Chapter 715: Water, Water

The next moment, the player disappeared from view with a frightened and angry expression. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

For a moment, the entire Red Jade Palace fell into a dead silence.

It wasn't until Akihiko Aoba chuckled out that the suffocating atmosphere was broken.

"Nightshade...... "Heathcliff's mouth tugged at a smile, as if playful, as if something else." You don't seem to be surprised. ”

"No, you're wrong...... Nightfall smiled, shrugged his shoulders, and ignored the bewildered expressions of the players around him, and glanced at Heathcliff.

"I was really surprised when I heard that you weren't there."

"Oh?" Heathcliff raised an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing. "But you don't look surprised at all."

"It's okay." Nightshade turned sideways and walked slowly forward under Asuna's nervous gaze.

"After all, if even I am surprised, who will beat you."

Hearing this, the faces of the surrounding players changed again, but Heathcliff smiled, laughed softly, and then laughed out loud. "Night Death Monarch, you are really not an ordinary person!"

With that, Heathcliff reached out and grabbed his sword cross-shield, stepped down from the throne, and walked towards the Nightshade, who was also walking towards him, and said as he walked, "I have had a feeling since the first time I met you. ”

"Finally, to be able to come to this huge floating city, the 'Ayn Grant' top layer of the Ruby Palace, standing in front of me must be you!"

"Oh? I didn't expect you to think so highly of me. Nightshade flicked the hem of his coat and stopped five meters in front of Heathcliff, staring directly at the red figure.

"But my first impression of you wasn't very good."

Heathcliff looked away noncommittally, and no longer looked at Nightfall, but at the players who had not yet reacted, and said with a smile: "Oh, by the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, everyone, congratulations on making it to the top!" ”

"Heathcliff!" Kiriko stared at Heathcliff with an expression of unprecedented seriousness. "What the hell do you mean? What is it called 'Welcome to My Ruby Palace'! ”

"What? Is it hard to understand? Heathcliff said with a little sneer: "Indeed, the person who has been fighting with me in the past suddenly appears in front of me in this posture, and your behavior is as ...... as I imagined."

"But, once again, trust your ears, you heard you right!" Heathcliff raised his head sharply, the expression on his face had lost the shallow smile he had before, but instead had an indescribable severity and evilness.

"The Ruby Palace is indeed mine, no, I can't say that, it should be said that the entire 'Ayn Grant' is mine, and this world is also mine, and all of it here, including your imaginary body now, is created by me based on the real image scanned by your 'NERvGear' helmet!"

Kiriko gasped a breath of cold air, condensed, and said with a slight bitterness: "You are really Akihiko Kayaba!" ”

"Commander......" Asuna covered her mouth and involuntarily took a step back. You really are ......."

Heathcliff didn't answer anything more, but said: "Originally, in my script, I wanted to reveal my true identity when you reached the 95th floor, and then come here to wait for your arrival, but ......"

Turning his head to look at the Night Dead who had been silent, the light smile on Heathcliff's face was gone, and he said very solemnly: "Night Dead King, your appearance has made me dispel such an idea!" ”

"Oh? Could it be that our Creator would also be afraid of a player who is left to his devices? Nightfall looked at Heathcliff with a smile, only to shake his head.

"I just want to get a closer look at you for a while......" Heathcliff's gaze began to freeze. After all, you're the only player I didn't expect! ”

"I've been wondering, why are you, as a player, able to have a strength that far exceeds that of a player?" Heathcliff shook his head again.

"In 'SAO', there is a limit to the player's development, and this limit, even if I don't go through a certain setting, there is no way to surpass it, so I designed a unique skill, which is the only existence that can make the player's strength exceed the scope of ordinary players!"

"I gave one of my unique skills, 'Holy Sword', to myself, and the other unique skill, 'Second Sword', to the player with the strongest reflexes, and appeared as a brave character who finally defeated the Demon King, which is my original script......"

"I've always believed that only a player with another unique skill can be a countervailer!" Speaking of this, Heatscliff's tone suddenly became a little bitter. "But I was wrong, Nightshade Lord, you are an exception, an existence that I did not expect, you have the strength to confront me and even defeat me even in the ordinary state of not using the 'Second Sword Stream'!"

"You know what? Nightshade...... "Heathcliff set his sights on Nightfall. "I'm unwilling for the first time, it's really unwilling, as a player with unique skills, I don't have the confidence to be able to defeat you without using unique skills......"

"So, Nightshade," Heathcliff glanced around, knocking his cross shield on the ground.

"Before the final battle, I want to duel with you, a one-on-one duel!"

"What......" Asuna's face fluttered. Night ......"

Nightshade raised her hand, stopped Asuna's speech, looked at Heathcliff, and smiled.

"Are you serious?" Nightshade's eyes narrowed. "You don't seem to want to use administrator privileges to duel me as a player, do you think you'll win?"

"Really, I don't think there's anyone else in the game who can match you! Even me and Kiriko, who have unique skills, are the same. Heathcliff said crisply: "So, although I don't plan to use administrator privileges, I won't use the identity of an ordinary player to duel with you, no matter what, I'm also the final boss, I will adjust my ability value to the value that a final boss should have!" ”

"How? Nightshade King, do you have the confidence to face the boss alone again? ”
