Y/n L/n had a simple plan for Aincrad: stay solo, move fast, and get out alive. As a top-tier beta tester known as the "Jade Cutter," he knew the mechanics better than anyone.
Then he ran into Koharu.
She was way out of her league, but she had a kind of hope that Y/n had long since traded for efficiency. What started as a temporary carry turned into a years-long partnership, moving from the chaos of the front lines to a quiet cabin on the 22nd floor.
But in a game where death is permanent, being the "Unbroken Blade" only gets you so far. Y/n is starting to realize that while his skills can clear the floors, they might not be enough to keep Koharu safe. He's spent his whole life being the best, but now he's playing for something more than a high score. If they finally reach the end, will they both be there to see the sunset together again?
After they escape the death game however, another challenge presents itself. Meeting up in the real world turns out to be much more difficult than the pair had anticipated. In a reality governed by family legacies and social status rather than sword skills and status points, can Y/n break through the walls of his own prison to find the girl he promised never to leave-or was their life together just a beautiful ghost of their past?
