'Do you have a way to crack this nightmare?'

Antoan suddenly sent to him all of sudden while he was contemplating what to do. "Sigh, the way I have isn't suitable for anyone," he muttered before thinking about something.

'I have a bow that can help but it can't be used except by a dark player.'

'We have no dark players here,' Antoan said, 'besides I dunno how to be a dark player.'

"How to become a dark player?" Bloom muttered while the words Antoan casually threw just now had enlightened his master's mind with a brilliant idea.

'Just wait there I'll try to find a way for you all to become a dark player.'

Bloom hurriedly scanned his memory about anything related to dark players, but he couldn't. "All I know is just info from the Titan Revolut game not from here," he bitterly smiled.

The way used back at his past game was so simple, kill a player and you would turn into a dark player if not cleared this red status for the entire game day.

"I don't recall any info about this from the forums," he muttered to himself while rubbing his chin, "who could I ask for such info?"

The first person that came in his mind was Nara but he hurriedly excluded her. She was pretty angry at him right now and if he asked such a question to her she might explode again in his face.

"There is only you my old friend," he couldn't help but smile while opening his friend list and sent a brief message with one simply question:

'Do you know what it takes for a player to become a dark player?'

'What for?'

"Aggressive like your master," Bloom smiled while answering the way Jeffrey would like to hear. 'I want to know the weaknesses of my enemy and everything related to him.'

'And what does this have to do with how he became a dark player?'

'I just told you, I want to better understand him. How can I understand someone I dunno how he became the way he is right now?'

'…'

Jeffrey went silent for a moment and Bloom didn't pursue asking him and waited. He knew he was now speaking with Nara, and that might be the indirect and safe way to contact her.

'I have no such knowledge about such a thing,' he finally replied, 'Only Nara knows.'

"Damn girl, you are really mad," Bloom couldn't help but shook his head. 'Thanks,' he insincerely sent back to Jeffrey before closing up the chat.

"Should I ask her then?" he thought and he recalled how mad she was and decided to put that on hold for now. "I think Antoan could find a way himself," he then opened the chat with Antoan again and asked him to just go and look for the answer.

'Do you want all of us to become dark players?'

'Indeed,' Bloom said before adding, 'you just find a way to turn black and I'll provide the bow and the needed black points for you.'

'What black points?'

'You'll know when you get there,' Bloom simply answered before closing up the chat and returned again to his main task here.

"In villages there are only a few ways to get a skill," he thought while walking towards the most common place to get skills here; the auction house.

It wasn't that rare to find skills sold here, but it wasn't that often. He had to go and try out his luck there as this was the place with the highest chances of getting skills without losing more levels.

"Sigh, the entire auction had no single decent skill so far," he muttered in discontent while moving out of the auction house empty handed. "Then I should see the library."

He changed his gaze towards a big building to his north. It had a big circular dome surrounded by many smaller ones. "Going there is easy, but…" he hesitated as he recalled what he knew about the library to find small pieces of info that could really help.

"The manual…" he had this sudden enlightenment before hurriedly opening his character profile and choosing the manual icon from it. "Village famous NPCs… hmm, sounds nice but I should see village famous buildings first."

When he opened it, he found many items inside. "All this data… sigh, this would take some time."

The library icon opened to show him a very long row of items. Each item had many lines, pages, and even more subtitles under it. "I need to sit at a place and start studying."

He moved his gaze up to the restaurant of the village which he once ate at. He headed there while he started reading the entire manual about the library.

"Damn, how many more should I read to get my little tip?" he was frustrated as after reading for two hours and sitting idle there he found only one small lead about this.

"I have to read the famous NPC… c'mon! show mercy to me!!"

The way he found was through asking some NPCs special quests in return for gaining skill tokens from them. However these NPCs were referred to by the famous NPC in the library page.

He kept reading the entire page as he didn't want to read the other famous NPC page, but eventually he was screwed.

"All this… damn that's ruthless," he cursed when he spotted the long list of names in front of him. "And they aren't even labeled by their classes or ranks inside the village…" he didn't know how to curse about that.

For him this was a nightmare!

"Do you want anything sir?" suddenly the waiter asked him in a very familiar voice that made him instantly turn to spot the speaker.

"Nara?" he asked in surprise, "what are you doing here?"

"Stalking you," she moved to sit beside him while glaring at his eyes, "Jeffrey said you wanted to post our kiss video so I came to persuade you not to."

Bloom didn't buy it. he turned around to see if there were any more surprises with her or not. But she was all alone.

"I was joking," he simply said while adding, "I'm not that childish to do that."

"Really?" Nara moved suddenly closer to him while her body seemed quite soft all from its own initiative. "And kissing me in front of everyone was a joke too?"

She moved nearer that he could even smell her breath, however the next instant he jumped off the chair, turned around and simply landed on the ground of the restaurant with his swords raised in the air. "Who the hell are you?"

Suddenly the face of Nara changed to show up a vicious smile and very fierce expression that he never thought such an angel could have. "What blew my cover off?" the fake Nara asked while she took out two identical daggers and moved slowly and leisurely towards him.

"C'mon, be a good boy and tell me the answer," she said in a very crisp tone that was totally different from Nara.

"Damn, this game is getting stranger every day," he hurriedly retreated a couple of steps to keep the distance between him and the fake Nara.

"Why are you retreating? I heard that you can use a skill to negate any NPC's powers. Is that correct? Hurry and use it on me, let me have the sweet taste of it."

"You… are a freak," Bloom had an inner warning towards directly fighting this fake Nara as he turned around and started to run.

"Wait right there," the fake Nara shouted before moving at extreme speed to stand and block the way in front of Bloom. "This path is blocked and you have to fight me now."

"In your dreams," Bloom didn't even slow down when he jumped over the restaurant and attracted himself to the balcony of the lower level. He could descend all the way down, but he doubted he would survive dying like this.

Besides this strange foe was still mysterious to him. He was lucky he managed to detect his flaw in mimicking Nara's non-existent sweetness. "I should stall him for the guards to come," this was the only plan he had in mind.

"Oh, you can jump really fast," just as he stabilized himself in this layer, the fake Nara appeared just meters away from him. "C'mon, I just came all this way here to taste your skill."

"I can't do that," Bloom didn't stop there as he jumped again, and this time he decided he wouldn't stop at any level until he reached the ground, "I can't hit my girl."

"Such a romantic boy," the foe appeared once more just when he landed on the ground panting. "But I won't change this skin, I really like it."

"Damn," Bloom turned around and ran towards the closest building he could use as sanctuary.

"I told you, you can't outrun me or escape from me. Just give up and give me what I came here for."

"I won't fight you," Bloom sheathed his swords in a bold move while standing still. "Those good for nothing guards… they should have appeared here a long time ago."

"You are going to die," the faked Nara jumped the next instant as she ruthlessly stabbed him thrice with her daggers before he fell on the ground. "Wake up you fool."

The next moment he heard the sound of Nara shouting angrily at him. He opened his eyes to find himself lying on the table of the restaurant, and Nara stood there with Jeffrey and a couple of the entrusted team members; all were glancing weirdly at him.

Yet the next instant Bloom took out his two swords and jumped off the seat to land meters away from the group. "Aren't you tired of these games?" he viciously asked.
