Energized after a good night of sleep you decide to continue your adventure as soon as possible, so you hop on your bike and go VROOM away all the way, ignoring any sort of speed limits or good decision making, rushing to the workshop full of purpose once again!
Why even stop now? Come on, it's a new day, and you run into Eri's Workshop, SLAMMING the 20000LB$ down on the desk before he can even say hello. We're doing speedrun strats here.
<span class="mu-i">"HeyEriNoTimeGimmeTheLanceYouKnowWhatI'llGetItMyselfKThanks!"</span>
He... Is rather embarrassed by it, but you run in and pick it up, the silvery finish and the lights on the edges, you can hold much more power with this one...! And the design...?
<span class="mu-i">"This is just like the lance from Shoujo-UX No MahouKnight!!! I shall call it... <span class="mu-s">Icepick Ultimax!</span>"</span>
Well, be glad nobody heard that.
Running past Eri you hop back on your bike and drive away...
As he looks off into the distance, he probably hoped for more... Picking up a burner phone from his pocket and heading back inside, he whispers to some unknown individual...
<span class="mu-i">"Red-7. Guinea Pig's in the game, over."</span>...Once far away, you find the ATM at which to deposit the fee for the next ranked battle.. This is way less exciting, no need for me to draw it. The transfer is exactly 25000 LB$, as specified. You put in all the info and whatnot, and send the cash to the UAA...
<span class="mu-g">(New total: 16400 LB$)</span>
Now... All that's left is to wait.
Not for long though. After a couple minutes you get the anticipated call:
"Helloooo, Lynn?" Arthur says in a teasing tone. You reply in the most charming way possible. "Yeah, it's my phone, who else could it be? Is this about the next fight?"
"Well I'm at a birthday party right now, but yes!" He merely chuckles, and before you ask, yes, he was at a birthday party. A pretty weird one too. Shame you can't see things through phone calls. "Let me check my notepad... Ah, yes, here. Number 7 on the ranks... Oh, this is a scary one. She is extremely deadly and unhinged. Gonna have to be careful, Lynn... A real live wire, this girl... Still, next fight is not gonna be at the fanciest place, you know the local bar known as... Uh..." He pauses a second. <span class="mu-i">"Tit-E-Ripper's?"</span> What kind of name is that, anyway? He feels stupid saying it. "Well, have you heard of it? She's gonna be doing a show there. 1 AM tomorrow. You'll have to crash her party and steal the night!"
"...Not this one party here I'm at right now. Oh, shit! Clowns just arrived! Gotta go!" And he hung up.
...What was that about?
