Dimensional Manifestation

Going around all the way, until the sky began to darken, Lin Tianya finally returned to the town of the beginning under the leadership of Yulier, which made him almost doubt his life.

'So is this really the original town I'm familiar with? Should I cross again? '

Anyway, he finally came back, at least Lin Tianya didn't need to worry that he would sleep in the wilderness tonight.

Walking on the streets of the initial town, it can be seen that the number of players in the initial town has decreased a lot at this time. Most of the players who dare to fight have left here and went to the village closer to the maze to practice.

"Huh? Isn't that Asuna?

Hello~! Asuna, long time no see! "

After coming to a square in the town of the beginning, Lin Tianya suddenly saw a familiar figure in a black robe. Because the other party didn't wear a hood, Lin Tianya recognized the other party's identity at a glance.

"President, who is that?"

Yuriel asked cautiously.

She had never met Asuna, let alone knew there was such a person.

"Oh, she's someone I knew before...should be considered a friend?"

Lin Tianya was also a little uncertain.

At this time, the two walked up to Asuna, and Lin Tianya asked with a smile:

"How are you doing? I haven't seen you for a long time."

After all, Lin Tianya spends all day hanging out with the wild boars outside the town of the beginning, so he hasn't seen many familiar faces in the past for a long time.

"Brother Lin, good, long time no see."

The unexpected reunion made Asuna very nervous for a while. She hurriedly stood up, and at the same time glanced at Yulier who was standing beside Lin Tianya from the corner of her eye.

"Brother Lin, why didn't I see you at the 1st floor boss strategy meeting today?"

Asuna regretted not being able to meet Lin Tianya at the strategy meeting during the day, but was also puzzled.

Although she is not what she used to be now, and she has seen many other first-line players, but in her mind, Lin Tianya is still the strongest one.

So, after receiving the invitation from the player named Diabel, she thought that she would definitely see Lin Tianya again at the meeting, and she was excitedly looking forward to it for a long time.

"Well, I refused."

Lin Tianya replied casually.

"why!?"

Asuna's eyes widened in surprise.

In her impression, the other party should be an existence that is very keen on conquering games and saving everyone. Why would she refuse to conquer the boss?

"Because my level is too low."

Lin Tianya spread his hands innocently.

"I'm only level 13 now, and I'm generally about 5 levels behind the first-line players, so even if I go, I can only hold back."

"Level 13? How, how can..."

Suddenly, Asuna stopped. She thought that there had been rumors about the other party during this period of time, so it seemed reasonable that the other party's level would be so low?

"By the way, how old are you, Asuna? It should be quite high, right?"

Lin Tianya asked curiously.

"Ten, eighteen grades."

Asuna said her level with complicated emotions.

Before today, she had always been very proud of her rank. But after learning about Lin Tianya's level, for some reason, she felt a little disgust for herself after a long absence. The level number on the panel also seemed garish no matter how you looked at it.

"Hmm... By the way, why don't you introduce your companion? By the way, this could be your boyfriend."

Seeing that Asuna didn't want to discuss things about levels, Lin Tianya brought the topic to Asuna's companions.

"It's, it's not a boyfriend! I don't have a boyfriend. I never had one. I've been single since I was born!"

Asuna's ears were red with anxiety, and she declared her 'innocence' loudly.

"Uh, hug, sorry, I was wrong."

Lin Tianya understood that he really couldn't joke with Asuna, this little girl was too innocent, she would take a casual joke seriously.

"Hello, my name is Lin Tianya, I don't know how to call you."

Seeing that Asuna was furious and looked like she didn't want to talk to him for the time being, Lin Tianya could only skip over the other party and greet the handsome young man in front of him directly.

"H-Hello, Mr. Lin, my name is Kirito, and I'm Asuna's teammate..."

"Temporary teammate! We just met for the first time today, because we are all solo players, so we decided to temporarily form a team in tomorrow's boss battle!"

Asuna explained the relationship between herself and Kirito in detail, and successfully made Kirito show a hurt expression.

Although it is true that they met for the first time today, and even though their team was indeed formed temporarily, no matter what, everyone is now teammates, so it shouldn't be so ruthless.

"It turns out that you are Mr. Tong, cough, cough... Tongren, I have admired your name for a long time."

To everyone's surprise, after learning of Tongren's name, Lin Tianya was very excited. He firmly grasped Kirito's hand and shook it vigorously up and down twice.

"Huh? Has Mr. Lin heard of me before?"

Kirito was very puzzled. When did he become so famous? Why doesn't he know.

As a player who participated in the closed beta of "SAO", Kirito has always tried to be as low-key as possible, trying not to attract anyone's attention.

No way, after "SAO" has become a veritable death game, those players who have participated in the closed beta and have a lot of closed beta information that other players don't know will easily be hostile by other players.

Kirito doesn't want to live in the hostility and contempt of others all the time, and encounter all kinds of troubles. He just wants to survive, get out of this game alive, and reunite with his family.

"Uh... I, I actually heard your name from another player by accident before, and you are a very anxious guy."

Accidentally slipped the tongue, Lin Tianya was stunned.

What can he say, he can't tell the other party that he actually traveled here, and has heard of Grandpa Tong's name in other worlds?

Then he will be regarded as crazy!

Fortunately, he was always quick-witted, and he came up with a perfect excuse in an instant.

"You mean Klein? How is he doing now?"

Klein is the player Kirito met on the first day of the public beta. He can be regarded as his only friend in this game. He has always been worried about the other party's situation.

"That's right, it's the one who has a certain cause. He's had... a pretty good life, probably."

How could Lin Tianya know the cause of the gram, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only bite the bullet and answer the words with erratic eyes and unnatural tone.

"Great! I haven't heard from Klein for a long time. Thank you, Mr. Lin, for telling me about Klein. Now I feel at ease."

I don't know if Lin Tianya's acting skills are really good, or Kirito is too simple? Of course, it is also possible that concern leads to chaos. In short, Tongren believed Lin Tianya's words so easily.
