Sword Art Online Crossover: They're all close friends, how did I become a player?

"hell……"

Hagoromo Gitsune repeated the word, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

"This is my home for thousands of years, the final resting place for all people and monsters."

"No wonder I couldn't find this malice before; it was hiding in hell."

As Abe no Seimei listened to Nue's words, his hand gripping the fan tightened slightly, and his brows furrowed. He had been searching in the human world all his life, and although he had asked Kuro and Shiro to keep an eye out for any trace of that evil thought in hell, he had always come up empty-handed.

What Abe no Seimei didn't know was that at that time, the world he was in and the world Yu Bai was in had not yet merged, and Nue, whether by chance or by some twist of fate, came to Yu Bai's world of hell.

Therefore, it is quite normal that Abe no Seimei could not find any trace of Nue no matter how hard he searched.

When Yu Bai suddenly heard the word "hell," he immediately focused his attention, carefully listening to every word Nue said, afraid of missing any crucial information, because one of his friends was a civil servant in Hell.

Actually, when he heard Nue say that Hagoromo Gitsune possessing Yamabuki Otome was all on his orders from Hell, Yu Bai secretly dialed Hozuki's number.

Previously, when they went to the zoo together, they exchanged contact information so that they could easily make phone calls to each other, whether in heaven, the mortal world, or hell.

Yu Bai even specially brought people to buy a new mobile phone and infused it with a lot of communication spells.

"Hozuki, listen up! Someone in Hell is causing trouble secretly, and they can even connect to the mortal world!"

While Abe no Seimei wasn't paying attention, Yu Bai quietly tilted his head to one side, peeking out half of his face from behind the fan. He observed the situation while whispering to Hozuki on the other end of the phone.

After explaining, Nue gently pushed Hagoromo Gitsune, who was still embracing him. Although he didn't use much force, Hagoromo Gitsune was completely unable to resist.

Following the force, Hagoromo Gitsune fell towards the lava behind her, her eyes filled with disbelief: "Haru..."

Before she could finish speaking, Hagoromo Gitsune was already tightly gripped by the ghostly hands that suddenly emerged from the lava.

With each roar, the ghostly hands seemed even more sinister and terrifying, as if they were about to drag Yuki-Gitsune into an endless abyss.

"Thank you so much for all these years, great mother. Thanks to you, I was able to embark on my journey once again. You were my sun, bringing me the light of hope and warmth." Nue's voice echoed in the air, yet it sounded so cold and ruthless.

The voice of Hagoromo Gitsune echoed mournfully from within the lava, calling out for her child: "Seimei! Seimei..."

However, the nymph in the sky seemed not to hear this desperate cry, turning away mercilessly, clenching her fist with one hand and muttering to herself, "Only by leaving you behind can I embark on my journey."

So you personally pushed your own sun, your own light of hope, your own mother into hell?

Yu Bai watched the whole situation unfold with a bewildered expression. He looked at Nue, who had turned around in the air, clenched her fist, and muttered to herself, and couldn't help but feel speechless.

You're really crazy! What a filial son! Filial piety breeds power, but this is just a case of discarding a donkey after it has served its purpose.

What? You mean: I've been reborn, reborn to the moment my mother gave birth to me. In this life, I will personally reclaim everything that belongs to me. For immense power, I've switched to the Path of Ruthlessness. At this moment of rebirth, having entered the Path of Ruthlessness, I've decided to kill my mother for the righteous path?

what?

Ah? ?

Ah? ? ?

Yu Bai's mind was racing with random thoughts, and he couldn't tell what strange things he was thinking about.

When he looked at his phone, which was still showing a call in his hand, he couldn't help but shout at it: "Hozuki, Hozuki, come and see!"

"Seimei! I love you!" Even as she was being dragged into hell by the demonic hand, Hagoromo Gitsune was still telling the child who had pushed her into hell that she was expressing her maternal love.

"The demonic path is my shadow; only when the light shines behind me can I truly walk as the Lord of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. Come, demons, follow me!"

Nue lay supine in the void, his back to the churning lava, in an almost arrogant posture. His words were filled with confidence and arrogance, as if the whole world trembled beneath his feet. (I know some of you are curious about what Nue looks like, so I've put the picture in the comments section. Hopefully, I won't swallow it.)

The monsters looked at the Nue in the sky and whispered among themselves, "It's...it's back."

"Nue him..."

"Abe no Seimei has returned!"

"Hahahaha, hehehehe~ The Lord of Legends has been born, hahaha~ Long live Lord Nue!"

Dizang laughed maniacally; nothing could have made him happier than witnessing this scene at this moment.

Ah, no. Brother, please, put on some clothes! And those monsters, are you all idiots? You actually believe in something like this?

As for the so-called true master of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, go ask Shuten-dōji, ask Ōtengu, or if all else fails, ask the real Seimei if he agrees.

Yu Bai couldn't bear to look anymore; he desperately needed to see his friend to cleanse his eyes.

Turning to look at the silver-haired Onmyoji beside him, he saw Seimei standing there quietly, his silver hair like frost, his face cold and handsome.

Great, it looks beautiful and makes me feel at ease. (I've put the image of Seimei from the mobile game here.)

That's right~ He could feel the suppressed anger of Seimei beside him, to the point that Seimei's body was trembling slightly.

"Pfft~"

Just then, Gilgamesh, who had been sitting on the throne watching the show, added fuel to the fire with a sneer, mocking Abe no Seimei.

Bu Yue didn't laugh out loud; he simply turned his back at some point, his shoulders trembling slightly.

Upon hearing Gilgamesh's laughter and seeing Futsuki's reaction, Abe no Seimei could no longer contain himself.

"Lord Seimei, as agreed, I have brought the sword you requested."

Jizo slowly stepped forward and handed the Demon King's small hammer, which he had been holding, to Nue.

“This city has become so filthy.” Nue, wielding the Demon King’s mallet, looked down at the night view of Kyoto and said, “This is not worthy of being our home.”

As he spoke, he was about to swing the sword in his hand towards Kyoto. The Demon King's Little Hammer sword contained extremely powerful energy, and if it were swung down like that, half of Kyoto would probably be destroyed.

Just as Nue was about to strike, a clear, cold voice rang out: "I am unworthy of your... Seimei, Seimei, I am the true Abe no Seimei! Having such an evil thought of yours is the worst luck imaginable! Bind! Bind! Bind! Immovable! Divine decree descend!"

……

Yu Bai: This is so filial! Hozuki, Hozuki, come quick! There's an escapee from Hell causing trouble here! He's even going to kill his mother to prove his faith! How terrifying!

Abe no Seimei: I'll say it again, this is definitely not me!

Gilgamesh & Buyue: They watched silently at first, but later showed no mercy in mocking him.
