Black, pitch black world...

Being in this place is endless loneliness.

When he opened his eyes, Xiangkong called softly: "Yui? ”

A burst of white light slowly emerged against the darkness, and Yui appeared in it, a small cloud of pale yellow light in her hand.

"Use it to create a world where you can be in it."

"How do you create a zào?" Xiangkong looked at her.

"Imagination!"

"Imagination...?"

Xiangkong lowered his head, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind.

The cloudless blue sky, the endless grassland with turquoise waves, and a slightly raised hill with a tree shaped like a slingshot standing on the hill.

As soon as the picture started, there was a dazzling white light tearing through the darkness, and the thought arose, the world was completed, but it only took a few seconds.

The smell of grass comes from afar along with the wind, and the endless grassland swells like waves, and from far to near, the whole world only has the rustle caused by the wind passing through the grassland.

Xiangkong stood on the hill, looking at the dream-like blue waves, this is the picture he imagined, and it became a world, a world that belongs to him, a world that he can stand on, at this moment, he finally understands how much this seed is for him.

Yui still embodied in the form of an elf, and she sat on the shoulder of Xiangkong, also quietly watching the quiet world.

"Akihiko Kayaba, I never thought I'd be grateful to you one day." Xiangkong sat down against the acacia tree, staring at the grassland and muttering to himself.

Yui stretched out her small hand and pressed it on Xiangkong's cheek, and said slowly: "Seeds can only be used to create the zào world, and with my ability, I can't write AI programs, and forcibly creating zào creatures will only make it very incongruous." ”

"It's fine." Xiangkong smiled faintly, he thought of Argo, and then fell silent.

At that time, he chose to leave ALO completely unprepared, and based on the judgment at the time, he could only break away.

If you want to say the only variable, it is the appearance of Seijiro Kikuoka.

"This person..."Xiangkong frowned slightly, and then relaxed, he thought that he might never have contact with this person again, so he simply didn't want to.

"Yui, can I contact others through the guò network?" Xiangkong asked.

"I'm sorry, I can't do it at the moment." Yui looked lost.

Xiangkong smiled and comforted: "Don't care, there will always be a way." ”

"Hmm." Yui nodded slightly, as Akihiko Kayaba said, it was not enough, but there were infinite possibilities, and at this time, she was evolving.

The world of the first Zào is dreamlike, but terrifyingly quiet.

The sky was blue, like a jewel, but it was monotonous.

The grassland is green, like a green sea, but no less monotonous.

They had extremely dazzling colors, but they were pale in nature, and the only colors of the whole world were the earthy yellow hill, and the leafless acacia tree and the two people under the tree, and the wind that swept through the whole world from time to time.

"Argo... Can I find you? Can you find me? ”

Xiangkong's eyes were slightly dark, and after a long time, a little light emerged from his eyes, covering up the gloom.

He could wait, until Yui had the ability to connect with others through the guò network, he was just worried about what his disappearance would bring to them.

Is it death?

It is still possible to expect the disappearance.

"Yui, the world is too monotonous."

"Hmm."

"That's... We make it not monotonous. ”

Yui flipped her wings and flew into the air, letting out a burst of laughter like silver bells.

"Okay."

Luckily, it's not lonely...

Luckily, it's not alone...

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

The World Tree was successfully raided... ALO is boiling.

Who is it?

Most players don't know, and those who know don't tell it, and it becomes a mystery.

The man who had finally rushed to the World Tree vanished, as if he had never appeared, leaving only a lot of sad feelings.

On that day, a man in the Shenwu family roared angrily, but under the majesty of a white-haired old man's eyes, he helplessly suppressed his anger.

That day, the strong girl returned to the real world only biting her lip, clenching her fists hard, not saying a word, and being silent all night.

That day, they finally knew who he was, but he disappeared again, in a way they couldn't believe, and this time, maybe he really did.

The gears of the world will not stop for anyone after all.

There are no more outrageous problems in the continuous operation of ALO, and the existence of the imaginary world is gradually accepted by people, but due to the lack of core technology sources, the current imaginary world only has ALO...

A few months later.

The bond maintained by SAO has always existed, and the players of the original SAO have always held parties.

"Summer, he still hasn't heard from him?" Asukina took a pinch of her drink and turned her head to look at the girl beside her.

Summer shook her head.

"Really," Tomorrow sighed without a trace.

In the past few months, Summer has used the foundation of hacking technology to specialize in the technology of imaginary worlds, and now she is working to enter the imaginary world research group under the Shenwu family, but if you want to have this qualification, you must have an unimaginable amount of knowledge for ordinary people, but even so, she still gritted her teeth and persisted at a young age.

Tomorrow Na looked at such a summer day, and she finally understood that although she seemed to have an indescribable crush on that man, she couldn't reach the girl next to her.

"I'm sure he's still here."

A slightly immature voice fell.

Kazuto naturally sat down in the seat next to Asukina, stretched out a finger to the strong man in the bar, and said sternly: "I want a glass of Bloody Mary and a glass of milk." ”

Xing, who sat down with him, shook his head helplessly.

Mills (Achill) smiled and pushed out two glasses of milk.

Seeing this, he rolled his eyelids, picked up the milk and drank it.

"Did you pass the quiz test?" Asukina pursed her lips.

The hand holding the cup suddenly froze in mid-air.

"My brother hung up a subject." Naoba sat in the last seat in front of the bar and smiled at Mills, "I want a glass of milk." ”

Mills laughed: "Or added sugar?" ”

Naoba nodded vigorously.

"Naoba." Complain to someone.

Naoba threw him directly at the back of the head.

Yuki smiled quietly.

Two worlds...
