Continue to the Demon king’s party.Kaede and the others are currently on their way toward the central part of the Island. The reason for this is to avoid falling on water after the Island shrink. Apparently, the body of water surrounding the island where the Battle royal was held was poisonous. If a player happened to soak on it for a long time their life will be reduced to zero at any second.“This is quite unusual there is all almost no people in this part. Of the Island. We indeed encounter some players roaming around and defeated them immediately. But it's still odd I think.”Said, Saya.“You’re right there are still over 300 players around playing. We can’t leave our guard down.”Yuki said and look around her. She used her sensory awareness but can't find other players in her surroundings.“Maybe, they already killed each other. The Island is still big after it shrinks and also Kaede’s massive attack also divided the island in two.”Clover said looking at the destruction Kaede h
Surrounded by countless opponents from above. Kaede fell into Kobato’s trap. With a smug face, Kobato looks down at Kaede. There is no way out. If I wanted to live, I have to fight these many players. I think they are over a hundred players around me. Most of them are long-range players and a half were melee(short-range). I need to become extra cautious about my move or else I’m really going to die here. Kaede thought. And took two swords in her inventory. On her right was the moon-piercing sword and on her left was the royal white sword. She made a sword stance. Putting Royal white sword in front of her for defense and her moon-piercing sword for offense. Thanks to Clover's support boost she can still move faster than she normally does. “Biscuit please help me! Familiar release!” From her inventory Biscuit was released and glares at the enemies standing from above. “A familiar? What is she planning to do?” Because of her fire-type familiar. Kaede gains a magical attribute bonus
“Thank goodness graceful charity sure is useful in times like this. I still have 9 magic counters and lots of Mana potions in my inventory… With this, I might be able to survive all of this.”Kaede said with her optimistic eyes. Her moving speed goes back to normal. She immediately opens her menu and takes a look at the map. Navigating her friends.Seeing four blue dots on that map close to each other. Kaede made a gleaming smile.“I’m glad that they are all fine… It's too bad that I’m the only one who's separated from them… There are not that far away from me.”Kaede messages Yuki to inform her location. Yuki received the message and made a sigh of relief.“Kaede is safe… Yosh! Let's hurry up and reunite with her.”While everyone is on their way to see Kaede.Kaede was targeted unknowingly from a long distance. On the mountainside. A sniper rifle is targeting her head.“Terrifying… Destroying hundreds of players alone. She indeed deserves the title of a demon king… But now The hero
Less than an hour is left before the battle Island event ended. There are only 89 players in total left roaming around.Astonished and left in disbelief. That is the emotional player is feeling right now after seeing how strong Kaede became. After defeating hundreds of players she started to create a mark for herself in the game.Including the fact that she already defeated multiple top players. Her fascinating journey continues to impress many players.“This is insane… I really thought Assault will enter the top 20. To think that the two rabbits defeated them that easily.”“Well, that's why you should not judge the player by their appearance.”“I know that just looking at how angelic Kaede’s face was. Her character is more like a demon. She is using high-level sword skills. She did level up quite fast.”“That’s expected, with that devastating attack she did and after defeating hundreds of players on her own. She will surely level up for sure. It's terrifying how good she was in this
The two stood up facing each other with a fixed fierce gazes. They both grip their weapons in their hands. Ready on what the other party’s move.“This is an honor… This is an honor to fight my idolized player. I’m really happy that I’m given another chance to fight with you Kaede-san.”“I really appreciate you for idolizing me, but I prepared to be a normal person. Let's just be friends equally.”“That can’t do… I want to look at your distance away from me. I wanted to surpass you. That’s my goal. For now, Kaede must treat me as her rival. A rival that will push you into your limit.”After their conversation. Melida widens her wings and flies upon the sky.Her shield transformed and became armor with multiple launchers. From her battle with Kaede before. Melida learned that she might be able to combine two of her skills.For this time her ability guardian angel form and White fortress is been combined. Creating a majestic mechanical angel. Her light glows through the sky.The audience
The event ended and they were returned to their original location. The accelerated time returned to its original flow as well. An announcement was broadcast by the management. The top 20 teams remaining in the event will be invited to participate in the much-awaited summer cup.The next day, Kaede Kishimoto the sword user famous for various nicknames like demon sword demon king, and sword user that bend the game system. Is with her friend Honjou Yuki. Chilling out after school in a cafe.“Don’t be so grumpy about the result of the event. Some player just has great strategy than us.”Kaede said to Yuki whose eating her special sundae with her both eyebrows nearly connecting.“That two girls who killed us are very sneaky. That’s not the way to fight your opponent.”Yuki has a similar tactic as an assassin. I better not say it or else she might explode. Kaede thinks and sips her Ice cream float.“But it's not a bad thing at all right? We are invited to the summer cup. With this, I might
Another day, unlike usual days, today is different. There is no school and Kaede decided not to place her hands on her game console. She knew that the summer cup was going to happen in the next two weeks. At the same time, she didn’t want to pressure herself about the upcoming event.“ What do I look like?”She took various cute outfits from her closet, checking how she looked in the mirror.She has her fashion magazine as her reference to the clothes she’s wearing. She is even alone. She, as a girl, was very interested in clothes.Before she got into games with Yuki, her hobby was sewing her clothes.“This one feels nice… It's summer. I don’t wanna wear too many clothes.”Looking cute with her one-piece dress. A small sliding bag was on her side. She stares at the mirror. She made some wacky faces while at it. She decided to stop after thinking that she had already lost her mind.Being alone is very unhealthy.Playing with her friend is nice, but Kaede was troubled that her friends b
The next day after Kaede, take her day off.Kaede decided to join her teammates in training. This training is for the tournament that’s about to happen at the end of summer.While looking at the hardware Kaede can’t help but feel bad about herself. She took the day off while the others are working hard after all.She doesn’t have any excuse.After making a deep breath and pulling out all her courage. Kaede puts the headgear on her head and turned on the game console.She logs in to the game.She opens her eyes to her room. The wood ceiling and the light brimming from the window Illuminated her eyes. If it's the real world, Kaede will surely pull the curtain, but in the Virtual world. The light didn’t hurt her eyes that much. Instead, the light makes her see the beautiful lake in front of their guild.The lake water sparkles the moment the light collided with it. It was like stars swimming in the water.Kaede rises and looks at the mirror.“I should check everything first… I’m not sur
Night after school hours, I go straight to Tokyo Metropolitan Hospital to visit Yunami. I send my phone number to Yunami online and using my email she can message me if she is awake. Knowing that he is awake for the tonight, I rushed to rent a cab to see her and make an apology. What I did to her and her mother last time must’ve upset both of them. I should explain myself properly. Lying is the only way. I can’t definitely tell them that my heart is broken as the reason why I rushed back home to cry.At this rate, I became a blunt liar.I heaved a deep breath to refresh before meeting Yunami in her room. Thankful, today the elevator wasn’t broken. I’m still hesitant as I grab the door nob. But there is no turning back now.The door make a clicking sound and there I saw Yunami reading a fashion magazine. Beside her was her mother who gave me a nod greeting me.“I’m so sorry for the last time…” I bowed my head immediately.“No worries here. There‘s probably some sort of emergency that h
Ren came here just to ask me for something. All of the time we spend together. Time we smile and laugh together. The time we both share together. All of those times as if they all disappeared into ashes.Alice thought while walking together with Yuki Harusaki back to their office. As for this time, Yuki was anxious about her sister's mood, because usually, Alice will never make such an unpleasant face to anyone. Alice always remains her calm demeanor and acts in her code of conduct all the time.“Big sister… Big brother is just…”“I know… His blinded by love. Love is the most twisted curse there is. Anyone whose enveloped by this curse is destined to do stupid things. Just like those others surrounding him.”Alice then heaved a deep breath and stretched her arms upward. Her piercing blue eyes connect to Yuki. Blue eyes that resemble the blue sky.Yuki don’t know if she will be terrified or glad seeing those eyes of hers. Whenever Alice made this specific wide glance, Yuki knows that s
After three days of crying and reflecting in my bedroom, I immediately went back on my feet and accepted the reality. There is nothing I could do about it after all. Human emotions are not meant to be controlled by someone. I can’t control Ren’s feelings.If Ren and Kanna were in love with one another. There is nothing I could do about it. Remembering my past conversation with Noah. I heard stories that Ren is desperate in his research to save someone special. Ren doesn’t notice girls in love with him because he already has someone in his heart.Putting all of the things I know about Ren. It all started to make sense.Ren landing himself an actress is a surprise. Ren is cool, but he's not someone I can see as actor material. No, I think he is, but not in the pretty boy section. Ren is masculine and cute in a strong way. Kind and nice, and looks younger than his age...“Why am I still thinking about that man?!”*Slam!*I slammed my head on the table. I hate these dark thoughts. Please
Tokyo metropolitan general hospital. The hospital where Clover is currently confined in. Upon entering the hospital I saw people in various circumstances. Most of them are grieving in the waiting area and others in joyous expressions. This is a hospital what should I expect? Most of the despair and hope can usually be found in this place.I don’t want to waste more time and go straight to the information desk and asked about the room of Yunami Kanade. That’s Clover’s real identity. The nurse asked for an identification card and after I handed my student ID.“Miss, do you have some sort of special request? Yumani’s room is not allowed for visits without permission.”“Oh, I do have…” I get my smartphone in my pocket and presented an email about my visit personally sent by Yunami Kanade.After some checking the nurse told me the room and inform The girl that she have a visitor coming.Yunami’s room is on the 10th floor. So high. Now that I think about it this hospital does look more like
Today is the day. Who am I kidding? I’m just excited to go back as Blackraven in the game. My imagination was filled with cool things to do. I would say that I was very very busy that last day. First, I had the training with Clover, hanging out with Yuki in the game and in real life, Consoling Ren, and laying down a proper build for this account.No wonder my grades in school are plummeting down the slope.My build is already complete and I’m going for an assassin build inspired by the Fuyuno and Tenjo, but, of course, with my own twist. I want to look like some kind of mysterious underground player. Something similar to a bad-ass anime character that stole the show every time he appeared on the screen.Everything is done. My visualization of my character and what I could do or my abilities.“Calling Blackraven!”The referee called and I hopped into the small stadium in a random town on the second floor.Each town and city will only have ten chosen players to participate in the sword
Urgg… What is this feeling? I feel like everyone is not being trusted by me lately. It's not that I'm doing something so obvious that would make them untrustful of me. Ren and Clover can just tell me what’s on their mind, but they always want me to go through some stuff to find my answer. Talk about a hassle. The class was lively as ever. Groups of people flock together and talk about their interests. Right now, I am surrounded by a group of normies. It's not that I hate it. Well, I don’t hate talking about girl stuff sometimes. Darma, popular boys, actors, actresses, the most handsome school, and more. I laugh about it because I barely know anything about what they're talking about. “Kaede, there is a rumor that a hot guy in the second year really likes you.” “Gosh, nothing like that is happening in my life,” I replied to my classmate, who I don’t know. I usually called her friend A in my mind though. Not very interesting. The guy I’ll be dating is a competent guy who can do thin
Days after. I’m back in "Fantasy world online" as Kaede. I never thought that I’ll be coming back as Kaede in this game. Not in my wildest dreams. I thought I’ll stay as Aki and have a long long adventure together with Ren. Speaking of Ren, I wonder why he looks so gloomy and desperate. I tried to cheer him up, but I feel like I was being pushed away. It was like Ren is having a problem that he cannot tell me. Urggg… It pissed me off. Why is he always like that? Sharing his problems with me is fine. I’m willing to listen day and night.Could it be that Ren doesn’t fully trust me yet? After all the shits that we went through together.Thinking about things that I could not control will only lead to despair. I should heave a sigh and try to relax. I’ll focus on what I can do for now.Right now, I’m in a second-floor mountain area with Clover. I'm here because of the promise I made to her not long time ago. She wanted me to teach her how to fight like me. I could teach the basics and how
Hello, I’m a former middle school student Kaede Kishimoto. Today I’m here at the popular free apartment with zero security deposit and zero rent.Its build with concrete blocks, something like river rock. It comes with a bed, but the drawback is that it's way thinner than I usually use back home. I’m not in the place to complain about it.It's also equipped with a toilet. I was happy because I can have some privacy within it. As a modern kid, I’m concerned about my hygiene.I can call this place a bargain, the rent is zero after all.It’s worth mentioning that it comes with breakfast and dinner. The food here is quite nice. I don’t know what kind of meat I was eating, but for anyone living a year in this world, you’d find it delicious.Now, let's talk about this apartment's reassuring security. Just look how sturdy these walls and iron bars are. No thief would look at this and want to get in.But ama
“My creation has destroyed… What kind of human are you? I believe your not the hero.”Astonished on what his body became stiff for a brief moment. He then cleared his throat and compose himself again.“... You got me there… Time to get serious.”That’s a useless people catchphrase.A huge purple magic circle appeared on the ground. From the magic circle, an undead witch appeared.“Come forth, my creation… Great mage from hundred years. Witch Marian.”“This is bad Kaede, that undead has a dense magical presence on it.”Alicia warned.The magical presence it has is indeed powerful. I can feel it on my skin. Its magical presence is as terrifying as its rotten face.I still have lots of Mp with me. I better make use of it.“Fire Sword!”My sword sliced his creation once again in half.“This can’t be…
