Looking at the Acadia station from a distance, you can see the room that is still lit.

The trees outside the window of the villa swayed gently, and the walkway, which had become dark by the night, also shone with a faint glow.

When the Sword Maiden went to the seventy-fifth floor alone to challenge Heathcliff, she welcomed a familiar guest outside her room at the guild headquarters.

On this moonlit night, Yuki is not the only one who has no intention of sleeping.

Even if everyone is calm, it's just to keep others from worrying.

......

After wandering in front of Yujifang for a long time, Lanzi, who was a little restless, still knocked on the door in front of him.

Because some words have not been spoken, the girl with long bunched hair who was lying in her room tossing and turning couldn't sleep at all, and she subconsciously walked here after getting up.

She knows that her sister has been buried in her heart since a long time ago, but Yuki, who has always been optimistic and mature, never mentions her troubles, which also makes Lanzi, who is an older sister but can't be relied on by her sister, feel lost.

But now, before tomorrow when she doesn't know what will become, she thinks that she must at least convey her thoughts to Yuki.

After all, this is also the last reserve as a sister!

It's just that this time, Lanzi, who made up his mind, didn't get a response in time.

“...... Xiaoyou, have you slept already? ”

knocked on Yuki's door again, and the information to apply for a visit has not been approved, which makes Lanzi's inquiry unconsciously bring a trace of nervousness.

“…… Xiaoyu? ”

（...... Is it really too much sleep? )

Despite this speculation, Lanzi's knock on the door not only did not slow down, but increased the force on his hand.

According to what she knew about her sister, Yuki would definitely not sleep so dead.

Could it be ......

The bad premonition gradually lingered in his heart, and he didn't dare to continue thinking about it, and Lanzi's voice became anxious.

"Xiaoyou! Yui! Are you guys in there?! ”

Lanzi's gradually amplified call also woke up the other members on the same floor.

Diagonally opposite Yuki's room, Sirika, who was wearing pajamas, poked her head out in surprise, looking at her appearance, she should also be a member of the group who can't sleep calmly.

"Sister Lan, has something happened?"

Walking up to Lanzi with a worried face, the beast trainer girl asked in a low voice.

“…… I don't know......"

The voice that was already crying came, and he put his hands on Yuki's door, and Lanzi lowered his gaze helplessly.

The response to the request for a timeout had already appeared in front of her, and it also proved that the owner of the room was not in it now.

The ominous premonition came true.

Why are you always so indecisive, if you could have been decisive at that time, wouldn't it be like this now......

Obviously, he had noticed Yuki's 'abnormality', but he didn't deal with it in time, thinking that tomorrow the girl would appear in front of him with a smile.

At this moment, the girl who is her sister has a 'disgust' with herself for the first time.

Realizing that something was wrong, Sirika also hurriedly woke up the other members of the guild, but fortunately, everyone did not fall asleep and quickly gathered in the main hall.

Then, Yui learned some news from Yui, who opened the door and came out, and the girls of "Arcadia" also took action again.

They've been left behind many times, and this time, it's definitely time to catch up with her!

……

************************************************************************************

- Seventy-fifth floor, the deepest part of the obsidian labyrinth.

After turning on a certain command, the blue light of data on Yuki's body kept rolling, and when the light shrouded his whole body and dispersed, the thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl who appeared in front of Heathcliff was no longer the thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl he had seen before.

The long golden hair hung down among the white data fragments, the angel's wings stretched slightly, and the black dress wrapped around the girl's body.

"So the conditions are equal, right? Heathcliff. ”

Holding the flaming sword in his hand aloft and pointing at the man on the throne, only the voice that had just fallen and the undiverted gaze reminded Hizcliff of who the 'angel' in front of him was.

“…… Although I had long guessed that you would be the last person to stand in front of me after defeating Kirito, I really didn't expect a duel in this format. ”

After a brief moment of surprise, Heathcliff quickly corrected his mentality when he was able to 'kill' the players while blending in with the big boss behind the scenes.

Smiling bitterly for a while, the man stared at Yuki's other gesture with a fierce gaze, and his eyes showed obvious curiosity.

"Can you tell me who this 'angel' is in its original form?"

He knew that Yuki had moved on the GM management control device and stripped off a mental management support program, which means that this form was the 'back hand' she had prepared?

Theoretically speaking, the players' bodies in the SAO world are all based on realistic data, although it is also possible to change the hair color and height simply, but the 'race' has been changed like this, which has obviously surpassed the basic setting of this world, even if she wants to modify and add, it is not something that can be completed in a day or two.

And he can be sure that this perfectly manifested 'angel' is not any NPC or boss in this world, so if she wants to complete the perfect fit with her own character in this world in a short period of time, unless she knows that this game will appear a few years ago and prepares for it.

But...... Is this really possible?

However, this impossible 'coincidence' was now in front of Heatscliffe, and he had to believe in this fact.

It's just that for girls, this is also a natural result.

You know, she really did her 'homework' in order to survive.

Yuki never thought of herself as a genius, and when she found out that she couldn't save herself by studying to advance the world's medicine, she knew that the only chance for her to 'live' was in some 'game'.

Because she had already tried, the "real world" could not guide the "elves" to come, even if she could use a small part of the elves' abilities because of the particularity of the soul, it was only a drop in the bucket.

However, the "imaginary world" of this world is a place full of infinite possibilities, and the 'unified' state she used to appear with some elven characteristics was based on this.

Because of this, she began to focus on the direction of "imaginary world", not only with the technology enough to become a hacker, but also began to design a program that could make the consciousness of "Manyuri" fit perfectly, and found an opportunity to load into this world and make it manifest.

The 'door' has been opened, and now the last step to the 'future' is to defeat the man in front of you!

So although Heathcliff raised his own question, it was the flaming sword that answered him.

The sword crushed the ruby throne behind it, and the somewhat startled man barely defended it with his cross shield.

"If this is the fantasy story you're looking forward to, shouldn't you be honestly defeated by me as a 'brave man' now?"

Looking at the boss who was supporting under his sword with an expressionless face, 'Yuki' said flatly.

“…… Hehe,I'm going to be troubled by that.,Well, I'm the final boss of this game.,Please accompany me to the end.。 ”

With a calm smile that didn't care, maybe only at this moment, the man named 'Heathcliff' was really enjoying the game.

Shattered obsidian shards tumbled towards the surroundings with the waves of impact.

Scattered flames of flying flowers intertwine with swords and shields.

The last battle that represents this world has officially begun.
