It's been three months since the first floor was opened.

Because the first layer of the defending boss was successfully defeated, all players saw hope, people's enthusiasm for leveling gradually increased, and the overall strength of players was also improving.

After the first layer of the defending boss was defeated, the Raiders team was left behind and renamed the Raiders group. Composed of top players throughout Ayn Grant, it specializes in tackling bosses and is hailed as the hope of liberation.

Because the strategy group has the ability values of the bosses of each layer mastered by Yinliuyan, they attack layer after layer with very small casualties and rapid speed. In just three months, he reached the seventeenth floor.

In every boss battle, Yin Liuyan always rushes to the front, and together with the white fox Liuli, he makes a huge contribution in the battle and makes his position clear. Let people understand that SAO turning into a death game is all the problem of Akihiko Aoba, and it has nothing to do with him.

Gradually, the hostility of those who were originally hostile to him has disappeared, and all that remains is respect for the creator of this world.

In the Raiders group, Ginryukan has always been in a leading position, but no one is dissatisfied. Because of the unique sword skills of Yin Liuyan and the white fox glass, the name of "White Fox Black Sword" slowly spread.

Eleventh Floor of Ayn Grant, Taft.

"Ah, I'm so tired." In a tavern in Taft, Ginliuyan made a tired voice and lay motionless on the table. On the side, the white fox Liuli used his tail to playfully sweep the face of the silver willow. "There's been a lot going on lately."

"No way, who let you know a lot of information, the strength is still so strong, the capable person works hard." Kirito on the side quipped.

"You're embarrassed to say that if it weren't for getting you that fairy queen's sword, I wouldn't be so tired." Yinliu glared viciously at Kirito who was talking coldly.

"Well, ahhaha, by the way, have you heard, it seems that a new guild is going to join the strategy group." Kirito hurriedly interrupted, showing a very interested look.

"Of course, it seems that the vice president of that guild will bring someone to report to the strategy group today." Yin Liuyan rolled her eyes.

Although he knew that Kirito was changing the subject, Ginryukin didn't take it to heart and answered his question instead.

"Why the vice president?" Kirito was a little curious. "What about their president?"

"I heard that their president was busy with a task and couldn't leave, so I asked the vice president to bring someone here."

"So, what's the name of that guild?"

"It seems to be called...... The Knights of the Blood Pact are coming. ”

Soon in the afternoon, Kirito and Ginryuki returned to the temporary residence of the Raiders on the seventeenth floor, preparing to meet the new guild called the Blood Alliance Knights.

"Deputy Head of the Blood Alliance Knights, Asuna led his members to report for duty."

As soon as the two of them returned to the station, they saw a familiar rapian.

"Asuna? You're the vice president of this new guild? Yin Liuyan looked a little surprised.

"What, can't you?" Asuna said angrily.

"Of course not, it's just a bit of a surprise, after all, you rejected so many guilds, I thought you were going to be a lone player like Kirito."

"Because I was too annoyed to be invited, I planned to join a guild casually, and it happened that the head of the group came to invite me at that time. I saw that he was not bad, so I agreed. Asuna explained.

"yes, how are you doing, don't tell me it's better to just buy bread to eat." Ginryukan handed Asuna a cup of tea.

"It's okay, thanks to you. After all, you made me learn to live in this world, and if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I might have fallen into a daze by now. ”

Asuna took the tea and took a sip with a faint smile on her face, which looked so beautiful in the sunlight.

"For example, crazy leveling is not a good rest, only gnawing on hard bread and so on?" Silverware quipped.

Asuna's face flushed, apparently remembering the night that had changed her.

"This ...... The ......" Asuna stammered and couldn't speak, showing some embarrassment, and the expression on her face was indescribably cute.

Yinliu sneered and waved his hand, "Forget it, I won't tease you, although it's fun to tease you." ”

"I found out that you are a real bad person!"

Asuna's face flushed and her face bulged into a bun, looking cute and funny.

"Get down to business, get down to business, can you contact your president and make an appointment for us to meet, after all, do I need to recognize someone."

"Commander, he said he could come to this station tomorrow." As soon as Asuna sent out the message, she got a response.

"Tomorrow, yes, I'll take you to meet the members of the strategy team first. I won't introduce this one in black. Ginryuki pointed to Kirito, who had no sense of existence since just now.

"Hey, you're going too far!" Kirito shouted angrily.

Ignoring Kirito, Ginryukin turned his head to Asuna and asked, "By the way, what's the name of your leader?" ”

"Heathcliff. This is the name of the regiment commander. ”

"Heathcliff." Yin Liuyan touched his chin.

"Hey, don't ignore me!"

“……”

"Hey !!" Poor Kirito is still ignored. I could only watch Yin Liuyan and Asuna talking and laughing.

……

The next afternoon.

"Silver, are you there? The regimental commander came. Asuna opened the door to the station and saw Ginryuki who was sorting out information.

Silverware heard Asuna's voice and looked up in the direction of the door.

Behind him, a *** in a red knight's uniform was there.

The man was holding a cross-shaped shield, a white sword tucked on the inside of the shield, and a plain face was serious and serious, giving people a very reliable feeling.

When Yin Liuyan saw this person, his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

"Is this the head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, Heathcliff...... He's a strong man. Yin Liuyan thought to herself.

"Moreover, the posture of this weapon, and the feeling that comes from the bottom of my heart when I see his face......"

Yin Liuyan stood up and approached the two of them.

"This is the leader of the Blood Alliance Knights, please be seated." Ginryukan stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.

"Thank you." A magnetic voice came from Heathcliff's mouth, and he sat down in his chair.

"Asuna, you go out first, I have something to talk to your head about." Ginryo turned his head and said to Asuna.

"Well, why? What do you need to avoid me? Asuna was a little surprised.

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of how the Blood Alliance Knights will cooperate in the future of the strategy group, Kiriren and Klein are both outside, let's meet them." A smile spread across Ginry's face, so Asuna couldn't see anything wrong.

"It's inexplicable." Asuna was a little confused, but she went out to find Kirito and them.

"Then let's start talking about the strategy of this layer of bosses, and talk about how your Blood Alliance Knights cooperate with us in the strategy." Seeing Asuna go out, Ginliuyan turned around and talked to Heathcliff with her hands behind her back.

"Regarding this, there are 20 people in our Blood Alliance Knights who can participate in the boss strategy, of which 15 can join the team that attracts the hatred of the boss, and the remaining 5 people, including Asuna, will become the main attacker." Heathcliff said unhurriedly.

"Any questions?"

"Absolutely, do you have any thoughts on Ayn Grant? Head of Heathcliff. ”

"It's a perfect world, a world that's different from reality. Although it's now a game of death, other than that, it's really good. Heathcliff had a smile on his face.

"But does that make any sense?" Heathcliff was a little confused.

"Absolutely!" Ginryukan smiled as well.

"He let me confirm one thing."

"Oh? What do you seem a little happy about? ”

"I will answer this question in one sentence." Silverruff paused, then slowly uttered something that made Heatscliffe's face change suddenly.

"Long time no see, my dear brother, Akihiko Kayaba!"
