Sword Art Online Integral Factor: Archived Reality

You know, there's not a lot of SAO:IF stories on here. So why not let me make one? That'd be real fun, wouldn't it? So, what if the MC wasn't the only Integral Factor? What if there were others? And those others, just so happened to be friends? Also Koharu is best waifu, no questions asked!
I also hope you like my cover, this is only the second one I've made so I hope you like it!

---August 1st 2022---
A brand new VRMMORPG called Sword Art Online, called SAO, made by the creator of the NerveGear, Kayaba Akihiko, has started it's closed beta test for the few lucky souls chosen to be players for the playtest. The beta test later ended during the 31st of August.

---November 6th 2022---
10,000 people have entered SAO only to realize that they are stuck inside, with the only way out is by beating all 100 of SAO's floors. It seems practically impossible to most people, with so many floors to beat it feels almost pointless trying...

But Kaito refuses to stop and will keep on going and his best friends, Otashi and Rikka, alongside his new friend, Koharu, might see Kaito as the very motivation they need to keep going.

Kaito and Koharu (And occasionally Rikka and Otashi) will make their way through perilous dangers, scary dungeons, and trembling tensions if escape is going to be an option that can even chosen for them.

I do not own SAO or any of it's characters, neither do I own images used in this story.
