(Y/N) POV

Smooth sailing all the back to Vixur's house. I was thinking about how I could defeat Kirito. The only way I could think of was that release Recollection thing he did. It seemed to give him a massive edge over me. If I can shorten the gap, I'm sure I would be golden

I approach the house and the maids let me in. I walk until I see Vixur

"So, game plan?" He asks

"Give me a ramp," I mutter as I grab my sword

"That Release Recollection thing Kirito did. Can I do it too?" I ask. Vixur thinks for a bit

"I might know someone who can do it, no promises though," he says

"That's all I need then," I smirk

The days went by fast. My sword got "enchanted," by a witch. I say release Recollection and I guess the sword will power up or something.

And finally, a ramp and timing. We figured out when Kirito's home and where he is. Then we made a ramp and I'll shot myself off it right into his chambers.

The only difficulty is defeating Kirito. And another is the possibility of needing to fight him and Asuna at the same time. Either way, I'm ready

I nod to the guy beside as he gives the thumbs up.

I look at the ramp, and the tall tower a few kilometres behind it. I start running, I feel my body cut through the air like a blade as I feel my bolt skill kick in

"Time to kick some ass," I mutter as I get launched from the ramp. Like an airplane, I take flight.

I head straight to the Kings living quarters

I didn't think of it, but what if Kirito and Asuna are getting lovey-dovey. That would be a bit awkward

I point my sword in front of me so I can pierce the walls With a loud crack and a bang.

I stand on a marble floor. I see a bed ahead of me, and beside stand Kirito and Asuna

"Sorry to barge in," I say as Kirito stares at me carefully

"So you are gonna cause me trouble," he mutters as two swords appear from nowhere

"I don't want to fight, but you need to slow it down. The advancement in technology is too fast and it's ruining lives. Let the people adapt, they can't change as fast as the tech can, " I say

"We must be fast or it will be the end," He says as Asuna butts in

"We can't just stand here and do nothing," She says as her sword appears

"I will not back down. Even if I have to face you two," I say as I ready my sword

"So be it," Kirito says as he charges. Unlike last time, I had some practice. I use bolt to close the distance and slam my sword into him faster then his eye could spot it.

Asuna was atop of me in an instant, and I pulled a fast one on her.

She tried stabbing me but I stepped back and she lost her balance. I jump forward fast enough so that I could knee her head before she hit the ground.

By then, Kirito was upon me. He swung both his sword as I just dodged them.

"Your better," Kirito says

"I had some time to prepare, it's not too late to back down," I say as he looks determined

"That's a no," He mutters as he raises both swords and yells Release Recollection
