'Fantasy' is not static, when it was invaded by Honkai and detached from the trajectory of the established story. Its development, evolution, and nature are not subject to any will. No one knows if the development will get better or worse.

Just like in SAO, the combat difficulty of monsters has become higher, and leveling is no longer easy and sacrifice-free, but it also makes the player's level rise and everyone unites, but it accelerates the pace of boss strategy.

Just as even when the enhancement of tasks, weapons, and skills has become extremely difficult, those familiar faces and familiar people can still overcome many difficulties and meet each other, is this fate, or the cruelty of fate?

Under the moonlight, a calm cool breeze passed. How much blood was buried at one time.

A young girl sits alone on a cliff with her eyes set out on the deep green field.

"Are you again, really trying to die?"

A cold voice came from behind for a moment, stirring up a hint of coldness in this cold night.

"I'm finally waiting for you!"

The girl turned around excitedly, not afraid of the terrifying figure in the mouth of others.

"Don't come here. ”

What reciprocated the girl's affection was the cold blade, and Poison Island was not moved at all, and her cold expression was even better than before.

The narrow blade, the cold edge, the deadly blade that resembles exquisite craftsmanship rests on the girl's slender jade neck.

"I'm not a good person in your eyes, don't come near me casually. ”

"But、That day、、"

"No but!"

Tsumiko Poison Island interrupted her, she knew what the girl wanted to say, but it had nothing to do with her. She's just crusading against the boss as always, then healing, and continuing to deal with some miscellaneous fish in her spare time. I had contact with her, and I only had a face-to-face with her in the middle of cleaning up the wild monsters, and a blurred line of sight collided.

The blade still did not shake in the slightest, but the girl couldn't support the strength and almost wanted to shake. Poison Island Tsuiko looked awe-inspired, and instantly put the knife into the sheath.

"If I had known that you were so annoying, I would have solved you when I first met you. ”

"No, I know, I'm a very gentle person. ”

"Gentle?"

Poison Island couldn't help but feel a little funny, and approached her.

"Even if you know I'm a 'murderer who has mutilated hundreds of players'?"

What kind of eyes were they, and the girl had never seen her so closely. Whether it is a glimpse or a glance in the past, it is not so momentary, and the closer look is amazing. Those eyes are even deeper and more moving.

"It's so beautiful~. ”

Couldn't help it, the girl murmured what she was thinking.

"What?"

At this time, it was Poison Island Tsuko who was stunned.

"Boring, forget it this time. Don't show up in front of me next time. ”

Without even a hint of nostalgia, Poison Island turned around and continued to march towards the wilderness.

"Wait!"

Seeing the departure of the child, the girl couldn't help but be anxious. hurriedly chased after him and pulled the poison island.

"Do you really think I don't dare kill you?"

There were no more words, and the long knife was instantly unsheathed!

A cold light suddenly appeared on the cold front, as if it would take someone's life in an instant.

"Please, make me stronger!"

Instantaneous, instantaneous. It returns to its sheath in a moment.

Poison Island Tsuneko looked at the girl with interest, and her long purple hair blended lightly with the dark night shadow. It's like plunging into the darkness of the world.

The familiar words touched the heart of the past, and then looked at the girl, the firm eyes, the sincere words, and the unshakable faith. are all showing her determination at the moment.

"You, what's your name? ”

"Luckily. ”

"Come with me. ”

The streets are always deserted and lifeless in the middle of the night. It's like the loneliness of being separated from heaven and earth and being alone.

"Alas. ”

Retracting his gaze to look again, Kirito couldn't help but sigh.

He broke away from the front line, tired of frequent battles and came to the rear area, and also met the 'Knights of the Black Cat on a Moonlit Night' and met Yuki.

For him, the weak luck is a clear object that should be protected. Because of this, he often keeps her in mind.

To this day, he still wonders if he would still be enjoying his mother's breakfast if he hadn't worn the 'NERvGear' that day, and if he would still be able to see his sister's smiling face.

And the most painful thing is that even the warm faces of the past are gradually blurred and dimmed in the reminiscences again and again.

Now that I think about it, maybe it's because my sister's appearance is somewhat similar to Xing that he joined this guild that isn't even a strategy team.

Looking back on the acquaintance in just three days, Xing's weak, timid but tenacious appearance made him even more worried.

"Luckily, where are you?"

At the moment、dimly**。

The absence of light greatly limits effective vision, and the player is blind in this environment without the 'Dark Vision' ability.

In the darkness there is only silence.

For the faith in her heart, she prayed to that powerful figure, a cry from her soul - to be strong.

I want to be no longer protected by others, and I want to be strong.

Tsuneko Poison Island heard the cry and was interested in trying. brought her to the twenty-seventh floor, Lombal, a class that had only been attacked for a short time. Even ordinary wild monsters seem to be able to be dealt with only by members of the strategy team.

And Poison Island Tsuneko crossed the teleportation and brought her here, but it was just for 'training'?

Levels, equipment, and skills can all grow slowly over time and exercise, but that's not your problem. ”

In the dark, the words of Poison Island Tsuneko are vivid.

"You should be an ordinary child born in an ordinary family and grown up in an ordinary family, so your attitude towards death and danger has always been fear. ”

"But being strong means being in danger all the time. If you can't cross death, you don't deserve to be strong. This is the 'Overcome Fear' that will train you today, and the monsters here are all level 15 or higher than you, and with your HP you can only take up to four hits and die. I'll give you instructions to act, and as long as you can hold out for fifteen minutes, it's over today. ”

"Well, luckily. Are you going to quit?"

Give up? The girl's mind is flowing and it is difficult to make a choice for a while.

Give up here, then return to the union, be protected by everyone, and wait for the game to be cleared. Everything will be like a nightmare, and when you wake up from the nightmare, you will still have a good family.

I will still live an ordinary and ordinary life.

And everything in the game is as if it didn't exist.

Even Kirito too.

Yourself, will you forget him?

It's like a phantom that has been chased, a lofty goal when I was a child, this time, is it the beloved?

In the dark, the girl greeted tears. Ten fingers clasped tightly.

"This time, I'm not going to give up. ”
