"That's a moderator platform." Cyprian sighed. "They're just moving around."

"That's so cool!"

As Cy looked, Arashi was already rushing off. He flew into one of the buildings and came out a few moments later from an upper window, before climbing into the roof to get a better look - as agile as an elf might be.

Cy frowned before he sighed and activated his Levitate ability to get to the roof. The giant, bird-skeleton thing was passing lazily by the building Arashi was watching from and he could see the Mods overlooking the city- some discussing amongst themselves.

The boy looked like a kid who was in a candy store for the first time - a look of pure astonishment on his face.

He jumped in surprise as one swooped close and the person on it laughed, before waving to them.

It was smaller than the big one that the Mods were on and Arashi now noticed there were a few of the smaller ones floating around the Moderator Platform like a aerial guard.

He took a seat and wrapped his arms around his legs, smiling softly and watching them for a moment, before glancing over at Cy and laughing. "I'm sorry! My father used to say he couldn't take me anywhere because I'd spend hours just watching the stupidest things."

"It's fine, you're not the first and won't be the last." Cyprian sighed before frowning at the Mods. "They look really serious about something."

Blinking, Arashi looked up and frowned. "They do... what are they looking at?"

He got up and moved to the edge of the roof, peering in the direction that the GMs were looking.

"Hey!" The ebony-haired teen gasped. "That boss is hanging out in this town! Look!"

"What!?" Cyprian hurried over.

Arashi was peering down as a form was moving along the pathway, all of the players watching carefully.

"Hello." The tanned, redhead said brightly- waving as he passed players. "Aww, the newbies are so little...cute."

"Wow," Arashi breathed - even more in awe now. "I wonder who does his voice acting-!"

He grabbed the edge of the building and hopped down, but landed wrong and wound up flopping onto his behind, losing 25 health points along with it.

"Arashi!" Cyprian scolded.

Arashi groaned and winced a little- was it supposed to hurt? Wait, no...that was just in his head...right? Then suddenly he felt a warm rush was air and his hit points maxed out again.

"There." The redhead nodded before walking on.

Arashi's eyes went wide as he stared at the NPC, who was still walking along.

Had it just... healed him!?

"Oh wow, a shop!" The Boss smiled and moved over to the counter. "Hello~ Your responses are limited, right?"

Cyprian floated down beside Arashi and helped him up.

"Don't go near him." He warned.

"Why not?" Arashi asked, frowning. "Its just a program..."

"They certainly are not!" The shop NPC huffed, placing her hands on her hips.
