Chapter 09: The truth is out

Author's POV

Sugou keeps trying to override the system on Asuna's protection barrier but he couldn't get access on it.

Back on ALfheim Online, Shiryou, Kirito and Leafa continue's their way to the Meeting.

Leafa: "So Shiryou. How did you finish the game?"

Shiryou: "Just beat the Boss, and let everyone out."

Leafa: "And your weapon is a Katana?"

Shiryou: "Yeah."

Kirito: "Where did you get that? It looks like a high tier weapon."

Shiryou: "It's because it is. I asked a Blacksmith to merge the two swords into one."

Leafa: "What?! That's would cost a 100,000 Yrd!"

Shiryou: "So?"

Leafa: "That's a high price to pay!"

Shiryou: "I can always make more money here."

Leafa: "Seriously, just how rich are you?"

Kirito: "Actually, he's the new owner of the Argus. The Company that made Sword Art Online."

When Kirito said that, Leafa just stood there like a statue.

Shiryou: "Do you really have to say that to everyone?"

Kirito: "O-Oh... Sorry."

Shiryou: "Anyway, Leafa. Don't tell anyone who I am, or else I would have send some assassin on your house to eliminate you."

Leafa(Scared): "H-Hai! I-I promise I won't tell anyone!"

Shiryou: *Chuckle*"I'm just kidding about the assassination. But seriously, don't tell anyone."

Leafa(Scared): "H-Hai!"

Kirito: "Looks like our wings is good to go."

Shiryou: "Then let's go."

They all spread their wings and start flying again.

Leafa: "We only have 10 minutes till the meeting start."

Ritsu: "Sir. I'm seeing a large group of players over there."

Yui: "60 of them in total."

Kirito: "That must be the Salamanders!"

Shiryou: "You two head to the Leaders and help them. I'll deal with the Salamander."

Leafa: "Are you sure you can handle them?! They're too many!"

Shiryou: "Just do as I say!"

They two of them nodded and he went to the fleet of Salamanders. They were about to attack the leaders but Shiryou stab one of them in the back, alerting the others.

Salamander1: "Who are you?!"

Salamander2: "What's a Springgan doing here?!"

Salamander3: "Doesn't matter! Kill him!"

They all charge at Shiryou but he easily dodge their attack. He brought out his Katana and dash to five of them, killing the in each strike.

Salamander1: "What the hell?! Only one hit?!"
