Lona the maid?

How did this happen?

"Hey cutie, want to party up with me?"

"Oh my gosh! You're so cute!"

"Look here, say cheese!"

Ugh! Why didn't I think this through! But I mean... it's not like I have any other option

Hey lona here, being surrounded by a lot of people. Well... it is kind of my fault.

But It all started when I logged into the game."

I was lying down on my bed with my headset on me

"Dive" I closed my eyes.

Before long, a large blue coloured text shown up

Welcome to New Fantasy Online!

Enter I close

Eh, I've seen it too many times to care at this point. I pressed enter and closed my eyes again but when I opened them, I wasn't at the forest i logged off at yesterday. Instead I was in a bright blue room with what looked like circuitry lining the walls. A looked around and saw an NPC in what looked like a receptionist uniform like you see in hotels. She had blond hair and green eyes.

"Hello there ummm. An NPC? The hell is this place.

"Congratulations for being selected as one of our winners. Your account was made exactly from the launch which was 4 years ago exactly! And thanks to your contribution to the game, you will be rewarded with your very own (one in one) rarity item!"

"Huh? HUH!?! W-w-what did you say?"

"Congratulations-"

"No no no, the last sentence"

"And thanks to your contribution to the game, you will be rewarded with your very own (one in five) rarity item!"

"For real?"

"Indeed, this is to show our gratitude for supporting the game as much as you already have."

"Our gratitude? You mean the mods?"

"Yes, more commonly known as administrator. We thank you for your support. Oh and by the way, I'm not an NPC. I am the lead developer Chiyo"

"Oh, wait really!?! You mean Chiyo, the actual Chiyo!?"

"Yes! That's me! It is pretty funny though, seeing my favourite player fangirling for me, hehe"

"I'm your favourite? Really!?"

"Or course why wouldn't you be? you know, I was the one that made and developed the assassin class, and you were the only one able to use it to its fullest potential!"

"I mean, the assassin class is really hard"

"That's funny coming from the best assassin in the whole of NFO"

"I mean, you were the one who designed it that way"

"Yes, but anyways before we get too sidetracked, here" Chiyo handed me two gifts.

"Two gifts?"

"The smaller gift is from the entire dev team and includes the (one of five) rarity item. as for the second one...

"Hmm?"

"I'll tell you after you open it"

"Ok then"

i took the gifts from Chiyo and opened the smaller gift first"

The pendent of the chosen one (one of five)

"A Orichalcum pendant given to the ones that the gods choose. Each god bestow it parts of their powers"

Base stat increase (scales of current level)

Exponential growth (double skill Exp and Exp)

"Ummmm..."

"What is it?"

"No offence but, it's kind of useless to me. Aside from the stat boost, i can't make any use of it"

"Oh! That's right!, ugh. How did I forget that you were max level!"

"I mean there are only like 7 people who have reached 1000 right?

"Yes, but two of them are dev accounts and the rest are the others who will receive the same gift as you, so in other words..."

"It's just useless for everyone you are giving it to?"

"Y-yes. Ugh! how did I, Chiyo, the lead developer, forget something like this!"

"A-A-Anyways, let's move on to the second gift!"

"O-okay" she was practically tearing up at this point, she handed me the second gift. I took it and it was surprisingly light, lighter than even the pendent. I carefully did the bow and took off the top of the box but what I saw next was horrifying.

Hello there lona! It's your favourite dev Haruto! I'm so glad that you are one of the chosen players for the anniversary event! Here is an extra present from yours truly

Love Haruto

my gag reflex actually activated from that.

It was a letter from the lead game designer and head honcho of NFO, Haruto. And a very open fan of mine but not the good kind. He is the type of fan who stalks your every living and breathing moment. Worst part, HE IS THE CEO OF THE COMPANY THAT RUNS NFO! I can't do shit about him, most of the admins know that I hate the living shit out of him.

I look up back at Chiyo, glaring daggers as i stared right into her soul

"U-um, s-sorry about Haruto" she bowed down " I-I know you hate him, but please at least see the present! I don't want to lose my job!"

"He's that bad!?! At Least report him to the police!"

'I'd love to, but that will also put me out of a job so that plan is out. Anyways, he is not a bad person... it's just that he has a particular interest in you.

"Yeah right," I rolled my eyes "well, I guess I'll see what this gift is"

Lona's Maid outfit (one of one) (untradeable)

"Bet you would look good in this" (Haruto)

Average stats : its literary the best

Def : nearly impenetrable

Durability : nearly unbreakable

Major stat boost (scales of exp)

Feather light (does not affect agility stat)

Nice and tidy (never gets dirty, automatically repairs it self)

Head maid (allows the wearer to act like a proper maid)

"WHAT THE F**K!" I shouted

"It's a maid outfit?" Chiyo said

"L-l-l-look at the stats!" I quickly swiped the stats page of the maid outfit towards Chiyo

"Huh!?!"

"THOSE STATS AREN'T EVEN NUMBERS, HOW DOES THAT WORK!?!?!"

"You're right... hmmm, if it's letters and not numbers how will the system recognize it."

"Yeah!, how! Aren't you the lead dev!?"

"C-calm down! Not even I know. That dam Haruto"

"Even the lead dev doesn't know!"

"Since it's Haruto we're talking about, maybe the stats just mean what they mean?"

"You're willing to say that Haruto made an item so overpowered that it could destroy the game if a top player like me had it, heck! Even a low level player can be one of the best with those stats. just to convince me to wear a maid outfit!?!"

"That's Haruto for you." she face palmed her self

Well sorry to say but it's working.

I f**king hate myself, i really want to just throw it away but that inner child gamer in me wants to try out something this overpowered. Just imagine the possibility of one of the most light classes being able to essentially out tank a tank class! The amount of people that will call me a hacker will increase 10 fold! I'm practically in ecstasy just thinking about it. I love playing the villain!

"Ugh!! Curse you Haruto!" I shouted

Chiyo looks at me and nods her head.

"I really want to punch him in the face!" I said

"Me too!" she agreed

We ranted about Haruto for a long time

I sigh, I calmed down a bit after ranting about Haruto for a while, luckily Chiyo shares the same opinion as me so we were able to bond over our shared hatred of Haruto.

"He really did that!?" Chiyo asked

"Yeah! I know right, that bastard"

"You know, I think we should talk like this more outside of events. I never really spoke to you before but now I want to add you?"

"Huh?"

"That a no?

"No no no, I mean YES PLEASE! I'm a big fan of yours so why would I refuse?"

"Stop it, you make me embarrassed. I'm also a fan of you, you know!"

"It's weird that we are fans of each other but never actually spoke with one another."

"Yeah, anyways I'll send you the friend request"

After she said that a notification appeared on my hud, I clicked on it and pressed accept,

You are now friends with Chiyo!

But out of the corner of my eye, i just so happened to see the clock"

8,23 pm

"SH*T, IT'S ALREADY 8,30!"

"Huh? Oh right, the auction. It's at 9,30 right?"

"You don't understand! There are two types of players, the ones that like me and the ones that hate me! And both will try to approach me at the auction, and that is the last thing I want!"

"Oh right, with you being the world champion and all"

"Recently, there are more people accusing me of cheating thanks to the finals of the tournament."

"Yeah, even us the devs can't help clear out your name and trust me, we tried"

"Yeah, I've seen the announcements, thanks by the way"

"Don't mention it."

"Anyways, it's probably better if I go now, I might still be able to sneak into the auction place"

"Yeah, good luck with that! There are probably already thousands of people waiting there"

"Fufu, that's not helping, well see you soon I guess"

"Yeah!"

I turned around and started walking but then I realised something. How do I get out of here?

I turned back around and asked

"Soo, how do I get out of here?"

"Oh, that's right! Silly me, I'm going to teleport you to your last log out spot"

"Can't you just teleport me to the auction place instantly?" but just as I said that I blinked and I was suddenly back in the forest I logged off in.

"ughhh!, couldn't she at least waited till I finished!"
