Crossover Anime: Starting from Jobless Reincarnation

After all, everyone has some hidden reasons for adjusting their appearance. Everyone will slightly improve their looks, which is not excessive, right?

But nowadays, everyone shows their true colors.

Before Kirigaya Naoki could react, a player next to him exclaimed in surprise, "How come you haven't changed at all?"

He was an ordinary-looking, overweight middle-aged man. His figure was noticeably plump, with a large belly that gave him a comical appearance.

Naoki Kiritani shrugged and said, "That's what I look like in real life."

The fat man fell silent, and not only him, but all the male players who heard this fell silent.

For a moment, Kirigaya Naoki's side was eerily silent.

What should I do if there's a really good-looking gay person living nearby?

While good-looking people are popular with the opposite sex, they are also often ostracized by the same sex.

When someone's appearance is at the top of the list among people of the same sex, most people, while not necessarily inclined to exclude them, will subconsciously keep their distance.

After all, no one wants to admit that they are inferior to the other person.

If they feel inferior to the other person, they will try to make things difficult for them if it is within an acceptable range.

The methods to make things difficult for someone don't need to be deliberate. It could be not speaking when you meet them, or stirring up trouble at a crucial moment to see them make a fool of themselves. As the number of people involved increases, this situation will escalate and eventually lead to school violence.

This is the case in Japan. School bullying targets are usually divided into three categories: handsome but unpleasant to talk to, high-achieving but unpleasant to talk to, and handsome and high-achieving but unpleasant to talk to.

In short, school violence usually targets those who are difficult to talk to and have low self-confidence.

Kayaba Akihiko continued speaking without pausing.

"Everyone must be wondering why right now. Why would Kayaba Akihiko, the developer of SAO and NervGear, do this? Is this a large-scale terrorist attack? Or a kidnapping for ransom?"

Kayaba, whose tone had been completely emotionless before, now spoke with a certain emotion in his voice. Even Kirigaya Naoki had to admit that Kayaba Akihiko was a person with great personal charm.

Naoki Kiritani knew about this young genius.

Akihiko Kayaba is renowned as a quantum physicist and a genius game designer, responsible for the foundation of NERvGear and the design of the SAO game. He created the seed that will shape the world: The Seed.

An ordinary-looking man has the power to change the times.

Unfortunately, he chose this path.

"None of these are my goals. In fact, you could say I have no goals or reasons left. If I had to explain why... it's because for me, this situation is the ultimate goal. To create this world and observe it, that's the purpose for which I invented NervGear and created SAO. And now, all my goals have been achieved."

After a brief period of time, Kayaba's indifferent voice began to echo in the hall.

"...That concludes the game announcement for the official launch of 'Sword Art Online Online'. Good luck, players."

The last sentence left a lingering echo before disappearing.

The enormous, crimson cloak rose silently, starting from the tip of the hood, and gradually assimilated with the system message that covered the entire sky, as if melting away.

Its shoulders, chest, and limbs slowly sank into the blood-red water, leaving only a ripple spreading outwards. Then, the message that filled the entire sky vanished suddenly, just as it had appeared.

The sound of the wind blowing across the square, along with the background music played by the NPC band, gradually approached from afar, steadily touching everyone's ears.

The game was restored to its original state. The only change was that some of the game's rules had been altered.

Only when there was a group of 10,000 players did the expected reaction occur.

In short, an overwhelmingly loud noise came from many places, shaking the entire square.

The moment the surrounding red barrier disappeared, Kirigaya Naoki grabbed Asuna and ran away without even thinking.

Before Asuna could react, the boy pulled her away and sent her a private message to Kirito.

Roya: Hurry up, let's farm monsters. Do you want Suguha to cry over your corpse? Let's split up and farm, it'll be more efficient. DM me if you need anything.

Kiritani Kazuto:.

Before Kirigaya Kazuto could react, he saw the message. His pupils contracted suddenly, he swallowed hard, grabbed Mito, and hurriedly said, "Let's go, let's kill some monsters."

When she turned around, she saw a girl with short purple hair and a cute and pretty face.

The girl was very beautiful; her purple eyes were like purple gemstones.

However, the girl's body had changed from being almost two meters tall to only about 1.65 meters, which left Kirito Kazuto somewhat bewildered.

Feeling the warm touch on his hand, Kirito unconsciously swallowed.

It's not his fault. He's never really had any close contact with other girls since he was a child, except for holding his own sister's hand.

It's not his fault; it's all that shut-in older brother's fault. He played video games with him every day, turning him into a shut-in.

After finishing the first boss story, I will continue writing about Mushoku Tensei, which will be the Alice arc.

Chapter 39 Leveling Up

On the other side, Kirigaya Naoki pulled Asuna aside and said with a serious face, "I'm sure you know what's going on."

Asuna, her face contorted with grief, muttered, "It's all over."

Kirigaya Naoki gave the girl a hard slap on the forehead and said seriously, "Cheer up, our priority now is to defeat Kayaba Akihiko and thwart his conspiracy."

Asuna's eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Kirigaya Naoki with expectant eyes and asked curiously, "Do you have a way?"

Naoki Kiritani chuckled coldly. He was barely able to protect himself; what could he do?

He said in a serious tone, "Why don't we just go up to the hundredth floor?"

The light in Asuna's eyes dimmed, and she murmured again, "It's over."

Naoki Kiritani was speechless. He said to her, "Since it has already happened, why not find a way to change it? What's the point of wallowing in self-pity? Besides, it's already like this, there's no need to care about your mother anymore."

After saying that, he forcefully pushed Asuna forward, saying as they walked, "Life is about looking forward, how can you always stay in the same place?"

"Alright, alright, let go, I can walk." Asuna pushed the boy's hand away and walked forward angrily.

"Asuna, what's your level?" Naoki Kiritani asked as he walked up to Asuna.

"Level 3." Asuna frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

After thinking for a moment, Kirigaya Naoki said to the girl, "Let's go fight the man-eating flower."

Asuna's expression froze, and she paused, saying, "I'm only level three now."

The implication was that she should be sent to her death.

Naoki Kiritani said, "It's possible to fight by kiting, and it's definitely possible to fight one monster at a time."

Asuna narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at Kirigaya Naoki and asked, "Are you sure it's okay?"

Naoki Kiritani patted his chest, his face righteous and solemn, and said, "Absolutely no problem."

After much persuasion from the boy, Asuna reluctantly agreed to his request and was invited to join his party. Once in the party, experience points would be shared according to a certain percentage of damage contribution.

Along the way, they learned about some wolf creatures and led Asuna through a winding path to the entrance of the forest.

After exchanging a glance with Asuna, the boy strode forward, gripping his steel sword in his right hand, and walked ahead.

The dappled shade of the trees began to sway, and a gust of wind blew, swirling up the withered yellow leaves on the ground.

Kirigaya Naoki surveyed his surroundings, occasionally striking to instantly kill some of the smaller monsters, giving Asuna no chance to make a move.

Asuna fell silent as she watched the young man wreaking havoc before her.

Do I feel like I'm completely useless?

After clearing out the remaining enemies, we followed the narrow path back to the center of the valley.

The valley center was not as dense as when they first entered the forest, and the sunlight shone directly down on the two of them.

Naoki Kiritani walked up the slope and poked his head out for a glance.

It is indeed a place where carnivorous plants gather.

The carnivorous plants around them stood in twos and threes, moving slowly and aimlessly.

Kirigaya Naoki whispered to Asuna, "I'll attract two or three man-eating plants later. After I finish, you can make your move and take down the zombie directly."

Asuna nodded.

Seeing that Asuna understood him, the boy took a deep breath, picked up a pebble from the ground with his right hand, and began to exert force.

The stone shimmered with a blue luster. Kirigaya Naoki looked around, selected a man-eating flower that was relatively close, and after checking that there were no man-eating flowers with seductive fruits around it, he threw it directly.

The pebble was fast, whistling through the air as it traced an arc and swiftly struck the man-eating plant's head, causing its HP to drop slightly.

In an instant, it and the two carnivorous plants beside it began to move.

The target acquisition mechanism is activated, and the enemy is rapidly approaching Kirigaya Naoki's direction.

The man-eating flower truly lives up to its reputation as an unusual species; not only is its appearance terrifying, but its walking posture is also quite peculiar.

Naoki Kiritani whispered, "I'm about to go. Listen to my instructions."

Asuna nodded. Kirigaya Naoki stood up, walked a short distance forward, lowered his center of gravity, gripped his steel sword tightly in his right hand, and unleashed the Sword God Style sword-drawing technique.

He exhaled, and the sword began to shimmer with a blue luster.

The muscles in his right arm bulged as he placed the sword at his waist.

As the carnivorous plants drew closer, he suddenly drew his sword when they were almost upon him.

The sword gleamed with a cold, eerie light, its speed as swift as lightning. It was incredibly fast.
