You can't lose, you can't win.

Either way, it seems a little boring, and originally, the battle with Kirito is an abnormal situation.

Natsume really doesn't want to be a hero, he's not good at playing the kind of 'bright and righteous' role, and the things he once dreamed of seem a little stupid now when he grows up.

Save others?

That is the right of the owner, not the dream of the lost.

Not everyone can become a hero, and not everyone can hope for a hero, and the so-called 'salvation' must still rely on their own efforts in the end.

The only one who can save oneself is oneself, and the one who can support oneself the most is oneself, so you don't need to rely on others and just follow the path you have set.

Natsume hopes that Kiritto will be able to discover the secret of Heathcliff on the seventy-fifth floor, and then he will face off against Akihiko Kayaba, and he will be responsible for completing the final kill at the end of the bald head, which is a simplified diagram of Natsume's plan.

I am the kind of person who liberates all players, and maybe it is suitable for me to make up the knife at the end.

Everyone thinks differently, and those who aspire to be heroes are outstanding; Those who want to be the savior are very powerful; But if you win in secret, won't those who protect others be recognized?

There is value in any effort, and as such, Natsume won't lose easily here.

You won't be easily defeated and you want to win.

Stopping his retreat, in the face of the uninterrupted slashing of the two swords, Natsume's lake sword was attached to a golden light, and the way to crack the high-speed combo was a large-scale energy impact.

Blocking Kirito's double knife slash, Natsume's body moved forward, and his two hands bent. Drove the sword in the lake to slash down diagonally.

The blade of light immediately erupted, and Kirito at close range used the two weapons as shields while evading the impact generated, dodging Natsume's next close-range slash.

Seeing Kirito jump, Natsume chased after him, and before he landed, it was a chance to hit the other party.

In the air, Kirito looked at Natsume.

"You're almost serious."

“…………”

Natsume didn't answer, but instead used the sword of the lake wrapped around the blade of the wind as a means of communication.

It was clear to both sides that Natsume sensed that Kirito's twin blades were a little sluggish. This is something he deliberately slowed down, not because of his own factors.

For Kirito, he fights with double swords, and what he needs is Natsume, who is going all out, as an opponent.

Looking at Kirito who was retreating at a low altitude, Natsume gave up the pursuit.

Release your left hand. Holding the sword in the lake with one hand, the scabbard hanging on the left side also began to show a little starlight.

Like a burning flame. The light of the dancing particles swirled all around. Gathered.

Black-red lines began to creep up on his left face and arm, but instead of hanging on to his left hand, Natsume's left hand was wrapped with more black-and-red patterns than his right arm.

Fang was swallowed by those patterns, and his entire left arm was wrapped in patterns and light.

The full output of the [Ideal Township of Legacy Independence] and the [Excalibur] medium-sized drive are almost the full strength of Natsume.

While the audience was staring at Natsume's change. The ground where he was standing, within three meters in diameter, all shattered together, bounced up with a snap, and flew into the air. Stirred up a lot of dust.

"Give it your all, Kirito."

Behind Kirito, Natsume smiled, ignoring the cracking sound inside his body, and smashed the lake sword in his right hand hard.

The two swords resisted at the same time, and Kirito, who reacted quite quickly, withstood Natsume's attack, rubbed his feet on the ground, and Kirito, who was gliding backwards, finally stopped.

His hands were slightly numb, and Kirito was ready to face Natsume, who was bathed in translucent flames of gold and black-red particles.

Grip the hilt of the sword, adjust your breathing, and all the sounds in the world disappear.

It can be faster, it can be faster, it can be faster!

Kirito suddenly sped up, and the whole person almost disappeared from the audience's field of vision.

The two sides clashed again in the center of the field, Natsume waved his right hand, and the blade with the sound of breaking wind and the oncoming black sword clashed with each other, and the encroachment of power was declared over, and Kirito's white sword immediately slashed over.

Natsume didn't mobilize the right arm of the kenchu ken, but raised his left hand.

It will hurt! That would be the end!

Kirito thought so, but what the [Darkness Chaser] collided with was like steel.

Flesh reinforcement? No, it's not.

SAO can't have such a powerful booster, other than that, is the wind you just saw?

Placing the wind on the skin of the left arm and turning it at high speed to form a wind barrier can indeed do this.

But cut it off!

Kirito exerted force with his right hand, and the conflict between the blade and the wind barrier became more and more intense.

Natsume knew that Kirito wanted to break through directly, but he didn't give the other party any chance, looking for Kiriti's weakness from the field of vision, and his black blade was clashing with the weapon, so-

Natsume let go of the sword in the lake.

The body is pressed down and rotated!

Kirito was slightly surprised to see the enemy in close proximity, but he had already guessed that it was Natsume's move.

Giving up the weapon was a trick, as Natsume held it with his left hand again before the sword was bounced off when he threw it away and bent over to spin it.

Spun around and the high-speed action caused Kirito to pause, and then he immediately took a cross slash with both hands.

Bang!

The raging wind began to rage on the field, and Natsume only felt that his body was starting to feel unwell, and he could fall before he could be hit.

Shut up and hurry.

Looking at Kirito who was bounced into the sky by himself, Natsume bent his legs and jumped.

The two sides came into contact in the air, and the resulting situation was!

Battles in the air.

The flurry of white and black swords, the swing of the sword of light and the fist of wind.

Cut down, blocked; Cross Slash, cracked; Sideways stabs, dodged; Horizontal slash, blocked.

The successive attacks of both sides were neutralized, and the swords and shadows in the air were like countless shining stars, and there was no mistake in the speed and judgment of the two.

Tilting his head to dodge Kirito's sword, the sword that Natsume swung out was also bounced away, and the bodies of the two began to fall.

“―――！！”

“――！！！”

Natsume's left hand was used as a shield, and his right hand was slashed out in large quantities with the strength he accumulated.

Bang!

The impact and slash went out together, and Kirito's twin blades also blocked the attack in an instant.

The reaction force bounced the two apart, and the distance increased instantly.

And so, the light of victory shone brightly!

And so, the fastest swordsman galloped! (To be continued......)
