Every woman is born with a maternal radiance, even Asuna, no exception, looking at Asuna who is playing with Yui, Mouton leans back on the balcony seat, drinking tea leisurely.
The growth rate of the relationship between Asuna and Yui can only be described as terrifying, yesterday they could only be described as strangers, and today ...... The two of them were glued together almost all day, and even Mouton himself felt a sense of neglect.
Seeing that it was not early, Mouton put down the teacup in his hand and shouted, "Asuna, it's time to make dinner." ”
"Okay, I got it." Touching Yui's little head affectionately, Asuna squatted down and said softly: "Yui, let's go play with Dad first, Mom is going to cook first." ”
"Yes, Mom."
With her big sparkling eyes blinking, Yui nodded obediently and ran to the balcony with a smile.
"Daddy...... Hold ......"
"Hug, hug." Mouton touched Yui's little head, stretched out his hand to hold Yui in his arms, and said, "Yui, after eating later, let's go fishing, okay?" ”
"Fishing?" Yui tilted her little head and looked at Mouton, her big round eyes blinking and blinking, a little puzzled.
"Hmm...... It's a very leisurely event, do you want to go? ”
"Wherever Mom and Dad go, Yui goes." The small arm wrapped around Mouton's arm, and Yui said in a crunchy voice.
"Yui ......" Mouton smiled heartily on his face, hugged Yui lightly, and looked into the distance a little distracted.
It's been a year and a half since Mouton first crossed over to the world of SAO, and in the past year and a half, Mouton has become accustomed to almost all the lifestyles in SAO, and if it weren't for the constant existence of the shuttle system, Mouton would have almost forgotten what he was here for.
"Time...... It's really able to smooth out people's edges and corners......"
Looking at her father who was stuck in her thoughts, Yui didn't speak, just stared at her father with wide eyes.
Asuna, who had been busy in the kitchen, also made dinner at this time, and looking at the silent two outside, Asuna shouted with a happy smile, "Yui, Mouton, it's time to eat." ”
"Here we are." When he came back to his senses, Mouton answered, hugged Yui, and Mouton rubbed Yui's face with his face and said, "Yui, it's time to eat." ”
"Uh-huh."
The three of them sat down at the table and ate slowly.
"Mouton, the president sent an email saying that he had brought people into the labyrinth area to explore in the past few days, so should we stay here like this?" Asuna asked, after eating a little, putting down the chopsticks in her hand.
"If you can rest more, rest more, and with Heathcliff here, I don't think anything will go wrong." Mouton thought for a moment and replied.
"yes, that's fine."
Asuna caressed one of the hands on her chest and gradually drooped, Yui turned her head to look at the two of them, and picked up chopsticks to give Asuna a crystal clear fish meat.
"Mom, try this, it tastes good."
Looking at the fish in the bowl, Asuna smiled and finished eating before saying, "Yui is really heartbroken for her mother." ”
"Yes, yes, as a father, I was ignored like this, and my heart hurts."
Mouton clutched his chest, looking sad, and Asuna covered her mouth and smiled.
"Now, Dad, Yui will clip it to you too, don't be heartbroken." Yui said as she took the food and put it in the chopsticks.
"Haha."
"Yui, your dad is pretending, this guy likes to pretend now."
"Hmm......"
Bursts of laughter erupted from time to time in Mouton's house, and the three of them quickly finished their meal and went out.
The location of the target is, of course, the lake in the distance.
Yui rides on Mouton's neck, and Asuna walks beside her, fishing gear in her hand.
"It's evening, and I'm still fishing, you can figure it out."
Asuna couldn't help but roll her eyes when she thought of Mouton's previous proposal.
"Well...... It doesn't have any effect, so it's just a moderate amount of exercise after cooking. ”
After Mouton finished speaking, he added: "Yui, you said it right?" ”
"Uh-huh, Yui thinks Dad has a point."
"You two!" Asuna felt that she had lost her strength all of a sudden, and she bent her waist, and was a little defeated by the two.
……
On the edge of the wide lake, a breeze was blowing, and the fishing rod was inserted aside, saying that they were coming to fish, but the three of them played a small game on the side.
After making a fuss for a while, Mouton and Asuna sat together, looking at Yui who was already lying next to her and asleep, Asuna hesitated for a moment before asking, "Mouton-kun, should we go to find Yui's family?" With such a young child scattered, her family would surely be worried. ”
"This ......" Mouton didn't know how to answer for a while, Yui is an intelligent AI, naturally she has no family, and now the closest people are probably only herself and Asuna.
But Asuna didn't know Yui's identity, and Mouton didn't say it, which is why Asuna said that.
"...... Kiri," Asuna took Mouton's arm and watched quietly, waiting for Mouton's reply.
"Let's try it, then." Mouton was silent for a few seconds before replying with a smile.
"Wait! Asuna, what did you call me before? ”
Mouton remembered what Asuna had called herself.
"Kiri...... Don't Mouton-kun like that? Asuna asked, looking into Mouton's dark eyes.
"No, it's just, it's just that I'm a little surprised to hear Asuna call me that way." Mouton waved his hand, and a smile immediately spread across his face: "I like that very much." ”
"Hmm." Asuna pursed her lips and smiled, nodding her little head heavily.
Looking at the sky that was about to become night, Mouton stood up and gently hugged Yui into his arms, and said, "I slept so sweetly, Asuna, let's go home." ”
"I'm going to pack up my fishing gear." Asuna answered, and after running over and putting away all the fishing gear, the three of them walked towards their home.
……
The next morning, Mouton appeared on the first floor, starting the town, with Yui and Asuna on his back.
"I haven't been here since I left the starting town." Mouton looked at the buildings around him and sighed in his heart.
"Me ...... too"
"Let's start here, Yui, do you think there are any familiar buildings nearby?"
Asuna looked sideways at Yui, who was being carried on Mouton's back, and gestured around.
"I don't know ......"
Yui shook her little head, indicating that she didn't remember these things at all.
"Let's take a look around first."
"Yes."
In the starting town, the army is stationed on this level, maintaining the usual law and order, and the situation that originally made the residents of the first layer pay taxes did not happen because Tilberu was in the army.
So the overall environment of the first layer is much better than in the original book.
Located at the mouth of the alleyway of the Central Bazaar, the three of Mouton and Asuna and Yui have already walked here.
Looking at the children who ran around from time to time, Yui, who had not spoken much, suddenly moved at this time!
Asuna noticed Yui's expression at the first time, and immediately asked, "Yui, did you remember something?" ”
"Everybody...... Everyone's hearts ......" Yui reached out and grabbed the sky, as if trying to hold something, and her face also appeared a little painful at this moment.
"Yui!"
"I ...... I don't live here, I've been alone in a dark place, I've been alone......" Mouton trembled, turned his head slightly, looked at Yui who buried his little head behind his back, and sighed, is this, do you recall some fragments......
"Squeak squeak ......"
The moment Yui was abnormal, Mouton had already put Yui off his back, looking at Yui's abruptly dilated black pupils, Asuna had just grabbed Yui's little hand, and bursts of piercing electric interference suddenly sounded in the ears of the three of them.
"What the hell is going on......"
Asuna hugged Yui, worried.
"Mom, Dad, Yui is so scared......"
Seeing that she was held in Asuna's arms, but a small hand grabbed Yui at the corner of her clothes, Mouton squatted down and gently stroked Yui's forehead: "Don't be afraid, Yui, Mom and Dad are here." ”
"Mommy ......" Yui shuddered and fell headlong into Asuna's arms and lost consciousness.
Mouton paused slightly, and muttered, "Asuna, I have something to ...... I'm going to talk to you ......"
"Kiri, what are you going to say......"
Asuna's heart was all on Yui, who was unconscious.
"About Yui."
"Yui's?!"
