Sword Art Infinity

I prepare a sword skill! "Ready!"

I unleash my sword skill as well, leaping into the air with a devastating attack aimed at Illfang's head! ()

I use my sword skill, landing a ten or so hit combo on Illfang, and finally one final strike, hitting Illfang with a critical strike.

With the three person combination attacks, illfang is easily ripped apart and defeated!

I fall to the floor, grasping my arm and breathing heavily. We...Did it...

The entire group erupts into a roar of cheers! And all three of us recieve a last attack bonus notification.

"Eclipse Coat..." Ah... ()

I then check out the last attack bonus reward I got. "Hmm... Lord's Mail? That sounds like a useful armor set." ()

I got... a cape! "I got this cool cape thing! Its blue and stuff!"

I take a health potion before I forget and put myself in danger...

The guy from the theater steps forward from the crowd.

D-Diabel could have been killed! YOU THREE WERE BETA TESTERS, WEREN'T YOU!! YOU KNEW THE BOSS'S PATTERNS!

I stare at him in disbelief as some of the group begins taking his side.

Y...You cheated! You were beta testers! ... You're worse than cheaters! You're...Beaters!

()

"... Seriously?"

I then approach him at a calm pace. As I'm doing so, I look through my inventory and equip the armor set I just got. Let's just say it's quite the considerable upgrade from what I was wearing. "Every single one of us just saved his life. We saved -your- life too."

I then stop in front of him. "Because of us, no one died. It was his decision to rush ahead and alone before assessing the situation. Furthermore... Your 'name' for us is ludicrous. And if you have such a problem with us, you can settle it right here and now. With me." ()

...

I stand up, equip my new armor and put my hands on both CP and Karasu's shoulders. No, nooo...You're wrong. We're far above beaters...We are superior to that title.

We're Master beaters! (...)

"Yeah! Master Beaters! I beat myself everyday!"

...I just realised what I said. Good thing SIlica is too innocent to understand this?

"... Alex, CP. Kinda don't need your help with this."

"... Did you seriously just...?" ()

"... Please don't say things like that anymore." ()

With that, I settle my gaze on Kibaou once more. "For the record, I've done nothing but help a beginner to the game ever since things went horribly wrong...."

I then begin to calmly dig through the menus once more. I issue a challenge to a duel to Kibaou. "If you accept this duel, we will fight until the system restricts us from doing anymore damage to the other. If I win, you never raise another complaint against the Beta Testers. If you refuse the duel, then your words have no merit." ()

Sachi is too embarrassed at that accidental innuendo to even say anything. (...)

... What? Too strong? (...)

Kibaou stares at you in shocked silence, contemplating his next move.

... F-Fine, you win this time! ... But when I get better, I'll show you! Beater! ()

"S...Sorry, Silica... I promise I wont... But Alex said it first!"

"... You don't even understand what you just said, do you?" ()

"I don't care who said it first!" ()

I roll my eyes. "Refer to me as a Paladin if you're going with a title, dumbass.... Oh, and yes. I get to insult you now because you're a coward that refused the duel." I respond with a smile plain on my face. ()

... Well, he called us beaters so I was being cool and making our title superior to that with the addition of "master"! Master beaters! (...)

Angrily gritting his teeth, Kibaou teleports away to Town of beginnings. ()

"Y...Yes Ma'am!"

"Stop saying that! It's... Sounds like a euphemism for masturbater" ()

"Good!" ()

I then turn to Sachi, calmly walking over to her! ()

Mastur-whater? -Well, you can tell me another time. I head for the exit. I think we should part ways for now. ()

We did it! ()

"you did great out there, Silica!"

"Ah, hold on a moment!" Asuna catches up to you before you leave. "How did you learn my name?" ()

"You really think so?" ()

"Yeah! Told you we could do it." ()

"I know so, Silica!"

Pat pat pat

I smile Do you notice anything below your own health bar? ()

Now I guess... ... 99 more floors, huh? ()

Asuna looks closely. "... Eh? I see another health bar." She reads the name! ()

"... Don't treat me like a kid." ()

"Yeah... It's a long way to go. But with each floor we progress to, more options of getting powerful open up." ()

"Hehe, sorry, your just too cute, Silica"

I stop petting her

I grin, giving a nod. What's it say? ()

Maybe we can find my friends, too! ()
