This is all of them, huh...
It's okay now, so...
Why did this have to happen?
That's because...
Hey.
What kind of person got you?
What kind of person?
You saw them right?
I don't really remember... but,
it was a woman.
She was strong.
I didn't even last two hits...
I heard just now that Gord got PKed over on Esper.
It's not the same person I hope
Sakisaka-kun... what are you thinking?
I'm thinking that Tabby wasn't randomly PKed,
and that the target might be the Brigade.
Gord is a former member.
And even if it were so, what would they want with the Brigade?
That's what I wanna know.
Did they say anything?
They asked me about the Brigade...
And?
I said that I just joined so I don't know and...
Quit being so down just because you got PKed.
What about you?
Huh?
No arguing.
But Shino-san, since this guy joined...
You can't do things like go and get them back because they got us first, okay?
But...
You have to endure it.
I'm frustrated but...
I don't like PKing or being PKed so I agree with Shino-san's opinion!
It's a game so we have to have fun playing it!
I guess it can't be helped.
The Twilight Brigade...
I wonder what they're doing now.
You should go back then if it bothers you.
I'm not interested enough to let it bother me.
I was chased...
...and answered that I didn't know...
But I was thinking, "I really don't know anything..."
It doesn't have anything to do with us.
If we don't plan on bothering with the Brigade, that is.
It's not that easy...
To break away from them...
It's concerning the job that we took on last time but...
"Last time" doesn't mean anything to me.
Um... the one who wanted us to investigate a certain PC...
We investigated it.
Was it a claim?
No.
We received a strange item aside from the reward and...
Um... we don't really understand it and...
I don't mind getting extra stuff.
That is...
It was an item that we'd never seen before and...
This... who was the guy who brought it?
He went off somewhere but...
Get in touch with the person who brought it right away.
I'll hold onto this.
Yes.
Haseo! Wait a minute!
It's dangerous if you walk by yourself.
I'm different from you so...
Anyways, don't follow me.
Hey... is this... a coincidence?
Who knows.
Why now... the Lost Ground...
There was a dragon which slept at the bottom of this lake.
In order to store it's strength, it ate the people and monsters who came here.
And then...
The dragon appeared.
Yeah.
That's the kind of place that this is.
I hope that everything will go well from now on without any trouble.
It will.
Yeah.
They're not the type of people who would disappear just because they got PKed.
You should... talk to them.
That's your duty, right?
That's true but...
You know what that is?
Yes.
It bring back memories.
Brings back memories?
The previous game was overflowing with them but...
Where did you get this?
The source is unknown.
Seems like all sorts of PC's where shifted around.
I see.
Someone didn't know what to do with it.
If you want to stir up the Brigade, use this.
As for how to use it...
This could be interesting.
I see.
Wait a minute.
If it's a job connected with the Brigade then I'll do it.
It's better to have Tawaraya deal with the handling of the item.
Well then.
I'll get going.
So you're always here.
I thought that you'd come.
I want to meet Gord.
Where is he?
Is this a friend of yours?
Huh?
I just joined the Twilight Brigade! I'm Tabby!
Nice to meet you!
Call me Phyllo, missy.
It seems that all sorts of terrible things are happening.
That doesn't matter. Just tell me.
Well, I think he's still in town.
You met him?
No, he's with B-Set.
Huh?
Seems like she was chased too.
B-Set was?
Yeah. I think she's still in the alchemic district but...
It's the spot where B-Set always is.
You've been there before right?
I'm next after Haseo huh?
Well, don't say that.
I speak to those who might bring me profit.
That's the basis of this business.
Profit?
I mean, guys that I can use.
I don't feel like I'm being praised.
Um, here.
It's an item that Ovan's been wanting.
This is...?
What he plans on doing with that...
I honestly don't know.
Just...
What're you acting so important for?
That's an item that you can't utilize.
You can't utilize it...?
Key of the Twilight!
It might have something to do with it.
But go ask Ovan about that.
He's your guild master isn't he?
Do you really not know anything?
That's a problem.
Not giving the members information means that he doesn't trust you guys.
Either that or he's just taking advantage of the guild trying to get the treasure for himself.
No way...
How about pairing up with me for a bit?
I'll hold onto this.
Nice doing business with you.
Hey.
Where's Gord?
He's not here anymore.
Did he log off?
No.
But leave him alone for a bit.
Gord is always saying "Defeat Ovan!" You know that too, right?
It looks like he got a fairly big shock from being PKed by a PC that was just in the area.
"Defeat Ovan."
Haseo are you the same too?
No way.
A new person?
I'm Tabby!
What about you?
Are you targeting Ovan too?
No way.
And what did you want?
Did you get PKed too?
It was within town so I just got chased around.
Do you remember who it might have been?
What would you plan on doing if you knew?
At your current level you'd just get killed.
But...
Ender.
Ender?
You know her?
No... but why did TaN...
Eh?
Haseo! Wait for me!
You know that person named Ender right?
Hey!
I don't know them.
But just now...
Don't follow me anymore!
I told you! It's dangerous to be alone!
If you say that, Sakisaka's in danger too.
You really don't get it.
He's okay!
Huh?
Because he's my master! There's no way that he'd get beaten!
Anyways...You're annoying so...
Huh?
Why are you here?
Why? I was chasing Haseo but...
Master where were you at?
Just... um...
I'll go back to the Home so...
The person who was transferring in next to us...
Wasn't he that Haseo guy?
Is he already changing guilds?
Well compared to the Twilight Brigade we're on a totally different level so...
What?!
What do you want?
Calling me out here.
I wanted to hear your thoughts on this.
My thoughts?
In order to go to where the Key of Twilight is you must use an item that you can't utilize.
you must use an item that you can't utilize.
What do you think about this information?
And?
And what?
What do you want me to think about?
Do you think it's the truth?
Who knows.
You're a member of the Twilight Brigade right?
The Key of Twilight is-
No matter what that information might be like...
It doesn't concern you.
Too bad it does concern us...
I had Tawaraya directly leak that information.
Ender.
You know what to do next, right?
Yes.
Strike the weak points.
What exactly... are you?
What?
Are you interested in me?
It's you isn't it?
The one who's hanging around the Brigade and PKing them.
So what if I am?
Why?
Key of the Twilight...
I'm just looking for that.
Oh, it's Haseo!
Well, good luck.
Haseo!
Ha-se-o~!
What's wrong?
You have a really scary face.
Did something happen?
Nothing!
Jeez... I came all this way because I was worried about you.
Good for nothing!
That PKer...
It's amazing for you to be in town.
Shut up!
If you have time to be making comments like that the go get some information or something!
Jeez.
That one is...
Haseo.
What do you think about the information concerning that item that can't be utilized?
I think...
...that it should investigated.
As long as it concerns the Key of Twilight.
Then try it.
If it's a definitive piece of information,
then you're making the first move.
Ah! Haseo laughed!
I didn't laugh!
Well then...
There's something I want you guys to do.
What what?
I want you to go hunting for an item that isn't in the capture manual called a "Virus Core".
Virus Core?!
You know what it is?
No.
Shino.
You lead them.
Okay.
A Virus Core is an item that can only found in Lost Grounds.
You mean it's a rare item?
That's right.
Let's split up and look.
Is it really something that's so common?
I wonder... I don't think there's just one, but...
Hmm?
What does it look like?
Um, I think it's shaped like this, but...
It's pretty small huh?
I wonder if we can find it.
Don't you think that if you give up from the beginning,
even the things that can be found won't be found at all?
Yeah! You're right!
I'll find it first!
Is it really okay to move around separately?
We're being targeted you know.
Sakisaka-kun you're thinking too much.
Maybe so.
Well, I guess we'll do this.
It's beautiful here isn't it?
But...
I don't think that an item'll be found in a place like this.
The Twilight Brigade investigates all the information that we get.
You wanted to confirm this piece of information too right?
I wonder what that is?
I don't know either.
But it's okay.
Things we don't know, things we don't understand.
That's not just for the world of the game.
It's the same for real life schools, company's, and even the grocery store where you work at.
Huh?
It's because you don't know that you get joy from knowing.
You don't understand, so there's enjoyment in understanding.
Even if you don't know the rules,
you should enjoy your own role and feel your way through.
There's no such thing that isn't enjoyable when you know too much about it.
Tabby!
Th-Th-The PK person!
Note: The World R:2 seems to have an mass Ap Do spell called Hei...
Hei!
Your movement speed should have increased. Hurry!
It doesn't matter where you run to.
Either way you guys are rats in a cage.
Ah... it's so quiet.
Why did that person...?
It looks like she was targeting us.
Haseo...
Did you do something?
Me? Why?
Because, these people that passed by me said there were rumors that you switched over to TaN...
Tabby.
Because it's strange!
Huh?
Where did that information that you gave to Ovan come from?
What's "defeat Ovan"?
It doesn't matter anymore.
Haseo-kun.
If I leave, you guys won't have a problem right?
Tabby, you said too much.
Jeez.
That's not like you!
Are you depressed?
Hey! Haseo!
Don't call me!
If there's anything call me again!
Then is Haseo really...
