Night; 22nd Floor of Al Ayn Grant; Tanghua Cottage Courtyard;

"The sky is so beautiful tonight, it's a pity......" Tang Hua sat quietly alone, not knowing what he was thinking. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Moon (Tang Hua) ......"

The sudden sound made Tang Hua come back to his senses, only to see that Asuna, who should have fallen asleep, didn't know when he walked behind him.

At this time, Tang Hua pulled Asuna into his arms with one hand, making Asuna exclaim.

"Ah~"

"Don't scream, it's not good to wake Yui up!"

Asuna looked at Tang Hua, then sat in Tang Hua's arms with peace of mind, moved her body, found a comfortable position and leaned over, and then said: "Yue (Tang Hua), it's because of Yui's troubles~"

Tang Hua touched Asuna's head and said silently, "Yes! But Yui doesn't say that I can't do anything, because this is her will, as long as she says it, even if it's a mountain of swords and fire, I'm willing to do it for her, but ......"

"Daddy!"

"Yui!" Asuna was surprised.

"Huh? Yui... Come here~"

Hearing Tang Hua's greeting, he opened his arms, and his small body threw himself into Tang Hua's arms like a homing swallow.

Looking at Yui, whose little face kept rubbing against his chest, Tang Hua asked softly, "Yui, have you been worried about anything lately?" ”

Yui's body froze.

Sure enough, there was a problem!

Asuna leaned over, gently touched Yui's head and whispered, "Is there anything to tell Mom and Dad?" ”

Tang Hua could feel that Yui was holding her arms a little harder.

Raising her head, Yui looked at Tang Hua and Asuna's eyes with tears.

Asuna's heart suddenly panicked, and she hurriedly comforted Yui.

"Yui don't cry, tell Mom and Dad if you have something, Mom and Dad will definitely help you!"

Crystal tears reflecting the moonlight dripped from the corners of Yui's eyes, splashing a beautiful tear on Tang Hua's arm.

"Daddy...... Mommy ......"

"Yui... Yui wants to be with you forever......"

Hearing Yui's words, Asuna suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, touched Yui's head and laughed softly.

"Don't worry, Yui, even if the game is cleared, Mom is still Yui's mother, and Dad is also Yui's father, and when you return to reality, Mom and Dad will definitely go to you."

"No, it's not like that......"

Yui, who buried her head in Tang Hua's arms again, pushed Tang Hua hard.

"After clearing the game... Yui... Yui won't exist anymore... I can't be with my mom and dad anymore......"

Asuna's hand paused.

In fact, after such a long time, Asuna more or less guessed Yui's identity.

Yui is likely... Not human!

"Yui, do you remember what happened to you?" Tang Hua asked.

Feeling the stiffness of Asuna's palm above her head, Yui couldn't hold back her crying anymore.

"Wow...... Woowoo woo ......"

It took a long time for Tang Hua to comfort Yui.

The little girl sniffled, and the pear blossom looked at Tang Hua with rain, and the affection in her eyes was enough to melt the hardest steel in the world.

"Dad, Mommy... Yui and Yui were originally "SAO's "Mental State Management Support Program, Trial Work No. 1", that is, AI (Artificial Intelligence), which is responsible for managing and caring for the mental state of SAO players. ”

With her glasses wide open, Asuna looked at Yui in disbelief.

Although she had long guessed that Yui might not be human, she really heard the truth from Yui's mouth, and Asuna's heart was still greatly touched.

"Yui... Yui... You're not human??? ”

Her eyes darkened a little, and Yui lowered her head.

"Not long after the game started, Yui was ordered by a control AI with higher privileges to prohibit the provision of psychological counseling services to players, so I had to be a bystander, observing the players' every move and monitoring their inner values."

"In the beginning, the situation was particularly bad, and every player was dominated by anger, despair, and fear......"

"My original duty was to get to these players and give them psychological counseling, but I was denied that right......"

"In this case, the accumulation of program errors finally broke me down...... In the end, I had to freeze myself first. ”

"Later, one day, I was accidentally discovered by my father......"

"Unlike other players, Dad doesn't have any negative emotions in his heart, which also caught my attention. Later, when I lived with my father and mother, the strong positive emotions exuded by the two of you made me yearn for it. ”

"I... I don't want to be separated from my mom and dad ......."

"Daddy...... Father...... Mommy ......"

Looking at Yui, who was crying in her arms, Tang Hua gently wiped the tears on her little face.

"It's okay, Yui."

"Huh? Father? Raising her head, Yui looked at Tang Hua sadly and suspiciously.

"Daddy...... Don't you dislike Yui and aren't you human......"

Tang Hua shook his head and said softly: "How can Dad dislike Yui, whether Yui is a human or a program, she is Dad's good daughter, isn't it?" ”

Turning his head to look at Asuna beside him, who was also crying and smiling, Tang Hua lowered his head, and his forehead and Yui's forehead touched lightly.

"That's what Mom thinks too......"

"Daddy...... Mom...... Yui and Yui like you so much...... Woowoo woo ......"

When Yui finally calmed down, Tang Hua said something that shocked both Yui and Asuna.

"Yui, believe in Dad, Dad can let you live with Mom and Dad in reality."

Looking up, Asuna and Yui were speechless for a long time.

"So, what about you? Would you like to be with me forever? ”

"Yue (Tang Hua), what are you talking about, of course we will be together forever." Hearing this, Asuna slowly hugged Tang Hua. "We will be together forever for the moon (Tang Hua)~"

"Daddy~"

========================== the next episode preview ===========================

Since Tang Hua comforted Yui that night, the little girl finally regained her former joy.

Although they didn't understand how Tang Hua could make Yui, who is an intelligent AI, live with them in reality, neither Asuna nor Yui chose to delve into it.

Tang Hua didn't explain in detail, because Tang Hua knew that the facts would prove everything.

He's a dad and she's a daughter.

He is a husband and she is a wife.

As long as they believe in him, that's enough.

---And 'SAO' is time to end!
