Zongman, Rebirth of the Heaven-Defying Kirito

The next night, in the main city of the first floor of SAO.

The starting town is now very different from before.

After a day of snowfall, the streets and rooftops in the distance were covered with a soft white blanket.

Even now at night, warm lights can still be seen from the windows of the shops.

The streets are decorated with colorful lights, bells, snowflakes, etc., adding to the festive atmosphere.

Kirito, who was standing in the starting square at this time, stared blankly at the huge thing in front of him - a Christmas tree more than 20 meters high.

This Christmas tree is so big that it even casts a shadow over half of the square.

It is not an easy task to decorate such a tall tree, so much so that it was not completed throughout the day.

Now the NPCs are also proceeding step by step according to the instructions.

People below continued to bring in colorful lights, bells and other decorations, and then transported them up layer by layer via the wooden ladders on the tree trunk.

The most exaggerated thing is that it took more than a dozen wooden ladders to build one tree.

They are placed on slightly thicker tree trunks, extending from the ground to the top, and there is an NPC under each wooden ladder responsible for transportation.

"What a generous move," Kirito muttered.

"What... a big deal?"

A familiar voice came from behind, and then Kirito felt his vision being covered by a pair of slender hands.

"Wow, please don't scare me suddenly."

Kirito said as he was about to take his hands away from his eyes.

But those hands were more tenacious than expected, and they didn't seem to give in at all.

And that voice sounded in my ear again: "No, first you have to guess who I am!"

Is there any need to guess?

I had an appointment here with only one person, and the other person's voice sounded so familiar.

Even without thinking, I knew who was behind me.

But Kirito used his brain!

Kirito only had a slight smile on his face.

Then he pretended to think before saying, "…Could it be 'Yuuki'?"

Ok?

Asuna frowned. Why did her friend's name pop up at this time?

Without waiting for her to think, Kirito continued: "...No reaction, that shouldn't be right...Is that Alice?"

what?

Asuna's hands, which were covering Kirito's, trembled. It was a foreign girl she didn't know? !

I didn't know what to say for a moment.

But Kirito said again: "…That's not right…It must be 'Sky Striker Rei'!"

angry!

Without any hesitation, Asuna hit Kirito on the back of the head with a heavy hammer.

"What is this... From a while ago, girls I don't know are saying this one after another from Kirito..."

I don't know if the pain value was reduced a lot, or if Asuna was showing mercy.

There was no pain at all where I was hit.

Kirito turned around and smiled: "Asuna was the first to do this prank, so we should fight back appropriately."

But when he turned around, he found tears in Asuna's eyes.

As we all know, although SAO is a virtual world, it is definitely not much different from reality in terms of simulation.

And it's more real here in some places.

For example, when a player's emotional fluctuations are detected, real-time feedback will be provided to the player's character.

So you can’t hide your tears in this world.

This also means that Asuna is really angry.

Seeing this, Kirito had only one thought in his mind: It's bad, this is too bad!

But it's exciting.

At this time, Asuna's eyes gradually became sharp: "It seems that Kirito is very popular with girls..."

"No, I was just joking!"

Kirito waved his hands repeatedly to show that he was innocent.

At least so far, he hasn't attacked other girls.

"Then how do you explain what happened just now, Kirito? How can you say that so many girls are unnatural no matter how you think about it?"

During the conversation, the other person's eyes gradually became "kind".

It seems that if I don’t make things clear, today’s date will be ruined.

Kirito quickly pulled out a card from behind his back and showed it to Asuna.

【Sky Striker Rei】

"I just said this... So... That... I hope you don't misunderstand me."

The truth came out, it turns out that the name just mentioned came from a card.

Seeing that the other person's panicked explanation was somewhat cute, Asuna burst into laughter.

After thinking about it, I realized that Kirito does have this kind of eccentric personality, so it is reasonable for him to give such an answer.

And now it’s explained, isn’t it?

Thinking of this, Asuna took out a piece of equipment from her backpack and tempted:

"This was originally a gift I prepared for Kirito today, but I was just wondering if I should just forget about it..."

Seeing this, Kirito took back the card and grabbed the equipment into his arms without saying a word.

"I want!"

Are you kidding? There's no reason why I wouldn't want a gift from Asuna.

Then equip yourself with equipment at a faster speed.

White cape, white collar, white sleeves...

Isn't this the Blood Alliance uniform?

Although there are slight differences, the overall appearance is almost the same.

What to say?

As expected, it's a gift from Asuna.

Sure enough, the other party's eyes lit up after seeing it: "Oh, very good!"

Azhe, the pressure is on Kirito again.

He lifted the hems of his clothes and asked in a weak voice:

"This new outfit doesn't seem to fit me well. Can I change it?"

For Kirito, who was used to wearing black clothes, this dress was too flashy.

It's like asking a handsome boy to wear women's clothes.

It’s not that I can’t accept it, it’s just that I can’t get used to it for a while.

"No way~" Asuna refused with a smile.

Then he continued: "This is a punishment for Kirito. Wear this outfit today and play together~"

Oh, what a torture.

Then Asuna spun around in front of Kirito with her skirt in hand, showing her entire body.

"Look, both of them are wearing white, just like a couple~"

Oh, it seems that it is not unacceptable.

Kirito gave a thumbs up: "I accept this proposal, so let's go see what activities are there without delay."

The two held hands and came under the huge Christmas tree, just because special holiday tasks would appear here.

There was a wooden sign erected here:

[Special monsters will appear on the first floor on the festival day. Killing them will give you a chance to get rare prizes. ]

Kirito thought about it and realized that this was a very routine activity.

If we just need to kill the monsters, the two of us should be able to do it quickly.

So he smiled and said: "Then let's go..."

Just as the two were walking out of the city, a figure stood behind them.

He was not wearing a black robe or a pointed hat, but he was a genuine member of the FFF.

Although they also wanted to deal with these "heretics" as quickly as possible, they were bound by the rule that they could not attack other players in the main city.

After watching the two people leave, he slid his right hand down to open the chat box.

Fast text input:

[Another couple leaves the main city, dressed as a white couple, with a 99% chance of being a heretic! ]

[Received. Please ask the undercover comrades in the city to continue to observe the movements of the 'heretics'. We will deal with them together once we get outside the city.]
