I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes

"Okay, let's go then." Argo nodded, and then walked out of the hotel door first.

“How much does the news cost?”

"Including taking you there, 2w Cole."

Then the next moment, Argo received a transaction prompt.

Gil's net worth at this time was quite substantial. It could be said that all the major guilds in Aincrad combined might not have as much wealth as Gil's.

Alas, what can the rich do?

Gil glanced at his Cole number, looked at the eight zeros following the six, and clicked his tongue.

Alas, the golden rate is A, so easy to use!

……

Then, Argo took Gil to the second floor.

The two climbed up the rock wall of the flat-topped mountain covered with trees on the vast second-floor boundary, got into a small cave, and slid down the underground water flow like a water slide.

The battle probably took place three times, but to Jill, that level should be considered a joke. Can a slap in the face of a monster be called a battle?

Judging from the position of the global map on the second level, Gill and the others have probably arrived at the top of the highest rocky mountain located at the southern end of the second level.

Looking around, there was a small space surrounded by rock walls, a spring, a tree, and just that - a hut.

"...Is this here?" Gil asked, looking at the lonely hut in front of him.

Argo nodded and walked to the hut without hesitation.

Then he pushed open the door that appeared in front of him.

There are several pieces of furniture in the house, and a semi-old male NPC with strong muscles, a very smooth bald head, and a thick beard around his mouth.He has a golden question mark icon above his head.

This is the common mission start mark in almost all RPG games.

Gil asked Argo with her eyes, and she nodded again.

"That person is the NPC who teaches ExtraSkill Taijutsu. That's the end of the information I provided. It's up to you, Gil-chan, whether you want to accept this mission or not."

Without thinking, Gil stepped into the hut and came to the uncle who was sitting in meditation.

The uncle, who was wearing a tattered Taoist uniform, looked at Jill and asked:

"Are you someone who wants to get started?"

"……Yes."

"This practice is very long and dangerous, isn't it?"

"Exactly what I want!"

After the brief Q&A, the "?" mark on the uncle's head changed to "!", and the mission acceptance logo appeared in the field of vision.

At this point, Jill finally understood the meaning of Argo's words not to resent her...

Chapter 25 You know too much (kind smile)

The uncle whose title was changed to Master took Jill outside the hut and in front of a huge rock at one end of the courtyard surrounded by rock walls.

The uncle knocked on the rock that was two meters high and one and a half meters wide. He stroked his beard with his left hand and said: "You have only one practice. That is to use your fists to crack this rock. As long as it can be completed, I will All my skills are taught to you."

Jill tapped the huge rock gently.

After Jill got used to the game, she could tell how durable the object was by feeling it.What came back from Gil's hand was that it was "almost astonishingly hard to the point of becoming an immortal object".

Gil: "...Only to this extent, why would Argo say that?"

"You are not allowed to come down the mountain until you break this rock. You must make this oath."

The uncle who said this suddenly took out a strange object from his Taoist uniform.

The left hand holds an inkstone.

In the right hand is a thick and gorgeous pen.

A bad premonition, such words appeared in Jill's head like three-dimensional characters, and Jill instantly felt a premonition that her self-esteem was seriously damaged.

Subconsciously, he wanted to cancel the mission, but the uncle was still one step ahead of Jill, and the uncle flashed his right hand at a gorgeous speed.

The pen tip is inserted into the inkstone and soaked with full ink——

Then, brush, brush, brush!The ink exploded across Jill's face.

At this moment, Gil finally understood the secret of Argo's beard.

She single-handedly discovered this uncle during the closed beta period and accepted the mission.

After accepting this mission, I was told to destroy rocks similar to this, and at the same time, my face was painted randomly.That's the one - three beards on the left and right.

Freed from the attack of the brush, Gil quickly wiped his face with both hands.

However, the ink seems to be quick-drying and cannot be wiped off no matter how hard you wipe it with your hands, so there are a lot of strange patterns on Jill's face.

The uncle looked at Jill, nodded, and said another shocking line, "This [proof] cannot be eliminated until you break this rock and complete your practice. I believe you can do it, My disciple."

Then, the uncle slowly returned to the hut and disappeared deep into the door.

Jill: "..."

He looked at Argo, "Argo, you accepted this task during the closed beta period...and then gave up, right? So, there is no choice but to keep this beard until the day when the closed beta is completed.

As a result, the role of the informant [mouse] was created. In order to continue doing this job in this official server, you can only continue to dress like this... I guess. "

This was the only way to explain the look on Argo's face.

"You're right. You guessed it right away, just like Kirito." Argo nodded, "I met Kirito Amu more than a year ago, and today I have the honor to meet Gil Amu again. It's great." Woolen cloth……"

Then, Argo took a closer look at the makeup on Jill's face.

After Jill's face was filled with ink, she looked like a tabby cat.

"Pfft... Hahahahahahahahahaha..." Argo couldn't hold back, and finally laughed out loud.

Maybe it’s because Jill’s ink-stained face is really funny.

Gil thought for a moment, then nodded, as if he had decided something, and pulled out the "Inscriber" and pointed it at Argo, "You know too much."

Argo waved his hands quickly, wanting to explain, "Wait a minute...I..."

Jill: "The argument is invalid, the thief will be killed immediately!"

"Help ah ah ah ah!"

……

Later, Gil spent a day breaking the stone and learned the ExtraSkill called Taijutsu.

Gil smacked his lips. He didn't really blame Argo. After all, he was using his own personality to get things done.

So you can’t blame others, right?It's all just Jill's own way.

Having said that, there was actually no substantial loss to Jill, and the ink marks on her face disappeared after completing the mission.

It's just that if people see her like that, it will always be unpleasant.

"No wonder Argo said not to resent her before he died~" Jill nodded understandingly.

"I'm not dead yet!" Argo suddenly appeared next to Gil, stretched out his hand and grabbed Gil's face fiercely, "You are really cruel, little devil!"

"...This is not a safe area like a town." Gil reminded.

"When will the wealthy people come to buy news again?" So Argo quickly changed the topic.

"There is indeed news that I want to buy from you." Gil nodded, "Do you know about Kirito's sword called Elucidator? If you want to forge a sword with properties similar to that one, you need the best. Where are the materials?”

"This..."

"Send the information to Kirito, and I'll pay the money." Gil said.

"Do you really have no shortage of thigh pendants, rich man?" Argo asked.

"...I don't need that kind of thing."

"You really don't think about it?"

"No, it's really not necessary."

……

Finally, Jill returned home.

"...It's terrible..." Jill lay on the bed with a comfortable look on her face, "In this cold world, this is the only bed that can give me some warmth."

After all, he had been smashing rocks all day and night without rest, so it was normal for him to be mentally exhausted.

"However, this is not bad..." Gil scrolled through the menu and looked at the ExtraSkill with a satisfied smile on his face.

Although this empty-handed attack skill called [Taijutsu] is not yet proficient at all, judging from Jill's current progress in the frontline strategy, it is estimated that the proficiency of this skill will not be improved very slowly.

However, although this skill can be used as a trump card, there are not many places where it can be used on Gill.

First, because Jill possesses a unique skill "Drawing Sword Technique", in which the attacks are mainly based on ultra-high speed and powerful single attack power.

Drawing the Sword Technique is a skill that appears after Gil's proficiency in the sword skill is fully developed and his agility reaches the highest level among existing players.

There should be about ten of this special unique skill in SAO.

For example, Heathcliff, the leader of the Blood Alliance Knights, also possesses a unique skill that combines offense and defense, called "Holy Sword". This skill is also very powerful.

Jill felt that it would be difficult to break through Heathcliff's defense without using the sword-drawing technique. A large part of the reason was because of this unique skill called "Holy Sword".

Chapter 26 As long as you don’t regret it

Jill tossed and turned, thinking that she had nothing to do, so she simply lay on the bed and slept.

Anyway, it’s not a bad thing to take a day off once in a while…

Gil thought so and slowly closed his eyes.

……

At this moment, the world of Little Garden.
