The morning before Nino's kidnapping on the evening of the same day

Chiba, Tokyo, Japan

5:40 AM

Asuna POV

Let me ask you a question.

What can you gain from self-preservation? 

How is it that my life of playing video games and coming from a decent family ended up being on the run because of the fact that I might endanger my own family from the mafia. 

Why does my life suck?

As if it hasn't sucked before. 

I thought being stuck in a game was bad but imagine not being stuck there but now you're in a situation where nothing what you learned in life can apply to the situation that's before me. 

I literally had to learn to fight just so I can protect myself. 

Fight...

Yeah, that's something Kiyotaka-kun wanted us to do if we want to protect ourselves.

It's kinda crazy that from fighting inside of a game to fighting IRL. 

I'm not used to using fists...

It's like...

I miss the feeling of using a sword. 

Not with the intention to kill of course.

But I just felt like I needed something where I can feel comfortable in. 

I wanted to fight my own way. 

I want to protect not just me and Kazuto-kun.

I want to protect the people I've made friends within Class S. 

And also, Kiyotaka-kun. 

The one who thought me that even if it's not a game. 

I can still protect everyone. 

I don't care who I'm against. 

Whether it be the White Room, Port Mafia, or even Fyodor. 

I'm going to live through this. 

I won't lose to anyone.

3rd person POV

Asuna was in her bed as she looks at her own knife. 

The same one she actually used to separate Haru and Kazuto to prevent them from fighting back in the Three Kingdoms exam. 

She kept it knowing that it could be useful in the future. 

Asuna bought it from Keyaki Mall back in school and pretty much has it for some time. 

Unlike Kaguya who trained with Karma to learn how to fight with it. 

Asuna secretly trained herself. 

Though unbeknownst to her while she was on her secret training. 

Both Ayanokouji and Kazuto were secretly watching her train.

Even Ayanokouji himself is impressed that she wanted to improve herself while Kazuto felt kinda awkward that she's working much harder than him. 

This forced Ayanokouji to give Kazuto a more intense training to ready himself for the 6th generation before the Three Kingdoms exam.
