Sword Art Online: Red's Path

"Son, I won't force you to be something you don't want to be" Seth patted Red's shoulder then handed him a sword.

"Your choice son, I am only doing this so that you won't hesitate if you ever encounter this kind of situation in the future"

Red took the sword from Seth and stared at the celestial dragon in front of him.

"You lowly humans! release me or else I will kill all of you and your family, you dare to even lay your hands on me!" The celestial dragon shouted.

Hancock who was invisible was standing beside Seth, she wanted to stop Red but she knew that this is for the best and chose to watch at the side.

Red held the sword and said "You are a monster that doesn't care about human life, I know that if our position were reversed you will unhesistantly kill me. I hope you can be a better person in your next life."

*Swish!*

The celestial dragon's head flew high above the air and landed in front of Red.

Seth took the sword from Red and touched his head "You did a good job. you should never hesitate to kill anyone that you think is dangerous and will backstab you if they ever had the chance."

Red closed his eyes and nodded "I understand Father."

As Red opened his eyes he realized that he was sleeping in his room.

"Why did I dreamed about my first kill? Is Father trying to tell me not to show mercy on the other players?" Red thought while still laying down on his bed.

*Knock!*Knock!* "Red are you awake already? We will be leaving for the boss raid soon." Asuna's voice could be heard outside of his room.

"I'm up Asuna, I'll be there in a minute" Red said while getting up from bed.

After equiping his armor Red then went down and ate breakfast with the others.

Alice as usual was pestering Red early in the morning "Big bro please let me join the raid" she then used hear crocodile tears skill to persuade Red.

Red sighed then looked at Alice and spoke in serious manner "Alice, this is not a game do you understand? we can't always watch over you while fighting a boss if we lose focus even for a split second it could possibly end our life. do you want me or your Liam to die just because you want to join the raid?"

Alice lowered her head then started sobbing "But, I just want to be useful to you guys that's why I wanted to help you on your raids."

Red smiled and patted Alice's head, this is his technique to calm the little girl.

"I understand Alice but you're already helping us by always making us smile and making us relax. you are the reason why we must return home early and the reason why we must strive hard to become stronger."

Alice looked at Red and asked "Really? are you telling the truth?"

Red laughed and nodded "Ofcourse, why would I even lie to you. if you join us on our raid who will scold Chris if ever we came back late again?"

Alice was enlighten hearing and stood up saying "You're right!" she then looked at Chris who was eating and said.

"Hmp! Don't hinder big bro handsome later and make him come back late or else." she then made a fist and showed it to Chris.

Chris gulped and can only nod his head "Don't worry madam Alice, I will be sure to bring your Mr. Handsome back on time."

Liam,Asuna and Red laughed seeing Alice bullying Chris and the latter couldn't do anything but to let Alice bully him.

"Okay, finish your meal and we will be on our way to the labyrinth." Red said while finishing his soup.

Once everyone was finish eating they made their way towards the entrance of the labyrinth where the other players were waiting.

"Hello Mr. Red, now that your party is here we are ready to go" Diabel said while telling his guild to start moving.

Zeke and the rest of the ALS were already inside the labyrinth and didn't wait for the others.

While they were on their way towards the boss room Kirito approached Red and asked.

"Red, can I join your group in this raid?"

This wasn't the first time Kirito will be joining Red's party because almost every boss battle he will always join in so Red immediately agreed hearing Kirito's request.

When they were nearing the boss room they saw the ALS were already there waiting for their arrival.

Zeke approached Red and said "Let's begin the raid Mr. Red, I hope you can follow the plan."

Red ignored Zeke and opened the door of the boss room and said "Be ready everyone, those who dares disobey my commands will surely suffer."

Zeke was shocked hearing this and immediately stopped Red "What's the meaning of this? we already planned everything out so you have no rights to lead this group, stand down and follow my lead."

Red glanced at Zeke and released his conqueror's haki making Zeke and his group kneel down, Red then smiled at Zeke and said.

"Make me"

Zeke and the rest of the ALS were already sweating some of their members already fainted from Red's pressure.

Zeke looked up at Red and spoke with a trembling voice "I'm sorry, I will follow your orders Mr. Red so please spare us."

Red withdrew his haki and said "Well that's good to hear, our plan will be kiting the boss and my party will be the one to battle it when it enters it's berserk state."

Zeke could only nod in agreement, Diabel smirked seeing Zeke being punished by Red he already knew from experience not to ever question Red's decision if he doesn't want to experience any suffering.

The group then walked inside the boss room to continue their raid.
