With his palm covering his right eye, Kazuto Kiritani looked gloomy, not knowing what he was thinking.

At the right time, Poison Island Tsuneko, who fell to the ground softly, woke up from her deep sleep, "Strange, how did I fall asleep here?" When she saw Kiritani Kazuto not far away, she asked, "Hello, I'm Poison Island Tsutoko, may I ask ...... you are?" ”

"No, you're not her."

"Huh!? What do you mean? Am I not who I am? ”

Poison Island Tsuneko couldn't understand what Kiritani Kazuto said at all, and she wanted to ask, but saw Kiritani Kazuto turn her back and go straight to the door.

Frowning, Poison Island Tsuneko whispered, "What a weirdo." ”

Seeing that Kiritani and Kato came out of it so quickly, Coach Nishio asked curiously, "Kirito, why did you come out so quickly." ”

"I'm so tired now, can you take me home?"

"Uh, okay."

Probably seeing that Kiritani Kazuto was in a bad mood at this time, Coach Nishio simply dismissed the idea of asking, and just silently sent people back. As for the school, it's better to find a reason to fool around, Coach Nishio thought.

When he got home, Kiritani locked himself in his room and sat alone on the bed. The gaze is fixed on a certain part of the ceiling, and it cannot be taken away for a long time.

When he came back, he kept thinking, if he didn't look for Poison Island, would the ending be different? If she could have dealt with those two damn swords in her mind before she searched for Poison Island Tsuneko, wouldn't she have to die?

If, if, Kiritani and people thought about many ifs.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in the world.

"Ah, that's right, it's because of me that I'm going to die."

"It's my fault......"

I don't know how long Decadence sat until there was a knock at the door, "Ernie sauce, are you inside?" Ernie sauce? ”

After waiting at the door for a long time, seeing that no one answered inside, Naoba Kiritani found a spare key and opened the door to see, "Babble, Ernie sauce, you should respond if you are there!" Really. ”

With his mouth puffed out, Naoba Kiritani turned on the light, and then saw Kiritani and the people who were not giving up.

Hurriedly approaching, Naoba Kiritani asked worriedly, "Oni-chan, what's wrong with you, is something bad happening?" ”

"Ernie sauce, you should take a straight leaf."

"It's okay, I'm fine now."

Kiritani and people say that they are very good, but in fact they are completely inconsistent with what they say. Out of concern, Naoba Kiritani didn't quit there, but broke the casserole and asked, "Ernie sauce, if you have anything unhappy, you can tell Naoha, I can ......"

"Can't you understand what I'm saying, I said I'm fine, go out !!" The moment Kiritani and the people shouted out, he regretted it.

In any case, Naoba Kiritani is innocent, and he shouldn't be a punching bag for Kiritani and people. It's just that once you get up to something, you can't call the shots.

Kiritani and people opened their mouths and wanted to apologize to Kiritani Naoha, but when the words came to their mouths, they changed their taste, "Xiaonao, I'm in a bad mood right now, can you calm myself down." ”

Tugging at the hem of his clothes with both hands, Naoba Kiritani raised his head and forced a smile, and said, "Hmm, I understand, Ernie sauce, you are in a very bad mood now, that's why you say that kind of thing, stupid tape, Naoba can understand." ”

As he spoke, Naoba Kiritani couldn't control his trembling voice, "Okay, I'...... I'll go out now. ”

Turning around and walking out of the room quickly, Kiritani and the people were inside the door, and Kiritani Naoba was outside the door.

Obviously there is only one door apart, but the two hearts seem to be separated from each other.

……

For the next period of time, Kiritani Kazuto always avoided Kiritani Naoha, intentionally or unintentionally, he really didn't know how to face her, facing Kiritani Naoba who had been hurt by himself.

If Naoba Kiritani had beaten him and scolded him, Kiritani and the people would have been more comfortable, and they wouldn't have such a heavy sense of guilt, but-

"Ernie sauce, give, this is your lunch box at noon." Even though he was hurt and alienated by his favorite brother, Naoba Kiritani still treated him without hesitation.

It's disgusting, Kiritani and people. Blindly consuming the feelings that others pour into themselves, being negative, evasive, and unwilling to look at them directly, just like Tsumiko and Saya, it's disgusting.

"Thank you." After thanking him, Kiritani and the people grabbed the lunch box and walked out quickly.

Today, Coach Nishio asked him to be mobilized to prepare for the national competition.

That's right, Kiritani Kazuto's purpose was achieved, but the agreement with Coach Nishio was not fulfilled. Because he didn't want to miss the appointment, and he didn't know how to face Naoba Kiritani at home, he simply spent most of his time in the kendo club.

When a person is so busy, he has no time to think about it.

After changing his clothes, Kiritani and people did the simplest sword swinging training.

One, two, three, until he had a thousand strokes, he would stop and rest.

"Five hundred and sixty-seven, five hundred and sixty-eight." Vaguely, Kiritani Kazuto felt as if he had returned to the dojo of the Poison Island family, and he was training so hard at that time.

Shaking his head, Kiritani and Kazuto continued to use all their strength to slash.

"Can't stop, go on, five hundred and sixty-nine, five hundred and seventy."

When Kiritani and the people were halfway through the first group of sword swings, people from the kendo club came in one after another.

"Ah, sure enough, Kiritani was the first to arrive."

"Obviously, Tonggu is so strong, and he still works so hard, sure enough, it's not for nothing that we were picked off."

"That's right, Kiritani is so diligent, if only the old thief in the west tail could have half the diligence of Kiritani-kun."

"Don't think about it, the old thief of the West Tail is definitely the last, do you believe it?"

"Believe, how not to believe. Hey, by the way, today is the open beta day of SAO. ”

The swing of the sword stopped, and Kiritani Kazuto turned his head and asked the person he had just said, "Wait, what did you just say?" SAO Open Beta? ”

was asked loudly by Kiritani and the people.,The man was not unhappy.,On the contrary, he was honored.,"It turns out that Kiritani you also pay attention to this.,That's right.,Today is the open beta of SAO.,I queued up to buy it before.,I didn't buy it.,It's a pity.。 ”

"Open beta, today is the open beta of SAO." If it weren't for the others, he would have almost forgotten about it. Fortunately, because he has participated in the closed beta, he does not need to queue up to buy.

Anyway, I have a place, so I can just wait until the training is over and go back. Continue to go back to training, but while practicing, Kiritani and people suddenly received a phone call, and the caller was his adoptive mother.

"Moses and Moses."

"What!? Xiao Nao, she fell into SAO? ”

The phone fell to the ground, and Kiritani Kazuto was stunned, he didn't expect Naoba Kiritani to use his NERvGear to enter the death game - SAO.
