First Boss Preparations (Teaming up with Asuna) - SAO:LW
From Create Your Own Story
The two of you sat on the bench for a very long time, resulting in you losing track of time. It came as a surprise to you to see that you both fell asleep next to each other. Asuna's head is still laying on your shoulder, and you still have your arm wrapped around her waist. You don't know how late it is, but you do know that you may have to hurry, as well as Asuna. You pat Asuna on her head, and she wakes up as well.
- Asuna: Wha... what happened?
- You: Ehm, we kind of fell asleep next to each other.
- Asuna: Ah damn, now people could have lured at us..!
- You: If that happened we'll probably see that in the newspaper eventually. More importantly, we have to hurry today!
- Asuna: Shit you're right! Let's go!
You and Asuna stood up in mere seconds. As soon as she stood up, she realized something importantly.
- Asuna: I just realized that my Inn rent has expired. Is it okay if I prepare today with you?
- You: Of course!
She seems glad with your response. You both head for your room, and you prepare yourselves for today. It came to your mind that if you would make some breakfast for her, she would even like you more. You do so, and damn right you were! It seemed like she almost wanted to kiss you in return, but she restrained. Obviously, since it would be pretty weird to be so grateful to someone you only know one day. When you both are done preparing, Asuna puts on her red rag again. You kind of find it odd that she still puts it on, but you haven't forgotten what she told you yesterday and so you won't intervene with her desires. The two of you head for the Meeting Point.
You arrive with Asuna at the meeting point, and you can see a bunch of familiar faces. Examples are Diavel and Kirito. Out of a sudden, Diavel speaks up.
- Diavel: Okay everyone. Today is the big day where we will mark history in this game. We are going to defeat the First Boss! We have little information regarding the boss. According to the beta-testers of the game, the boss is called: Ilfang the Kobold Lord. It wields a large bone axe, and it's rumored once its 4 HP bars deplete to 1/3 of its last HP bar, it'll change his weapon style from his axe to a weapon that's called nodachi. Also, the boss summons three Ruin Kobold Sentinels, the same monsters Razore and Seven have encountered several days ago. Razore, what was your experience with these monsters?
- You: They are pretty strong in a group, but once fought one-on-one, they're manageable.
- Diavel: You heard it everyone. And that's it for debriefing. Are there any other questions?
No one raises his or her hand. It's assumable that everyone will depart now, and so you prepare with Asuna to get a move on.
Diavel: One last thing. Since Razore and Seven were the ones who discovered the Boss Room, they will be the ones who guide the way. I'm not sure if they party up for this, but his or her team will be the ones who gain the Exp. Any objections?
Yet again, nobody says a thing. You're glad to see that no one has something to complain about, especially with Kibaou out of the way. After Diavel gave his debriefing, Seven walks towards you.
Seven: I'm sorry, but I already have a party with max. members. It seems you got a party member yourself already, so I'm glad to see you're getting along with others quite well. Also, shall I guide the way? It's the least I can do after following you all the way to the Boss Room you know.
This wouldn't be a very hard decision for you. It only gets backed up more when Asuna whispers something to you.
Asuna: Razore, if you let her do the guiding then that will mean we have more time for ourselves hmm?
Would you want to guide the group, or do you want to let Seven do the guiding?
