The Advent of the Infinite King

After more than a month of communication, the two of them know a lot about each other now. Of course, Asuna is not as good as Xie Chen, but she knows that Xie Chen is Chinese, but he has stayed in Japan for a long time and has a reliable personality. , the force value is very high, this is something I knew from the second meeting.

Chapter 23 weekend appointment

Also, he lives in Tokyo now, and although he is still a teenager, he does not go to school.In addition, there are her own inferred, mysterious background and hidden secondary illness. Who made Xie Chen say that her goal is to become the devil?

After deciding on the schedule for the weekend, Asuna went to bed satisfied.But Xie Chen slept all day during the day, and now he is not sleepy at all, so let's practice, young man!The road of cultivation is endless!

Entering the virtual space, Xie Chen began to choose opponents, not only swordsmanship, but also previous skills that needed constant familiarization and practice, as well as the basics of magic lines. .

In SAO, the beta testers have already boarded the No.17 floor, and then the news that Xie Chen singled out the boss slowly spread.It's just that except for the people present who knew a little specific information, the others only vaguely knew that there was such a person, but they were not clear about his appearance and other details.

But his name is still deeply imprinted in the hearts of every player who hears about him. Such a strong person is already something they want to look up to.

Many people want to see what kind of person Xie Chen is, but he is alone in the game and does not take the initiative to contact anyone. The time when he will be online is uncertain, let alone even if he meets him, he may not recognize him. .

Xie Chen doesn't care much about the gossip in these games. He is just waiting for the weekend to go out with girls.

Before that, apart from cultivating in the virtual space, he just wandered around in the game, experimenting with his ideas during the cultivation process, watching the progress bar of unblocking increase little by little, and looking for clues to the inheritance mission by the way. There is no news.

This kind of life can't be said to be interesting, but Xie Chen doesn't find it boring. After all, to gain great strength, one must have perseverance, and be able to endure the boring, boring, and pain on the road to gain strength. Naturally, Xie Chen will not lack this a quality.

Time passed quickly in repeated activities, and it was almost the weekend.Xie Chen came out of the virtual space and made an appointment with Asuna for the next day's meeting time and place.

Then he didn't do other things, but lay on the bed and turned on the music and listened slowly. After working hard for so many days, it's normal to relax.

After looking at the progress bar that didn't go far, Xie Chen turned off the panel casually.I don't know what Oolas is thinking, and he doesn't show up even after completing the task. Now he is living without a goal, if there are not two kinds of swordsmanship and magic patterns waiting for him to learn.

Throwing away the doubts in his heart, Xie Chen turned off the music and slowly closed his eyes. There is a date tomorrow, and the right way is to recharge your batteries.

Waking up in the morning, Xie Chen washed up unhurriedly, struggled for a while while changing clothes, then took the keys and went out the door.He took a taxi directly to the place she and Asuna agreed on.

Standing at the entrance of a park, Xie Chen looked at the time: "Well, it seems a bit early. Wait slowly, it's good to not go out to see the people on the street for a long time."

In Xie Chen's view, this sentence naturally refers to all kinds of girls on the street.Leaning on the fence in a leisurely posture, he silently inspired the magic eye, so it was like using a telescope, no matter how far away it was, it was as clearly visible as in front of his eyes, but he did not use perspective, after all, people on the street came and went There are everyone there, he is not interested in seeing the uncle.

Because it is not far from the shopping street, the flow of people is still quite large.Xie Chen actually saw a lot of nice girls.In particular, there was a loli, wearing a princess dress, whose cute appearance immediately hit Xie Chen's heart.His gaze moved with her, and he moved back only when the turn disappeared.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped somewhere, as if he saw someone.

"That's Kiritani Suguha? The one next to him should be Kirito, right?" Xie Chen rubbed his chin, and there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. He didn't expect to see the male protagonist in reality.But as far as I know her home is quite far from here, what are you doing here, is it for fun? "

On the other side of the road, Kiritani Suguha was walking ahead, urging some Kirito who followed from time to time, holding a card in his hand, which seemed to have some address written on it.

"Brother, hurry up. Go early to get the front seat, hurry up." Kiritani Suguha slightly pouted his mouth, and said anxiously.

"Okay, hurry up. Suguha, do you think that writer has something to attract you? He dragged me here early in the morning." Kirito was a little helpless, yawned, and only quit the game in the middle of the night last night. Before I woke up, I was called up by my sister early in the morning, and accompanied her to some author's signing event.

"Brother! Why don't you want to be with your sister? Shouldn't you protect me? What if I run into a sex man?" Kiritani Suguha glared at him and said.

"Okay, I was wrong. Hurry up, so I can go back earlier. I'm just halfway through the task, and I don't know if I can finish it today. If there is no task reward, the gap with that person will widen Right?" Kirito said helplessly, and finally he was talking about it.

Although the voice behind was small, it was still heard clearly by Kiritani Suguha. "Huh, let's talk about me, aren't you also addicted to games?" Then he seemed to see something, pointed in one direction and said, "Ah, it's there, brother, let's go there quickly." After finishing speaking, he pulled Tong In which direction did the person walk.Kirito was helpless, did not speak, quickened his pace and left with the excited Kiritani Suguha.

Xie Chen saw the movements and expressions of the two of them clearly, but because the distance is relatively far and the environment here is relatively chaotic, so he didn't hear what you were saying.Just thinking in his heart, although he was losing his temper, Suguha looked more agile.

Xie Chen, with all kinds of thoughts flying around in his heart, heard footsteps on the other side at this time, as if he was running this way. It is not surprising that all kinds of footsteps are chaotic on the street of Android, but he turned his head unconsciously to look at it. In the past, as expected, it was Asuna.

Chapter 24 The Princess and the Knight

She was wearing a white T-shirt today, with one shoulder slightly exposed, and a bright yellow short skirt underneath, which made her skin fairer. She was carrying a brown bag in her hand.Seeing that she was walking over, Xie Chen was a little surprised, thinking that Asuna would send the car here directly.

Asuna trotted to Xie Chen, tilted her head and smiled slightly: "Mr. Xie Chen, have you been waiting for a long time?"

Xie Chen smiled and shook his head: "No, I came early. Besides, shouldn't I be waiting for you?"

Asuna turned her head to the side: "As expected of Mr. Xie Chen, you come here with sweet words. Okay, come with me. I'll decide today's itinerary. Is it okay?" After speaking, she blinked.

"Ah, no problem. I'll listen to you, Your Royal Highness." Xie Chen's thin lips curled up, and he smiled softly.

"Then, my Lord Knight." Asuna pursed her lips and smiled, "Come with me now. Just pass through this square first." After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked forward, and then thanked Chen consciously followed and walked beside her.

Not long after walking out, Xie Chen suddenly grabbed Asuna's hand and moved to the side, saying "Be careful!" Asuna didn't know what was going on, and she didn't realize until she fell on Xie Chen , just wanted to break free but was held down by Xie Chen and took a few steps to the side.

Only then did Xie Chen let go of Asuna's hand, and explained: "The skateboarder seemed to have lost control just now, and rushed towards this side all of a sudden, I did it out of desperation, Yasi Na, you don't mind, do you?"

In fact, even if he didn't explain Asuna, he already knew what was going on. Just now, when he stepped aside, he heard the sound of pulleys passing quickly from behind, and then he caught sight of a teenager on the skateboard who was not very good. steady figure.

Now the boy who barely stopped after almost bumping into many people is in the process of apologizing to the people around him.

She slowly stood firm, with a blush on her face, just now she smelled the smell of Xie Chen, it was a kind of fresh breath, leaning against her arms, there was a very reliable feeling, as if she was also in good shape, muscular Quite strong "Asuna?" Xie Chen's questioning voice rang in her ears, and she came back to her senses at once, raised her head and said, "Huh? Ah, it's okay, it should be me expressing my gratitude." Yes." The blush on her face became more obvious, really, what was she thinking just now, she was so ashamed.

Asuna's application changes, Xie Chen naturally saw it, and she could almost guess what she was thinking.But he pretended not to notice it, and just smiled silently in his heart, so as not to make her more shy.

Stretching out a hand to wrap a strand of hair on Asuna's face behind her ears, Xie Chen looked into her eyes and said slowly: "It's my duty to protect the princess, and I'm just fulfilling my duty." The tenderness in his eyes was full of overflowing, seems to drown people in it.

Asuna didn't expect that it was just a joke that Xie Chen would say so seriously, she turned her face to the side and started to change the subject: "Well, let's go quickly, it's over there." Then without looking at Xie Chen, she stepped forward , Xie Chen laughed, followed her footsteps, then glanced at the hands that were still clasped together and nodded in satisfaction.

They didn't say anything along the way, except that Xie Chen asked a question: "Asuna, we've known each other for a long time, why are you still so polite when you call me now?"

"Huh? You're welcome? Is that so?" Asuna was a little puzzled, "Then what should I be called?" She was educated since she was a child and told herself that her name should be no problem.

"Look, I only call you by your first name, but you keep calling me by my full name, isn't it unfair? Then you can just call me by my first name." Xie Chen began to coax.

"Name? Chen Jun?" Asuna tilted her head and shouted.

"Just call the name without the suffix." Xie Chen continued to smile, and the words with the suffix sounded like the name of a certain star to him.

"Eh? Is this okay? Would it be too disrespectful?" Asuna frowned slightly. In fact, she still had a word in her heart. Could it be too intimate?

Xie Chen shook his head: "How can you disrespect? This means that you and I have a good relationship. We all shouted that at my house." Without changing his face, he began to fool around. Who would shout that before him? Who dares to call him that if he plays well, even girls who have a crush on him are just calling him by his name.

Asuna hesitated for a while, then nodded slowly, and called softly: "Chen?"

When Xie Chen heard it, he nodded immediately, "Yes, that's it." A soft word fell into his heart like a feather, and his heart was itchy when he scratched it.

Now that I yelled out for the first time, the pressure behind me was much less.Ignoring whether this name is too intimate, Asuna explained to herself that this is the custom of Chen's hometown, and since they are friends now, it is also necessary to adapt to the habits of friends.

Xie Chen was very satisfied at this time, seeing Asuna's long orange hair reflecting the sun, the warm color almost spread into his heart, smiled lightly, and slightly tightened Asuna's hand.

At this moment, Asuna felt that Xie Chen was holding her hand, and it seemed that she had already held it all the way.She opened her mouth slightly, but closed it without knowing what to say.

The mouth is pursed lightly, the thoughts in the heart are mixed.Wouldn't it be too deliberate to move your hands away now?Why didn't you feel it just now?Chen's hand was so comfortable to hold, did he know it long ago but never let go?

Asuna's mind was in a mess, and her heart beat unconsciously faster, she seemed to be looking at the road, but she didn't know where her eyes were. If Xie Chen hadn't been paying attention all the way, she might have bumped her head against a pillar up.

But he didn't say anything, and quietly felt the soft and smooth touch of the book. Asuna's hands were not big, with slender fingers, very beautiful.It is completely impossible to imagine how the hand that should be used for playing the piano or drawing is holding a long sword to fight.

Chapter 25 The boy and the bear

The two walked forward quietly, crossed the road and walked straight forward. After a while, they came to an intersection and turned right.What is presented in front of you is a large shopping mall with a surging flow of people, as if it is doing something today.

"Ah, that's right. Today is that teacher's book signing." Asuna put her finger on her mouth, looked at the bustling crowd and said, then she seemed to see something and smiled slightly, "It really is."

Xie Chen looked over and saw an electronic screen, which was introducing the activities of the signing event.

"Asuna." Xie Chen called out.

"Well, here. What's the matter?" Asuna turned to look at Xie Chen.

"Is this teacher famous? I see a lot of people." Looking around, almost all of them are girls. Who are they writers?Suguha seemed to be heading in this direction before.

"Yeah, yes. This teacher's works are all about girls, and they are very popular with girls." Asuna explained with a smile, it seems that they also like the works of this author.

"Well, do you like Asuna? Shall we also queue up?" Xie Chen suggested.

Unexpectedly, Asuna shook her head and said, "No need, I already have it at home. It was given to me when I met the teacher some time ago."

Xie Chen raised his eyebrows, and then felt relieved when he thought of Asuna's identity. As a young lady, it is easy to get a signed work, and there is no need to wait in line.

"It's over there, come with me." Asuna pulled Xie Chen into the elevator, "It's my friend's birthday in two days, but I don't know what to give, so I'll ask Chen to help me choose. "

"Obey, Your Highness the Princess." Xie Chen made a gesture of acceptance.

Asuna and Xie Chen came to the second floor of the shopping mall. Looking from the stairs, the signing party below was lively, but it was still orderly.The person sitting behind the desk turned out to be an uncle?The corner of Xie Chen's mouth twitched slightly. Sure enough, it is the uncle who understands the girl's heart best?

This is a counter specializing in crystal jewelry, no matter which one it is, it is very valuable, but this is obviously not what the two of them will care about.

"Asuna, this bracelet suits you very well." Xie Chen looked at the sparkling crystal bracelet on her wrist. The same on tender white petals.

But Asuna shook her head, "This is picking out a gift for someone else, so what's the point of buying it for yourself? Well, let's go first and see if there is something suitable, it seems that she likes more cute things, What do you think of the doll?" While talking, he took off the bracelet and handed it to the shopping guide.

"Girls should like dolls, they are fluffy." Xie Chen wiped his honeyed chin and said after thinking about it seriously.The first thing to do with girls is to be serious, this is the principle.

"Over there, let's go and have a look." Xie Chen nodded, looked back at the bracelet that had been put back on the counter before leaving, and smiled slightly.

In the end, Xie Chen walked in the shopping mall with a huge pure white teddy bear in his arms. Yasna watched him snicker from time to time, but Xie Chen was helpless.

After all, a tall and straight boy who looks handsome and somewhat indifferent is hugging a big bear who is about his height and has a cute pink bow.This contrast made everyone who saw him couldn't help paying attention to him.

Walking to a resting place, Xie Chen called to Asuna and said, "Asuna, you wait here for a while, I'm going to the bathroom and I'll be right back."

Asuna nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you here."

Xie Chen put the bear beside Asuna, its huge body stretched across two or three seats.Then he left quickly, but the direction he went seemed to be not in the same direction as the bathroom?

Asuna sat on the spot and waited, poking her finger at the big bear's soft body, enjoying herself.Not long after, Xie Chen came back, smiled at her, picked up the bear casually, and said, "Let's go."

That means Xie Chen is here, after all, that bear is taller than Suna, if you pick it up, it will not only mop the floor, but also cover her whole body.

After getting off the elevator carefully, and then out of the shopping mall, Xie Chen looked at the sky, it was only noon.Rubbing the white hair on his face, he turned his head and said to Asuna with some difficulty: "Asuna, where are you going now, you can't keep it with you." He pursed his lips helplessly, although he was always the focus of attention , but now this is the first time that the focus is all on bears or something.

"Ala, can't you hold it? I think you match it very well. Wait a minute," Asuna suddenly remembered whether it was you, hurriedly took out her phone from her bag, and took a picture of Xie Chen and Xiong After a lap, he put it away with a satisfied smile.

"Okay, just wait here. I've already sent someone to pick it up. Really, with a troubled expression on his face, are you just so unwilling to help me? He even said he was a knight, so he started complaining. .” His mouth was complaining, but his eyes were full of smiles.

Xie Chen wanted to lower his head, but found that there was a bear blocking him and he couldn't move, so he could only glance at Asuna with his eyes.

Asuna blinked one eye at him and made a face.

After standing on the side of the road for a while, a black limousine drove over and slowly stopped in front of them.
