"Mom, this is for you."
In Asuna's room upstairs, Asuna took SAO's game equipment from the bedside and handed it to Yuki Kyoko.
"SAO's game equipment?"
Kyoko Yuki took it and looked at it carefully, then she frowned and asked: "Why are you giving me this? Although I can let you play games, I have no intention of letting you stay in that kind of virtual world every day. , you have to recognize the reality, understand?”
"I know."
Asuna said seriously to Kyoko Yuuki: "But I hope mom can bring this device now, because I have something that I need you to enter the VR world before I can explain it clearly to you."
Kyoko Yuki put the gaming device on the table dissatisfied: "I don't want to wear it. I can't tell it clearly in reality. How can I tell it clearly in that kind of virtual world?"
Asuna picked up the device again, pursed her lips, and begged with a serious look on her face: "Mom, didn't you tell me? Give me five minutes, just five minutes is enough. Please wear this."
Looking at Asuna's face, Yuki Kyoko couldn't bear it. She took SAO's game equipment and reminded: "But I have to explain, you only have five minutes."
"Well, thank you, Mom!"
A delighted smile appeared on Asuna Yuki's face, and she helped Kyoko Yuki put on the device. She quickly connected her SAO device to the power supply and then lay on the bed with Kyoko Yuki.
"Connection begins!"
The sound of two people connecting to the SAO game world came from the silent room.
As the data flashed through his mind, Yuki Asuna's body appeared in a wooden cabin.
She turned around and saw a beautiful woman with short light green hair and light green clothes next to the mirror in the cabin.
This is actually another account she created. It is a small account that can be logged in by other people even if it is not bound to herself. Today, it can be used for Kyoko Yuuki to log in.
After hesitating for a moment, Asuna took a deep breath and walked over.
Yuki Kyoko stared at the mirror, shaking her head and arms curiously. From the reflection in the mirror, she saw Asuna walking towards her, and said, "It feels so strange. A strange face that is completely different from me can actually follow the instructions." Activities based on my thoughts.”
Saying that, Yuki Kyoko stood on tiptoes: "And the body is so light."
Yuki Asuna covered her mouth and smiled: "Of course, there is a big gap between the character's weight of only 40 kilograms and reality."
Yuki Kyoko's eyebrows twitched twice, and she said displeasedly: "That's so rude, I'm not that heavy."
Having said this, Yuuki Kyoko leaned her face closer, staring at Asuna with her clear light green eyes, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, your game character looks exactly like you in real life."
"So, after all, this character scanned the body."
Yuki Asuna said with a chuckle.
Yuki Kyoko narrowed her eyes and joked: "However, your real body contours are a bit fuller."
Asuna rolled her eyes: "Mom is not polite, I am not fat in reality, it is obviously the same as reality!"
After saying this, both of them laughed in unison.
This is the first time in so many years that they have teased each other like this.
I didn’t expect such a conversation to happen in the game, it seems quite interesting.
But just after she laughed twice, the expression on Asuna's face suddenly froze, and then her eyes dimmed. She thought about the next thing she would do to disobey Yuki Kyoko.
Seeing this, Yuki Kyoko also stopped smiling and said with a serious expression: "Tell me what you want to say, the time is almost up."
"kindness."
Asuna sighed, opened the door of the cabin, and walked out.
Yuki Kyoko followed with some doubts.
"call-"
Before stepping out of the wooden house, a burst of moist earthy smell and fresh air from the jungle came along with the intoxicating fragrance. Yuki Kyoko suddenly felt refreshed.
I didn’t expect that it was just a VR world, but it could be so real.
Yuki Kyoko walked out of the wooden house with surprise in her heart, and the scene in front of her suddenly made her enlightened.
In the endless virgin jungle, it seemed that there was a continuous drizzle last night. The towering ancient trees exuding vitality sprouted green branches. Occasionally, there were petite flower elves with wings flying over the branches and the crisp and clear scenery in the jungle. The chirping of birds complements each other.
The whole picture is very beautiful and harmonious.
"Strange, how could Aincrad still have such a beautiful scenery if it wasn't destroyed?"
Feeling the sunlight above her head falling along the gaps in the woods next to the wooden house, Yuki Kyoko said suspiciously.
Yuki Asuna's face glowed with a bright light, and her well-proportioned and elegant body was like a beautiful elf in the jungle. She spread her arms, turned around in a circle, and said with a smile: "This is the "Elemental Elf World", It is a hidden area inherited from the elves. Only Mu Fan and I know about it. Since I got the inheritance from the sword elves, I got the right to build a house in the jungle, so I built the house in the jungle. Got here.”
Yuki Kyoko said disapprovingly: "But does this have anything to do with what you told me?"
Asuna pointed to the jungle in front of her with a calm expression: "Mom, do you remember it? Don't you think it's very similar?"
"What?"
Yuuki Kyoko looked at the jungle in front of her and said expressionlessly: "It's just a cedar forest."
Halfway through, Yuki Kyoko suddenly froze.
Seeing this, Asuna laughed: "Remember, Mom, this place is very similar to my grandparents' home."
"My favorite is the house of my grandparents in Miyagi."
As she said that, Asuna clasped her hands on her chest, looked into the distance, and said with nostalgia: "Mom, do you still remember what happened during the Bon Festival in my first year of junior high school? Mom, you went to my hometown in Kyoto, and I was the only one. A man returned to Miyagi without permission."
"Of course I remember."
Yuuki Kyoko said with regret.
Asuna said seriously: "I apologized to my grandparents at that time. I'm sorry that my mother can't come to visit the grave."
"Because the main family formed at that time also had things that needed to be involved."
Kyoko Yuki bit her lip and said.
"I'm not blaming you."
Yuki Asuna walked to Yuki Kyoko and smiled slightly: "Because at that time, my grandpa told me that my mother was his favorite baby daughter. She was admitted to a prestigious university from an inconspicuous small village, and then submitted articles to Impurities , became better and better, and finally became a university professor. They were very happy to see you growing up like this.”
"Finally, grandpa also said that if one day my mother might get tired and want to stop, she would need support. In order for her to have a home to go back to, he would always stay at this home and this mountain. Waiting for your return."
"I have recently understood what my grandparents meant."
Asuna said with a smile: "Sometimes, you don't just run hard forward alone, and you will be happy when you run far. But you work hard with your companions and grow together, and you will get more of what you want. thing."
"Along the way, I have gained friendship with Yinglili, Black Cat, etc., and I have gained love with Mufan. I also want to no longer see the disappointed expressions of my friends. I want to start with my ideals and build a relationship with my friends. Keep working hard for the ACG culture you love, and grow into a person who can be with them, support your partners, and protect your partners.”
A complicated look flashed across Kyoko Yuuki's eyes, and she sighed, "But becoming an idol is difficult..."
"No."
Asuna said softly: "Isn't it difficult for you to see your mother's current achievements differently when you were just starting out? But isn't it still completed? I also want to be like my mother and do the things I like with my friends."
At this moment, a young eagle that had just left its nest on the treetop flapped its wings slightly, and then flew up unsteadily.
But because it had just learned to fly, it only flew less than one meter. After a breeze in the jungle blew by, its body became unstable and fell at the feet of Asuna and Yuki Kyoko.
Yuuki Asuna smiled slightly, squatted down, and held up the young eagle. The young eagle flapped its wings unwillingly again and flew into the sky, but fell again in a gust of wind.
Three times in a row, on the fourth time, the young eagle was finally able to easily cope with the natural wind direction, spreading its wings and soaring in the blue sky.
Looking at the free young eagle, Asuna smiled calmly: "Just like it, even if its wings are broken during the flight while yearning for freedom, if I can be with my friends, I will have no regrets. "
