Side Story: How far away is forever
Ayn Grant, 100th Floor, Ruby Palace.
The sky was full of swords and swords, and a large-scale melee was going on, and their enemy was a huge figure.
The embodiment of Redius, a powerful boss who truly guards the top floor of Floating City!
After a long battle, the people finally conquered the top of the new floating city again.
The dark red sword light flashed, the sword shadow in the sky was eliminated, and An Zhe slashed horizontally with a sword, knocking out the last part of the boss's blood.
The huge body exploded into colorful light chips, and the bright silver star bearer's robe on An Zhe's body kept swinging, and the brilliant golden holy sword in his hand was swirling with light.
Pulling out the beautiful sword flower, An Zhe put the sword back into its sheath, and a huge cheer broke out behind him.
"The strategy is complete!!"
"Great!!"
"It's not easy!"
An Zhe smiled and turned around, and the members of the crusade had already gathered around.
are still the main members, the Knights led by Achill, the Wind Forest Volcano led by Klein, and Asuna, Lizbet, and Sirika here.
Of course, there are also some other top players in the imaginary world.
"Ah, An Zhe's attack power is still high, it really deserves to be a holy sword, and it can't grab the output at all."
Klein touched his head, his eyes fell on the holy sword that An Zhe was carrying, and his eyes showed envy.
This holy sword was given to An Zhe by Shino Asada after getting it at that time, and it is the equipment in the game.
In fact, An Zhe himself has a copy of the real holy sword that can also be used, but this is just a game, and he doesn't need to take out the real holy sword, so this holy sword has replaced the dark star sword and has become An Zhe's main weapon.
It's just that Asuna looked at An Zhe with slight disgust: "Obviously you don't have to fight so tired, An Zhe always secretly paddling." ”
An Zhe blinked and couldn't help but stick out his tongue. I thought that if I output seriously, I guess I can occupy half of the team's output by myself, so what's the point.
"Why, I've worked hard, Asuna."
As he spoke, he smiled and waved his hand to take out all the drops, which really caught people's attention.
After distributing all the valuable things, An Zhe's eyes fell on the last black stone.
"What is this? I can't identify ......"
Everyone looked at it with a slight sigh, which made De Anzhe a little strange.
"This is the sword altar, a reward for the last striker, with which you can erect a sword platform, leaving its owner's sword and name to keep forever."
Asuna looked at the stone in An Zhe's hand, and then sighed: "This used to be one of the rewards for the Raiders that the regiment commander said, but then something like that happened......"
Needless to say, An Zhe also knew what was going on, it was Kayaba Jinghiko himself who was doing something, obviously this reward was not released later, and now it is finally available......
Shaking her head slightly, Angel took Asuna's hand and smiled at everyone.
"I see...... Hawkers, let that time always be remembered in the bottom of your heart, now, you have truly defeated the Red Jade Palace and finished attacking this floating city. ”
Except for Shino Asada and Yuki, everyone else also showed a look of relief on their faces, and An Zhe smiled when he saw this and put the stone in his hand on the ground, and the next moment the stone emitted a golden light and turned into a golden sword platform!
"Choose your matching sword and put it on." Asuna said with a smile to Ahn Zhe.
"Well, a lonely sword is too pitiful...... Asuna is also well. An Zhe grinned, making Asuna's expression slightly stunned.
"Is it okay?"
"Just try it."
An Zhe said, having already taken out the Dark Star Sword, the sword that had accompanied him for a long way in the imaginary world and finally got the honor it deserved.
Asuna thought about it and took out her flickering light, this sword also made a lot of sense to her, and when she saved Yuki, the sword was also returned to her hands.
Rub!
With a soft sound, the two swords stood diagonally on the sword platform crossed, and the names of Anzhe and Asuna also appeared on the golden stone platform.
The body of the Dark Star Sword still had a magnificent nebula flowing above it, scattering a little silver light, leaning diagonally against the blue-green flickering light around it.
"Yo, it's pretty good!" An Zhe smiled, but the men and women around him were full of envy.
Lizbet pursed her lips with a smile on her face: "You have to show off everywhere, it's so angry......"
……
In ALO, the hotel is naturally chartered.
It took a lot of time, and finally finished the Floating City strategy again, and everyone present was obviously very happy.
This time is different from before, they are completely in the mood to enjoy the game, not because of the crisis of life and death.
The mentality is different, not to mention the level of happiness at this time, and there are people laughing everywhere.
An Zhe inevitably became a celebrity here, although he always went online every two or three days, unlike Klein and they were there every day, but his strength shocked everyone, and he was always inseparable from Asuna, and it was difficult not to attract attention.
During this period of time, An Zhe often went to the dungeon with his friends, or traveled to the mountains and rivers, and there is one thing that makes the imaginary world particularly attractive, that is, the countless beautiful scenic spots inside.
The fun lasted until the early hours of the real world, when everyone reluctantly dispersed, and An Zhe and Asuna returned to their in-game residence.
"Ah...... Asuna, do you have time today? Let's go to Pingdingshan together. ”
Approaching the end of the line, An Zhe sent an invitation to the girl who was leaning on his shoulder.
"Huh? There is time, but is there something going on there? ”
Asuna was a little puzzled, but An Zhe smiled and kissed her on the face: "Because the cherry blossoms have already bloomed there at this time, don't you want to go and see it?" ”
The girl's eyes suddenly lit up, and she squinted her eyes and smiled happily: "It's rare that An Zhe still cares about this." ”
"Of course, are you going? Or do you want to be with Lizzebet and Yuki? ”
"Don't call them."
"Uh...... Why? ”
Asuna refused without thinking about it, hugging An Zhe's waist, she blushed slightly and looked at An Zhe with disgusted eyes: "You think, the people who go there are usually couples, right?" Tell them to go over and they'll be sad. ”
"This ...... Haha, it makes sense......" An Zhe stroked his forehead and shook his head with a smile, and at this time it was also time to go offline, and the two of them withdrew from the consciousness connection at the same time.
The meeting place was in the city, and An Zhe arrived for more than ten minutes first, and it didn't take long for Asuna's figure to come into view.
An Zhe beckoned to the girl, who hurriedly trotted over, and it could be seen that she was carefully dressed, wearing a pale red dress, looking slender and beautiful.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
The girl said apologetically, and An Zhe smiled and said it didn't matter.
"Isn't it normal for a man to wait for a girl, and it's a sin to let you wait for me."
Asuna didn't say anything, reached out and grabbed An Zhe's arm, and the two set off towards their destination.
……
Pingdingshan is not a well-known place, and it is only when the cherry blossoms bloom here every year that people come to play.
Obviously, the news of everyone this year is a little late, and no one came to watch the blooming period, and there is no one to watch, and An Zhe and the others are the first to come to enjoy the flowers.
"Wow, that's beautiful...... Anyway, I thought there would be a lot of people, but it doesn't seem like people have remembered it. ”
Asuna looked at the empty mountains and said with some surprise.
An Zhe didn't care, and replied with a light smile: "It's okay if there is no one, so it's quiet." ”
Finding a flat place, Anzhe spread out the cloth mat, took out food and water from the prepared large bags, and finally took out a tent.
The girl also ran to help, and after the two of them set up the tent together, they both nodded with satisfaction.
After sitting down and resting for a while, Asuna's eyes were attracted by the stream that flowed down from the mountain not far away, and she ran to the side of the stream with Anzhe, looking at the fish swimming in the stream nearly calf deep, she was a little moved.
"An Zhe, shall we go catch fish?"
"Huh? This...... I'm fine, but are you sure you can? The water is still very cold. ”
An Zhe is worried about Asuna's body, after all, she is a girl who is born with a cold body.
Hearing that An Zhe was thinking about herself for the first time, the girl was also stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but blush, with joy in her heart.
"It's okay, it's so warm and pleasant today."
"Okay then, but don't play too long." An Zhe didn't think much about it anymore, Asuna happily took off her shoes and socks, tentatively probed the stream with her bare feet, and slowly stepped into the pebble-filled stream.
"Hiss~~Good ice, good ice......"
Asuna let out a soft snort, but her tone was full of excitement, and she kept waving at Anzhe.
"An Zhe, come down quickly!"
"Got it." An Zhe responded with a smile, pulled up his trouser legs and followed him down into the stream, the water temperature was actually very cool, which made people feel very comfortable.
"What if someone drinks downstream, you say?" An Zhe suddenly said this, causing Asuna's body to stagnate......
"I feel guilty for saying that...... girl said with a cute expression.
An Zhe grinned, laughing and saying that he was just joking, and Asuna didn't take it seriously, and the two frolicked in the stream to catch fish.
The stream splashed in the sun refracted the light, the girl smiled happily, the corners of her skirt flew, the stream splashed and hung on her white legs, An Zhe followed the side to carefully prevent the girl from falling, with a soft smile on her face, playing with her.
They didn't play for long, and after half an hour, the two returned to the tent, snuggled together to enjoy the cherry blossoms, and chatted softly.
Rare alone time, like having a never-ending topic, this delicate life has lasted for a long time, but it is still so unsatisfying, I just hope that this life will never stop.
It wasn't until the southern sky turned, the starlight sprinkled, and the night quietly shrouded down, enveloping everything with a trace of mystery, and the two people who were immersed in the world of the two hugged each other and fell asleep.
The small tent was warm and pleasant, An Zhe opened his eyes, gently opened the tent, and the bright moonlight penetrated directly.
Asuna was sleeping quietly on the side, An Zhe was fascinated, reached out and gently pressed the girl's pretty face, but her eyes moved slightly and opened her eyes.
Looking at An Zhe, who was staring at her, the girl didn't speak, but a smile appeared on her face, and her eyes were full of tenderness and happiness.
"Sorry to wake you up......"
"It's okay, when you open your eyes, you can see An Zhe, it's also good."
An Zhe was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head: "You're too easy to be satisfied." ”
Lying down and hugging the girl tightly, his palm caressing the girl's smooth back, and pulling up some of the coat covering Asuna's body, An Zhe gently pecked the girl's lips.
"Now, An Zhe, the hypothetical world has been raided, won't you be online in the future?"
Asuna suddenly thought of this and couldn't help but ask softly.
Hugging Asuna's slender waist and feeling the smoothness of the other party's body, An Zhe was stunned by the girl's question.
"How can you ask that? I won't get tired of playing in the imaginary world for as long as I can, not to mention, there are so many friends in it, and so many memories of you and me. ”
Asuna bit her lower lip lightly, relieved to hear the words.
"In this way, I was thinking about it, always thinking that An Zhe would leave the imaginary world because of boredom in the future, because An Zhe's own world is so colorful."
There was a hint of worry in the girl's voice, her head leaned on An Zhe's shoulder, and she subconsciously hugged the waist of some boys, revealing a heart-warming attachment.
Understood what Asuna meant, but An Zhe suddenly smiled.
"Maybe my world is indeed colorful now, but you must know that my colorful world is embellished by you. So don't think about those silly things all the time. ”
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, we'll be together forever."
"How far is it forever......"
"Farther than ever."
