Episode 10 "The Blue-Eyes Devil"
Many people probably like this story the most.
By the way, the author saw this story in the anime and fell in love with SAO (laughs).
It was the "Aincrad Liberation Army" known for their hardliners who responded to the enemy search skill again.
The dark green cloak and heavy armor of the military made me remember an incident I was involved in before, and I couldn't help but frown.
"Are those... military guys?"
"But aren't they based on the first floor?"
“During the capture of the 25th floor, there was a great deal of damage…so now it’s divided into two guilds, the Aincrad Liberation Group and the Liberation Army, right?”
"... Ah. They are definitely an army known for their hardliners... but if I remember right now, they should be in the process of strengthening their organization."
In response to Kirito and Klein's questions, I agreed with Asuna, who confirmed the current military situation. when we talk like that
"Rest!!"
A person who seems to be a leader... Probably Kovats... As soon as he gave the command, the players immediately sat down.
Just like that, Kovats approached us,
"I am Lieutenant Colonel Kovats of the Aincrad Liberation Army."
"Kirito, solo."
Since he called himself that, Kirito responded as a representative.
“Are you guys already attacking the future?”
"Ah... the mapping up to the boss room is already done."
"Fumu... Then, I would like you to provide that mapping data."
"""!?"""
“…………”
While Kirito and the others were surprised by Kovats' unexpected request, I calmly watched the situation.
“Ta, you want me to give you information for free!?
"We distribute information and resources equally to general players! While maintaining order, we are fighting to release all players from this world as soon as possible!
Therefore, it is your duty to cooperate with us! ”
"You...!"
Asuna was about to object to Kovats' words, and Klein was about to put his hand on his sword.
Kirito controlled it with his hand,
"No way... anyway, it's the data I was thinking of releasing when I got back to town."
"I don't have any intention of doing business with map data... I don't think there's anything like this."
I agreed with Kirito's words and sent each mapping data to Kovats together with Kirito. Kovats who received it,
"Thank you for your cooperation"
After saying that, he turned his back. Turning to his back, Kirito warned.
"If you're going to mess with the boss, you better stop."
"I will judge that."
""!!"
Kirito and I were speechless at those words.
“I just saw the boss room!
“And… Your subordinates are already exhausted by now, aren’t they? ? ”
“My men!
Kobatz's angry voice makes me silent. As it was, I hung on to Kovats, who was trying to give instructions to his subordinates.
“Wait! Isn’t the boss here at a level where you can suddenly challenge and conquer!?
You, who continued to exploit the supplies in the first layer, can't do anything about it, right? ”
"Shut up! You'll never know unless you try!"
"No, I won't shut up! It may be your leader's order, but this is a suicide!!!"
To Kobatz's angry yell, I also shout out loud. No matter what I do, I can't let these people go, so I desperately tried to stop Kovats, but
"Come on, you phantom war demon! You're the one responsible for everything!"
"Huh...!?"
At Kobatts's words, my words stopped.
"If you hadn't insulted our army...that person, our army would have been able to push forward! You would have broken it all down!!"
“……………………”
Unable to object to those words, I remained silent. In the meantime, Kovats gave a command and went straight to the boss room.
“Oh, hey…Are you okay, Fong…?”
Klein was worried about me and called out to me.
"... Oh, it's okay, Klein."
"... Did something happen with the military?"
"...It's not a big deal. We just had a little trouble."
Because of Asuna's concern, I... lied. However, if I said that now, I would make them worry about Kirito in particular, so I decided to deceive them. In the heavy air, we rested for a while before resuming the exploration of the labyrinth.
"Is it really good, Kirito?"
"... Oh. It's over, Klein."
"Yes, but..."
We joined Klein and the others, Fuurinkazan, and decided to explore the labyrinth.
Klein seemed still concerned about what had just happened.
"... Damn, you're too good of a person, Kirito. Besides, why don't you go see what's going on... Those guys don't challenge bosses, do they?"
“…………As long as the commander is decent, I think it will be fine……”
…Maybe not. While agreeing with Klein's words, the novel...
Recalling the exchange from earlier, I thought that he would definitely want to challenge the boss.
If possible, I would like to jump out right now, but if I move here now, it will obviously become an unnatural action. There was... that was the time.
"Uwaaaaaaa!!!"
"... Damn!?"
"Let's go, Asuna!"
"No!"
"Oh, hey! Von... even Kirito!?"
Right after I heard the screams, I immediately ran to the boss room, Kirito and Asuna following me.
And when I arrived at the boss room, the door of the boss room was open, and the scene turned into hell.
The boss's HP hadn't even decreased by 30%, and in contrast, some members of the army had reached yellow HP.
"Hey! Hurry up and use the transfer crystal!"
"That's... you can't use crystals!?"
"...!"
"That's...!?"
“Crystal nullification space huh…!?”
Asuna and Kirito raised their voices in surprise at the soldier's words. ?
While we were stunned, things took a turn for the worst.
“Withdrawal is impossible for us liberation army!
"...!? Nope!!!"
Immediately, I tried to pull out the one-handed sword on my back in order to provide support, but……
“GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! ! ! 』
Before that, the boss's breath and a merciless blow with a large sword attacked the army members.
Thump!
A man rolled in front of us... Kovats.
Kobatz's HP decreased rapidly, and then...
"... Oh, that's impossible."
With a despairing expression on his face, Kovats, whose HP had dropped to 0... turned into a polygon and disappeared.
"Tsu... you idiot...!"
I muttered that unintentionally. Why... I was feeling uncontrollable resentment.
However, the boss didn't stop moving and tried to get his next prey, and the situation was moving to the next development.
"No... no, no...! No more...!"
"Asuna...!?"
"No!!!"
““Asuna……!!””
Kirito and I chased after Asuna, who jumped out to stop the boss.
"Damn it, you can do anything!"
It seems that Klein and the others will also support us.
"Seeeeeeeeee!"
Asuna's blow hit the boss's back, but... despite the attack on the back, there was almost no damage.
Gleam Eyes swung his greatsword and attacked Asuna.
Asuna barely managed to dodge the blow with her razor blade, but was hit by a blow from her fist, causing her to lose her balance.
Kirito and I manage to block the boss's follow-up attack. In that moment, Asuna regained her balance, and Klein and the others went to the rescue of the army.
But... things weren't good. Since we and the boss are in the center, the army can't withdraw, and Asuna and Klein aren't suited to be tanks. It's a disadvantage, and the boss gradually pushes me... If this happens,
"Kirito!"
“Uh… Phone!?”
"Earn 10 seconds! In the meantime!"
"K, but... what is that!?"
“Are you hesitating!? Is it okay if we let Asuna and the others die here!?”
"... I understand. Please!"
I blasted the hesitant Kirito and concentrated on dodging the attack for 10 seconds.
"Fon-kun!" "Fon!"
Asuna and Klein also joined in as support, and when I managed to survive 10 seconds,
“Okay, good!…………Switch!”
Hearing Kirito's voice saying that he was ready, he flipped the boss's greatsword and switched positions with Kirito. ’, and immediately went to support Kirito.
“Star, Burst…………Stream!!!”
As it was, Kirito activated the dual-wielding 16-hit sword skill <Starburst Stream> and began carving into the boss's body. However, the boss also remained silent and tried to fight back against Kirito, but there was no way he would be killed...
“Let me do it!!!”
I used the fantasy sword 《Two-handed sword》 single-shot sword skill <Fall Ruin> to repel the attack of the boss. Just like that, when the stiffening was relieved, I fired a follow-up fantasy sword 《Two-Handed Sword》 8-hit sword skill <Quantum Count> from the side.
""Woooooooooooooo!!!!!!""
Just like that, me and Kirito are engrossed in swinging our swords. The boss attacks me and Kirito, but I ignore them and continue to attack. and……
“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa ──────────!!!!!!”
“GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! ? ! ? ! ? ! 』
Kirito's final blow pierced the boss, and along with the roar, the boss turned into a polygon and disappeared.
"Haa... Haa..."
"Oh, is it over...?"
Thump...!
"Ki-Kirito!?" "Kirito-kun!?"
Asuna and I hurriedly rushed over to Kirito, who had collapsed while still holding his sword.
Kirito woke up after a while. Perhaps she was relieved when Kirito woke up, Asuna was in tears.
"... Ah, Suna?"
"Kirito - kun……!"
“…………I’m sorry, I worried you.”
"...Are you okay, Kirito?"
"... Fon... How long have you been unconscious?"
"Just a few seconds."
Kirito replied to Asuna and me that he was fine, and asked how long it had been since the battle ended.
"Oh... are you awake, Kirito?"
"Klein... how many died?"
"... Kovats and two other people."
“Is that so…Is this the 67th floor since the 67th floor where there have been deaths from defeating bosses…”
"... You stupid bastard! If you die, you can't say anything about strategy!?"
Kirito's face distorted in sorrow at Klein's words.
I guess he was trying to change the atmosphere. Klein asked that question.
“By the way, Kirito.
At those words, Kirito and I looked at each other for a moment, nodded, and then decided to answer Klein's question. It's a useless atmosphere if I don't say it.
"...Extra skill 『Dual-wielding』."
"""Oh!!!"""
"... Seriously... then, what happened to Fon...?"
“Yeah… Mine is also the sword skill of the Extra Skill『Illusion Sword』.
Also, the high-speed conversion skill that I've been using a lot since before. That is also a Battle Skill of 『Illusion Sword』.」
"""Ohhhhh!!!""
Surprised voices echoed at Kirito's and mine's answers.
"So, what is the appearance condition!?"
"... If I knew it, it was published a long time ago. Before I knew it, it appeared in the skill column."
"... I'm the same as Kirito. From that point on, I only used some of my skills."
That's how we respond to Klein's words. Putting Kirito aside, I honestly didn't expect a unique skill to appear. Dual wielding seems to manifest in the player with the highest reaction speed, but...
“…neither of them is on the informant’s skill list. That means you have your own skills…unique skills, aren’t they?!
"... you know how the people around you will react."
“…I see.
Well, I'm a human, so I'm different.
"So, what are you going to do about activating the transfer gate on the 75th floor?"
"... I'll leave it to you. As expected..."
"Yes. Where's the phone?"
"... I'm tired too, can I leave it to you?"
"... I understand. Come on, you guys should go back quickly... Then report it properly and tell them so that this won't happen again!"
The military players obediently obeyed Klein's words, and after bowing to us, they returned with transfer crystals.
"Well then, let's go... Also, Kirito. I, whatever the reason, I'm glad that you're fighting to save someone... that's what..."
"... Klein"
“Besides, Fon… you were so cool, you moved without hesitation.”
“…Thank you, Klein.”
"Heheh... Alright, you guys are going!"
Saying that, Klein led Furinkazan and headed for Activate.
Kirito and I were left behind... Asuna, who was still crying, was clinging to Kirito's chest.
"...then I'll go home too."
"... Ah... Phone"
"yes……?"
Kirito stopped me when I tried to use the teleportation crystal.
"... I'm sorry, I got you involved."
"... don't worry about it. It was a good opportunity... well then."
In response to Kirito's words, I left the place gallantly.
the next day……
When I saw the morning paper, I was speechless.
"74th Floor Boss Capture! ! ! A combination explosion of a black swordsman and a phantom warrior! 』
"New skill, dual wielding! Fantasy sword! A 100 consecutive sword skill that exploded on the 75th floor boss! 』
"Who is the strongest seat? Dual wielding vs sacred sword vs fantasy sword! ! ! 』
No, no, it's too dramatized... Or rather, the last article is a feature article about me, Kirito, and Heathcliff. I often write articles like this. I wonder if this kind of gossip is so sought after...
I was drinking coffee (a green drink that tasted like that) when I got a message. The sender is Asuna, and of course the content is...
"The captain wants to talk to you. Can you come to the Knights of the Blood Oath today? 』
After all... I thought so, and I prepared myself.
Orientation Lord & Kirito, Unique Skill Announced for the First Time
By the way, this is a supplementary explanation... Argo has been aware of Ori unique skill for quite some time (see episode 6), but it has not been announced along with the high-speed transformation skill. I did. She is the source of the last gossip article about the Illusion Sword.
Also, Kirito and Fon share information about each other's unique skills in the field boss capture battle in episode 6.
Today, another episode will be posted at 18:00.
