13 Gold Digger
Count Silvester's Mansion
"It's her! What's she doing here?" Harvard put his back against a bark covered tree. "It's Count Victoria again! How did she level up so fast?"
[Count Victoria]
[Level 90]
[Reputation: Looking to Kill]
"Does she know Count Silvester? Why does she have to be guarding the entranceway that leads right to his safe!"
Harvard thought about his two choices. Option 1, try and sneak around 1 Count Victoria or Option 2 sneak around 200 level 50 Night Rebels.
'I'll go for Option 3! I'll try and talk to her!'
Harvard took a deep breath and looked out from behind the tree. He couldn't believe it. Merry, who she hadn't seen in two weeks, seemed to be delivering something!
"This is perfect! It's my chance!"
Harvard rushed out of the bushes and dived behind a another larger bush and peaked out. Merry handed Count Victoria the letter and suddenly she seemed to get upset. She then looked focused and started looking around watchfully. Like she was looking for a thief.
'There is no way. No way Silvia would tell Merry that I'm going to rob her father's safe, right? I promised her I'd steal it and then put it back tomorrow!"
Harvard looked up at the window and broke the glass quietly before he pulled the window open, and rushed inside.
Swoosh!
Harvard still had the average agility of most level 30 players, so he made it to the safe in under a minute. A few guards didn't notice him because they seemed to be watching Silvia's performance on a television.
"Thank god! You'll do great during the kissing scene!" Harvard took out the key and prepared to put it in the safe. He felt his confidence rising! This was the moment he'd been waiting for.
"It's finally time! It's finally time to bring home the bacon!"
"I caught you pig!" Count Victoria screamed. "Put your hands up in the air, right now!"
###
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Harvard dropped down on his knees in front of the safe. "Silvia told me to do it?"
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Count Silvia wiped the sweat off her head. "Merry brought over a pig to cook a celebration. I finally caught it."
"I-I'm here to help clean the safe." Harvard wiped the sweat from his head. "Count Silvester isn't supposed to know. I'm doing it for his birthday."
"Hmmm, okay. Dinner will be ready at 10 PM! Come watch the show after you're done cleaning out the safe!" Count Silvia winked and tossed a pig over her shoulder. "Hahaha! Oink all you want loser! You're getting roasted!"
Oink! Oink! Oink!
"I-I feel bad for the pig, and lucky to be alive," Harvard opened the safe. "Now let's see what's inside!"

'Wow, it's over! The nightmare is over!' Harvard put on the mask, and looked into the mirror. "He blinked a few times. He couldn't see the mask. "Wait, where the hell did the mask go! I just spent 3 weeks trying to get this damn thing!"
"Congratulations!" Merry climbed into the window. "Now come on! Let's go downstairs! Count Silvester is going to be so glad he finally got someone to wear that damn thing."
"What do you mean?" Harvard gulped and looked in the mirror. Oh god! This was a trick wasn't it? Wasn't it?"
"Count Silvester's father is the Midnight King. I won't tell you more than that," Merry winked and grabbed Harvard's hand. "Now come on! May got a small part in the show as well! She's right, front and center!"
"Huh, it's over. My week of robbing rare items and selling them back to other merchants to steal them again is over?"
Harvard walked down stairs and over to the couch. "I-I have one question. What's the difference between the Midnight Ruler and the Legendary Midnight Ruler?"
"The mask on your head," Merry jumped down on the couch. Now come on! May! It's your time! It's your damn time to shine girl! It's just one line! Don't mess it up!"

May Tape looked out at Sylvia kissing the male lead.
She was behind a large brick wall and had chains around her so she couldn't mess up her line.
"That's that!" May tape said with a smile, "They kissed a lot and had babies!"
"You're supposed to say it's over!"
"You suck!" Two audience members tossed tomatoes at May. "What the hell! We paid 100 Lograms! This is highway robbery!"
"My daughter is performing! I'll kill you all if you don't sit down!" A man in a black mask screamed and slammed down his hand. "Don't make me kill you!"
"And… that's the show for the day" Sylvia smiled and muttered to herself. "Thanks dad!"
###
Harvard bought the most expensive room he could as a treat for himself.
He'd made 2 million Lograms in the last 2 weeks. He may be near the bottom of the pack in terms of level, but at least he had the most Lograms!
In Central City, pretty much all of the players had reached level 30, and were starting to work on their second class. Alpha Thunder had pretty much given up on him, and had a full guild. The only one he still had was May Tape. However, she reached level 28 when he was robbing the black markets.
"Ugh, that show sucked. Everyone did a bad job except me!"
"How'd you find my room," Harvard sighed and crossed his arms. May Tape had been robbing him blind for the last three weeks. He bought her everything, food, shelter, clothes. Paid for her candy removed operations. "Just so you know. Tomorrow I'm going to seriously try and level up! I'm going to Central City! Are you going to stay here?"
"I'm a gold digger, baby. You're my favorite bank," May Tape jumped on the bed.
Harvard had to admit her honesty really surprised him. He took a quick look at her in her tight orange burgundy dress, and her leather shoes. He'd bought those for her at a black market he robbed blind. Stopping at her brunette hair, he peered at her almost transparent skin and took a deep breath.
'She's forgetting I'm here again,'
Harvard opened up her stat window."
[May Tape]
[Level 28]
[Reputation: In Love]
[Thinking about Harvard]
[System extra information available: Currently being initiated into a dangerous Guild!]
'Dangerous Guild. Is she in love with the leader of that guild?' Harvard thought and looked at her beautiful body up and down. He noticed a few cuts on her legs. Did they do something to her already?
"I-I'm thinking about you," May smiled. "Those two beds are awfully far away. Since you bought me this necklace. I never stop smiling! However, I also have to go away tomorrow to a dangerous place. This is your last night to see me for a while?"
"What do you mean, dangerous place? Does it have to do with that guild?" Harvard had the information from the system, so why not use it right? "Tell me everything!"
"I can't. Nice guess, though," May pushed the two beds together. It was a Supreme Bed tonight with 1000 Durability. "Now, can you at least tell me you'll miss me? You bought me so many presents, took me on dates! Damn it! I want the truth! Do you like me!"
"May… of course, I wake up early every day to watch you dress… I take a bath sometimes in your water because you smell good, and I sometimes beat up children that toss children at you. I'm a fan."
"Oh hoh, than let's turn off the lights. We might need a fan!"
