The Masked Hero {SAO X Male Reader}

Mysterious Deaths

You were sitting on the couch watch TV while Karen was sitting next to you. Karen noticed something was bothering you.

Karen: Y/N, what's wrong? You've been looking like that for a while.

Y/N: It's just that... I miss Excalibur... Ever since my stats got reset I lost Excalibur...

Karen: Quit being a baby. Don't you have a meeting you need to get to?

Y/N: Oh, right! I forgot!

You quickly ran to the closet and you grabbed your jacket and you ran out of the apartment. You then ran out to your car.

{Restaraunt}

You walked out of the elevator.

???: Hey, Raijin! Over here!

You walked towards the man and you sat down in your seat.

Y/N: Kikuoka, don't call me that in public.

Kikuoka: Okay. This is on me so order anything you like.

Y/N: Then, I'll take you up on that.

You looked at the menu to see how expensive it was.

Y/N: I'll have the Parfait au Chocolat, a framboise millie-feullie, and a hazelnut latte.

The waiter leaves after writing down the order.

Kikuoka: Sorry, to make you come all this way, Y/N.

Y/N: Why am I here?

Kikuoka: Look at this.

Kikuoka hands you a tablet and you grab it to see a man's information on the screen.

Y/N: Who's this?

Kikuoka: Uh, this happened last month, November 14. The landlord of an apartment complex in Nakano Ward, Tokyo, was cleaning the place when he noticed an unpleasent smell. Wondering what it could be, he disabled the automatic lock, and ventured in, where he discovered this man, Tamotsu Shigemura, 26, dead. He's been dead for five days. Although the room was untidy, there were no signs that it had been ransacked and the body was found lying on the bed. And on his head...

You scrolled down to see the image.

Y/N: An Amusphere.

Kikuoka: Exactly. It was ruled an unnatural death so there was an autopsy. The cause of death was determined to be an acute heart failure.

Y/N: Heart failure? Why did it stop?

Kikuoka: We don't know.

Waiter: Here you go, sir.

The waiter sets the two plates down and he walks away.

Kikuoka: Since too much time had elapsed since he'd died and there was little evidence of foul play, the autopsy wasn't very thorough. However it seems that he hadn't eaten for two days while being logged in the whole time.

Y/N: But that kind of thing isn't really unusual. What's up with this case, anyway?

Kikuoka: The game he had installed was Gun Gale Online. You know it?

Y/N: Of course I do. The only MMO game in Japan that has pros playing.

Kikuoka: This man had won a tournament held in October to decide the most powerful player in Gun Gale Online, a.k.a. GGO. His character name was XeXeeD.
