Maria~ listen~
*Mogu *chomp

How many times have I told you not to address me so informally, you're my subordinate.
Oh, come on. Who cares.

[It's not good.] You don't understand how many times I've cried because of my name...
Last time when I was conducting sales...
*Fuu [Sigh]

This is more important! Listen, Maria!

I got dumped by Endou-kun~
*E-n [Wah~]
Endou-kun? Weren't you going out with Oomori-kun?
No, Oomori-kun just takes me out for food. Endou-kun, you know the one at the mixer!

Ah, that's right. He was the best looking one there. So why'd you break up?
And he was the one I had my sights on, but she snatched him away from me.
You know what he told me?
*GubiGubi *Glug Glug

"I'm sick of real women."
An Unreal woman stole him from me~

What are those?
You don't know what the Unreal is~? It's a game. A g-a-m-e.

I think he bought the game right after we started going out and he got really into it and we started to spend less and less time together. He said that the girls in the game have better personalities and are cuter than me- even though I'm real. Isn't it horrible?
*Pera pera [blahblah]

Endou-kun really let himself go and has gotten fat so I don't really care but, losing a man to a game is the worst!
*Pun Pun

Hey, Maria, you've got some seaweed on your face.
That's my mole!

Page 6
"Isn't it horrible?" What a joke, you're the one who keeps playing these men for all they've got.
I dunno what the hell it is, but the Unreal is awesome!
*Wa ha ha ha ha

When was the last time...
I've gotten some? [I did it]

*Pirorirorin Pirorirorin

*Pi
*Incoming Message

Wassuuuup. Nagaooo~ We coming through~?
*Pa-
Well, well.
Hey Miss Nagao-san <3 [Nagao-nee-san]

Page 7
What's up you two?
You hitting on me?
That's riiiight.

Nah, it's not really a big deal but,
Takuro,

he hasn't been to work in 3 days.

W-why?

Weeeeeell,
We spoke to him mom on the phone but we don't really get the gist of it.

Sorry but, could you drop by and check on him?
Nagao-san, be careful!

A-all right.
I'll drop by now so give me the address.
Understood!

Did the liposuction prodcedure fail!?
Sakamoto-kun!

*Kiki-

*Gacha
*Gishi-

Page 9
*Don Don Don
Anyone home? Sakaomoto-kun.

Is everyone out~? What should I do?

COME OUT HERE TAKURO-!!
*Biku-
Whoa!

I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!!

GIVE ME BACK MY BODYSUIT-!!
Hold on,

How dare you take advantage of another person's good intentions, Who the hell said that you could keep it for 3 days- What the hell am I gonna do if the suit gets all stretched out! HEY-!
*Sha- Sha- Sha-

Hold on, um...

STOP IT, I'LL CALL THE COPS! WHO ARE YOU!?
*Biku-

Page 10

Who are you!?
I'm a coworker of his, Sakamoto-kun is resting from his surgery so I came to check on him.

Surgery...? For what?

Uhm, well, Sakamoto underwent liposuction so he could lose some weight. You're his friend. right? You didn't know about it?

Now I get it.

Are you... the one who lent Takuro 100,000 yen?
Huh? ... Yeah, so?

I see, I see. What a shame but he didn't undergo any surgery.
*Kekekeke

He took your money and,
spent it on a VVH(Virtual Vagina Hole.) In other words, an, "Adult toy,"

Page 11

So he could have sex,
with a girl in the Unreal.

Um, I don't really get what you're talking about but...

*Uuuu

S-Sakamoto-kun are you there!?
Yeah, he is, but he isn't.
*Fuguu
*Ooooo

*Uhi Uhihi Ahha-
What the hell are you talking about! He's right up there!! Damn, you're loud, Sakamoto!!
He can't hear you. Even if his body is up there, his heart's completely in the Unreal.

Page 12
*Kekekekekeke
If he's like this now then he's already a full blown Unreal addict, soon he won't even be able to return to reality. You sure lent your money for something real troublesome!

Ke!?
*Gu-

Fine then!
Take me to this, "Unreal" right now!!

Get in!
*Do sa-
*Hi [Ack!]

U-Um, I get carsick eas-
SHUT UP!!
*Gya gya gya gya

I can't believe that bastard tricked me~
I'm going to kill him!!!
*Giri Giri Giri

Uwa, it's so dirty...
T-This is the Unreal?
No...

Am I... supposed to wear this?
That's right. It's an early model so the images might not look too great.

Hey- hold on!
It's completely dark. This is the Unreal?
No...

There's no time to create a character for you so we'll just take grab your image from the camera.
I don't know what's going on, but just hurry up and take me to the Unreal.

Page 14

Whoa!
W-w-what-!?

Wow~
This is the Unreal?
Yes.

W-who the hell are you!?
Keke
I'm Reinhart. Nice to meet you. [Rainharto, check for consistancy]

R-raiharuo?
No, Reinhart!
Huh? Whatever, I'll just call you, "Haruo."

Hey, what's this? There's an invisible wall here-!
So don't step over there, didn't I just tell you that?

Page 15
T-This is Sakamoto-kun's house?
That's right.

It's no good, he's not here either.
*Gacha Gacha

What should we do, Haruo?
It's Reinhart, don't worry about it.

If he's not here, then there's only one other place he could be...

School.
You know, Haruo, you've got more charm as a shrimp, your face right now is just too unnatural.
S-Shut up, this is my true form!!

But, why would he be going to school now? I wouldn't want to.
Hmph! I'm of the same opinion. Everyone who comes here bear wounds in their hearts. The unreal was created so they could heal those wounds.

Page 16
Isn't that just running away?
There are things that you'd want to run away from too, aren't there?

For us, we didn't even have a place in the real world to run away to.

School Infirmary
He's here.
Huh? Here?
I'm sure of it. [There's no mistake]

*Gara-

Kya-! [Eek!]
Shit! I forgot to lock the door!

I was wrong... Let's go to the next spot.

Page 17
Girl's Bathroom [Uh check consistancy]

*Waa
*Ban-

*Nuu
*Sha-

*Kya-
*Don

Every last...
one of 'em...
*Ka- ka- ka- ka-

They're all just,
having sex!!!

Page 18
So, all that's left is the roof!?
*Ga- ga- ga- ga- ga-
Hey, if you run you're gonna hit another wall!
SHUT UP!

COME ON-
*Ban
GET OUT HERE SAKAMOTO!!

Huh?
Mnn
*Kucha-
