Hearing this, the two looked at each other and smiled evilly:

"I won't disturb the family reunion, I'll go back first."

"Tonight, the three of us have to sleep in a 川 (stacked triangle) shape."

"Nah, nagging, uncle and auntie"

After the two left, Yui stayed close to her parents, and the three of them actually slept in a "川" shape.

The next morning, when Hachiman woke up, he only saw Yui. Asuna had gotten up early and was making bento and breakfast.

"Yui, good morning."

"Um-ah, good morning, Dad."

"Oh, good morning, Yui."

"With Mom and Dad around, I sleep really well."

"Yeah"

(Feeling more mature than yesterday?)

"Yui, mom is cooking, go to the room over there."

"Rice, what is it?"

"what..."

(Yui doesn't need to eat. Asuna will be disappointed.)

"Nothing. Go find Mom."

The two walked hand in hand into the living room.

Good morning, Asuna.

"Good morning, Mom"

"Good morning, both of you"

"Sorry Asuna, Yui doesn't seem to need to eat."

“Ah, I see…”

Asuna looked a little lost, and Hachiman gently stroked her head. During the chat, Asuna also noticed Yui's growth.

"Yui-chan seems to have grown up a bit."

"She is worthy of being our daughter."

"Yeah, that's it!"

Later, Kirito arrives.

"Ah, good morning, Uncle Kirito!"

"Ah, um, good morning, Yui."

Kirito, who was still not used to being called uncle, was surprised by Yui's polite greeting. The four of them then headed towards the Black Iron Palace in the starting city.

SAO: Chapter 68: The Dire Situation of the Lower Class

"Ah, sorry you two, I have somewhere I want to stop by, is that okay?"

Asuna suddenly spoke as they were about to see the Black Iron Palace.

"That's fine, but where are we going?"

"I haven't been here recently, and I'm a little worried about the church situation."

"Ah—come to think of it, it's quite close from here."

The church was on the way to the Black Iron Palace, so there would be almost no delay. However, even if it was far, Hachiman and Kirito would not refuse Asuna's request.

"Does Kirito agree too?"

"Um"

"thank you all"

After walking for a while, when they were about to reach the church, Yui suddenly stopped.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Yui?"

"Dad, there's a very unpleasant feeling coming from over there."

(Did she sense anything? But since we're in town, there shouldn't be any danger. Let's go check it out.)

The three of them nodded to each other and walked in the direction Yui pointed. After a few steps, they saw a figure in front of them.

"Ah, that's the lady I met at church before."

"Are those people over there...military?"

There were several children standing next to the woman, and the soldiers were surrounding them, seemingly discussing something. As the four of them approached, they heard a conversation:

"If you can't pay the taxes, don't even think about passing through here"

"We don't need the army's help at all. After all, why are you collecting taxes?"

"If you don't pay, you won't be allowed to pass, it's that simple."

In the SAO system, if a player blocks the road, other players will not be able to pass. Just as Hachiman and Kirito were about to move forward, Asuna had already drawn her rapier and rushed out.

"Dad! Mom!" Seeing Asuna walking over alone, Yui looked at Hachiman with great concern.

"Don't worry, Yui. Mom is very strong."

"Rather, it's the other person who should be worried, but it's better to suffer a little for your own fault."

"yes"

"Although I've heard it before, the military is really rotten."

"Well, completely corrupt."

"I heard that the leader, Xinka, is a serious man."

"Probably someone from the Kibo faction."

When the name of Ya Wang was mentioned, the two showed complicated expressions.

"Although I don't have any fond memories with that guy, the former Kiba King was indeed seriously trying to capture him."

"Everything has changed since I was tricked by Rastir."

"In a sense, he is also a victim, but if he condones this kind of thing, I can't sympathize with him."

"I think he'll learn his lesson after being taught a lesson by Asuna."

At this moment, Asuna was glaring at the soldiers standing in front of them.

"Huh? Who are you?"

"Why would a woman hold a weapon? Why not just be obedient and be protected by us? Of course you have to pay protection money."

"Hahahaha, this girl is shaking."

Hachiman and Kirito knew it was a tremor of anger and silently prayed for the men.

"Shut up!"

Asuna mercilessly unleashed a "Linear Impact" on everyone. While their HP wouldn't be reduced, the impact sent the men flying, the tip of her sword resting in front of them.

"so?"

“Um, that…”

"Could it be that you are the legendary Flash..."

These guys with single-digit levels naturally had never seen top-level players. Now they were experiencing the strength of the strategy team for the first time and could only tremble in fear. One of them wanted to escape, but was knocked back to his original position by the frontal attack.

"Hachiman!"

Hachiman was standing to one side, sword drawn and pointing at them.

"Want to escape? My lovely wife has come to talk to you, so just stay put."

"Hey Hachiman...showing affection in public..."

"Lovely wife..."

Asuna almost lost her composure, but she suppressed her laughter and continued to stare:

"You've caused my dear husband so much trouble. Are you prepared?"

"Even Asuna..."

Although a little shy, Hachiman asked without showing it:

"Do you often do this kind of thing?"

"This, this is an order from my superior..."

"King Kiba's instructions?"

"Yes"

"Tell King Kiba: I said in the Boss Room on the 74th floor that there won't be a next time."

"Could it be that you are..."

"Whatever you say, we defeated the boss anyway."

The men were so scared that they knelt down and begged for mercy, and the three of them sighed helplessly.

"If you have any complaints, feel free to come to the Blood Alliance Knights to find Hachiman. Stop doing this kind of thing and get out of here."

"Y-yes! I'm sorry!"

After the men escaped, the rescued woman came forward:

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome! Are you the one who goes to church?"

"Yes, my name is Sasha and I have been taking care of these children."

"I'm Asuna of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, and this is my husband, Hachiman."

"Blood Alliance Knights Hachiman"

"This is Kirito, the black swordsman."

"Kirito, please give me your guidance."

"It's you all, the great people! Thank you so much."

As the three listened to Sasha's account of the army's atrocities, hurried footsteps were heard in the corridor.

"Sasha! I heard the army is coming..."

"Ms. Yuriel!"

The woman called Yuriel came running over.

"You are my benefactors, right? Thank you for your help."

"Oh, Hachiman, I've heard a lot about you."

"This staff uniform... could it be Silver Shadow? It's rumored that the Blood Knights have been vacant for a long time. Finally, the staff officer has appeared. What an honor."

"What is Silver Shadow?"

What is Silver Shadow?

"By the way, this staff uniform is famous? It's been mentioned several times."

"Where is the uniform recorded in the strategy guide?" VII Ten Divisions (Five) Fantasy Uniforms

"I see"

"Are you Flash Asuna?"

"Yes"
