July 18, 372, Human Era Calendar

Forty-seven!

Fifty!

I only heard 3 good hits out of 50.

Let's see...

That brings it to 41 total.

Looks like the siral water is on you today, Eugeo.

Says the guy who's only at 43.

I'll catch up soon enough.

Come on. It's your turn,

Kirito.

Yeah, yeah.

One year and three months.

Even after swinging away with that axe every day...

I can't take much more of this.

No use complaining about it.

After all, it's our Calling to cut down the Gigas Cedar.

Yeah, I know, I know...

But this job doesn't give you any kind of a sense of accomplishment.

Let's see. How much was its life before this?

Something like 235,590.

A measly 50!

After toiling away for two months, just a measly 50 out of 235,000-something?

We could do this our whole lives and never cut it down!

Well, its bark is as hardy as iron, after all.

The six generations of carvers before us worked on it for 300 years.

So it should take another 18 generations... about 900 years.

Listen, you...

Ouch.

Happy to just play by the rulebook, as usual?

Why don't you put a little thought into how to get us out of this gruntwork?

Wh-What are you doing?

Y-You dirty...

Let's see how you like it!

Why, you—

Well? Give in yet?

Now you've done it!

Take that!

Payback time!

Cut it out, Kirito!

How about here!

Hey! Don't tell me you're slacking off again!

Crap.

H-Hey, Alice.

Y-You're done with your sacred arts lesson?

You're pretty early today.

I'm not early at all.

It's the same time as always.

Since you have enough energy to wrestle,

maybe I should tell Old Man Garitta to increase your cutting quota?

N-No, anything but that!

I'm only kidding.

Now then...

Let's have lunch.

It's hot today,

so eat fast before it all spoils, okay?

Right!

The pie sure tastes awesome today!

Your cooking skills are really improving, Alice!

Y-You really think so? I felt like it was still missing something.

At any rate, such a tasty picnic really deserves to be savored slowly.

Why does the heat make it spoil so quickly?

What do you mean, why?

During the winter we can leave cured meat outside, and it'll keep for days.

Sure, because it's cold during the winter.

Hey! So if we keep it cold, our lunch will last longer, even at this time of year.

Is your plan to summon up snow using the forbidden weather-altering arts?

An Integrity Knight from the Axiom Church would swoop right in and spirit you away.

Ice.

We could keep our food cold enough if we had lots of ice.

And then we could enjoy these tasty lunches for as long as we want!

That's it! Ice!

Let's go find some!

You big dummy.

It's the middle of summer. Where would we find ice?

You couldn't even buy any at the Centoria markets.

Hey...

Do you remember the story about the hero Bercouli?

Which one?

You know...

"Bercouli and the Northern White Dragon."

The hero, Bercouli, followed the Rul River to the north.

Inside a cave in the End Mountains, he found a huge white dragon snoozing atop a pile of treasure.

He took hold of a beautiful sword buried in the treasure, but the instant he did...

According to the story, he found giant icicles hanging just inside the cave, right?

So if we break some off...

Come on...

That's not a bad idea.

Seriously?

Don't you remember? The village laws say that we—

The village law forbids any child unaccompanied by an adult from playing in the End Mountains.

But searching for ice isn't playing.

Everyone in the village would benefit from their food lasting longer, right?

So this should be counted as work.

I agree.

You're absolutely right.

Yeah, but going to the End Mountains isn't just against village law.

There's another problem, too.

What are you talking about?

Isn't it obvious?

The Taboo Index, of course.

We can't just violate the Taboo Index, can we?

Eugeo, this is what it says in the Index.

Taboo Index, Book 1, Chapter 3, Verse 11.

"Thou shalt not cross the End Mountains that encircle the Human Empire."

By "cross," it means entering the Dark Territory on the other side of the End Mountains.

That doesn't include entering the cave.

But...

Ow!

All right, it's settled! On our next day of rest, we'll go find the white dragon!

Uh, I mean the ice cave!

Yeah!

Okay, then we'll meet at the north gate at 7:00 AM.

You got it! And don't oversleep!

Right back at you!

July 21, 372, Human Era Calendar

Jeez.

Of course she has us carry everything.

Well, let's not complain.

We might not get to go out with Alice like this much longer.

Since Alice is the daughter of the village elder,

I'm sure she'll get more and more tied up with her studies.

Yeah. After all, the reason she hasn't been given a Calling is so she can study and hone her sacred arts skills.

And if they want her to be a role model for the village, they'll probably stop her from playing with boys.

Hey!

What are you two whispering about?

Uh, nothing! Right?

Yeah.

We were just talking about how we should get back before the evening bell.

Oh?

That's true.

In that case, let's turn back when Solus reaches the middle of the sky.

Which means we need to hurry!

By the way, did you know?

When this village was first founded,

evil spirits like goblins or orcs would occasionally come from beyond the mountains

to steal sheep or kidnap children!

What? Are you trying to scare me?

I know that story already.

In the end, the Integrity Knights came from Centoria and drove them away, right?

Ever since then, on sunny days,

you can see a Silver Dragon Knight soaring far above the End Mountains!

There's no way... right?

A cave...

Is this the cave in the End Mountains?

Well, we have no choice but to go in now, right?

System Call.

Generate Luminous Element.

Adhere!

Hey, didn't you say that the icicles were hanging just inside the cave?

Did I say that?

You did!

Eugeo?

Bring the light over here.

There, see that?

Seriously? I thought it was getting pretty nippy in here...

It's summer outside, but it's winter inside this cave.

I'm sure we'll find some ice!

Yeah. Let's go a little further in.

Hey, what are we going to do if we actually find a white dragon?

Can't do much else than run.

Don't worry.

The white dragon won't mind if we just take some icicles.

I wouldn't mind nabbing a scale too, though.

Hey, what are you thinking?

I mean, if we can bring home proof that we saw a real dragon...

Hey, it's ice!

There's ice! There's ice here!

I bet there's more up ahead!

Look!

This much ice should be enough to keep all the food in the village cold.

Are you kidding?

We could make it winter in the village for a while!

Hey, don't just stop like that!

What is this?

Just what is...

this?

The bones of the white dragon?

It died?

Hey...

This is all scratched up.

And the tip's been cut off cleanly.

Was it fighting with something?

What living creature could possibly kill a dragon?

These are blade marks.

This dragon was killed by a human.

B-But...

Even the hero Bercouli only managed to get away.

An Integrity Knight?

Don't tell me that an Integrity Knight from the Axiom Church

killed a white dragon, a protector of the realm of humanity?

I don't know.

There might be really powerful knights in the land of darkness, too.

But if there are, then the forces of darkness could just cross over the End Mountains.

What are you doing, Kirito?

This is really heavy!

Is that what I think it is?

Yeah. The treasure Bercouli supposedly tried to steal.

This has got to be the Blue Rose Sword.

No way. It's too heavy.

Even Eugeo and I together couldn't carry it out.

Looks like there's all kinds of other treasure, but...

Yeah. But we can't take any of it, can we?

It'd be like grave robbing.

But the White Dragon won't mind if it's just some ice, right?

So pretty!

What a waste, bringing it back just to have it melt.

But if it means our meals will last longer, what does it matter?

You mean the village's meals, right?

We'd better get going, or we won't make it back by evening.

You're right.

Say...

Which way did we come in from?

We've been walking a long time now.

Do you think maybe it was the other way after all?

You're the one who picked this path because it was closer.

Did you say something?

Not a thing!

Is that the wind?

We're almost outside!

We picked the right path!

Hey! You'll fall if you run in a place like this!

There's the exit!

This is...

...the Dark Territory.

We can't go any further.

Dragon Knights...

The white one...

Is that an Axiom Church Integrity Knight?

So the black one's from the forces of darkness?

No!

Alice!

Taboo Index, Book 1, Chapter 3, Verse 11.

"Thou shalt not cross the End Mountains that encircle the Human Empire."

Alice!

I-I...

I-It's all right, Alice.

It's not like you left the cave. Right? Isn't that right, Kirito?

Kirito?

What's that?

Singular unit detected.

Tracing ID.

Coordinates fixed.

Report complete.

It's gone?

What was that?

I don't know.

Let's just get out of here!

All right, let's go home.

Right.

I'm going to go put this in the cellar.

Okay.

See you.

Look forward to tomorrow's lunch, okay?

Sure!

Y-Yeah.

Alice...

Don't go! Alice!

Alice!

Hey, Kirito!

Yeah. It's the Integrity Knight from yesterday.

He can't be coming for Alice, right?

No way...

For something as small as that?!

Let's go!

Hey!

Alice!

Kirito! Eugeo!

Quiet.

You'd better get away while you can.

Father!

I serve as the village elder. My name is Zuberg.

I am the Axiom Church Integrity Knight overseeing northern Norlangarth,

Deusolbert Synthesis Seven.

For her crimes against the Taboo Index, the child of Gasfut Zuberg, Alice Zuberg,

will now be apprehended, taken in, questioned, and executed.

The charge is Taboo Index, Book 1, Chapter 3, Verse 11:

trespassing into the Dark Territory.

Sir Knight!

A-Alice never went into the Dark Territory!

She just touched the ground with one hand for a second!

That's all she did!

What more do you think she had to do?

Th-Then we're just as guilty as she is!

We were there with her!

If you're taking her, then take us, too!

Eugeo... listen.

I'm going to attack him with the axe.

Then you grab Alice and run!

K-Kirito... but that's...

Who cares about taboos?

Are they more important than Alice's life?

Kirito!

Escort those two boys from the square.

Dammit!

Eugeo, please! Go after her!

Eugeo! At least get these guys off me! Then I'll...

Eugeo!

Alice!

Underworld

Saturday, June 27, 2026

This is a full-automatic Tanegashima!

You dirty PK jerks, how do you like this?

Damn!

You're up! I'll cover you!

Photon Swords?

Teams B and C, head to Grid 4-6 to back up Team A.

You have permission to use grenades.

Hey, Boss, can I go too?

It's probably too late for that.

Just sit back and watch.

I've got this!

Again?

Time's up, huh?

All teams, retreat.

Move away from Grid 1-9.

That was our last hunt for today, right?

You sure you want to end on a loss, Boss?

Doing battle against such an unusual squad won't serve us well in terms of training.

We wouldn't want any negative effects to carry over into the actual operation.

Let's go.

Till next time.

Man, I'd heard the rumors, but GGO sure is hardcore.

SBC Glocken Bar, GGO Capital

I mean, you're allowed to PK all you want wherever you are on the field!

Yeah, but even with no-holds-barred PK-ing, that squadron we just fought was an anomaly.

Normally, you'd PK for money or items...

But those guys only seemed to be focused on killing us.

They were tossing grenades and smoke without restraint.

Wouldn't that put them in the red?

Probably. But they're always like that whenever they show up.

They attack squadrons that are alone in the field, massacre them,

then vanish without even looting items.

Is it true they have a 100% win rate?

As far as I know, yes.

So...

I thought we might stand a chance with our offbeat fighting styles.

That's why I asked you all for your help.

Sorry. I guess my plan was half-baked.

I never thought they'd just retreat like that!

But hey, it's not a defeat, right?

In fact, they're the ones who ran, so I'd say that makes us the victors!

If you can call not knowing anything about them or their objectives a victory.

Well, that's just... um...

I wish we could've at least found out their leader's name.

We didn't even figure out if the boss was actually among them, did we?

Hey! Don't doze off like that!

He said he's been taking time off from school since Thursday, touring companies.

He's probably tangled up in some unsavory business again, huh?

Thank you for all your help, guys.

Hey, no biggie!

Later!

I had fun!

See you!

All right, I'm off, too.

Actually, Asuna...

What is it?

There's something I need your help with.

You mean with the PK squadron?

Actually, it's something else.

Could you and Kirito meet with me on the other side tomorrow?

Let's see... I think our evening's free.

Is Agil-san's shop all right with you?

Of course.

Oh, I'll email you the gist of what I'm going to ask you. Read it over, okay?

Roger that!

Sunday, June 28, 2026

Hey, did you lose more weight?

You think so?

Well, anyway...

Didn't you want to ask me something?

Is it about BoB?

Yeah.

There's a player named Subtilizer who won BoB IV.

He actually won the first one, too.

Everyone was going crazy over the idea of fighting the legendary Subtilizer.

From what I could tell from the live feed, he's quiet, effective, and cold.

It seemed similar to the vibe I was getting from yesterday's PK squadron.

Hey, now that you mention it, it is.

The only difference is that Subtilizer's on a whole other level.

I mean, I'm strong too, but...

He read my every move and forced me into extreme close combat.

I was killed before I could even aim my gun.

That's incredible.

He can actually predict the movements of experienced BoB players?

Well, I guess being experienced means you always go for the best attack methods.

It must make you a bit predictable, I guess.

Which brings me to my request.

The way I see it, a player who acts totally off-script might be able to outmaneuver Subtilizer.

I know I'm a bit early, but I'd like your help in the fifth one at the end of the year.

That's why I've asked you here today.

Whoever we're up against, we're definitely going to win the next one!

Whatever it takes!

Looks like you're pretty much over it now.

It isn't like I'm not scared at all, but I'm getting better.

By the way, how's he doing?

Shinkawa-kun is...

His condition's starting to stabilize.

I'm planning to visit him again soon.

I see.

Then that means the Death Gun incident is wrapped up now, huh?

Almost. There's still one perp on the run.

Kikuoka said it's just a matter of time before he's arrested, too.

Yeah. I guess so.

Hello!

Hey there, Shino-non!

A-Asuna!

Hello, Asuna!

I'm down for BoB V, by the way!

You asked Asuna, too?

Yep. I was a little nervous that you might get a bit gung-ho out there,

so to keep a leash on you...

Hey, Kirito-kun.

You've lost weight, haven't you?

You think so?

You see? Even Asuna thinks so!

It's because of the work you're doing, isn't it?

Not taking care of yourself, as usual.

It doesn't seem to be affecting your vitals, but...

What are you looking at?

What's this?

Don't stare at it like that.

Hold on, is this Kirito's...

Bingo!

B-But how does that work?

I have a miniature sensor implanted right here.

It sends information over the internet to Asuna's smartphone, pretty much in real time.

Wh-Wh-Why would you...

It wouldn't be an anti-cheating system, would it?

No, no!

Of course not!

When I started my current work, the client recommended that I have it implanted.

They said it would be a hassle to stick electrodes on me every time.

And when I told Asuna about it, she started using it for this.

Looking at it really sets my mind at ease.

The thought that I'm seeing Kirito-kun's heart beating...

It kind of sends me on a little trip, you know?

Yeah, that's kind of concerning, Asuna...

Anyway, I'm sure glad to have you on board.

It's like having a heavy machine gun in a pillbox!

You won't be sorry you picked me!

Now, then...

Let's hear about your sketchy new job.

You're alpha-testing some new VRMMO game, right?

What I'm testing isn't a game.

It's a brain-machine interface for a new full-dive system.

It's being developed by Rath.

I've never heard of that company.

That's the name of an imaginary creature that appears in Through the Looking-Glass.

Some say it's a pig, while others say it's a turtle.

So they're going to release a next-generation full-dive machine?

I don't know about that.

For one thing, it's completely different from the current full-dive tech.

Different? What's the in-game world like?

I don't actually know.

I'm sure it's for the sake of confidentiality,

but any of the memories the machine creates in this VR world aren't brought back to the real world.

Whatever I saw during the tests... whatever I did...

I've forgotten every last detail.

Forgotten every last detail?

Don't tell me it's the same as the Augma?

Not at all!

It doesn't put any stress on your brain like the Augma did.

It's just that I can't remember, since the path to the Fluctlight is being blocked.

Fluct?

How about I explain starting from the general concept?

About this machine... the Soul Translator technology?

Where do you think the human soul is located?

Soul?

In your head... the brain, right?

The brain is more or less a clump of brain cells, right?

So where among the brain cells does the soul exist?

Well...

All cells, including brain cells, are supported by a structural network.

Apparently, they're called microtubules.

Tubes. In other words, hollow pipes.

And there's something sealed inside those hollow pipes.

What's inside them?

Light.

Light. A fluctuating light photon.

And that's what comprises the human soul, according to Rath.

You mean that cluster of light is the human soul?

Right.

And at Rath, this thing that might be the human soul is known as...

The Fluctlight.

So the machine that reads Fluctlights is called the Soul Translator?

But you could do the opposite as well, right?

Opposite?

The Amusphere allows us to experience the virtual world

by sending visual and audio signals to the brain, right?

So couldn't the Soul Translator send information to the soul in the same way?

Yeah, that's right.

The Soul Translator, or STL, writes short-term memories onto the Fluctlight to insert information

of the sights or sounds it wants us to experience.

They call it mnemonic visual data.

I have memories of my test dives at the very beginning.

It was different.

Completely different...

Nothing like the VR world created by the Amusphere.

At first, I couldn't even tell it was a virtual world.

But is it really safe?

It scares me.

It was Kikuoka-san of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who offered you that job, wasn't it?

It's true that I have to be on my guard around that guy.

But I want to know.

I want to find out where full-dive technology is headed.

I have a feeling that there's something more to the STL.

I mean, sure, terms like "Fluctlights" and "mnemonic visual" sound complicated.

But the world created by the STL is like a realistic dream.

A dream?

For example, you have long dreams sometimes, right?

You wake up, and it feels like you've been dreaming for two or three hours.

But chances are, you've actually only been dreaming for a few minutes.

The STL creates the same kind of phenomenon.

Um...

The same way that humans see dreams spanning several hours in a matter of minutes,

you can also experience the virtual world several times longer than the actual dive lasts.

That's the STL's killer app.

Fluctlight Acceleration.

FLA for short.

This is all just...

So during the three days you were diving, about how much time did you experience inside?

I'm not sure.

It could have been from ten days to a month. I have no idea.

The only thing they told me was the code name of the experimental virtual world.

What's it called?

The Underworld.

Under... an underground world?

You know, that could be from Alice too.

That was similar to what the manuscript version of Alice in Wonderland was called.

The original title was Alice's Adventures Under Ground.

Is something wrong?

Well, when I heard the name Alice, it felt like a memory was about to surface.

Does that mean...

It's like...

It's like I'm forgetting something I need to do right away.

We'll be back soon, Agil-san!

See you.

Okay, I'll be in touch again about BoB.

Thanks for coming today.

Sure! See you, Shino-non!

Later, Asuna.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

Nothing. Let's go.

Kirito-kun?

Asuna.

I'm thinking of going after all.

To America?

Yeah.

Full-dive tech research is more advanced over there.

I have to see it.

The moment the next world is created.

It wasn't all just fun and games.

There was so much pain and sadness, too, wasn't there?

Of course you want to find out why that castle summoned you

and where it all leads.

Living a few lifetimes probably won't be enough to get to the bottom of it.

So...

I-I want...

I want you to come with me, Asuna.

I know that's asking a lot.

But I just... I know I can't...

I can't live without you!

Of course I'll come with you.

I'll go wherever you go. No matter where!

Asuna...

But don't you want to research the Soul Translator?

It's a next-generation interface too, right?

I'm not sure about that.

I have a feeling it's not just a machine built to submerge people in virtual worlds.

Then what is it?

It might be a machine for learning more about Fluctlights... about human consciousness.

And also...

I think the STL is an extension of his... of Heathcliff's philosophy.

The commander's?

Why that guy used the NerveGear and SAO to cause thousands of casualties,

why he burned out his own brain,

and why he scattered something like the Seed all over the place at the end of it all...

I guess I do want to find out, but I don't want that to be my career path.

Because that would feel like he was still manipulating me.

Didn't you have a talk with the commander's consciousness?

Yeah.

I have a feeling that the reason he left a copy of himself behind

has something to do with what Rath is trying to accomplish with the STL.

Excuse me!

Could you tell me the way to the station?

It's, uh...

Kirito-kun?

You were skulking around the Dicey Cafe, weren't you?

So much for the surprise attack.

Who are you?

Hey now, don't be like that, Kirito-san.

Oh wait, I always had a mask on when we were inside, didn't I?

Now that XaXa's been caught, the heavy lifting's all on me.

The last survivor of Laughing Coffin!

Johnny Black!

Nope! No swords out here!

So you're still on the run?

Of course!

Look at you now, Kirito.

Without your sword, you're nothing but a scrawny little brat, huh?

I can't believe you're the same swordsman who beat the crap out of me!

What about you? You don't have your poisoned weapon of choice.

Oh, I have it!

I have a poison weapon, all right!

A Death Gun!

Asuna! Run!

Kirito-kun!
