Synopsis: the Student Council President is a Boss

　　Many media will definitely repeatedly investigate Kiritani Kazuko's family background and explore the relationship between the other party and Kayaba Akihiko, like an illegitimate daughter.

　　Fortunately, Kayaba Akihiko, who is a top technician, completed a series of matters secretly, saving Kazuko Kiritani a lot of trouble.

　　"Thank you."

　　Kazuko Kiritani took the game helmet handed by Rinko Kashiro and thanked her.

　　This reaction made Koujiro Rinko show a helpless smile.

　　"Miss Kiritani Kazuko, as the major shareholder of ARGUS, you have great power and can even decide the future development direction of the company, and I am only your spokesperson, which is equivalent to your subordinate, so you don't need to be so polite."

　　"Having said that, you also know the real reason why I got these shares, why don't you use honorifics on me? It feels a little uncomfortable."

　　Kiritani Kazuko scratched her cheeks in trouble, but she was not overly happy because of the power at her hand.

　　She quickly turned her attention elsewhere.

　　"Has Kayaba Akihiko completely abandoned his plan?"

　　"It's not complete. He strongly requested that the death penalty of Sword Art Online be increased. ARGUS finally decided that once the player dies during the game, there will be a penalty of lowering the level."

　　"Ah this..."

　　Tonggu Kazuko was stunned.

　　As a seasoned gamer, she knows exactly what that means.

　　In the process of participating in the beta test of Sword Art Online, Kazuko Kiritani also experienced the difficulty of leveling and the difficulty of monsters. For the novice period, let’s put it aside. If the level is a little higher, with this punishment, one death may mean ten Several days or even dozens of days of hard work were in vain.

　　Would ARGUS agree to such a request?Aren't you afraid that the players will riot?

　　"Because Kayaba is the biggest contributor to the company's step-by-step from obscurity to the present, the management respects his wishes, which is probably why he was able to leave such a dangerous microwave emitting device in the game helmet in the first place. The reason."

　　Koujiro Rinko didn't dislike such company management, smiled and continued.

　　"The authenticity of virtual games is very high. Perhaps under such severe death punishment, Sword Art Online will become an unforgettable game in the future."

･･･････････････････････････････

　　"With a title like the first virtual game, it's not destined to be forgotten."

　　Kazuko Kiritani was holding the game helmet, feeling a little emotional.

　　If he hadn't joined the Ten Thousand Realms Guild, and without the intervention of the president, Sword Art Online would have become famous in the future.

　　It's just that it is not the positive reputation of "the first virtual game", but the negative news such as "death game", and the development of virtual games should also be greatly affected by this.

　　"Can I ask a little question?"

　　When Kiritani Kazuko was wandering outside, Koujiro Rinko's question brought her back to her senses.

　　"Of course, please."

　　"Did Sugo Nobuyuki provoke you?"

　　"Well, I don't seem to have heard the name before."

0 ......................

　　"Is that so..."

　　Koujiro Rinko fell into a thoughtful silence, which made Kazuko Kiritani curious.

　　"Did something happen?"

　　"Nobuyuki Sugo, I, and Akihiko Kayaba once went to the same school, so we can be regarded as classmates. After the previous incident, Kayaba suddenly used almost all the contacts he had and sent Sugo to prison, unable to do so. kind of bail."

　　Kiritani Kazuko naturally knew what the "previous events" in Koujiro Rinko's mouth were referring to.

　　It should be that the president appeared and signed a contract with Kayaba Akihiko.

　　Therefore, the other party will suddenly attack the former classmates, which may also be the request of the president.

　　Although the specific situation is not clear, Kiritani Kazuko already has a very high trust in Shirogane Yukin.

　　"I think that Sugo Nobuyuki shouldn't be a good person, right?"

　　"Indeed. As an employee of RECT Manufacturing, he has secretly engaged in many illegal acts, including malicious business competition, suppressing opponents, and making personal threats. If not, he would not have been imprisoned so easily."

　　There was something else that Rinko Koujiro didn't say.

　　This is just the beginning, Kayaba Akihiko obviously not only wants Nobuyuki Sugo to be imprisoned, but also wants to put him to death.

　　Most likely it was the order of the president who made Kayaba Akihiko give everything.

　　Since it has nothing to do with Kiritani Kazuko, Koujiro Rinko stopped talking.

　　She is just gossiping now, and has no sympathy for Nobuyuki Sugo.

　　As Kamidai Rinko said before, the other party is not a good person.Nine.

Chapter 131

　　RECT, a large-scale electronic appliance manufacturer, is also an industry giant in the field of operation.

　　However, as its CEO Akzozo Yuuki has been in a very bad state recently.

　　Today, although Sword Art Online has not officially operated, there are countless rumors, news and gossip about virtual games.

　　It's a hot topic without a doubt.

　　If Sword Art Online is a game in the normal sense, even if it is a product operated by a company not related to RECT, Yuki Akizō will be happy.

　　The carriers of ordinary games are mobile phones, computers and consoles, and these things are all within the scope of RECT's business. If a popular game appears, it can drive the sales of related electronic products to a certain extent, and RECT will also benefit.

　　However, Sword Art Online is a virtual game.

　　It does not require a traditional carrier, just wear a virtual helmet.

　　It is a pity that RECT failed to become a partner of ARGUS, which developed Sword Art Online and virtual game helmets.

　　As a visionary businessman, Yuuki Shozo doesn't think it's a trivial matter.

　　Virtual games are very attractive to people and have the ability to replace most conventional games. Once that happens, sales of electronic products will naturally decline.

　　RECT, a manufacturer of electronic products but not a manufacturer of gaming helmets, will be impacted by this trend of the times.

　　If you are not careful, you may fall into the abyss.

　　In this situation, which was already unfavorable to the company, Nobuyuki Sugo, who was trained as a competent employee by Akira Yuki, was also imprisoned, making the company's situation even worse.

　　Either in terms of business or reputation.

　　Nobuyuki Sugo was not framed, he was indeed a criminal, and the evidence was solid and irrefutable.

　　The so-called malicious business competition has nothing to do with RECT itself. It is entirely because Nobuyuki Sugo is secretly cultivating his own power, and even constantly stealing RECT's technology.

　　Yuuki Aksan only now understands that the other party is a white-eyed wolf who can't raise fat.

　　The development dilemma encountered by the company itself, as well as his unknown knowledge, made Yuuki Akzo fall into a very decadent state.

　　Moreover, Yuki Akira vaguely heard that the person who exposed Nobuyuki Sugo's face was someone from the ARGUS company.

　　Is this a mere coincidence, or is it ARGUS's horn of attack on its own RECT?

　　The appearance of Sword Art Online has already changed the status of two companies with similar strengths.

　　Now, Yuki Akizō's RECT company is the underdog.

　　What will happen in the future?

　　The company was annexed, and power was seized, or was it directly eliminated by ARGUS as an enemy?

　　Thinking about it, Akira Yuuki couldn't help clenching his fists.

　　However, when he saw the figure opening the door, the hesitant middle-aged man quickly put on a dignified yet gentle expression.

　　"School is over, Asuna."

　　"Yes."

　　The girl with long chestnut hair, Asuna Yuuki nodded in response to her father's words, showing maturity that did not match her age.

　　In fact, this is more of a deadness than maturity.

　　As the eldest young lady of the Yuki family, she received an elite education since childhood and lived a life arranged by her parents, she just mechanically fulfilled their expectations.

　　The maturity brought about by this kind of education is ultimately different from the natural maturity brought about by the tempering of time or world events.

　　Yuuki Akzo could see the difference between the two, but he never stopped, and even deliberately cooperated with his wife's education method.

　　However, now, with his company's future uncertain, Yuuki Aksan is more and more aware of his incompetence because of his daughter's performance.

　　As a father, I didn't bring back childhood memories to my daughter that could smile...

　　Originally, Akira Yuki hoped that his daughter could inherit part of the family business as much as possible and continue to run the RECT company.

　　Even if you can't be a strong woman to carry the burden, you should at least be in charge of a part of the company's business.

　　This is the main reason why Yuki Aksankai chooses elite education.

　　However, now, the future of RECT is unclear, and Asuna may not be able to inherit too much from her own hands.

　　That being the case—

　　"Let's chat, talk about your study and life."

　　"Eh?"

　　Hearing the tone of his father's words suddenly became very gentle, Yuuki Asuna was stunned.

　　It doesn't seem like today is a holiday, nor is it my birthday...

　　There are also no exams in the school, and I have not participated in any competitions to win awards.

　　Why did the father's attitude suddenly change?

　　Yuuki Akatsuki saw the change in Asuna's expression, but felt a pain in his heart.

　　Even a gentle conversation with her daughter, which should be extremely common, can surprise and confuse the other party?

　　You are really bad yourself.

　　"So, let me put it another way, do you have anything you want to buy, or a place you want to go? As long as I can do it, I can help you achieve it."
