...
Despite my excursion to Red Winter being a vacation, it ended quickly due to the springs drying up, and so the next day I was back to paperwork hell.
Fuck this shit.

OH THANK GOD!
Huh, it's always when I'm suffering though this shit that one of my students texts me to hang out. I wonder why.
Shaking that thought away, I read the first text from Aris.
Ba-ba-ba-bam! Bam bam!
I have levelled up! I am much stronger than before!
Oh yeah? Congrats.
I wonder if you can level up any more Sensei.
If I could, it'd probably take a million XP to just get half a level.
That makes sense. Sensei is the Legendary Warrior, so he must be at, or near max level.
But if you can level up, that means when I go on my next adventure, you have to join the party!
You going on one now?
Indeed. Would you like to join me?
Sure, why not? This paperwork's killing me.
Great. I will be waiting for you.
An adventure, huh? I wonder what we're gonna do this time...
Checking the second text, I find it's from Neru. Wonder what she's up to.
Akane... Can you... contact everyone for me?
I can't believe this, but... I think I caught a cold.
I think... I'm gonna be late.
You've got the wrong number, Neru.
I say that, but I still forward her text to Akane. Maybe I should go pay her a visit later. But for now, I oughta go see Aris.

Sure enough, I soon found Aris once I neared our meeting place, a street corner in Millennium.
"There you are, Sensei!" Aris says, smiling her usual blindingly-bright smile as she runs up to me.
"Here I am!" I joke, smiling as I hold my arms out.
"Today is an excellent day to go on an adventure!" The android girl chirps. "Aris has unlocked many more features after levelling up."
"Oh? Like what?" I ask, curious.
"Item looting." She answers simply.
"Item wha?"
"Let Aris show you." She says, walking to a nearby trash can and-
bang
-proceeding to kick it, knocking it over.
"Aris?"
"Yes, Sensei?"
"Why... Why are you kicking a trash can?" I ask, slowly.
"You can usually get a lot of items by doing this." She explains.
"I-I guess you aren't wrong." I say, taken aback. "People do throw away a bunch of stuff."
"Yup. This is just like how it was in the RPG Aris just played, as well as the side-scrolling action game from a few days ago." The long haired girl explains, before looking down as something catches her eye from the knocked over bin. "Oh! Aris has found a recovery item in the pile of trash."
