Even if death was on their shoulders, they still have the time to goof off.
This game was supposed to be for fun, for shits and giggles, for an escape from the real world but then, they were trapped inside this game.
Where they could die in a single mistake.
This death game that killed thousands of players, this is SAO.
Sword Art Online.
A game that was released months ago that flooded the whole internet for its massive success. She was a beta-player for the game and she really did enjoyed it.
