Episode 12 "ALO Unification Duel Tournament Part 1 Phantom Demon Vs Black Swordsman"

 Most of you must have wondered...the main

character or the main character...which one is stronger?

In a way, I wanted to write this, so changing the chronological order is one of the reasons. I hope

you can see it with your own eyes.




Episode 12 "ALO Unification Duel Tournament Part 1 Phantom Demon Vs Black Swordsman"

10 days after capturing the Sleeping Knights and the 29th floor...

Around the middle of February, I was working at my blacksmith shop.

 

"... ok... no problem!"

 

After inspecting the weapons and armor, I stored everything in my storage and stood up with all my heart...

It was an event that was announced a week ago.

 

 

 

 

1 week ago...

 

"Unified Duel Tournament huh..."

“Yeah! Hwon will also be participating, right?”

 

After finishing the quest, I was taking a break while drinking tea at Kirito's log house...

Hearing Yuuki's words jump in, I put down my tea and decided to listen to what he had to say.

 

The Unified Duel Tournament is a player-sponsored Duel Tournament, and since it's a tournament to determine the strongest player in ALO, it seems that many players are planning to participate in it.

 

Not only Kirito and Asuna, who heard the story, but also Leafa and Klein seemed to be participating in the battle, and it was exciting.

…So, Yuuki throws the story away, and the story goes back to the beginning.

To whom are you explaining this...?

 

"Hmm..."

"... won't you come out?"

"I'm a little lost... I'm interested, but it looks interesting to watch it."

"...Hey, Fon...do you remember that promise?"

"A promise? Could it be a rematch...?"

"yes"

 

When I asked him to confirm the correct answer to Yuuki's question, it seemed that he was correct.

 

"If your motivation doesn't go up, can you fulfill your promise to me there?"

"...got it"

"... no good, huh?"

"Do you get it"

"Really?... I did it!"

 

Seeing Yuuki's sulking expression, I agreed.

 

(... isn't it too small, I...)

 

Seeing Yuuki's happy face, I came up with a suggestion.

 

"Hey, Yuuki."

"what?"

"If I win, I have something I want to talk to you about... will you listen to it?"

"...is it useless now?"

"... Ah. Beating Yuuki... I think I can talk about it only when I win."

"...I understand. Is it a promise?"

"Oh"

 

I confidently replied to Yuuki's defiant smile .

 

(My face isn't bright red, is it me...!?)

 

I was desperate because I pretended to be a poker face.

I desperately made a face so that Yuuki wouldn't understand my true intentions.

Apparently Yuuki didn't notice my true intentions.

 

"Then we'll win in the final!"

"Oi oi, the combination has not been decided yet..."

 

While thrusting into the quick-tempered Yuuki, I made a guts pose with my left hand behind me.

 

 

 

And then, on the day of the ALO Unified Duel Tournament...

After finishing the final inspection, I remembered what happened the other day while looking at the mirror in the blacksmith.

 

"... win... absolutely win"

 

This past week... I was only thinking about winning the tournament. I've spent the past week just to fulfill the promise I made to Yuuki.

 

(...win and... confess to Yuuki)

 

The trigger was the time of the previous trial quest.

 

"So... you haven't thought about marriage yet? "

"Go, I'm sorry! I heard something strange !? Forget it...! "

 

When Yuuki asked that question, I noticed that after seeing that expression.

 

(I like Yuuki...)

 

Seeing Yuuki smiling makes me happy too.

 

When Yuuki disappeared, I felt a sense of loss.

 

Yuuki's one-sided apology made me go mad.

 

I don't know when... My actions started to center around Yuuki.

 

After that reunion on the 22nd floor, I enjoyed going on adventures with her, being with her.

Now that I think about it, I think that our meeting in Aincrad was also fate (...that might be an exaggeration, but). If I had to force myself to say it, I wouldn't be able to just leave her alone... I thought I couldn't just leave her alone, even though she had what could be called the strongest ability in ALO.

 

"...Alright, let's go!"

 

Motivated, I left the blacksmith.

 

 

 

 

The Colosseum where the tournament will be held... I was looking at the tournament table there.

 

(Different block from Yuuki... won't he make it to the finals?

Leafa and Asuna are also in separate blocks, huh... This block is full of strong enemies, but the number one enemy is...)

 

I checked the tournament schedule for the West block where Yuuki was, and I was staring at the name of the player I would face in the East block finals... the name of my biggest rival.

 

(Of all things, Kirito will be the block finale...)

 

He is undoubtedly the toughest opponent to fight against...

Still, I can't afford to lose, absolutely!

 

Bashi!

"Ouch!"

"What are you doing, you..."

“Shi, Sinon…!?”

 

While I was concentrating, I was hit on the head from behind, and when I unintentionally turned around, there was Sinon with a scornful look.

 

"Damn, everyone's already gathered! When I went to look for them, they were mumbling while looking at the tournament table... Are you okay?"

"Oh, oh... were you mumbling that much?"

“Yes.

"II see... it's bad."

 

That Sinon is pulling... it seems like it was a lot. I had no choice but to sincerely apologize.

 

"For now, let's go!"

"Oh"

 

Following Sinon's words, I decided to go where everyone was.

 

 

 

Then the tournament began.

 

I continued to win the first and second rounds smoothly. Kirito and Yuuki from the west block had also won.

 

In the third round of the western block, Asuna and Leafa, Yuuki and Klein. Even though Leafa put up a good fight with an attack from the air, Asuna, who has more experience in combat, defeated Leafa. Let's just say Klein did a good job.

 

And we won the 3rd round, the block semi-finals...

 

"As expected, it's you... Kirito."

"Yeah, but I had a feeling I'd be fighting you... Von."

 

Finals... Kirito, who had beaten Salamander General Eugene in the block semi-finals, and I faced each other at the match venue.

 

"Really? I don't like it."

"That's right... Now that I think about it, we're going to be friends for a long time."

"...From SAO to ALO ​​​​to GGO...I've fought with you in many games, but this is the first time we've fought together."

 

While pulling out the short trance "Magatsu no Miyazuchi", I muttered deeply.

 

"I wanted to fight you once.

I wonder how far my power can match yours...

And which one is stronger..."

 

Kirito laughed as he pulled out his beloved sword "Unity Walks" and replied.

 

"Now, let's begin! East block final!

Only those in the know will participate in the final, the legendary hero "Black Swordsman" Kirito! On the other hand, one of the strongest candidates who almost won that Absolute Sword, "Phantom War Demon" Fon! Now, which one will win ! _

 

"Kirito-san, please do your best!"

"I'm not losing, Kirito!"

“Do your best, Onii-chan!”

"Don't play a pathetic match, Kirito, Fon."

 

Along with the live commentary, I heard the cheers of Silica, Liz, Leafa, and Sinon.

Other than Sinon, I'm only cheering for Kirito... Are you crying?

 

"Hey, Von! Make Kirito cry!"

“Both of you, keep your spirits up!”

 

I heard Klein and Egil's cheers... Klein, aren't you holding a personal grudge?

 

"Now, the game is about to start! "

 

The countdown began with the live announcement.

At the same time, Kirito and I both prepared our weapons.

 

3, 2, 1...0

 

""Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!""

 

Together with Count, me and Kirito hit each other with weapons and passed each other. A full-power blow to each other caused a shock, causing a gust of wind around them.

 

"Shaaaaaaaaaa!"

“Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo”

 

From there, weapons crashed and sparks scattered.

Kirito saw my slash with super reflexes, and I blocked Kirito's slash with my spear, and the offense and defense continued without yielding an inch.

 

In order to break the stalemate, I used a spear single-shot sword skill <Sonic Charge> to counter it, and Kirito released a one-handed sword heavy single-shot sword skill <Vorpal Strike>. Sword skills clash, and we are blown backwards by knockback.

 

And then, with each other's HP reduced by 10%, we rebuilt our systems.

 

“Hey, Hwon… is this the end of the warm-up exercise?”

"... Oh, that's right."

 

I also smiled at Kirito's suggestion and answered.

Just like that, they manipulated each other's windows and changed their weapons.

I switch my main weapon to the one-handed sword ``Cross Survive'', sub-weapon to the dagger ``Mep Zamber'', and switch my armor to ``Bone Weave Sea Costume''.

Kirito also equipped with "Excalibur" as a sub-weapon and pulled out its blade.

 

"Come on, let's go fight, shall we?

'Illusion sword' or 'dual wielding'... which one is stronger?"

“Let's put it in black and white… von!”

 

Again, we hit each other with our weapons. From the Tsuba auction, it moved to a high-speed sword dance.

 

(As expected of Kirito... he doesn't have time to fight back!)

 

Even though he deals with two-handed attacks with a one-handed sword and a dagger, his counterattacks are cut off by Kirito's super reflexes, and if he counterattacks half-heartedly, he'll be counterattacked in no time. attack carelessly.

 

As I was thinking about how to counterattack, Kirito moved first.

I held up my swords in both hands and entered the sword skill activation motion .

A light blue light effect shot out from the swords in both hands, and Kirito shouted.

 

"Starburst Stream!"

"Huh!?"

 

Dual wielding 16-hit OSS <Starburst Stream>... I concentrate all my attention on it.

First, one-handed sword 7-hit sword skill <Deadly Shins>, dagger 5-hit sword skill <Infinite>, and one-handed sword 4-hit sword skill <Vertical Square> can be used in succession through skill connect, and managed to manage 16 consecutive hits.

Blown away by the attribute aftermath, we once again took some distance.

 

“Wow! Isn't it illegal to use that?”

"I'm sorry to say it... who was the one who registered the dual wielding sword skill as an OSS...!"

 

Kirito responded with a wry smile to my thrust.

I won't deny it, but... I was blaming myself that you were the one who started talking about it.

Due to the sword rush, the sword skill clash, and the explosion of the attribute aftermath, each other's HP had fallen below 50%.

 

"Come on, Font... let's settle this."

"Oh"

 

Saying that, Kirito once again entered the sword skill stance.

 

(That stance...)

 

I put the strength to grip the sword again in that movement and concentrate my consciousness.

 

(This is the critical moment!)

 

""Huh!?...HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!""

 

What Kirito unleashes... one of the countless traumas that we've seen in hell for OSS registration... a two-sword style 27-hit OSS <The Eclipse>.

 

(In order to prevent the high-speed 27 consecutive attacks...there is no choice but to exceed the limit! First...!)

 

Prevents the first attack with a 4-hit sword skill <Horizontal Square> fired with a one-handed sword.

However, Kirito's barrage continues. Handle it with the dagger double-hit sword skill <Round Accel> and the one-handed sword four-hit <Vertical Square>.

 

(not yet...!!)

 

Illusion sword "dagger" 8-hit sword skill <Chrono Edens>, illusion sword "One-handed sword" 8-hit sword skill <Cross Bullet> are released one after another. His body and brain were screaming because he used skill connect to fire high-level fantasy sword skills from an unreasonable posture.

 

““Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!””

 

And then, Kirito's final blow and my final blow...the dagger single-shot sword skill <Rapid Bite> clash.

The collision of sparks and energy creates a gust of wind around it.

 

"Ooooooooooooooooooo!!!"

 

It was Kirito's blow that controlled the clash.

Along with the roar, the final blow blew me away along with the weapon.

I let go of my weapon with that momentum, crashed into the ground, and rolled.

 

“This is the last one!!!!!”

 

Kirito, who had recovered from his stiffness, unleashed <Vorpal Strike> and came to decide the match at once. Without a weapon, I...

 

"Not yet!!!!!"

 

I removed the large skull object on my right shoulder from my armor, held it in my right hand, and thrust it in.

Just like that, he activated his sword skill and countered Kirito's blow.

 

A one-handed sword and a gauntlet... The second collision created another shock wave.

 

Paky!

“W-What is this!?”

"Sorry, Kirito...this is how I win!!!"

 

A crack appeared in Kirito's one-handed sword, and Kirito was shaken.

I, who was aiming to destroy the weapon, smiled and put more power into my gauntlets.

 

(Bring me the Skull Heart...!)

"I can't lose... I can't lose!"

 

As it is, he smashes Kirito's "Unity Walks" and throws his back into Kirito.

 

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!”

 

As it is, the true power of the sword skill is demonstrated.

Illusion Sword 《Gauntlet》 Super Heavy Single Shot Sword Skill <Zero Bar Fair Dump> This sword skill is an interpersonal specialized sword skill that attacks the opponent with a pile bunker 2 seconds after a direct hit . my fist.

Kirito was blown backwards, and as soon as he collided with the wall, an elemental aftermath exploded.

 

"That far! ----- Winner, Von! The winner of the East Block is Mr. Huong from "Mugen no Senki"!!!! "

 

Kirito's HP was reduced to zero and he was in the state of Remain Light, and when I raised my battered gauntlets in the sky with only a dot worth of HP left, I heard the commentator's victory declaration.

 

All that's left now is to win the finals!

 

 

 

 

Next time: SAO ~Phantom War Demon~

 

"Fon, don't lose!"

“Yuki, do your best!”

"ALO's strongest player is now decided! Which one will grab the strongest seat!? 

 

(It's fun...!) (It's fun...!)

 

"Now, Yuuki... this is my full power!"

"Yeah! ... it's a match, Fong!"

 

"Marginick... Stella Phantom!!!"

 

"ALO Swordsmanship Tournament Part 2 Promise of Two! Phone Vs Yuuki! "

From here on, it's our stage!

 




[Sword Skill Commentary]
Illusionary Sword "Dagger" 8 Consecutive Strikes Sword Skill <Chrono Edens>
Transforms into an 8 consecutive hits at high speed along with steps. The origin of the name of the technique is that the movement looks like an angel dancing.

Illusion Sword 《One-Handed Sword》 8 Strikes Sword Skill <Cross Bullet>
A sword skill that unleashes a high-speed 4-strike after 4 strikes of diagonal cross, horizontal cut, and vertical cut. After 8 consecutive hits, a crest with a cross and an oblique cross will appear.

Illusion Sword "Gauntlet" Super heavy single-shot sword skill <Zeroibah Fair Dump>
Gives a powerful blow to the opponent with the equipped gauntlet, and attacks with a pile bunker with an aura at a time lag. The original story is "Skull Head Knuckle Guard" dual-

sword 16-hit OSS <Starburst Stream>
One of the dual-sword skills that existed in SAO.
There are some changes in motion when reproducing as OSS in ALO. The motion conforms to "Lost Song".

Two-sword style 27 consecutive hit OSS <The Eclipse>
One of the two-sword style sword skills that existed in SAO.
There are some changes in motion when reproducing as OSS in ALO. The motion conforms to "Lost Song".

So, it was a victory for Ori.

By the way, from the author's point of view, Kirito's ability is superior in terms of experience and reflex speed.
However, I think that Phong is one step above when it comes to turning heads and making

plans.This time, the result was that Huong's strategy, which had decided on the tactics from the beginning, was fitted.So

, next time it will be Von Vs Yuuki.
The third match between the two... who will win?
And will Hwon's confession succeed? ?

stay tuned!
