Sword Art Online

The Murder Case To Solve

Yuri's Pov

The morning came as if was now February 24, 2024, me and Tiffany went to floor 47 named floria to get the flower from the hills of memories. As we got to town, She saw the flowers as I looked around as saw coupled everywhere. Tiffany then got up and said

"Sorry for making you wait." She blushes as we walked to the route we go to

As we went over the bridge, I stopped and she stopped

"Here. Take this blue crystal." I said giving her a blue crystal

"Huh?? But why??"

"If anything happens unexpected, I'll tell you to warp out. Use this and it'll teleport to any town. Understand?"

"Ok." She said as she took it

"Alright let's keep going. This path leads to the hills of memories" I said

We walked and walked. It was silent as Tiffany broke it.

"Um.. Yul--"

"Ahhhh!!!"

She was lift up by a flower she had to hold her skirt up and said as the flower monster opened its mouth

"Yul!! Help me!! Help me!!" She panicked

"Calm down, Tiffany. It's very weak.

"Yul!! Save me!! Don't look and just save me!!" She said as I cover my eyes

"H-how can I??" I said still covering my eyes

"This is enough!!" She said as she cut its vines and kills it.

She lands on the ground and covers her back skirt and asked

"Did you see it??"

I closed my index finger to connect with my other fingers and said

"N-no I didn't."

We then walked more and kill more monster as they respawn to the game. I would hit a little a bit and she would take all the points to level up. We then end up walking peacefully as she asked

"So Yul. Can you tell me more about your sister?? I know it's impolite to asked things from the real world. It is ok??" As I nodded

"Well, I call her my sister but she's actually my cousin, so I don't know if she knows about it. Maybe that's why, I keep my distance away from her. Our grandfather is really strict. When I was eight, he made us attend to a local kendo dojo, but I stopped after 2 years. Grandfather got mad and start beating me up." I said

"That's horrible."

"But my sister said that she will work hard enough for the both of us and to stop hitting me. She really worked hard and made it to the Nationals."

"That's great."

"But.. I felt bad about it.. I thought maybe she got sick of it and would quit to do something else. So it's possible that I'm helping you because it feels like the way I feel about my sister..... I'm sorry." I said

"I don't think your sister hates you. You can't work hard for someone you don't like. I'm sure she likes kendo." She said as I smiled

"You always cheer me up. Thank you." I said

"Okay! I will do my best too!" She said we then walked more.

We finally reach to the end.

"The flower should revive here."

"Yea. It's right up there." I said pointing up the hill.

She begins to run as I watched her reach to the end. I was right behind her as the flower blooms.
