After that, Mike left for home. While he wanted to give wight lifting a try to see if he could boost his strength, he felt that it was far too late at night for him to do so. As such, he went straight to bed without doing anything else. Although he had a hard time getting to sleep at first, excited about going to the dojo and the possibility of some awesome tanky skill books, however sleep finally caught up with him and he fell into it's warm embrace

"Well I feel that this was a waste of my time," Lucian pulled out his cell phone from his pocket too check out what time it was, He gave one more look at the others then turned his back, "See you all tomorrow, try to not die before then." He then traveled back home, taking his time as he walked. Too many questions on his mind, and not enough time to answer them all, Why was he worried about the other gamers? Why did he rush off as he did? Why did he have a desire to be with them and befriend them, and if he did truly wish to befriend the fellow gamers, why was he cold to them? Would they be safe tonight? would this dojo be safe or was it a trap? Who was watching them? Why? He wasn't thinking in his usual logical manner, As he opened the door to his apartment, he flicked on his lights and locked the door behind himself, he was too flustered to focus his mind on anything else tonight, he would figure it all out tomorrow, or so he told himself as he drifted off as he flopped down on his bed face first.

Ren didn't even watch anime or play any games that night nor did he work on any Skills or anything else. After writing down a few things into the notebook he kept on his person in his Inventory for the sake of writing about this power he fell asleep on his futon immediately not moments after his small body fell upon it. There was no time in the evening to do anything else and the fight with that boss monster took a lot out of Ren and he just wanted to sleep it off. Even if they could recover stamina and exhaustion after a very short bit of rest it still took a good night's sleep to fully recover everything.

Naturally everyone else would be able to get home without a hitch and go to sleep whenever. In the morning when they would wake up, the window only appearing after they woke up it wasn't an alarm clock to wake them up, that same familiar window appeared and the Gamers would all feel rejuvenated after their sleep.

Ren got up in the morning and decided that he would go see Saito bright and early. After a quick usage of the Craft Skill on the outfit that got a bit ripped up from that battle, which was a successful use that , Ren ate the breakfast his uncle left out for him. After that it was off to Tatsumi Antiques. Well maybe not in the morning. It was 9:00 AM by the time he was ready to go and as cold and distant as Ren often was he wasn't rude enough to bother someone early in the morning. Plus it was about late afternoon when he met Saito, so he figured going in early afternoon would be the best. For now Ren decided to boot up his computer and check a few things out.

"Abyss Auction..." Ren looked at the site's opening page. Just a black screen with those words on it. Ren didn't plan on buying anything right now, well maybe that depended upon price. For now though he was just going to look around. With a click on the opening link his eyes widened. "I-It... can't be..."

Today was definitely a day worth skipping school for.

---

In the meantime Sumi and her brother Genji were at the dojo, the two of them having recently finished some very tough training as of last night, the two currently sparring with one another after waking up. "You think those three are coming today Genji?" Sumi decided to converse with her brother as they lightly sparred.

"Of course, I know the type. If that Silas fellow is anything like I think he is then they will definitely be coming today. As much as I would like it if those three just ignored their power and live their normal lives those three will probably be coming here to try and get stronger. Especially after what I saw for sale on the Abyss Auction..." Genji paused there for a few moments to briefly block a blow from Sumi, the two of them stopping their brief spar for a moment. "Its already too late for them to be normal."

"Yea, it would be better if they didn't come, but at this point... those idiots are going to need all the help they can get." After speaking and a few more brief lightly traded blows Sumi stopped their spar as the two of them after that decided to go about their business, the two of them luckily not having anywhere to be today since they both were in college at Neo Tokyo U and neither of them had classes today.

Mike woke up early that morning "today's the day! My first day of pubic school! This is so exciting I can hardly wait!: Mike found himself feeling strangely energetic, which was a very odd sensation for him; normally his body felt very lethargic, even when he was excited "It's got to be all those points I put into VIT, that's the only explanation that makes sense. I feel like...I feel like I could just run around and around. Hmmmm, maybe I should give dad's weight room a try? I've got a few hours before school starts, now might be a great time to see if it works" heading over to his dad's weight room, he picked up a pair of light dumbbells "even though my VIT is high, my STR is too low for any of the heavier stuff, I better start with the easier stuff" and with that, he began working out

Unfortunately to fully heal a full night's sleep would be required. Still Mike would feel renewed, but not as much if he woke up maybe an hour or so later. Still there wouldn't be time for a short workout otherwise, there being enough time for maybe an hour so that he wouldn't be late for his first day of school.

---

Mike's workout: 92 - 2 Str = 90

Mike's workout: 88 - 12 Vit = 76

---

Unfortunately as a recently former cripple with little physical strength to speak of working out wouldn't exactly be his forte in either the actual workout or how to go about doing so. So unfortunately even after the short hour that was all that Mike had time for, which was a decent workout time for a short workout, Mike would find that he didn't really benefit at all from the early workout, probably nearly dropping some weights a couple of times and having to take several breaks since not really knowing how to workout properly and conserve his somewhat decent amount of stamina probably also took a toll, as did getting up earlier than usual.

Waking up early again, Lucian just lied there in bed facing the ceiling. He couldn't bring himself to get out of bed yet, he had time before his first classes started in the university, and he was really starting to be bothered by his dreams. What on earth is going on in my head these days... He slapped his face with the palm of his hand, he felt fine, but still his head was a mess. He was hoping that this would be one of those dreams he would forget in a matter of minutes, but it wasn't fading away as he had hopped it would.

Looking at the clock, he realized he had just loafed away an entire hour this morning, so he finally dragged himself out of bed and whipped himself together. Due to his lack of time though, he would just be eating a few fruits and a glass of water prior to his classes, but it was better than nothing. With his books in his bag, he went to class as if it was just an ordinary day prior to him awaking as the gamer, he knew that the day would play out better though, he had studied a bunch out of his textbooks after all. Grinning Lucian took his seat, ready for his classes, the day, and what he was hoping to do after his two courses today.

"Everyone done? Aw, dang," Sasha whined to herself. With Ren's warning, the group had decided that training outside wasn't safe anymore. Sasha personally didn't think it was a problem, but it was wise to err on the side of caution. This business was dangerous.

She half-jogged back to her house, enjoying her newfound speed and stamina. In her attire she looked like someone out for an evening run, turning a few heads only because of her blonde hair and appearance. She got home slightly winded.

After dinner, she got back to her usual session of Dungeon Busters. Her improvements in manual dexterity and mental acuity was very apparent now- while she was originally quite good at the online game, Sasha's abilities were now on a whole new level. She simply had much greater reaction times, and could read into attacks much faster than she used to. It was almost... too easy. The gamer ability was a frightening power.

She slumped back during a break. What was she going to do with the gamer ability? It was clear that she was no longer a normal human. Sasha didn't know the maximum levels attainable with the gamer ability, but it was probably high enough that she could become a world-class athlete, or a genius. If she survived the leveling process and the supposed dangers of the "Abyss", success was but a small step away.

"So the question is- what do I want to do?" Sasha thought aloud. She wasn't like other people, who strove towards some sort of goal. College, or work, she had none. Sasha had been wasting the past year of her life on nothing but video games. She hadn't thought about her future in quite some time. It's not like the gamer system came with a save-the-world quest.

And in the modern world, success didn't come with how good you are at fighting. If she kept raising her intelligence and wisdom, wouldn't she become good enough to know what to do? The gamer's illogical system allowed them to get smarter by killing monsters, so why not use it? I could probably easily get a degree or a job if I was a genius. Or at least know what to do to get by. I'm still pretty young anyway, there's still time.

Eventually, Sasha went to bed and woke up shortly before noon. It was later than she had hoped to awake, so after a quick shower and meal she was out of the apartment. Outside, she quickly tapped out a message to Silas.



Like Silas, she had to search for the dojo online, but it proved to be an easy find. Sasha left without waiting for Silas's reply.

Silas headed home on his bike without saying anything else to the rest of his group. When he arrived at home, Tomoyo was already back home, as expected. Silas noticed she kept getting more worried. Usually Silas wasn't the type of person who would go out every day to do something besides Squash. He didn't have a job, and he studied at home. He only had to go when there was a test. However, because Tomoyo was still worried about Silas she asked him what he is doing all day. Silas felt a little bad, but he had to lie against her. She couldn't know about his powers. And apparently things had become a bit dangerous on the topic of The Gamer, and he didn't want Tomoyo to get involved with it.

Silas spend the rest of the evening with Tomoyo before going to bed. He woke up in the morning, earlier than normal. But Silas didn't mind, he went over his standard morning ritual and like always that ended with him playing on his PS3. After finishing another world of Kingdom Hearts I.5 HD ReMIX he got a PM from Sasha. He opened it and saw her, very poorly written, PM. She already would be going to the dojo. So Silas guessed he also had to.



Silas had accepted Sasha to be his friend. He had some troubles with her in the beginning, but he started to like her more. To be honest Sasha was the one he could get along with best out of the group. Silas hoped that Mike wasn't coming, but if he was right he should be in school now. He however didn't know about Ren or Lucian. Especially Lucian as he didn't really get to interact with him yet. Silas grabbed his bike and went to the dojo where he saw Sasha.

"Hey Sasha." Silas said calm and monotone, trying not to sound too indifferent. "So, shall we go in? I think they are expecting us."

When one of them pressed the intercom button next to the large gate a few moments passed before the large gate opened, a familiar sight for Silas but not so familiar for Sasha. Genji Ban was standing there with that same 'Heir to the Chikyū-shin no Ken' above his name, only this time his level was two levels higher than what Silas had seen the day before. He was Level 23 now instead of Level 21. He wore a simple t-shirt and a pair of jeans this time instead of the Gi he had been wearing the previous day. He looked like he was still cooling down from a difficult workout as Silas would probably recognize from his sports practices judging by his posture.

"So you decided to come after all. That's good, as today I was hoping you would. Sumi is out today and right now its really only me here since none of the other students are here because today we were expecting you to show up and figured if we were going to investigate your power it would be in private since its kind of important that we get to the bottom of what is going on with you two. Although..." Genji paused to look around and behind Sasha and Silas. "Sumi told me there were three of you... well it doesn't matter, we can start while we wait for him to show up." After that he opened up the gate further for the two of them to walk inside. "Please, come in."

After closing the gate behind them Genji lead them to a courtyard type area. It was empty, as if it was used for more outdoor training instead of what most typical courtyards are used for. "I know this may sound sudden... but you two need to tell me everything about your power and I mean everything. Sumi mentioned that one of your group said that you could see people's names, levels, and... classes... above their heads, but if you ask me there is probably more. You can trust me and no one can put any surveillance in here. The sooner we can figure out just what your power is the sooner we can begin to figure out how to train it and make it stronger and also what you probably shouldn't go around letting other people find out."

With that, Genji waited for them to respond. He seemed like a pretty decent guy, a bit laid back but willing to get serious when it counted and this seems to be one of those moments. His demeanor was friendly as he didn't demand them to explain everything, but essentially implied that if they were to figure things out that it would be for the best.

"Yeah, there was another guy, but he's at school right now," Sasha answered as she followed Genji into the courtyard. The man was much higher leveled than they were, although judging from their leveling speed it would only take a couple of weeks to reach his level. The gamer ability practically lets them cheat at reality. Genji's request for them to divulge everything about their ability made them uneasy. However, they were asking for help, so it didn't seem appropriate not to at least be polite.

"Okay... So it's sort of like an RPG?" Sasha said, but Genji's expression told her he wasn't into gaming. "A computer game, I mean. We can open up these menus that tell us our statistics and skills. And we can learn new abilities if we practice- including stuff like shooting energy bolts with our bare hands. I know it sounds crazy. I could demonstrate if you'd like."

So all of them weren't here huh? Well that made things a little complicated in training them, but Genji figured it wouldn't matter all that much. In fact he was quite glad to see that they had their normal lives in mind. Usually when at school or other places of 'normal' activity the Abyss tended to leave people alone lest they incur the wrath of Gaia or draw negative attention to themselves in other ways. "Its good that he's at school rather than out there by himself. You'll find yourselves in less danger if you are being hunted if you are at home, school, work, or at other place of 'normal' or 'ordinary' activity. So while you should always be wary and combat ready, there are times when you can just relax as well, which is always important."

After that brief remark Genji listened to Sasha talk about what their power was like. In truth he had played his fair share of games before. Not too many of course, but a friend of his from high school had introduced him to a few. They were fun, but a mere small hobby for Genji. Still he had an pretty decent idea of what Sasha was talking about. "Like an RPG huh..." The fact that they could just get new abilities through practice intrigued him and if their power was literally like an RPG that would indeed explain the name over the head thing. "So, correct me if I'm wrong, but when you say Abilities... you mean like Skills or whatever? Also just how else is your power like an RPG? Do you have HP or gain Experience Points? If that second thing is the case, that explains how you managed to become a small bit stronger in the short amount of time you have had your powers..."

While Genji had an idea of what she was talking about in terms of abilities, Genji still thought it would be good to know just what they could do in terms of combat, the martial artist deep in thought for a few long moments. "Alright, go ahead and show me what you can do. It'll be a good chance for me to see your combat potential."

Lucian Knowledge: 79 - 30 Knowledge = 49

---

School. It was a bit strange. Everything seemed completely normal there, like there was no super secret supernatural underworld or people after you there. Despite it all though school was easier for you now thanks to the abnormal thing you brought to it. Your power. With a heightened Int and points in the Knowledge Talent school has indeed become easier for you now. Not as easy as one would expect, probably due to today's lessons being a bit more challenging possibly or the courses always being hard, but you managed to use your new found knowledge and aptitude to completely, but also barely, grasp the entirety of the lessons in a cement grip in your mind that was harder to achieve before the gamer power and the Int and Knowledge increases.

Whether you want to skip school early to get the latter half of the morning is up to you, but you feel like you could and get put barely behind with how well you are understanding the first lessons of the early morning.

Genji told Sasha and Silas that at some places, some like school, work and sport would be save. Probably because it is normal for you to be there and because there are often a lot of people around, which would make it somewhat harder to open a pseudospace. Gaia can make it look like they always have been there in some cases, but Silas didn't think it would be the same that if everyone looks at you and disappear that Gaia would fix that too.

Their mentor had a bit of troubles with the concept of an RPG game. Weird though, you would expect that most boys would have played at least one RPG, or at least a game in which you level up to become stronger. "Everything you said is true. We level up with experience points and get new skills." Silas said while leaning against something. Genji then wanted him and Sasha to show what they already could do. Silas had three active abilities: Deflecting Strike, Energy Strike and Chain Attack. It would be the easiest to show his Energy Strike, as he didn't need to have an opponent for that. Silas first opened his inventory by saying the command to open it. Genji then also would know that they could carry stuff with them. Silas grabbed the Bokken for once as his racket mastery was already at a high level.

Like his Squash racket, Silas held the Bokken in his left hand. One would maybe have a better grip and stronger slash when holding it with both hands, but Silas was used to always hold his weapon in his left hand. Which also was his strongest arm. Silas slashed around with it a bit, he still hadn't used the Bokken that much, but he could handle it easily. Silas did a few steps forwards, as there wasn't anything close, who wasn't an ally of him, to hit. He then performed the Energy Strike. He wasted a bit of his MP but that was only 3 out of the 57 so that wouldn't matter too much, he hoped.

Sasha nodded to Silas when he stepped forward to show Genji his abilities. She sauntered off to a side, giving the man space to show off. Silas drew his bokken from his inventory. The action was so normal to the gamers, but to other people it probably looked like absolute magic. Sasha kept a close eye on Genji to gauge his reaction. Were such abilities common among the other ability users?

Silas's bokken glowed when he swung it down with a powerful downwards slash. Even Sasha could tell he was no amateur at wielding a sword. During the battles with the imps he was also more composed than the rest of the group. Perhaps he did kendo, Sasha guessed. That would make him a lot better at fighting than the rest of us couch potatoes.

"Each of us have rather unique abilities too... for example, I can shoot glowy bullets," Sasha added after he was done.

Genji watched and listened, raising an eyebrow as he saw Silas effectively pull a Bokken from mid air. "That looks like some sort of dimension magic if you ask me... I am guessing that's your 'Inventory' then if you are like a game character." The martial artist took note of what the Gamer said before he pulled the Bokken out of thin air. Of course, Genji waited for Silas to end his demonstration, somewhat impressed by his show of kendo. Somewhat. He was more fixated upon the energy that seemed to envelope Silas' sword after saying that command, watching while just sort of leaning back in a more casual manner. Judging from his reactions, the things they demonstrated didn't seem all that surprising to Genji since he didn't seem to be wide eyed or show other forms of obvious surprise.

After listening to Sasha's remark Genji scratched his chin for a few moments. "Well it seems like your power is a whole interesting bag of tricks isn't it. It would take a long time of training to learn how to put ki, or mana in your case I suppose from how it felt, into a sword, yet you seem to be able to do it with just a word. Im guessing that your power is activated through voice commands, judging from hearing Silas say a few things. Couple voice activated abilities with being able to grow stronger... an inventory...experience points..." Genji's brow furrowed for a moment as he scratched the back of his head.

"I have to say I have no idea what to make of your power. If anything right now you guys are weak, but if you can easily learn interesting techniques like shooting glowing bullets or that Energy Strike technique I have to say your ability possesses an incredible amount of potential. You two seem to be Natural Ability Users, people who are either born with their ability or it just comes to them." Genji pointed to himself.

"I'm an Acquired Ability User. I wasn't born with my power. Sure I had a somewhat higher aptitude for sensing Ki when I was younger and an affinity for martial arts, but my strength was obtained through training as is the strength of all Acquired Ability Users." He suddenly stood up, walking over to a large rock that was in the training yard like area they were in. There was a Psuedospace over the entire house actually, probably put there by Genji to make the place seem closed and empty for the day. Suddenly he focused for a few moments, his hand glowing with a sort of misty, green energy. With a focused burst he backhanded the rock, crumbling and cracking heard as he pulled his fist back, a decent sized hole in the rock where his fist hit. He seemed somewhat relaxed through all of that. He could probably do more than just a hole in a rock if he applied himself in that moment, but Genji felt no reason to in order to prove his point.

"What makes an Ability User an Ability User is that our Abilities essentially break the laws of normal world physics. Whether its strength beyond human limitations, magic, ESP, or other such extraordinary feats. Most people believe this is why the Interference Law exists. The world would fall into chaos if people with powers that broke the laws of physics were going around, using their abilities freely. Of course there are limits to what even supernatural abilities can do, like creating things out of nothing is impossible supposedly. However..."

He seemed to now be somewhat confused as he looked at the two of them for a moment, just sighing heavily after a few moments, fingers pressed against his forehead. "Your power seems confusing. I mean, you can see things above people's heads, get EXP, have an Invetory... Nothing like that has ever been seen before. Most Natural Abilities start off strong, but you two seem weak right now, which makes me guess that you have a more Late Bloomer style ability. It starts off weak, but has unlimited potential for growth. To be honest, I can't really make heads or tales of what your power is. For starters, why don't you tell me everything you can do that is game world like. After that, we will be able to plan on how you two can defend yourselves from those who may be after you."

If the two of them noticed there was a book next to where Genji was sitting before he stood up. It had no title upon its cover and appeared to have a simple brown cover with red trim. He was probably reading it before the two of them showed up judging by the bookmark in it.

Lucian yawned as he walked out of his class room, as interesting as his classes are, he didn't seem to be able to focus as much as he planned, but he got a lot more out of it than some others had, as he looked back into the room to see flustered students talking to the professor trying to have him explain the lesson again in more simple terms. So the points that I allotted truly do affect every day life, There is no war I would have grasped that concept otherwise. He put his calculus textbook away into his locker, then plopped himself down on a sofa in the hall. Everything seemed so normal, so...boring.

Staring up at the ceiling, Lucian couldn't help but wonder what the others where doing, he looked around to see that no one else was within sight, then he whispered out to send some pms, he typed away furiously as he wanted to get it all done before anyone would see. "Hey, what are you up to right now?" he massed his message and sent it to all of the Gamers, even Mike. He then sat waiting for a response, then got up. He knew that he wasn't planning on staying any longer, he might fall a bit behind, but he could always study from his textbook later. Walking out of the university, Lucian stretched his arms and let out another yawn.

Silas listened to Genji, he was right. For someone who didn't play RPG games the powers would be really confusing. "Let me explain it." Silas began. "RPG games have a rather basic gameplay to all of them. You will need to complete quests to earn rewards, which always include experience points with which you can level up. You can also gain those points by fighting. The higher level you are the higher your stats are. Stats are things like your power, agility, luck etc." Silas said, pausing for Genji to nod if he understood.

"Then we also have an inventory. It kinda is like a giant backpack to say so. You can store a limited amount of objects in it that normally would fit in a bag too. So you can't place vehicles in it, or similar things to that. We can change out outfits too anytime we want...and.... Sasha you got anything important about RPG's?" Silas asked. As Sasha would add some other things, or not, to Silas' explanation, he studied the book next to Genji. It didn't have a cover which somehow took the interest of Silas. That would be the first time he was interested in a book. He was sure to ask something about it after Sasha finished talking, unless Sasha herself noticed it and asked about it.

Sasha proceeded to tell Genji about everything she could think of. She was getting restless. They were here to train, not to chit-chat. Sasha folded her arms across her chest when she finished. "That's about it, I think. We just need a place to level up to become stronger. Was hoping this was the place."

Genji listened to the two of them as they talked about their power. Genji seemed to understand the jist of it, as he had played a few RPGs before, but they were more like a sparse past time to him. Still he understood enough without the need of asking too many questions. Of course, the expression on his face was intrigue, and sometimes shock at a few certain things, like the fact that they could see strange floating windows, receive items from enemies, and help each other gain EXP in something called a Party, these things being said by Sasha who just went and said everything that she could think of on the power, which was everything she had experienced with it. To be honest it wasn't a bad thing to tell Genji as now, after their explanations were said and done, he seemed to have a much clearer understanding of what was going on with them.

"Well that explains why Messengers of Gaia would talk to your little group specifically..." He rubbed his temples for a few moments, sighing heavily. "Your power is on a whole different league than most natural abilities. In game terms... I think it would be called 'broken' or 'overpowered'. Really your power is... well to put it lightly... I'd say its bullshit." He just chuckled a little, a grin on his face for a few moments at his quip. "To put it simpler terms you said that you see windows that tell you whether what you do is good or bad and that can give you different information on things. There isn't a power out there that could do that, give you that much information without as much as a thought or a word. With that I can literally say that Gaia, this very world itself, is assisting you with your power. But that's not the only amazing thing..."

He stood up from his seat, just shaking his head for a few moments, as if wondering how to explain or comprehend what he was about to say. "You said that you can pick up items from the creatures you kill in the Psueodspace. That should be impossible. Those creatures technically do not physically exist. I don't know if you know this, but they are metaphysical entities, they do not have a physical form, but are given one when they enter Psueodspace, a space that isn't reality. So if what you are saying is true, then you can literally create something from nothing with your power, turn what doesn't technically exist into reality, a power that... well... is akin to a miracle." He sound impressed, almost overwhelmed by this fact. "So needless to say it really is as though Gaia, this very world itself, or even God if you want to go as far to say that, is helping you with your power, something that no other Natural Ability user has ever had happen to them at least in my own knowledge."

By the sound of Genji's words, the Gamer's power was more than a power. It was something akin to an impossible miracle. He did mention that the powers were given by Gaia, the very world itself, so to say that the power was a god given miracle or that they were chosen by god to have this power. The PM from Lucian would arrive at this time as this was about the time he sent it. Genji couldn't see it though.

Then suddenly Genji claps, a grin on his face. "Enough gawking at your power for now, lets focus on how you all can defend yourselves." He looks over the two of them for a few moments. "You look like you could learn the basics of martial arts, but we'll get to those in a moment. For now what sort of weapons do you have? If you are going to defend yourselves you will need some proper weapons."

Ren had explored the Abyss Auction site, unable to believe it was the way it was. It was a bit of a... surprise, but not an unpleasant surprise. Of course Ren didn't buy anything. Things on there were ridiculously expensive and even with over 200,000 ¥ in her inventory wasn't enough to get a whole lot. Ren thought of only two things that could be done. Either try and fight more of those Big Imps or try to fight that other creature he fought last night. As much as Ren wanted to try that, he was not eager to take on powerful monsters like that again today. No instead he figured he would go talk to Saito Tatsumi, see what he knew about the auction and anything about those who were chasing them. Perhaps even get some help if the boy was willing.

In fact, Ren had gotten ready to go out, but suddenly received a PM from Lucian asking what he was doing. Normally Ren would have ignored it, but he knew that he couldn't afford that. This was a game and one always needed to work together with their party. Plus going out alone probably wasn't the best idea, especially with strange people after them. So he quickly typed out a short reply to Lucian.



Ren made sure to put his laptop in his inventory, as he figured he could use it in case he needed to look some things up about the auction or just wanted to play some games or watch some of the anime he had downloaded on there. After that he left the house, deciding to head to Tatsumi Antiques. It was still very early in the afternoon, probably around noon actually. Late in the morning, but not afternoon yet. Ren headed to Tatsumi Antiques, making sure to keep watch for anyone or anything that could be watching him and making sure to stick to the more busier streets and train cars, hoping that even though Pseudospaces made everything else disappear that this would keep anyone from attacking him as he made his way over to the antique shop where he met Saito before.
