Sword Art Online (9)
Sword Art Online (9)
What he used was one of the many abilities of the Six Wings.
It was an ability specialized in detection; as long as he had enough mana, he could pinpoint the exact location even if they were on the other side of the globe.
The method of use is simple.
It's to strongly desire the target you want to find.
Knowing the other person's face and name made it much easier to find them.
'But I know both.'
Thanks to that, finding them was fast.
It only took about 5 minutes to scour the entire country of Japan.
Still, now that I've found the location, things have become easier.
'Ha, this is why I hated cheats.'
Using cheats is so broken that things get solved too easily.
That's why I tried to do things with my own power as much as possible in this world... but it seems that was difficult.
'Since it's come to this, it can't be helped. Let's do my best.'
It's already used, so it can't be helped.
So, let's do my best for Asada Shino.
'I know the location, the problem is the timing.'
Seojun recalled.
Judging by the outfit Asada Shino was wearing when she encountered the post office robber in the anime, it was likely spring or autumn.
'It was too thick for summer, and too thin for winter.'
Since I'm not sure which one it is, I'll keep an eye on her for now.
Thinking that, Seojun contacted his attendants and ordered them to assign a surveillance agent to her.
Of course, Seojun also used his own abilities to ensure he could help her at any time.
With this, I'm relieved for now.
"Long time no see, Jun."
"Long time no see, Jun-oppa."
"Nice to see you."
Seojun greeted Kirito and Suguha.
Today was the day he had scheduled to hang out with the two sisters.
You have to consistently build up favorability like this to make things easier in the future.
"So, what are we doing today?"
"We're going to the arcade."
"Eeeh, Onee-chan, the arcade again?"
Suguha made a face at Kirito's answer.
It's been a while since the three of us started meeting up like this, but 6 or 7 times out of 10, we always stopped by the arcade.
It was because Kirito's tastes were skewed in that direction.
On the other hand, since Suguha started hanging out with Seojun, she was able to enjoy games as a hobby, unlike in the original work, but she wasn't at the level of being fanatically obsessed like Kirito.
That was the difference that resulted from that.
"We went to the arcade last time, so this time, let's go where Suguha wants."
"As expected, there's no one like Jun-oppa!"
"Tch, fine, let's do that."
Kirito clicked her tongue, and Suguha was genuinely happy.
Like that, they went around to various places of Suguha's choosing. The most impressive place among them was the aquarium.
'So Japanese aquariums are like this.'
I've been to one in reality, but that was in Korea.
This is my first time at a Japanese aquarium. It definitely had a different flavor compared to Korea.
"Wow, look at that. A mermaid!"
Suguha exclaimed in admiration and pointed in one direction.
There, inside a giant water tank, was a woman dressed as a mermaid swimming with the fish.
It was an aquarium employee.
"Isn't she out of breath?"
Kirito muttered.
At that, Suguha glared at her.
"Onee-chan, you really have no romance. How are you going to get a boyfriend like that?"
"What? Sugu, worry about yourself~!"
The two sisters bickered.
It was then that Seojun was watching them with a satisfied smile.
The two turned to look at Seojun and asked.
"Jun, who do you think will get a boyfriend first between us?"
"Oppa, answer us!"
It's a difficult question.
However, Seojun handled it skillfully.
"Well, I wonder. Maybe you both might get one at the same time?"
"At the same time?"
"What does that mean...?"
At Seojun's answer, the two looked puzzled.
However, when Seojun took their hands, they soon realized what he meant and their eyes widened.
But there was no sign of dislike.
It was all thanks to the Incubus trait.
'I've been exposing them to the Incubus trait for years right beside them, so it's only natural they have no resistance.'
Thanks to the Incubus trait, they had also long harbored romantic feelings for Seojun.
No, beyond romantic feelings, you could say they are now completely in love.
That is why they could act so boldly like this.
"Ugh..."
"Haa..."
The two blushed.
Seojun gently took them and led them.
Things were ripening.
'But it's not time to pluck the fruit yet.'
These two, a bit later.
So, I need to pluck the fruit after creating an environment where Asuna, Yuuki, and Aiko can accept it.
'Still, it's about time to bring it up.'
I don't know about Yuuki or Aiko.
Asuna had already started suspecting that he might have other close women.
Well, even so, it's just suspicion for now.
Even if I get caught, we haven't had a deep relationship yet, so it would serve as an excuse.
Besides, it's clear that in the end, Asuna will accept it too.
'At least I have to finish it before Sword Art Online starts.'
The reason is simple.
A virginity, that is, the first experience, shouldn't it be done in reality, not in the game?
'I'm looking forward to it.'
Seojun laughed inwardly.
His heart pounded at the fact that there wasn't much time left until he would sleep with the heroines.
The middle school entrance ceremony was over.
Is it fate determined by the heavens?
Seojun and Asuna were assigned to the same class, and even to seats next to each other.
"Ehehe, Jun-gun. We're in the same class. This is so great."
"Yeah, it's good."
"Is this fate?"
"Yeah, something like this would be fate."
Asuna smiled bashfully.
Seojun also smiled back and nodded.
A pink aura formed around the two.
The classmates in the same class immediately realized that the relationship between the two was unusual.
The male students who felt attracted to Asuna's appearance swallowed their tears after seeing Seojun's superior looks.
Anyway, like that.
The first day of school went smoothly.
Ding-dong-dang-dong.
Before he knew it, it was time to go home.
Maybe because it was the entrance ceremony, time flew by fast.
Seojun and Asuna packed their bags and left the classroom.
"I guess there's nothing different just because it's middle school."
"Definitely, there wasn't anything special."
The two mixed in with other students and left the building.
It wasn't just the first years, there were second and third years too.
'Huh?'
Seojun, who was talking to Asuna, paused.
His gaze turned in one direction. There, a female student was walking with a male student.
Seojun felt a sense of familiarity with that face.
As if he had seen them somewhere.
'...Ah!! I remembered!!'
Those two were definitely 'Shigemura Yuna' and 'Nochizawa Eiji' who appeared in the Sword Art Online movie, <Ordinal Scale>.
'I didn't see wrong.'
It was definitely them.
But why at this middle school?
'No, it's not strange.'
They are definitely characters from the movie.
But they are also characters officially incorporated into the canon by the original author.
That means it's not strange for them to be here.
"Ha, haha."
Seojun let out a dry laugh.
To think I'd meet unexpected people here.
It felt fresh.
But on the other hand, he thought.
'I want her.'
Seojun's eyes lit up.
Shigemura Yuna had an appearance that would look like a beautiful girl even to his eyes, having watched Asuna for a long time.
That's why he wanted her.
'...The punk next to her is the problem.'
He looked at Eiji next to Yuna.
The guy had been childhood friends with Yuna since kindergarten, and later, they were separated when she went to a girls' high school. But since both liked games, they continued to meet in games and maintained their relationship even after their schools were separated.
Then one day, Eiji recommended SAO, which was about to be officially released, to Yuna, and although he didn't have high expectations, Yuna readily agreed, so the two bought SAO and enjoyed the game together.
Well, after that, naturally, they get trapped in a death game.
Feeling responsible for the fact that Yuna got dragged into it because of him, Eiji made blood-sweating efforts to send her back to the original world, and later even joined the Blood Oath Knights and was active.
This is Eiji's story up to here.
And the guy was definitely harboring a crush on Yuna.
'But Yuna isn't.'
To be precise, there was no description.
However, looking at the attitude she showed towards Eiji throughout the work, one could tell she perceived him as a close friend of the opposite sex, or a younger brother who needed to be taken care of.
That means.
'There's room for me to wedge in.'
It's a sad fact for Eiji, but Seojun had already made up his mind to include her in his harem.
No, there's nothing to be sorry about.
'Anyway, if I don't intervene, she dies.'
In the original work, she eventually dies in Sword Art Online.
However, this is the story when he doesn't intervene.
Since I've marked her as a heroine, no matter what happens, I will save her and make her part of my harem.
'I'm lucky we're in the same middle school.'
2 years from now.
Seojun vowed to himself that he would finish the conquest before she went up to high school.
And Asuna, who was watching that scene from the side, narrowed her brows.
Her gaze went in the direction Seojun was looking. Soon, Yuna's figure entered Asuna's eyes.
"Uuu!"
Asuna puffed out her cheeks.
To think he's looking elsewhere even though she and the Konno sisters are here!
However, she already knew.
That there were other close women to Seojun besides them, and that they could become new girlfriends at any moment.
Asuna didn't like that.
'Sigh, the person who fell in love first is the loser.'
Asuna shook her head.
But she also knew.
That no matter how many women Seojun adds, she was already so deeply in love with him that she couldn't escape.
She just hoped that Seojun would continue to love her in the future.
'He'll introduce the other girls someday, right?'
If possible, I hope they are people who get along well with us.
Since I'm going to be by Seojun's side anyway, it would be fun to be with people who get along well.
