Naoki Kiritani finally mustered up the courage to come to Asuna's room.
The room number was naturally given to me by a classmate named Usagizawa Fukasumi who wished to remain anonymous.
According to a source named Usagi Fukasumi who wished to remain anonymous, she went to great lengths to obtain information about Asuna from the sidelines. After recounting the details to Kirigaya Naoki, she subtly mocked him in the chat.
Naoki Kiritani sent a dogeza (a traditional Chinese form of prostration) emoticon.
This surprised Usagizawa Fukasumi, who was on the other side.
Wow, why can you send emojis?
Naoki Kiritani was standing outside the door, looking somewhat embarrassed.
He knocked on the door, and Asuna inside should have received his request to enter the room.
However, there was no sign of the door being opened, nor was there any system notification of rejection from the other party.
Standing outside the door, Kirigaya Naoki scratched his cheek, pondering how to start the conversation.
He was also wearing a slightly loose yukata, which hugged the boy's strong body. Needless to say, the boy's appearance was striking: bright gold eyes and dazzling golden hair. His handsome features and sunny smile made him a quintessential blond-haired character in the doujinshi.
Those blond guys who casually flirt with other people's girlfriends.
He stood at the door for about ten minutes. Luckily, this was the second floor, and there were only four players here so far, otherwise he would have really been in deep trouble.
Just as he was about to sigh and leave, the door opened.
Asuna stood behind the door with a sullen face.
Naoki Kiritani unconsciously flashed a hearty smile.
But the other party wasn't buying it at all. She coldly glanced at the grinning boy and said, "Come in."
Upon hearing this, he smiled sullenly, entered the room, and closed the door behind him.
The door clicked shut.
However, out of Kirigaya Naoki's sight, Asuna's originally indifferent expression instantly turned red with embarrassment, and her cheeks flushed an unnatural red.
To be honest, she felt a little regretful after letting Kirigaya Naoki in.
How is this any different from inviting a wolf into the house? Although she did think that way at first, she couldn't help but hesitate when it came to this.
She took a few deep breaths, repeatedly telling herself not to panic. When she turned her head, her expression returned to calm. She pulled out a chair next to the bed, pointed to the seat next to her, and said, "Sit down."
Naoki Kiritani was puzzled, but sat down as instructed.
The moonlight was hazy, and the pure white moonlight shone on the face of the young man, Yin Jun. The room was not lit, but the moonlight alone was enough to illuminate everything inside. Although it was not as bright as when the lights were on, it was precisely this pure white moonlight and the hazy, indistinct feeling that created the most atmospheric atmosphere.
Naoki Kiritani looked at the girl.
How old is the girl now? The little girl who used to follow behind me has grown into a young woman.
This feeling of nurturing someone made Naoki Kiritani feel both gratified and accomplished.
Especially when you're not a father, you don't have to face the terrible choice of having your own cabbage eaten by another pig.
Neither of them spoke. Looking at Asuna's calm expression, even Kirigaya Naoki, who had known her for many years, couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
Naoki Kiritani was never one to beat around the bush, and he wouldn't overthink things if he couldn't guess. He asked directly, "What does Asuna want with me?"
The title is no longer Asuna, but Asuna, which is a subtle hint from Naoki Kiritani.
Asuna ignored him, pretending not to hear the boy's hints, and looked out the window at the world.
The world outside is beautiful.
The night sky is filled with countless stars, their twinkling light forming the Milky Way. Looking down from above, one can see the empty streets of Urbas, with NPCs standing in twos and threes along the street, including the elderly, children, and rugged-looking men.
A gentle breeze blew in through the window, ruffling Asuna's hair and brushing against the boy's cheek.
The white curtains swayed gently in the breeze.
The night was hazy; this is what nighttime looks like.
Asuna was silent for a moment before suddenly speaking, "Do you think we can make it through alive?"
For some reason, my thoughts, which were originally full of desire, were suppressed and replaced by a sense of melancholy.
Worries about the present, worries about the future.
One hundred floors, a full one hundred floors.
The game's difficulty is undeniable.
The higher you climb, the harder it gets, especially now that life is only given to you once.
Kirigaya Naoki suppressed his smile, looked at the girl's slightly hesitant expression, sighed, and nodded seriously: "Clearing the game is a given. With me here, even if I die, I won't let you die, and clearing the game is only a matter of time."
Asuna rolled her eyes at Kirigaya Naoki and said, "Don't say such unlucky things. I'm just feeling a bit sentimental."
Naoki Kiritani thought to himself, "Didn't you say that first?"
Asuna looked out the window and continued, "I just think that even if I can leave this game, it will be two or three years later, or even five years. Five years of time, and I haven't done anything. In reality, I'll probably just be lying quietly in the hospital. My mother will be so worried about me. She'll probably want to point her finger at me and scold me. But five years, five years of being cut off from the outside world."
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh again.
She was not an indecisive person; on the contrary, Asuna was stronger than most men, so she only sighed and did not show any sadness or blame others.
She was just a little worried.
Looking at Yuuki Asuna in front of him, Kiritani Naoki stood up and hugged the girl.
Girls are ultimately emotional beings, and they need to be comforted at times like this.
And indeed, that is the case.
Kirigaya Naoki felt the soft, delicate body in his arms. Asuna exuded a unique fragrance, the scent of a young girl fresh from a bath. Her chestnut hair cascaded down her waist. Holding the girl's slender waist, Asuna's face was now flushed with embarrassment, her previous composure completely gone.
Kirigaya Naoki leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered, "It's okay. After we get out, if no one else wants you, I will."
Suddenly, Asuna's eyes widened. The boy's directness was so blunt that she was completely taken aback.
After so many years, Naoki Kiritani has finally said these words at this moment.
I'll just write about Se Se and occasionally intersperse some battles. I guess it'll be boring because I don't know how to write battles. Since that's the case, I'll just focus on Se Se. I'll write a section about backwardness first and then follow up with Mushoku Tensei.
