Scarlet
I really want to get out of here.
You promised Allen that youd at least do a single interview, so suck it up and finish. Youve been going strong so far, so just keep that up, Tar says, not showing a single ounce of pity.
Curse my greed. Why did I have to be lured into this by the thought of more credits?
I grab a bottle of water from a member of the staff on set, only for that member a man in his mid to late twenties by the looks of him to whisper to me, Theres an online stream of this going on right now. I could give you the link if you want.
My eyes widen slightly, but I just shrug and raise my arm to take my terminal off sleep mode.
What is it? I ask him, and he pulls it up on his phone, showing it to me. So I copy it into the magic web browser on my terminal before entering the stream and seeing the ads currently being shown on it. But I ignore that to instead focus on the live chat.
[TravelingTurtle Her eaaaaarrrrss!!!!]
[DreamWeaver777 Dont you just want to touch those ears?]
[FoodieFiesta No! You cant! I wont let you!]
[ArtisticSoul77 Does anyone find it weird that shes going solo? Besides me of course. Because most Guardians dont do that.]
[FitnessFanatic22 No, there are some that do it. Going solo actually gives the Guardian a lot of benefits, including but not limited to a greater amount of achievements and EXP from the System. Not to mention it gives them more freedom, so the Guardians who are actually able to go solo often do so.]
[ArtisticSoul77 Really? Are you sure about that?]
[MusicMaker101 Who cares about that! I just want her to go on her own again, because its always when shes alone that she ends up in the best battles to watch!]
[NatureNinja44 Im with MusicMaker on this one. Who cares if its normal or not?]
[FashionFrenzy99 Right? Its almost as if the stronger demons only appear when shes by herself or something.]
[GamingNerd777 I just want to touch her ears!!!]
[UrbanExplorer55 Im personally quite happy that shes gonna be splitting off from the team, because that Druid guy gives me the creeps. I mean, who creates a team of all girls leaving him as the only guy? Its just creepy.]
[ArtisticSoul77 I doubt that was on purpose. The team is really well balanced after all.]
[PixelatedDreams No, Im with Urban on this one. It really is weird.]
[StarGazer23 Ditto here. I vote that hes a perv.]
[JazzManiac He really is.]
[MountainHiker99 No, he seems like a nice guy. And besides, isnt the Little Reaper his sister?]
[PixelatedDreams Oh, you have a point there.]
[PixelPenguin Am I the only one thinking about this, or is it strange for a wolf girl to have wolf ears but no tail?]
[GamingNerd777 TAAAIIILL!! She should totally have one!]
[StarGazer23 A wolf girl? Is that a term people use?]
[ArtisticSoul77 I think its an anime thing.]
I grimace as I see some of the chat branching off into a direction that makes me feel extremely uncomfortable. So I quickly close out of the thing with a sigh.
Also, I noticed it before but didnt really think about it too much, but Michael really is the only guy in a group of four girls
Not exactly the best situation for him in a team of what are in some peoples eyes superheroes, Tar mutters, sounding kind of like he feels pity for the guy.
It isnt a problem in our team, but I can see it becoming an issue with the public. In fact, its already something there, considering the people talking in that live chat.
Not exactly the best PR for his image.
You wouldnt know the pain of being the only guy in a group of who knows how many girls, Tar says, sounding like hes speaking from experience, which has me raising a brow.
Of course, I wouldnt know how that feels. Im a girl after all.
Just try having a family built up of eight brothers and about thirty-five sisters and you will understand exactly how I feel, Tar says, making my eyes widen in shock.
What the fuck? Why do you have so many sisters compared to brothers?!
Its complicated, Tar answers, not saying any more on the subject.
Hmm.
I open my status as Im waiting for the last one or so minute of the commercial break.

Ive made a lot of progress over the last couple weeks, but unfortunately, my leveling speed drastically slowed down after I reached the point where the weaker demons in the Fractures started to not even give me EXP anymore in a group. And even if I go solo, the weakest demons still dont give any EXP.
A major problem which isnt even counting the SP problem.
One of the reasons Im gonna start going solo from the next Fracture onwards.
I also realized a major issue with my skills over this time due to my lack of SP to spend, since I havent been able to advance many of my purchased skills past level 5. Which is a much lower level than most of my inherent skills. Except for Blood Regeneration, which was the newest inherent skill, even if it was an achievement locked one.
Kind of surprised that I havent gotten another inherent skill since partial shift though.
Either way, Im done purchasing new skills for a little while, since I already have a good setup of skills for now, and I need to focus more on leveling my skills.
No use getting a high rarity purchased skill if Im stuck with it at level one where it isnt much better than another skill of a lower rarity.
Unless its legendary or mythic of course. Then Ill jump for it right away.
I tried to warn you before, but you didnt listen, Tar says, doing his version of I told you so.
Yeah, yeah. I still needed some more skills to handle other areas. But now I should be mostly handled in all fields, since life drain is able to heal others aside from just myself, I have blood regen for natural healing and mana regen, blood manifestation for ranged attacks, blood boil for debuffing, blood claws, blood sacrifice, and partial shift for straight up attack, blood retribution which I bought a week ago and blood thirst to help with my berserker method of fighting, and blood siphon and blood bank for utility, along with the regular clean, repair, and recharge.
Yeah, you should be good for now, Tar agrees before sneaking in, and Im glad you finally came around to being called a berserker.
Shut up.
A loud shattering sound echoes in the air, making me immediately look out the window where the window is still a window and not a screen to find the moon turning red as the air itself is tainted red.
At least the Demonic Assault this time has good timing. It stopped my interview after all.
