I'm ready!" May Tape fixed her green top and rushed to Harvard. "Where are we going."
"Somewhere incredibly dangerous. If it gets bad, you might have to run."
###
"Welcome! Welcome to the Midnight King's Nightmare Plaza!" An NPC in a white suit with blue stripes on his sleeves and a slender frame jumped up and down. "Are you brave enough to go through mountains, valleys, and defeat vicious monsters in order to meet the Midnight King? Only 150 Lograms for a chance to find him!"
Harvard stared in disbelief at the haunted house that doubled as a mini-golf course. It really did have valleys, hills, and monsters, but mostly was just an overpriced tourist attraction for couples and children.
[Midnight King's Nightmare Plaza]
[Mini Golf Difficulty C-]
[Cost for one round of mini golf, 200 Lograms]
"I-I knew you liked me!" May blushed and grabbed Harvard's arm. "Well, you are kind of cute… However, this isn't a date!"
"Hey, what ar e you guys doing here?" Alpha Thunder tapped Harvard and May on the back. "Why do both of you not have a class yet? It's almost week 3. Me and the guild are about to go to Central City."
Central City was a place where most players went over level 25 to find dungeons. Dungeons came in many difficulties from F rank dungeons to S rank dungeons with 5 player, 10 player, and 100 player dungeon raids also available.
Central City was also exactly in the center of planet Kart95. It had a large train station known as Central Glory station with overpriced tickets and the worst food no one would ever buy. All guilds wanted to buy a guild House near Central Glory Square because doing so would allow them to teleport to Central Glory from anywhere else in the planet.
Unfortunately, there were only 10 guild houses in Central City, and hundreds of guilds about to kill each other in an attempt to claim them. To get one of those guild houses, first you had to complete the Unlimited Guild Association's Quest, which entailed beating some impossible monster. Harvard wasn't too invested in it.
"We will meet you there!" May Tape smiled. "I just have to rob a farmer first! However, Harvard is taking me on a romantic date because I changed in front of him this morning!"
"It's a coincidence!" Harvard replied, and shook his head. "Absolutely not a date!"
"Yo! Alpha Thunder! Stop wasting time! They're about to catch up to us!" An extremely gawky man with long slender arms fixed his silver broken glasses. His screen name was Kite Thunder, and he had lightning bolts on his white armor with a high voice. "Come on man! Bros before Hoes!"
"I-I'm sorry. Got to run! Accept my friend request, losers!" Alpha Thunder disappeared towards the train station. Harvard sighed, and accepted his friend request.
[Alpha Thunder is now your friend!]
"Sorry about what he said, May. You're not a hoe." Harvard turned and looked where May had been, but she seemed to have already started waiting in line for the haunted house. A few hundred children jumped up and clapped waiting for a chance to meet the Midnight King. It looked like they were children of NPCs. One busty blonde NPC slapped a man next to her in the face, and screamed "you cheater" before she stole her son from his hands.
'Wow, you can have children in this expansion pack. I had no idea.' Harvard looked up and down at May Tape's body a few times and then stopped at her back. She had a very sexy back. "Nah, never going to happen!"
