~CHAPTER 3~
“Oh yes, we haven’t forgotten about SAO, have we?” Kuroyukihime asked.
“....” There was an awkward silence in the room.
“Uh.. I remember Misaka-senpai saying that we have floor boss battles once every week for the first years. We have to reach Floor 50 in order to rise up to second years, and to achieve that we have to form a party with other first years....” Kii said.
“And for the second years, we’ll have to reach Floor 100.... which is harder than the first years...” Yuka said. “The third years have to finish the whole Shingeki no Kyojin storyline.”
“Wow... I never knew that...” Oreki said.
“But what if you fail to meet these requirements?” Satoshi asked.
“You’ll continue staying on your year until you meet the requirements and rise up to the next year.”
“Eh....”
“Anyway, tomorrow’s the first years’ first floor battle, I’ve already trained and leveled up lots these 2 days,” Kii said. “How about you, Kazuto-kun and Satoshi-kun?”
“I have,” Oreki said.
Satoshi had cold sweats. He didn’t train himself at all, he just completed his teacher’s homeworks. “Uh... uh...”
“By the looks of it, I know you didn’t, Satoshi-kun,” Kii was getting angry. “How can you be a gamer when you’re so lazy to level up?!! Fuyukai desu!”
“I’m relying on the front lines!”
“Misaka-senpai said that you had to participate in at least 5 of the floor boss battles!”
“What?! You didn’t say that!”
“We’re gonna train you real hard! You’re not gonna sleep for 24 hours!! You’re gonna do grinding ferociously!!”
“F-fine...”
“Uh... senpai?” Oreki asked Kuroyukihime. “Could you please help with the composition and the lyrics of Kyoukai no Kanata? We’re gonna be busy with, you know, Satoshi.”
“Don’t worry, leave it to us!” Kuroyukihime said with a wink. “Our floor boss battle is the day after tomorrow.”
“Satoshi-kun, we’re going to Kazuto-kun’s house to have dinner first!” Kii decided.
“WHAT?!! My house again?!! Fukou da!” Oreki said.
“Can’t be helped, you’re good at cooking,” Kii said. “Oh yes, Hime-senpai, when will the club rooms be available for full diving?”
“Next week, so you guys can’t train here. But you can do it outside of the school,” Kuroyukihime explained.
“S-so I guess we can practice Kyoukai no Kanata now...” Yuka said.
Suddenly, the school bell rang and it was end of school.
“Wow... we wasted the whole time chatting,” Kii said.
“Me and Yuka-chan will do the composition of Kyoukai no Kanata with all the instruments, so don’t worry about us! It’s a piece of cake,” Kuroyukihime said with a wink.
“Well then... sorry for troubling you...” Satoshi said.
Kii, Oreki and Satoshi were walking home together and they reached Oreki’s house. Satoshi commented, “Wow, the apartment beside Oreki-kun feels like it’s blocking the sunlight from his house.”
Spot on! Oreki thought. “Uh, well, that house actually is--” He felt a sharp pain in his feet. “Owww!”
“That’s just his selfish neighbour,” Kii lied through her teeth.
Kii-chan! Why’d you do that for?! Oreki thought. Fukou da!
They entered Oreki’s house and had a heartful dinner.
Kii, Oreki and Satoshi partied up, and went full dive into SAO. “Link Start - SAO!”
Kii was Level 18, Oreki was the same level as her, but Satoshi was...
“What?! You’re Level 5 only?! Fuyukai desu! Looks like we need some serious grinding here!” Kii complained.
“.......” Satoshi felt guilty.
“Satoshi, you’re gonna die under the hands of Kii-chan. Brace yourself,” Oreki said, resting his right arm on Satoshi’s left shoulder.
“Alright, since you’re Level 5, this district has Level 5 - 10 monsters, you’re gonna grind there,” Kii said, pointing to the hologram map. “And Kazuto-kun will guard you if you purposely log out just to escape this hell.”
So Kii and Oreki waited for Satoshi to reach Level 10, then they proceeded to the district with Level 10 - 18 monsters. But suddenly, Kii and Satoshi fell asleep under a tree when it was 4 AM in real life time.
When they woke up, it was 6.30 AM.
“Wait, where’s Satoshi-kun?!” Kii asked, surprised.
“Maybe he logged out! We accidentally fell asleep, you know. I’m going to check the map to see if he’s there,” Oreki said. “Huh? He’s in the district there there’s Level 18 - 25 monsters...”
Kii and Oreki finally found Satoshi, still grinding.
Kii checked Satoshi’s profile. “W-wait.. he’s... Level 21!!”
“He grinded way too much!” Oreki facepalmed.
“Yo, Kii and Oreki-kun, it’s morning now..” Satoshi greeted.
“Satoshi-kun.. you..” Kii was speechless.
“I don’t know what so say,” Oreki said.
“We’d better log out now, if not we’re gonna be late for school,” Kii said.
The trio logged out and went to school. It was finally the day for their first floor boss battle.
~END OF CHAPTER 3~
Note: As promised, I’ve put in SAO~ :3 And the reason why Oreki was able to full dive despite saying he can't in the first chapter will be revealed in the next chapter. :)
