Finally, you arrived at sixth street in New Eridu. It was.. quite lively, honestly. And loud. But hey, cities have always been loud, right?

Anyway, what was more important right now was your mission. You had hired the Proxy, or rather.. proxies? Known as "Phaethon" from the inter-knot, having heard of their extremely high commission success rate.

This mission you have in the hollows is very important, there was no room for failure. Exactly why you hired the best proxies you could get your hands on.. even though it was very pricey.

You walked around, looking at the map you had on your phone. According to their directions, Random Play should be around..

Here. Right in front of you.

You looked up from your phone, noticing the building with the sign that says "Random Play".

This.. should be the place, right? So, you entered the store.

....

Upon entering, you could hear the bell to the door ring, a sign of your entrance. But what really caught your attention the most was the bangboo that greeted you at the counter with a wave.. and also a few other bangboos in the store.

They were all adorable for sure, but were these bangboos the only workers here or something? You couldn't find anyone at all, the store seemed to only have these bangboos..

You went over to the bangboo at the counter, intending to ask if the store owners were here. But just before you got to speak, the door that was labeled "Staff only" clicked open.

You saw two people inside. The first one being a young woman with blue hair who sat on the couch inside of the room with her back faced towards you, seemingly watching something on the tv inside of the room, while the other was a young man who was making his way over to you.

"Hello. Welcome to Random Play, Sixth Street's greatest video store.. Were you looking for something to watch?"

He greeted with an easy smile, studying you curiously.
