Crownpis' question made Leafa blush all over, and Leafa even slapped Kirito, who looked dull.
"Hehehehe, it is true that this is not a question that can be answered immediately. If you tell the answer against your true thoughts, then there is no need to discuss it; if the sincere answer cannot satisfy me, there is no need to discuss it. See you at breakfast tomorrow, Tong
If you and Leafa don't go hunting monsters or exploring, remember to take magic classes later." Crounpis smiled and stood up and left.
She suddenly raised her head and glanced at the roof.
Of course it had nothing to do with her focus on the roof.
"This is not good, God is dead. I'm afraid I won't have time to leisurely go down here in the future." She whispered.
"Can I ask you a favor? I don't have instant contact with all the tenants, students, and observers. You can use the [Distant Book Technique] to contact them. Can you come to class as much as possible these days? Who wants to attend the class?
It doesn't matter, just find everyone you can." She said.
"God is dead...what do you mean?" Kirito stood up immediately.
"It's not the three gods of creation, it's the gods who appeared in the sky to announce and establish the foundation of this world on the day you arrived." Clawnpisi whispered.
"Kayaba... no, that 'god' covered in a red cloak? How do you know?"
"It feels similar to 'Apocalypse'. People in this world sometimes feel this way and take action for 'Apocalypse'. Well, 'Apocalypse' has also brought us closer, and both parties can benefit.
Although he is occasionally unreasonable, most people are not dissatisfied."
The first thing that Kirito thought of was that "Apocalypse" should be an instruction from the system to order NPCs to issue tasks to players, but what about "God is dead"? What Kirito could immediately think of was that Kayaba Akihiko might feel that looking at others
Playing the game is very boring, I also got the player ID, and he was killed as a result, but as the mastermind behind the scenes, he shouldn't burn his brain like the player when his HP reaches zero.
Kirito thought he knew this person somewhat. Since his character in SAO was dead, at least he would no longer shamelessly create another character. But it was hard to judge whether this change was good or bad.
"I know, I'll try my best." Asuna suddenly took over the "mission" without permission.
Kirito: "Hey——"
Asuna: "Isn't this a good opportunity? Since anyone can come to the class, Kirito, you must at least invite everyone on your friend list. Call Kizmel too! She has always been disappointed with her magic skills.
Annoyed? This is an opportunity."
Kizmel is the first NPC friend Kirito and his friends met during the "Elf War" mission. He is a dark elf royal knight and is quite powerful.
Kirito's first reaction was: "Impossible! The shopkeeper is the original fallen fairy, and Kizmel-san is the dark fairy. They will definitely fight when they meet."
"Miss Shopkeeper, will your ability to pretend to be a human be useful in front of the Dark Elf Knight? Is it okay if the Dark Elf comes?" Asuna asked.
"Of course there is a problem." Crounpis replied seriously.
"Okay, that's it... wait, what did you say, Miss Shopkeeper?"
"Why do you think I didn't ask you? Why do you think I secretly took you to visit the Great Sage? Just to persuade him to eat more vegetables?"
"Then, what do Kirito and Leafa think? Is this really good?" Asuna looked unwilling.
"Ah, oh." Leafa's reaction was a little slow.
"Hey... I don't know what to do with what will happen." Kirito sighed and said, "Kizmel will also be troubled by this, right? Don't forget to give us the teaching materials for magic class.
It was taken from the dark elf's library. If they could learn magic, they would have learned it long ago."
Crownpis watched them arguing absentmindedly, but now there was an important reality that required her attention.

Time goes back a little, the real world, a house like a country house——
Three helicopters descended from the sky, and a large number of armed men with live ammunition broke in through the door on high alert.
There were no terrorists or vicious gangsters in the house who needed their heavy firepower.
There was only a woman who was ordered to raise her hands above her head and a man wearing nervgear on his head.
Although he may appear to be a victim, the man wearing the nervgear has in a sense kidnapped a number of people that would dwarf any kidnapping and kidnapping cases in the world.
That man is——Kayaba Akihiko.
If Death Game was only released domestically, it would still be considered a domestic case of an island country. But now the incident has spread to the whole world. With the "cooperation" of police forces from various countries, Kayaba Akihiko was still discovered despite the necessary hiding.
.
"Report, a bomb was implanted in the woman's chest!" the team member responsible for checking the woman reported to the captain.
"Are you a coercion? Take it away. Move the body of the nervgear wearer, and the device will give a warning to itself. Connect all relevant equipment to the backup power supply to keep it running while removing it. Hoist him and take him away by helicopter." the captain ordered.
"yes!"

sao world, Aincrad, third floor, Tower of Heavenly Pillars——
In the forested maze, a giant tree spirit, the domain boss, exploded into pieces.
Kurea breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the window for gaining experience points and dropped items pop up in front of him.
"Well done, you have almost mastered the precise operation of the power of purification. The poisonous mist from the monster just now should have been enough to wipe out the team that did not have enough antidote potions or purification crystals." Fuyutsuki Mihoko.
He put away his sword and came over to praise.
"No, it would be great to be able to help. With your ability, that guy can do it alone, right?" Kurea said.
"In reality, it's easy to encounter monsters with comparable abilities and sizes, but don't forget that I'm just a unit here whose survival is determined by the HP gauge."
"Ah, yes, then let's learn how to spread the recovery ability. It's inconvenient to only be able to recover when in contact."
But Fuyutsuki Mihoko didn't answer like she had done in the past. Instead, she took a few steps quickly, faced the exit leading to the area where the domain boss was located, stretched out her hand holding the sheathed sword, and stood in front of Kurea.
Walking over there was a gray-haired man wearing red clothes and full-body plate armor, holding a cross shield and a knight's sword that reached two-thirds of his height.
"Heathcliff, are you leveling here alone?" Kureia was a little surprised. Can a human shield player who is not good at escaping and sneaking go deep into the maze alone?
The lone player lying alone in the blind corner of the maze may be a criminal or murderer based on current experience. Kureia believes that Fuyuzuki Mihoko's vigilance just now is reasonable, but why is she still on guard now?
