"Ding Dong!"

"Click!"

"You are?"

"Hello, are you Mr. Shinyuki Sugo?"

"Oh, I am. ”

"Great, please die before my game starts. ”

"Nobuyuki Sugo thought it was a psychopath, and was about to close the door.

"I'll let you know the limits of human body and spirit, please feel it, try to hold on as long as possible, don't let me down!"

His body was unable to move.

The next moment, he was dragged into hell.

Sunday, November 6, 2022.

This day, for these 10,000 people, is the beginning of a nightmare.

The official operation of the world's first fully stealth game "Sword -Art -Online", that is, "Sword Art Online", began on this day.

With the fall of the "death game announcement" of the "god" of this world, Akihiko Kayaba, all players fell into the abyss.

A haze of great terror hangs over everyone's heart.

This also includes Asuka.

Oh, yes, in this world she's called Asuna.

——————

It's been two weeks since Akihiko Kayaba's crazy declaration.

I thought it was just a game, but ......

The hunger in my stomach is compared to reality...... At least Asuna doesn't make a difference.

"Goo......

In this world, you can't die if you don't eat...... But the unbearable hunger is debilitating enough.

Luckily, in what could be called the "Newbie Village" in the starting town, there was a food that could be bought for just 1 unit of this world's currency, 1 kole. The initial gold you start with is enough to buy a lot of money, but it's just ......

"Woo!"

Asuna took a bite of the cheapest food in the world.

“……”

The taste is very unpleasant, and the coarse and hard black bread has a hard to swallow taste.

Even the faint hunger pangs of the stomach could not make this 1 kohl worth of toast delicious.

However, for the fact that the world has brought hunger back to such a real thing...... Asuna had no way of resisting.

After all, it's the cheapest food~ No matter how you say it, it can't be delicious......

"Huh?!" Suddenly, she smelled a scent!

What kind of soup is it? The aroma of the soup is full of flavor, and there is nothing else that I can't tell apart, but the aroma of very delicious food.

She looked in the direction of the scent.

"Ah~~Good evening~Lovely Miss~~"

He has short black hair, golden eyes that look handsome, and a smile on his face.

The man held a large plate filled with a variety of mouth-watering meals. It is worth mentioning ...... There are also two pieces of western cutlery.

It's only been 2 weeks since the game started, and the vast majority of people are in a state of collapse and confusion, with only a very small number of people participating in the strategy game, and even fewer of these people can earn enough Cole to buy this high-end food...... Or rather............ Probably just one person......

After all, at the beginning of this game, there are enough Cole, and the more important thing should be to update more powerful equipment in order to obtain more powerful combat power...... It's just this man.

Of course...... These things, Asuna this game blind does not know.

"You are?"

"Oh~ my name is Moro Karn~ just call me Karn. Karn placed the large plate in his hand on the steps where Asuna was sitting, sat down familiarly, picked up a fork and ate the food. "You're hungry, aren't you?

"......" Asuna was stunned.

"Goo............ but her stomach isn't as slow as she is.

"......" The indecent thing of her stomach screaming made Asuna bow her head in shame and pull down her cloak hood to cover her eyes. "Why, why ......?"

"Hah, of course you have to eat when you're hungry, right? That kind of brown bread must not be delicious~~"

“…… I was asking you...... Hmm!"

Before Asuna could finish her sentence, Sakura's lips were blocked by a piece of beef dipped in a fragrant sauce.

"Okay~~ What's more important than eating when you're hungry? These foods are bought from restaurants, and although they don't disappear when they are taken out of restaurants, they have a system setting of 'it will become very unpalatable after 30 minutes'! ”

"......" Asuna listened to Karn and stopped asking about things. Although this is really rude, it is ...... The food in front of her was so fragrant that Asuna, who was hungry and had eaten black bread for two weeks, couldn't help but crave it.

She took Karn's fork with the beef in her mouth, and ate her supper peacefully.

——————

"10. Thank you very much!" Asuna thanked Karn with a red face.

Why blushing? Because this large plate is enough for three or four people to have a full dinner, and almost eighty percent of it is solved by Asuna.

However, because of the wide hood, it was impossible to see Asuna's face clearly.

"Hmm~ Have you eaten enough?"

"Yes...... Thanks, that ......"

"Huh, what's wrong?"

"Why ...... Help me like that?" Asuna lifted her hood and looked straight into Karn's face.

"It's my duty to help fill the belly of a lovely girl!" Karn said with a look of righteousness that made Asuna unsure of how to react.

“………… That's the reason??"

"Need anything else......? If this reason doesn't reassure you...... You just think it's my way of increasing my friendship in order to get you into my harem!"

“……”

- Queen, harem, what a strange person......

"By the way, you don't have a place to stay tonight, do you?"

Even if you can only buy brown bread worth 1 koll for food, there is naturally no way to solve the problem of shelter. But Asuna doesn't care, anyway, there are no insects, dust, or anything like the streets in this game, so even if you find a random place to sleep on the street, you won't get sick or dirty.

It's just that Asuna, who has no proper place to sleep and is forced to experience the feeling of sleeping in the open, has to be said to be an extremely bad thing.

"......" But this kind of thing is really hard to talk about.

"Do you want to go to where I live?"

The words made Asuna instantly vigilant and clasped her hands around herself.

"Eh~~Anla~~ If I do anything to you in the town, you can report me directly, besides, if you don't feel at ease, I can give you Cole, and you can rent a room yourself. ”

"......" Asuna became more vigilant when Karn said this. "Why are you doing so much for me?"

"Of course I want to include you in my harem!"

"......" spoke simply, unabashedly, and responded completely positively to Asuna's question.

On the contrary, it made Asuna helpless.

"I'm sorry, I didn't have the heart to think about those things. ”

"Well~~ If you want to think about other things, wouldn't it be better to change to a more comfortable environment?"

"......" this person...... has been stalking, but everything he does is for his own good, Asuna really can't be angry, and he just invited himself to a hearty meal, and he is embarrassed to drive him away like this.

Just as Asuna's thoughts were churning.

"Ding!"

A translucent window popped up in front of Asuna's eyes:

[Player [Moro Karn] has just given you a gift (100,000 kll)]

"Huh?" Asuna was startled by the window in front of her, then took a closer look to realize what was happening. “……”

She pointed to the number in front of Cole with her fingers, and muttered, "One, ten, hundred, thousand............ 10. 100,000 ?!!!!"

This number ...... It is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for Asuna, who has only seen less than five hundred koles of initial money.

And Karn gave himself such a huge sum of money without even blinking an eye, which really shocked Asuna.

"Let's go, I know the best inn in the original town. ”

"Oh, oh......"

Asuna stunned as she followed Karn.
