Kazuto Kirigaya once wondered if life could be normal, but he supposed there was no way that was going to happen, huh?

Ah, right. No one would probably understand why he'd say that, of course. Yeah, that would need a lot of explanation that he really wasn't a normal kid like all the other kids.

Don't trust my word. Trust his.

Kazuto was a bright child. Despite his youth, he had been prone to picking up on stuff that would have been deemed too difficult or complex for the minds of others. And truly, such was proven by how he had been capable of building himself a computer at the age of ten! His own mother was gobsmacked, and his little sister absolutely praised him for just how amazing of a brother he was, enough so to give him a healthy blush on his face.

But then curiosity takes over him. Just a small drop of it, really, which was more than enough to get him to do some research on something... and lo and behold, he discovered that his aforementioned mother and sister weren't his mother and sister at all, but just his aunt and cousin on his real mother's side.

So where'd they go? Dead. Car accident on the same year of his birth.

That shocking revelation really had its effect on him, causing him to put some distance away from friends and his own family, in shock and just distressed and confused. Nothing made sense.

But being a normal Japanese teenager he was, he still had his moments where playing games never got old, especially when the NerveGear—the technology invented by Akihiko Kayaba that allowed FullDive, a revolutionary method of playing games—was introduced.

Then came 'Sword Art Online', an incredible game set around the idea of medieval battling and swordsmanship in a floating castle in the sky that had him excited—in fact, the Beta Test had excited millions of people, and only the lucky ten thousand had been the ones to be able to dive in.

Unfortunately, things take a turn for the worst when the game creator, Akihiko Kayaba himself, announces that the game was in fact a death game, one that would undeniably kill the player sin real life if they die in-game.

From there, they fight to progress onto the next floors, Kirito makes a name for himself as a 'Beater', somehow builds himself a small roster of allies and friends, somehow finds himself falling in love with a girl he's fought alongside with for the good two years (and vice versa), becoming a father to an A.I. of all things, and ultimately beating Kayaba at his own game (who had been revealed to be Heathcliff, who was the leader of the guild Asuna was part of) and finally freeing everyone.

But really, things just never go the way anyone hopes.

Kazuto, once more in the real world, finds his fiancé still unconscious, learning from an old friend that she's somehow kept trapped in another game; 'ALfheim Online', a world based on Norse mythology with fairies, gods and magic.

So he dived into the virtual world once more, teaming up with a fairy he learned at the end of his journey was really Suguha, his cousin a.k.a. his adoptive sister, and marched on to their destination with the help of countless other players from all other races, helping him reunite with Asuna both in the game world and finally in the real world, and happy ever after.

Again, another mission for him to undertake since he's just that good at VR games (he blames himself), Kazuto has to dive into 'Gun Gale Online', the world of guns and battling other players, to investigate the case of Death Gun, some sort of rumour where players are killed by this strange masked player. Some fighting there, some discovering here, he makes a new friend, apprehends a culprit behind this case, and done.
