After a few minutes of weaving through the mixed procession, a large stone staircase and an open gate were visible ahead.

After passing through that gate, you will finally reach the center of the world, the central city of Arun.

They looked up at the sky and saw that the World Tree looked like a huge wall.

Dada............

"It's Clyde, ah! really...... I didn't see you yesterday and thought you hadn't arrived yet!" Kirito saw someone in the distance and stepped forward to say hello.

"Ahh Clyde smiled wryly and pointed to a dozen people in the distance.

"Yo!" was Marda, who greeted first.

"You...... Hello. Seeing Marda's familiar smile, Kirito couldn't help but feel a little intimate (Klein's kind is disgusting).

"What about the kid who practices swords!I heard that you also play double swords, do you want to practice with me?" Musashi, who is a race of guard goblins, still has four knives hanging from his waist, and he heard Clyde say that Kiritto is good at two swords, and he doesn't have a chance to see it.

"Excuse me, ...... you are?"

"Musashi!Miyamoto Musashi!" Musashi posed.

"Ah............h

Is it really good to steal the names of historical celebrities in such a blatant way?

"Don't think about it, she is practicing first-class for two days in reality, so there is nothing wrong with calling Miyamoto Musashi. Clyde clapped his hands, interrupting Kirito and Lifa's thoughts.

"Original...... I see, that's ......" Kirito scratched her head, although she didn't like people who were entangled, but she always felt that if she agreed to this Musashi big sister's 'practice', she would probably die a miserable death!

And it's the same level as the one who was blood-tortured by Clyde!

"Kirito, this is Medea, the best support in our team. ”

"You...... Hello!" Medea bowed to Kirito in a reserved manner.

On the other hand, Medea chose the Water Spirits.

"Hello. ”

After getting to know everyone present, Lifa finally sensed that something was wrong.

"Why are they all girls!!?"

I couldn't bear to complain.

"I don't know.,In SAO, he's surrounded by girls.,And formed a guild called the Magical Girl Sentai Team.,The main members are all little girls like the magical girls of the anime......"

Saying this, the eyes of the two of them looking at Clyde became more and more strange, especially Lifa, who took two steps back.

"Perverted!"

Even though he didn't say it, Clyde could still feel the meaning in Lifa's eyes.

"Well~ Although I have a lot of children here, they have all experienced battles, and they have a very high warrior quality~ At least mentally, they are much stronger than Kirito. ”

"Eh, those girls, they're going to war, too?" Hearing Clyde's words, Lifa immediately thought of a group of girls fighting the enemy in a war-torn city.

"Well, let's just sort of it, that's why I came to play this game, but like Kirito, they are very emotional when they fight, except for a few who have been through a hundred battles, the others········ You and Kirito should have discovered it too, right?"

“··········”

Indeed, during the time she was fighting side by side with Kirito, her expression when she fought was very emotional compared to the players in this world, as if she would really die if she didn't fight hard.

"That's the aftermath of SAO, and you don't usually see anything, but if you're playing a game, people won't joke with you, and it's as if she's going to break up with you if she dies once. ”

"Hey, is it necessary to say it so absolutely?!" Kirito, who was accused of scolding Huai, finally couldn't help but speak.

"Of course it's necessary, I've written down what you look like every time you fight, distorted······"

"What?!, you perverted !!"

“·······” Not far away, Skaha, who was standard with the 'Fire Elf', watched this scene speechlessly.

Isn't it a little childlike?Skaha feels that after coming to this game world, his enthusiasm for graduating from the world has been ignited a little.

Raiders World Tree······

"Interesting~!"

"By the way, Kirito, haven't you noticed yet?" Clyde pointed to Lifa behind Kirito.

！！！！！！

Lifa, who had planned to hide it to the end, instantly felt her hairs stand on end, and when she saw Clyde's appearance preparing to speak, the ominous premonition in her heart became stronger and stronger.

"Found what?"

"Lifa is your sister Naoba. ”

“···········” Kirito's head instantly turned around like a machine.

Pitch-black pupils stared straight into Lifa's eyes. The light in his pupils swayed like the moon on the water, and then—

“····· Xiao Nao?Naoha?!"

"Sister······ Sister ·····" Naoha, who was said to be broken, replied stiffly, and that timid appearance was exactly the same as her sister's expression when she looked at herself when she was in trouble!

"Ah·········h Kirito opened his mouth wide, then glanced at both Clyde and Naoha.

"Clyde!?When did you find out?!"

"At the beginning~ Wasn't it me who guided you to meet Naoba at that time!" Clyde showed a hearty smile, but this smile was full of intrigue and pleasure in Kirito's eyes.

"The country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change!" Kirito roared through gritted teeth.

Originally, he had been cheated by Clyde countless times in SAO, but when he came here, he thought he would be a little more restrained, but he didn't expect to pit her from the beginning!

"That······ Sister ·······"

Now that it has been revealed, there is no need to continue to hide it.

"Xiao Zhi, I think you should know who that person is, right?"

"Is it Sister Asuna?"

"Hmm······· At the top of this world tree, in the photos taken by the players who went up to the Arhat mentioned earlier, Asuna's figure was vaguely seen, if she was imprisoned in the game world, then opening this world tree would save her, right?"

"On the other hand, Kirito, if you see the culprit, remember to stay, this guy in my family hates 'trampling on other people's reserves and beliefs for fun'~" As he spoke, Clyde pointed to Musashi behind him.

"Aha······" Musashi scratched his head in embarrassment.
