"I'm really, bastard."

"I've always been thinking about myself, and I've never changed."

My heart was a little choked, and my eyes seemed to be a little sour.

"Asuna, I want to see you."

……

Forest House.

He Yuan glanced at Asuna's location on the friend page, took a deep breath, and gently knocked on them.

"Squeak!"

"I'm back."

Looking at the chestnut-haired girl in front of her, the thousand words in her mind finally converged into these four words.

"Well, welcome home."

Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Asuna smiled.

Then, he threw himself into He Yuan's arms and cried loudly.

"Sorry to worry you."

"Hmm," Asuna raised her head, looked at He Yuan and said, "I'm fine, He Yuan is fine." ”

"Oh yes," Asuna broke free from He Yuan's arms and hurried into the kitchen.

"Ah~~ It's all blame He Yuan for not being good, my cooking is ......"

……

Sitting at the dining table, watching Asuna busy in the kitchen, He Yuan's heart felt an unprecedented tranquility.

Since when did you stop being less like yourself?

The arrogance of the first sword, the fear of death, the selfishness of wanting to leave behind their companions, and the hesitation of the unknown road ahead.

Because of his arrogance, he was unscrupulous, and he broke directly into the labyrinth area and challenged the boss alone.

Because of fear, even if his strength far surpassed that of Yierfang, he couldn't fight back, and finally ran away.

Because of selfishness, he regarded Asuna as a burden and wanted to leave Asuna alone.

Because of the hesitation, in the face of Heathcliff, the performance was really bad.

"Hey, you're done."

Asuna's voice changed back to He Yuan's thoughts.

Watching Asuna bring the food to the table and sit opposite him, He Yuan smiled slightly, folded his hands, and sandwiched his chopsticks between his thumb and index finger.

"I'm moving."

Putting everything he had before aside, He Yuan slowly enjoyed this warm moment with Asuna.

Satisfied.

I was originally a poor dick, but I was lucky to get the core fragment of the "main god", and I changed from a fart to a tall open-hanging family in an instant.

It's great to be able to enter Sword Art Online and experience AR games.

It's great to meet you at your most vulnerable time and get your commitment.

It's great to be able to believe in me all the time, even if I'm besieged by people, and they say that they are cheaters who will never leave me.

It's great to be able to email me so often and worry about me during the days I've been missing.

It's really, really nice to meet you and like you......

"Well, just eat, eat, keep staring at me to see what you're doing."

Maybe He Yuan's gaze was too piercing, which made Asuna at a loss, and she couldn't help but scold He Yuan.

"Hehe, who made Asuna so beautiful, I can't get enough of it."

"Poof!"

In an instant, Asuna's face was as red as a ripe lobster, and there was hot air on the top of her head.

"Look, can't see enough of anything...... Too, too exaggerated. ”

"Asuna."

Looking at the shy Asuna, He Yuan suddenly said.

"Huh? What's wrong. ”

"I promise you, I'll take a complete run of this game as soon as possible, kill Akihiko Spearfield, and bring Asuna back to your world."

"Well, I believe you." He Yuan's sudden seriousness made Asuna stunned for a moment, and immediately opened her mouth for affirmation.

Then, Asuna stood up, walked behind He Yuan, and wrapped her arms around He Yuan's neck.

"It's just that, don't forget our agreement, when my strength is increased to the point that it is not a burden, you must remember to pull me into the team."

"Well, I won't forget."

……

Time is like flowing water, never standing still for anyone.

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed.

It's been 10 months since December 2022, when 10,000 players were trapped in Love Ngolant.

Now, thanks to the efforts of the players, they have reached the thirty-fifth floor, more than one-third of the total number of layers.

Among them, the Blood Alliance Knights, under the leadership of Asuna, are unbeatable and have been called the "First Guild" by the majority of players. ”

And Asuna, in addition to the title of "flash", her strong strength and courage to dare to fight and rush in the face of the boss of the guard inspire everyone in the strategy group.

And because the strategy has never failed, it is also respected by players as the "ghost of the strategy." ”

In addition, other guilds, such as Diabel's "Knight" guild, "Holy Dragon Alliance" guild, "Wind Forest Volcano" guild, "Moonlit Night Black Cat Regiment" guild, etc., have all performed well.

Of course, this is only for the average player.

In fact, the high-level players have their own scales in their hearts.

First of all, the Knights of the Blood Alliance is a well-deserved first, and it is the strongest guild that can attack and defend the boss alone.

Below, it is Diabel's "Knight" Guild, but there are only a few people who can participate in the boss strategy battle of Diabel and the Tooth King.

Then, because of the unscrupulous means of its members to become stronger, most of them are yellow names, which is shameful for the players.

After that, it was Klein of the Wind Forest Volcano, Kirito and Xin of the Moonlit Night Black Cat Group, and these two guilds also became famous because of the characters who could enter the strategy group.

As for He Yuan, the strength of his solo strategy for the 25th layer of the BOSS also makes players look up.

Moreover, although He Yuan bears the name of a "cheater", as He Yuan said, from beginning to end, he only killed monsters to level up, and did not grab task resources or anything.

Therefore, for He Yuan, most of the members of the strategy group are still relatively friendly, as long as He Yuan participates in the BOSS Raiders, the sense of security is leveraged.

……

"Thank you, Uncle La."

On the first layer of Ayn Grant, He Yuan finally completed a "cow's counterattack" task again and took over the cream from Uncle Ranch.

"Alright, the materials are finally fully assembled."

Putting the cream into the backpack, He Yuan smiled slightly, and next, he needed to practice slowly.

September is a special day for He Yuan, who is a fan of swords.

Because, Asuna's birthday is September 30th.

So, in order to surprise Asuna, He Yuan decided to use his so-called "cooking" skills to make a birthday cake for Asuna.

Anyway, as long as it's not propped, there's no problem.

Of course, because He Yuan didn't know how to make cakes at all, he went to Kirito to ask for Argo's contact information, and asked for a guide to making birthday cakes at a high price.

After more than ten days of preparation, all the materials were finally ready.

Moreover, for fear that he would not be able to do it well, He Yuan also did many more tasks, and the materials he made up were enough for him to contact dozens of times.
