Chapter 688

There are safe areas on every floor and in every dungeon .

Inside these safe areas, monsters won’t appear . If they do spawn outside the area, players who are inside won’t suffer any damage . These rest areas serve as resting spots for players to catch their breaths .

Wu Yan sighed for the nth time . He’s not hiding how upset he is . Finally, Asuna got annoyed .

“Hey, you, are you really that disappointed?”

Asuna said with a pout .

“I know it’s very lucrative to kill the boss but it’s not like you need to Cors or drops, right?”

“The reward is secondary…”

Wu Yan said with a dejected look .

“You don’t understand what it feels like to have your just rewards taken away from you every time because you’re a bit late to the party…”

“You’re making me sound like the villain here…”

Asuna said with arms akimbo .

“We are all a team here, all of us want to clear the floors . Who cares if you don’t kill the boss, the raid group isn’t your enemy!”

“Yes…”

“Stop mopping around!”

Asuna pinched the meat at his waist and she gave them a nice squeeze .

“Yowch!”

Wu Yan howled in pain .

“Are you trying to kill me?! Your move won’t reduce my HP but it still hurts!”

“Stop mopping around then!”

Asuna grumbled .

“I want the Yan who circumvented Post-Motion and smacked the crap out of labyrinth monsters back!”

“I can do that just fine…”

Wu Yan retorted . He glanced at Asuna and he started using a sweet tone .

“Say, Asuna, let me probe the boss, just a bit…”

“Nope . ”

Asuna replied without a pause .

“That’s very dangerous!”

“In what way?! You know what I can do…”

Wu Yan forced a smile onto his face, he’s not the one with the most negotiating power right now, he has to be courteous or this deal could go bust .

“Look, I took care of the 72nd floor Boss, didn’t I?!”

“I don’t doubt your abilities…”

Asuna lowered her head, she continued with a heavy tone .

“What if something unexpected happens?”

Asuna is practically the leader of the raid group, it’s not her first rodeo dealing with uncertainties . She knows how the most prepped raid team can suffer casualties due to negligence or small errors .

Asuna knows that Wu Yan is strong, she can only chase in vain after his giant back . Deep in her heart, she’s afraid that all this would be taken away from her in a heartbeat . He’s the one who changed her, calmed her down, made her food, got her to chill, and, most importantly, made her laugh again . She’s terrified at the thought of Wu Yan’s death .

Asuna just couldn’t imagine what she would do if that happens .

Wu Yan’s smile dimmed down when he noticed her low vibe . He sighed and he pulled her hand up .

Asuna flinched and she looked at him only to find Wu Yan’s familiar smile .

“Don’t worry!”

Wu Yan said with a very convincing tone .

“I won’t die!”

Asuna’s eyes wavered . She looked down at the hand grabbing her and she responded with a firm handshake .

“Okay, it’s a promise between us…”

Wu Yan shook his head with a chortle .

“Sure, sure, it’s a promise then…”

“You better not be lying to me…”

“Who am I?!”

Wu Yan puffed out his chest .

“Do I look like someone who can’t keep his promise?”

Asuna giggled . She placed his hands on her chest .

“You’re the Fae Swordsman, the strongest player in the world . Of course, you’re not a fool who can’t keep his promise…”

Wu Yan rubbed his nose with a slightly embarrassed look .

“Then, I can go fight the boss, right?”

“No!”

“Please, let me go . I promise I will run as fast as possible if anything goes wrong, pretty please?”

“No means no! I don’t care what you say, it’s a no from me!”

Wu Yan’s face moistened with tears .

At this moment, a portal opened up, it’s a portal that can transfer multiple players . Both of them immediately let go of each other’s hands .

A bunch of players arrived, they were sporting similar equipment although they had distinctive styles . Judging from how they were complaining, they probably came after marching a long distance .

The leader is a player wearing what appears to be traditional samurai armor . He had a katana at his waist . He looked like a feudal warrior . By his side was a player with a black coat . He looked like he could live off his good looks, although his sword attested otherwise .

“Kirito?…”

Wu Yan gasped .

“Wait, is that…”

Asuna looked at the dude in samurai armor .

“Klein from Fuurinkazan?”

Kirito looked at the two and he also gasped in slight shock .

“Why are the two of you here?”

The other Fuurinkazan members behind Klein looked at the two of them with wide-opened eyes .

“I-isn’t that…”

Klein pointed his finger at Asuna with a flabbergasted look .

“Isn’t that Asuna-san?”

Klein took a look at Wu Yan and he started connecting the dots .

“The Fae Swordsman, Wu Yan? Why is the Fae Swordsman together with the Flash?”

Wu Yan exchanged a look with Asuna and they both bitterly laughed .

They are players too, is it that inconceivable for them to team up?

Somebody asked the question for them .

“Why are the two of you inside the labyrinth together?”

Kirito tilted his head in puzzlement .

“Are you two in a party? That’s highly unusual…”

The other Fuurinkazan members returned to their senses .

“W-wait, hold on, that’s Asuna-san?”

“Yeaaa! Asuna-san!!!”

They instantly surrounded the two of them in a speed exceeding their stats .

The two were taken aback as they retreated in sync .

“Hey! You guys!”

Klein yelled at his subordinates . He also ran over to them .

“Let me talk to Asuna-san too!”

“Klein… you…”

Kirito grabbed his face with his palm . He started questioning if he made the right friend in Klein .

Wu Yan backed away . Asuna is also not used to being surrounded by six stinky men . She awkwardly smiled with a bead of cold sweat flowing down the side of her head .

“C-calm down…”

Asuna said but the other players were too noisy to hear her . She looked at Wu Yan with pleading eyes .

Wu Yan blinked and then he grinned after realizing the situation . He crossed his arms and he watched from the side .

Asuna is so mad that her anger overwhelmed her panic . This bastard, he sold out his own teammate .

Asuna looked at Kirito . This time, she used a threatening gaze instead of a pair of puppy eyes . Kirito shivered and he shrieked .

“Hey, you guys, don’t take it too far!”

Kirito’s voice fell on deaf ears . Kirito’s words failed against the middle-age fanboys .

“You all…”

Kirito fumed .

“Stop right now!”

The 7 men started brawling…
