Yuki took the large fries from Shadow directly, took a big bite, and yum, it was full of meat and cream, with a chewy texture and an explosion of calories.
Asuna glanced at the food in her hand; her family usually wouldn't let her eat such high-calorie foods.
Yuuki nudged Asuna's waist and whispered, "You won't get fat from eating in this world, since it's just a game."
Asuna froze for a moment, then her eyes suddenly widened!
Yes, this is a game. The dungeons and battles are so realistic that I almost forgot.
Does that mean you can eat all the food you want?!
She took a bite of the fried potato ball, and her face immediately flushed with happiness.
"Mmm—I'm so happy, it's so good to be alive!!"
"Hehe, not bad, right?"
Return to the Mansion of Stardust.
Yuuki threaded the finger bone of the Shadow Warrior she had kept in her pocket into a pendant with silver thread and handed it to Asuna:
"These are today's spoils, to commemorate Asuna joining the Astrea family!"
"Hehe, I used contribution points to help you exchange them for real-world items from the guild leader. Asuna, pay attention to your surroundings after you wake up."
Asuna found it a little strange, but didn't pay it any mind. After saying goodbye to Yuuki, she slowly recited:
The world has rejected me...
With a flash of starlight, Asuna's spirit disintegrated and vanished.
……
Yuki House.
Asuna woke up from her dream and turned off the alarm clock just before it went off.
She yawned...
"Well, putting everything else aside, the food is delicious and my sleep quality is great. I should go and brag about it to Deep Orange."
Asuna jumped off the bed with delight, and with a clatter, a crescent-shaped finger bone pendant fell to the ground.
"This is..." Asuna was horrified. She realized that it was the souvenir that Yuuki had said she would give her.
but……
"My room was clearly locked, how did she manage to get in so quickly?!"
She immediately stomped downstairs in her slippers, and there her brother was drinking coffee at the table.
"Brother, did anyone come into my room this morning?"
"No," Yuki Koichiro said casually, putting down his cup.
"Then why... wait? Where's Mom?" Asuna noticed something amiss. Normally, her mother would be waiting at the dining table at this time, never missing a moment.
Koichiro looked at Asuna with a puzzled expression: "Mother usually has meetings that go on until very late before the weekend, so she won't be back so soon."
"weekend?"
Asuna turned to look at the news on TV.
[July 28, 2022: Another home invasion and murder has occurred in Beika Town. An armed robbery has resulted in three deaths. Residents of Beika Town are advised to keep their doors and windows tightly closed and not to open the door to strangers.]
"July 28th, wasn't yesterday only April?"
Asuna covered her face, feeling as if everything had become unreal.
"Sorry, brother, I might not be fully awake yet. I'll go back and take another nap..."
Koichiro reminded her, "You have to come down before Mom comes back. Even if it's the weekend, don't break your mother's rules."
"I, I know..."
Asuna felt a little breathless and went back to her room to lie on the bed...
My phone beeped, and a notification popped up saying I'd joined a group.
Asuna curiously opened the group chat.
The first message is:
"Welcome everyone, witness the real world!"
……
After understanding the so-called essence of the game, Asuna took a deep breath, hearing her brother's urging and her mother's stern reprimand.
She took out the crescent moon pendant and held it up to her eyes. She thought back to her home, which felt like a cage binding her:
"A real other world?"
She placed the pendant against her chest:
"Freed from all kinds of cages...?"
Chapter 277 Asuna: The Rebellious Phase?
"Break free from all kinds of cages..."
Asuna subconsciously murmured her incantation, or perhaps it was just subconscious, but a surge of spiritual power was invoked, and magic transformed into emerald starlight that bathed the girl.
"Huh? E ...
Asuna sat up abruptly in bed, rubbing her body in disbelief.
"Magic?"
The additional attribute granted by this treatment seemed to be a boost to strength; with the exertion, Asuna let out a soft gasp…
"ah."
Outside the door, the mother, who had raised her hand to knock, suddenly stopped, unsure whether she should speak. Perhaps her daughter was also of age to grow up, but after hearing the continued sounds of "ouch," "hiss," and "pain" coming from inside, she went downstairs with a dark expression.
Seven-thirty.
Asuna rubbed her aching arms as she went downstairs, and her mother slammed the cup down heavily.
The crisp clinking of glass startled Asuna.
"Mother……"
"Don't call me Mom." Kyoko Yuuki's eyes flashed with malice. "I should have told you that you need to be downstairs before 7:10 in the morning."
"And..." Kyoko Yuuki didn't know whether she should speak up; her daughter probably didn't want anyone to find out what she was doing.
My mom wasn't home this morning...
"I'm sorry, Mom. I'm not feeling well today." Asuna's eyes dimmed as she habitually apologized.
"Hmph, whatever, sit down and eat."
A family that upholds elite education would naturally not leave Asuna to eat alone.
Koichiro Yuuki closed one eye: "You've made everyone wait for 20 minutes, so this time your older brother won't be on your side."
"Hmph~" Asuna turned her head away. He was now a noble healer, and her mere brother was nothing to fear!
After breakfast, my brother and father went to the company. My mother is a senior teacher and usually works late into the night on weekends, so she's fine now.
She sat on the living room sofa, her stern brows furrowed, and she reached out to rub her neck.
"hiss……"
Did you get a stiff neck?
In her pain, she felt a pair of soft little hands fall on her shoulders.
"Mom, let me rub it for you."
Kyoko Yuuki instinctively wanted to retort, "You should be getting ready for your piano lesson right now..."
But before she could finish speaking, a gentle force began to spread as Asuna kneaded her skin.
The thought of sending his daughter to study vanished instantly: "Hmph, a few minutes won't matter."
Asuna squinted and quietly activated the magic, completely restoring her to full health after a night of fatigue and exhaustion.
Under Asuna's massage, Kyoko Yuuki's eyelids drooped, and she fell asleep on the sofa.
Asuna stuck out her tongue: "Oh, piano lessons, whoever wants to go can go."
She shuffled back to her room in her pink slippers, and immediately grabbed her helmet and put it on.
"Link start!"
As the incantation was chanted, starlight appeared before her eyes, and she once again entered that fantastical world filled with Western fantasy.
Orario, 8 PM.
The streets were brightly lit, and adventurers strolled in and out of taverns in small groups, arm in arm, or used their earnings to visit the pleasure quarters, find familiar prostitutes to vent their desires, or seek solace in their hearts.
Asuna left the Stardust Mansion alone and strolled through the streets filled with otherworldly atmosphere.
She was like a fledgling bird that had escaped its cage, interested in everything.
