Why did Hikigaya save the anime girls in Sword Story?

"I see. Asuna chose it. This knife and fork is really tasteful."

"Right, right? The first time I saw it I thought 'this is it'!"

"You should carry it with you and promote my wife's taste."

"We had the upper hand just now, but we were suppressed without realizing it..."

"Terrible!"

At dinner, Hachiman and Asuna watched them devour their food, their mouths agape. Argo and Silica, however, were left completely unable to eat, and were meticulously cared for by the two. The two girls who decided to stay overnight spent the night in their room, talking for hours.

"Then I'm going to sleep first, you guys have fun."

"Well, goodnight, Hachiman."

"Xiao Ha, thank you for today~"

"Mr. Hachiman, thank you very much!"

The next day, looking at the two of them looking refreshed, Hachiman felt relieved and couldn't help but sigh: "My wife is truly the best." This slightly off-kilter thought quietly lingered in his heart.

SAO: Chapter 73: Haruno's Reality Revealed

Yumiko Miura happened to appear in Hachiman's hospital room that day.

Most of her high school friends no longer live in the area, but she's been admitted to a university near the hospital and often visits Hachiman. Despite her outward appearance, she unexpectedly has a motherly, kind nature: Miura.

"Autistic man, let me tell you..."

Every time he came to the ward, Miura would always initiate a conversation with Hachiman. Although the topics were mostly about family matters, the strange thing was that compared to their school days, the two of them were now more like close friends.

After hearing about Hachiman's silent devotion to their group after being trapped in SAO, and his efforts to find out about Hayama's future studies, Miura is deeply grateful to him. Incidentally, she confessed her love to Hayama on graduation day but was rejected.

-月*沂/崎侕⑶O ⑷九企厁私 Just when the atmosphere was warm and cozy, there was a knock on the door, and the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and the person who walked in was Yang Nai, who was already familiar to her.

"Hey Miura-chan, you're here today too. You're so attentive, could you be in love with Hikigaya-kun?"

"Ah, yes, yes, that's it."

"That's really perfunctory."

"Anyone would be tempted by your constant lectures..."

"We're gathering everyone to install surveillance equipment today. Miura-chan can continue chatting with Hikigaya-kun."

Whenever Miura was around, Haruno would always show up, and over time it became natural for the two of them to chat with Hachiman at the same time.

"Speaking of summoning someone, is there anyone you want to come?"

"Hmm? Almost all the relevant people will be here. Of course, they're all acquaintances of Miura-chan."

"If I'm in the way here..."

"Miura-chan, don't you want to know what's going on with Hikigaya-kun?"

"Eh? Can you tell me this?"

"The details won't be revealed until everyone is gathered. If you want to know, stay."

"In that case... then I'll wait a little longer."

The first to arrive were Iroha and Komachi's student council partners.

"Miura-senpai! Long time no see!"

"Iroha, long time no see"

"Yumiko-senpai, thank you for visiting me so often!"

"I'm just on my way to school."

"Sister Yukino and Sister Yui have rarely been able to come lately. Brother must be very lonely. It's great that Senior can come!"

"But I'm not that familiar with the autistic guy."

"But my brother told me before! He said that although he initially thought you were difficult to get along with, shortly before being trapped in SAO, he praised you as 'actually a thoughtful and gentle girl'!"

"Autistic men actually..."

"It's rare for a senior to praise someone! Could it be that he's talking about Miura-san..."

"No, no, the president probably isn't at the point where anyone would pay attention to him..."

"Komachi, what did you say?"

"Nothing~ Ah! Sister Yukino and Sister Yui are here too!"

Following the direction of Komachi's finger, Yukino and Yui were walking side by side. They quickly arrived at the ward and were both surprised when they saw Miura.

"Yumiko's here too! Long time no see!"

"Why is Miura-san here?"

"Ah, my school is nearby, so I come here often. I just happened to receive the call today."

"I see... We're really busy lately..."

"Well... after all, everyone..."

"Don't worry, I'll come and see you often."

"Thank you, Miura-san."

"Thank you Yumiko!"

After the pleasantries, everyone began to discuss their recent situation. Meanwhile, Yang Nai finished debugging the equipment and gathered everyone in front of the display screen.

"Now, let me explain why we've gathered everyone here. Feel free to ask any questions you have."

Although everyone nodded, Miura, who had no idea about the inside story of SAO, seemed particularly curious.

"Let's give Miura-chan some lessons first."

"No, no need to..."

"Oh, you clearly care about me~"

"Well... a little..."

Haruno began to explain, "First of all, it is certain that Hikigaya-kun is still fighting on the front lines and maintains his position in the top three of the ranking list."

"Huh? That autistic guy?" Miura's eyes widened, obviously unable to connect the impression he had of Hachiman with the top player.

"And the fact that he and Ms. Asuna are always teaming up hasn't changed."

"Ms. Asuna? Yui, who is that?"

Miura was shocked again when he heard the unfamiliar female name.

"Uh... that's the girl who's always teamed up with Hachiman..."

(?一? ?) Qiduyi `③栮~Erjuul "Eh hey hey hey——"

Miura was speechless at the fact that "that autistic man actually..."

"Sister, since we've gathered everyone here, there must be some major progress, right?"

"That's right, but before we get down to business, let me announce this: I've officially joined RECT."

Applause and exclamations rang out in the ward. In fact, the appointment had already been made, but Yang Nai chose to announce it today.

"RECT is...?"

"The parent company that manages the SAO servers is also the one that currently operates ALO."

"Yui, are you guys playing that game?"

"Yumiko, do you want to try it?"

"Well...if everyone is playing..."

"You're always welcome, Miura-san."

"Please give me your guidance, Yukinoshita-san."

The two who were once called the "Queen of Hellfire" and the "Queen of Ice" can now get along harmoniously. I wonder what Hachiman would think if he saw this scene.

Yang No finally got to the point: "I called everyone together today because I discovered some shocking data."

The sound of swallowing saliva is clearly audible.

"Are you mentally prepared? Especially Yukino-chan, Yuigahama-chan, and the president."

"If you specifically mentioned it... could it be that?"

"How terrible. I'm guilty of... "

"We've discussed this countless times before, it's no problem!"

"Sister, please tell me quickly."

"But today it's not an oral presentation, there will be video footage."

The moment the display screen lit up, a photo of Hachiman and Asuna, dressed as staff officers of the Blood Knights, came into view.

"This... is completely different from what I imagined..."

Yukino was the first to speak: "I'm reluctant... but you're a perfect match. I've never seen an expression like that on Hikigaya-kun's face."

"Hachiman... is completely different from before."

"Senior's partner is so beautiful too! Is this her real appearance?"

"It is indeed Miss Asuna from the Yuuki family."

"This is Komachi's new sister! Can I take a picture, Ms. Haruno? I need to tell my parents right away!"

“It’s okay if only family members watch it.”

9 Lengliusi Sulfur Fin VIII Erba Yueyi "Autistic man... he's quite handsome"

"Eh?"

Everyone turned their heads and found Miura staring at the screen with a red face.

"What's with Yumiko's reaction?!"

"Looks like this everyday joke is going to become a real thing. There's actually another one with a different outfit."

The moment the second photo appeared, the two people in suits and wedding dresses caused an uproar in the ward.

"Is this really Hikigaya-kun? If so...it's a bit..." Yukino rarely became shy.

"Oh no! Hachiman is like two completely different people! It makes my heart beat faster!"

"Senior, this killing power is too unfair!"

"Brother...Komachi has always believed that you are the original stone!"

"This is the real autistic man..."

“As expected, it has become like this…”

"Does sister think so too?"

“It’s really a shock~”

As Yang No said this, she tried to hide her phone, but Yukino saw through her.

"Everyone hold my sister down!"

"There must be something fishy in the phone!"

Hachiman on the standby screen revealed the truth.

"Running away is not worthy of praise, sister."

"Sorry... It was so shocking that I set it as my wallpaper..."

"That's so cunning! We have to set one up too!"

"Since my sister has agreed, please do as you please~"

Komachi chose a full group photo, while the other four chose a solo photo of Hachiman.
