Chapter 17

After I entered the game I decide against changing my appearance and left the town of beginnings and checked to see if my system works here and it does but it seems to have attached itself to the User interface so right now i could access what I could normally so I went to the store and bought an add on for my system that would allow me to directly edit anything about my skills or if I really wanted to make a skill.

That add on however took all my store points so I went over to the sao skill screen to see that I have a majority of my weapon using skills and some non combat skills like meditation. After I finished looking at my interface I noticed a lot of people have left so I went out to hunt some monsters to level up here and when I killed my 5th frenzy boar I got an alert from my system.

[Quest issued: Hunt 21 Frenzy boars

Reward: 5 system store points

currently: 5/21]

I smirk and go off to kill 16 more and level up and I keep going until I reached level 2 almost to level 3 when I was teleported back to town and you know how it goes. After it was done I smirk as my eyes catch sight of Kirito as I wait until he leaves the town and start following him or more specifically my clone does as apparently my system was able to mess with the cardinal system to add it as a unique skill which was nice and it was called body double.

I then realized that I had more than 1 unique skill as I began to freak out my system calmed me down by telling me that no one could see the other unique skills I have. I also came to another realization when I took a closer look at their levels only to see that they have the same level as they did in real life which makes me even more op but it's not like if I didn't have these skills I would suddenly be super weak as I would still be able to change my stats however I want.

it was night before I knew it so I decided to check if I could possibly open a portal and it sorta worked as I was able to go in but I couldn't touch anything so I kept walking around then I saw the permanent portal I had made in the palace and looked in it to see time had stopped and I could only walk in a small area around it so I sighed and went back to the palace to sleep until it was day in sao then went back.

after I got back I got the same quest again so I assumed it was a daily quest and continued until I got minimal xp and went to find stronger mobs but realized all of them were weaker than me. I went to tolbana town to upgrade my gear again when I passed by 2 players and was surprised at their conversation.

Player 1:" isn't that guy the one who only hunts frenzy boars?"

Player 2:" you mean the boar slayer? *looks at me* yeah that's him"

that's all I managed to hear as they walked off which made me sigh as am glad I hide my face with a cloak and they only recognized me due to my pitch black katana. I also was able to use my system starting equipment which was nice and I also got back a lot of my store points by now and after I upgraded my gear again I noticed that people were gathering for the meeting to discuss strategies for the floor boss fight so I decided to join in and sat in between Kirito and Asuna and like I expected I became a party member with them and left after telling them I'll meet them when we leave.

I just hung out in the inn I was staying at until we left for the boss fight and while we made our way over I used the new add on to make a drawing skill and drew a picture of koneko from memory and we arrived shortly after I finished drawing it. When we reached the boss room we were given a couple of minutes to rest before the fight so I went to a empty corner and sat down while I looked at the drawing that looked almost like a photo and while I looked at it I didn't notice someone sit beside me or more specifically 2 people did.

Kirito:" you draw that?"

"yeah"

Kirito:"someone from sao?"

Asuna:"..."

"no, she's waiting for me outside of here....." I felt tears roll down my face as I take a deep breath to calm down before I put it away and talked with both of them until it was time for the fight where everything was the same up until diavel went for the last hit and before he was hit I ran and blocked it which blew me backwards but we both lived and after he was healed I watched the fight and it ended the same way as I didn't want the item.

After I arrived on the next floor I immediately sent a clone to find Kirito and follow him while I continued my daily quest that changed to this floors mobs and raised my level as high as it could go and this continued until the day when the moonlit black cats entered a trap room as I swapped places with my clone to watch and intervene at the right time.

Once that chest was opened I appeared and helped them and one by one I got them out of the room by one of my unique skills and when it was just me and Kirito I grabbed him.

"I only have one last use of my skill and am getting you out.....I don't know if I will make it but please take these" I handed him the picture and a ring with a unique description, "you will know how to use this later now go" I used the skill as he tried to say something but he disappeared before he could.

"sigh, time to give him that same push he had in the original story" I make a clone and use my unique skill which would allow me to fake my death one time.

<2 hour's later>

The room opened again and they came back in with more people only to see 'me' take down the last mob as my hp hit zero and I disappeared in to motes of light leaving behind an audio crystal.

'this is for the best.....you'll see'
