Fatal Bullet (Various x Female Reader)

Chapter Eight (Talks in the Park)

        "What?! You already got the ArFA-sys part?!" Kureha exclaimed. I smirked and nodded.

"Yep! Hikaru and I stayed up late last night to grind for levels. We should be pretty close to everyone's levels now." Kirito and Asuna looked at me in surprise.

"I knew you were a fast leveler, (Y/N), but you really surprise me sometimes!" Asuna stated. Hikaru nodded.

"Master even took on the boss to get the part practically by herself! She pretty much soloed the boss!" He exclaimed. Kirito looked to me in shock, but laughed.

"You're a lot like I was, huh? I'm betting that Final Salvation was great for the fight." I nodded.

"Yeah, it was the finisher for that boss. Hey, Hikaru, why don't we see what that part was?" I asked him. He nodded his head excitedly. He took the part and it vanished when Hikaru touched it.

"It's for my brain! I feel smarter now!" He exclaimed. I tilted my head in interest.

"How exactly are you smarter now?" I questioned.

"My vault functionality has been expanded. Now you can deposit money and even invest it, too!" I raised my brows and folded my arms in thought.

"Hm, maybe I should put my money into you... Maybe then people won't break into my apartment late at night... Wait... Did I just say that out loud?!" I panicked. Everyone looked to me in worry.

"What?! (Y/N), you better tell me what happened right now!" And cue worried Asuna, who is also lecture central Asuna. I sighed.

"After I got off last night, I heard something crash in my living room. When I went to check on it, my window in the living room was wide open and there was nobody around. I checked everything and nothing was stolen. Just one thing broke, which was a picture frame from a couple of years ago that had... um... friends in it..." I looked down to the ground. Kureha frowned in worry.

"Isn't your apartment on the third level? How would someone get through the window?" She asked.

"The fire escape is right next to my window. It's pretty easy to get in and out through there. It was the only possible way the could have gotten into my home because my door is double locked. You need both the pass code and my key to get in." Kirito had a concerned look on his face.

"(Y/N), get your lock changed today." I looked at him in confusion.

"What, why? I'm fine, right?" I asked. He shook his head.

"It's possible that whoever broke into your home had the intentions of making a copy of your key. It's possible to hack a keypad, and if what you say is true, then this could be a planned attack." My eyes widened in shock.

"What? Aren't you being a little overdramatic?" I questioned. Asuna shook her head.

"No, I agree with Kirito. Please, it's better safe than sorry." I sighed and nodded.

"Yeah... You're right... I'll see you guys later then. I'm going to have to call the locksmith to get my locks changed up then. I also have plans later, so I'm not sure when I'll be getting back on." I gave them a reassuring grin.

"I'm sure that this was just nothing, alright! Hey, Hikaru, you can do whatever you want while I'm gone, just make sure you stay with someone from the group if you want to head out. I don't want a repeat of last night, alright?" He nodded.

"Of course, Master! I'll make sure to keep safe. You be safe too, alright Master?" I nodded.

"I'll be fine. Alright, I guess I'll be going then." I sighed and logged out.
