Chapter 61: Asuna, Life, or Death

"Okay, Mao, Field, Crystal, Hiko!" He said this in an extremely indifferent tone, staring at the man not far away with inexplicable eyes: "It's my fault...... ...... who has always regarded you as a friend."

"No wonder why I repeatedly told me not to pass the news on to the Kirito, but they finally came, because you sent the news to them...... No wonder you waited so long at the door before, just to wait for Kirito...... You already had a hunch that Kirito would guess it, so did you bring him in on purpose? Oh, is it because you're tired of playing role-playing games? ”

The man stopped talking, but redirected his gaze to Kirito, the only one who was not harmed by the paralysis, "Kirito, I must reward you with a chance." ”

"Opportunity?" Kirito repeated suspiciously.

"That's right, after my identity was revealed, I obviously couldn't stay in the strategy group anymore, so I had to go to the top layer of the Ruby Palace to wait for your arrival...... I really can't bear to abandon you all the way to the Blood Alliance Knights and all of you in the Raiders Group, but don't worry, you will definitely be able to stand in front of me on your own...... But before that, as a reward, Kirito, as a reward for seeing through my identity, I'll give you a chance, a chance to be able to go head-to-head with me one-on-one, and if you can beat me here, then the game will end, and of course, I'll remove the immortal attribute. ”

The system's chime is finally belated.

The third stage of the mission is opened, defeat Heathcliff, clear SAO, mission requirements: Kirito, Asuna survive, restrictions are canceled, and memories return

The memory that was forcibly sealed by the system finally broke free, and one picture after another appeared in his mind, and he had completely recalled the cause and effect.

And just as May was silently digesting those memories, Kirito had already made a decision, no different from the original, of course, a choice...... War!

"Kouno...... Yaga ......" May frowned, to be honest, although he appreciated Kirito's courage, but at this time, there was no doubt that his chances of victory were too few......

However, May, the only one who can help at this time, is still in a state of paralysis, although the body has gradually adapted, but it will take time to fully act.

He could only mutter, hurry, hurry...... However, his face became more and more ugly.

From the very beginning of the battle, Kirito did not spare his hand, his two swords came out together, his superb reaction, accurate swordsmanship, and the suppressed Kayaba Jinghiko kept retreating, and he could only occasionally find an opportunity to fight back.

However, suppression does not mean that he has the upper hand, obviously it has been attacking Kirito, but at this moment it is Kirihiko Kayaba who has mastered the rhythm, he constantly uses the cross shield to block the attack, it is obviously such a fierce attack, but he completely blocked it without leaking, and the occasional counterattack seems to be weak, but it often forces Kirito to fall into the upper hand, and even, now Kirito is already a little difficult to ride a tiger, he must maintain this offensive without stopping, once a little slack, Then Kayaba Akihiko will directly take his life with a thunderous counterattack!

After the lord battle just now, the health of the two people at this time is not full, and they have lost a little in the fierce attack and defense just now, only about one-third, this kind of blood, as long as the solid middle and first blow, duel, no, fight, it will be over.

Kirito is undoubtedly more difficult, the setting of the second knife flow is designed by the man in front of him himself, he naturally knows where the flaws are, so, skills or something, you can't use it, if he wants to win, he can only rely on his own reaction!

A little faster, a little faster!

He kept speeding up his offensive, even to the point of madness, but May was even more anxious, although the attack was getting faster and faster, but his rhythm was also getting more and more chaotic, and if it went on like this, I am afraid it would ...... Revealing flaws......

And in this case, the flaws are exposed, and there is no doubt that Akihiko Kayaba will not leave his hands, and the only thing waiting for Kirito is death......

May's hand was tightly grasped on the hilt of the sword, and the back of his hand burst into unwilling green tendons, at this time he couldn't take care of any tasks or tasks, and Kirito had been with him for two years, he had already regarded this somewhat gentle boy as his younger brother, but at this time, did he want to watch him step by step towards death?

Are you kidding......

What are you kidding, what are you kidding!!

He won't pin his hopes on the plot, his arrival has changed too much, he doesn't dare to bet.

Once, as a newcomer, he gambled once, but in the end, it was Seiya's death, which made him understand that this is not a script that has been set by someone, this is ...... Real-world ......

However, no matter how anxious he was, in the end, Kirito couldn't hold on.

After being almost killed by Kayaba Akihiko's counterattack again, hatred and fear made him subconsciously use the move set by the man in front of him: Starburst Air Flow Slash.

Seeing the flickering light on Kirito's blade, May's heart sank.

Lost......

The twin swords danced like wild flowers, bringing dazzling sparks and shining light, but they repeatedly hit the wall on the shield that was always one step ahead, until finally, the fiercest blow of the White Sword Darkchaser stabbed the blood-colored shield, and after the final sound, it snapped......

The corners of the man's mouth floated with an indifferent arc, and the knight's long sword was merciless, grabbing the stiffness of Kirito's recruitment and slashing it hard!

I'm sorry...... Asuna ...... You are alone, and you will live......

A trace of apology silently rose in his heart, but before his thoughts could settle, the haunting figure appeared in front of him!

Asuna actually forced her will to overcome the rules of the game, and came to Kirito in a paralyzed state, trying to use her body to block this deadly sword for him!

Even Akihiko Kayaba was stunned, the knight's sword still fell according to the original route, and when he saw it, he was about to die......

Suddenly, May let out a roar of rage, as if the paralyzed state had suddenly failed to take effect on him, and with lightning detached a side blade from Fenrir, he took a step forward, and threw the side blade out at the last moment!

At the same time, as if opening a hole in the void, a silver chain snaked out, and the last one came first, and it actually wrapped around Akihiko Kayaba, although it didn't cause much damage, but it succeeded in slowing down his movements a little, and with this slowdown, the sub-blade that shot out finally caught up, and accurately hit the sword of the knight's sword, finally making his sword deflect, not hitting Asuna's vital point, but only slashing over her shoulder.

However, all this effort only slowed down Asuna's death, and the already meager blood tank could no longer withstand any attacks, allowing Kirito's desperate gaze to stare, but still unswervingly sliding towards zero......

Is it irretrievable......

PS: The drop speed of hitting the vital point is different from hitting other parts of the blood tank, of course, this is my setting here, so May will desperately try to grab time.
