I woke up and find myself in a world that I was addicted in. I find myself enjoying the view and enjoying the freedom. In this world, I am the boss. I can do everything. I am the strongest.
But then...
One day, something happened.
Log Horizon X S...
"It's hard to catch up with that!!!", Shira thought while going to her room. "How am I suppose to ask them for a mission?", Shira rolled on her bed. "Just ask them to do it", Shiro entered her room. "Who said you can enter without any permission", Shira flushed. "Of course, he doesnt need one", Akame entered via window. "Enter throught the door!!!", Shira scolded her. "I'm a ninja after all", Akame's eyes shined. "We'll be preparing the carriage. Prepare to go", Shiro instructed. "You forced them?", Shira asked. "I invited them", Shiro smiled.
Outside Log Horizon. 200 km away from the Zone.

"What a great view!!!!", Aika ran and rolled on the grassy plains. "Be careful...guys", Shira tried to warn them. "Oh, Aika. Dragonflies!", Rin pointed.
Shirayuki Sai's POV They are having fun. How am I suppose to stop them? I sat at the grass and watch them catch some bugs. I looked back and saw that the guild is no longer visible. Being in places like this is soothing. I hope Shiro's request will not require dungeons or cave. I received a message. "Go 10 km more and there's my request", Shiro mailed. I looked around and found nothing but vast fields. "Sorry, we will have to proceed", I apologized. Inspite of Rin's mature thinking. He still have a child inside of him. How about aika? Who is she before this?
"Spacing out is not good. It will cause our death", Rin startled her. "Of course I wont let you guys die", I raised my voice that scared Aika. "Sorry, I wasnt suppose to mean it that way", I apologized again. What's wrong with me? I looked at Rin and bowed.
"Sorry Rin. I was just... Trying to scare the two of you", Shira faked a laugh. "Shiro wants the two of you to get more experience on combat", Shira explained. "But...always remember that I will be there to save you", Shira gave a thumbs up. They walked further. "Shira, sorry for asking you again. What kind of person are you in the real world?", Aika asked. "Uhmmm. Before I came here, I was actually asked by my parents of what I like to do in the future. I'm that kind of person. I always look forward to the future that I prepared a lot in the past. Not thinking that, I wasnt actually living my life in the fullest", Shira explained. "I'm a high school student", she added. "I see. Thank you for telling us", Aika grabbed into her arms and held her hands. "If I have an older sister, I want it to be you", Aika smiled. "I would gladly have you as my sister", Shira smiled. The sun is already setting. "It's dangerous to be here", Rin looked around. "We have to look for some place to stay", Shira tried to teleport but it cant be done.

onster: Scare Crow Level: XXX Type: Berserk
Shira's eyes widened. "You go back to the entrance. Wait for me there", Shira instructed. The passageway are blocked. "It's now or never, Shira", Rin prepared his boomerang. Aika also draws her staff. "Guys", Shira looked with worry in her eyes. "We'll be your support", Rin assured.
Shirayuki's POV This level. I wont be able to beat this alone. I have to. I wont let anyone die. Shiro already felt the pain! I wont let him feel it again. But how should I...think. Think. Think.
Shiro's words are flashing before my eyes. "First things, first. Do not panic. Know your opponent. If it is higher than you, run. If ever passageways are blocked, secure your member. Recall their abilities. Knights and Assassins are for combat. Elves and bard are for support. Mages are suppose to stay behind".
"Aika, stay behind Rin. Watch my back, Rin", I instructed. I drawn my sword. "If the enemy is unknown. Never use close combat. Use your bow", Shiro's words. Shira gave a blow to the crow. The damage was zero. The crow was irritated and swing his bat on my stomach. I was paralyzed. Aika was able to heal me. Rin gave a barrier to me using his boomerangs. That was close. That Shiro, he must have overlooked on this monster. No. He will never do that. This world is not the same. I got on my feet and draw my sabers. I know I cant beat this guy but I have to do my best. I was able to pierce into his eyes. He got on the ground and rolled. Next, I asked Rin to remove my barrier and direct the boomerang to the crow. It gave a critical damage. The HP of the crow is already 40%. Mine was 80%. Aika's healing ability will last for 3 minutes and cool down for 5 minutes. "Aika, save the healing for later", I took precautions. The crow stood up and had a smirk on his face. He was looking towards my direction but it wasnt at me. I look behind and saw vines creeping to Rin and Aika's feet. He was about to attack them but I gave myself as a barrier. Blood is dripping everywhere. "You will not hurt them!", I stood up using the sabers as my support. My HP went down to 50% .
"You are one hell of a player", the crow spoke. "If I kill you, you'd die in real life. If you kill me, I will just respawn", the crow laughed. I looked back and saw Aika crying. Even she was crying, she's holding firm to her staff. The crow already regained his HP. Shiro... Shiro...what else? You havent taught me anything about this situation. A situation where in you see your members terrified. I removed my coat and changed my saber to two big sword.
