Time flies, and a month has passed since the Sword Art Online world, that is, SAO, was launched.

Ye Yang and Asuna, who had just returned from leveling up outside, heard the news spread throughout the town that someone was going to hold a boss strategy meeting.

Ye Yang still has the same expression, there is no change, but thinking about it, it is strange that for something that he has known for a long time, there will be mood fluctuations.

It's just that this news reminds him of one thing, and that is that he has been in this world for a long time.

Asuna was a little excited, hurriedly walked to a trading stall, patted the stall player on the shoulder and asked, "Hey, is it true that they said that they are going to hold a boss strategy meeting?" ”

The stall owner, who was chatting with a player next to him, was startled, and turned around to find that there was a big beautiful woman in front of the stall. Although he was impressed by Asuna's beauty, it was just his long-term professionalism that made him ask the first sentence: "What do you want?" ”

"Let me ask you, is it true that they said they were going to hold a boss strategy meeting?"

"It's true, it's in that semi-circular staircase, and it's tomorrow. But if you're low-level, I'd advise you, it's better not to go.

Those of us who have no talent are not as good as those people, the level is low, and to fight the boss is to die, rather than this, it is better to focus on improving the strength......" The stall owner nodded, and then kept babbling endlessly.

Probably the content is that I see that your girl is so cute, and her strength is definitely not strong, so for the sake of life, don't go there. These things should be done by those who have the power......

"Thanks, bye." After realizing that it was true news, Asuna left the stall directly.

Seeing that a high-quality beauty that he finally saw ran away, the stall owner wanted to persuade a few words, but was stopped by the player next to him.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"What? I don't want her to die.

You know, if you die in this world, you're really dead, and we're just newbies, not those closed beta players. Wouldn't it be nice to let someone who has the power do this kind of dangerous thing......"

Hearing this man's words, a trace of disdain flashed in the player's eyes.

If everyone thinks like you, then we'll never get out of this game, you're just giving yourself a high-sounding excuse for cowardice.

It's just that he also knows that he is the same kind of person as him, and he doesn't have the courage to rush to the forefront.

Thinking of the high spirits when he first entered the game, to the self who witnessed his teammates die in front of him a few days ago, and then he could no longer muster up the courage to fight, and then thought of the two people who had just passed by, he suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

I'm laughing at you, even though I'm laughing at you?

Seeing that the "friend" in front of him, who had only known him for a few days, was still chattering, this person suddenly felt bored, and a nameless fire gushed out from the bottom of his heart, and roared: "Enough! ”

The man setting up the stall was taken aback by this roar, and then immediately reacted: "What are you doing." ”

"What am I doing?

I've had enough of waiting for death in the town, I'm going to go to the boss strategy meeting, and I'm going to die! ”

The player looked at his former "friend" with disdain.

"I'm just a coward with no skills, maybe to go into battle is to die, but so what? Let me be an ordinary merchant player in this town like this and wait for death, Lao Tzu can't do it!

You just wait here slowly, wait! ”

After speaking, he seemed to remember what else to say, with a hint of mockery on his face: "By the way, the two players who you thought were going to die just now, one was Swordless Ye Yang, and the other was Flash Asuna." ”

After saying these words, he turned around and walked away very neatly, leaving only the stall player with a somewhat dull face.

"Open...... What are you kidding, those two are swordless and flashy! The stall owner who was left behind couldn't believe it.

No Sword and Flash are the nicknames given to Ye Yang and Asuna by other players who have seen them fight during this time.

Ye Yang is because he never uses any systematic sword skills, and even fights directly with his bare hands most of the time, so he is called "no sword" by players who do good things, which means people who don't need to use a sword.

Asuna's "flash" is because of her weapons and fighting style.

Under Ye Yang's deliberate cultivation, coupled with the increase in agility brought by weapons, Asuna can now use high-speed and high-precision slashes that ordinary people can't see, and when she went to strengthen the equipment, the forger saw Asuna's flickering light and spread it, giving her such a title.

Because even if he doesn't use sword skills, Ye Yang can fight very easily, and even kill some ordinary monsters in seconds when he is bare-handed. And Asuna is because of her powerful weapon.

Compared with other equipment in the early stage, the flickering light is a big step ahead just by attacking, and the upper limit of the number of enhancements is linked to Asuna's level, plus the increase in strength and agility will also increase with the level.

As a result of these bonuses, Asuna's attack power is almost twice that of a normal player.

It is precisely because of this that Ye Yang and Asuna are also considered by many to be the "strongest players" within SAO.

Regarding this, Ye Yang was noncommittal.

If he, the "authority dog", can't be called the strongest, then who else?

For his title, Ye Yang can only sigh "There are people who are idle and hurt at any time", after all, they were called out and recognized, and he could only be glad that he was not called "the most sword" or anything like that......

And Asuna's title made him feel that some things were inevitable.

……

"Now, Ye Yang, do you want to go to the strategy meeting of that boss?"

Ye Yang glanced at Asuna, although Asuna was asking him, how could his excitement hide from him who had been practicing with her for more than half a month.

BOSS strategy meeting,Before you know it, it's coming to this point in time.。

In fact, before this, he figured out the location of the boss, if he wanted to kill the boss, then the first layer had already passed, but he didn't think it was necessary, and at the same time he didn't tell Asuna, just didn't find out.

"Do you want to go?"

"What, don't you mean you don't want to go? If we don't beat this 'game', we won't be able to go back. ”

Seeing the face that was close at hand, Ye Yang smiled slightly and pointed with his finger.

Asuna's face flushed, and she hurriedly stepped back, thinking to herself: This guy ......

"Go back......" Go back, these two words reminded him of some bad things.

Asuna was silent.

Back to reality? If I do go back, then I will ...... with him

"Go ahead." Ye Yang said suddenly.

"Huh?" Asuna was stunned.

"I said go ahead.

Since you want to go, then go ahead, I will be with you too, this world will end sooner or later. Ye Yang said with a smile.

"Oh." Asuna suddenly felt a little reluctant to go.

And Ye Yang didn't know why, he didn't speak.

The two of them walked in silence, and slowly, they returned to the rented house in this town.
