"Did you lose..."

On the bed, the young man in white leaned against the head of the bed, and he had just woken up from the darkness and looked at the roof flatly, but his expression was not remorseful or unwilling.

Asuna, who was sitting on the chair next to the bed, carefully supported Ye Ran's body, Ye Ran was smashed to the wall by Shirokuma's unknown sword, and at least half of the bones of the entire body were broken.

"What happened to Shirokumar, do you know what happened?"

Kirito, who was leaning against the wall, hurried to the hotel where Ye Ran was after comforting Xia Xing and falling asleep, and said with a straight face.

The black cat group on the moonlit night was completely wiped out except for luck, although Kirito knew that Ye Ran could not blame Ye Ran, but if humans were such rational creatures, then there was no need to be called humans, his heart was still congested, and of course his tone was not very good.

"You should have guessed it, the magic sword awakens." Ye Ran sat quietly at the head of the bed, the sharp pain in his body from time to time reminded him that his injuries in this battle were heavier than any previous battles, although he understood that he was not completely losing to Shirokuma, he was losing to an unknown force.

But, losing is losing.

If you lose, it means that you are not strong enough, you are still weak, and you are not qualified to complain about anything.

The only thing that can be done is to become stronger, stronger, stronger.

He just said lightly: "I received this task a long time ago, and now Shirokumar has accepted his fate and awakened as the magic sword Kirkod, that's all..."

Originally, Ye Ran had rushed there as soon as possible, but Ye Ran didn't expect that this game actually had a corridor crystal, a convenient prop that could teleport multiple people at a fixed point.

Kirito's face was gloomy, his fists clenched, and he didn't speak.

Boom!

Suddenly, he slammed his fist against the wall and turned to leave the room without looking back.

Alas...

Asuna, who was watching quietly, suddenly sighed, this time the remaining players were able to return, to be honest, it was thanks to Ye Ran's timely arrival, otherwise, with the strength that Shirokumar showed at that time, it was only a matter of time before the remaining people were completely annihilated.

The problem is that maybe at that time they put all their hopes on Ye Ran, but the sadness in their hearts afterwards made people unable to restrain themselves at all.

Kirito's performance was not bad, but the other players didn't like Ye Ran very well.

At that time, if it weren't for Asuna trying her best to protect Ye Ran, it is unknown what kind of treatment Ye Ran would have suffered.

Propping himself up to the edge of the bed and getting out of bed, he waved his hand to stop Asuna's support, put on the white coat that was set aside, and hung up his sword.

“……”

Asuna stood up straight, watching the young man slowly dressing, and had all kinds of words in her heart that she wanted to ask Ye Ran, but for some reason, all these words were blocked in her mouth and couldn't speak.

Asuna once speculated and imagined when she was bored, what kind of performance would she have when she saw Ye Ran?

Angrily scolded him, why did he disappear silently for half a year?

Anxious waiting?

Or is it blushing and heartbeat at the sight of him and unable to speak?

None of them.

She just felt that compared to half a year ago, Ye Ran was more pure, whether it was the light in her eyes or the temperament of the whole person.

The rest didn't seem to change at all.

So she was relieved.

He's still him.

So she didn't ask Ye Ran where he disappeared in the past six months.

She just looked at Ye Ran and felt that there was still hope for this game.

Just as Ye Ran appeared at a critical moment.

Is there no hint for a failed task?

Ye Ran felt a little inexplicable about the system attached to him, generally speaking, it is normal for victory to be rewarded and defeat to be punished, but the system on Ye Ran's body, even if the task failed, he was not punished.

Strange system.

Ignoring the doubts that came up, he turned his head to look at Asuna who was waiting on the side, and said with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "Although this sentence came a little late, but, it's been a long time, Asuna." ”

"Well, it's been a long time, Ye Ran."

The girl's face flushed slightly, and with a smile that Ye Ran couldn't understand, she nodded and smiled.

Pushing open the door, endless ice objects occupied Ye Ran's field of vision, and under the illumination of the light, these ice objects refracted a magnificent light.

After hearing what Asuna said about what happened after she fell unconscious, Ye Ran was just silent for a while, and then shook her head and asked Asuna to stop caring about Xiluokuma's affairs.

"What's next?"

The two walked side by side on the street, and the other remaining players had already returned to their positions, only Asuna had temporarily put down the front-line strategy for the time being, and had been taking care of Ye Ran since yesterday.

"Let's level up first... Nothing else. ”

When passing by a small stall, Ye Ran bent down to buy some things, of course, the leveling that Ye Ran said was different from Asuna's, Ye Ran's leveling was purely to earn sword yuan, in the past half a year of cultivation, Ye Ran still had not broken through the Ming Sword Realm, and the level given by the system was ambiguous, and Ye Ran couldn't even speculate.

"In that case... Do you want to come to our guild?! ”

Asuna's eyes suddenly glowed, and she couldn't help grabbing Ye Ran's hand and looking at Ye Ran hopefully.

"I got my kindness, but the bugs on my body are still there, and I can't add a guild at all."

Ye Ran shook his head and rejected Asuna's proposal, after all, the system functions on his body were very different from those of the players.

Letting go of Ye Ran's hand with some disappointment, Asuna looked at Ye Ran's movements with some curiosity and asked, "You buy these powders?" ”

"Huh? Condiments..."

Ye Ran picked up the transparent pouch in his hand and shook it in front of Asuna, but he didn't notice that Asuna's eyes lit up.

"Are these things condiments too? What a taste, what a taste! I've been collecting these things for a long time! ”

"Huh? cumin flavor..."

Burst... Grabbing Ye Ran's hand, Asuna looked at Ye Ran with pleading tears in her eyes, although she had begun to learn cooking skills for a while, but the dishes she made could only be called edible, and they could not be compared with Ye Ran's craftsmanship at all.

"Hmm~"

The bad feeling in Ye Ran's heart suddenly came up, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly and asked, "Want to eat?" ”

"Uh-huh."

"How about it~ It's not impossible to ...... if you meow"

"Meow!"

Asuna, who meowed without hesitation, now dominated all her thoughts with appetite compared to self-esteem or something.

"Damn... What did that guy ask the deputy head to do! ”

The two young men in armor not far away looked at Ye Ran with an angry expression, and then quickly took a screenshot to commemorate it, and then sent such a message in the guild chat system.

1: It's too much to let the deputy head learn to meow!

2: What! What does that guy do with my goddess!! It's so enviable... No, angry!

3: So, do you have a photo?

4:>>1 With what I know about you, post the picture, or else...

5:>>3 You're going in too fast! But ask for photos.

6: Anyway, let's start with an explosion! Ye Ran!

7: Explode!

8: Explode!

…

15: The curse is over, so, what about the photo?

16:>>6Hey! Want to fish in troubled waters!

17: Alright, stick.

18: Oooooooooooooooo With this, O my goddess, black bread is enough to outweigh any earthly delicacy!!

19: Oooooooooo

20: Thank you to the Knights of the Blood Pact who have kept me alive until now, Dad, Mom, and my son are so good that they are alive until now.

……

29: Huh? National idol Lori, Celica discovered! Oh? The goddess doesn't seem to be in a very good mood......

30: That's unfolding too fast!

31: Well deserved!

32: You're actually touching Celica's head!!! Don't stop me, bastard, let me shoot him, oh, go wild, my destiny!

33:>>32 on it!!

34:>>32 Kill him!!!!

……

40: Now, I was thinking... The goddess was unhappy because Ye Ran touched Silica's head, so...

41:>>40Don't say it, bastard!

42:>>40Don't say it!! Woo-ah...

43: Don't make such imprudent statements! I was almost removed from this world! I'm off chatting...

44: The world is too dark, and I am closed.
