――For the first time, I felt that it was a shame......

Instead of agreeing immediately, Lord Death asked, "What's in it for you to bet on this?" Or what's in it for me? Do you think I'm that kind of rotten good person? ”

Asuna shook her head slightly, and said seriously: "If you are not a bad person, then you must have your own purpose in helping players." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and this purpose is related to the player's gratitude and whether it can break through the whole game. So, why not bet on it? It shouldn't hurt you. ”

Lord Death tilted his head, resting his head lightly on the cold scythe, as if thinking about something, and then smiled and said, "Are you so sure I'll promise you?" ”

There is play.

Asuna said silently in her heart, nodding without hesitation.

"So, what price can you pay in exchange for my help? Like I said, I can't help you fight bosses, nor can I team up with you to level up. Do you think it's worth it? "Lord Death was a little curious.

He was very curious about what the girl in front of him could do.

"It's worth it." Asuna was not confused, "I will never die here." I have to go back alive, live to see my parents, and live my whole life. I will never allow me to die here. If it's a game, beat it and kill all the bosses. If there is a time limit, then clear the customs within the time limit. Nothing is impossible. ”

She had changed dramatically from yesterday, or, from morning.

She had been suppressed for a long time, and she had always wanted to say it. But no one will listen to her words that are like a declaration of death, and no one will agree with her. Even she didn't believe she could do it. But if she didn't believe herself, she couldn't convince anyone to believe her. So she can only believe in herself.

"So, what do you need me to do for you?" Lord Death's interest deepened, and his smile became more and more pleasant. He had never seen a woman with such a strong desire to survive. Whether it was a flash in the pan or whether it was true, time would tell, but in this moment, Lord Death was overwhelmed by her desire.

He didn't want to die, it was his deepest desire and longing. Then when this desire manifests itself in others, he will give it the utmost respect. No one understands this mood better than he does.

If life were to be compared to a game, when surrounded by all kinds of dangers, the Grim Reaper would never take his hands off the keyboard, but would resist until he shed his last drop of blood. He's such a person who doesn't admit defeat. The more he saw death, the more he realized how important it was to be alive, and the more he respected everything he wanted to live.

"Equipment, props, materials, hidden missions. Help me get everything I can use. Asuna replied without hesitation. If the Grim Reaper can't fight the boss, then she'll be the boss, and if he can't tell her where the boss's room is, then tell her the boss's information. If she can't do it on her own, then give what she has to someone else, and then go and get better.

"So what can you pay?" Lord Death stopped, just outside the city, outside the safe zone. The giant scythe was his own mark, and many players saw the Grim Reaper standing under the city gate from afar. But the aura exuded when Lord Death talked to Asuna made everyone afraid to come forward to say hello, just to hear what they were talking about.

They had never seen Lord Death smile so brightly, and more often than not, they had smiled as if they had followed the convention. They were curious to see who the player standing across from Lord Death was. Because of the angle, no one saw Asuna's face, and they didn't know that she was a female player.

There are still too few female players in the game, and no one is thinking in that direction.

"A condition." Asuna's voice trembled slightly, but she managed to speak still.

"Is anything okay?" Lord Death looked at the girl with a strange gaze, and her tone became a little strange. He felt as if he had gotten away from it.

Despite being a little uncomfortable at the gaze of Lord Death, Asuna nodded stiffly. She was mentally prepared to a considerable extent. After the words came out, she felt relaxed instead.

In a way, she could pay for anything other than her life to win the gamble. She would never see this as a game, and everyone who played SAO purely as a game was dead. Those who survived realized how cruel the world really is. If you want to survive, you can either huddle in the safe zone and wait for the frontline players to win, or you can be better than anyone else.

She chose the latter. She'd been there, so she definitely wouldn't want to go back. What kind of torture is it to stay in a corner where you can only hear the news of how many more people have died, day by day. That fear was going to drive her crazy.

So she knows very well that only being alive is the most important thing. But in order to live, she had to go to the most dangerous places. Then, if you want to survive, you can only become stronger. No matter how terrible the price is, Asuna will choose to accept it. She doesn't want to be a hero or thanks, she just wants to live.

Looking at Asuna's face, which didn't mean anything to joke, Lord Death fell silent for the first time, coughed a little embarrassedly, and asked, "Wait...... Are you serious? ”

"Seriously. Even now. Undeterred, Asuna met the gaze of Lord Death.

Lord Death unconsciously looked away. No matter how you disguise it...... He's still a single dog who's been single for as long as he's actually age, and a virgin for the rest of his life - that's the biggest secret he's hiding. After all, he wasn't even thirty years old, not even twenty-five, so he wasn't an archmage at all, so it's not strange that he's still in a position or something.

Originally, he thought that the girl should be more reserved, but now that Asuna saw it, he couldn't see it. Although he could probably guess what this so-called "price" was, he actually panicked when he heard Asuna say it so nakedly.

Kindness...... This is a curable disease, called virgin cancer.

Asuna was also a little depressed. She suddenly noticed that things turned out a little differently than she thought. It took a lot of courage for her to say such a thing. Kindness...... Could it be ......

"Are you ......" Asuna wanted to say on the spot.

Lord Death hurriedly hugged Asuna, directly strangled her words in the cradle, and then smiled bitterly in her ear: "You won, I promise you." ”

It's not that Lord Death really can't get rid of his place or something, it's just that his requirements are a bit high...... It's really just a little bit taller, and with all kinds of coincidences, his virginity has unexpectedly been retained until now. Now it seems like the wrong choice...... He had never been in such an awkward situation.

It's better to say that he's almost refracting to it, and he can't do it at all if he wants to do something or something.

Lord Death decides bitterly that he will never play like this again, and will play him to death a few more times.

Asuna blinked. She suddenly noticed that the posture of the two of them was a little ambiguous, and to outsiders, it looked like Lord Death suddenly hugged her. But more than this kind of thing, what she cares about is the fact that Lord Death is very "generous" to admit. To be honest, she had thought about many endings, but never expected it to be like this.

Really...... Shall not a man be a disfigurer?
