It was December 17, 2025, when Kirito, Asuna, Eugeo, and Yuuki were together in New Aincrad, on level 22, in the wooden cabin.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzhV6ziRPw
They were eating cake when they heard the login sound. It was Alice.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YJco1NGRF
When Eugeo saw her, he stood up and hugged her. Alice immediately blushed bright red.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFhyNb7wbM
Yuuki then interrupted.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXW4WZDdsj
Yuuki: Asuna, would you like to meet up later in real life and go shopping?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrrSC1VvDs
Asuna: Sure, I'd love that. Afterwards, I can introduce you to my parents. They've wanted to meet you for a while now.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5PElGPdhg
Then Yuuki and Asuna logged off.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbosqx0xfJ
Eugeo: Kirito, are you coming with me? I wanted to get Liz to repair my sword.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUAYeM12li
Kirito: No, I have to go offline and cook something. If I forget again, Sugu will rip my head off.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo62VP7Shwm
Eugeo: Then I'll go alone.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDYmWRSaqS
At that moment, Alice's heart leaped. She couldn't get it up, not knowing how close Liz and Eugeo always were.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqH6IiGF7tW
Alice: Um, well, Eugeo, I'll come with you.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN6PhnvwJG
Eugeo: Oh, sure, you can come along.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkt549Zm6ld
So Kirito logged out, and Alice and Eugeo set off.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMImBkrs514
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoR1qWZ3jM
* at Yuuki and Asuna's
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tneU8hzyt
They had finished shopping and entered Asuna's apartment.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTJuqclV0g
Asuna: Mom! Dad! I'm back! I brought someone with me.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjQSNNjPmJ
Asuna's mom and dad went into the hallway and looked at Yuuki. Asuna's mom almost jumped out of her skin and left the room.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWWEwlAEw8
Asuna's father raised his voice: "ASUNA, THAT GIRL! YOU'LL NEVER SEE HER AGAIN, LET SHE LET SEE HER IN OUR APARTMENT!"
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBH3FRsYy0
With that, Yuuki left the house.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9OrLZCjU1
Asuna was devastated. Her best friend... why? Why?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3ZCfe18qm
She went to her room and cried.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgcaOXQeOv
Meanwhile, at Alice and Eugeo's place
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tzu7pdRsI
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyGpICFj97
They arrived at Liz's smithy.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUQx3PJvcF
Liz: Hey Eugeo, how are you? she asked with a big smile.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhINXU6S23d
Then she looked at Alice.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTZcFTtDc0
Liz: Hey Alice.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00moQcrVK5
Eugeo grinned back.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iz7Xt2vHQ
Eugeo: I'm fine, but I need your help with this sword. It's really broken.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPXeGMBFhs
He showed it to Liz, and their hands touched for a few seconds.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7r4mhTcxqM
In Alice's opinion, a few seconds too long.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzFX25ku9U
Alice: Um, well... I have to go now.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaOmftfW07
And before Liz or Eugeo could say anything, she was gone.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJF2eKTCYS9
Alice wandered around alone.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFX5Fjru5G
Alice: Idiot, Liz! Ugh, I'll use my sword someday.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJJekP9NFW
She said to herself and continued walking.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1oe484FVg
Kirito was cooking when Suguha came home from kendo practice.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R8wAqUCee
She rushed into the kitchen to find Kirito cooking.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApsqeAfOBv
Kirito: Hey Sugu! Why are you so excited? I haven't forgotten to cook!
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mTBvBBY8B
Suguha: Oh man, Onii-chan! I found something in the attic earlier. She opened the book. It seemed to contain the names of old family members.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sZYIUVct0
Kirito: And that's why all the drama, Sugu! What's so special about that?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZYH4Bqksy
Suguha: No, Kirito, look!
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6UZN4CDMi
She pointed to a relative who lived from 1889 to 1960.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCGCo2ZlRD
The name: Dietrich Ryoutarou
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRA7YcWhHd
Kirito looked up, confused.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70ZN2YXfOm
Kirito: No, Suguha, that can't be right, it must be just a coincidence.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxZtTVuPIR
Suguha: No, I called Klein earlier. He really did have a distant relative with that name.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjp6ZS7JHh4
Addendum: Kirito and Suguha later spoke with their parents, and Klein was indeed a distant relative of theirs.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazpcBX31hr
The next morning, Asuna woke up. Her parents called her downstairs to the living room.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o7YeFLD4L
Asuna's mother: We need to talk.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdYgpfuZRo
Asuna, sit silently.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM9yvB09MO
Asuna's father: This Yuuki, she's... She's your half-sister. Some time after her birth, your mother had an affair with me and became pregnant. I forgave her, but only on the condition that we put her up for adoption afterward and keep it a secret. It would have been a disgrace to this family.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUXgmlyymX
Asuna looked at her.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQt4f5aXKW
Asuna: She's... My... sister...
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JEhyn8rIu
Asuna's mother: Yes, Asuna... And that's why it's better if you don't see her anymore.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hClVONFIf
Asuna looked at her parents and became angry.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKddAPRMIGF
Asuna: No, no, and again, no! I will still see her, now more than ever. I'm not responsible for your mistakes.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63JODoO6bz
Without hesitation, Asuna left the house.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK6CRDqJsw
* At Alice's side at that moment
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQHaqzWdIX
She wanted to apologize to Eugeo for disappearing so suddenly yesterday when she saw them together in an alley.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtmg7DcC7R
Eugeo and Liz... kissing.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptDV0Tskgq
Alice's heart broke into a thousand pieces at that moment.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ683UyF3s7p
Eugeo noticed Alice.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYkW4LaF7a
Eugeo: Oh, Alice, um, we didn't mean for it to be like this...
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdCNEMITYz
Alice interrupted her and started to cry.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqh1n9l5aD
Alice: You... You... You IDIOT!
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOm73ocbFtN
Eugeo didn't understand at all.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11L14YQLix
Alice: Haven't you ever noticed the looks I give you? I... I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU, OK?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FtsHLiaur
Alice turned around and ran away.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAom84J1RS
Eugeo: Alice, wait! But she was already gone.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabLiVRE7Mg
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx0iEBLfXB
Kirito and Suguha
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0X1TCvc4S
They asked Klein to come to Alo; they wanted to talk to him.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOU3sQhXgs
Klein logged in.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L5KG68qme
Klein: So, you wanted to talk to me. What's up?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ksNXilj71
Suguha: Hey Klein, well, I found a book on our attic earlier, and according to this book, we're distant cousins.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsO2qWLYW1
Klein: Wait, is this a joke???
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A4wtqsKua
Kirito: No, it's not.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmQ8rJZ8aX
They were both afraid of his reaction.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFdzKiQE3k
Klein: That's... YES, AWESOME! THEN WE'RE RELATED FROM TODAY ON!
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRkbG7Rvgu
Kirito: You're not shocked?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmwSrEYGgA
Klein: NO, NOT AT ALL! This is awesome! Now I can always say I have a cousin.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJBBeLd28A
And so the three of them talked and laughed for several more hours.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePhBxXgHGa
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy77CROPvEp
* Meanwhile, at Asuna's
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwRgSSLlDJ
She walked through the park where she met Yuuki.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtGd8qfvZt
She sat down next to her in silence.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb8jlBXugw
Asuna: Yuuki, can we talk for a minute?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0jgC1zEk0
Yuuki: Sure, anytime.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2cyY2V7fE
Asuna: So, now I know why my parents reacted the way they did.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQsqFR6Ymm
She remained silent.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1bt8y56sd
Asuna: My mother cheated on my father years ago and had a child.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VjMgbPysV
...That child is you, Yuuki. You're my half-sister...
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc12xIoJfj
Yuuki looked at her, unsure what to say.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAJcPY63oe
Yuuki: You... Are you my sister???
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJBDjv2ESK
Asuna: Yes, I understand if you don't want anything to do with me anymore. After all, my parents just gave you away...
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNz143m4RV
Yuuki: Asuna... NO, NEVER! I always thought you were my best friend, but... This is even better.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCUUcKGaE6
Yuuki hugged Asuna tightly, and they embraced for a long time. They now had a bond that would last forever.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3m4v8XVHF
At Eugeo and Alice
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3sgozStUZ
Eugeo: Please, Alice, stay still.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgugF0ybQeP
Alice stopped.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXwK6YDvgf
Alice: Eugeo, please go away. I don't want to see anyone.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKvc2J1vFi
Eugeo: No, I won't leave you alone like this.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFk8lH5fAJ
Eugeo: I'm sorry I never noticed. I didn't mean to hurt you.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XacyZoYEX
Alice: I know, and you've made your choice. That's just how it is.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk4J6Z3L9h
Eugeo placed his hand on her shoulder.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjjQjePI5i
Eugeo: May I?
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjOT7jVYHM
Alice nodded.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fcL8hEM4s
He pulled her into a hug.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkMMWnMm4z
Alice: Thank you, Eugeo. I really do.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrKFbKvrFJ
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AbTVMG1o9
Epilogue:
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1iAxgYnFZ
The next day, everyone met at Agile's bar to celebrate.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fj1cJe8TX
Kirito: So, let's drink to our new siblings, our new couple, and well... our new family relationships.
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmUKja0LE5
Kirito: Kanpai
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ABMDiHSDA
Everyone: Kanpai
172Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡis3PI3Miw3
They stayed for several hours, laughing and talking
