What happened to Yui was that her coat was scratched, but if it hit her body, it would also cause considerable damage.
The level gap may be close, but Sekhmet is a formidable foe. Thinking of this, Kirito looked away from the court and was suddenly startled.
A white-purple light ball appeared in front of me, and it was approaching me. The same white-purple light floating in the sky that I saw when Sekhmet flew over.
Immediately after witnessing its return, a ball of light fell on Kirito. From the cracked sphere, white-purple flames that burned the forest spurted out and surrounded Kirito's limbs.
"Wow haha!!"
Kirito was blown away by the impact of the strong wind and fell to the ground rolling over. The shaking must have been so strong that I felt something akin to the air being squeezed from my lungs, and my ears started ringing. The top HP bar of the three bars displayed in the upper left corner of the eye suddenly shrinks to red, indicating danger.
"ah..."
\"Kirito!!\"
\"Kirito!!\"
Sinon's voice was mixed with the ringing in his ears, and Lilan's voice echoed in his violently shaking head. Because of this, Kirito came to his senses and understood what was happening before him.
The approaching white-purple light ball burned and exploded upon impact. It's the same as the flame bullet breath fired by Lilan, and I'm afraid basically any dragon can handle it.
However, this is decisively different from what Lelan posted. A small purple icon will appear next to the "life bar", indicating that you have been poisoned, and the remaining amount of the "life bar" is decreasing minute by minute. Nothing happened until the bullet hit, so it must have been poisoned by the flaming bullet. Sekhmet appears to be a dragon with the ability to control fire and poison.
Fire contains poison. Disaster containing miasma. The black cat who can easily deal with such things is none other than Sekhmet, the goddess of destruction in Egyptian mythology who is in charge of plagues.
Although there were four people here, including himself, Sekhmet only addressed himself. It seems that he has clearly set his sights on himself.
Just as I stood up at the same time to look for the reason, Sekhmet rushed towards me as a matter of course.
However, just when the claws were about to touch him, Sekhmet's body was knocked aside. The trees that had been burned to pieces were shattered into pieces under the collision with the black giant cat.
When I turned my gaze back to the front, I saw a white wolf dragon standing in front of me, as if it had just launched a fierce attack. It seems that Lilan charged at Sekhmet and stopped his pursuit. Lilan continued to pounce on Sekhmet, pounced on him in the same way.
Thanks to his partner for following up, Kirito took out the small bottle in his pocket and drank the contents.
Although it is called a small bottle, it is a large potion, about the same size as a plastic bottle. It is the most expensive potion currently sold in tool shops. It has the effect of restoring 5,000 health points at a time and 20% of the maximum health value in 1 minute. have.
The effect was instantaneous, and Kirito's HP that had been reduced by Sekhmet's attack suddenly turned back to green.
After understanding that Sekhmet's target was still Lilan, Kirito continued to take out a blue rectangular crystal from his pocket and said the words "healing". The blue crystal shattered and disappeared together with the poison that infected Kirito. It is a detoxifying crystal that instantly cures toxic conditions.
In this game, the poisoned state cannot be cured by potions. Yui's choice is to rely on crystal items or recovery skills. If you get poisoned along with the damage, you won't be able to fully recover unless you use both types of items like you do now.
Sekhmet is arguably the most troublesome monster due to his ability to deal massive amounts of damage and inflict the Poisoned status. Kirito turned to Sekhmet, thinking that he had encountered something unbelievable.
Sekhmet and Lelan's struggle: They tore each other's bodies apart, biting each other, and destroying the trees in the forest. It's a fight between two beasts that could be seen in the real world, but since they're both currently too big to see, it ends up being a tree-cutting melee. The same is true in "SAo" and "ALo", but when Lilan and a big monster start fighting, it can't help but feel like a scene from a monster movie.
In this fierce battle for territory, Sekhmet revealed his fangs that were so sharp that you wouldn’t think they were cats, and bit into Lilan’s neck.
Lilan made a weird sound, followed by a scream, and a poisoned status icon appeared next to the "life bar". The venom is sprayed directly from its fangs. It seems Sekhmet's poison isn't just his breath.
"Lilan!!"
Just when Kirito shouted, Sekhmet stood up, pressed Lilan's body with his hands, and threw Lilan out.
With Sekhmet's roar, Lilan's huge body was thrown up and collided with the trees burned by purple flames. The trees that made up the forest were easily crushed into pieces. As Lilan collided with it with a roar, the ground was rolled up and scattered like pieces.
Moreover, by jumping into the blazing purple flames, Lilan suffered additional damage and poison. The "hp bar" has been reduced to the point where it turns yellow, and it will turn red after receiving another hit.
Sekhmet on the opposite side raised his buttocks and swayed from side to side, staring closely at Lilan who lowered her head. This is the posture of a cat when hunting. It seems they are planning to attack Lilan.
"Too clumsy!"
Just when Kirito stood up and was about to walk towards him, Sekhmet pounced on him. However, it was not Lilan who was there. There was a little boy in front of him, with silver-white hair similar to Lilan, wearing white clothes, holding a one-handed straight sword and a shield. Jupiter is the weakest in our group. His right hand holding the sword was stretched out as if raised to the sky, with the effect of red light rising around him.
The tank has several skills that can draw the enemy's attention and aggro, as well as protect party members from the enemy, essentially acting as a defensive position. Jupiter, who chose this for some reason, could certainly use such a skill.
Considering that Sekhmet's target suddenly shifted from Lilan to Jupiter, Jupiter may have used the "Hate Change" skill to lure enemies by exchanging hatred with team players.
As Sekhmet approached, Kirito immediately called out to Jupiter. No matter how much he improves his tanking skills and defenses, Jupiter can't defend himself against Sekhmet's attacks.
"Jupiter, avoid!!"
Before Kirito's voice could reach his ears, Sekhmet slammed his whole body into Jupiter. Jupiter immediately raised his shield and assumed a defensive posture, but the defensive wall created by a little boy with absolutely insufficient attributes was easily broken through, and his body was thrown away.
"ah"
Jupiter seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and the sword and shield in his hand flew up from the air and fell to the ground in less than ten seconds. Jupiter fell heavily to the ground and let out a silent scream, his health points instantly returning to zero. Jupiter remained motionless, and a blood-colored icon indicating that he could not fight appeared next to his empty health bar.
Their status value is lower than ours, so it is natural for them to be affected by Sekhmet's attack. Although he had expected it, Kirito gritted his teeth at the fact that it actually happened, and Sinon also screamed.
"Jupiter!!"
"this!!"
When Sinon went to resurrect Jupiter, Sekhmet once again ran towards Kirito with hatred. Kirito sided to avoid the rushing attack, but Sekhmet suddenly stepped on the brakes, suppressed the momentum, and turned towards Kirito. Kirito's eyes met Sekhmet's. Sekhmet's eyes are light blue, the opposite color of the fire and poison he wields.
The boss monsters in \"SA:o\" are also equipped with corresponding AI. They will attack according to certain patterns, but Sekhmet's movements are very similar to those of the boss monster, which shows how smart you are. It feels more like a large "familiar" than a boss monster.
Its appearance is exactly the same as Anubis, the black wolf dragon used in Genesis.
Maybe there is a 'tamer' somewhere, giving orders secretly. Its location should be very close to here. If Sekhmet is the "familiar", then as long as he defeats the "tamer", the battle will end.
However, no matter how much I paid attention to my surroundings, I couldn't find anything like that. Everything was quiet. Even if I tried to look for some foreign object blended into it, I couldn't find it. I don’t know if he also uses near-extreme hidden skills.
While Kirito was fumbling, Sekhmet opened his calyx and released a fire poison bomb, as if to say there was an opening. Feeling the premonition and fumbling, Kirito ran away to the side as he fired, and a fire poison bullet pierced the space where Kirito was.
Sekhmet fired another fire poison bomb at Kirito, who had recovered his posture, but Kirito moved left and right in a zigzag manner and approached Sekhmet, avoiding the oncoming fire poison bomb. The moment I entered his arms, the swords in both hands were covered with light blue light.
"Haaah!!"
Not to be outdone by Lilan and Sekhmet, Kirito roared and rushed towards Sekhmet, slashing Sekhmet's black fur-covered body six times with two swords. Every slash received a firm response, and light blue light illuminated Sekhmet and his surroundings.
The dual-wielding sword skill "Double Revelation" that attacks six times in a row.
After receiving Kirito's formal sword skills, Sekhmet screamed and his "hp bar" decreased. Perhaps Lilan's attack had an effect. Sekhmet's "life bar" was close to the top, and when Kirito's sword skills exploded, the first bar was empty and he entered the second bar.
Although they are indeed very powerful, they are not enemies they cannot defeat on their own. Realizing this, Sekhmet seemed angry at Kirito's attack. He raised his arms angrily, trying to crush Kirito.
\"Kirito, switch!\"
At this moment, a girl's voice sounded in Kirito's ears, and a figure stood between Kirito and Sekhmet. A blonde girl with platinum wolf ears and tail, holding a two-handed sword, wearing a red coat and white clothes. This is what "acquaintance" Lilan looks like after she turns into a werewolf.
It seems that while attracting Sekhmet's attention, he also transformed from his dragon form to his werewolf form. Before Kirito could be surprised, Sekhmet's evil arm swung down. At the same time, Lilan wrapped his two-handed sword with orange light and chopped it down. The giant sword he swung bounced off Sekhmet's arm, and sparks flew from Kirito's body.
Use the two-handed sword skill "Explosion" to attack with one hand and perform "paring". It’s hard work that’s unique to Lilian.
Sekhmet, whose attack was deflected, lost his balance and took a step back, widening the distance between Kirito and Lilan.
The forced stiffness after using sword skills disappeared. Now I can attack Sekhmet with one more sword skill.
At this moment, Kirito, who had anticipated this, jumped in front of Lilan and prepared to walk towards Sekhmet. Sekhmet jumped suddenly and avoided Kirito's pursuit. Kirito stopped midway and covered his eyes with his arms, watching the huge object fly into the air.
The wind stopped and when he raised his head, Kirito was speechless.
"What!?"
Sekhmet was flying in the sky in front of Kirito's sight. Huge black wings with strange purple patterns grew around Sekhmet's shoulders, and Sekhmet flapped his wings and flew up.
Although Sekhmet is called a dragon, he has no wings. This was what Kirito was worried about, but now he has come to a conclusion.
Sekhmet has wings. Since the pattern itself squirms as if alive, it's obvious that Sekhmet's wings are made of some kind of energy.
Looking down at Kirito and the others who seemed to be looking out of this world, Sekhmet rose higher and higher, and finally disappeared into the darkness that even covered the sky.
When the black cat that suddenly appeared disappeared, the forest returned to silence. Kirito looked up at the sky where Sekhmet left and whispered.
"What exactly is this?"
What exactly is that?
I felt that the black cat dragon named Sekhmet must be coming for me. Otherwise, they would not attack so continuously. Most importantly, Sekhmet acts differently from ordinary boss monsters, acting like a "familiar".
Why did that Sekhmet appear, and why did he target me?
Is it "familiar"?
Even as I integrated the information gained during the battle with Sekhmet into my mind, I never came to a conclusion. It seems that there is no point in considering this issue at this stage.
Kirito temporarily stopped thinking and looked behind him. There was a forest that was burned down during the battle with Sekhmet. In SA:o, objects on the field can also be destroyed by attacks. However, even if it is broken, it will be restored to its original state quickly with the help of the "radix system" function, so don't worry.
Kirito headed towards a certain location regardless of the burned forest. The two people there were Sinon and Jupiter, who were unable to fight after being attacked by Sekhmet.
Probably having been resurrected by Shino, Jupiter sat there motionless. Shino accompanied him, but her face was expressionless. Jupiter looked sorry. He looked like a child angrily regretting something he had done wrong. No, actually it is.
Kirito walked up to Jupiter and called out to him.
"Jupiter"
\"I'm sorry, Kirito-san.\"
This is the first sound from Jupiter. However, this content may not be what you are looking for. Kirito thought so and told Jupiter.
"Why are you apologizing?"
\"Both Kirito-nee and Shino-nee are angry with me. I'm sorry. I couldn't block his attack. I couldn't fight before the others, so Sinon-nee had to do this.\"Take care. it. ""
Jupiter nodded in disappointment. Hearing the content of this sentence, Kirito sighed and put his hand on Jupiter's shoulder. Jupiter did not look up.
"Jupiter, I do get angry, but it's not because you can't fight."
Jupiter looked up. An unexpected expression appeared on his face, as if he heard something unexpected. Kirito said looking into those blue eyes.
"Jupiter, why do you do things like changing hatred? Even Lilan is the best at fighting. You can imagine what will happen if you are targeted like this."
"The teeth"
"Jupiter, what you did is too reckless. You are not capable of fighting that thing now. You should run away or avoid it when the time comes. If you do this"
"That doesn't make you stronger."
Kirito was a little surprised at Jupiter's interruption. As if he had taken the initiative, Jupiter continued.
"I want to become stronger, I must become stronger, there is no benefit in being weak, I must become stronger, fight more enemies, defeat more bosses, become stronger. So, if I don't"
Jupiter shook his head and said similar words over and over again. Seeing this situation, Kirito couldn't help but frown.
It seems that Jupiter wants to become stronger, and he actually got to this point for this purpose. By gaining experience points by defeating powerful monsters, you will also be able to defeat bosses. Kirito has been through this process for a long time, so he knows its true nature and understands that what Jupiter is doing now is unreasonable.
Getting stronger is like climbing stairs. Through practicing within a reasonable range, he was finally able to advance to the next stage.
Jupiter is still at the stage where he needs to practice steadily, and he is not even qualified to challenge the boss monster. However, Jupiter suddenly wanted to compete with a monster like Sekhmet.
From Kirito's point of view, Jupiter is just eager to become stronger.
"Jupiter, why are you trying so hard?"
Maybe he thought so too, Sinon said proudly, while Jupiter lowered his head. However, not long after, he stood up smoothly, surprising Kirito, Sinon and Lilan.
"I learned my lesson. What I did was wrong. I promise I won't do it again.
I can still fight. You can fight alongside Kirito and his friends. I want to help Kirito and his sisters. So let's move on quickly. Let us conquer more. "
As soon as Jupiter finished speaking, he began to walk towards the forest. The will for Jupiter to become stronger does exist. It's obvious when you look into his eyes.
However, what causes this?
What drives this planet Jupiter?
What's the driving force behind Jupiter's recklessness?
Kirito couldn't come up with a good answer, so he called for Shino and Lilan and caught up with Jupiter.
It's been a full week since I started studying Jupiter. Even though the deadline for her mother's submission was approaching, Asuna's heart was still racing.
The reason, of course, is Jupiter. Jupiter started learning and receiving information a week ago, and let's just say Jupiter's growth since then has been remarkable.
Even when Asuna wasn't looking at him, Jupiter was constantly absorbing knowledge and information, and his progress was incomparable to when he first started learning. Every time Asuna showed her face, Jupiter would tell her this to make Asuna happy and tell her something to make her happy.
Asuna couldn't help but feel happy every time she saw the results.
Jupiter, criticized by his mother and the rest of Rector as a failure, was no longer that person.
I was sure she would change her mind if I showed her Jupiter, which was already grown by her mother's deadline for filing papers. If you stop criticizing yourself, you will definitely recognize Jupiter.
Moreover, this growth of Jupiter is not just his own, but what Jupiter himself desires. This is not the way my parents forced me to study and study. This was only possible because of an agreement between me and Jupiter that I was able to accomplish things that my parents could not.
One look at this and even my mother had to admit it was Lecter. I don't think Jupiter is a failure.
There was another incident that made Asuna flinch.
Recently, my father told me that the robot industry has made great progress, and exhibitions of robot industry companies from various countries will be held in the United States. Moreover, it seemed that Rector would also participate in this event, so his father asked Asuna if she would like to participate.
The event attracts robotics researchers and robotics industry companies from around the world to see the latest robots. If they could find a high-performance robot among themselves and the manufacturer to make it, they might be able to negotiate the proper form of Jupiter.
Maybe it's possible to bring Jupiter to the real world. said the father happily.
When Asuna heard this story, she felt excited.
If a robot capable of carrying Jupiter is developed, it will be possible to bring Jupiter into the real world and introduce it to everyone. If Jupiter had been like this at the time, it might have been a failure, but if Jupiter had reached its full potential, it would have been big news that shocked the world.
Asuna accepts her father's story and reports to the school that she will miss about two days of school. We immediately began preparing to leave for the United States.
I wish there was a robot that could carry Jupiter.
The night before leaving for America. Asuna goes to SA:o's house and talks to him.
The three people listening were Kirito, his male friend whom he had known since SAo, his wife and best friend Shino, and Premiere who came to escort him for some unknown reason.
I gathered these three people into the living room on the first floor of my house to chat.
"Well, is there such an event? I would also like to go, but with my current financial ability, I cannot go to the United States."
Kirito was the first to understand this story. Kirito, who considers himself an It geek, had a twinkle in his eye after hearing about the robot from Asuna. However, when he heard that the venue was the United States, his shoulders dropped in disappointment. Shino, on the other hand, was just listening quietly as he had come. When it came to the premiere, I tried to understand the reactions from both sides.
\"Yes. If there is a high-performance robot at this event, I think we can put Jupiter on it. I think we can not only give it to Jupiter, but also to Relan and Yui-chan, real body of."
"That's fun, but what are you going to do during this time? Where's school and Jupiter?"
Asuna immediately talked about school and mentioned Jupiter.
\"That's it. I want to leave Jupiter to Lilan and the others. I want Kirito and Sinon to join them. That's what I want to ask.\"
"Are we Jupiter? Is it our turn this time?"
Asuna could completely predict Kirito's reaction. During SAo, Kirito often entrusted Lilan and Yui to Asuna. Kirito seemed to think that since everything had been left to him so far, it was no surprise that he was now in charge.
"Why not just Riran and the others? I think just Riran and the others would be enough."
\"Jupiter also has feelings for Kirito-kun and Shino, and the most important thing is that if he becomes stronger or smarter, he seems to want to tell me and others more than Lilan and the others.\"
"In short, they want us to monitor Jupiter's progress."
Jupiter learns more deeply by talking to people. This doesn't seem to work against Lelan and the AI opponent, so it must be a proper human. Some may find the specs troublesome. I decided to have these two do it because it was a difficult part for Lelan and the others.
Shino understood the situation and crossed her arms.
\"If that's the case, I don't mind, but hey, Asuna, why did that girl become like this?\"
"?"
"He wasn't like this before. Why did he suddenly become stronger and smarter?"
This is completely understandable. Jupiter understood that it was important to become strong on your own, rather than taking orders from others, and he put this into action. Just like Lilan who once asked to evolve in "ALo".
"I understood for myself that that kid should become stronger and smarter. That's what I started doing myself. It was the will of Jupiter itself. First, [mhhp] meant that if he was broken, that's what he would do Himself. We're trying to fix a feature."
"Indeed, Jupiter has become more powerful and intelligent recently. Perhaps this is also mhhp's instinct."
"That's right. Jupiter is trying to use his mhhp instincts to become stronger. He's trying to become smarter. Repair his broken self."
Jupiter's current actions and words are driven by instinct. It's not like someone is forcing you to do this. When I told her my thoughts, Shino asked me a question.
\"So, Asuna, have you told Jupiter about this? I think Jupiter needs to know that you're going to be gone for a while.\"
Of course, when I found out about this, my first thought was to contact Jupiter.
However, Jupiter was studying in the online world at the time and could not contact him. However, he said that he had set a return point to his bedroom, so that if he waited here, he could see Jupiter. I think I should talk to these two before that happens.
"I'm going to tell Jupiter now that Jupiter is coming back soon. I wonder what you learned today."
Jupiter was the one who always came back and proudly said that he had gained all kinds of knowledge. For Asuna, this is what she looks forward to the most and what she always looks forward to, whether at school or at home. I'm sure I gained a lot of knowledge and information and improved today. I want to go there now, and I can't help but be filled with anticipation.
"But, Jupiter can't see you now, how are you? He must be lonely without you."
"That was the case some time ago, but that's not the case at all now. In fact, he seems to be able to concentrate better without me."
"Of course, Jupiter won't come to you these days."
Sinon said this with a complicated expression on her face. Sinon, who gets along with Kirito and Lilan, also often comes into contact with Jupiter.
And he often talks to himself and drinks tea, so he must be very sensitive to the changes in Jupiter. That's why Asuna asked Shino and Kirito to take care of Jupiter.
"In that case, that's fine. I don't know how long it will take to go to the United States this time."
Hearing Kirito's question, Asuna immediately remembered her itinerary. According to my father, if I take a flight to the United States tomorrow, I will be able to attend the event in time. It takes about a day to get back, so the trip will take about two days. When I told them this, both Kirito and Sinon nodded.
"Two days. I don't think it's a big deal so long. Or, because it's in the United States, it takes this long."
"If they could do it at Tokyo Big Sight, it would be an immediate success, but it doesn't seem like that's going to happen."
"This is probably too big an event to hold at the big Sight. I'd love to hear about it as a souvenir when you come back."
Asuna smiled bitterly at Kirito, who suddenly became awed. Having said so much, it means that Kirito must also be interested in this event. If possible, she would like to take Kirito with her, but even Asuna can't take Kirito, a complete stranger, and it would be a bad thing for Sinon. In order to teach Kirito, I had to take detailed notes at the event venue.
Just as I was contemplating some plan in my mind, the Prime Minister, who had been silent all this time, stopped me.
\"Yeah, Asuna.\"
"Hello, Prime Minister."
\"I feel like Asuna cares about Jupiter. Why does Asuna care about Jupiter so much?\"
Having said that, although Premier has been staying with Jupiter, she has not talked about the relationship between Asuna and Jupiter. Asuna doesn't have a brother-sister relationship like Rilan or Yui, and only talks about Jupiter, which must be worrying. Asuna demanded an explanation.
"I haven't told the Prime Minister yet. Jupiter and I are father and son."
\"Parents and children? Are they Jupiter Asuna's children?\"
\"That's right. That's why Jupiter calls me mother.\"
The Prime Minister tilted his head. He seemed to be saying there was something he didn't understand.
\"I heard that parents and children are related by blood. Are Jupiter and Asuna related by blood?\"
Hearing this, Asuna felt a tightness in her chest. I am not related by blood to Jupiter, and I do not yet have a physical body. The Prime Minister's views remind me of my mother's views.
Those abhorrent words showed that Jupiter was a human being.
Kirito spoke before Asuna, trying not to let his expression show.
\"Although this is not the case, Jupiter is Asuna's child. Even if there is no blood relationship, he is still a parent and a child. This is what is called adoption, do you understand?\"
"It still happens with adopted children."
\"Oh yes. By the way, Yui is also the adopted son of me and Shino, so Yui calls me daddy and Shino's mom.\"
"Is that so? I learned a lot."
said the Prime Minister, looking satisfied. This situation reminds me of Jupiter who is studying. After the quality meeting, A also changed a lot, and his expressions and emotions became richer. Premier and Jupiter can be said to be similar entities. However, Jupiter's growth rate is higher. Nothing wrong with that at all.
Just as I was thinking this, Shino showed a confused expression.
\"Hey, Asuna, is Jupiter really okay? Maybe you should take a closer look.\"
"Huh? Why?"
"Jupiter, you challenged an opponent to a fight you simply could not defeat. Yet, you appear to feel no remorse."
Asuna had already heard Shino's story. While Jupiter was accompanying Kirito and his group, he was attacked by a black cat-like monster. Perhaps because of the sudden attack, Kirito and the others were forced to struggle.
It seems that Jupiter bravely accepted the challenge, but was ultimately unable to fight. Despite this, they managed to fight off the monster, and Jupiter's actions were a testament to the courage he mustered against the unknown monster.
Regardless of the outcome, Jupiter has been able to face unknown monsters without fear. From myself.
"Okay, I may be a little reckless at times. But, this world is not a game of death, so fight, fight, incompetence, and even death." But most of all, repetition matters. You keep trying, failing, and then eventually winning. This is what Jupiter wants to do. "
"Is that what she thinks?"
"Yes. These are all Jupiter's own ideas, and I will not interfere. Moreover, he doesn't seem to be forcing himself to do this. This is also part of Jupiter's learning."
Sinon stopped talking and said, "Yeah." He didn't seem to believe it, but that might be because he didn't quite understand Jupiter's will. In the end, the only person Yui understands Jupiter's will is herself, her mother.
With full confidence in her heart, Asuna opened the window and discovered something. Jupiter's name is among the logged-in members. It seems that I am back from the online world. The location is on the second floor of the house. After Asuna confirmed it, she closed the window and said to the three of them.
"It seems Jupiter is back. I'm really embarrassed to call you three."
"I guess that means you can close up. It's okay, we're thinking about going home as soon as possible. Also, leave Jupiter to us while you're gone."
When Kirito said this, he seemed quite reliable.
According to Kirito, he is a year younger than me, but his behavior reminds me of a young man older than me. Sure enough, he who served as the leader of the Blood Pact Knights during the SAo period, the "tamer" who drove Lilan, and Yui's father seemed to have a great influence on him.
It doesn't matter if Jupiter takes care of Kirito. With this in mind, Asuna sent the three of them away.
After the three left and the house returned to normal, Asuna immediately walked to the corridor and climbed the stairs. With each step I ascend, Jupiter's presence becomes stronger. Jupiter seems to have returned to the bedroom normally.
Finally arriving at the bedroom door, Asuna knocked twice and entered the bedroom.
The interior is made of stone and wood and has the same lighting as the first floor living room. There was a bed against the wall and a simple table next to it.
Sitting on the chair alongside the table was a petite boy with silver-white hair that was very similar to his own. He was wearing a white hoodie and shorts. Although we are not related by blood, this is Jupiter, my son.
Even when Asuna walked into the room, Jupiter didn't look back. He stared intently at the table, concentrating on operating the open window and holographic keyboard. I'm sure they're exporting what they've learned. It seems that this top student is studying hard.
For a moment, Asuna felt that she shouldn't disturb Jupiter, but she still had to speak.
"Jupiter"
After a moment of shock, Jupiter turned around and said:
"Ah, Kasan. I'm back."
explain. Of course, he still had a smile on his face, proving that he had learned a lot in the online world. Asuna replied, "Welcome back," and approached him. Jupiter turned his entire body towards Asuna and was about to speak, but Asuna spoke first.
"Jupiter, thank you for your hard work today. Have you got any good news? Are you able to study?"
"Of course, I got a lot of information and discovered a lot of things."
Asuna secretly peeked at the window that appeared in Jupiter's hand. What is shown is a formula in a format I have never seen before. Due to its complexity, it seems that it can only be studied in vocational schools or prestigious universities.
"Jupiter, that is"
"I have collected a lot of mathematical formulas taught by famous American schools today, and I will solve them now."
Even at the school I'm currently attending, such a formula never existed. Maybe it could have been thought of in high school or college where Koichiro attended, but at least it was a mathematical formula that I never learned or solved. Asuna couldn't help but be surprised that Jupiter was trying to solve the problem.
\"Wow Jupiter, you can do this!?\"
\"Yes, I got everything from the Internet world. Oh, by the way, I tried all the problems that Sister Liz and Sister Leafa said they couldn't solve before, but I solved them all in about ten minutes.\" . "
One day, at the school Asuna and her friends attended, they were given a rather difficult homework. While Asuna wasn't like that, the others were confused by the question and grunted as they solved it. Asuna was still surprised that this problem was solved.
Jupiter has grown to the level of a famous college student in the United States. It has transcended my own study and learning. Asuna was surprised and moved, and put her hands on Jupiter's shoulders.
"Jupiter, you are so amazing! You have grown so much and learned so much!"
"Am I awesome? Am I awesome?"
"I'm sure this is amazing! Because the problem you're solving right now is something even I can't solve, and the problem you solved the other day is the problem we finally solved. Now that you've done it all, it's awesome !”
When he said this with unabashed excitement, Jupiter's cheeks flushed and the corners of his mouth turned up. The familiar voice "Hey hey hey" came out. This is Jupiter's habit when he is happy.
Jupiter is becoming stronger and smarter than I thought.
At this rate, when it is installed into a robot, it will become an AI that is even more intelligent than Lilan and Yui. With this feeling, Asuna finally remembered the purpose of coming here.
"Well, Jupiter. I have something to say to you."
"Yes?"
"Starting from tomorrow, I won't be able to see you for about two days. In other words, I can't come here."
"Why?"
Asuna told Jupiter as clearly as possible what she had heard from her father and what she had previously discussed with Kirito and Shino on the first floor. When it comes to the word "robot", Jupiter has a great response, and he is quite excited at the end of the story.
"My body? The body of the robot?"
"Yeah, I'm going to participate in that event. Maybe there is a robot there that can put you in. If there is such a robot, I am considering that the manufacturer will make you a body, and then you can come." The real world, You can come to the home of my real world! "
Since SAO, I have always dreamed of bringing Jupiter into the real world. I thought this would be a wish that could never be realized, but the times were gradually catching up. Jupiter may be able to get the body in the real world and live like us. At that time, imagination did not stay on Asuna and moved to Jupiter. Gradually, the corners of Jupiter's mouth rose, and the blue eyes flashed with clear light.
"It's great! I can also go to the reality of my mother!"
"Yeah! Yes, Jupiter, then you will become stronger and smarter. If you do this, I think everyone will be surprised and impressed with you."
Although he may be amazing enough now, Jupiter can still become stronger and smarter. If this is the case, when it is installed on a robot and walks into the real world, it will definitely be concerned as an ultra -high -performance artificial intelligence that everyone will recognize. Jupiter nodded dramaticly, as if he had imagined the same thing at the time.
"Okay! I want to become stronger, I want to become smarter, I want to go to the real world!"
"Yeah! I want to see you stronger and smarter. So"
As she was going to say that, Assina noticed.
Jupiter's eyes were a little strange.
Jupiter's eyes are as beautiful as the sea, but now I think Jupiter's eyes are similar to the color of the mid -deep sea. I can't help but feel that this is not the usual clear blue. Perhaps it was because the lights in the room were a bit dark. I don't know if it's because it's almost evening.
\ "Therefore, Cassan is going to leave for two days. During the period of Kasan, you can stay with your sister and Brother Kirito.
Asuna returned to God after being called, and returned here. It's time to worry about these small details, it's time to talk to Jupiter about the future. I immediately answered this question.
\ "Ah, yes, yes. When I am not, Lilan and Kirito will be here. So it doesn't matter.
"Okay, mother, I have to become stronger and smarter, please look forward to it, and let me talk about the United States!"
The smile when Jupiter said this sentence was like an innocent child. However, Jupiter's intelligence has long exceeded the intelligence of children, which is no different from students or scholars from prestigious universities.
I want to know who can criticize a loser who has reached this step. No, I can't curse anyone. No one can insult Jupiter.
Jupiter is no longer a criticism of AI.
Realizing this, Assina nodded.
"I also wish Jupiter a good luck. At the same time, I will ask you a lot of questions about robots!"
Seeing Jupiter nodded again, Asuna suddenly remembered and opened the window.
Time is exactly ten o'clock in the evening. I must sleep as soon as possible because I will travel by plane tomorrow. In addition, I need to ensure that I have not forgotten to prepare anything.
First of all, I do n’t log in to play games now, so I need to quit immediately after handling the transaction. After closing the window, Asuna looked back at Jupiter and said to him.
"So Jupiter, let's go."
"Say, mom."
Hearing the child's answer, Asuna left the bedroom. I got off the stairs and arrived in the living room, and I handled the cancellation process. I have been looking forward to what Judley came back two days later.
After watching the mother's departure, Jupiter sat back on the chair.
I have learned about the robot incident from the news website. Robot companies from all over the world gathered to show their invention. I also found that Dr. Nanairo \/seven announced on his SNS that he decided to participate in the event.
Obviously, there will be staggering robots there, and what my mother says may have a body that can bring us there, it sounds right.
What if my mother said is true? As for my sister and sister, after the robot is completed, they can ride it to the real world.
However, I haven't done this yet. Judging from Cassan's statement, my ability is still not as good as my sister and Yui. Unless I surpass them at least, I can't enter the real world. I can't get such permission.
Before the robot was developed, we must become stronger and smarter than now. Otherwise, you can't make your mother laugh. What I have to do now is to become stronger, smarter, and make my mother happy.
Thinking about it, Jupiter looked ahead. Somehow, what I see seems blurred. I think even if my vision is strangely distorted, I can still see things.
However, it is not time to worry about these things. What should I do and what should I do
\ "I want to take a bath with my mother \"
I don't know where to come from. This is not heard by the hearing sensor. Some things that resonate directly in my mind. This is exactly what my sister looks like a wolf dragon.
"What?"
Even if I look around, there seems to be no one except me. I am convinced that I am a person who is here.
\ "I want to sleep with my mother \"
There was a voice that came, and Jupiter hugged his head. "Sound" echoed in my mind. His tone was his own. Although I didn't make a sound, although I shouldn't say anything, the "sound" still echoed in my mind.
\ "I want to take a bath with my mother \"
\ "I want to sleep with my mother \"
\ "I want to be hugged by my mother \"
\ "I want my mother's warmth \"
\ "I want to eat my mother's rice \"
"Sound" does not show signs of stopping. When the noise reduction function is not used, the noise is close to the hustle and bustle of the online world. Jupiter held his head with both hands and shook his head again and again.
No, that's not the case.
That's not my wish.
This is not what the mother wants.
If it goes like this, it will be bad. It won't be good if it goes on like this.
"I want to sleep with my mother. I want to be with my mother. I want to eat the dishes made by my mother. I want to be hugged by my mother \"
As if the opposite sound, Jupiter stretched out one hand and opened the door of the Internet world. When the "sound" continued, I rolled in as if I wanted to escape. "Um?"
Shi Nai sat on the sofa and sighed deeply. The place where I live is not the usual room of 'the city of the ancestors'. This is the living room on the first floor of a house in the residential area of the ancestor.
There are many furniture around me, which can be used at any time, but I don't have it all.
The owner of this house is my best friend, Asuna. The current situation is that Asuna temporarily keeps keys and manages the house and room.
Yesterday, Assna told me that she was going to the United States to participate in a robot event, and asked me if I could take care of her home temporarily.
Not just me, Kirito also made such a request, but we all agreed and agreed to this requirement. In this way, he was resting at Asuna's house.
Jiu said while looking around.
\ "Is this Miss Yasan's home? It is a bit like Miss Aisna's home of Esin Granda." \ "
Lilan nodded on the sofa next to Shi Nai. His eyes kept moving in the house.
"Yeah, very comfortable to the house I lived in that year."
\ "However, do not use things without permission. After all, the property is Asuna. \"
When Kirito told them to be careful, Yui and Rilan responded. However, Shi Nai had to agree with the claims of Yui and Rilan.
Although Asuna said she bought it, the houses of Asuna and Jupiter only showed me a few times. There are some reasons for disappearance.
The decoration inside is not the same as the house where Asuna, Youji, and Jupiter lived in Eyen Grandte, and it didn't make me feel so strange to see the new things.
It feels like Ensona's house and her friend's house were reproduced in \ "SA: O \". If you come here, she will be very happy, and it seems like seeing something I miss. ... Although I don't think the same thing will happen to my opponent Kam.
When I thought so, Kirito, who was sitting next to me, called me.
\ "This is what I borrowed from Asuna, but we will stay here until tomorrow. \"
\ "Yes. In a sense, it is very similar to Asuna. Asuna also said that she was traveling for two days and one night. \"
"We all like each other, anyway, it is a robot event, I want to go too."
This sentence poem has been countless how many times he has heard.
Since Asuna asked him yesterday, whether he was at school or here, Kirito has always insisted on participating in the event.
Because she said so many times, the friends in the school were shocked, and Shi Nai was one of them. However, the biggest difference between Shi Nai and other friends is that she didn't understand what Kirito was talking about.
Aisa participated in the activity of the robot. At present, mechanical robots are mainly used in the industrial field, but some companies make robots are completely different. Some even create robots that look like humans, which means this.
If there is a high -performance human robot, Shi Nai hopes that its research and development can make progress as soon as possible.
Assina said she was going to find that human robot. If she could find it, she would make it into Jupiter's body.
the same. If we can create the same robots of Tonglian, then we can create the same robots that are the same as Yi Yi, STREA, and RELAN, and equip them with them. At that moment is the beginning of you who can really become a family with Yi Yi, and the beginning of the day you can see the reality with them.
They can already use Kirito \/Kirito and school friends. The machines developed by school friends called audiovisual two -way communication probes to see the real world.
However, the audiovisual two -way communication probe cannot be used. Because Ji Ji \/MOMENKI is also forced to live in the hospital, she is visiting Kaimu \/umimu, and I can only do something. They can't really feel our feelings.
A robot that looks exactly the same and can be equipped with artificial intelligence is the robot with his friends and her friends in the same location. When this incident is completed, I can really live with them, leaving all kinds of memories.
In the event where Asuna participated, I hope that a company can create robots that look like humans. Please, I hope there are something to bring them to the real world. Shi Nai's idea is probably the same as Assna.
"But this is fine."
"?"
Shi Nai looked at Yui and Rilan, and moved his eyes to the side of Tongren. Jiu and Rilan looked at me with strange expressions, but I considered this and told them my thoughts.
After the story, Kirito "ah" sounded, Jie Yi and Lilan looked at each other, showing some strange expressions on his face.
"Indeed. If we have a robot that looks like humans, we can turn it into a body of Jiyi, Lan and Streya. We can truly bring them into the real world."
"I think yes. I think it would be interesting if we all live together."
Then Yui hurried to Shi Nai. The light of the same color as Kirito was flashed in her eyes.
"It will definitely be very interesting! There are parents, me, stream, and my sister, so it will be very interesting!"
"I agree that it is what I want to spend time in the real world like you. It is really good to be with you at any time."
Li Lan agreed with Yui, and his eyes were flashing.
The real world is different from the virtual world. You cannot grow wings and fly, nor can you fight with magic or sword skills, so it seems that freedom does not work for you. Even Lilan couldn't be a werewolf.
However, they want to go to the real world. Residents in virtual worlds such as Jiyi, RELAN, STREA, and Jupiter may be able to see the beauty that they cannot understand in the real world.
Some things they feel in their own way. If she had such a thing, she wanted to ask Yui, but before she spoke, Shi Nai put her hand on Yiyi's cheek.
"Yeah, even in the real world, I am very happy to be with your family. I don't know if the day when I can live with you will come soon."
"This may not happen overnight, but one day will come that day. I think this is yes."
Kirito said with a smile.
Indeed, even if a robot is exactly the same as humans, it takes a long time to reach the level of practicality. If they are installed on it, development will become more difficult. It will be more difficult. There is no doubt that this takes several years.
Nevertheless, the day when Yui and others become a family in the real world will definitely come. Before that, there was only one thing.
Since I came here, this is what I have been looking for. Thinking of this, Shi Nai smiled at Kirito.
\ "If you need something before.
"Ah, yeah, I want to find you as soon as possible and live with you again."
Our family must gather here. However, after all, it is Assina's home, not their own home.
What they want to look for now is the basic land of Ian Grandte's 22nd floor and that house.
The location of the 22nd floor model seems to be not far from the appearance of the Old Robbus Forest and the Lestria prairie, so I look for it everywhere, but I haven't found it yet. However, the day we achieved this goal must be getting closer and closer. One day we can get together again.
Just when I thought about the situation at the time, there was a loud noise in the room. Looking back, I saw a girl with white purple micro -curly hair, wearing purple clothing highlights big breasts, and a girl with a dark blue short hair and loose clothes, and two petite girls. It is Streya and Primir.
"I'm here! I bought something."
"Nothing particularly lost. I can get everything safely."
After speaking, the two entered the room.
The two left here to four people and went to the "city of the beginning" together. They took dinner around 6 pm, but although it was 8 o'clock in the evening, they had not had dinner.
The reason is the premium. Earlier, Shi Nai and Yasna invited the Prime Minister to eat some food, but then the Prime Minister was addicted to their cooking and was no longer satisfied with the food in the hotel or shop.
Now that Poetry is going to log in, the Prime Minister will be entangled with Shi Nai for cooking. If Shi Nai can't work, it will be entangled with Asuna.
