Why did Hikigaya save the anime girls in Sword Story?

"For Asuna and Liz, let's fight!"

A few minutes later, when Hachiman's magic was lifted, the four of them rushed into the battlefield like arrows.

ALO: Chapter 114: Team Yawata's Victory

"Anyway, that's it. I'm here to help Hachiman-kun!"

"Thank you, Mr. Mebius."

"Also, I've brought three of Hachiman-kun's former companions with me!"

"Hey?"

Upon hearing this, Hachiman noticed that three players were fighting against the Fire Elves. The three of them displayed amazing strength, and the morale of the opposing army was gradually collapsing.

"That is... could it be that..."

"It seems to be the reinforcements my sister mentioned."

"Is that so... Haha, they are finally here," Hachiman said with relief.

"Now that the enemy is completely defeated, we should reorganize our forces."

"But before I start reorganizing, I want to ask, what have I become?"

Hearing this question, everyone looked away and answered at once:

"Santa Claus"

“It’s Santa Claus!”

"Where's Santa Claus?"

"How long are you going to keep up the Christmas spirit, brother? I'm so embarrassed, Komachi..."

"Santa Claus? Santa Claus... Could it be that... I was really watching the fight between Kirito and that guy with great tension..."

“Now that we understand, let’s start organizing it.”

"Oh, sorry, Komachi, could you please call Leafa? Miss Sakuya and the others are probably out of MP. Let them remain on guard and rest."

"Got it! Komachi will be there right away!"

"Alright, let's go join them. Hey—you guys, come over here first!"

Hearing Hachiman's shout, Klein and the other three retreated while intimidating the enemy. They greeted Hachiman with bright smiles.

"Long time no see, Nicholas!"

"It's been a long time, Nicholas! Let's fight alongside us!"

"Um...Mr. Hachiman, long time no see!"

"My only healing angel is Silica after all... By the way, have I really become Nicholas..."

The three of them looked at the confused Hachiman with a smile. Hachiman noticed their gazes and solemnly shook their hands and said:

"It's so great that you three can come. Thank you so much."

"How could I just sit back and do nothing when I heard my companions were in danger?"

"You're trying to save Asuna and Liz, right? Don't worry about it, Hachiman."

"That's right, it's only natural!"

"You are indeed the best partners. Excuse me, could you lend me a hand again?"

As the four of them were immersed in the joy of reunion, Komachi and Leafa also completed their reunion. The remaining fire elves had been reduced to about sixty people, but they seemed to have lost their will to fight and showed no signs of attacking for the time being.

"Hachiman-kun, please introduce these people to us first."

"Oh yes, these three are my and Kirito's former companions."

"I'm Klein! Please give me your guidance!"

"Agil, please take care of me."

"I'm Silica! Please give me your guidance!"

"As for Mr. Mebius, needless to say, he is our reliable senior."

"I'm Mebius, please give me your guidance!"

After hearing this introduction, Yukino and the others also introduced themselves. After they finished, Leafa timidly asked Mobius:

"Um... I've been wondering about this for a while now. Could it be that Mr. Mobius is the Mr. Mobius of the Water Spirit Lord?"

"Hey?"

Upon hearing this question, Yukino, a water spirit, showed a confused expression.

"Hey Yukino, aren't you a water spirit? Why are you saying 'Hey'?"

"I'm sorry, I've been active in the Fire Elf and Cat Elf Territories since the beginning of the game, and I haven't investigated the Water Elf Territory at all."

"I see. Then what is the true identity of the senior?"

"Yes, I am the lord of the water elves."

Meibiqi2shan⊙〦4j〢iu妻彡失]Us answered this question readily.

"real or fake......"

"But I haven't played for a long time, so I might have been fired."

"Although I've heard rumors about it, it seems he hasn't been officially dismissed yet."

Leafa seemed to have asked Sakuya about this and added this.

"I see, then the Lord is right after all."

“This development is truly unexpected…”

"Now that we have explained this, let's begin our attack on the Fire Elves."

"But they seem to have lost their will to fight? They don't dare to approach us at all. Maybe if Kirito defeats Eugene, this battle will be over?"

"It's indeed possible. It depends on Kirito's performance, but it's very likely."

At this moment, Klein glanced in Kirito's direction and suddenly said, as if remembering something:

"By the way, that fire spirit Kirito was fighting looked pretty strong."

"That's General Eugene, the younger brother of the Fire Elf Lord and the wielder of the Devil Sword, Instinct IV, and known as the strongest player in ALO."

"Is this true? He's such a powerful guy!"

Ignoring Klein's surprise, Hachiman asserted:

"It's pitiful, but his title endures to this day."

Agil, understanding the meaning, nodded in agreement.

"That's right, Kirito can't lose."

"Everyone really believes in Kirito-kun that much!"

"It's not so much belief as there's no room for doubt."

"Hachiman is also very strong, but if we were to say who is the strongest among us, he is still that guy."

"Kirito-kun is actually this strong!"

"certainly"

Hachiman nodded and shouted towards Kirito:

"Hey—Kirito! Klein, Agil, and Silica are here! Stop dawdling and take care of that guy!"

Hearing the shout, Kirito turned around, smiled delightedly, and raised his sword high.

"Roger that!"

"Then we will be responsible for containing the Fire Elf Army, even though we don't have to fight."

"If they dare to attack, it wouldn't matter if we just wipe them all out, right?"

"Well, it depends."

After Yukino finished speaking, everyone formed up in front of the Fire Spirit Army.

Now let’s go back in time a little.

Kirito and Eugene were engaged in a fierce one-on-one battle.

"Hey, Mr. Eugene, your men are dwindling, huh?"

"Tsk, not only you, that guy is also terrifyingly strong. Looks like I have to get rid of you as soon as possible."

"Although the winner will be me, watch out!"

As the two continued to clash, Kirito suddenly noticed that the sounds of fighting around him had disappeared.

"Hahahaha, have you canceled your transformation? Hmm? We have four more players who look like allies."

"What can just four people do?"

"The number of people on your side has decreased significantly, right?"

Eugene retreated slightly upon hearing this, checking his own strength. He estimated that 40% of his troops had indeed been lost.

"Damn it, 40% of them were killed? But you can't use illusion magic anymore, so I have the advantage."

"That's true, but that guy is also very strong in normal combat, and there are also Ms. Yukino and the others."

"We still have five times the number of troops. We can't lose."

"Really? Your men are starting to lose their will to fight. If we defeat you, the war might just end, huh?"

"Ha, try if you can."

"I think so too"

Just as the two were about to clash again, Kirito heard Hachiman's cry:

"Hey—Kirito! Klein, Agil, and Silica are here! Stop dawdling and take care of that guy!"

Kirito glanced towards his allies, his face lit up with joy.

"Really? They're finally here, Hachiman!"

Kirito raised his sword in response to Hachiman and shouted at Eugene:

"Sorry, I have absolutely no reason to lose now! Take this!"

"bring it on!"

The two's slashes collided again, but unlike before, Kirito clearly had the upper hand.

"Completely different from before... What exactly is this power..."

"You're too reliant on your weapon. That weapon's skill is too risky. If you're dodged the moment it pierces the enemy's weapon, you'll definitely suffer heavy damage from the counterattack, right? If the enemy is prepared for mutual destruction, this move will definitely backfire."

"Goo..."

"And I've already seen the timing of penetration. If the first strike penetrates, the second strike can block it. If the first strike is blocked, use the second strike to attack. Either way, you're finished."

As predicted, Kirito's attacks began to hit.

Eugene's attacks became increasingly aggressive, and Kirito naturally took advantage of this opportunity. At the moment when Eugene was about to strike with all his strength, Kirito would rather take some damage and still swing his sword with all his might.

Unfortunately, Eugene was using his weapon's penetration skill, and this attack was a perfect counterattack, dealing heavy damage to Eugene.

Eugene's attack missed, and Kirito took the opportunity to imitate the "Starburst Air Slash" posture and launched a series of attacks without the assistance of the system.

"That's it!"

"Ooohhhhhh!"

Countless hit effects exploded on Eugene, rapidly reducing his HP.

In the end, Eugene's HP was reduced to zero and he exploded, leaving only the holy fire "Remnant Light" burning in the air.

"Good job!"

"Kirito-kun is amazing!"
