Episode 3 "The Battle of the 22nd Floor of Memories"
January 6th
New Aincrad 22nd floor Kirito's log house
There were only three days left in the winter vacation, so we got together and did our assignments for the winter vacation.
Asuna, who had just returned from her family's home, joined me, and I sat beside my friends as they worked on their homework.
Eh, homework...? I finished it all by the end of the year.
…So, if there was something I didn't understand, I was in charge of teaching each person … but,
"... suu... suu..."
"You're comfortable sleeping."
“Since you came back from GGO, it seems like you've been working hard.”
"That's right, Yui-chan, whom I saw at Agil's shop the other day..."
Led by Kirito, who was sleeping comfortably, the place was about to be attacked by drowsiness.
Even I, who didn't attend the year-end party, knew about Kirito's blueprints once.
"You're somehow Nyx, aren't you?"
""Mechatronics""
"A, ahaha...that's right."
Lifa's outrageous words unintentionally made Asuna, Liz and Tsukkomi suffer.
(Well, that's right... this is a house that both Kirito and Asuna have feelings for.)
Looking at Kirito sleeping comfortably with Yui-chan and Pina, I remembered that time.
December 24th
A Floating Castle in the Sky of the Earth Fairy Territory: New Aincrad
The 21st to 30th floors were released due to the large-scale update that took place that day.
Immediately after that, breaking through the labyrinth at high speed, we were challenging the boss <The Lost Technology Golem> who defended the 21st floor.
Due to the attack that made use of the giant and the ground-shaking general attack, the dealers were not able to get close, but when Asuna and the other mages created a gap, they used their sword skills to deal great damage. I also deal damage with my one-handed sword skill, but as expected, the boss monster... it doesn't fall easily.
At such times,
"Haaaaaaaa!"
Asuna, who was in the rear guard, launched a fierce attack on the boss. Rapier 8-hit sword skill <Star Splash>. Even though it was a clean hit, the boss' eyes suddenly began to shine.
Asuna was stiff and unable to move, but Sinon released a supporting fire from behind... Bow Sword Skill <Explode Arrow>, blocking the attack.
“Asuna, just a little bit more! Good luck!”
"Asuna, let's go!" "I'll decide!"
"Papa, Mr. Fong! A punch attack is coming!"
"Oh!" "Understood!"
With Sinon's cheers, Asuna stood up. In order to pave the way, I jumped out with Kirito. Following Yui-chan's instructions, we each activated our sword skills.
Along with the boss's attack, Kirito unleashed a one-handed sword single-shot sword skill <Vertical>, and I released a fantasy sword <one-handed staff> heavy single-shot sword skill <Negil Impact>.
His arm could not withstand the blow and finally broke.
and
""switch!!""
"Haaaa!"
Asuna's top-ranked sword skill <Flashing Penetrator> pierced through the boss's body.
Just like that, the boss's body collapsed, and the letters "Congratulations" floated in the air.
Leaving behind the raid members who were delighted with their victory, we headed for the 22nd floor at full speed.
When I climbed the stairs from the boss room, the view that spread out before me was the same view as the 22nd floor.
“Asuna! I will activate the 22nd floor, so go ahead!”
"···!Yes, thank you!"
At Liz's words, Asuna took Kirito and Yui and flew away.
After a while, everyone was delighted when they received a message that they had successfully bought that log house.
"Hey, Asuna-san! I'm sleeping! Oh, even Liz-san...!"
Lyfa's words brought me back to myself.
Apparently, most of the members were invited by Kirito's sleeping face.
At Asuna's suggestion, we decided to take a break and enjoy a cup of tea.
We went outside to wake up. Silica and Leafa were looking at the night sky .
"Speaking of which, Asuna, have you heard about Zetsuken?"
"Zeh... Ken...? Is this a new rare item or something?"
"Zetsuken is the nickname of a certain player. Perhaps it's because of the meaning of an absolutely invincible sword, it's called Absolute Sword."
In response to Asuna's question, I gave the correct information.
By the way, when I asked Yuuki about the origin of his name, it seems that people around him had called him that before he knew it .
"So... what kind of person is that Zetsuken-san?"
“About a week ago, the rumors began to circulate…”
“Asuna has been with my parents in Kyoto since the end of the year.
"... Ugh, I'm begging you, don't remember bad things..."
Asuna looked fed up with what Liz and I said.
"No, no... my cousin's daughter is also having a hard time."
"It was really hard...sitting on your knees all day in a kimono and doing nothing but greeting..."
"That's right... at a company party, it's mostly a social greeting from the meeting... the unfamiliar formal dress makes your shoulders stiff, and the air is heavy..."
"When I try to dive secretly at night, there is no wireless LAN in the detached room where I stayed..."
“I wonder when in the world that people didn't even connect to the internet in the first place…”
"...why are you getting dark too, von..."
…Asuna's words involuntarily reminded me of my father's party at work the other day, and even I became depressed.
"...in addition..."
"...Asuna?"
Perhaps because she remembered something unpleasant, Asuna's expression had sunk.
It seems that you didn't even hear my call.
“Asuna… Asuna, are you listening?!”
"Eh... Oh, I'm sorry... I just remembered something unpleasant..."
"Hey, what's that? Did you get to do a matchmaking by any chance?"
“No, no, no!
(This happened, absolutely...)
After hearing Asuna's reaction, I shoved what I didn't want to say further down my throat.
"...So? When you say you're strong, does that person specialize in hunting players?"
"Uh-huh, I specialize in Duel."
“Anyone who participated in competitions?”
"No, she's a completely newcomer to ALO. She's a converted character from another game, so her skill numbers are quite high."
"... Hwon-kun, why are you so knowledgeable?"
As I took turns answering Asuna's question with Liz, such a question came up.
"Yeah. That's because me, Kirito, Liz, and Leafa have already fought Zetsuken. At that time, I also talked to Zetsuken."
“Did you fight…!?”
"Yeah... isn't there a sightseeing spot with a huge tree on the north side of the main block on the 24th floor?
He appears at the base of the tree over there at 3:00 pm every day, and fights against players who wish to attend one by one. At first, there was a post on the MMO Tomorrow bulletin board... About 30 players tried to beat it, but..."
"All the players were killed"
"II'll take my revenge...?!"
Asuna had an expression of disbelief.
Well, if it's Yuuki's ability, it might have been a natural result for him to take revenge, but...
"It's a bit unbelievable, isn't it? It's just converted, and it's so jumpy. It took me half a year to get used to aerial combat..."
“Did Silica-chan also fight?”
"No, I'm just a spectator... After watching the duel, I'm convinced that it's an opponent I can't beat... although everyone else was trying. It's a real challenger, isn't it?"
"... noisy"
"I've experienced everything..."
"Fufufu... Ah, snow..."
When I looked up at the sky after hearing Asuna's words, it started to snow.
We decided to finish our break and return to the log house.
While eating the fruit tart that Asuna made, we continued talking about Zetsuken.
"But if you show off your strength like that, isn't there already no one who wants to fight?"
"That's not true. The bets are outrageous!"
Silica answered while receiving the tart from Asuna.
“Heh~, are you betting on some kind of rare item?”
“It's not an item. I'm betting on OSS.
"OSS! What is it like...!?"
"It's a one-handed sword general-purpose OSS. It's an OSS that mainly uses thrusts, and it's a surprising 11 consecutive hits."
“Ju, 11 consecutive attacks…!?”
“Right now, the OSS that is said to have the maximum consecutive hits in ALO is General Eugene's two-handed 8-hit sword skill <Volcanic Blazer>.
Asuna seemed to understand my words, and nodded broadly.
"Did you actually see that sword skill?"
“Yes… ah, Mr. Fong actually took those 11 consecutive attacks, didn't he?”
Everyone's eyes focused on me after hearing Lifa's words in response to Asuna's question.
"Oh, so I knew what kind of OSS it was."
“Hee... Come to think of it, what is Zetsuken's race and equipment?”
"The race is Dark Fairy. The weapon is a one-handed sword, but it's a thin type like Asuna's rapier.
His fighting style is also speed type.”
"Speed type huh..."
"Yes... I also challenged him in an aerial battle...
It was a good match with both of us shaving our HP down to 60%, but our weapons were repelled... and our opponent only used default moves until the end."
"Even Leafa-chan can't do it...even more so, I don't think I have a chance...
That's right, how was Kirito-kun and Fon-kun? ”
"""..."""
"Eh... what happened...?"
At that question, the three girls grinned and looked at each other. Asuna, who didn't know anything about her, was confused.
"That's... I lost in a flashy manner, Onii-chan."
"... Eh? Eeeeeee!? I mean...! Kirito-kun's reflex speed...! Did Kirito-kun really fight?"
"... Eh, um... when asked if I was serious about such a high level, hey..."
At Liz's troubled face, everyone's eyes naturally gathered on me again.
“…I was serious about it.
"····What do you mean?"
Asuna tilted her head at my words.
"Kirito's seriousness is a two-sword style, isn't it?
However, since Kirito returned from SAO, most
You're not using dual wielding, are you?
I use a fantasy sword to some degree, but..."
"... Come to think of it, that's right."
"This is just my personal opinion, but I think it would be better if Kirito didn't really fight."
““““……………………””””
"Even in SAO, ALO, and GGO... when Kirito gets serious, that's when the VR world becomes the real world... I think so."
"Maybe so... maybe it's better not to do something that makes him take it seriously... he's just a troublesome constitution to get involved..."
"Yeah, that's right."
Asuna nodded deeply at Liz's and me's words.
"...So, you were talking about the fight against Absolute Sword...I think Kirito was fighting seriously...at least I don't think he took it easy or didn't go all out."
"I think so too... just something that bothers me..."
Lyfa agreed with my words and said so while putting her hand on her chin.
"Before the match was decided, when we got into a sword fight...onii-chan, I was talking to Zetsuken...after that, victory or defeat never...
Come to think of it, onii-chan, didn't you say something to Mr. Fong before the fight ?
"Yeah. I don't know what Kirito said to Absolute Sword, but he said to me... Absolute Sword is a child of the VR world..."
"...in the VR world"
"...a child...?"
Liz and Silica tilted their heads at my words, but Asuna seems to have read something.
“Come to think of it, how was Fon-kun? You used an illusion sword too, right?”
"Ah...that's..."
"...?"
I was suddenly turned over to talk, and I was at a loss for words as to how I should explain. Asuna looked at the other members curiously.
"Ummm... Mr. Fong, I almost won with the Absolute Sword..."
"Eh...? So, did Fong-kun lose too?"
"...it's not true, Asuna."
“…Mr. Fon started fighting on equal terms with Zetsuken in a two-sword style using a fantasy sword.”
“What's more, I defeated OSS in Absolute Sword with Skill Connect, and even though I was just a little bit away… I surrendered at the very end.”
"...eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!"
"...a, ahahahahaha..."
Liz, Silica, and Leafa's report made Asuna scream and look at me with a disbelieving expression.
"Why!?"
"Well, well... there are various things."
“Besides, before and after surrendering, Mr. Fong also talked about something with Zetsuken, right?”
...Mr. Leafa?
"Besides, after the match was over, I was taken away by Zetsuken and flew off somewhere..."
Ms. Lisbeth !?
"You said you only talked a little bit, but you didn't give me any details."
Even Silica !? I was in a cold sweat unintentionally at the informant from the female member.
I could explain it separately, but it's a hassle, or rather, it's less troublesome when Yuuki is with me...
"What were you talking about?"
「・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・」
"...it's something I can't say..."
...It's about you, Asuna-san... I couldn't even say it.
I can explain Yuuki's purpose if I tell them... but I don't want Asuna, who might fight Yuuki in the future, to know about it...
Thinking that, I kept silent.
"Well, it's fine... If Fon-kun won't talk to me, then I have no choice but to ask Zetsuken-san directly. I'm also curious about Kirito-kun."
"Oh, do you want to fight...?"
"I don't think I can win, but... I'm curious about that Absolute Sword..."
So, Asuna decided to challenge Yuuki to a match.
First of all, I feel relieved...
"Ah, no! I'm going to be late for dinner!"
"Then let's open today."
Asuna and Leafa started cleaning up, Silica and Leafa went to wake Kirito and the others.
"Hey, Liz, Fong-kun."
"Huh?" "What's wrong, Asuna?"
I was stopped by Asuna, who had a serious expression on her face, and wondered what had happened, so I answered.
"You said that Absolute Sword is a convert player, right? That's like what happened last time..."
“…Aren’t you a former SAO player?”
"... (cock)"
I understood what Asuna wanted to say and took over the words.
"We were curious too... I asked Kirito about it... and then..."
"Kirito said...if Absolute Sword was in SAO, he would have learned the dual wielding skill, not me..."
"···yes···!?"
Liz and I answered while looking at Kirito who was half asleep after being scribbled on by Silica and the others.
When I heard those words from Kirito, I couldn't believe it either.
And... that Yuuki who surpasses Kirito... I had a feeling that why she was so particular about defeating bosses in one party, and not just for commemoration.
Open your eyes for the next SAO
“Wait, Liz… Is Absolute Sword a girl!?”
"Didn't I tell you...?"
“I see…is it possible that your sister is Berserk Healer-san?”
“Yeah! It was just as Hwon said! I decided on my sister!!”
"Eh... Eh!?"
"Yuuki vs Asuna"
