Episode 4 "Yuuki vs Asuna"
So, here we are, a small island on the 24th floor.
It's a digression that I came here while admonishing the female members for being angry with Kirito and Asuna who were flirting before coming here.
By the way, when I messaged Yuuki that I was going to take Asuna with me tomorrow...
"For real! Yay ! I 'm looking forward to tomorrow! "
I received a message with great expectations.
So, what we came to was exactly the scene where the previous player who was challenging gave up.
Yuuki was sending V-signs of victory to everyone around him, but he noticed me and gave me a V-sign as well. I lightly waved my hand in response.
“Wait, Liz… Is Absolute Sword a girl!?”
"Didn't I tell you...?"
(Oh, come to think of it, I didn't say that)
Averting my eyes from Asuna who was courting Liz, I secretly tried to distance myself...
"Maybe... the reason why Kirito-kun and Fon-kun lost or surrendered..."
(J――――――――――――――――――――!!!)
…It looks like it was circumnavigated…A stray bullet came flying.
"No. There was a little trouble between me and Zetsuken, and we promised to start again...
I don't know about Kirito, but..."
"Huh!? (Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom!!!) No! Just because you're a girl doesn't mean you've taken it easy...! Really, seriously... from the middle."
I calmly denied it, and Kirito, who was stared at by Asuna's jealous eyes, shook his head with all his might and denied it... On the contrary, it was a way of denying that was full of suspicion...
"Um, is there anyone you'd like to fight next?"
Asuna, who had been pushed by Liz, stepped forward at Yuuki's call. Yuuki saw that and made eye contact with me. I nodded in response to that question.
“I see…is it possible that your sister is Berserk Healer-san?”
"Eh... that's what they call me, but I wonder if I should stop calling them that way..."
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... then, sister... do you want to do it?"
"...Yeah, can I ask you something?"
"OK!"
Yuuki snapped his fingers in response to Asuna's reply. From there, the rules were confirmed and the duel count was displayed. Both draw their swords and the place becomes quiet.
... 3, 2, 1, 0 ...
Asuna was the first to set it up. Even though she launched a series of high-speed thrusts, Yuuki easily dodged them and quickly approached Asuna. Yuuki threw a blow at Asuna, who was surprised and lost her balance. Avoid a fatal injury, Asuna grazed her chest.
(Even so... Asuna is Asuna, but Yuuki is also really talented.)
It was the same with the previous duel, but when you look at Yuuki's ability after the fight, you can really see how strong he is.
Thinking about that... Asuna's mood changed... No, should I say she's returned to the girl who was called "Flash" in SAO...
Asuna attacked again... the blow was different from the one before, it was at the level of knocking back Yuuki's sword and creating a shock wave around him. From there it was a high-speed rush that didn't yield to each other .
Fighting with swords and sword skills... It was a battle while shaving off each other's HP, but it was Asuna who came out first. She shot Yuuki in the palm of her hand from the competition.
From there, he unleashes a four-hit sword skill <Quadraple Pain>, but...
Like me, Yuuki handled it perfectly.
It was the OSS <Mother's Rosario> that was fired at Asuna who was frozen. Her slashes are carved into Asuna's body, but Asuna unleashes OSS <Starry Tear> without losing.
And then, Yuuki's 11th attack hits Asuna...
"... what happened...?"
Yuuki's final blow caused a blast that blocked the sight of everyone present.
When the blast subsided and I turned my attention to the plaza, there was Asuna with a surprised expression on her face and Yuuki who had stopped the 11th consecutive attack.
Apparently, it was adjusted so that the 11th consecutive hit would not hit.
“Yeah! It was just as Hwon said! I decided on my sister!!”
"Eh... Eh!?"
He had an expression that he didn't understand what Yuuki said.
"Ah, um... how did the duel end?"
"I'm satisfied if I fight this much. Do you want to go to the end, Onee-san?"
"... (fluff)"
Asuna shook her head at Yuuki's words and answered. Then...
"yes!"
“Eh… hey, wait a minute!?”
Yuuki's outstretched hand must have been mistaken for a handshake... Asuna took his hand and flew away as Yuuki took him... Now then...
“Wait a minute, Asuna!?”
“Is this the same as Mr. Fong's time?
“Fo, Mr. Fong is not here!?”
Lyfa and Silica, feeling deja vu, looked for me with Liz panicking next to me.
Then, using transition crystals, the layers were moved. The destination is of course... the 27th floor where the Sleeping Knights are.
"Already! If you knew the circumstances, tell me first, Fon-kun!"
"Sorry. I also wanted Asuna to fight without that sort of thing."
After being briefed on the circumstances of the Sleeping Knights, I parted ways with Yuuki and the others, and as I headed towards the central teleportation gate with Asuna, Asuna puffed out her cheeks and thrust me in.
When they saw me with the Sleeping Knights, they had a nice reaction.
"Even so, it's a one-party boss attack..."
“Is the blood of the demon of strategy making a fuss for the first time in a while?”
"...Fon-kun?"
"Excuse me"
...I think I was teasing a little too much. Any more is dangerous.
"Now... Come to think of it, you were the first to be scouted, weren't you? Why did you refuse?"
"... That's right. I'm just an avant-garde."
"····What do you mean?"
At my words, Asuna tilted her head curiously.
“I think Asuna knows, but my fighting style is completely avant-garde, right?
Of course, he can use magic to some extent, but if anything, he's more of an avant-garde type...or rather, he's the type to fight using weapons, right ?
"Yeah, that's right."
"...I'm just a shortstop, commander...not a strategist."
"... I see. Considering the capture by one party, strategy is more important than strength."
"Oh"
Asuna easily understood my intentions.
It's easy... I can certainly use a variety of weapons, but that means I can fight in any position, not command. Even if I could move flexibly, I can't read the big picture and move the strategy.
In that respect, Asuna is not only a vanguard, but also has the command ability she cultivated as a vice-leader during her time in SAO. It was the same with the previous boss battle on the 24th floor. I thought Asuna was the better choice.
"Wow... we're getting a ton of messages from everyone."
That's what I was thinking as I glanced at Asuna, who was flustered by the worrying message from her comrades.
By the way, I got a message too... but I can't open it because I'm afraid of what's inside.
That was when...
"...!?!?!?"
“Asuna!?”
My body suddenly stiffened, and Asuna was about to fall, so I hurriedly supported her.
I called out, but there is no response at all. I held Asuna in my arms and hurried to the 22nd floor.
"Kirito, is Yui-chan here!?"
“Fo, Fon!? Where the hell… Asuna!?!?”
I flew to the 22nd floor and headed for Kirito's log house at full speed .
Kirito was surprised, but from my appearance and Asuna's condition, he seemed to notice something strange.
"He suddenly collapsed! I called him out and he didn't respond at all! I thought Yui-chan would understand something...!"
“Right now, I'm going for a walk with Liz.
Kirito rushed outside with haste.
Anyway, I thought I had to put Asuna down, so I laid her down on the sofa.
Then,
"Mama!!"
“Fon, I brought you!”
Yui-chan, who was being held by Kirito who came back really quickly, rushed over to Asuna.
“Yui-chan, what about Asuna?”
"II'm going to check it now!!"
Yui returned to her pixie form, closed her eyes, and touched Asuna.
“A, Asuna!?” “A, Asuna-san!?”
“Calm down…! Yui-chan is watching right now.”
Liz and the others also came back out of breath. At my words, the three of them held their breath and looked at Yui-chan. Then, as if it was over, Yui left Asuna.
"Yu, Yui... what about Asuna?"
"... it's okay... I think I logged out and suddenly collapsed because my consciousness returned to the real world."
““““……Haaaa……”””””
Everyone lost their strength at Yui-chan's words.
“But is it possible that you were suddenly logged out?”
"In Mama's case, it seems that the line was cut off."
"Disconnect...?"
Yui answered my question.
"Oh! Maybe... it's dinner time, so my family cut me off."
"...got it"
Lyfa's words reminded me of the last meeting.
Even at that time, when dinner time was approaching, I hurriedly logged out.
"Anyway, I'm glad it wasn't important."
"Oh... I'm sorry, Fong."
"No...then I'll fall soon."
I shook my head in response to Kirito's words of thanks and was about to leave.
Gashi!
He grabbed my arm as hard as I could... When I turned around, Liz was holding my arm with a terrible grin on her face. Behind him, Lifa and Silica were standing with the same expressions on their faces.
"So... you and Asuna... why were you guys taken away by Zetsuken-san?"
"Isn't it fine if you tell me about it soon? Is it fun to keep secrets all the time?"
"And... how ignoring our message...isn't it terrible, Pina?"
···Why is it so! ? In terms of status, I should be able to shake off Liz's arm...! ?
In contrast to my arm, which does not move at all, Liz's arm possesses a mysterious power.
My arm, why don't you move !
I tried to ask Kirito for help, but... to Yui-chan.
"You shouldn't look at Yui."
"Eh, why?"
I blindfolded myself so that I wouldn't be able to see that scene. It seems that no one is on my side... I gave up and decided to honestly answer the three questions... I sat in seiza for 3 hours. ..
Next time: SAO ~Phantom War Demon~
“If it wasn't a PK, what was the purpose of covering it up?”
"Then put away your weapons!"
"It's this guild, but... there's a nasty rumor about it."
"I'm sorry, but from here onwards..." "It's closed...!"
"Knock out the large guild! "
From here, the next notice will be ignored in order.
I would be happy if you could guess what kind of rider it is from the title.
By the way, "My arm, why don't you move!?" is a Gundam joke.
That scene was one of the author's favorite scenes in Gundam, so I was shocked (laughs)
