  "Report, there is a holloearing oh street. We need reinforts"

  An officer reports to his higher-up.

  "Receive. Evacuate civilians first, wait for the professional ter"

  A powerful anding voice replies from the PubSec radio.

  At this moment, a tall girl with long red hair approaches the officer wearing an anti-hollow outfit. Her graceful figure is hidden behind a casual set of clothes. Her temperament shows that she isn't an ordinary woman you find in New Eridu.

  "Excuse me, sir, maybe I help you"

  The girl expresses her attitude.

  "Eh?"

  The officer is surprised and caught off guard by the girl in front of him. No, actually, the ID card on the girl's hand is the real reason.

  "Kamiyama..."

  "...Yuri-san"

  "Ah, Kamiyama Yuri-san, I didn't expeeet you here. With your existehe rescue will go well"

  "We will trouble you even though you're on your vacation"

  The officer ftters.

  "Um...That's my duty..."

  Yuri boolitely says. In fact, her heart is bleeding a little. Even if you ehe game world, you 't escape from the fate of being exploited by the capitalists. That's right, Yuri has realized this world is the game world from a memory of a boy somewhere pying this weeb game, where the selling point is 'Thicbsp;

  About that boy's life...She didn't have any ideas as her past had already been blurry.

  "Wait for a minute, I'll report to my boss that the pride of our New Eridu supports us"

  The officer excitedly does his work, ign the helpless face of Yuri.

  "What? Yuri-sama is also there. Here's my order. Support her at all costs"

  The loud voice be heard from behind but Yuri doesn't mind.

  ---

  "Yuri-sama..."

  A nervous officer hesitates...

  "Shhh!!!! Don't trouble her. She's calg the Hollow and creating 'Carrot' for us"

  The officer covers his subordinate's mouth.

  Yuri right now is extremely focused on the Hollow in front of her eyes. Her sky-like pupils glow a faint light of purple. Every ethereal wave and energy enters her brain like a flood. Every path and every er reveals its true self as her hands work nonstop.

  The code and algorithm are all smoothly run oop.

  "Done"

  "Let's rescue the civilian who has been stuside the Hollow"

  Yuri takes out the chips and distributes them to these officers. The so-called 'carrot', human's st hope when fag the apocalypse Hollow, is the only tool for humans to live together with it.

  "Yes, Madam"

  The officers excitedly yell.

  Inside Hollow at the 6th street...

  "Don't worry, Oujo-. There will be someone helping us out"

  A young girl forts the little girl.

  "We've found awo civilians. A teenage girl and a little girl"

  The officer reports.

  "As expected from Yuri-sama, the rescue goes smoothly"

  A nervous officer speaks.

  At the moment, a young girl feels something strange and yells.

  "Officers, be careful"

  Just as she warns, ahereal es out of nowhere ambushing from behind.

  It roars loudly but...Before it has a ce to attack, a gun sound explodes in the building. Strangely, it doesn't get hot but cold...

  The officers turn bad find a ferocious Ethereal frozen in an Ice sculpture.

  "Officers, are you okay?"

  Yuri asks worriedly.

  "Okay, thanks to Yuri-sama..."

  "Phew"

  Yuri sighs of relief.

  "Are you two okay?"

  Yuri turns to the civilian's side and asks.

  "Eh? Manager Belle!!"

  Now, it's Yuri's turn to be stunned.

  "Ah, hehehe, hello, Yuri-san"

  Belle awkwardly smiles.

  "Belle-san, what a ce....or not"

  Yuri hesitates...

  "I inteo return the videotape before it expired"

  "Then, a holloeared oh street...and Manager got caught in this...I don't know if it's lucky or not"

  Yuri shrugs.

  "Hahaha, at least, we're alive, aren't we? We still have the best Hollow iigator, who is a rival to Phaethht? Proxy of the Light"

  Belle smiles heartily. There is a hint of petition in it but Yuri ig because she has to act like she doesn't know anything.

  "Manager, don't tease me...."

  Yuri awkwardly waves her hand. Yet, Belle realizes this tall red-haired girl doesn't seem to like this niame. 'Did I step into a ndmine'. Belle thought.

  "It's a relief. When I saw Manager-san, my heart went plicated"

  Yuri sighs.

  "Eh?"

  "What's wrong?"

  Belle titles her head and ponders.

  "I mean...I admire your talent as an iigator in the Hollow 0, easily proteg the little girl over there, but you don't have ahereal Adaptation..."

  Yuri holds her cheek.

  "Oujo-, the test result came out. Ethereal on your body has pletely dissipated, you go home now"

  The medical staff chimes in.

  "Yuri-sama, thanks for your help this time, let us hahe paperwork"

  The officer's lip plumps into a smile.

  "Okay, I'll take Belle-san home"

  Yuri nods.

  "Belle, I'm gd you're safe"

  A tall man with gray hair says trembly, but his voice soon bees stable.

  "You don't knoorried I am"

  He immediately checks his sister to make sure that she doesn't get hurt or anything.

  "Eh, hem... Manager Wise. I know you care about your sister very much, but you notice I'm still here?"

  Yuri coughs, reminding Wise that she's still there.

  "Sorry, sorry, when I heard the Holloearing suddenly on 6th street, my mind couldn't be calm until I saw her safe and sound"

  Wise scratches his head but his smile never goes off.

  "Besides, it's our luck that today is the expiration date of your videotape. Otherwise, I don't know where to find someoo rescue my sister"

  Wise smiles helplessly.

  "Yeah, yeah, yeah, this hollow ruined my day off~"

  Yuri loses her energy when thinking of getting up early tomorrow and going to work.'Damn, capitalist'. She curses in her mind.

  "Anywise, Manager Brotherhood, here is the videotape 'The truth is only one'"

  "Here is the cash"

  Yuri hands over her stuff. As for pretending to be like some protagonists ag like bigshots with their fanfi characters, it will be better for her to live a normal life. Fighting the Hollow, unc spiracies hidden in New Eridu, or ag mighty to capture characters aren't her stuff but the Capitalists say no to her talents.

  Or should she say that her cheating ability doesn't allow her to live a normal life? This golden finger is quite powerful, parable to the H.D.D system of the siblings standing in front of her. Ign her loss 15 years before realizing this world is a game, this kind of ability doesn't sound like a good thing. Synizing yourself with the Hollow to create 'Carrot' and act like a proxy...

  This is also a reason she was called the 'Proxy of Light'. Because of the outstandience of Phaethon, the H.I.A and the H.A.N.D didn't have any face when fag the promialents of the Hollow Raider and Unknown Proxies such as Phaethon. It just happened when they discovered her cheating ability. Of course, they had to raise her reputation to the rgest and tallest that was rival Phaethon so that they could save face.

  Maybe she was some experiment subject, a white rat from an audacious anization acc to the style of MiHoyo. Or, she erson in an anization opposing the siblings. After tless possibilities, she decided to hug the thighs of the protagonists of this world. Being close to them; at least, her survival probability is beyond 0%.

  At this moment, Belle uses her elbow to signal Wise. The brother and sister look at each other and uand their iion.

  "Yuri-san, you're our Random Py Store membership"

  "Even saved my sister in the Hollow. How about...we treat you to a meal?"

  "As a paybao?"

  Wise suggests.

  "That's right, Yuri-san. Today, our siblings just came back to get a box of New Videotapes so we didn't really have anything to eat"

  "We io eat outside today"

  Belle adds.

  "Okay...You're quite ing, Belle-san...Giving sweet and PRing your new videotapes. Your as aren't different from my boss when she is stantly drawing a cake"

  Yuri pins.

  "Ah ha ha ha ha~"

  Belle and Wise smirk...

  "Hehe~, who expect that the 'Proxy of Light' to have such a dream? W hard to earn a huge of mohen being a ...I wonder if H.I.A and H.A.N.D will let you retire peacefully"

  Belle speaks.

  "Anyway, I have you, don't I?"

  Yuri winks, regaining her smile that has been corrupted by capitalists.

  "Don't ever think about that, I tell you!"

  "I'm just a small iigator w part-time at Hollow 0"

  "Don't traio be your successor!"

  Belle retorts.

  Yuri is quite amused at Belle's ag. Perhaps, she should follow Yao iertai path.

  "Hahaha, don't worry. I won't force others if they don't like it. Speaking of which, the Interknot at of Phaethon has disappeared mysteriously. Damn...I'm jealous of the person hiding behind that at"

  Yuri expresses her irritation. Speaking of ag, she isn't worse than the sibling actors.

  "Eh? You're jealous of Phaethon?"

  Wise shows a surprised face.

  "Yeah"

  "Even though that person is quite good and talented, deleting the at meairing"

  "My supposed-to-be Rival has retired before me. What a waste of talent!"

  Yuri nods.

  "So, that's your point heh~"

  Belle murmurs and smiles gely.

  After a while, Yuri, Belle, and Wise arrive at the Ramen shop.

  "General Chop, One Fresh Ioodles, please"

  Yuri follows the siblings and orders her meal.

  "Aiyo, wait a minute"

  General iles and explodes his meical arms to cook.

  "2 Bone Broth Noodle, please"

  "Receive"

  "Ah I'm so full"

  "Thanks for the meal"

  Yuri rubs her bulge stoma satisfa. However, Belle doesn't think so. This woman acts as if she is pregnant. Naturally, Belle doesn't o point out.

  "Ah, eating without paying is the best!!!"

  Yuri shouts suddenly, making Belle and Wise startle.

  "Oi, oi, oi, don't, you will turn into the sed Nicole"

  Belle reminds Yuri.

  "Nicole? Who's that?"

  Yuri titles her head cutely.

  "Ah, she's my acquaintance. Her slogan is something like you just said"

  Wise expins.

  "Hehe, ok, even though my off-day wasn't so smooth, it was fun with you guys"

  Yuri broadens her smile and her eyes almost close.

  "Guh, ing bae, throwing yourself for capitalists, w nonstop...My future is like the color of Ether..."

  "Bye bye guh guh guh"

  Yuri waves her hand in nostalgic arts away from the siblings...

  "Onii-, why is every tale not normal?"

  Belle gives Wise a fused look.

  "You're better not askio watch horror movie"

  Wise shrugs helplessly.

  "Yuri-san, Anby, Billy, Nicole, and Soldier 11...Each of them has their unique charm, huh?"

  Belle also yawns.

  "Okay, I'm going to sleep, good night Onii-"

  "You must've drained your energy in the Hollow...Good night, Belle"

  The two siblings return to their respective room. With that, the long day has ended...
