While Clyde was waiting for the others to log in, Kirito and Lifa also temporarily logged out, just because Lifa was actually his sister.

After everything was said and done, Kirito felt that he had an embarrassment when he faced Naoba, which he didn't even notice.

And this embarrassment, in the eyes of their parents······

Maybe it's a closeness that I haven't seen in years, right?

And Kiritani and Night-

In addition to having no impression of her biological parents at all, the attitude of the Kiriya Fengsong/Cui couple towards Kazuya has not changed at all after telling her the truth, so it can be said that there is no external impact.

But there is still a strange feeling that sprouts and takes root in Kazuya's heart.

That is, when facing someone, there will be a question in my heart, "Who is this person?"

Even if she has known someone for a long time and knows her very well, it should be said that even when facing her family, she often has this kind of thought.

Thinking, "Who the hell is this?" and do I really know this person?]

Maybe this strange feeling is one of the reasons why Jean and Night are developing online games.

Because the game character that is contacted through the Internet must have another face.

No one really knows each other's things. It's under this premise that everyone communicates.,It's a hypocritical world to say.,But it's a pretty comfortable place for Kazuya.。

She had been addicted to online games since she was in the fifth or sixth grade of elementary school, and she had been immersed in the world that would soon have led her to two years of solitary confinement.

The world called "Sord Art Online" is the best ideal place for Waya as long as there are no rules for the death game. It is a false dream that will never wake up, and an imaginary world that will never end.

In that world, she played someone named Kirito.

However, the anomaly of a completely stealthy online game that could not be logged out soon after, despite Kazuya's wishes, let her directly learn a truth.

That is, whether it is a real world or an imaginary world, the essence is actually the same.

This is because the human brain understands the world by processing the information received by the five senses. The reason why online games can become a world of hypocrisy is only based on the fact that you can get out of it at any time after turning off the power of the console.

The world that the brain knows when it receives electronic pulse waves and cannot be accessed.

It's basically the same as the real world.

When she noticed this, Kazuya finally realized that the questions that had been bothering her since she was ten years old were really boring.

There's no point in worrying about who the other person really is. We just have to believe and accept others. The person we know is actually his truest appearance.

Back in this world, the moment I first saw Naoba, Kazuya bluntly thought it would be nice to see her again.

In order to reclaim the years she had kept at her distance because of meaningless doubts, she decided to remove all barriers and treat her in the most direct way possible.

But I'm afraid that in the past two years, Naoba has also repositioned his understanding of himself. After knowing that I'm not really an older sister but a cousin (not much different, is it??), I'm confused by the sudden sense of distance, and then continue to explore how to get along with myself.

She always thought that she didn't know the truth, but she was actually the one who kept telling her the difference between us, right?

Naoba, who is obviously a computer idiot and hates games, should have started playing VRMMO for his own sake.

Naoba sneaked into the imaginary world in order to understand the world of my sister.,It took a long time to cultivate another self.。

The girl who saved herself several times in the world of Alpheim - she is the equivalent of Naoba in front of the night.

As for why she was the first player to meet after logging in, it was purely a guy with a bad personality who did it on purpose!

Of course, if it's because of the IP address, we're sneaking from the same house, so the IP location is exactly the same.

I am destined to meet with Lifa, even if I don't have Clyde's guidance, I guess I will move in the direction where Lifa is at that time, right?

Kazuya closed his eyes hard, then snapped and quickly opened them, and then stood up with his feet.

I'm going to do what I can for Naoba.

Stretching out your hands when words can't fully express your feelings is something that many people in the SAO world have taught me by example.

As for the pleasure that Clyde taught himself·······

Forget it.,That kind of thing just treats the enemy.,If you say to your own sister.,Maybe you'll be treated as a gay pervert who predicates it on your own sister.。

And Naoba, after talking to his sister, suddenly had a clear idea.

Looking at a glittering crown in front of her, she reached out and picked it up and put it on her head.

The faint sunlight that descends from the slightly cloudy sky gently illuminates the quaint streets of Arune.

Kirito is not visible at the login location. After checking the map, it was revealed that the plaza in front of the Dome is located on the south side of the World Tree, and there is a large terrace for events on the north side.

She was there for the time being discussing the World Tree with Clyde, while also waiting for reinforcements from both races.

Even though I've been here, I'm honestly embarrassed by Lifa.

In addition to not knowing what to say, I can't predict what my sister will say to herself, after all, my sister has always been so peaceful in her heart, but her personality in the game seems to be another person.

After taking a few steps in silence, Lifa sat down on a bench in the corner of the square.

After a few minutes with his head down. Suddenly, she noticed that someone had landed in front of her. Lifa reflexively tensed her body, then closed her eyes.

But it was an unexpected figure who called Lifa's name.

"It's really~~ I've been looking for you for a long time, Lifa!"

The familiar voice that felt unreliable but full of spirit resounded throughout the space. After Lifa raised her head in surprise, a young man of the Wind Elf with yellow-green hair appeared in front of her.

“…… Ray, Regan?"

Lifa looked stunned at the unexpected face and asked him directly why he was here.

As a result, Regan crossed his hands on his hips, puffed out his chest proudly, and said: "Oops - I took advantage of Sigroot to relieve his paralysis when he left the sewers and then poisoned the two fire elves and escaped, I originally decided to let Sigroot eat the poison but he was no longer in the territory of the wind elves, and I also advanced towards Arun when I had no choice, and when I was targeted by active attack monsters, I dragged them to others, and I kept repeating the same action before I finally crossed the mountains, and when I arrived here, it was already around noon today." It took me a whole night!"

“…… You're MPK (note: short name for Monster Player Kill. That is, using monsters to kill other players) ......"

"Don't worry about that little thing at this time!"

Reagan didn't care about Lifa's accusations at all, and sat down directly against her with a happy face. It was then that he had doubts about the fact that Lifa was alone, and began to look around and asked, "Where are the two guard elves?

"No, I'm just here to relax. ”
