*Maruko's pov*

"... What?" This is all I'm thinking.

Of all the things to think about while hanging from a cliff of sure death, I'm thinking about what just happened. If all the questions in my head turned into solid bricks over my head. Then I would easily fall down with a serious head concussion. I mean seriously, what the hell is going on?

'Who is this girl? Where's the creeper? What's going on? How is she able to hold onto me so easily? Why does she look so familiar? ...'

... Why does she look familiar?

That question stuck on my brain.

'...Maybe she's... No I have to make sure.' It took me a minute to figure it out but it was only a hunch. So I need to confirm if what I think is happening, is happening.

"I said are you alright."

I snapped back into reality as soon as she spoke again.

"... Oh right. You think you could help me out?" I laugh awkwardly from my stupidity and without a moment's hesitation I'm pulled up from my impending doom.

...

"So... what's your name?"

"How about a thank you first?"

Ok, I guess giving a thanks for saving my ass, should've been the first thing to say.

'Way to go me!' I sarcastically thought to myself.

Meanwhile the girl in front of me, is staring at me slightly hurt for my impoliteness.

But now that I'm out of the chasm I could finally get a look at her.

As I saw before she indeed have orange hair, golden eyes, and a green hoodie with the face of the creeper. But when I looked down at her legs, she was wearing shorts that were so small , it almost looked like she was wearing only panties. But the one thing that I didn't expect was how small her stature actually was. I mean she looked to be someone my age, but she I was practically taller by 4 inches. (By the way I'm 5.8, so she's 5.4). Which made me realize,'How the hell was she able to pull me up so easily?'

"Ok... Thanks for the save... I guess?" I tried to speak leisurely and hoped I wasn't making the situation more awkward than it is.

She giggles, "You're weird."

Somewhere in my heart I felt a sharp pain as if some camper in a first-person shooter sniped a clear shot from behind me. 'There goes a bit of my dignity' I thought to myself.

"So are you going to tell me your name?" Snapping back to our conversation I immediately ask the girl in front of me her name.

"Oh right, well my name is Cupa, pleased to meet you Mr..."

"Maruko" I finish the last part of her sentence. "Maruko Riso Tekina, that's my name."

"Maruko?" She looks at me questioningly and tilts her head. "What a weird name to a weird person."

And again she calls me weird. Normally this really wouldn't phase me since I'm usually called that back at home. So why am I sensitive about this now? Maybe it's because this is the first time I'm called that by a resident of the gaming world. If she's from this world. For all I know, she could've been sucked in here the same as me, but that's unlikely.

However, I was still annoyed so I gave my own retort." Well so is Cupa."

She gawked at my statement, "Ouch."

It became awkward for 1 minute.

...

"So Maruko, how did you get your name?"
