Gazing at the wall of text, Drew requested Onyx to organize it.

'Apply the exp boost to Marksmanship. I have a gut feeling that I'm going to need a gun soon.

[...]

[Done. It's close to reaching level two.]

'Open my Perk options.'

A pillar of text materialized in front of him and as he skimmed over, he noticed one that caught his eye.

'Give me the Gacha Perk.'

[Oh no. Why would you pick that?]

'What's wrong with it? It's a perk that allows me to do a Gacha spin where I can get a Skill, Weapons, Armor, etc per one thousand Grimm points. Plus, the first one is free. What's so bad about it?'

[You know what? I'll let you experience it first.]

'Okay? Well while you're at it, do the Gacha please.'

[Activating Gacha spin...]

[Spinning...]

[They see me rollin. They hatin.]

[Spinning...]

[You spin me right 'round, baby]

'Stop it.'

[Ugh. Fine. So boring.]

[Landed on...Victory? Congrats?]

A pistol with a very unusual appearance was now in his right hand. (A/N: It looks like Duel Divine from Devil Eater if you played that game.) At first glance, the word divine comes to mind due to how holy it looks. When he tried shooting, it clicked. Checking the magazine, Drew realized that there were no bullets.

[Want a hint?]

'For?'

[Your gun.]

'For free?'

[Sure why not. I won't bother you...this time. The hint is Aura.]

'Which I don't have at the moment. Thanks for being so extraordinarily helpful.'

[You're welcome.]

Drew could almost imagine the smug smile from the words. Dropping the gun in his inventory, he continued walking to his destination.

'Whatever. I memorized the school, its facilities, and rooms. It's only one o'clock. What do you think I should do after lunch?'

[*Turns to the left*]

[*Turns to the right*]

[*Checks above and below*]

[*Do a whole 360 to check the area*]

[You talking to me?]

'Yep. Thanks for reminding me of how much of a mistake it is to ask you something.'

[I'm kidding. Chill boss. And since you want plans from yours truly, I got you.]

'I'm getting that bad feeling again.'

[Whatever could you be talking about?]

'Oh, I don't know. I kissed probably the most powerful huntress in Vale for your quests?'

[Hey. I wanted unexpectedness. I didn't mean that unexpected.]

'And that one time you-'

[Mission: Lunch!]

[It's time to eat and your stomach agrees with me. Have a satisfying meal. This is by no means is an attempt to distract you from exposing me. No sirree.]

[Bonus Objective 1: Eat by yourself.]

[Bonus Objective 2: Eat with others.]

[Rewards: Small Exp.]

[Bonus Objective 1: Sword Skill(Low)]

[Bonus Objective 2: Title]

[Accept (Y/N)]

[Tadaaaa. Eh? Ehh? Ehhhhh?]

'Yes. It is great. Thank you for the quest, Onyx. Can we get a move on?' He held his stomach. 'I'm starving.'

[Mission Accepted. Good luck User.]

[Let's a go!]

Drew's trip to the cafeteria from where he was a quiet one. When he arrived in line, his invisibility was turned off, thus letting everyone gossip and whisper about the ballsy new kid.

'You think Mario ever got laid?'

[That's random. Where did this question come from?]

'You said, "Let's a go!" and my mind went to Mario and inadvertently, I ended up with this insight.'

[Interesting. As for the answer, maybe? No man has that level of dedication for a woman unless they love each other so Peach probably fucked his brains out after each save. At one point, I was convinced that Mario was paying Bowser to do evil things so that he can have a better reputation once he beats up the big bad, resulting in more night time sessions with the princess. Hold on. Now that we're on this topic. How did Bowser Jr. come to be? Surely there wasn't a female bowser that we were not aware of? Right?]

'That's...a good question. Who is the mother?'

[Since Bowser is a monster turtle, you think he moans like a normal one? *Inhale* Eh! *Inhale* Eh! *Inhale* Eh!]

'And now I'm traumatized for life. Thanks for the mental imagery.'

[You're freaking welcome boss.]

Eating by himself wasn't hard, Drew concluded as everyone was more or less preferred to stay away from the dead man. Quickly finishing the meal before anyone sat by him, he threw away his trash and set down the plate in the place where it was supposed to go, unlike other inconsiderate individuals. Under everyone's eye, Drew disappeared from their view.

[Rewards]

[Small Exp.]

[Skill(Sword Slash Wave: A swing of the blade creates a crescent-shaped energy attack.)]

'Save the experience this time and give me a second to second to process this.' The excitement in his voice wasn't hidden. 'I have my own Getsuga?'

[Sort of? It's more like a nerfed version of it. Getsuage Tenshou isn't just releasing a crescent-shaped beam attack. It condenses the energy first, magnifying it's damaging prowess first. Yours don't do that.]

'Can I rename it to Getsuga Tenshou still?' His childhood dream was so close! 'I'm a big fan of Bleach.'

[Yeah. I can arrange that. I gotta say, boss. This much hype over an anime attack? What happened to ridding oneself of the child within?]

'Anime is for all ages. Not only for children.'

[Believe what you want.]

[Mission: Preparation.]

[It never hurts to be extra prepared for the future. Especially considering you have one powerful Huntress on a warpath to find you. Your luck can save you only so many times. Make progress on something whether it is your skills or an attribute boost.]

[Bonus Objective 1: Level 6 Running.]

[Bonus Objective 2: All physical attributes reach Peak Human.]

[Bonus Objective 3: Hyperspeed Level 3.]

[Hidden Objective: ???]

[Rewards: Small Exp.]

[Bonus Objective 1: Large Exp.]

[Bonus Objective 2: Dragon Slayer]

[Bonus Objective 3: Random Skill(Low)]

[Hidden Objective: ???]

'Oh ho? Challenge accepted. What's the time limit?'

[Before Initiation.]

'Plenty of time.'

Expanding the Gamer map, running north was the way to go as it would take him directly to the Forever Fall. There was a suspicious amount of red on the map and that piqued his curiosity as red was his favorite. He read that it was a forest. Maybe it was a forest full of red fruit?

And then came the moment of truth.

Forever Fall can be described by one word; red. The sheer abundance of this color elated him. In his mind, plans were rapidly being produced on how to settle here. Though on a closer look, the forest was weird. It was as if somebody was bleeding the leaves or, on a more positive theory, a tsunami of red dye hit this place, resulting in a product he was mesmerized by.

Regardless, this was home from here on out.

[Meh. A little too red for my liking.]

'Don't care.'

Jumping from tree to tree, he commenced a very bastardized version of spring cleaning which consisted of genociding any nasty creatures that resided in his future home.
