From the forty-seventh to the fifty-fifth floor, you only need to pass through the portal, and you don't waste much time, and you will soon be at Grandsam.

Walking on the streets, due to the late night, there are not many pedestrians on the road, most of them are just forging merchants running around and some NPCs who have returned late.

Under the lights on the side of the road, there are insects flying around in a constant cycle, tirelessly chasing the light.

In the left-hand yard was what was probably a freshly mowed lawn, with the smell of grass mixed with the smell of earth wafting in the wind.

The night was very quiet, as if you were alone at the moment, and the whole world was excluded.

Tighten the clothes on her body, knowing that it won't work, Natsume still does it.

In fact, before leaving, Natsume knew that there was someone watching him in the window behind him, and it should be Lizbet and Sirika who were not asleep.

I guess they were noticed during the meal, and although they were worried about themselves, they didn't ask why, probably because they didn't want to burden themselves, so they chose to remain silent.

It seems that he is still not very good at hiding his emotions, and this appearance will become a loophole sooner or later.

Emotions are often used by the enemy.

If it is not well hidden and used, it will only lead to failures and mistakes.

Natsume didn't look back at them, and after giving them permission, he sped away from Floria.

Thinking about the end, Natsume raised his head and looked at the building in front of him that had been here several times, but he didn't expect that he would have to enter here repeatedly during this time, and the development of things would really not be what people wanted.

Walk forward. Natsume, who thought he would be stopped, saw two young men standing at the door.

They were captain-level members who were dissatisfied with Natsume's attitude that day. Only this time the two didn't make it difficult. Instead, he hurriedly greeted Natsume after seeing him.

"The regimental commander knew that you would come, and ordered us to meet you here."

"Please go this way."

Natsume was very surprised by the difference in attitude, but surprise was surprise, he didn't freeze in place, but followed them inside.

On the way, a young man in front of him glanced at Natsume.

"The recent Killing Guild has all stopped, and it's all thanks to you, one person facing more than twenty players. Several high-level players can get out of the way, which is really amazing. ”

I see.

Natsume echoed them with some amusement.

"It's not awesome."

These two people did not respect themselves, but after perceiving the gap between the two, they did not dare to provoke again.

They are afraid of themselves, of sniping at them by this red player.

That is, they are courting this side.

However, Natsume felt that it had nothing to do with it at all, and for him, the actions and lives of these people had nothing to do with him.

To put it bluntly, Natsume didn't care about their provocations, and he didn't have the idea of sniping them after seeing them in the hunting area. Didn't care about them at all.

In fact, Natsume's target is clearly to be a 'member of the Murder Guild', and other people. He won't do anything.

Pretending to be listening to them, Natsume was observing his surroundings at the same time.

This path is different from the last one, but it is a different one.

At the end of the day, instead of an office, there is a large courtyard.

Was it the garden that I saw through the glass that day?

Next to the fountain, the man standing there was looking at the moon, and he turned his head only after noticing someone coming in.

Watching the two people retreat, Natsume said sarcastically

"You're really idle, Heathcliff."

"That's the character's name, you don't have to call me that, don't you know best?"

“―――？！”

Discovered?

Even though he was in the circle, Natsume still held the hilt of the sword with his right hand.

"What's the panic? Do you think that a stranger suddenly appears in a game you designed, and I don't know it? The system has not been discovered, but the human brain can find it, and it is really remarkable that it can invade the independent terminal host. ”

Of course, Natsume didn't know about that, but he knew that he was here, and it must have been with the help of the 'Apocalypse Frame'.

And Hitzcliff, no, it was Akihiko Kayaba who was able to discover this loophole, which means that he already knew.

It's not what that idiot said.

Lu Mingming explained, 'Everything is ready for you!' Don't worry! But it turned out to be caught by the game design, which is this 'don't have to worry'?

Or is it that?

Was the recording intentional?

There is no point in guessing, and the rest needs to be answered by Akihiko Kayaba.

"Don't worry, I have no intention of excluding you from this world, after all, you are also quite interesting. If you use that skill without worrying about the collapse of the character, can a human be able to react that way? ”

"Who knows, just do your best, so be it."

"Humans are usually able to exert less than half of their abilities, and even in stealth games, the player's physical fitness has a certain relationship with the game character. If you continue to use that skill, you won't have to wait for NERvGear to destroy your brain, your body will collapse under that reaction, and you will be severely damaged everywhere. ”

"Is that so??"

The premise is that you have a body in the real world of SAO.

"What a cold reaction, so, what do you think of the world?"

"Opinion?"

As a player, NERvGear will directly destroy the player's brain and cause them to die once their HP reaches zero, which was a mistake from the start.

Game of Death?

No kidding.

As everyone else says, no one person can decide the life and death of others.

Although it is the player's responsibility to be killed by monsters in the game, the system itself is too ruthless to determine death, and the act of killing is completely meaningless.

Bored.

Boring.

There are no reasons and no consequences.

Akihiko Aoba is a genius, but an extreme genius.

Natsume smiled.

"It's stupid as a death game."

"It's a bit of a powerful answer that's too sincere."

Akihiko Kayaba looked at everything in front of him, pointing to the top of his head.

"Then you'll see what you think is the end of what you think is a stupid game, if you can do it."

"What do you mean?"

"It doesn't make sense, since you're here, it means that you want to join the Blood Alliance Knights."

"Will you give me a second option?"

"No, it won't."

Simple answer.

Natsume could only accept it reluctantly.

At this time, Akihiko Kayaba walked into the room and left a sentence at the same time.

"Wait for the interesting stories to come."

Players who go beyond the limit, bring death to the game, when will the end that everyone expects? (To be continued......)
