It has been two weeks since November 6, 2022. The day of the official release of "Sword Art Online" was the day when 10,000 people were trapped in a dangerous world filled with monsters and difficult bosses on every floor. That same day, 213 players died due to being disconnected from the outside world. The same day when Asuna's world shattered.
