(U/N) POV
"Guys! Sorry to ruin the moment, but we need to go to the floor 75 boss room ASAP!" I yell out
"Huh?" Liz asks confused
"Kayaba.....Kirito thinks he is Heathcliff, and if that's the case they need us up there," I continue as I go in my inventory.
"Here, these will teleport us to a location of a person on our friend's list, I bought them just in case," I say tossing a crystal to everyone.
"(U/N) calm down," Liz says concerned
"Liz I'm sorry but I can't," I say before I teleport to Kirito.
If this guy is Kayaba...he killed Max...Max's blood is on his hands!
As soon as I teleported in, I was forced to the ground. The hell!?
I look up to see Kirito and Heathcliff talking to each other. I look around to see everyone was paralyzed.
As I look around I see the rest of my friends teleport in and suffered the same fate
"Well well, looks like MindSwords decided to show up," Heathcliff says looking at me
"I suppose so," Punisher says threateningly. It didn't really turn out the way he wanted as he is pinned to the ground
"Is showing up to a battle in wedding alter a habit of yours," Heathcliff says to my guild
"You guys seriously didn't change?" I ask. I got into my armour just before I teleported.
"Hehe, no" All they say
"Anyway, if you haven't been told yet, I am the creator of this game," Heathcliff says
"And I will be the final floor boss of this game," he tells everyone
"However, as a reward for Kirito finding out my identity, I will return everyone to the real world if I die on this floor right here and right now." He continues this time more directed toward Kirito who is holding Asuna.
They talk for a bit before he lets her down, I can tell from her body language that she doesn't want him to fight.
Then he talks to Heathcliff or should I say Kayaba? Anyway, they start fighting.
I can tell Kirito is not holding back. Kirito is charging with everything he has, sending a fury of strikes. However, the creator of the game has too much of an advantage.
Kayaba will know the skills of dual weilding, therefore Kirito can't surprise him.
Heathcliff is smiling the entire time. Kirito can't touch him. Kirito is getting madder and accidentally activates one of his high combo sword attacks. It was at this moment Kirito knew....he fucked up.
Heathcliff blocked every attack. On the last attack, one of his swords broke and then all Kirito had was a cool down. With no one to switch with, Kirito was defenceless.
Heathcliff started to bring down his sword when suddenly, something happened
"No! Don't hurt him!" A child's voice filled the air. Before my eyes was Jenn. She must have run all the way here because I didn't give her a crystal to teleport here. Which would also explain why she wasn't paralyzed. Jenn was between Kirito and Heathcliff. As Heathcliff brought his sword down, instead of hitting Kirito he hit Jenn.
I watched in horror as her body hit the floor and shattered. This can't be happening, I look at Liz to see she is crying her eyes out.
And then it clicked, Jenn is dead. I start to make agonizing sobs as I spout out curses to Heathcliff.
Never did I have such hatred toward a person. He stood there smiling. I could feel my body charge up. I was mad...really mad, unknowingly I was able to get up.
"Looks like someone is mad," Heathcliff mocks me
"Die!" I yell as I use the final skill of my unique skill tree. This skill is called Lightning
Then in a bright flash, and a booming sound rumbled the whole boss arena. I appear before Heathcliff, and for the first time, I see the surprise on his face. I moved faster than light itself.
My sword was by my side and I heaved it toward his neck. He had no time to even think about what to do. The last thing he heard, was the thunderous sound from my attack.
Then after, he could see nothing. My sword cuts his head clean off and his body shatters in pieces.
Everyone was in shock, either from the fact that I just cleared the game, or that a child was just killed. I look at Liz and our eyes lock.
My face is wet from tears as I collapse. Liz finally can move and rushes by my side.
"Jenn she..." Liz starts before bawling her eyes out
"Shhh," I say before grabbing her and hugging her tight.
I see people start to disappear, I guess Kayaba wasn't joking about releasing everyone. But it doesn't matter, Jenn is dead. He killed her, and now....now....all I'm left with is Liz
"(U/N) before we go, what's your real name?" Liz asks me with her face stained with tears
"It's--" I start to say but I suddenly wake up in a hospital room
"Liz, it's (Y/N)" I say to thin air as doctors rush in.
Knotavin- Hello dear readers, I hope you enjoyed the first book remastered. The main goal of this was to rid the book of the many mistakes when I first wrote it almost 2 years ago. Editing wasn't the only thing that changed across books, there are original parts that aren't in book 1 so I hoped you enjoyed those extra 5 parts. Book 2 will also feature new parts just like book 1 did, so keep reading as we tag along with (U/N) in his adventure in the real world
