"Er [Y/N]?"

"What is it?"

"You kind of have a scary look on your face now."

"...Oh really?" You ask as you could not tell that you have a scary expression on your face. Currently, you and Yuuki are heading to the meet-up point where the remaining of the Sleeping Knight member was already there waiting got you all. However, despite you are helping them for the time being, you cannot get use to the fact that you are currently in the guild.

"Haizz... Will this be alright?" Yuuki mumble under her breath as you pretend not to hear her. Upon arriving the meeting point, you notice that you all are actually gathering in an inn. Surprise by the fact that they do not have a guild hall, you follow Yuuki in as she approaches a group of people.

You than decided to steep aside as Yuuki strike a conversation with them on something. "So, I have heard that you have defeated my little sister huh? Well that is a surprise. I am Ran, Yuuki older sister." Ran introduce herself as she offers you a handshake.

Not wanting to be rude to her, you reluctantly accept the handshake as you introduce yourself. "The name is [Y/N] or you can go via my game name as "PhantomDarkness00" if you like. I am fine with either been call by my real or my in-game name." You said as you let go of the handshake and glance at Yuuki and the rest of the member.

"I must say, your sister is one kind of daring person to challenge the boss with the current set up that your guild has to offer." You said to Ran as you notice the different way that way that they are dress up in. "Hahaha, I guess so... That why it my duty as her sister to watch over her as it is even in-game." Ran said as you glance at her thinking that she might be one of those overprotective sisters.

You stretch your head hesitating to ask her a question that have been on your mind now but decided to ask anyway. "Hey, I know that this might sound rude or so but I have heard that Yuuki said that this will be your guild last mission, right? May I ask what is the reason behind? I mean seeing how those people are smiling around Yuuki and you, I cannot seem to understand for it disband." You said as you look at the remaining of the member in the distance.

"I see...Yuuki did tell you about us disband huh. Well it is not really a big deal or anything but it just that most of us here is getting more and more busy with out university life and it's kind of hard for us to login like this to play together or even hang up. Hence, that is the reason." Ran said as she looks at you with a sad look on her face.

"Ah... I get it now. Because Yuuki is younger than her sister, she is still currently studying in school but her sister is a university student, she cannot afford to play around since she has her study to complete. And because of that, they want to create a non-forgettable memory so that even if they do not have time to meet up, just remember it will be good enough huh..." You thought in silence as you glance up at the member.

"Haizz, now I feel so stupid for doubting...Hey Ran-san? Mind introducing them to me?" You ask as you walk towards Yuuki the rest as Ran follow you behind. Upon reaching the table, Ran introduce each of the member to you and likewise to them. After the introduction have take place, you decided to go around to see if you could gather information about the boss that you guys are going to fight.

Although you said that, you were currently accompanying by Yuuki, who was occasionally giving you a weird look. Being annoy by it, you decided to ask what is up with her.

"Well, I should be asking you the same thing. Just now early on, you have a super scary and annoy look on your face and now you just seem to be back to your usual expression when you are with Asuna and the rest. What is going on?" Yuuki raise her eyebrow as you scratch your head explaining the reason of your change of attitude.

"...So that is why I now decided to help you all with my full strength. After all, I kind of understand that kind of feeling when you cannot hang out with your closest family and friend due to their schedule." You said as you bought 2 bottles of drinks from the nearby store and pass one to her explaining that is your treat.

"You know, I have been thinking for a while but you sure are a weird person [Y/N]. Not like I am insulting you or anything but well, you are mystery." Yuuki said as she walks beside you while slipping on the drink that you bought for her.

"Well I get that a lot from Kirito and the rest so I have to agree on that. Thou that said, I think we should focus on gathering the information on upcoming boss that we are going to deal with. I don't want other guild to get their hand on to the information first." You said as you walk towards a dark alley wondering if that person is that.

"Wait up [Y/N]! Where are you going?" Yuuki ask as she hurry to you while wondering what is there to collect in this dark alley. However, the next moment, she found out why did you come here.

"Yo Argo! Nice to see you doing well although, we could seriously pick another place for the deal even if I said that I want the information as quick and as stealth as possible." You said as you raise up your hand to greet the female cait-sith.

"Oh, you came. Well there is no better place to deal with this dark alley, right? And who is the cute girl that is behind you? Don't tell me you are starting to become Kii-bou? Well, who knows that you are a pickup artist." Argo tease you as you roll your eye.

"That not it thou. She is the girl I am currently helping out who is related to the request that I send you. Anyway, what about that matter?" You ask as you fold your arm while Argo let out a boring sigh before explaining to you what she have found out.

"I see... Well thanks for the information. Here is the amount for it. Consider it is a tip from me." You said as you send her a good amount of Yrd. Argo thank you for it and told you that if you need anything from her again, just say the word and she will get to it.

After seeing her leave, both you and Yuuki head back to the main street as you go into a deep thought. "According to Argo information, this boss is not a push over boss. I guess we need to prepare for it. That said, there is that matter that seem to bug me. Look like if that guild were to turn up, I will have to cut them down to prevent them from stepping into the boss room. I guess there is a lot to prepare huh." You mumble under your breath as you and Yuuki head to get the necessary supply for the upcoming fight.
