After escaping from the prison, will you end up in one again? Time to find out! The next part of the 'Another quest' is here!

Chapter Three

You wake up to the sound of loud moans. You're still a little bit dizzy, but at least you can open your eyes now and look around. The first thing you notice is Yumi and Taro across the room, doing something. What they are exactly doing, you can't tell, since a piece of furniture blocks most of the view, but based on the sounds they make, it's probably for the best.

It's time to move on to the second thing you notice, namely why you're standing when you just woke up? The answer is simple: you're chained to the wall. You're also naked and gagged. You can't say you're completely surprised given the circumstances, you kind of expected this… you just hoped she'll be a bit more gentle with you. You check out the chains and the cuffs used to secure you to the wall, but they're made from some kind of metal, it's not like you can escape without getting hold of the keys. The latter seems equally unlikely, since you can barely move an inch. In short, you can't do anything other that producing muffled sounds and jerking the chains.

WHAT DID WE DO TO DESERVE THIS

At this point my trust towards women are plummeting

There's nothing else we can do but flail wildly
Alternatively we could remain calm. We might need our energy, let's not waste it just to make a bunch of noise
Replies: >>4971
>>4970
That's true I suppose let's get a feel for what we're feeling
Is our benis in check, do we feel dry, is any part of our body in considerable pain or discomfort
Is our vision blurrier than usual, can we still breathe relatively well
Are our legs also chained? Our arms for sure are chained but we're standing up so legs can go either way
Replies: >>4972
(Wow, so many players, what happened? I'm going to answer >>4971 until you figure out what you want to do)

Your penis is fine. The chains hold you firmly in place, with both your legs and arms spread apart in a not too comfortable position, but other than that you don't feel any pain. Due to the gag, you're constantly drooling and your throat became dry.

Your vision is a bit blurry, but it's already better than it was just after you woke up, hopefully it will return to normal in a few minutes. Your breathing is normal.
Replies: >>4974
We need to wait, Yumi's unstable but not "I'm going to kill you" unstable. If we keep calm maybe we can notice something  to help us get the fuck out of here …. hey what does the room we are in look like?

Alright, let's wait it out. But if nothing happens within 10 minutes I vote to flail and shout with the gag

Let's see if I will still have any followers tomorrow…

You remain at the wall (like you have any choice), and look around. It looks like you're still in the same room, and the door is right in front of you…

Yumi and Taro continue to do whatever they were doing for some time, but since you don't see a clock, you can't tell the exact time. Suddenly Yumi raises her voice and lets out a loud shout, then they both fall silent.
"Good boy," Yumi says. "Just a second, I'm going to check that Anon guy."

You think maybe you should fake sleeping, but a pinch to your cheek prevents your plan from succeeding.
"E-hehe, you're awake! I'll have to take care of Taro, but I'll be back in a few minutes, just wait patiently."
She looks happy and playful, unfortunately you don't feel the same level of enthusiasm. She's still wearing the same set of clothes, except that the upper part is missing, leaving her boobs exposed. Before you could inspect her further, she turns away and disappears behind the furniture again.

"It looks like Anon woke up, so you can have some rest. Let's go back to your cage."
A minute later she returns, this time with the full set of her clothes.

"Hehe, I'm back, Anon. You know, I really wanted to do this in a more civilized way," she starts to poke at your chest while continuing, "but you were really mean to me, and wanted to leave. But don't worry, I can be merciful, just do exactly what I say, and I might even reward you in the end, hehe. Now where to start… you know, I'm in a good mood now so I may even listen to your preferences, if you have any. Of course, you won't be able to say anything with that ballgag, that's a lovely part of this situation… aww, you're so cute when you're trying to look angry, Taro never does that. You know, I originally only wanted this to be a one-night stand, but if you're this cute, I might decide to keep you, hehe. But enough of this chit-chat, let's go back to business. I'll start to say some options, and you'll nod or shake your head depending on how much you would like each option. So, if you're into more hardcore stuff, we can start with a good whipping, maybe some kind of CBT… that's cock and ball torture, if you don't know. Alternatively, we could start with a more gentle approach, I have some cute nipple clamps, then maybe I could suck you while stimulating your anus with a vibrator. Oh, it's not in this room, but I can bring some candles if you really want to feel the hot wax on your body."

You shake your head after each suggestion, especially after CBT.
"Boo, I'm trying to be nice and you're mean again. Just to be clear, no part of the previous list is optional, I just wanted to start with things you like before moving on to the more unpleasant options, but since you failed to give me any answers, I'll have to go my own way. … Oh, come on, make that angry face again! Rawr! … Haha, you're a funny guy. Let's start with something simple then…"
She turns away, and shortly returns with some small instruments in her hand.

"Look, I brought two small bells. I'll just clamp it to your nipples…" She then clamps the first one to your left nipple and…
"AAAARRGGGHHH" you would scream, but the gag muffles your sounds. You have no idea what these clamps are made of, but if she leaves it on for more than a few seconds, your nipples will become 2D, that's for sure.
"Hey, stop that act! Of course, I set the clamp to maximum pressure, but a guy like you should barely notice it. Here's the other…" Another clamp, another sudden pain. "Now you're much cuter. Just shake your body, and the bells will ring. It's very fun! It looks like you like them, so let me bring something…" You wonder what kind of definition of 'fun' or 'like' she has, because you have completely different views about them.

She returns with another set of clamps, but they have something else attached to them. They look like weight.
"Back in the old days, when digital scales didn't exist, people used weight like these to measure mass. They're pretty useless these days, but it's a great way to increase the pain produced by these clamps. Since your nipples are already occupied, I'm just going to attach them to your balls."

"What? Did I hear that right?" That is your first reaction, but you only need a few seconds to receive the confirmation. Two weights are being attached to your balls… the clamps are one thing, but as soon as she finishes with the clamps, she releases the weights from her hands… you can see the weights falling due to gravity for a few centimeters, until the little chain tightens… "AAAAAAAAAA" It's hard to describe what you feel now, it's about as pleasant as being kicked at the crotch by some martial art master, you'd collapse on the floor if you weren't chained to the wall.

"Hehehe, let me help you a bit with your problems."
Without further notice, she starts to stroke your penis. It could be a pleasant feeling, but not when you have two fucking heavy swinging objects attached to your balls, but she doesn't seem to mind it. When your penis becomes erect, she stops and starts licking it while massaging your balls with her hands. Finally, she takes your member into her mouth and starts to suck it, while continuing to stimulate the head of your dick with her tongue. Too bad the pain masks most of the pleasure, your mind is going blank, you can't think straight in a situation like this. She continues sucking you, you're almost on the edge, you're about to cum, you just need one more thrust… but she suddenly stops.
"I hope you didn't think I'll let you cum, after all you did. You have to earn it, and to be honest, all you did was utterly mean things. So, onto the next point…"

She picks up a whip from a nearby table.
"So, I'm pretty sure you know what comes next. You were a very bad boy, so I'm going to teach you a lesson you'll remember forever. I'll beat you until you'll perform all my whims, without questions!"

She starts to swing the whip, you close your eyes… you don't know why, maybe you think it'll be less painful if you don't see it? You completely lost your ability to thinks straight. The blow will arrive any minute now and you can't do anything, only a miracle could save you now…

"*Knock-knock*" Somebody knocks on the door.
"Who is it?" Yumi asks.
"IF. Do you know where is Anon?"
"I think he went into the city to do something."
WHAT IS THIS LIE?! You're filled with indescribable amount of rage, you start furiously flailing and shouting, you flail so hard that it's feared you'll break something, you shout so loud even that gag can't muffle it, only make it indecipherable.
"What is this?"
"Just Taro making a fuss, don't mind it," Yumi answers while trying to hush you, without any effect.
"Taro? No, something is off… Hey, unlock the door!"
"I… I can't."
"Why?"
"You wouldn't like what's here."
"I don't care, open it!"
"I told you, it's not possible."

*CRASH*
The door smashes as IF enters the room. A stupid lock won't stop the Wind Walker of Gamindustri. IF takes a second to survey the situation, before a loud "WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING HERE YUMI?!" leaves her mouth.
"We… we were just having fun…"
"FUN?! ANON, IS THIS FUN FOR YOU?"
You shake your head without even thinking.

*CRASH*
IF slaps Yumi so hard that she is literally sent flying, and crashes into the wall. She looks at IF with teary eyes, then she stands up and runs away. IF wants to run after her, but you stop her with a shout.
"Oh, sorry, I think I should rescue you first. Holy shit, what did she do to you? … Where should I start?"
"Mnggnngh!"
"Yes, the gag. Um, sorry, but I'll have to come close… Huh, nice bells you have here." She says while quickly poking one of the bells. "How this thing works, I wonder… oh, here is a buckle." She quickly opens it and removes the gag, you unintentionally start coughing.
"Oh god, are you alright?" she asks after you stop coughing.

"Cut it out, it was nothing."
"Um… But more importantly, please, for the love of all that is holy, remove the damn weights!"
"You mean these bells?"
"That too… but there are real weights, down there, they're much more painful."
"What? Oh my, I didn't even notice, I-I didn't want to look there, b-but… That bitch, I'm going to kill her! But first, let me remove these bells…"
"Argh!" You didn't though that removing the clamps would be painful, but it is: as the blood reenters areas from where it was previously squeezed out, it sends a sharp pain signal.
"Are you okay?!"
"Yes… just continue, please."
She removes the second clamp. Since you expected the pain now, it's not as bad as before.

She squats and looks at your member for a second before she asks,
"Hmm, sorry Anon, but are you sure you want this? I might accidentally touch you there or… um… something like that…"

"Are you trying to push the burden of decision onto me? … *sigh* I guess you won't change. Ok, I'll remove them, but I won't accept any complaints!"
"Please do."

She reaches to the weight and tries to remove them. She removes the first clamp without problems, but when she tries to remove the second one, the nail on her index finger accidentally touches your member. You normally wouldn't even notice it, but since she suddenly removed her hands, while saying "n-nothing happened!", it immediately became clear what happened. After a second try, she manages to remove the second weight. Finally, you managed to get rid of that horrible weight!

"I think only the chains are remaining. Let me see… arghhh!" She tries to tear the cuffs open with her hands without success. "No, that won't work, I can't open them without a key. Do you have any idea where could I find the keys? I hope Yumi she didn't take the key with her…"

"If I could open my inventory somehow maybe maybe the generic key I got from the prison might work, but I doubt it… check on Yumi if she hasn't completely ran away."
"Alright, I'll be back in a minute, don't run away."
"…"

You're now alone in the room. Since you can't really do anything, you just start to think about where did you fuck up your decisions, what did you do to deserve this…

"Anon, I've got bad news," IF greets you after returning a few moments later, "she ran away from the Basilicom. So, unless you want to wait here, alone, chained to the wall for hours until I find her, you'll have to open your inventory. Don't worry, I won't make fun of you if you have some childish or weird or whatever stuff in your inventory."
"Um, but I never tried to open my inventory like this…"
"Just do it! It'll work."
Having no better idea, you think about opening your inventory, like you usually do… and voila, it opens!
"See? I told you. Now where is the key."
"There should be a key chain somewhere… in the bottom left corner."
"Hmmm… I got it. Let's hope it'll work."

She grabs the key chain, tries the first key… it's not the correct one. She tries the second… no juice. But when she tries the third one, you hear a clicking sound, and the cuff's grip loosens a little.

However, things didn't continue as you expected. With a firm push, IF locks the cuff back into it's original position.
"W-What are you doing?!"
"Sorry Anon… but there's something I'll have to ask before releasing you. I wanted to ask this since some time, but I think the time wasn't right. Or maybe it's more like I didn't have the courage to ask you, only in a situation like this… I'm such a coward… Anyway, the question is, I have told you what I feel about you back in the alley. Now it's your turn. It'll probably hurt… yeah, it will, why would somebody like you give a fuck about a flat chested adventurer… but I'll want to hear the truth, so be brutally honest. Try to lie, and I'll leave you in Yumi's hands. And please, save the flattery for later, that's not what I'm interested in."

"Hey, stop it!" she says, while trying to hide her blushing face. "D-Don't say embarrassing things about me!"

"And you're not a coward," you continue without giving too much attention to how she wants to stop you, "a coward wouldn't work for the guild for a living, taking of fucking dragons and underground criminal organizations.

"… Are you sure? I-I mean… you know, I'm a bit lacking in assets, so I was always trying to make up for it by being a cool and composed person. But when you're around, it just falls apart. It's like, someone just erased your ability to think straight, and you'll end up doing embarrassing or stupid things. You know, like the fuss around my coat, or our little talk in the valley. Heck, it's possible that even what I'm doing now is stupid and pointless, but I can't stop it. It's like someone else is controlling my actions! I wanted to show you, that despite my recent less than fortunate actions, I'm still strong and able. Maybe I was trying too hard… there's no way I wouldn't notice that cat normally… or when that guy picked up his syringe gun…"
"Um, what? Did you…"
"Yes, I remember now… I remember everything. The symptoms matched Yumi's description. A few seconds later, I could barely stand on my own, then a guy jumped on me and it was all over… I collapsed on the floor, I could hardly move an inch. They dragged me to the van, I was already inside when I heard a loud sound from the outside. I suppose that's when you finally entered the warehouse. They quickly cuffed me to some iron bar inside the van, jumped in and drove away. The driver drove very fast, taking wild turns, but that didn't stop the others in the back from groping my chest, or ejaculating onto my face. One guy tore off my pants and would probably rape me, if the van wouldn't turn over a second later. I think I'll have to thank the CPUs and their timing… It was Blanc who found me first, but she immediately turned into a furious rage and ran after the fleeing guys. Vert came next, she tried to comfort me, but I don't know, something happened between us lately. Finally, you arrived…" She's almost crying at this point, but she continues. "I think it was you who unlocked my handcuff, right? I was too weak to stand on my own, fortunately I managed to grab you and… I don't think I ever felt that kind of warmth and peace before. When we arrived back in Compa's house, you laid me on the bed… I don't know why, but I thought if you go away, I'll never see you again. With all my might I grabbed your hand, like my life depended on it. Sorry that I bothered you with stupid things like that, looks like I'm completely hopeless. Anyway, I think you see now why I'm asking. I've been thinking about our relationship, and I don't even know what would be the best word to describe it… Strangers? No, we went through way to many things together. Colleagues? Friends? Something more? I don't know, simply too many things happened in the last few days and I still couldn't process all of them. But I know something, and since you don't seem to be an initiative person, looks like I'll have to ask explicitly. So," she clears her throat before continuing, "Anon, would you…" She's back to her previous, almost crying tone, in the end she asks with a frantic cry, "Anon, would you go out with me?!"

"…after you unlock the cuffs," you finish your sentence, but she doesn't seem to care about it.
"Thank you! I'm very glad you said that… you have no idea how much this means to me." She starts crying while embracing you. You look at her… aww, she's way too cute like this. You would pat her head or hug her back or something like that, but the chains doesn't allow it. The only thing you can do – and it's not like you wanted to do it, but you simply can't avoid it in a situation like this – is getting an erection. Unfortunately, it's not only you who notices it.

"Um. I *am* naked, and being hugged by the girl I've fallen in love with. I'd think it'd be more unnatural if I didn't get one."
"L-L-Love?" Your statement caught her completely off-guard, she can't decide whether she should squeeze you harder or try to hide herself. "I… That's… I mean… Let me just unlock you."
She hurriedly unlocks the two cuffs holding your legs. Finally you don't have to stand with spread legs… although you already feel that standing on your own will be… problematic. She continues to unlock the cuff on your left hand, then finally the one on your right hand. Just as she finishes it, you start to collapse, but you manage to grab IF, just like how she grabbed you after you rescued her from the van.
"Huh, all right big boy, you don't have to die here… Let me carry you to the bed."

She carries you to the bed and helps you to sit down.
"Are you all right?"
"Yeah, I think. My legs just got numb after standing that way for a long time."
"That's… a relief."
Suddenly, she turns around and runs out of the room. "Wait!" you shout, but she ignores it. You try to stand up and run after her, but your current physical conditions doesn't allow that. "Damn."

Since you can't really move, you just look around while sitting on the bed. Now you can confirm it for sure, it's still the same room that you entered with Yumi. You find your clothes on the bed right behind you. Thinking maybe you should get dressed, you reach toward the clothes, but you're interrupted by footsteps. You look up, IF is back in the room.
"Why… did you ran away?"
"I-I…" she starts to blush heavily, "I brought you something… I hope you will like it."
She reaches her hands toward you. You see a little blue object in her hands, a small dogoo figure.

No no no, it's much smaller that that, a few centimeters in diameter. Something you can attach to your keychain, or something like that.

"I hope you'll like it. Hmm, listen, I think you should get dressed and… d-don't worry, I'll look away while you dress!" Just as she said it, she turns around and walks away. Not like it matters too much after what happened, but whatever.

You start to enumerate your clothes on the bed, but you don't get too far.
"Eeek! No, it's nothing… I mean, Taro is here…"
You look at the source of the sound, but you only see IF there. She runs back to and starts to whisper to you with a blushing face.

"Do you consider a guy who can't move and gagged so he can't even speak awake? He is about as awake as you were when I entered the room. On the other hand, I have no idea what's with Yumi."

You crawl to the other side of the bed and next to the bed you find a cage, just big enough to hold a single person, who's sleeping or in a vertical position. Taro is inside, his hands are tied behind his back, he has a gag, and hardly enough space. He doesn't (or doesn't want to) notice you, he just stares at the bottom of the cage.

"Taro, you alright over there?"
He looks up at you, then without thinking he nods his head.

He looks at you with a painful expression, then he slowly nods his head.
"Then, could you keep it a secret? Else, you know how strong IF is, right?"
He doesn't respond, but you can see the fear on his face.
"Incidentally, do you want us to ungag you or something?"
He just shakes his head, without too much consideration.

"Well, IF… Taro could very well be really enjoying himself there, I personally wouldn't enjoy being bound like that, but he might. But, Yumi fled, we better check on her, that should be our number one priority. If you could take down a dragon, I don't know what sort of damage you could have given her… She couldn't have gotten too far hopefully…"
"Hey, I only give her a little slap, she will be alright… Okay, don't look at me like this, we will go after her, but before that I want to check something quick…" She walks next to you and looks at Taro. "Hey, you didn't even ungag him. That's not how you ask somebody!" She reaches Taro to ungag him, he shakes his head in a protest, but that doesn't stop IF. "Taro, I have an important question. Are you fine like this?"
"Yes, I'm fine, I…"
"Cut that bullshit! Listen, after what she did to Anon, you can't say I'm on her side… to be honest, I could end up accidentally killing her if she would show up now. So Taro, I'm asking you again, are you fine like this?"
"It's not what you think, I'm really… hmm…" He pauses, looks around multiple times, the continues in an almost whispering tone. "Can I really trust you?"
"Yes."
"… Alright, I understand. Of course, I'm not fine. She's really cruel to me. She probably wants to take revenge for what I did back at the prison, and she's probably right, I deserve it, but…"
"How did she blackmail you?"
"Blackmail? What do you mean?"
"I mean, a guy wouldn't allow someone to treat him like this. What did she do?"
"Well, when Yumi decides on something you can't really say no, she'll have her way. At the prison, when I woke up I was already gagged and bound, and she wouldn't release me even for a second. When we arrived here, she immediately started to prepare my next torture. I tried to resist, but all you have to do is to stop paying attention for a split second, and she injects you. When I woke up, I was completely hopeless again. Ugh, and she has an interest in medicine so she started to experiment with various drugs on me… it's just horrible."

IF looks at you, without saying a word, but her face tells you she expects an explanation.
"Um, I can confirm it, Yumi used a syringe to inject me… I passed out a few seconds later, when I woke up I was already chained to the wall."
"I see… Anon, could you give me a hand? Let's release Taro from this cage."
"What?!" he says in a surprised voice. "Please, no!"
"We're going to save you from this hell, what's your problem now?"
"No, you must misunderstood me! Yes, I said I don't like this situation too much, but if this is the price I have to pay if I want to be together with her, I gladly accept it. Plus she would be really pissed if she found out that I somehow managed to escape."
"…" IF is completely speechless. She just looks at Taro, then at you, then back at Taro, unsure what to do now.

"Yeah, I think you should get dressed, I'll wait for you outside… Oh, but before that, Taro, are you sure you're going to be OK? I mean we don't know where's Yumi, it could easily take hours before she returns."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'll wait patiently for her. Not like I can do anything else like this…"
"*Sigh* Alright, I get it. Then…" IF stands up, but then Taro interrupts her.
"Please!"
"What is it?"
"Could you put the ballgag back? Yumi would be very angry if…"
"Okay, okay. There we go… is it OK?"
Taro shakes his head.
"Now what's the problem?"
"I think it's too loose," you answer instead of Taro, because, well, he can't answer. "I mean even my gag was so tight that it almost ripped my mouth open."
"So should I tighten it?" Taro nods to IF's question. "Fine. … Is it good now?" He shakes his head again. "Um, I'll tighten it even more but don't blame me if something bad happens to you… Now, I hope it's fine now." Taro nods. "*Sigh* With that settled, I'm going outside, I'll quickly collect my stuff, let's meet at the entrance, shall we?"

You check your clothes for anything suspicious, but it doesn't look like they were messed with. No traces of hidden tracking devices or things like that… heck, the cell phone is still in the pocket.
You get dressed and try to stand up, you still feel a little pain in your legs, but nothing serious. As you exit the room, you check the door, it simply broke apart. You better not stay in the line of IF's kick if you value your life…

You go down the stairs. Noire is still sitting behind her desk, doing her work. Is she so obsessed with her work that she didn't notice the ruckus you made upstairs? But since you don't want to bother her, you just leave the Basilicom and meet IF.
"So, what's the plan?"
"I think we should go into the city and ask around, maybe someone saw her. Oh, and if you don't mind, I'd like to make a few copies of the key I used to unlock your cuffs. Something tells me we'll come across these cuffs again. And Yumi… just what the fuck is wrong with her? I didn't want to argue with Taro, we have enough problems right now, but is she continues to be this reckless, she could end up seriously injuring Taro. Or worse, somebody else."

"Horrible… Anyway, here's a locksmith, so I'd like to make a few copies of the keys if you don't mind. It will only take a minute, then we can start asking around for Yumi.

"Sounds like a good number to me. Make sure to keep each one safe all the same."
"Don't worry, I can handle a few keys. Let's go."

You enter a small shop. IF walks to the counter and asks the shopkeeper to create copies of the keys.
"It will take about 90 seconds, is that okay?"
"Yes."
The shopkeeper takes the keychain, inserts the keys, one after one, into a machine. It makes a loud noise as it starts up, so you can't really talk while it's working, even thought nothing interesting happens in the room. About a minute later the keys start to fall into a small box at the bottom of the machine. The shopkeeper collects the keys and give it back to IF after she pays the bill. So much for being a locksmith, even you could do this job…

You leave the shop, and look around.
"I guess you don't have a photo of Yumi, right?"
"No…"
"I don't have either, we'll have to describe her. Anyway, let's go to the main square, it should be a good starting point."

You walk follow IF and a few minutes later you arrive at a big square. Even thought it's supposed to be the main square, it's pretty quiet, there are only a few people walking around.
"Hmm, let's ask that guy there. … Excuse me, did you happen to see a girl in a black latex gear and probably in a messed up state recently?"
"Hmm, yes, I think, about 10 minutes ago, she went that way…"
"Thank you!"

You start walking in the direction the guy gave you, but something bothers your mind.
"Say, IF, is it just luck, or you know something?"
"What do you mean? That guy just looked like someone who knows things like this. Anyway, if we follow this street… I don't like it, let's ask someone else too."

You ask a second person, he didn't saw Yumi, a third one gave you a completely different direction. You continue to ask people, but you receive contradicting information.
"This won't work. She's should be around somewhere near, walking around aimlessly. We're bound to bump into her if we…"
IF suddenly stops talking, and points her finger behind you. You turn around, you see a person in black clothes in the distance, running away.
"Fuck, she's running away. Let's go!"

IF starts running in the direction of Yumi, you follow her, but of course with your current stamina it doesn't take long until you lose them both. You take a moment to catch your breath, then start to wonder what to do when "your" phone rings. It's IF.

"Where are you?"
"Umm, in front of a little restaurant, called Steamy Foods."
"Then turn right, then at the second street turn left, then after a few meters there will be a little alley to the right, come here."
"Alright."

You follow IF instructions, and after a short walking you end up in the alley. IF is standing there, with her claws drawn, ready to strike if Yumi tries to do anything stupid. Yumi is on the floor, pale and tremendously terrified. You also notice a syringe laying on the floor, not too far away from Yumi.

You quickly pick up the syringe.
"Oh, yes, she tried to stab me with that syringe," IF remarks. "But now that you're here… Yumi, do you have other syringes?"
"… Yes…"
"Hand it over."
She hesitantly opens her inventory and throws two more syringes on the floor.
"Be careful, Anon. She might have a few more tricks up her sleeve."

You take a brief look at Yumi, then quickly grab the two other syringes. Comparing them you notice that the one you picked up first is no longer full, probably as a result of Yumi trying to stab IF. You carefully place the syringes into your inventory before asking her.

"Come on Yumi, just come with us, I should have mentioned to Noire that you needed help so this is on me. I'm not mad at you, for the record, IF might be, but I'm not."

"Hey, wait a minute! When you see a passed out guy, your first thought is 'let's strip him naked and chain him to the wall'?!"
"Um, yes? Is there a problem with that?"
"Of course there is! I don't even know where should I start… Maybe Anon was right and we will need to check you into rehab."

You open the stats screen, check your level, but you can't believe what you see. You pinch yourself, thinking it's just a bad dream, but no, you don't wake up, neither does your level change.

She gives a few general tips on aiming and general combat, but nothing specific as she's not a ranged character. "I think Uni could tell you a bit more about ranged attacks, even though she uses a gun, not a bow."
You aim at the dogoo and shoot.

Here comes the time when everyone finds out I have no idea about how D&D works
Roll time, damage: rolled number - 6, if 0 or negative -> miss. Will do this 3 times.

You hit the dogoo, dealing 4HP damage. It noticed your attack, and starts approaching you. Fortunately, it's still far away so you have time to shoot again. You miss. You can still shoot a third time, this time you hit it, but only deal 1HP, leaving the dogoo at 13/18HP.

The dogoo is too close now, you don't have time to shoot a fourth time. Fortunately, IF quickly finished the dogoo, before it could do any harm to you. You receive 1 XP and 1 credit.
"Huh, it'll take some time. How much money do you have?"
"I think they took all my money at the prison."
"Then, I know this is not much, but you can keep it."
"Wow, thanks, I feel like a rich man now."
"Haha. Anyways, we still have a lot of dogoos left to hunt. Are you ready?"

"I'm ready IF."
You continue hunting the dogoos, one after the other. The drill is the same every time, you start shooting at a Dogoo, then IF finishes it, slowly gaining levels and credits. You manage to defeat your first enemy at level 2, training becomes a bit easier after this and by the time you reach level 5, you're able to kill the Dogoo most of the cases. You earned the rolled amount of credits.

"Huh, that was fun. How are you?"
"Tired."
"Then I think we should take a break. We still have some food remaining from Compa's lunch, how about we eat it now?"
"Good idea."

You find a quiet spot, where the dogoos are unlikely to find you. You're pretty hungry after the intense training, but the remaining food still suffices, Compa really overdid it. Oh, and it's still delicious.

"So, ready for a second round, Anon?"
"Huh?"
"Don't worry, I was just kidding, that was enough work for today, time to have some fun. … To be honest, I was thinking about having a little competition, who can kill more dogoos in a given time frame, but I don't know how could we make it fair, what kind of handicap would I need…"

You sit down next to IF and you watch the sky together for some time. It has a nice orangish shade, the sun is just a big yellow circle on the sky now.

"Don't ask that every time! But I'll have to warn you… well, it's a bit embarrassing, but I've never kissed a gut before, so…"
"Don't worry, it'll be okay."
"Right. Then…"
With a gentle nudge, she moves you into a laying position. You look up, IF is over you, looking back.
"Close your eyes. At least I think this is how you're supposed to do it."

You don't feel like arguing would solve anything, so you just close your eyes. You can't see anything, but you can still feel IF drawing nearer to you…
…but suddenly you hear noises from behind you, like an animal moving in a bush.
"WHAT?!" you hear IF's voice. You open your eyes, you can still see IF jumping away, but in the next moment, your vision is already covered in blue goo. Fortunately, IF quickly defeats the creature, so you survive this encounter unscratched, but it's still enough to ruin your clothes and the moment.

Looks like you really have an affinity for these things… Anyway, even though you're okay, your clothes are not, I think we should return to the Basilicom now."

"Hmm, I didn't check it, let's see… Only some Dogoo Jelly, but I guess you're not interested in that while you're covered in dogoo goo. Anyway, time to go home."

You start walking back to the Basilicom in the twilight while talking with IF.
"I'll have to do research on these creatures, I don't like it. First the viral dogoos, now this… Um, and it's cool that you have a bow, but I think you'll need some backup plan in case you're forced to do close combat. Maybe a short dagger, or something like that. Unfortunately the shops are closed by now… but now that I think about it, you should probably get basic proficiency in bows before trying something else, so just think about it and tell me when you're ready."
"Will do."

Back in the Basilicom, Noire is still sitting behind her desk, but now Uni is there too, working on something.
"Hello!"
"Finally, you're back" says Noire in an annoyed voice, but then looks at you and her voice stops for a moment. "Just what the hell happened to you?"
"A little accident with a Dogoo. We'll be back shortly. Anon, follow me."
"Sure."

You're not sure what's the reason behind IF's commanding tone, but you follow her. You climb the stairs, and look around. The door to Yumi's room is open, you look inside, it looks like she's watching some kind of anime, she doesn't even notice you.
"Let's not bother her right now. Listen, Anon," she pulls closer to you and continues to whisper to you. You have a bad feeling about this… "So, I was a little pissed about you bathing me without my permission, and I'm still not fully recovered from it, but I have an idea. What about I bathe you now?"

"It'll be fine, come on!"
Without a second thought, she grabs you and drags you to the bathroom. She closes the door, making sure it's securely locked, you don't want random people barging into the room.

"Let's start. First, remove your clothes, starting with your T-shirt."
She looks really fired up, even if you had second thoughts it's too late now. After a second of hesitation, you remove your T-shirt, but when you're about to move on to your trousers, she stops you.

"Wait. I-I don't know whether you will like the idea or not, but please try not to freak out…" She reaches for her pocket, and to your astonishment, she pulls out a handcuff. "Um, how should I put it… This is the handcuff they used to cuff me to that van, and since I made copies of the key, I should be able to open it. So can I cuff your hands behind your back? Just so you have a better understanding of how I felt, unable to do anything… Don't worry, I'll be gentle. Will you trust me?"

"Fine. Let's see, here's the cuff, I close it, then here's the key, let's try it… *click* See, it opened. So, is it okay now?"
"*Sigh* Okay, let's do it."

A moment later your hands are already tied behind your back. You can only hope she won't suddenly start to torture you…
"But now that I cuffed your hands, it means I'll have to remove the remaining clothes. So don't freak out now."
"Uhm."

She kneels in front of you and unbuttons your trousers. As she removes your pants, you can see that there's already a tent down there, but it doesn't seem to affect her. She continues by removing your socks and finally your underwear. At this moment, you involuntarily try to cover your genitals, but the cuffs don't allow it. You hear a quiet giggle in response to your reactions.
She stops in front of you and looks at you for a few moments, before she starts to talk.
"You're cute like this. But I have a more serious question. I've heard your story about how you didn't try to take advantage of the situation when our roles were reserved. At first, I didn't believe a word of it. I mean, you're a guy, with an unconscious girl in front of you, you can do whatever you want to do, why would you just bathe her and nothing else… Now I remember most things, and while I really don't have memories of you doing something mean to me, there are still a few fuzzy spots, and to be honest I still have a hard time believing a guy like that can exists. So tell me, if there's anything you didn't tell me before. Even if it's as simple as taking an extra peek at my pussy or pinching my nipples or something like that. I mean, even I can't take my eyes off you. No, it's not good, why can't I think straight in a situation like this? What should I do? What would you do if I were you?"

"So you were afraid of me? I don't know whether I should be proud of it or be worried about it… But yes, you're right, let's do this, so, sit down on this stool."
You sit down while IF disappears behind you for a moment.
"So I hope you won't mind…" You feel IF stepping behind you, then a second later the world turns black, you look left and right, but you can't see anything.
"W-What's this?"
"It's just a blindfold. I still remember how you looked like after the bathing scene, and I don't want to ruin my clothes, so I decided it's probably the easiest if I do it naked too. If you want to see me like this, you need to something more than just telling me I look cute."

"Yes, but… Okay, fine, considering you probably at best saw a blur when I bathed you I guess this is fine."
"See? Now just a moment and we can start."

Even though you can't see anything, you can hear some faint sounds as she removes the clothes. Will she even remove her panties? You don't get much time to think about it, as she quickly returns.
"I'm ready. So, let's start with some water. Let me know if it's too hot or cold."

After a few trials, you manage to select a comfortably warm temperature. You can feel the water running over your body.
"Aw, it looks like that Dogoo also messed up your hair. Don't worry, I'll wash it."
Suddenly you feel the water running through your hair, the blindfold quickly soaks up some of the water – unfortunately it's tightly fixed, it won't fall off from some water.
"Looks like the Basilicom only has one bottle of shampoo, so no choice now, huh."
A few seconds later you feel little fingers massaging your hair with the shampoo. She makes sure to properly wash your hair before rinsing it. You can't complain about your treatment, except, maybe, about the blindfold and handcuff.

However, it doesn't take long until things go haywire. She starts to wash your neck, then moving down to your chest, but she's doing it from behind, almost hugging you. You feel IF's body pressing against your back, as she rubs your body with soap. She slowly moves downwards, continuing with your stomach, stopping just above your crotch. It goes without saying, your dick is hard like a rock at this point, and it looks like she noticed it too.
"Whoa, nice member you have here," she says while gently stroking it. "It means you're having a good time, right? But just for your info, I'm going to tell you that I'm dipping wet, and it's not only because of the water. So if you agree to help me, I'll help you to feel better. Deal?"

"Now if you rub it here, like this," she says while moving grabbing your finger and moving it up and down, "it should be good. Now I release your finger, try it on your own."
She releases your finger, and you stop for a moment, hesitating a bit.

"No, it's fine IF. Just tell me if I'm doing this right…"
"Just do how I showed you…" You start gently rubbing her clit, but she immediately scolds you. "Not like that, I'm not a frail princess, at least show a little force! … Yeah, like that. So I guess it's my turn now, I should grab it with my hand and move my hand up and down, right?"
She doesn't wait for your answer, she immediately grabs your dick with her hand.
"Aargh! Don't squeeze it so hard!"
"Oh, sorry."

Since your hands are handcuffed behind your back, you can only give tips to IF verbally and hope she'll execute it correctly. At first, she's completely occupied with stroking your dick, but she quickly gets used to it, and starts to help you with her other hand when needed, or just pinch ears and things like that when not.

It feels like you only started this act a second ago, you barely had any time to enjoy it, but since you were already horny, combined with the fact that for the first time in your life, you're not masturbating alone, you quickly reach the point.
"Um, I'm about to cum…"
"What? No, wait, I'm not ready yet…"
"Then slow down! Or rather, stop completely!" you say, but it's already too late. A single gentle thrust is enough to push you over the edge, and ejaculate. You can't see what happens, but you can already feel it's a much bigger load than usual.
"Oh no… But then at least finish me!"
You unintentionally stopped rubbing her when you came, but now you resume with even more vigor.
"Yeah, do it! Harder, faster, come on!"
You seriously start to worry about your finger breaking off, or you dying from exhaustion if you have to continue this for more than a few minutes, fortunately she soon comes with a loud shout. So much for not disturbing the others.

You both pant for a minute, then without warning, IF removes your blindfold. The sudden brightness hurts your eyes, you have to squint to bear it.
"Huh?"
"I… I originally used that blindfold so you won't be able to see me naked, but after the recent happenings, I think it lost its purpose."
Now you can use your eyes again, you look around. There's cum on the tip of your penis, on your leg, and all over the floor. Now that you think about it, the last time you masturbated, you were still in the school, you didn't really have time for it since that, so it kinda explains the huge load. You try to turn your head, but as IF is still hugging you from the behind, you can only see her head resting on your shoulder.

Since she's still behind you, you decide to poke her again, just for fun.
"Hey! Looks like I managed to erase any signs of modesty from you, but now calm down for a minute."

"Are you alright?"
"Yes, it was nothing."

She's the one who's on the top in more than one sense, and since your hands are still cuffed, you can't do much. She starts to ride you, slowly at first, then gradually speeding up. You look down, you can see some red fluid emerging in the water. Congratulations, you ruined the bathing water, but neither of you care about it. As she continues riding you, the previously not experienced pleasure overflows both of you, the outside world stops existing and the time stops, the orgasm comes too soon. She comes first, but the sudden squeeze pushes you over the edge and you shoot your seed right into her womb.

She picks up the key and opens your handcuff. You take a moment to stretch your arms before standing up and leaving the bath. You find a towel to dry yourself, then you look at your clothes. The underwear is probably still usable, but the Dogoo completely ruined your trousers and T-shirt.

"No, I'm fine… But on the other hand, if you volunteer to clean the bathtub then I can go and get Noire faster."
"Got it."
"Cool. Just clean it with some running water after it drained."

IF picks up her clothes then leaves the room.
You look at the bathtub, in reality only the water got a little dirty, you quickly rinse it and it's done. You wash your hands afterwards, and you pick up a towel to dry yourself, when you hear a sound from the door. You look around, but it's not IF, it's Noire. Shocked, you try to cover yourself with the towel while you see IF grabbing the equally shocked Noire and dragging her out of the room.

"W-Why is he naked?"
"He's in a bathroom after a bath. Didn't they tell you to don't barge into a bathroom without knocking?"
"T-That's… Anyways, listen Anon. Unfortunately I don't think I have any clothes for you, and the shops are closed by now. I can get you some clothes in the morning, but I'll have to take a few measurements, so please put on something."

You properly cover yourself with the towel before calling for Noire again. She comes in, and she makes a "hmm" sound upon noticing you. After looking at each other for a few awkward minutes, she finally starts to speak.
"Listen, as I said I can't really get you anything until tomorrow morning, I only have girl's clothes, and a few bathrobes. But don't worry, I-I know a few good t-tailors in Lastation, so just tell me what kind of clothes you want."
"Just some plain clothes…"
"No, that's just plain boring. You're not some plain boring man, so your clothes shouldn't be either. Just tell me what would you like to wear, I can mak… I mean bring it to you, even if it's a very special cosplay or something like that!"

"I'd like an outfit with… hmm, it's easier if I show it, I think I have a picture in my inventory…"
You open your inventory. You know you shoved that a picture of that archer guy, it should still be there. It takes some time to sort out the junk you have in your inventory, but after a few minutes you find the picture.
"Wow, you were carrying that picture with you all the time?! D-Don't misunderstand me, that's great, can I borrow this picture until tomorrow?"
"Sure."
"So, let's check, I've taken all the relevant measurements, I have a photo of the outfit, so we're all set. Your costume will be ready by morning, but unfortunately that doesn't solve the immediate problem. There's a bathrobe on this shelf, you can use it.

"The room with Yumi and Taro. *sigh* What's going to happen with them? Anyway, this next room should be…"

First time in a long time that we actually decide to sleep of our own accord
>>5170
(And this is where I originally wanted chapter 2 to end…)

You go to the bed and fall asleep almost immediately, it was a tiring day after all.

You can't sleep for long however, as you soon wake up to some sounds. Unconsciously, you open your eyes, it's still dark, but you can see a figure slowly approaching your bed. You can't completely hide your bewilderment, and looks like the figure also notices it.
"Don't be alarmed," you hear a familiar sound, "I don't want to hurt you."
"Y-Yumi?!"
"I made sure that I wouldn't be able to hurt you, even if I wanted it, look."
She turns around, you can see her hands handcuffed together behind her back, but it's not the only thing you see. There's a chain, starting at the handcuff, continuing downwards, ending up in another cuff, linking her legs together.
"I also cuffed my legs together, so I can't run away."
"W-Why?" is all you can say, you're too confused to formulate coherent thoughts in this situation.
"I-I, I still don't get everything, but I realized that what I did to you… it was a very bad thing." She turns back and continues to walk toward your bed. Now that you look at her again you realize she's completely naked, save for a ballgag, hanging from her neck, like a necklace. "If you can't forgive me, I can understand it, you have every right to hold a grudge against me. I know it's not much, but I'll offer my submission, and please, teach me, in both senses… that is, teach me a lesson, so I won't try to do it again, and also teach me the correct way to behave! You have the right to do anything with me… um…" she turns her head left and right, looking for something, "there's not much here, you can bring anything from my room, or we can go back there. Oh, and here's a ballgag, you can use it if you want me to shut up already… but if you want, you can just order me, I'll obey."

You take a look at her, even thought it's dark, you can still see her worried expression.

Yes, what happened in the prison, it was brutal, but it also had good parts, and with a little modification it can be turned into something that's fun for both parties, even if you don't believe it. You should really try it, ask me for advice anytime. Unfortunately, I wanted to take revenge, and I went overboard, and I ended up just like them… I shouldn't have done it. *sigh* In the prison, if we did something wrong, we got a severe punishment as reward, it was a cruel but very effective method. What I did is inexcusable, so even though this kind of punishment is probably not that common, I don't think anything less would be an adequate response to my previous actions. So that's why I am here, I'm all yours, please do as you like. If you don't know what to do in a situation like this, I can give you suggestions, but please! Don't say you don't care about what I did to you, because I might end up doing the same thing again with you or worse, somebody else."

"…I guess this is how you escaped from my chains, right? Anyways, I'm really going now, bye."
"Have a good night Yumi."

She turns around and slowly walks away. After she leaves your room, you turn back to your bed, and a few minutes later fall asleep again.

He's unarmed, but he looks dangerous nevertheless, you don't have much experience in fist fighting, but you prepare to block his attach, in case the situation goes out of hand.

Fortunately IF appears just in time, a kick in the right place, and the unsuspecting opponent is already on the floor.
"Just what is this commotion again?!" Great, now we have an annoyed Noire too.
"I… I don't know what he did to Yumi… that monster… but she was crying the whole night!"

After finishing the preparations, you sit at the table to eat the breakfast. Taro is just sitting there, quietly, he just pokes at his food, only occasionally taking a bite. You decide to quickly eat your breakfast while you can, you can't be sure when will the next shitstorm arrive. The breakfast is some toast with butter, eggs and vegetable slices. Nothing too fancy, but at least it's easy and quick to make, and while it doesn't even come close compared to Compa's breakfast, it's not too bad either.

As I was sleeping, I suddenly saw someone enter my room and walk towards me, it suddenly spoke and apparently the figure was Yumi. She said that she didn't want to hurt me, and showed me that not only was she naked, she cuffed both her hands and legs together. It seems that she realized what she did to me yesterday was wrong, and wanted me to punish her for it. I didn't, because after what all that happened to her in that facility, no one would be in the right state of mind. I told her that we should go to the hospital the next day for her to get a proper check-up and to get help. She was surprised at the whole suggestion but, she seems to be willing to go, albeit very reluctant. After that she started talking about herself and that some of her old memories re-surfaced after watching some of the anime that Noire gave her. Apparently in the prison they were punished severely for any kind of misbehavior and her mind just snapped to that punishment ordeal after I refused her advances. I was angry at her for doing that to me, but like I said, it was probably just her lashing out after her time in that facility. She seemed to have calmed down after that and I unlocked the cuffs off her and told her good night.

And that was it, I went to sleep afterwards undisturbed, aside from the alarm clock.

"Probably because I refused her advances. I told her that there's someone else. Plus, even if I was looking to start a relationship with her, it wouldn't feel right having sex under those conditions. So I did nothing wrong and I am not hiding anything. That's all. So what we will do now?"
"Based on yesterday, I thought you'd fuck anyone who shows the slightest intention of it. … But anyway, I think we should have a chat with Yumi before leaving back to Planeptune."

You decide it's better to just drop the topic and walk to Yumi's room. She's sitting on a little stool in front of a window, staring outside. When she notices you, she asks "what do you want?" while continuing to stare outside. Her voice is quiet and save for a hint of anger, she's completely emotionless.

"You alright Yumi? We're going to Planeptune now. Taro said that you were crying for the entirety of last night, what happened to you?"
"It's none of your concern. Now leave me alone."
"Please, Yumi. Something's certainly not okay with you, you should tell us what it is, maybe we can help."
"I thought you have your bitch to worry about."
"WHAT?!" IF shouts angrily. "Who do you call a bitch?!"
"I never said I was talking about you, but well, I now know it was you."
"Ugh."
"Whatever, it's probably better if you stop questioning me, I don't want another slap from her."
"I see… listen Yumi, I-I'm sorry. I probably shouldn't slap you like I did, but I was too angry, and… and I lost my mind and…"
"Don't worry, we all did things that we later regretted, it's no use mourning over it. … I can tell you something, provided you promise to don't hurt me."
"Why would I hurt you?"
"You… never mind. Taro, please leave us."
"Why?" you hear Taro for the first time since you arrived at the room.
"Trust me, you don't want to hear it."
"B-But? … Fine." With a sad expression, he turns around and leaves.

"You know, since I knew Taro, he was always such a beta. He did whatever I told him, without questions. Well, at least until he started hanging out with that S.G. guy, he probably wanted to become dominant and cruel, but to be honest, he sucked at it. I broke up with him when I had enough of his bullshit. However, a few months later, I ended up in the prison and things changed. The other people, they were nothing like Taro, they didn't know mercy, they didn't tolerate even the smallest disobedience. I don't know why did they even let Taro be there, he was completely out of the place, he was the only person there who showed a tiny amount of pity. I spent my days as a living sex toy, and I hate to admit it, but even though I really really hated them, I slowly started to accept my position and started to like parts of my ordeal. Yes, their mind breaking tricks certainly helped, but I'm pretty sure there were other reasons too. … When we managed to capture Taro and escaped, my first thoughts was to take revenge on him, but… I think instead of taking revenge, he actually enjoyed the humiliation, while I grew tired of punishing him. And like I said, he is probably the one who deserved it the least. This is when I started to think about it, 'maybe I like being on the receiving end more after all' and I just wanted to try it. I thought Anon would be a good candidate, but unfortunately he wasn't cooperative… Twice. … No, that's a lie, only once, first time I was only concerned about my sex deprival. Ugh, I give up. I no longer know what should I do with my life. It's fucked up beyond recognition, pieces of normal life here and there, but the memories of the prison cover it and I-I don't think I'll ever have a normal life again…" She starts to cry again.

Something touches your shoulder, you look at the source, it's IF's hand.
"I think I'll leave you two alone, maybe you can help her somehow. Everyone is filled with anger and frustration, I too said some mean things to you this morning, even though… uhm…" she starts to blush while continuing in a whispering voice, "I never felt that good in my whole life. So do whatever you feel like you have to do, I won't judge. She needs help."

"Um, would you release me for a minute?"
"Yes, but why?…"
Without answering she turns around and hugs you back.
"I-I hope you don't mind. Please just let me stay like this for a few minutes. I know, there's Taro, and I should leave you alone, but… sorry, but in my state I need someone strong and steady, he's just too weak, he can barely support himself. … About my normal life… I've been thinking about it since escape, but it's too far and fuzzy, so the memories from the prison usually take over. And uh, I don't know what's wrong with me, but if there isn't a dick in my pussy for more than 10 minutes, I start to go crazy. The situation improved a bit since yesterday, but it's still pretty bad. After you uncuffed me and sent back here last night, I didn't know what to do, I was furious and resigned at the same time, I was aching for pleasure, yet I didn't want to do it because I thought you would disapprove it… and I think I just started to cry, how hopeless I am. Of course, I couldn't stand the night without masturbating three times, I'm really sorry. Did I fail you?"
"No, like I said it will probably take more than one night to recover, so just take it one step at a time."
"T-Thank you!" she replies while crying. "Sorry to bother you with all my problems, and just you know, what I said last night, it still stands. I see you're not interested in this kind of sexual play, and when I chained you to the wall, I also gave a very very very bad example of what it looks like… I mean, I acted like the cruel heartless bastards in the prison, and uh, even thought he didn't complain, I did the same thing to Taro. Nevertheless, if you ever change your mind I'll be there. And who knows, maybe I can teach you some tricks."

"What's the dungeon called by the way? While I feel a little uneasy about it, I need to get that item, because I promised it. Also, to get stronger so my level isn't single digit."
"I heard they appeared in Toh-Kiden Cave. There are a few strong monsters around there, so we'll have to be careful, but the Dogoos should be okay. Just don't let them too near as they can paralyze you."
"Uh."

After a short walk, you arrive at the entrance of the cave. A bit hesitantly, you follow IF inside.
There's a big open space inside, filled with monsters – a big golem, and multiple Ice Boys and Ice Girls.
"Hmm, we have to get to that passage, follow me quietly."
Following the wall, you cautiously sneak to passage, then walk through it. You arrive in a different chamber, this one is filled with Dogoo like figures, but unlike normal Dogoos, they actually float! They also have tentacles… you really hope they won't try to rape you.

"So, you said you want some practice, right? Hmm, there's a lonely one to the right. I'll take a few steps forward so I can kill it before it reaches you, try to shoot the Dogoo and not me, you hear me?"

"I see. Well, carry on. I will be going back to Planeptune, see you."
You meet IF outside the room and you start your journey back to Planeptune.

While walking the streets of Lastation, your phone suddenly starts to ring. You pick up the phone, it's Nepgear.
"Hello Anon, I hope I didn't wake you up…"
"No. Apparently Noire likes to wake up early in the morning."
"Oh, yes, she's really hard working. Listen, when do you come back to Planeptune?"
"We're heading back right now."
"Great. You should go to Compa's clinic, we've found Yumi's father."
"WHAT?!"
"Yes, you heard right. He's in the detox now, he consumed too much alcohol. Oh, and there's one small thing, you're with IF now, right?"
"Yes."
"So, the results of IF's blood tests arrived. I'm only telling it to you, I trust you will tell her when the time is right… so in short, it's still not clear how they managed to knock her out, but the blood sample contained a huge amount of estrogen and other substances commonly found in aphrodisiacs… so be careful, even though its effect should have worn off by now."

Also tell IF about negative effects of these drugs that were used on her.

"Of course. About the negative effects… it increases libido and, um… if the concentration is too high, the person can go crazy until her sexual needs are satisfied… and maybe others, I'm not sure. … I had a conversation with Compa, and she said it looks like IF has a crush on you… she was always a cool and composed girl, but she can be quite sensitive when it comes to topics like this. And lately, I feel like her mental stability is not too good… so be careful, she's a kind person who would never hurt innocent people, but she's also very powerful. If she decides to unleash her power, I don't think you would be able to stop her."

What constitutes as too high of a concentration..? I believe she got injected with a syringe worth of the stuff. 

Do we still have a sample of the stuff with us? If so, let's bring it for further examination.

You hang up and return to IF.

"What was it?"
"Nepgear called. Could we sit down and talk for a moment?"
"Yes, but… what's happening now? Why can't we talk while we're walking?"
"It's about you. She noticed that recently something is not okay with you."
"What?! I-I'm perfectly fine, there's nothing…"
"No, you're not fine. I can feel that something bothers you."
"Uhh."
"Also, the results of your blood tests arrived. Looks like they drugged you with some kind of aphrodisiacs."
"… WHAT!? Are you sure? Did Nepgear really say that?!"
"Yes."

IF curls up and starts to weep softly.
"Why? Why me? Where did I fuck up!? … At least now I understand what happened yesterday. Sorry, I shouldn't have scolded you in the morning, it was me who was too pushy yesterday, it's not your fault. I hope it hadn't left a huge scar, I would never forgive myself."

"Thank you… but now it's high time we head back to Planeptune. Did Nepgear say anything else?"
"Um… oh, yes, they found Yumi's father."
"… WHAT!? Geez, you could have said that earlier. Where is he?"
"At Compa's clinic."
"That means we will have to leave Yumi in Lastation for the time being. Anyhow, we should hurry to the clinic then, let's go."
IF helps you get up, then you start walking. You grab her hand… she doesn't seem to mind, so you just end up walking while holding hands.
You reach the sky harbor and you check the timetable. It looks like you just missed the 8:00 departure by 3 minutes, while the next departure is only at 9:00.

"Yes, it's a special alloy, Avenir guarded its secret for a long time. I can repair it, but unfortunately I only have one shell, while I'd need three shells to repair them. Maybe I can do it with two, but one is certainly not enough. There should be a few one left in various abandoned Avenir storage rooms, though."
"I know that, but don't you know an exact location? That company had hundreds of storage rooms…"
"No, unfortunately… Or maybe, wait a bit. Singe! Come here!"
"Yes?"
"Look at these cogs."
"Hmm, they're badly damaged. You'll need 3 Unexploded Shells to repair it and we only have one."
"Yes, I know that, where can we find more Unexploded Shells?"
"There should be a few one left in Avenir storage no. 35. But be careful, I've heard that the place is infested with level 100 monsters."

While you drink your tea, a businessman arrives and hurriedly orders some breakfast, quickly consumes it and leaves. Other than that nothing happened, you just stare into the empty cup wondering what to do next.
You forgot to check the time when IF left, but it probably took about 10 minutes to drink the tea, walking to the cafeteria, ordering and waiting took about 5 minutes, so that means it's still a good 15 minutes until IF returns.

You decide to take a walk outside, check out the surroundings.
The cafeteria is a small building between big and tall, factory like structures, polluting the air with black smoke. You can easily tell, the cafeteria's location isn't exactly fortunate, if you don't already know where it is, you won't stumble upon it.
However, you can't muse on this problem for long as the waitress runs out of the building.

You return to cafe and pay for your order.
(Inventory: 81 Credits, keys, bow and arrows, phone, outfit)

You return to the outside and take a walk around the block. It looks like a big manufacturing plant, various small factories all over the place, other than that there are only a few small shops and restaurants, all of them completely empty, probably for the workers when they're on a break. Finally, you find a little park, but it's in a very rough shape, the trees and plants are almost dead, the benches are broken and dirty, you don't feel like sitting on any of them.
After loitering around the park for some time you decide to head back, since IF should return in a few minutes. You walk back to the factory and stop in front of it.

"Yes, she'll be fine. I know this factory is not as pleasant as the cafeteria, but maybe you can take a seat there, or just watch the factory, you should be safe as long you stay behind this railing here."
"Okay. Thank you."

You decide to watch the factory and the various people working with the machines. They're making various tools from iron, and as a result of it, the inside of the factory is very hot and noisy. You continue watching for a few minutes, when you hear a familiar voice.
"I'm back."
The voice is familiar, but the mood is not. The vigor and willfulness is gone, it's resigned and sad instead. You quickly look at the direction of the sound, it's IF… but her clothes are torn, and she's full of bruises. Her symbolic Leafy Bow is also missing.

"Alright, she was here just few minutes ago."

It doesn't take long to find Chian, she was talking with one of the workers when you arrived.
"Hello, Anon and… oh, what happened to you, IF?"
"Just a few stronger than expected monsters. But more importantly, I have your Unexploded Shells."
"Excellent. We will start repairing the cogs right away, it'll take about 10 minutes."
"Thanks."

You leave Chian so she can work on those cogs without you disturbing her.

Since Chian ran off, probably to find Singe, you just ask a nearby worker for directions. He sends you to a small room, it looks like a small kitchen, it has a coffee maker, a microwave oven, and a few first-aid kits.

You open one of the kits and take out some bandages.
"Alright, let's just use it for worst scratches."
"Then I think I should get this thing out of the way," she says as she takes off her oversized blue coat. You only took a glimpse at the coat, but you immediately noticed a patch of blood at the back of the coat. You quickly check out her back, the tank top almost split into two pieces, and in the cut you see a huge, vertical wound. Now that IF removed the coat, it damaged the weak scab over the wound, and it started to bleed again.

"Now you're just exaggerating. Unfortunately I don't see a mirror around… but if you want, you can take a photo with this phone."

Since she doesn't want to listen to reason, you take a photo of IF's injury. When you hand it back, she frowns.
"Um, I can feel a small amount of pain at my back, but I didn't think it was that bad… Okay Anon, I think you should just try to bandage it as well as you can, then we pick up the cogs and hurry back to the clinic in Planeptune. We wanted to go there anyway."

"I will try to stop bleeding. However, I am doubtful about my skills in doing this."
You try to apply some bandage to the wound, which is not that easy, because if you would roll it around her body, you'd mummify her, plus you don't have enough bandage for that anyway. So instead you apply one vertical patch of bandage and you try to fix it at the two ends. It's not the best, but it should do it for the time being.

"So, it's not too good. I would like to ask someone else here to deliver them instead and to take you to clinic still in Lastation for better patchwork, because I think that wound is way too big to travel between countries with it. You might not feel the pain now, but I'm sure that's just the adrenaline."
"But I could walk here without problems, it can't just be adrenaline. … And to be honest, I think it would upset Compa if she'd figure out I left the job of bandaging me to some random lastationian nurse. … A-And the people at the sky harbor, they need the cogs as soon as possible, we can't keep them waiting.

But I think Compa would be more furious if something bad happened to you. After showing her pic of that wound, she would understand that anyway. She would literally kill us if she sees you with that wound on your back knowing that I failed to do anything. So let's just ask someone to take the cogs back to the harbor then immediately go to a hospital, okay?"
"… Fine. Let's do it."

You leave the small room and fortunately you find Chian in a nearby corner, so you walk there.
"Chian, I have to take IF to the hospital, but that way we won't be able to take the cogs back to the sky harbor. Could I trust you with returning the cogs please? People can't get across Planeptune and Lastation until they're returned."
"Oh, is the situation that bad? I mean I saw that IF has a few scratches but I didn't think that they're so serious. But of course, leave it to me, it the least I can do after all the help I received from IF and her friends."
"Thank you, and bye."

You leave the factory.
"So, Sherlock, do you know where's the clinic in Lastation?"
"…no?"
"Just as I thought. Alright, follow me, it's about 5 minutes of walking from here."

IF starts walking and you follow her. She's walking much faster than usual, so you can't really talk with her… but you can see on her face and the way she walks, she's badly hurt and she must experience an acute pain, but she tries very hard to hide it.

Finally, you reach the clinic and enter the building. You don't get to say a thing before a passerby nurse notices IF, and she runs away shouting "EMERGENCY!" A few seconds later, a small group arrive towing a bed. They quickly pick up IF, lay her on the bed and then they start to run away.

Go after them towards ER, sit down at nearby chair/sofa shortly before it.

"I think I will need to prepare some good excuses myself and for her soon. Especially, when they could show up rather agitated here and knowing them for that short while they probably will." 
"Also there is still matter who exactly sabotaged that cable car and for what purpose. Necessary materials for repairing it were in very high level dungeon, so it couldn't be done by normal person or monster.

"… Yes."
"I'm sorry for the recent happenings, but she looked badly hurt so we didn't have time to stop and ask questions. She had a deep cut at her back, we had to clean and stitch it.

You start to have a bad feeling so you decide to check the door of the room. It's open, inside you find IF laying on a bed with various cables attached to her.
"Um, hello, are you alright?"
"I could ask the same thing about you, you look completely pale. Did something happen."
"The doctor asked about the injury so I told him that you're a guild member and…"
"You told him I'm a guild member? That wasn't a wise choice." She sits up in her bed, and she starts to tear off the cables attached to her, some machines start to beep loudly. "We don't have time for explanations now as we have to get out quick. Just follow me!"
Before you could react, she already jumped out of the bed, grabbing her damaged coat and stormed out of the room.

You follow her, back in the corridor, you see the doctor followed by a bunch of people in black suits to your left, running towards you.
"Here they are! Don't let them get away!" shouts the doctor.
"Shit! Come on, this way!" IF starts to drag you.

"I see. Well, for now let's just get out of here."
"Yeah, let's go."

You follow IF and take a roundabout route to the harbor, just in case someone is still pursues you.
When you arrive at the harbor, the previous NPC immediately greets you, thanking your hard work. If you didn't help them, they wouldn't be able to start the train at the scheduled time of 9:00.
"I know it's not much, I'll be indebted for my whole life, but can I do anything for you in return?"
"Actually, yes. We have to go to Planeptune, as soon as possible."
"Of course, get in this car, I'll personally drive you to the other side."
"Thanks."

The view from the car is still amazing as it quietly drives to the other side, but you can't enjoy the view, you're too concerned about the recent happenings, and about what would the future bring.
You finally reach Planeptune, leave the car, and say the friendly NPC goodbye.

"Then let's go in this room. … Oh, it's a very ugly injury, let me bandage you."
"Hey, stop it, you're mummifying me again! Do you hear me?!"
They're so loud that you can even hear them through the closed door.

"I had a feeling that this would happen if Compa sees IF like this."
"Haha," Nepgear laughs nervously, "she's like this, it cannot be helped. But while they're away, about my last call, how was it? Other than the monsters, did anything weird happen? … But I don't get it, that substance shouldn't have a weakening effect…"

"When I brought IF to clinic for patching awful wound on her back, we were chased out of hospital when I informed doctors that we were from guild. I didn't expect that to happen."
"If you want to see how bad it was IF still should have picture of it on one of her phones. I recommend waiting 2-3 hours before seeing it, if you ate something earlier though."
"That situation reminded me that I don't know anything about world from being sheltered at that school for this long. So I will need basic rundown on world events very soon to avoid these situations."

"Thanks for the info, I'm pretty new to this world as well, you should ask IF or the CPUs for things like that. Yet, I was more interested in whether she did anything weird or things like that…"

"Bandage complete!" the door slams open next to you.
"Ugh… I can't move my hands." IF walks out of the room, her upper body is covered in a thick layer of bandage. Above waist, she really looks like a mummy.
"No, you should just sit down and rest, you'll get a lighter set of bandages a few hours later."

"Better listen to the nurse, IF. By the way, how mad Compa was after she saw your back anyway?"
"What's with Iffy's back desu? I just saw wounds all over the place, so I bandaged them good!"
IF doesn't say anything, but you can see a slight relief on her face.
"Okay, I'll sit down, just tell me if you find out anything about Yumi's father or anyone else."

"Oh, he's fine, other than drinking too much alcohol, nothing bad happened to him. Unfortunately, he can barely remember anything about yesterday. He said that in the morning he found a leaflet about a nearby pub offering drinks, so instead of going to work, he went there… And that's all."
"That's just great. I'd like to talk with him later, when I'm no longer a mummy." She starts to walk back to the room. "Anon, I'll have to tell you something in private."
"Okay, just a moment."

Since Compa also went away minding her own business, you have a few minutes to talk with Nepgear.

"Is it possible that the drug deteriorates the victim's body? Unless the drug keeps getting pumped in their body? Wait, if that was true we should've seen it happen to Yumi."
"Wait, when did Yumi get shot? She weren't in the warehouse."
"Back in the prison."
"Oh… Are you sure she got shot by the same substance? It could have been something completely different. Anyway, you should try to ask her about this, whether she feels she's weaker than usual or something is weird about her body."


"About the other thing," you continue talking in a whispering sound, "she was unable to calm herself and was more likely to get mad, but it should be done by now."

"Thanks, maybe we should try speaking with Yumi too, provided she returned to normal. I heard Noire had problems with her."
"Uh, yes, she was pretty crazy yesterday. I really hope the medicine helped. Alright then."

You walk to the room with IF. It's a small hospital room with two beds, but the only patient here is IF.
"Hello Anon, please close the door."
"Okay."
"I hope you didn't spread any weird rumors about me."
"I'm offended. Why would I do something like that?"
"Okay, I'm sorry." She murmurs a few words, you can't make them out, but she looks sorry. "Anyway, I have a favor to ask. In the last few hours many things happened, and now that Compa bandaged me like that I can't even move my arms… and, um, I still remember what happened with you, so I don't want to ask Compa… but I have to go to pee.

"Okay, I'll help you, sure thing. Just make it quick, it's embarrassing. So… do you want me to carry you… or, walk you to the toilet?"
"Dummy, I can walk on my own fine, the problems are with my hands. This way I can't remove my shorts…"

Without even waiting for your answer she starts to walk toward the little bathroom attached to the room. You follow her, close the door then turn around. She's now standing in front of the toilet, staring at you.

You gently get off the shorts from her, just to reveal a plain white pantsu under it. Hesitantly, you remove it too, then tell her, "now I am going out to give you some privacy. I will come back after you finish."
"Hmm, so you want to play the modest card again… but after yesterday, I will no longer believe you. Somehow you always end up in one room with me while I'm naked… you didn't have problems going along with my perverted ideas… why are you trying to hide it, even from me?"

>"But if you're interested in robots, ask Nepgear."
"Not really. I was more interested in creating non-hostile monsters to use them as buffer between hostile ones. Crazy idea with so many issues that I don't know where to even begin."
"It might work, but I'd rather try to get rid of the root cause of the monster infection. At first, we thought that defeating Arfoire would solve the monster problem too, as it would put an end to the monster disk supply, but unfortunately that's not the case."

"She is a fujoshi? It could be worse, I guess. At least I know how to handle these reasonably well."

>"don't tell anyone that I said it, but yes, every CPU and Candidate has some peculiar traits…"
Tell whispering "I noticed that. Can you share your knowledge about that with me, so I won't get angry goddess/goddesses trying to just fuck my shit up?"
"Um, I shouldn't speak ill of them while they're not here, but… you met Noire, she's your typical tsundere, and Uni would be the tsundere in training. Blanc, she's usually very quiet, but when she gets angry, she explodes. And she gets angry over everything, especially over her chest size. About Rom and Ram… Rom resembles Blanc's quieter side, she would never hurt anyone, while Ram resembles Blanc's violent side, she likes to play pranks on the people or generally cause ruckus. We already talked about Vert, and Nepgear… well, I don't really know what should I say about her. Oh, and one more thing, when they transform, their personalities change too. Except Nepgear's, she stays the same."

>"Maybe Nepgear is the most normal among them."
"That's what I think too."

>"I think you should find Compa and ask her when she's going to remove these bandages."
"Alright, I'll look for Compa. Anything else you want from her or just the bandage news?"
"No, I'm fine."

You leave the room, and return to the main hall of the hospital. Here you find Nepgear talking with a doctor, but you can't see Compa around.

You walk to Nepgear who's talking with the doctor about Yumi's father. The doctor describes his condition, but you don't understand much of the medical jargon. Apparently he had a very high level of alcohol intoxication, enough to kill someone if he's not prepared. He'll get right, but they need to keep him in the hospital, at least until this evening, maybe tomorrow morning.
"I see. Thanks for the information. … Oh, hello Anon, sorry, I didn't notice you earlier. What are you looking for?"
"IF sent me to get Compa…"
"Compa, hmm, I think she went that way" she says while pointing to a corridor behind you "to grab a snack from the buffet."

I'm just wondering whether our MC should know about this stuff. I mean he didn't know much about biology and chemistry back in the prison. I also looked at wikipedia for too long. Fuck me.
"What is going with Yumi father anyway and how many promils did he have, when he got here anyway?"
"5.23. But he survived somehow."
"That's… a lot. Then, I didn't know there was a buffet, but do you want to come with or are you busy Nepgear?"
"Hmm, sounds good, I'm starting to get hungry too. Let's go."

You walk to the buffet. It's a small shop with a few people around, so you immediately find Compa eating an anpan.
"Hello Nepgear, Anon-desu! Did you come here to eat something? Hmm, Anon," she moves towards you and start to whisper in your ear, "they're not as good as my cooking, but they're still pretty good!"

No, it was a school, but probably not a too good one. Some background story >>3738 >>3780 >>4075 >>4132, maybe others. This also reminds me, when our MC will meet Yumi's father, he'll probably have some words, based on his memories. Also, if both me and another Anon have no idea what the heck did you write, then that's probably not some basic knowledge. (Or we're both uneducated idiots.)


"Oh Compa, you know nothing can ever compare to your cooking, haha. And yes, I came here to eat, but it isn't only reason why I came here. IF wanted to know when her bandages would be taken off."
"Oh, she's doing that again? She's like you, she always tries to take off the bandages, but it won't do anything good so I made sure this time she won't be able to remove them. Don't worry, I'll be more careful with catheters right now… oh no, I forgot it, I have to go back, I hope she hadn't wet herself…"

When you arrive, you notice Compa sitting on a chair, crying. The door next to her is closed, but you hear a pounding sound from that direction, like someone is trying to open the door by running into it repeatedly. You also hear IF's voice.
"Hey, Compa, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way, please open the door! Do you hear me?"

"W-What happened?"

You turn to Compa.

"No, it's not about that… What did IF say exactly? Did you give her any reason to do that beyond trying to apply the catheter?"
"No desu~… I removed her clothes, and when she noticed what I was planning to do, she started to protest while trying to run away. When I finally caught her and started to insert the catheter, she started to say bad things, like she'll never be my friend if I don't stop and… and she'll never help me again and… things like that."

"… Glad to see you both still love each other," you say while Compa gets back to work. A few minutes later she finishes, IF, while still looking like a mummy, there are only light bandages on her arms now, so she can use it freely.
"Ahh, much better."
"Okay desu. I'll be nearby if you need something."

Compa leaves the room, while IF is thinking about her next move.
"Thanks for saving my ass. I'll have to find something to make up for today… But back to the business, did you learn anything useful about Yumi's father? Where is he, can we talk with him now? And, um," she takes a step toward you, "about that catheter thing, this time I let it pass, but next time… Huh, what's wrong? … SHIT!"
Looking down, she realized she's still naked, so she quickly ran to other side of the room to pick up her clothes.
"Geez, I ruined that moment again…" she whispers to herself, but it's loud enough to understand.

"Well, let's find Nepgear."

You leave the room and look around. IF starts to walk toward the hall, you follow her. To your surprise, Nepgear is still there, now talking with a guard. You walk to her.
"Oh IF, good timing. I've just spoke with the security, they'll station a guard in front of Yumi's father's room, just in case."
"Can we talk with him?"

You take the stairs to the third floor and you search for his room. It's easy to notice as there's a guard next to the door.
"Halt! What are you kids doing here?"
"IF, Planeptune intelligence," she says and presents a plastic card to the guard. "He's my assistant and we're here to interrogate Hanada Ichiro."
"Um, sorry, I mean of course Ma'am, this way."
He opens the door and you enter the room.

"IF, about what you just…"
"Shh! I'll explain later."
"Okay…"

Inside the room, you find a man, sitting on a chair next to a window. He slowly turns his head toward you, he has a bored and indifferent look, he probably doesn't understand the situation he's currently in. Even thought he's supposed to be Yumi's father, he looks older than that, his face is reddish and puffy, the signature of drinkers.
"Um, hello, you don't look like doctors, what are you doing here?" he asks. His voice is weak and resigned, it sounds like someone who lost all of his hope. "Hey, please, could you bring me something to drink? I need something to be able to deal with this situation…"

"Okay, enough of this," she interjects. "Try to do this again, and you'll have a much bigger problem to worry about. Yumi is alive and safe, stop denying it. She's in Lastation now, unfortunately she won't be able to come back here for a few days…"
"I don't believe you. Where's the proof?"
"Proof? Hmm… oh, I know!" She picks up her phone and searches for a photo about Yumi. "There you go, it's her, right?"
"Let's see… yes, it's probably her! But she looks a bit different now… so you abducted it! Where are you keeping her captive?! If you're looking for a ransom, you chose the wrong person, I don't have much money…"
"Calm down, she's no longer abducted, she's not in Planeptune because it wouldn't be safe… I can't tell you exactly why though, but hopefully you'll be able to see her in a few days. And nobody talked about ransom, stop talking nonsense and listen to me already!"

"And do you think that leaflet is important? Not really, I hope his tantrum won't last too long though, I'll give him 5 minutes…"
"Not important?! Are you stupid? At his house, we found a notice from G.S., he said he took custody of the father and wanted Yumi in return. The kidnap part was a bluff, but everything else was real. He knew that the father will disappear for at least a half day, otherwise he wouldn't write that letter. He told us to take Yumi to a warehouse, he left a pouch of money with a tracking device for us, and sent his goons to pick up Yumi. And inside the warehouse… well, they were prepared. I don't think that was just a random leaflet that somehow ended up in this guy's hands."

"I think you just answered your own question. He runs a secret underground organization that kidnap girls, but one managed to escape. It's natural he tries to cover the traces and tries get her back as soon as possible, lest it transpire."

"Have we done a background check on Yumi? Is G.S. just this insane or what?"
"Nepgear did check it, but she didn't find too much. We have basically no records about her before the disappearance, and even less about G.S. Yumi attended a fairly good high school with good grades, they were no problems with her. She once won a chemistry competition, she had a medical record about an injury caused by some corrosive substance, but that's about it. Then one day she just disappeared – she left the school normally, but she didn't arrive at home. The police records didn't even mention Taro. Actually, the police did an awful job, they just closed the case 2 months later without conducting a proper investigation. … Maybe we should look into this too, maybe he has connections even at the police. We have to be careful."

"And at the pub, did you notice anything?"
"No, everything was normal… or not exactly, now that you mention it, the bartender usually throws a fuss every time I go there, but this time he was a bit more friendly than usual."
"So it's not the first time you went there. How often do you go there?"
"I didn't go there often there lately, as I said the bartender don't really my like presence."
"Why?"
"Um…. do you really want to know it?"

"Do you think it could be some attack on her using acid or something like this?"
"They labeled it as an accident. She had an interest in chemistry and she didn't look like the type who would just stay quiet if someone attacked her, so it's possible it was really just an accident… Or nor, who know, maybe they blackmailed her or something like that. We should ask her when we meet again to make sure."

"I'm not fan either of those ideas, but I don't know what else can we do, other than…."
"Asking Compa to lessen the bandages?"
"Yes, I was thinking about it, but there's a fair chance she'll flip out… no matter, I'm taking that risk, I don't want to loiter here."
Looks like she made up her mind, you better not interfere… you follow her as she looks for Compa. Finally you find her at the end of a corridor.

"Compa, I have to go somewhere, could you please do something with this bandage so I can go outside?"
"But, Iffy, you should be resting after this accident… Okay, I get it, you want to do something, but no fighting this time, okay?"
"Of course."
"I see. Anon, could you give me a hand?"
"Yes."
You help Compa unwrap IF almost completely, just so she can bring another set of bandages. But just as she starts to roll the bondage around IF, she starts to choke.
"Ough, Compa, you're killing me, it's too tight!"
"But going around in a loose bondage is dangerous, so just endure it a bit more!"
"*Sigh*"
A few minutes later she finishes, IF is still covered in bandages, but at least now it's actually possible to wear that coat over it. You say goodbye to Compa and leave the clinic.

Inside you only find a few people, it's still before noon after all. The bartender is quick to notice you, and he welcomes you with a rather harsh voice.
"Hey, kids, what are you doing here? Get out!"
"He's Anon and I'm IF, we're from the Guild. We have a few questions, do you know this person?" she asks while showing him a photo using her phone.
"The Guild, huh? What is the Guild doing here? But yes, I know that guy, he's Ichiro. He pops up here every now and then, when he thinks I already forgot how much money he owes me. And of course he tries to borrow more each time he comes here. If you're here because he didn't pay for a job, you'll have a hard time getting your money back… unless he really changed now."
"No, we're here on a different occasion. Did you distribute leaflets recently?"
"Leaflets? No way, this place is already packed with people at night, I don't need more customers."
"Bingo."
"Bingo?"
"Never mind. Did anything noteworthy happened with Ichiro recently?"
"Hmm, yesterday he drank so much that we needed to call an ambulance, that was at about 01:00, today morning. Before that, a mysterious man came here yesterday morning, and paid his debts with interest."

Well, in Lastation food was something like 100-300 credits, beverages 80-120, sweets in the clinic 90-200, super-cheap chinese knock-off weapon on uber sale 1000 credits, basic potions 50-200. So he either likes expensive drinks, or he drank way too much.

>" It's possible that the leaflets were prepared by him too."
"I doubt that person is related to that."
"What makes you think so?"

>"But how will we find him? The description is too vague."
"Do you know anybody that somehow fits description, because I have weird hunch that this person paid that?"
"Anybody that fits that description? I know something like 50, if not more, it's way too vague. Brown jacket? That can be anyone. Glasses? We don't know if the guy really need glasses, or it was just a disguise, that won't help either. Short black hair? That applies to about half of Planeptune's male population, we can't question everyone. We could start questioning shops whether they saw anyone with black hair buying a brown jacket or glasses, but… well, I don't think that would work either."

To be honest, there really wasn't anything to talk about at these threads recently.
>"What makes you think so?"
"He would be more likely to make leaflets for brothel than for mere pub even to bait someone out."
>"I know something like 50, if not more, it's way too vague."
"Damn. Does your list include people who are able to say goodbye to 50.000 Credits to pay for some drunkard that they once knew?"
>We could start questioning shops whether they saw anyone with black hair buying a brown jacket or glasses, but… well, I don't think that would work either."
"That's waste of time. I would rather look at that drunkard work history and just look around these companies for someone that fits these criteria and ask them if someone paid debt for that guy or ask our tsundere goddess if she ordered someone to pay his debts."

"50.000 Credits is actually not that huge amount of money, especially if you're G.S or a goon of him. It's still way cheaper than kidnapping someone then trying to negotiate without breaking one's cover… You saw his cellphone transmission station yesterday, right? Looks like he knew we'll try to trace the signal, and set that up in advance. I'm pretty sure it's a part of one carefully developed plan, the leaflet, paying the debts, leaving the letter at his home, and organizing the exchange at the warehouse, with a couple of hitmen on standby, just in case things go sour."

You order your food, IF orders grilled fish with salad, mochi and black tea. You only have to wait a few minutes for your meal, you taste it and… it's very good. Of course, it's not as good as Compa's food, but it's almost as good. There's really no reason to complain, you can't pinpoint a single point where the yakitori is not perfect – it's just that Compa could cook it even better. About the mochi, it's indeed delicious, IF wasn't wrong about it.

"I think we should go to a Guild post, we have a few things to take care of and it looks like we have nothing urgent to do right now."

You wait for IF to pay the bill then,
"Thank you IF."
"No problem. Let's go."

You follow IF to a nearby Guild building, you enter it. It's very similar to the one you entered just after escaping from the school, even though it's in a different part of the town. IF walks to the attendant behind the counter, it looks like they know each other and she quickly explains that you need some forms to apply as a Guild agent.
"So Anon, here are two forms, you'll have to fill them before you can accept jobs from the Guild. Also, here is the" she bends over the counter and picks up a thick book, thicker than some encyclopedia, "terms and conditions. I mean, if you have 2 years to spare, because it would take that long to read it. … So just fill the forms then you can select a quest from this screen."
You look at the forms, the first form is mostly about basic personal data, like name, birthday, ID number, education, etc. The second form is more complicated, first it requires you to write down your fighting experience; weapon, magic and potion knowledge, then there's a place to list special abilities. At the bottom of the page they require you to name your mentor.
You look at the screen, there are four quests on it:
"Defeat Dogoos" - Defeat 10 Dogoos - Reward: 100 credits, Healing Grass x3
"Weird Creatures" - Defeat 5 Horsebirds - Reward: 200 credits, Nep Bull, INT Booster
"Save the princess" - Defeat Ancient Dragon - Reward: 500 credits, SP Charger x2, Nep Bull x2
"A Special kind of Pudding" - Collect 5 Exhausted Jellies - Reward: 200, STR Booster x2, Healing Grass

You can be creative when filling out the form, unless, of course, you refuse to sign it.

Ask IF about how strong Horsebirds are and how hard exhausted jellies are to get. Depending on her answer pick first, second and fourth quest.

You fill in the form about your basic info, you have to pick up your ID card from your inventory to write in its number… Moving on to the second form,
<fighting experience: Some, preferred range with a bow.
<magic experience: none
<potion knowledge: none
<special abilities: nothing worth mentioning. 
<mentor: IF

"Ugh, you'll really need my letter of recommendation… don't worry, I'll handle it, just select a quest in the meantime."

Now that I tried to search for it, it turns out Exhausted Jelly is an enemy and not an item. Fuck. Anyways, this time it's going to be an item.
"About the quests… how strong Horsebirds are? And are exhausted jellies hard to get?"
"Horsebirds, they're a bit tougher that Dogoos but not much, should be able to deal with them. Exhausted jellies are dropped by Expired Dogoos sometimes, they're not hard to find, but item collecting quests are always a gamble."

"Alright, Planeptune dungeons first then Lastation dungeons then."
"Let's go!"

You arrive at a big square with an even bigger building on the other side. The square is filled with people, you have to stay close to IF if you don't want to lose her.
Approaching the building it becomes clear, that building is the station.
"This place is packed with people, where are the Dogoos?"
"Just follow me, you'll see it shortly."
You walk around the building, and behind it you find a small alley, closed with yellow-black striped tape.
"Here's the entrance. Are you ready?"
"Yes."

You enter the closed area and after a bit of walking you reach the other end of the alley. It ends at another square, much smaller, but this one is filled with Dogoos instead of people.
"So here we are, there are plenty of Dogoos here. Do you need any preparation? I think you should be able to handle them, I'll stay here of course, but try to defeat them alone. You can try that lonely Dogoo to the left, unless you're confident enough to try that group of three over there."

"Area attack, using a bow, hmm. You don't know magic, right? Unless you can somehow shoot 100 arrows at the same time, I don't know… Okay, just shoot at this lonely Dogoo and I'll try to think of something."

You aim at the Dogoo and shoot. It has 20HP, damage 1d20-6 except if 1->hit IF, 20->critical hit, instant kill.

You shoot the Dogoo, but you barely miss it. Since it's still far away, you have time to shoot a second time. Critical hit! You hit the Dogoo right in his eye, killing it on the spot. It drops 5 Credits upon death.

"Something basic… Do you have a staff? No? Me neither. Don't worry, you don't need a staff to cast spells, it just makes it a little easier. So just do what I say. Look at that Dogoo, focus on it. Now imagine fires creeping up from the ground, roasting that enemy alive. How raise your hand, feel the power flowing through body, concentrating in your hands, ready to fire off. Do you feel the warmth in your arms?"
"…no?"
"Don't worry, just concentrate. Imagine the power leaving your hands as a big sphere of fire, directed toward the Dogoo; upon impact it detonates, setting nearby objects on fire. Are you ready? 3, 2, 1, fire!"
Huh? You don't have time to think about it, you try to concentrate and imagine that fireball and…

You feel the power of your body leaving through your hand, warming it up in the progress. Ouch, it's too hot! The whole world starts to tremble around you, enough to lose your balance and fall on the ground. You hear the noises of the nearby walls cracking. You start to cough due to the dust in the air, you need a few seconds until you can regain your senses and check your surroundings.
The Dogoos from the square disappeared, instead there is a single, huge Dogoo, right in front of you, already charging toward you.
"What's this!? Hey, Anon, stand back, it's too dangerous for you!"

You stand back to the end of the alley and you try to imagine a big lightning, which strikes the big Dogoo. You try to concentrate the power in your body, just like you did it before, getting ready to unleash it at the right moment.
The Dogoo attacks and hits IF, dealing 70 HP damage. Due to the sudden rage you release every bit of your power, hitting the Dogoo with your magic attack. It's so bright that it almost blinds you, it's so hot that it almost burns you as the electric discharge hits the monster.
It's a success, the massive impact sent the huge Dogoo flying toward the wall on the other side, but you can't rejoice yet. Your legs suddenly became heavy, you can't stand on your own, you collapse on the ground. You catch a glimpse of IF dealing a final blow to the Dogoo before you lose your consciousness.

End of Chapter Three

One random question, what should I do about the battles? It's pretty random and arbitrary how it works right now. Some proper system for stats with character sheets and d20 and shit would help probably, but I don't think I'm qualified for that.
Replies: >>5635 >>5636

Let's put it this way, if we do combat via ala-DnD we'll take forever. Just rolling a d20 to determine how well combat goes is good enough.

I host a weekly game, and it takes us maybe 2 hours to get through a single encounter… maybe because I have 6 players.

>Some proper system for stats with character sheets and d20 and shit would help probably, but I don't think I'm qualified for that.
I doubt that this is good idea.
Just using dices to determine how combat goes, story branching and maybe some ability checks is good enough.
(##1d20+13) Rolled 1 dice with 20 sides and modifier +13 = 18
To add to my comment about the d20, depending on our choices you can add in modifiers to make things easier or harder.
If we've been mostly focusing on magical abilities, if the situation calls for physical prowess, we have zero for a modifier, or god forbid a negative modifier, on the flip side if it calls for magic, we might have additional modifiers. The modifiers would help even out the innate randomness of a d20.

Also with zero modifiers, the difficulty check for our magical adventure was a 75% failure rate. So being able to do that should mean something, or it might not, depends on you.
