SAO: The Story Of A Legend

Chapter 51

"Oh, yeah! You think it's real?!"

"Yeah, definitely!! I mean, the GM's sent it out! It's gotta be legit!"

The two players walked around outside of town, scrolling through their menus.

"It says we just go to the cave just outside town....that's the one we discovered!!!"

"Well then let's check it out!!!"

"Yeah! I mean, Legendary items for two players? That's my kind of quest!"

The two of them walked, searching for the cave they had just recently discovered. They had eventually found it.

"This is it! It says it's inside, and that we'll 'know it when we see it' hmm, sounds cool!"

"Wait, wasn't this cave pretty small? I mean, we searched the whole thing, and saw everything there was to see in less than 5 minutes! Don't you think maybe it would be in a bigger cave...?"

They stared at each other for a second.

"Nah! It'll be here, for sure!"

"Yep, definitely!"

They both walked in, and in just a few minutes, they found what they were looking for. A beautiful, glowing Diamond sat on a rock, at the end of the room.

"There it is!"

The two players ran up to it.

"It's beautiful, man!"

"Yep. I call dibs!"

"What?! Dude no fair! I saw it first!"

"Actually we both saw it at the same time!"

"Actually not true! Because when we walked in here, you looked at the walls, and didn't look at it first!"

"But neither did you! If you were watching me, then you couldn't have seen this before I did!"

"Whatever! Just take it!"

The player touched the Glowing Diamond, and it disappeared.

"W-what?! Where'd it go?!?!"

A message popped up in front of him.

"1 new item has been added to your inventory"

"Hmm....'Memory Diamond' well....sounds legit! The info says it can't be traded until we've taken it from our inventory, so I'm gonna take it out!"

He clicked on it, and it appeared in front of them. It exploded, and turned into a beautiful, young woman.

"Hello. I see you have found my Diamond...."

"W-woah! What's your name??"

"My name is not to be shared. I see you two desire power?"

"Well.....the legendary equipment gives us a lot of power, and we get it for turning your little diamond in, so yeah pretty much!"

"Well....what if I made you a deal...?"

"Hmm? Want kind of deal?!"

She giggled and gently placed her hands on his cheeks.

"What if I told you, that you could control this world? Control the GM's, the monsters, the dungeons, quests, everything."

He raised an eyebrow, and seemed intrigued. He looked at his friend, and they both nodded.

"We're in."

------------Hikaru's POV------------
"I don't get it, this makes no friggin sense!"

"Yeah, I know."

"Why would someone do such a thing?"

Orochi paced around, rubbing his head.

"Do we have any leads?! Nothing?"

"No, man we've got nothing. Absolutely nothing....."

"Man, I'm about to go punch the GM's!!! Seriously I've about had enough--"

Orochi completely stopped talking. I looked up to where he was, and he was just gone....did he log out....?
