Dimensional Apartment Manager

Even though Jiuye is holding a shield in his left hand, he is holding a one-handed straight sword in his right hand, so he can easily launch the common sword skill 'horizontal square cut'.

This sword skill is very common, but it can bring good influence and threat to the opponent who is facing the enemy head-on.

Asuna looked at the half-naked male character rushing towards her confidently using sword skills, and she chose to fight.

The original flashing swordsman VS the present half-naked warrior, the battle begins!

Chapter 13 Even so, Kazuto Kiritani can't understand

Jiu Ye adopted a pre-emptive combat plan while disturbing the opponent's mind, which created some opportunities for him to win when he was in a weak position.

There is no way, if it is done according to the conventional PK, Jiuye, who has not fully adapted to this world of stealth, will definitely be defeated.

Since there is going to be a duel, at least you have to make some efforts to win.

Although it is a game, it is not a joke.

Asuna, Jiuye's opponent, was indeed taken aback by this, but her reaction ability honed in previous incidents and long-term stealth was not empty talk.

"Fucking idiot."

Asuna cursed softly, and began to respond to Jiuba's attack.

The sword skill 'Horizontal Square Slash' spreading around the water surface cannot be dodged by retreating, because even if retreating to block, there will be additional combos, so Asuna lowered her body to dodge.

However, this seemingly easy-to-avoid skill caused a blind spot above Asuna's head to appear, and Jiuba created this gap!

Asuna reacts quickly, but it's hard to judge an invisible attack!

Jiuye held the shield with his left hand, and his speed after removing a lot of equipment was much faster than usual, and he swung his right hand more powerfully.

boom!Sparks burst out from the friction between the blades, but Asuna blocked it!

The girl is more flexible than Jiuha imagined, and it is completely different from the 2D image in the animation. Asuna's rapier is raised by her, and it is blocked between herself and Jiuba.

"The attack is too obvious!"

If a blind spot is created, of course the attack will be launched from the blind spot; Jiu Ye's action is simple and direct, and at the same time, the opponent simply raises the sword to block the attack with a keen reaction.

Being blocked, the next step is to be counterattacked, so Jiuye immediately raised his shield to defend.

Jiuye's almost subconscious behavior hugged the points he almost lost!

Because at the next moment, Asuna's rapier pierced through part of the leather shield, which was enough to see the price paid for choosing speed after sacrificing defense.

Having said that, a slight fight allowed Jiuye's brain to continue to function.

Since it was originally in stealth mode, the working brain was also in a state of serious work from the beginning, and Jiuye used this to start analyzing Asuna's attack mode and possible sword skills.

Asuna's character, performance in the original work, and fighting style in the animation, these can all be used as a reference.

Just for reference...

It was impossible for Jiuye to draw a conclusion in a short time, and he swung his arm. This practice also made the straight sword he held horizontally slash. It was not a sword skill, but an action to force the enemy back.

But Asuna saw through Jiuha's intentions, and the girl's windbreaker-like hem was raised in the air, and her figure disappeared.

It also rushed into the blind spot of his vision at a fast enough speed!

Jiu Ye also reacted accordingly, thinking that Asuna, who holds a sword in her right hand, prefers to attack with her forehand, so her position is probably on her left side!

The leather shield was placed between Jiuye and Asuna, and a breath appeared!

The girl with steady steps quickly approached from Jiuye's left flank.

"Well……!!!"

Jiuye didn't hold his breath, or he didn't control his balance well. At this time, Asuna's rapier flew across the void with the streamer, stabbing at Jiuye at an unexpected angle.

Indeed, Jiu Ye guessed that she was on the left side, but he didn't expect Asuna to change her track on the way, and thrust sideways at the moment she rushed to the front!

Asuna didn't make this move for the sake of a fatal blow, but for the next attack.

It was too late to use shield and sword, Jiuye decided to take this blow, betting the chance of winning on the next counterattack.

then--

"First hit!"

Asuna's blade sank into Jiuha's shoulder, scoring a point.

There is no pain, but I can feel my body vibrating, and the HP on the top of my head has also decreased a little.

very good!Jiu Ye was not discouraged, thinking that there was a chance to turn defeat into victory.

But the impact of being hit on the shoulder has not yet dissipated, Asuna did not retreat directly like a turn-based system, but planned to attack Jiuye's abdomen.

Her left foot cut in, and her right foot kicked the ground to accelerate her body, allowing her body to slide forward like a slide.

For the frontal stabbing, Jiuye used the shield counter.

A veritable shield.

Judging Asuna's gait, keep an eye on her right hand weapon.

boom!The blunt sound was produced by the leather shield flicking off the rapier, and a force appeared from left to right, breaking Asuna's well-controlled balance.

Advance!Hisuha rushed into the area where Asuna's chest was located, ready to swing the straight sword.

then……

Jiuye waved his arm!Part of the blade sank into Asuna's chest, and it definitely hit!

"It's two times away!"

"You have no chance!"

Just when Jiuye was about to attack again, a light appeared in front of his eyes.

It was the stream of light generated by the system when the sword skill was launched. Jiuye, who was still on the way to attack, couldn't stop, and the shield was not enough to support him to block Asuna's combo.

This is Asuna's flaw. At the moment of Jiuye's second-stage pursuit, she first used the rush technique 'Meteor' to forcibly adjust her body shape, and then used the double-strike 'Parallel Stab' to cooperate.

Jiuye's posture cannot use sword skills that can be used to evade enemy attacks, and Asuna's rapier gives her a more convenient way to fight.

The light faded away, Jiuye was stabbed twice in the abdomen, was hit by an additional attack, and fell to the ground.

"Don't get carried away!"

"It's not an opponent at all..."

"of course."

Asuna said with a smile.

"You are also very strong, at least in terms of your current level."

"Thank you for the compliment."

The scene turned into a situation where the enemy and the enemy agree with each other, which is quite delicate for Jiuye.

"that……"

A slightly small voice sounded.

"May I interrupt you?"

Appearing at the entrance to the area is a teenager.

When he saw Asuna identifying with the half-naked male character, he couldn't help showing a strange expression.

"I found it according to the information prompted, um... Asuna, this is...?"

"It's a very ordinary duel! Kirito-kun!"

"No, even if you say that, I can't understand it."

The boy named Kirito's eyes fell on Jiuye.

"It's too strange to take off your clothes because of a duel."

Weird, sorry!

Jiu Ye stood up from the ground and patted the dust off his body (although there was none).

"Don't care about these details, this Kirito-kun, I'm just a passing challenger out of interest."

"..."

"Any questions?"

"Put on your clothes first."

I'm sorry, Jiuye thought so, smiling wryly while changing into equipment.

The update says!

Chapter 14 This is how Jiu Ye chooses to make trouble

This is an open-air snack bar at the end of a lively block in Lombar. The female night elf clerk wearing a headband quickly brought out the meatballs ordered by the three of them.

Jiu Ye, who was sitting on the chair, glanced at it. It looked like a rainbow-colored ball. It is said that it has the effect of enhancing night vision, so that adventurers can move around in the forest with poor light, so many adventurers choose to take it away. Instead of sitting here and eating.

The purpose of taking away is to prolong the duration of the BUFF brought by Maruko, but now Jiu Ye and others don't need to go to the forest, so there is no need to save it and eat it when they are adventuring.

"The taste is not much different from ordinary food..."

"That is to say, most of the foods sold in NPC restaurants are functional foods. For example, this meatball can enhance night vision, and some can also increase movement speed, treasure drop rate, critical strike damage, etc.; As I said before, that 'star horned deer' is an ultra-rare and delicious ingredient."

As soon as she heard Jiu Ye's murmur, Asuna quickly swallowed the ball in her mouth, and continued to emphasize how special the star-horned deer they let go not long ago.

"Speaking of which, how does Miss Asuna cook in this game world? The spices sold in the store are not enough."

"That's right, so it's time to do it yourself! The wormwood that blooms by the lake, the berries that grow on tall trees, etc., because the system allows players to match recovery items by themselves, so they can slowly prepare a special flavor. seasoning."

"The system itself implements these things?"

"The original words are only a little bit. It is estimated that the creator also thought of increasing the taste of food in NPC restaurants. At the same time, many players responded; with the update of the version, some hidden special settings are also available. It has been made public, and many special ingredients have been added.”

Jiu Ye responded with "oh oh oh", nodding, he thought that he could try new dishes in the game world in the future.

However, if you want to try to make dishes in the stealth world, you have to wait until the official update of most of the taste systems, otherwise some spices may become colorless and tasteless when combined.

"I also do some cooking in real life, I didn't expect to be able to do it in the world of stealth..."

"Yes, it's just that the sense of taste may have some subtle perceptions. Please don't try it in the real world before the system is perfected."

"Been taught a lesson."

Sure enough, we have to wait until all the systems of the new ALO are perfected.

Considering the frequency of technology upgrades in the world in which the protagonists live, the development of games must be increased, after all, it is a very profitable industry.

After the conversation just now, Jiuye couldn't help being interested in the smell of that star-horned deer.

Earlier in the animation, I saw the hero and the heroine taste the S-level ingredient 'chowder rabbit'. I don't know if the star-horned deer will surpass the taste of the former.

"You two seem to be in perfect harmony..."

Kirito put the eaten bamboo sticks aside, the expression on his face was neither angry nor happy, and certainly not sullen, but rather puzzled.

Probably because of the protagonist's self-confidence and trust in Asuna at the same time, so Kirito's speech was not to ask about the relationship between Kuha and Asuna.

"I didn't expect that there would be people who pay as much attention to the cuisine of this world as you, Asuna... If you want to eat, we can go buy ingredients to make it together."

"Kirito-kun is such an idiot, over there is over there, over here is over here~"

Although what Kirito said is correct, it must be much easier to collect ingredients in reality than in games, but Asuna's rebuttal is undeniable.

Reality is reality, virtuality is virtuality, two different things, different worlds.

"Didn't you say you still have to work part-time? Why did you come early?"

"There are minor adjustments to be made over there due to work problems, and I will come back when I can't be useful."

"After that, go to Yui's place."

"I'm fine, but you have to remember to eat dinner."

Kirito kindly reminded, Asuna nodded to make sure it was okay.

At this time, Kuba didn't stay here as a light bulb, but he spoke to Asuna before leaving.
