[Thought]
[<<Skill>>]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Days went by.
Y/N was currently inside the 75th Floor's Labyrinth.

They were going to fight the boss.
He met with Kirito and Asuna, who were both a bit anxious.

And he too was feeling a bit anxious.
He couldn't explain why, but he just had a feeling that something wasn't right.

Something was off, as if something bad could happen at any moment.

He hadn't felt that way since his fight with the Boss on the 1st Floor.

They got inside the Boss' room, but the boss was nowhere to be seen.
Kirito: Where could it be?
He said.

That's when a massive, strange beast completely made of bones fell from the ceiling, making the whole room shake.

Then, the boss bar appeared.
Y/N: The Skull Reaper...
He read.

It had 5 HP bars.

The more Y/N looked at it, the more he convinced himself that there was no way of beating such a monster.

Heathcliff: Let's go!
He suddenly yelled.

Everyone let out a battle cry, charging at the boss.

But they were too reckless, and as a result, a lot of them died, slayed by the boss.

Y/N stared at it in horror.
They hadn't lost a player since the raid on the 67th Floor.

Kirito looked at Y/N, and they both nodded at each other.

They took their swords out, and rushed at the boss. They both used the Skill <<Vorpal Strike>> with both their swords.

They had enhanced their skill to its maximum, and as a result, the boss had lost an entire HP bar.

Klein: How did they...?
He said, in both shock and awe, as Asuna Smiled.

Y/N glanced at Heathcliff.
He had been hit many times, but his HP had never decreased.

It was obvious the Boss was too powerful even for him, given the frown on his face.

Kirito used the <<Starburst Stream>>, his speed increasing with each blow.

But it was nothing compared to Y/N.
He used <<Vorpal Strike>>, <<Vertical X>>, <<Sharp Nail>>, <<Avalanche>> and <<Crimson Square>> in rapid succession, his speed increasing with each blow, and hitting the boss with a powerful strike in the moment he exchanged Sword Skill.

At that point, not even Heathcliff could follow his movements.

The Boss' HP was decreasing rapidly, as Y/N jumped around like some kind of ball bouncing on the walls, avoiding all the Boss' Attacks.

Even Kirito stopped attacking, looking at Y/N in awe.

Y/N wasn't definitely like the first time they had met.

Yes, he was still sad for losing both Yukio and Keiji, but he had put that all aside, and was giving his all to win.

There weren't any flaws in those powerful hits. Kirito couldn't help but smile at him. He was now so fast they couldn't even see him.

He was truly worthy of the nickname Ghost Swordsman.

Y/N then used <<Fallen Angel>>, finally killing the boss.

He landed on the ground, panting, as the boss behind him exploded in thousands of polygons.

Everyone started cheering.

Asuna, Klein and Kirito walked towards Y/N.
Klein: Man, that was awesome!
He yelled.

Kirito: You're scary.
He said, jokingly, as Asuna gave him a smack on the head.

But Y/N didn't say a word.

Heathcliff looked at him.
It happened in the blink of an eye.

Y/N tried to hit him, but his sword was stopped, as if he had just hit a forcefield.

Heathcliff looked at him, utterly shocked, just like everyone.

And then, a purple panel displaying the words 'Immortal Object' appeared.

Everyone gasped upon seeing it. Asuna looked at Heathcliff.

Asuna: What does this mean, Commander?
She asks, her voice shaking.

He didn't say a word.
Y/N: I'll tell you all the truth.
He suddenly said.

Everyone looked at him.
Y/N: This liar you see here... Is none else but Kayaba Akihiko.
