~~~(POV: Hailey Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Main Road to Capital City Rosalia, The Fallen Kingdom of Rosalia)~~~

~~~(Time: 5:30 AM)~~~

The warmth of my tent is making it hard to wake up. It's always difficult to get up when you're actually comfortable. I look at the time on my Player HUD, and I cringe as I see the time. "There is no reason to get up this early... I don't want to get up this early!" I can't help throwing a little fit, but I promised myself that I'd start moving towards Rosalia before 6:00 AM.

I'm wishing that I could fly more and more... Imagine how easy it would be to get to places... But it's pretty much needed that I walk... I'm gaining levels for when I face the Raid on Capital City Rosalia. "Time to stop whining about it..." I shove the blankets off me and take a minute to clean all the gunk out of my eyes. I lean up and stretch my body.

The road I'm taking is heading straight for the Capital City, and using my speed. It shouldn't take me long to get to the next city from here. There should be one more city before I reach the Capital from here. And I'm not looking forward to the long and drawn-out fights that I have ahead of me. My Class and gear have been my saving grace.

Why the tier-up quests scale with your current power instead of being the level you should've been makes this far more difficult and brings home the idea that doing it as soon as you can is smarter than anything else. "I really got distracted by things there for a while, and now I'm paying the consequences for it." I don't regret helping my friends and family.

But I should've taken some time to myself to catch up on the tier-up quests that I have. I exit the tent and quickly pack everything up and place it in my Player Inventory. I look down the road, and my HUD is showing the marker in the direction I'm facing. A lot of features have returned ever since Greshina, and all of them are incredibly useful.

All the NPCs that have turned into Players must be astounded by how much easier Players had it than them. As I'm running full speed down the path. I get a message from Jasmine. I open it up as I'm running and start to read. From the sounds of it, things are going good on her end, and before I can write a reply, another message comes in from mom.

[Hope you're doing okay, honey. I miss you, and I'm looking forward to seeing all of you again. It's been hard doing all this on my own, and there are things that I wish we could talk about in person. Please get back to me soon. I'd love to hear how things are going for you. You have the hardest quest at the moment and are alone.]

It's great to hear from mom, and I start to write back. I send her a message tellings her how I'm doing and encouraging her to keep it up all on her own. "She should probably reach out to dad too..." I send her another message telling her that it'd probably be a good idea to contact dad. He's missing her for sure. And she takes my advice.

I didn't expect to get hammered with so many messages so early in the morning, but it's not like that's a bad thing. I'd be annoyed if I was still asleep, but I'm already moving. The trees are passing in a blur, and I'm positive there is no Player or NPCs that can keep up with my speed. It sucks the monster and enemies I'm facing scale with me.

It's become extremely annoying to fight against such creatures, but that it's all EXP for my levels and skills in the end. "I wonder how much progress Cera has made so far... He'll be completing his tier-up quests faster than the rest of us because he can travel fast..." His quests won't be easy, but he's the best Player out of all of us.

Not to mention how Sally is doing, and Marcus is probably having a blast all on his own now. Not having to be babied by mom anymore. "I feel like I'm the only one that's complaining about my quest..." I can't help the words from leaving my mouth. Does that make me lazy? Pessimistic maybe? I don't know. All I do know is I'm not that big a fan of my tier-up quest.

~~~(POV: Saliandra Orvello)~~~

~~~(Location: Sleeping in a room at an Inn located within Abble, Outside The Kingdom of Avalon)~~~

~~~(Time: 5:51 AM)~~~

My head spins with a headache, and I try my hardest to open my eyes. My allergies are really acting up, and I don't want to get up. But last night has refilled my energy levels for my tier-up quest. Cera and I spent a couple of hours talking to each other through the messaging, and just having that has helped clear my head. But not my allergies are clogging it up again.

Cera is probably awake by now, too, and I shouldn't fall behind on progress for my tier-up quest. There are still plenty he has to do, and I have another one after this one. But being able to talk to him and stay connected to him is helping me far more than I thought it would. "Time to get up, lazy ass..." I mumble to myself slowly and lift my throbbing head.

I do my best to stop stumbling to the bathroom, and as I reach it, I turn on the faucet and start to clean my face. Getting all the crap out of my eyes. I'm awake and ready to go after some of that cold water on my face. I look towards the bathtub, and I don't see any reason to avoid getting a bit cleaner before leaving to get dirty.

As a girl, I prefer to be clean and smell good as opposed to smelling bad. I turn on the hot water, and the magical water pours into the bathtub, and I hop right in. No need to take off my clothes since I sleep nude. It's a habit that I've picked up while with Cera. Before, I always slept with my clothes on out of fear.

Now I don't feel that fear, and I'm comfortable being naked while I sleep. The magical water soaks into my body, and I let out a long relaxed moan. It's not every day that I get a chance to soak in a bathtub, and it's not every day that I get a chance to be clean. "I wish you were here with me, Cera... You'd love this..." I'm positive he'd love to share this with me...

~~~(Location: Main Road to Capital City Rosalia, The Fallen Kingdom of Rosalia)~~~

~~~(Time: 6:13 AM)~~~

The next city I'm going through comes into view as I keep up the high speed. I do wonder what happened to The Fallen Kingdom of Rosalia. I can't help wondering what happened here to turn it into a home for powerful monsters and a Raid. Cera is as curious as I am. I know he is. Given his knowledge of the future, he probably knows a lot about this place.

I close in on the entrance to the walled-off city, and I slow down. I don't want to alert any monsters of my presence. I'd prefer to take as many as I can out quietly, and that's a real challenge.

A/N: Below this line, I'll be keeping Cera's player information. That way, I won't have to place it into the story above anymore. It takes about 180 words up.
