"This ga helt is super expensive." Hana expressed her confusion.
"No matter. re supernatural won't affect my gaming." Tenya said nonchalantly.
"No matter. re supernatural are no match for the Evil King's True Eye." Rikka was full of confidence.
"Ehh... I have a feeling it's going to be very dangerous."
gumi thought, 'You said the sa thing when you were in Soul Society.'
That battle was earth-shattering, almost taking on the entire Gotei 13m
"The Nightmare Queen fears no ghosts or goblins!" Ruri chid in, following suit.
"Uh..."
Everyone looked at her with strange gazes.
"Wh-what's wrong? Is there sothing wrong with what I said?"
Ruri shrank her neck and timidly looked at Tenya.
"Black Cat, this is a warning. If you're not prepared, don't log into SAO." Rikka was serious for once, sincerely advising her.
"It might have the opposite effect..." gumi sighed.
When a chuunibyou person says too many chuunibyou things, being occasionally serious makes it hard for people to believe them.
"I am already prepared to go to another world!"
"The Nightmare Queen will definitely not be absent from logging into SAO!"
At the scene, Ruri was the only one who knew nothing about the supernatural.
At this mont, she just felt that Rikka and the others were playing chuunibyou jokes.
Isn't it just logging in to play a ga?
Why speak so seriously?
What kind of danger could there be?
It's not like if you die in the ga, your real self will also die, right?
...
SAO Ga Company Headquarters.
"Kayaba-san, the task you gave has been completed."
"So, according to our agreent..."
Tomoya rubbed his hands excitedly.
The departure of core mbers, the dissolution of the ga team, and the broken loan capital chain—a series of real-life blows had pushed Tomoya into desperation.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Kayaba Akihiko, the owner of SAO Company, approached him.
He hoped to use Tomoya's traffic as a big online influencer to promote this latest ga to the vast number of otaku friends.
In return, Tomoya would receive a generous reward.
Faced with such tempting conditions, Tomoya accepted without hesitation.
At the ani convention, he successfully made the SAO ga a huge seller by utilizing his powerful otaku evangelism skills.
Of course, the main reason was the imnse appeal of a fully imrsive ga.
Tomoya rely fanned the flas.
"Aki Tomoya, the money has been transferred to your bank card."
Akihiko's efficiency in transferring money was incredibly swift, giving off a feelimg that he was not interested in money at all.
What's intriguing is, when a capitalist isn't interested in money, what else could he be interested in?
"Thank you!"
"But money is secondary."
"Mainly, I'm also quite interested in SAO, could you give a super powerful ga account?"
A fervent blush appeared on Tomoya's face.
For him, Tenya was the nightmare of his life. Since he couldn't defeat him in reality, he hoped to defeat him in the ga.
"Oh?"
"Do you have such a thought?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Akihiko's eyes.
"Alright."
"As a reward, I can give you a god-tier account."
"The ID is Kirito."
"I hope you have a pleasant life in SAO."
His expressionless face outlined a hint of a aningful smile.
"Really?"
"God-tier account: Kirito!"
"With this, I can defeat that guy, right?"
Tomoya's eyes glead with excitent and fanaticism.
...
"There are about three hours until SAO opens."
"That should be enough ti to catch up on a few lessons."
Tenya skillfully knocked on Mafuyu's door.
"Good evening, Kirisu-sensei, I'm here to for the foreign language class."
"You should go to Tofu-sensei for that." Mafuyu maintained a stern face.
"Alright, don't be angry. I've been a bit busy lately and neglected my Mafuyu."
Tenya curved his lips and reached out to pinch her delicate cheek.
"Nonsense. You talk as if I really want you to co over."
Mafuyu raised an eyebrow, slapped away his mischievous hand, and turned her head away, feigning composure.
"Yes, yes~"
"Ti waits for no one, let's have a warm-up first."
Tenya carried her into the bedroom.
After a few lessons...
"Good night, Mafuyu."
Tenya kissed her sweat-drenched forehead.
He got up to take a comfortable hot bath, feeling refreshed, and then left.
Returning to his own room, Tenya unboxed the ga helt. He quickly skimd through the instruction manual.
Since the device was a first-generation version, it currently only had one built-in ga, "Sword Art Online," abbreviated as SAO.
"The original Sword Art Online..."
"But now that it's connected to the supernatural, I suppose the plot and setting will be very different, right?"
Tenya recalled the ani he had watched in his previous life, and he had a basic estimate in his mind.
After putting on the ga helt, Tenya lay down on the bed.
"Let think, the voice command in the manual..."
"Link Start!"
Connecting!
His vision underwent a bizarre transformation.
An electronic voice sounded in his ear.
"Welco to Sword Art Online!"
"First, please complete account registration."
Following the instructions on the ga interface, Tenya entered his personal information.
ID: Tenya
Password: XXXXXX
"Next, generate your character..."
"Gender, hairstyle, skin color, physique, etc..."
"Please freely choose your preferred style and adjust the details."
The variety of modeling options was quite rich, and there was also a custom option at the end, which could generate a character based on one's own facial features.
The manual stated that the ga helt had built-in 3D facial recognition, capable of reading the player's facial features and contours.
Tenya decisively chose custom.
"Generating your character..."
After about ten seconds, a 3D character model based on Tenya appeared on the screen.
Tenya simply glanced at it. It was about half as handso as he was, so he could only say it was passable.
"You will now be transported to the ga's starting location, the Starting Town."
"Please enjoy your adventure in the floating castle, Aincrad!"
The ga interface disappeared, replaced by a massive floating castle suspended amidst the white clouds in his field of vision.
