*SLASH*

*SLASH*

*SLASH*

And *SLASH*

BAM! The monster is dead.

Kenshi: Phew. That make 22.

Shin: 22?! I only killed 19! *sigh* You're lucky that the monsters decided to attack over than me.

Kenshi: Yeah...

We sheathed our sword.

Kenshi: ...

Nearly two years have passed since this death game began. We're still fighting alone on the front lines. Shin always stick around me since the game started, not in the weird way of course.

As for Akihiko Kayaba, he's hiding out there somewhere, watching this world. What is he feeling right now?

Shin: I'm exhausting now. Shall we head home?

Kenshi: Yeah. That would be great.

As they're walking in the forest, they saw a Ragout Rabbit.

Shin: Is that...

Kenshi: Aww. That's a adorable little rabbit. Let's kill it.

Shin: Yea- Wait what?

When Shin turned to Kenshi, he saw that he's gone. And when he looked to the rabbit's direction, he saw Kenshi already killed it.

Shin: Oh, well. More food to make, I guess.

-Floor 50: Algade-

Me and Shin are walking to our apartment while I'm humming "Letter Addressed to the Sky" that me and Shin used to sing for the school.

???: Hey, you two!

A voice could be heard from behind us. We turned around and saw Kirito and Asuna.

Kenshi: Oh, Kirito and Asuna. Fancy meeting you here. Are you guys having a......

Before I even say the last word, I can see Asuna have a menacing look at me. Even Shin and Kirito could see it, they even sweating.

Kenshi: *nervously* .......walk?

In an instant, Asuna turned back to her normal self.

Asuna: Nope. Me and Kirito are going to have dinner at my house since he have a S-class ingredient for me to cook.

Shin: S-class ingredient? You have that too?

Kirito and Asuna shocked.

Kirito: You mean you also have one too?!

Kenshi: Yep.

Asuna: You guys sure are lucky... Say, if you want, I could cook for a dinner too.

Kenshi: Really?

Asuna: Yeah. Just so you know, I already maxed out my Cooking skill last week.

Shin: You maxed out your Cooking skill?!

Shin grabbed Asuna hand with both of his hands.

Asuna: Eh?!

Shin: Asuna, could you help me with my Cooking skill? I almost maxed it out.

Kirito: I didn't know he have Cooking skill.

Kenshi: Now you know it.

Asuna looked at Shin and smiled.
