We have maintenance for a few minutes, please wait!

Beta read by some people.&nbsp;Mirae was walking down the street, minding her own business as she was carrying a bag of groceries. As she was walking, she saw something.&nbsp;"Mommy, I want to eat dinner!"&nbsp;The mom let out a chuckle. "Wait until we get home sweetie." she replied, to which the child pouted before the two began to walk away.&nbsp;For a moment, Mirae could not help but feel nostalgic seeing how the mother and son interacted with each other. It was like seeing herself with her guardian back at the island or herself with Ara and the others again.&nbsp;It was then that a certain question crossed her mind.&nbsp;"How are children made?"&nbsp;(Later…)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Seha, how are children made?"&nbsp;Immediately, Seha was flabbergasted on Mirae's question and started to choke on the food he was eating earlier, alarming Mirae.&nbsp;"Seha! Are you alright?!"&nbsp;"I-I'm fine. I was just surprised by your question…" he said as he was catching his breath before it was fully restored to normal. "W-Why did you ask me that? And where did that come from?"&nbsp;"Well, earlier when I went out for groceries, I saw a mother and her son talking earlier and it reminded me of my time when I was on the island."&nbsp;"...You still miss your friends from there?"&nbsp;"Yes. My time with Ara and the others did bring some happy memories despite how they ended up eventually. When I saw the mother with her child, it reminded me of how Ara and the others would gather around me, and I would always help them or play with them. In fact, the image of that is still in my head right now."&nbsp;"I see…"&nbsp;For a moment, the two did not say anything as they continued to eat their dinner. However, Mirae brought back the conversation. "Hey, Seha…speaking of family…what was your mom like?"&nbsp;"My mom? Well…my mom was pretty…and smart. She was someone I was able to look up to, especially in my childhood."&nbsp;"Really?"&nbsp;"Yes. She even managed to raise me alone while balancing her duties as a Closer too."&nbsp;That got Mirae interested. "She raised you alone while being a Closer? You mean…you don't have a father? How come?"&nbsp;Seha let out a sigh. "Well…that's the odd thing. I did ask my mom who my dad was in the past, but I didn't get an answer. Even now, I still don't know who he is…"&nbsp;It was then Mirae reached over the table and patted Seha on the head, playing with his hair. "There, there. Everything will be fine. You'll find the answer eventually."&nbsp;At that moment, Seha could not help but let out a smile. "Just how does Mirae do it? She always finds the right way to make me feel less depressed, not that I mind…" he thought to himself before replying to Mirae. "Thanks, Mirae."&nbsp;"No problem. So…how are children made?" Mirae asked.&nbsp;For a moment, Seha was silent before answering Mirae's question. "Well…it's a bit embarrassing to answer…and…well, a bit uncomfortable to say."------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Night has passed, and both Seha and Mirae were in bed together, preparing to go to sleep. As they were getting themselves comfortable, Seha started to talk. "Mirae, do you mind if I ask you a question?"&nbsp;"Sure. What is it?"&nbsp;"Well…have you considered what to do when you stop being a Closer? Or lose your phase force?"&nbsp;For a moment, Mirae was stunned by Seha's question. "What do you mean by that? You can lose your phase force?"&nbsp;"Well…the thing is that a Closer can lose phase force due to a disease known as Phase Force loss syndrome. I've seen it happen to people before."&nbsp;"Really?" Mirae asked, astonished after hearing such a thing exists.&nbsp;Seha nodded in reply. "Take J for example. He lost his phase force during the last war."&nbsp;Mirae's eyes widened upon hearing it. "Really? And he still accomplished what happened in Busan?" she asked, to which Seha replied with a nod. "Wow…but Seha, why are you asking me this question?"&nbsp;It was then Seha let out a small blush. "Well…when you mentioned how children were made, it somehow gave me the thought of what would happen after everything is over. I mean, all of this would end eventually, and…well, Closers would cease to exist."&nbsp;"I see...do you have an answer?"&nbsp;Seha let out a sigh. "If I were to be honest, I don't know what to do if I suddenly stopped becoming a Closer. My life has always revolved around Closers one way or another, and even I became one. To stop being a Closer…I haven't even thought about that, let alone what to do after that."&nbsp;As Seha said those words, Mirae could not help but notice a hint of sadness on his face. "Seha…"&nbsp;It was then he turned to Mirae. "What about you?"&nbsp;"Eh? Me?" she asked, making Seha nod in reply. "Well…I guess I'm just like you. When you asked me that question, I've never considered what to do outside of being a Closer. However…"&nbsp;"However?"&nbsp;It was then Mirae grabbed Seha's hands and held them up with her own.&nbsp;"If I were to stop being a Closer…I hope it's in a world where dimensional monsters would cease to appear every day.."&nbsp;At that moment, Seha was speechless until his expression changed. "A world without dimensional monsters appearing…I would love that." Seha said with a soft smile.&nbsp;"Me too." Mirae replied before letting out a yawn. "It's getting late now. Let's go to sleep."&nbsp;Seha nodded in reply. "Good night, Mirae."&nbsp;"Good night, Seha."&nbsp;And the two fell asleep…------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Mirae opened her eyes, seeing herself in a park under the blue sky. "This is…" she thought to herself.&nbsp;It was then she felt something, or rather some people grab onto her hands. As she did, she looked down to see two kids, each holding on to her hands. The kid who was holding on to her left hand looked like her, but with golden eyes. The other kid who was holding onto the remaining arm looked like Seha, but with her ruby eyes and Seha's silver hair.&nbsp;For a moment, Mirae was stunned with the kids in front of her. However, it was not over yet.&nbsp;"Mama! Let's go! Papa's waiting!" the girl said.&nbsp;"Yes. Along with the others." the boy said.&nbsp;Mirae's eyes widened before quickly seeing Seha, who was waiting under a tree, carrying a baby in his hands with a smile on his face and another child who looked like a female Seha was sitting on the ground. For a moment, Mirae was completely stunned at the situation in front of her.&nbsp;But then, she let out a smile. “Yes. Let's go.”-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Mirae opened her eyes, seeing herself in Seha's room. For a moment, she blinked before realizing what she saw earlier was a dream. "A dream?"&nbsp;It was then a yawn was heard, and it came from Seha, who was waking up. "Mmmgh…good morning, Mirae…" he mumbled as he was still drowsy.&nbsp;"Good morning, Seha."&nbsp;As Seha was getting himself awake, he noticed that Mirae was wearing a smile on her face. "Mirae, you're smiling. Did you have a good dream?"&nbsp;For a moment, Mirae was silent before saying her answer. "Yes. It was a good dream." she replied before a thought came into her head. "A dream I want to achieve in the future..."-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Omake&nbsp;"Hm…Seha said it's a bit uncomfortable to say how children are made, but why?" Mirae thought to herself as she was walking around in the library. However, it was then that a book suddenly fell onto the ground. "Hm? This is…"&nbsp;She then went down and picked up the book. As she did, her eyes widened.&nbsp;Because the book was about sexual reproduction, and the title mentioned how babies were made.&nbsp;Immediately, Mirae gulped and began to take a look at its contents…&nbsp;(Later…)&nbsp;"Mirae is taking her time in the library. I wonder if she found something good to read…" Seha thought to himself as he was preparing dinner. However, it was then he heard the door open, revealing Mirae. "Ah, Mirae. You're back. How was the library?"&nbsp;However, Mirae did not say anything as she just sat down on a chair.&nbsp;"Mirae? Is there something wrong?"&nbsp;"Seha…I now know…how children are made…" Mirae said with a massive blush on her face.&nbsp;Immediately, Seha blushed as well. “I…I see…”

Beta read by people&nbsp;"Man, cleaning up the house takes a lot of work, even with phase force…" Seha thought to himself as he dusted off a corner of the house.&nbsp;"Hey, Seha. Where do I put this?"&nbsp;Upon hearing that voice, Seha turned around to see Mirae who was carrying a massive box. "Oh that? Put it in a corner somewhere, I'll check the contents later." he replied. Mirae nodded and placed the box in a nearby corner before getting back to cleaning. "I can't believe this much dust was piled up around the house. Then again, with being a Closer, there's barely any time to clean up the house…"&nbsp;Meanwhile, Mirae was cleaning another part of the house. "So this is what cleaning the house is like…it's not like back at the island…" she thought to herself as she wiped the windows. "And this type of work…it's not bad…"&nbsp;Soon, Seha and Mirae were done with the house cleaning. "Phew. We're done." Seha said as he let out a sigh.&nbsp;"Yeah.&nbsp;"By the way…what was in that box?" Mirae asked as she pointed at the box she put in a nearby corner.&nbsp;"That box…I have no clue actually. It must have been from a long time ago."&nbsp;"I see…want to open it?"&nbsp;"Hmm…sure. I don't see any harm opening it."&nbsp;The two then opened the box. Upon seeing what was inside, Seha immediately knew what the box was.&nbsp;It was a box filled with his childhood memories. Stuff that he collected during his childhood.&nbsp;Before he became a Closer.&nbsp;"Seha…what is all of this?" Mirae asked curiously.&nbsp;"That is…all of my stuff from my childhood."&nbsp;"All of this?" she asked as she looked at the contents with curiosity.&nbsp;"Yeah. You can take a look at them if you want."&nbsp;Interested, Mirae then examined the contents of the box. In it, she saw various items such as toys and photos, and she was in awe. "So this is the stuff Seha had as a kid…cute…" she thought to herself as she looked at them. It was then that something caught her eye, and she grabbed it. However, when she saw it, she was a little confused.&nbsp;Because it was a photo of what appears to be Seha, but rather with white hair and golden-yellow eyes.&nbsp;"Hey…Seha…do you have a sibling by any chance?"&nbsp;"Hm? No. Why?"&nbsp;"Well…there's this photo…that looks like you, but differently."&nbsp;Immediately, Seha knew what Mirae was talking about. "Oh. That…that's me when I activated my phase force…" he said sadly.&nbsp;It was then Mirae knew she accidentally brought up his past again. "Sorry. I didn't mean to bring your past up again."&nbsp;"No. It's fine actually. In fact, now that we're together…it's about time that I tell you everything." Seha said with a sigh.&nbsp;"Eh? Are you sure?" Mirae asked worryingly.&nbsp;"Yeah. Although it may take a while to tell you everything. I hope that you don't mind."&nbsp;"No. I don't mind." Mirae replied.&nbsp;Soon, both Seha and Mirae sat down on the couch. As they did, Seha began to speak out. "Well…as you already know, my childhood wasn't particularly a happy one for the most part." Seha said, to which Mirae nodded in reply. "Well…the biggest reason why…is because of who I am."&nbsp;That got Mirae confused. "Who you are? What do you mean?"&nbsp;"Well, before I continue, let me ask you this. Have you ever heard of Jisu Seo?"&nbsp;"Jisu Seo? I've heard a few bits about her. She's a hero from the last war, right?" Mirae replied to which Seha nodded in reply. "What does she has to do with you?"&nbsp;Seha let out a deep sigh. "Jisu Seo…is my mom."&nbsp;Mirae was surprised upon hearing his words. "Jisu Seo is your mom?"&nbsp;"Yes."&nbsp;For a short moment, there was silence between the two before Mirae continued the conversation. "I see…so, what does being Jisu's son have anything to do with this?"&nbsp;Seha sighed again. "Well, when I was growing up, I had to deal with a lot of attention from everyone due to my mom's status as a hero from the last dimensional war. It was really frustrating because a lot of people did not see me as Seha Lee, but rather Jisu Seo's son. Not to mention that me and my mom felt like we lost our privacy as human beings."&nbsp;At that moment, Mirae could not help but feel bad about Seha. "Did you had someone to talk to at the time?"&nbsp;"Aside from my mom, not really. I did have some friends, but looking back, they only wanted to meet my mom and never really wanted to talk to me in general."Immediately, Mirae felt disgusted at how people completely disregarded Seha as a person. However, the storytelling was not over yet.&nbsp;"And…things got worse when my phase force was awakened."&nbsp;Mirae's eyes widened upon hearing Seha's words. "It did? What happened?"&nbsp;"Well, when my phase force was awakened, I had to deal with a lot of pressure from other people because everyone now had high expectations of me. Everyone wanted me to be something like my mom, and they did not care about my own opinion or decisions. And…I even got more lonely than before."&nbsp;"Really?"&nbsp;Seha nodded. "Because of my phase force awakening, those so-called friends stayed away from me, and for a long time, I was truly alone. Everyday felt empty, my mind felt like it was going to explode, and I couldn't take it anymore. It was then I had to transfer from my old school to one sponsored by UNION due to my phase force. It was then I first met my team leader, Sylvi. And from then on, I met the rest of my team members as well, leading up to my current situation."&nbsp;At that moment, Mirae could not believe how much loneliness Seha had experienced before in his lifetime. While she was glad that Seha eventually met his team members, the fact that he nearly had no one to talk to during his life was heartbreaking for her.&nbsp;And she can relate to that as well, because she experienced loneliness too.&nbsp;For a moment, Seha did not say anything but brought a hand to his face. "To be honest, there were times I wondered if I had any sense of who I am. No matter where I go, I'm always reminded of my existence as my mom's son. Then there were the times that I was being used by people just to meet my mom, and it really hurts…and angered me. It felt like I was just an afterthought for people, like they didn't care about me or who I am as a person. If I hadn't met Sylvi and the others…I wouldn't want to know how my life would have turned out…" he said bitterly.&nbsp;"Seha…"&nbsp;"Mirae…just who am I? And…do I even deserve to live?"&nbsp;For a moment, Mirae was silent before bringing Seha into a hug. "That's simple. You are you, Seha. A Closer. The same Closer that I fell in love with, and nothing is going to change that. Remember, you're not alone anymore. You have your teammates, the people from UNION that help us with our missions, the other teams you met…and me. So please, don't think of yourself negatively like that. Doing that makes me sad…"&nbsp;For a moment, Seha was motionless before returning the hug. "Sorry. I didn't mean to make you sad like this…"&nbsp;"It's fine. To be honest, I didn't know you felt this way about yourself until now…"&nbsp;The two remained in the hug for a while, feeling the warmth of each other in the embrace. After a while, Mirae let go of Seha before asking him a question. "Hey…Seha…can I ask you to do something?"&nbsp;"Sure. What is it?"&nbsp;"Well…do you mind if I see your eyes? Without the contact lens."&nbsp;For a moment, Seha was a bit stunned at Mirae's request. "Are you sure?"&nbsp;Mirae nodded in reply. "I want to see all of you, and I mean it. I want to see what you truly look like. After all, how can I stay by you if I don't see the real you?"Seha remained silent for a short while before saying his answer. "A-Alright. Just let me go to the bathroom for a bit. I've got to wash them out." he said as he got off the couch and went for the bathroom, leaving Mirae alone. After a short while, he came back.&nbsp;But with golden-yellow eyes. His true eyes.&nbsp;Seha did not say anything as he sat down next to Mirae again. "W-Well…how do you feel after seeing them?"&nbsp;For a moment, Mirae was silent after seeing his eyes, making Seha wonder if it was a bad idea. However, Mirae's answer completely changed everything.&nbsp;"They're beautiful."&nbsp;For a moment, Seha was completely stunned by Mirae's words. "R-Really?"&nbsp;Mirae nodded in reply. "Yes. They're the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. I don't see why you should use eye contacts to cover them up. They're fine the way they are."&nbsp;Immediately, Seha was completely overwhelmed with Mirae's words. However, she was not done talking yet.&nbsp;"However, if you still feel uncomfortable with your eyes and still want to use eye contacts, I'm okay with that as well. Just do whatever that makes you feel better."At that moment, Seha was completely speechless.&nbsp;"Seha? Are you alright?"&nbsp;"S-Sorry. It's just that…hearing someone say that about my eyes…that was the first time someone has ever done that. And…well…"&nbsp;It was then Mirae noticed a teardrop was coming out from Seha's eye. "Seha…are you crying?"&nbsp;"Eh?" He then wiped his eyes and saw that Mirae was correct. He was crying. "Ah. Sorry. I just wasn't expecting to-"&nbsp;Then, to Seha's surprise, Mirae wrapped her hands around his neck, and brought his face towards her breasts, making him blush as she smothering him with them. "It's okay to cry. If you want to cry, then do it. I'm not judging you if you cry or not. Just release everything. Let everything out if it makes you feel better." she said softly with a soothing tone of voice.&nbsp;For a moment, Seha did not say anything after hearing Mirae's words. However, what happened next was that a few whimpers and sniffing was heard.And then, Seha started crying, wailing in relief as tears started to come out of his eyes nonstop. The tears themselves began to run down his face, staining Mirae's shirt as it got wet over time. However, Mirae did not mind.&nbsp;Instead, she comforted him as she rubbed his hair and patted him on the back. "There, there. Let it all out. You don't have to hold it in forever. I'm here for you." she said.&nbsp;It was then Mirae made a new promise to herself. To give Seha the happiness he deserved. To make sure he never experiences sadness and loneliness again.&nbsp;Eventually, Seha stopped crying. "Do you feel better?" Mirae asked.&nbsp;"Yeah. I feel better." he said, muffled in her shirt.&nbsp;Mirae let out a soft sigh of relief. However, Seha was not done talking yet as to Mirae's surprise, he suddenly wrapped his arms around Mirae's waist. "Seha?"&nbsp;"Mirae. Um…do you mind if we stay like this a little longer? It's just that…well, this feels good…and I don't want to let go…" he asked with a blush and embarrassment on his face.&nbsp;Mirae let out a giggle upon hearing Seha's request. "Sure. If it makes you feel better, I don't mind. Just stay here as long as you wish." she said as she wrapped her arms around Seha's body.&nbsp;And the two remained like this…&nbsp;(Later that evening…)&nbsp;As Seha was lying down on the bed, he could not help but feel warm thinking about what happened in the afternoon. "I did it. I told Mirae everything about my past…and…everything feels different now…" It was then he heard a knock coming from the door. "Mirae?"&nbsp;"Seha, do you mind if I come in?"&nbsp;"Sure."&nbsp;The door then opened, revealing Mirae who was wearing a nightgown. For a moment, Seha could not help but blush upon seeing her. "Is there something wrong?"&nbsp;"Um…Seha, if you don't mind…can I sleep with you?"&nbsp;At that moment, Seha was completely dumbfounded before snapping himself back to reality. "Why?"&nbsp;"Well…I feel a bit lonely without you actually…so…please?"&nbsp;For a moment, Seha was silent for a few seconds before giving his reply. "Sure."&nbsp;Mirae let out a soft smile as she walked towards Seha's bed before slowly raising the bed sheets and lying down next to him. As she laid down next to him, she grabbed his arm and moved it towards her breasts while bringing herself closer to him, making him blush.&nbsp;"Seha."&nbsp;"What is it?"&nbsp;"I promise you, I won't leave you alone. That, I swear." she said as she held onto him tighter.&nbsp;For a moment, nothing happened between the two before Seha replied. "Thank you."&nbsp;"No problem. Now then, let's go to sleep." she said as she got into a comfortable position. Meanwhile, Seha slightly rolled over to where Mirae was and wrapped his arm around her. However, he was not ready to go to sleep yet.&nbsp;"Mirae."&nbsp;"What?"&nbsp;"I love you."&nbsp;Mirae let out a small giggle. "I love you too."&nbsp;And the two fell asleep together…

Release From The Past

Spring reminds me of flowers, especially cherry blossoms, so I dressed Levia in pink to resemble the soft hues of cherry blossoms. Spring also symbolizes new beginnings and love. The bamboo in the background represents a fresh start, while the cherry blossom trees create the feeling of being on a date with Levia. This might be one of the photos you taken of her during your special moment together.&nbsp;&nbsp;Closers Name: DonCharacter Name: Sellas

[Spring 2025]

As the title says--would love to have the ability to change the effect color of my skills. Particularly as Violet, where I have many beautiful color-coordinated outfits, yet my skills are only light blue or pink.&nbsp; I know that the ability to change skill color exists (Solomon Outfit), so this appeal is to be able to customize skill color (red, purple, green, etc.) as desired so we can coordinate our whole character design.&nbsp; &nbsp;This is not limited to Violet either; it would be wonderful to see on any of the characters that we all know and love.&nbsp; Thank you for your consideration! :D&nbsp;

Request for ability to change skill effect color

Hey ya'll, I'm a returning player &amp; I'm familiar with the game up until the Dream Theatre Raid (I forget it's name, my bad) &amp; as far as I know, I've never encountered this issue before, but the gist of it is that, during Yuri's Shift skill you're able to dash twice or whatever. Sometimes I have noticed that the cooldown on the skill doesn't properly show up &amp; it makes it look like you still have an additional dash? now, if you go to use that said additional dash.. you will be disconnected? I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, as I am a returning player &amp; perhaps, It's just a me problem? regardless, I find it pretty annoying &amp; frustrating as I'm trying to level up &amp; I sometimes I forget about the glitch &amp; disconnect myself mid-dungeon. Does anyone else have this issue? is there a way to fix it?? thanks!

Yuri's Shift Skill "Glitch" ?

Erm! the issue isn't seemingly resolved though? as it's.. still.. there. I have long since repaired files &amp; what have you. Thank you for trying to help but, it didn't resolve my issue. :,(

Have you tried to use the magnifying glass button thing found in the launcher? If I remember correctly this issue has been resolve some time ago

So i installed the game through Steam, updated it but get this message when i log in..

Any solution?

The inquiry is a bit confusing but you should be able to see it here https://www.closersonline.com/mypage/inquiry

Lol did a 1:1 inquiry about this, got deleted without reply..&nbsp;Private server it is than ;)

A Clueless Valentine's Day

Beta read by someone.&nbsp;A few days has passed since Seha and Mirae confessed their feelings towards each other, and they are now a couple.&nbsp;And this is one way they spend their days together in their new-found relationship…-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Mirae let out a sigh as she looked out the window.&nbsp;"Is there something wrong, Mirae?" Seha asked.&nbsp;"Well…it's raining outside." she said with a mix of a sad and pouty tone of voice.&nbsp;"You don't like the rain?"&nbsp;"Kind of. Everything outside looks dark and gloomy, and the rain just makes everything wet. And…it kind of reminds me of those days back on the island..."&nbsp;Seha let out a small sigh. "To be honest, nobody did not expect the sudden weather change. Even the weather forecast was sure that today was going to be a clear day, not filled with rain, so you can't blame them."&nbsp;"I know, but still…it looks depressing outside…"&nbsp;For a short while, nothing happened as the two were looking out the rain. It was then that an idea came into Seha's head. "Wait for a second, Mirae. I got something that can keep us busy." he said before exiting the room, leaving Mirae alone.&nbsp;"I wonder what Seha is doing…" Mirae thought as she was waiting on the couch. After some time, Seha returned with a large box alone with a few cases in his hands. Upon seeing the box, Mirae was intrigued with it. "Seha, what is that?"&nbsp;"This? This is an old game console that I used to play as a kid." he said with a soft smile on his face.&nbsp;"I see. Is it fun?"&nbsp;"Yeah. Want to give it a go?"&nbsp;"Sure."&nbsp;Soon, Seha went over to the living room and opened up the box, revealing its contents to them. As Seha looked at the contents, nostalgia came into his head. "It's been a while since I've played on this console…I wonder if I had lost my touch on using this. After all, I haven't played this since I became a Closer."&nbsp;Meanwhile, Mirae was intrigued by the video game console. Instead of the typical hand-held console she saw in Seha's hands, the one she was looking at was bigger, had a lot of wires, and two controllers she had not seen before. "This console…it looks a lot different from the one Seha plays with. There's so much here…and what is that large thing? And what are those two things?"&nbsp;The two then began to take the console and its components out of the package. Upon seeing the components up close, Mirae's interest grew even further. "Hey Seha, how does all of this work?"&nbsp;"Oh, this? It's quite simple actually. All you have to do is to connect the wires to the tv based on the shape of the cable." Seha replied. "Afterwards, just connect the controllers to the console."&nbsp;"Controllers…you mean these?" she asked as she picked up the two controllers.&nbsp;"Yes, those."&nbsp;Soon, Seha and Mirae were done setting up the game console before Seha started up the game console. They then sat down on the couch, grabbing the controllers.&nbsp;"Seha. What kind of game are we playing?"&nbsp;"A racing game."&nbsp;Mirae was puzzled at Seha's words. "A racing game? What is that? Is that different from the video games you usually play?"&nbsp;"Yes. Completely different. The goal of all racing games is to finish the race track first and win first place." he said as the game menu popped out. As it did, Seha selected the two player option, changing the scene.&nbsp;As it happened, the screen then showed the couple multiple characters to choose from, leaving Mirae amazed. "Wow. There's so many characters to choose from…and they all look different. In fact, some of them look like animals I've never seen before…" she thought to herself. "Hey Seha, what character should I pick?"&nbsp;"That's simple. Just choose which character you like."&nbsp;"Is that so?" she asked to which Seha nodded in reply. "Then…I'll choose that one." she said as she chose a character.&nbsp;"Alright. Now we choose the carts we want to drive in."&nbsp;"Carts? What are those?"&nbsp;"Well…they're like cars, but a little smaller." he said before the screen changed images. "Like those for example."&nbsp;Upon seeing the screen, Mirae immediately knew what Seha was talking about. "I see. So they have wheels, but no doors and roofs…" she was going through the selection of karts. As she did, she noticed that some of them had intricate designs. "Hey Seha, why does that kart look like a cloud? Are real-life carts like that too?"&nbsp;Seha let out a small sweat drop. "Well…not quite. It's just the game designer's choice. Real-life carts do not look like that."&nbsp;"I see."&nbsp;Soon, Seha and Mirae were done choosing their karts and were on the stage selection. "Hm…since this is Mirae's first time playing this game, I'll choose the easy stage." Seha thought to himself before choosing the easiest stage.&nbsp;"Um…Seha, how do I play this game?"&nbsp;"Oh. It's quite simple. Just press down on the 'A' button for the kart to go forward and the 'B' button for braking."&nbsp;Soon, the race was going to begin. As the countdown reached its end, both Seha and Mirae pressed the 'A' button on their controllers and their karts began to go. As the two were driving in their karts, Mirae was experiencing amazement with the entire race. "So this is what a racing game feels like…"&nbsp;"Wow. It's been a long time since I've played this game. I wonder if I have got rusty at the controls…"&nbsp;It was then Mirae got something. "Seha, what is this?"&nbsp;"Oh that? That's an item box. It randomly generates an item that can be used during the race."&nbsp;"I see. How do I use it?"&nbsp;"Simple. Press the 'Z' button."&nbsp;"Z button…ah, there." Mirae then used the item…and to Seha's surprise, managed to hit not one, but three opponents at once. "Like this?"&nbsp;For a moment, Seha was stunned before he started to laugh. "Yeah. Just like that." he said before his attention was back towards the race. "Wow. I can't believe she actually did that. And on her first try too."&nbsp;Soon, the race was about to come to an end as both Seha and Mirae were on their last lap.&nbsp;The two got their item boxes…and what happened next decided the race.&nbsp;Mirae got an item that allowed her to boost to the finish line, and Seha…got an item that hinders the opponents from behind.&nbsp;And the race ended with Mirae in first and Seha in second.&nbsp;"Wow. I…won." Mirae said.&nbsp;"You sure did, Mirae." Seha said with a smile on his face as he patted her head.&nbsp;Mirae slightly blushed as she felt Seha's hand going through her hair as it made her feel warm and good.&nbsp;"So…want to do it again?"&nbsp;Mirae smiled. "Sure."&nbsp;(After a few races…)&nbsp;Seha let out a sigh as he laid himself onto the floor in relaxation. "Man, my thumb is so sore from holding down the 'A' button for so long…" he thought as he looked at his thumb, which was slightly red. "Still though, I did not know Mirae was that good in racing games. Even though the tracks were easy, the fact that she managed to get first place in all of them surprises me…she must be a natural…"&nbsp;"Wow. That was fun." Mirae replied as she laid down on the ground as well. "Although…my thumb is sore…"&nbsp;"You and me both." Seha said with a chuckle. "I haven't played that video game console for a long time, so playing it again after all this time feels a lot different." he said as he raised his sore hand into the air. "&nbsp;It was then Mirae took his hand and gently fondled it.&nbsp;Suddenly, both of their stomachs started to growl, making them blush in embarrassment. "So…want to get something to eat?"&nbsp;"Sure. It's too early for dinner though…maybe a snack?"&nbsp;"Alright." Seha then got off the floor and headed towards the kitchen, seeing what snack they had. After minutes of searching, Seha returned with some bags of chips, candy, and bottles of soda. "Here."&nbsp;"Thanks." she said as she opened up a bag of chips and took a piece. "Hey, Seha."&nbsp;"What is it, Mirae?"&nbsp;"Is this how couples spend their time together?" she asked as she ate a chip.&nbsp;For a moment, Seha slightly blushed before answering Mirae's question. "Well…this is one way I suppose. There are many ways couples spend their time together actually, so there's no wrong answer for that answer. Why?"&nbsp;"Well…it's just what we're doing right now…feels really peaceful. There's no dimensional monsters to deal with, no missions to go on, it feels like…the threat we're facing right now doesn't exist. It feels…mysterious."&nbsp;Seha then gave Mirae's words some thought as he sat down next to Mirae. "You're right. Right now, everything is so peaceful that it's hard to believe that dimensional monsters can pop out at any moment. It's like...a life as normal people."&nbsp;"Mmn…" Mirae nodded as she got closer to Seha, holding onto his arm and bringing it close to her body.&nbsp;"Mirae? Is there something wrong?"&nbsp;"No. It's just that…I wish this peaceful moment would last forever…us together, free from any fighting."&nbsp;Seha then rested his head on Mirae's shoulder. "So do I."&nbsp;For a while, the two did nothing but sat together in tranquil silence; nothing bothering between the two. The two remained still, sitting next to each other as their bodies touched each other, feeling the warmth of each other.&nbsp;After a short while, Seha felt like continuing playing video games. "So…want to continue playing?"&nbsp;Mirae let out a soft smile. “Sure.”

<h3>General tips about invincibility/i-frames by Laststation</h3>&nbsp;Check out the images for examples of each tip.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tip#1: Extending Your I-frame Duration: To extend the duration of your invincible state let the animation of your skill play out by simply not pressing any keys. This technique is useful on characters with visually short skills such as Soma's Destruction Strike and Harpy's EX Sonic (Down) to get as much invulnerability time as possible. This concept also applies to skills with Damage Reduction as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tip#2: Lingering Invincibility: Eunha's, Mirae's, and Cheolsu's Enhanced Basic Attack and some skills like Harpy's Fortuna Revelation have a special property where you retain i-frame even if you were to cancel into another skill. Try and experimenting to see which skills of your characters have this.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tip#3: Dodge + Invincibility The game allows you to combine both actions to reposition if you need to get yourself out of a bad situation.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://image.closersonline.com/public/upload/files/Tip1_Extending_your_Invincibility_Time_Page_1-5ebb.png"></figure><figure class="image"><img src="https://image.closersonline.com/public/upload/files/Tip1_Extending_your_Invincibility_Time_Page_2-8a47.png"></figure><figure class="image"><img src="https://image.closersonline.com/public/upload/files/Tip2_Lingering_Invincibility-1299.png"></figure><figure class="image"><img src="https://image.closersonline.com/public/upload/files/Tip3_Dodge__Invinciblity_Page_1-4bdd.png"></figure><figure class="image"><img src="https://image.closersonline.com/public/upload/files/Tip3_Dodge__Invinciblity_Page_2-ae2c.png"></figure>

<h3>Additional Rewards using Reset Timers by GameDead</h3>&nbsp;Dimensional Doppelgangers is a sector that offers 2 daily runs and is a great way to get additional valuable resources for your character. You may find that a lot of days offer very lackluster rewards, but days such as Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday offer a great way to gather resources such as fuel for enhancing, phase fiber for costume enhancement/crafting and Malek crystals for credits. On these specific days, you can utilize a specific method to obtain more runs for each of the days that offer better rewards.&nbsp;&nbsp;To perform this, you simply need to enter the sector before reset, clear two times and stay inside the dungeon until after reset. After reset occurs, a message will pop up and the sector entries will be reset. You will be able to retry the sector and go in an additional 2 times for the higher value sectors instead of using your clears for other sectors which provide lower rewards.&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to timing daily reset for additional clears, a similar method can be performed for conquest cooldown. Conquest cooldown can be reset early and depending on the time left it will cost additional credits. Since the cooldown timer is not reset alongside the rewards and the reset credit cost is linked to cooldown time, this method can be used to provide a way to get unlimited rewards within the cooldown timeframe at a relatively low price. This method is very powerful especially for sectors with very long conquest cooldown, such as Beelzebub V2 for crafting phase wings and Asmodeus V2 sectors to craft Asmodeus full bodies which have a cooldown of 1 week.

<h3>Transitional Tuning Tips by 0kiki0</h3>&nbsp;Gearing is a long and complicated process, but one of the most important systems to get familiar with is Tuning. Platinum status can help immensely by raising the minimum tuning grade from C to B on most gear. Knowing how to approach Tuning in general is key to ensure that you are making the best usage of your resources. On non-best in slot(BiS) gear you can be more lenient with mediocre tunes, as you'll eventually replace them with gear more worthy of an investment. Items such as Guaranteed S Components, Equalizers, SS-C, etc. should generally be saved for current BiS gear. &nbsp;&nbsp;Tuning all of your gear to the ideal stat lines is one of the most important things to do. It's better to have an A or B grade tune on a relevant line rather than have an S grade tune on a useless line. You can see what to tune for on each gear piece by referencing the top TCP players of your respective class via the Rankings tab in the menu. Even though you should generally try to tune for S grade lines, sometimes that isn’t always realistic. You'll often run out of tuning count and have no more equalizers. As long as you have an A or B grade tune on a relevant stat, you'll generally be okay. In a scenario where you have to settle for less than S, you should be aware of what tunes are okay to have lower grades on. Using an S-C Component to preview the differences in stat values between tune grades is very helpful. &nbsp;&nbsp;TL:DR - Save those guaranteed S components for the strongest(BiS) gear! You'll be fine using A or B grade tunes for the most part on transitional gear.&nbsp; &nbsp;
