I opened a black shop in Zongman

"Any wish can come true? I am... just a conscious body?"

Under Tatsumi's explanation, Yuuki Asuna finally figured out her current situation.

After experiencing such absurd things like being locked up in the game, she seemed to be able to reluctantly accept the existence of this kind of space where any wish could be fulfilled.

"Well, your body should still be lying in a hospital somewhere."

Tatsumi never thought that there would be customers who could enter the store with just their consciousness.

"Then if I want to clear the game, can I do it?"

As long as the game is cleared, everyone can be liberated, and she can return to the real world.

"Of course you can, but you actually think about clearing the game instead of taking care of yourself. Ms. Yuki is a kind-hearted person."

Appropriate praise and praise can narrow the distance between the two parties.

The closer the distance, the smoother the transaction process will be.

"No... just... I feel that if I escape alone like this, I will... feel uncomfortable."

There are still 8000 people suffering in the game. Thinking of this, Yuki Asuna's heart is very heavy.

"So, how can I make my wish come true?"

Although wishes can be traded, which is a little dreamy, but the girl feels that the people in this place don't seem to be lying.

After all, my current "ghost" state has appeared...

"Well, a small price will do."

Tatsumi looked at the girl's snow-white skin exposed under the armor, then at the girl's soft chestnut hair, and finally stared straight at the other's delicate oval face.

Asuna...

If you want the girl to be "saved", you must start from both reality and the game.

"What, what price?"

The girl felt a little uncomfortable being scrutinized by the boy's gaze.

I always feel that the other party is looking at me, as if examining a commodity.

Just like her capitalist father looked at people...

"In terms of lifespan..."

"life?"

Hope it doesn't take too much life...

The girl prayed nervously in her heart.

"I don't need lifespan for the time being, so you only need to pay me for 'beauty'."

"Beauty, beauty?"

Can this also be traded?

"Well, your face is very beautiful, and it's not much better than my two maids, so this is a relatively reasonable price."

Tatsumi smiled and withdrew his scrutiny from the girl.

"Beauty... Excuse me, take away the beauty, then my face..."

It won't become a faceless man, will it?

Yuuki Asuna was a little scared and imagined a picture of her face without eyes and nose.

"It will become an ugly girl."

It's probably going to be the disfigured kind.

Tatsumi looked at the explanation on the account book.

"Oh……"

ugly girl...

No woman doesn't care about her appearance, but...

Just using the price of becoming an ugly girl in exchange for clearing the game and own life, this deal doesn't seem... unacceptable.

but……

"Don't worry, you can go back to the 'game' and think about it for a while, and when you think about the answer, you can come to me at any time."

There are very few girls who do not hesitate to deal with the store for the first time.

Tatsumi could understand Asuna's current mood.

However, seeing the girl's already tangled expression, Tatsumi felt that the business should be almost done.

Now just wait for the girl to visit again.

"Um...thank you."

Confused, the girl picked up the cloak that had slipped from her body and fell to the ground.

She really needs to calm down for a while, and then think about it.

What happened during this time is too magical...

She also needs time to sort out her current situation for a while.

Chapter 150 Chapter 140 Eight This should be the most powerful three-person team in the game [Third Update]

"Huh? Recovered again?"

Kayaba Akihiko saw that a player named Asuna had appeared in the game.

Same as normal before...

"It's strange... I didn't find out where there is a BUG, ​​but why did this happen..."

The game record is... actually conquered the maze for four days and three nights in a row?

"The human brain is really interesting."

Kayaba Akihiko temporarily blamed the human brain for this strange event.

-

A week ago, Asuna was just an ordinary girl staying in the safe zone of the town.

Fantasizing that there may be rescue from the outside, or that the internal players can conquer the game as soon as possible.

But more than 2000 people died, but even the first floor of the maze was not successfully conquered. This kind of bad news finally awakened the girl.

Instead of hiding in a small room like a mouse and feeling sorry for yourself, it is better to leave the town and fight with all your strength in the maze.

Go ahead, even if you end up burning up like a shooting star and disappearing, that's fine.

At least she had a good burn.

So the girl kept this belief and fought like a restless monster in the maze for three or four days.

Until I passed out and went to that weird shop...

"Beauty in exchange for customs clearance... If the players trapped here know about such a good thing, I am afraid that many people will directly choose to agree."

Putting her hands on the grass, the girl who returned to the game from Flower of Hope will no longer faint, but because her physical strength has not fully recovered, her steps are still very vain.

Maybe there is no need to do such a desperate strategy anymore, do you want to go back to the town?

Asuna looked at the rapier at her waist.

Of the five rapiers I brought, I am using the fourth one now.

Although she doesn't know how to play this game, she feels that she is doing a little brainless strategy, but even so, her level has risen a lot in the past few days.

"Um... are you clearing the maze alone?"

Just as Asuna supported her body with her hands and leaned against a big tree to recover her strength, a slightly thick voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

"..."

After hearing the sudden voice, Asuna immediately turned around with vigor, and quickly drew the rapier at her waist.

The girl who hid her face in the hood didn't answer the man's question immediately, but relied on her fighting instinct to keep a safe distance from the man who appeared suddenly.

"Sorry, I seem to have scared you..."

This is a man in red armor, with silver-white hair, no one can tell his age, but he must be over 30 years old.

"I'm also a solo player, but it's getting late, so I want to find someone to go back to the city with..."

Heathcliff, or Akihiko Kayaba.

Because I noticed Asuna's difference, I used GM authority to come here, pretending to be a passerby.

"I heard that in the wild now, there are people who only pick players who are alone."

Asuna did not trust this man who appeared suddenly.

"You really misunderstood, but, yes, it's a good thing for female players to be more on guard against others, and no matter how strong they are, it's inevitable that they won't overturn."

Kayaba Akihiko didn't force it, on the contrary, he admired the girl in front of him even more.

"I will open the way ahead, and you can choose to follow me or not."

After four consecutive days of high-intensity raids, this girl can still stand up. It would be a pity if she died on the first floor due to exhaustion.

"Thank you."

Seeing that the man who appeared suddenly had already walked on the road back to the city in the distance, the girl withdrew the rapier in her hand.

She silently followed the man more than ten meters behind.

As long as the man in front of her intends to stop or take another path, she will immediately withdraw.

"You should work so hard to clear this game as soon as possible. I heard that there will be a 'first-floor boss attack meeting' in the town square tomorrow afternoon. It will be much better to attend than to clear the maze alone. I heard that the last The BOSS cannot be wiped out by one person alone..."

Kayaba Akihiko kindly reminded.

"Meetings...can't be swiped alone..."

The girl silently wrote down these two points.

Before the afterglow of the "sun" completely disappeared, she and this "kind" man finally returned to the safe town area safe and sound.

"Goodbye then."

Kayaba Akihiko waved his hand, and walked towards the center of the town freely.

"It doesn't look like a bad guy..."

Asuna didn't know that the real boss of this game was the passer-by player who kindly brought her back to the town just now.

However, even if she knew it, it seemed useless to her now...

-

"Beautiful? Why did the senior choose this?"

After Asuna left the shop, Koga Tomoe grabbed Tatsumi's arm curiously.

"Because I haven't received this price yet, I want to try..."

Tatsumi gave a very casual answer.

While this isn't exactly lying, the main reason is certainly not because beauty is a novelty.

"Becoming an ugly girl, the girl will definitely regret it after the transaction, and then have to sell herself to the senior as a maid like Shi Yu-senpai?"

Koga Tomoe feels that this routine is no longer new.

"How can it be so simple..."

Tatsumi didn't think Asuna would be the kind of person who would sell herself for beauty.

The deal, which has yet to be struck, is just the beginning.

"Senior didn't refute the words of taking that girl as a maid this time."
