[Sword Art Online] Qing Tong

Because Heathcliff just sent the information to Kirito, and he was the president of the Holy Dragon Union early in the morning, so even if there were thousands of hearts that couldn't let go, in the end Kirito went to the Knights of the Blood Alliance alone. then returned to the Holy Dragon Union.

After confirming their arrangement in the Holy Dragon United in the early morning, they rushed to the Blood Alliance in a hurry.

"Yo, early morning sang."

Seeing the young man with silver-gray hair walking towards him, he slowed down early in the morning, and put away the worry on his face.

"Captain Heathcliff."

The two of them subconsciously stood at a distance of two steps, and a curious and regretful smile suddenly appeared on the young man's face.

"Congratulations on your early morning mulberry."

Early in the morning, he raised his eyes calmly and said sarcastically.

"I'm the one who should congratulate Captain Heathcliff, right? After all, the half of the reconnaissance team locked outside the boss's room are basically members of the Knights of the Blood Order. Congratulations to Captain Heathcliff for keeping himself Elite squads, unlike those of the Holy Dragon Alliance, don't even know death..."

"Chairman early in the morning, please respect yourself!" A man behind Heathcliff said with dissatisfaction, but Heathcliff raised his hand to stop it.

"It is a great pity that the scouts of the Holy Dragon Alliance did not escape. I also express my deep regret here. I admire the captain who returned to the front line to fight in the early morning when he was unwell. The Knights of the Blood Alliance and the Holy Dragon Alliance It can be said that the two most powerful raiding organizations in the raiding group today, I look forward to our smooth cooperation and successful raiding of the next room this time, so that those team members who lost their lives can also rest in peace."

In the early morning, he looked deeply at Heathcliff, his fingers curled up tightly, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"The blood flowing under the banner of the blue sacred dragon will be rewarded with more lofty and shining glory and praise. Don't worry about it, Captain Heathcliff. As long as you can participate in the strategy well, don't do anything unnecessary It’s a pleasure to cooperate with us.”

"Morning president, please respect yourself, our president will take the lead in leading the warriors of the blood alliance in this boss battle, which is beyond the reach of those who only hide behind!"

"Hmph." Early in the morning, he didn't even bother to cast extra glances, and still proudly said to Heathcliff, "This is the last time, my warning: cover your tail tightly, don't show it."

"Received, thank you."

Seeing the back of the Blood Alliance brazenly walking towards the command room of the Blood Alliance early in the morning, a member of the Blood Alliance said angrily: "Leader, even if she is the president of the Holy Dragon Alliance, this guy is too crazy! How dare you warn me?" Threatening you with the leader! It's too much!"

"No, this is real advice." With a mysterious smile on his face, Heathcliff comforted the guards beside him, and then walked forward.

"However, I didn't intend to reveal it, but whether it will be discovered by some people who are too sharp-eyed... But it's out of my consideration..."

"Captain, what did you say?"

"It's nothing, just a little emotional."

————&—————

And when he walked into the command room early in the morning, he only saw Kirito standing in front of the window waiting for the conquest order to be issued but hesitant.

The sound of crisp footsteps reverberates and overlaps countless times in the arched building space, producing a rather unique reverberation.

"Kirito?"

"Early morning..." Kirito's back was slightly taken aback, and then he turned around.

"What's wrong?" Qingchen tilted her head slightly, looking at Tongren.

Kirito frowned slightly, and then looked at the early morning, "The previous batch of people who went to investigate...did not come out at all...just 5 minutes...they were all wiped out inexplicably, this is too..."

"Tirto." Walked in slowly early in the morning, held Kirito's face gently, and looked into Kirito's eyes seriously, "You are also a strategy player who has been fighting on the front line. We know the death game, but we still choose the strategy without hesitation. We have seen the disappearance of our companions countless times, and encountered bosses we have never seen before countless times... But we are all final victors, there is no doubt about it. "

"And this time, victory will finally greet us!"

"I...I see." The ripples in Kirito's eyes that had been constantly fluctuating finally calmed down, and after thinking in his eyes, Tongren looked back at Qingchen, "Qingchen, this time's strategy...do you want to go too? "

"Well, after all, a team of the Holy Dragon Alliance also entered the leader's house, but there was an unprecedented incident where the investigation team was completely wiped out, so as the most powerful representatives of the guild, Heathcliff and I will personally Participating in the war~" There was a happy smile on the face in the early morning, "It's been a long time to fight side by side, Kirito~"

"Ah...but..."

"but?"

"Early morning..." Kirito bit the corner of his lips, and said as if giving up on himself, "Can you not go! Instead, wait for me here!"

Blinking his eyes early in the morning, after finally digesting the meaning of Kirito's words, a look of disbelief flashed on his face, "Why?"

"Because..." Kirito dodged his gaze early in the morning, "The place where the crystal is invalidated... I really don't know what will happen..."

"Does Kirito have no confidence in my strength?"

"No...but..."

"That means Kirito doesn't have confidence in himself?"

Kirito calmed down and didn't answer the disappointing question early in the morning. What flashed in his mind was the scene of the black cat's mass destruction on a moonlit night that flashed in his memory countless times on nights when no one was there. That kind of powerlessness...that kind of despair ...

"I can't guarantee that in that situation... I can still take care of you... That feeling of being out of control makes me feel..."

Looking at Kirito who seemed to be immersed in some horrible dream, Qingchen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"Kirito, if you die, I won't shed a single tear for you."

"Eh!"

Kirito opened his eyes wide, looking at the indifferent early morning in front of him, the emptiness in his heart suddenly enlarged.

"I will not shed a single tear for a heartless man who mistrusts me and forces me to be left behind at the most unpredictable time. I will forget you, faster than all others, Everything you have done means nothing to me after you die."

Kirito's pupils tightened violently, and he couldn't help imagining such a scene in his mind: in the time without himself, early in the morning, his eyes quickly erased the joy, anger, sorrow and joy for himself, and instead focused his gaze on Another person, they will walk hand in hand, study together, live together, maybe in a few years, they will get married, have children, live the same comfortable life as the life by the lake a few days ago, and then die together...

But all of this has no existence of its own!

Originally, he had already made the assumption that he might live on early in the morning after death, but after thinking that there would be another person to replace everything that belonged to him, Kirito felt that his heart began to itch uncontrollably...

The itching was so uncontrollable that he wanted to scratch, but in the next second, the injured claws scratched out countless bloody wounds.

"Early morning...I...I just..."

Kirito looked weakly at the early morning who had already calmed down, and murmured to explain something, but was immediately blocked by a slender finger against all the fragility and timidity that he wanted to vent.

"Hey, Kirito, do you want to personally grasp the future that belongs to me in your hands and give it to someone else?"

"Hold in my hands... your future..."

"Kirito, I obey your wishes, I can withdraw from this battle. Of course, although this battle seems to be quite dangerous so far, but you are strong enough to rank in the top five, you may not be able to participate in this battle Die in the midst of death... Then, Kirito, you can choose to let me stay here, which is more beneficial to you..."

Suddenly, Kirito stretched out his hand to grab Qingqian's slender hand, abruptly interrupting what seemed to be illogical in Qingqian.

"Early in the morning, let's get married, after we come back this time."

The girl staring blankly at the boy's face in front of her gradually opened her eyes wide, and her blue pupils became sparkling, "You mean..."

"Don't reject me anymore." Kirito's eyes filled with an unprecedented expectation, "Maybe I'm weak, maybe I don't have the courage to face the unknown future, but I'm willing to do my best to protect you, I want to live for you, no matter in this world or in that world, no matter what I want to do, I hope to protect you... As for myself, early in the morning, you are willing to follow me, protect me?"

"Eh? Follow...behind you..."

"Ah..." Kirito scratched his head guiltily, "Actually...Qingchen is already very strong, so it probably won't work to just leave Qingchen behind like before..."

"Huh?! Sure enough, you have intentionally left me since the boss battle on the first floor, right?! You said you will always be together, but in the end you just disliked me for being weaker than you and treated me like garbage Throw it to the side of the road, right?!!!"

"Uh...uh... this..." Looking at the indomitable early morning who instantly turned into a tyrannosaurus in front of him, big sweat broke out from his forehead, while secretly regretting that he shouldn't have said his true thoughts casually, While trying to comfort him, "So this time I will definitely bring the early morning one!"

"Hmph!!!" He kicked Kirito's leg hard, and turned his head arrogantly early in the morning, "For the sake of the battle that is about to start, I won't care so much with you..."

"Thank you, miss, for sparing the villain..." Kirito secretly bent his legs and moved his calf, which had been kicked early in the morning, begging for mercy bitterly.

"However! After the strategy is over, I will settle the score with you! I will also settle the score with you for those old lovers of yours!!"

"Hey, hey, hey... Eh? Old lover? I don't have any lover?!"

"I still want to quibble!! Where's the dragon envoy? Where's the pink-haired blacksmith? And that shiny beauty who's been quarreling with you all this time..."

"It was all fabricated by others..."

Compared to the joyful atmosphere in the room, a slender figure left sadly outside the concealed door.
