"Alright, now the marbles…" Luna murmured while sitting cross-legged on the carpeted floor. In front of her was a small table inscribed with a pentagram.
Isaac placed five marbles on the desk, surrounding the pentagram. Then, he sat down and looked at his girlfriend.
Luna snapped her fingers, and a silver-inlaid wand appeared out of thin air. She then pointed it at the drawing of the pentagram and closed her eyes.
"Hecate's Magic, The Seven Circular, Clairvoyance Magic!" The wand's tip shone radiantly, and the five marbles began shining with the same intensity.
The pentagram slowly began fading away, and a small map appeared from there.
Isaac leaned closer and recognized the map as Winterland's. He recognized Starshow's country outline, and then neighbor county suddenly began glowing red.
A small red cross appeared in the shining country, and two words emerged with black ink.
"Country is Laughshow… and City is called Happylaugh…" Surprisingly, the Country was the neighboring country of Starshow.
Luna's eyes opened, and she said, "Next attack will happen in 10 days."
"I see, thanks." Isaac did a quick peck on her cheek, causing Luna to giggle softly. She smiled brightly and saw her boyfriend taking out his laptop.
"What are you doing?" She leaned closer while asking.
"Ordering plane tickets," Isaac said nonchalantly.
"W-What?!"
"Yes, I am going there," Isaac said while double-clicking on the website. He quickly ordered two tickets before Luna could say another word.
"B-But…" Luna's heart pounded in anxiousness, "W-What about me?"
"What about you?" Isaac raised his eyebrow.
"A-Are you going to leave me here?" She asked with teary eyes.
"Oh, I ordered you a ticket too." Isaac spun the laptop around and showed that he had ordered two tickets, "You can treat this trip as…"
Luna looked at him with teary eyes, looking pitiful and adorable, "Treat this trip as..?"
"Early honeymoon!" Isaac landed a kiss on her forehead and closed the laptop before returning it to his desk.
Luna held her forehead with cheeks dyed in pink, "Honeymoon… hehe…"
"The plane will leave in 3 days, so until then, I have something to do in White Online." Isaac went to fetch his Mythical VR Helmet from the wardrobe and then returned to his bed.
Luna sprung to her feet and took her Mythical VR Helmet from the same wardrobe. She was the owner of two Mythical VR Helmets, one she kept in Isaac's room and another in her own room back in Snowflower Residence.
That way, she could play from anywhere. Still, her favorite place was in Whitelock Residence because while playing—she was usually lying next to Isaac, sharing the bodily heat which she could feel even inside the game.
She lay beside Isaac briskly and moved closer until their arms touched. Then, they both put VR Helmets around their heads.
Luna turned her head and planted a kiss on Isaac's cheek. Before he could react, she entered the game with one final giggle.
Isaac wryly smiled and entered the game.
…
Snowflakes floated from the ice-blue sky and landed on the snowy streets. It was the one rare day in the White Online calendar when it snowed. It was Christmas day, and the gentle angel lullaby echoed across the realms.
The citizens of each city spent their time with their family members and friends. The streets got crowded with excited-looking citizens, and one street was especially busy.
Everyone happily enjoyed their time while waiting for one store to open its doors. It consisted of three separate buildings.
The sign said "Bookstore of Myriad", and its doors were closed so far. The interior was dark, and hundreds of citizens were anxiously waiting for the doors to open.
Then, a soft glow appeared on the second floor.
Isaac and Luna appeared in the soft bed. The room they spawned in was enormous, with carpeted floor and chandeliers hanging from the ceiling with yellow crystals.
The room gave a cozy and warm feeling.
"Mmmh…" Luna rolled in the bed and moved the blankets over to cover her figure, "So comfy…"
"We have to open the store." Isaac leaned closer and whispered.
"Don't wanna… It's so warm…" She snuggled into the blankets with a blissful smile.
"Oh, don't wanna?" Isaac's hand touched her soft butt and gently squeezed, "Don't wanna?"
"Kyaa, my butt!" Luna blushed and took off his hand, "D-Dummy…"
"Don't wanna?" Isaac playfully smiled, and Luna's soft punch landed on his shoulder. After being done playing around, they left the room and walked down the luxurious hallway.
The store looked vastly different than a year ago. The second floor looked like a small mansion, while the store was three times bigger than a year ago.
That was because he bought the neighbor stores and connected them all. Thus, making the store much larger and it gave a lot more space.
After walking down the stairs, they saw the crowd waiting outside the doors.
Isaac scratched his head and walked toward the counter. He got seated on the soft chair with fur cushions and watched as Luna walked to the door.
As she opened the door, her bright smile almost blinded the crowd, and they immediately realized who she was.
"Lady Night." They bowed respectfully toward Luna while using her in-game nickname, Night.
"Welcome!" Luna let everyone enter and briskly walked towards the counter. She sat next to Isaac and waited for the customers to arrive with their books.
The customers respectfully looked at Isaac and went straight to the bookshelves. There were easily over hundred bookshelves with close to ten thousand books. Surprisingly, half of them were his own creations.
The customers swarmed around his books, finding suitable books for them.
Nine months ago, Isaac realized his Novelist Sub-class' real strength. He had the ability to make the NPCs and Players stronger with his books.
However, only one genre was suitable for a person. Thus, they had to find a suitable genre for themselves. It was quite difficult because they had to read the whole book several times to be sure that the genre was wrong.
That was one of the reasons for his immense success.
It worked similarly like to Bella's cooking. They had to read his books and learn the things the book showed. Like, a Martial Arts Book, there were real techniques written, and if the person with a suitable genre read those techniques, they could learn them. However, it was difficult because they had to learn them themselves.
They need to read carefully and learn the core of those techniques. However, it appealed to many because some of those techniques were legendary!
