Why did Hikigaya save the anime girls in Sword Story?

"Ok!"

The two walked side by side towards Hachiman's house.

"Just call me Kaori"

"Then call me Asuna."

"Please give me your guidance, Asuna!"

"Well, please teach me Kaori!"

"By the way, there is something I want to ask you."

"Well, just ask!"

Kaori hesitated and said, "It's okay if you don't want to answer. What's the matter with going to the Hikigaya family so early?"

"Ah—I am indeed curious. Actually, I want to go to school with Hachiman-kun."

Kaori suddenly stopped and said, "I've never seen this school uniform before, especially with Hikigaya."

"Yes, it's the uniform of the school attended by SAO survivors."

"I see, then Asuna also experienced that game."

"Um"

"I'm sorry for being so presumptuous."

Seeing Kaori's guilty expression, Asuna hurriedly said, "Don't be like this. Although there have been painful times, there have also been many happy times. It is thanks to Yugi that I was able to meet Hachiman-kun, so please treat me as usual and feel free to ask any questions you have."

Kaori slapped her cheek and said, "Got it! I'm sorry for being rude just now, Asuna."

"It's okay, Kaori, you can ask anything you want."

"Ok!"

Seeing Kaori smiling again, Asuna also smiled.

"They said they were going to school together. Could it be that Asuna is Hikigaya's girlfriend?"

Faced with the direct question, Asuna happily answered immediately: "Yeah!"

Kaori stared at her in amazement and sighed, "I see, that Hikigaya actually has a girlfriend too. I'm so happy for him! What's Hikigaya like now?"

"Very reliable and gentle. He's saved me many times, even though he usually speaks with a sharp tongue."

"Ah, I understand this!"

Kaori smiled nostalgically as she recalled Hachiman's sharp tongue in her memory.

"But it's really good to see that Hikigaya and Asuna are safe!"

"Thanks to the joint efforts of Hachiman-kun, Kazu-kun, and many other friends, we were able to complete the game, and that's why we were able to meet Kaori today."

Kaori suddenly remembered the rumor: "Oh right! I heard that among the three players who made the greatest contribution to the game completion, Hikigaya was one of them?"

"Hey? This rumor has spread. Please keep what I just said a secret!"

Seeing Asuna's panic, Kaori widened her eyes: "Could it be that the last one is Asuna?"

"If the rumor says there are three, the last one is probably me."

"Asuna is so strong!"

"Forget it, guess it."

Looking at Asuna who blushed and admitted it, Kaori suddenly took her hand and shook it up and down: "Amazing, awesome! Be my friend! Tell me more interesting stories next time!"

"Ok!"

The two finally arrived at Hikigaya's house. Asuna nervously pressed the doorbell, and the next second the door flew open, and Komachi rushed out.

"Sister! I've been waiting for you for so long!"

Just as Komachi was about to hug her, she suddenly noticed Kaori behind Asuna, and their eyes met.

"Eh? Could it be Miss Kaori?"

"Ahaha, Komachi-chan, long time no see."

The sharp eyes of a female detective swept across the ends of Kaori's hair, and suddenly revealed a cunning look: "There is a graffiti face on the third page of my brother's junior high school yearbook. So the real person is here."

She deliberately emphasized the word "graffiti" and looked at Kaori's cheeks that turned red instantly, like a cat that had succeeded in a prank.

After the explanation, Komachi remembered the Christmas incident her brother mentioned, and judged that Kaori would not hurt Hachiman again, so she agreed to let her in with her.

ALO: Chapter 149: Acting like a spoiled child ~ Officially announcing the relationship

"Excuse me for disturbing you."

"Excuse me~"

Asuna and Kaori walked into the house and sat down on the sofa in the living room with a little nervousness. After finding that the house was empty, Asuna asked Komachi:

"Komachi, where are your uncle, aunt, and Hachiman-kun?"

"puff"

"Komachi?"

Hearing Komachi's strange laughter, Asuna looked at her in confusion. She took out her phone, trembling all over, and after a few quick operations, turned the screen towards Asuna:

"Sister, sister! Please say what you just said again to the camera!"

"Eh? Ah, um. Um... Komachi, where are your uncle, aunt, and Hachiman-kun?"

"Thanks so much! The audio was successfully recorded!"

Asuna was stunned by Komachi who was dancing with excitement. Although Kaori didn't understand the situation, she couldn't help laughing at this interesting interaction.

"Komachi, what the hell is going on?"

"Here's what happened! Mom and Dad heard that Hinana-san was coming, so they went on strike today and didn't want to go to work. In exchange, I promised to take a video of my san and show it to them!"

“I see.”

"This video is about random thoughts (VII) II. I'm sure it will make Mom and Dad happy! My allowance upgrade plan was a complete success! Yay!"

"Great! Yeah!"

Kaori suddenly followed Komachi and cheered with a thumbs up. At this time, footsteps were heard on the stairs, and Hachiman, wearing pajamas and holding his hair, walked down.

"Komachi is so lively, maybe I'm still asleep."

Seeing the scene in the living room, Hachiman turned around and was about to go back to his room, but Asuna grabbed his wrist:

"Good morning, Hachiman-kun! Look carefully, it's the real me!"

"Start it up, Hachiman-kun!"

The moment he heard this code, Hachiman suddenly woke up and became alert. After taking a clear look at his surroundings, he said helplessly, "Don't scare me... Is it Asuna?"

"Good morning, Hachiman-kun!"

Komachi, who witnessed the whole process, murmured, "As expected of a big sister, she can easily wake up that brother who has trouble getting out of bed."

At this time, Hachiman noticed Kaori: "Isn't this Orimoto? What's going on now?"

Kaori smiled and explained, "I happened to meet Asuna who came to visit you, so I came along. It's great to see you so lively again after the Christmas incident. Welcome back."

When Hachiman scratched his head and thanked him, Kaori suddenly suggested exchanging contact information. After exchanging information, Kaori left humming a song.

"Actually, I got up early today because I wanted to go to school with Hachiman-kun." Asuna explained while staying in the living room.

The tips of Hachiman's ears turned slightly red. "Next time, let me pick you up. It's okay if it happens occasionally."

"My brother just whispered, 'I'm happy too'" Oh!" Komachi suddenly revealed.

"Komachi! Give your brother some face!"

"Because I like my sister more than my brother~" Komachi said, pulling Asuna up: "By the way! There's a room I want to show my sister!"

In the empty room on the second floor, the simple bed and wardrobe made Asuna's eyes sparkle: "Is this my room?"

"You're always welcome to stay with me~" Komachi had barely finished speaking when the aroma of fried eggs wafted up from downstairs. Hachiman was making breakfast: "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

“Actually, I brought the ingredients here to make breakfast.”

"Then let's do it tomorrow?"

"Okay! I'll stay here tonight!"

"That's great! It's my first time staying over!" Komachi cheered.

"Wait! Your parents..."

"As long as my uncle and aunt are here, it's fine!" Asuna's dominance forced Hachiman to retreat. After breakfast, the three of them set off on the warm journey to school.

After arriving at the station by bus, Komachi decided to say goodbye here first.

"Then sister, I will wait for you at home tonight!"

"Ok!"

From the time they left the house until they arrived at the station, Asuna and Komachi were the main ones chatting. Hachiman felt a little left out, so he took the opportunity to show his authority as an older brother to Komachi.

"Komachi, be careful. If anything happens, contact me immediately."

Komachi gave a rather perfunctory answer to this.

"Ah—Okay, okay, um, I'll be careful~"

Then Komachi suddenly put on a serious expression and continued to say to Hachiman:

"Brother, you must protect your sister-in-law well and never let her get into danger.

If something happens to my sister-in-law and she can't come tonight."

Finally, Komachi released a shocking murderous aura and said this,

Hachiman swallowed his saliva and asked timidly:

"If you can't come?"

"Komachi will tell my sister-in-law everything she knows about my brother's relationships with women."

"How can I possibly do that?"

Komachi said this in a low voice.

Hachiman was about to protest that he had never done anything like that, but Asuna immediately interrupted:

"Hey hey? What's that, Komachi? Sister-in-law wants to hear it right now!"

Komachi was slightly intimidated by Asuna's aura, but she still managed a smile and said:

"It's okay, sister-in-law! It's all just embarrassing stories from being dumped!"

Asuna nodded with an understanding expression.

"Ah—I see, it's the fault of those shortsighted and foolish fellows.

That's really not worth listening to.

However, it is a good bargaining chip to use against Hachiman-kun.

Sorry, Komachi, I had a misunderstanding just now and almost crushed those guys, huhu."

Hearing these dark words, the Hikigaya siblings couldn't help but tremble.

"Hey Komachi, stop pressing Asuna's weird switches."

"Yeah, yeah, I like this dark sister-in-law Komachi too, but I'll be careful."

Komachi waved goodbye to the two,

Asuna and Hachiman took another train and arrived at the nearest station to the school.

"Okay, just in time for the appointment!"

Asuna said so, Hachiman asked in confusion:

"Hmm? Time? Any plans?"

"Ah, that's right, just in time to get to school."
