"Hmm?" Zhao Si looked at her puzzledly.

"Asuna, you kissed me, mouth to mouth, don't you have any thoughts?" Zhao Wu looked at him with a smile on his face.

"Hey, yes, yes, you said it yourself, right? In order to solve the situation with Asuna, you kissed Asuna according to the method that the boss told you. That was her first kiss, very precious." Erya also laughed and looked at Zhao Si with an ambiguous expression.

"I think you should just stop studying the magic array and just go for it and kill Asuna... uh, haha..." Before Erya could finish her words, Zhao Wu pulled her clothes. Then she saw Zhao Si's raised fist and immediately closed her mouth with a wry smile on her face.

"Hey, you two guys, don't talk about this kind of thing in the future. It will affect others and that won't be good." Looking at the two people who became obedient in an instant, Zhao Si said unhappily.

"Okay, okay." After hearing what he said, I don't know if the two guys took it to heart, but their heads were nodding excitedly.

"Forget it, it's up to you." Shaking his head, Zhao Si knew the personalities of both of them very well.

As for the matter of Asuna they mentioned... Zhao Si couldn't help but think of what Madam Blue Rose said at the time.

My Lord, my pollen only works on people I have feelings for, so if you want to remove the effect of the pollen, there is only one way.

That is to find the child's crush and then remove the pollen effect on her body by kissing her.

Eh? Are you kidding? No, this is really the only way, I swear.

Admiring someone?

To be honest, Zhao Si currently doesn't have any thoughts about Asuna in terms of gender.

It’s not that I don’t like Asuna because she’s not pretty, or that I don’t like her personality or anything like that.

In fact, on the day they first met, Zhao Si admired this stubborn and strong girl very much, and she was also very beautiful.

How could a girl like this not have any thoughts after spending so much time with her? Zhao Si wasn't a monk.

But why is there no thought about men and women? This is mainly due to the impression Asuna usually gives Zhao Si.

Let me put it this way, basically, the only reason Asuna went to see Zhao Si was for training, and she basically never went to see Zhao Si for anything else.

Strong, stubborn, serious and even cold, this is the impression Asuna has always given to Zhao Si.

After all these interactions, it was natural for Zhao Si to have no opinion about Asuna in terms of gender. Every time he was with Asuna, he basically interacted with her as a teacher.

In Zhao Si's opinion, Asuna might not have any idea about love between men and women?

This might be true, because Asuna was eager to complete the game and return to the real world, her mind was indeed full of thoughts about how to complete the game, and the so-called love between men and women had long been thrown into an unknown corner by her.

However, what Zhao Si didn't know was that Asuna was, after all, a young girl, a young girl in her prime. No matter how tough and cold she appeared, there was always a soft spot in her heart.

When the effect of the pollen peeled off the hard shell in the girl's heart, the emotions that had been subconsciously hidden and ignored by the girl finally broke out completely.

To be honest, when Zhao Si heard Madam Blue Rose describe the effects of pollen, the reason why he thought Madam Blue Rose was joking was not because he thought the effect of pollen was outrageous, but because he felt that if Madam Blue Rose was not lying, then Asuna should not be affected.

What Zhao Si didn't expect was that when he lowered his head to hear the name Asuna was saying, he ended up hearing his own name.

It can only be said that it was really beyond Zhao Si's expectation that that strong and cold girl actually had such emotions buried deep in her heart.

But no matter what, Asuna was affected by the effect of pollen at that time. As for her specific thoughts after waking up, Zhao Si currently has no way of knowing.

If Asuna could truly recognize her own heart after waking up, then Zhao Si would actually choose to respond to the girl's feelings.

Just kidding, we've been together for so long, and the reason Asuna didn't have any thoughts before was because she herself didn't have any such thoughts. Now that it's like this, if she still doesn't accept it, then Zhao Si is not a man.

Of course, as of now, Asuna doesn't seem to know how to deal with her inner feelings, otherwise she wouldn't do something like pretending to be asleep even though she is awake.

"I'm leaving now. If you guys are alright, hurry up and get ready to face the boss on the 30th floor."

As Zhao Si spoke, the mark on his hand flashed and he disappeared in front of Zhao Wu and Erya.

Zhao Wu and Erya obviously did not lose interest in the discussion, and continued to engage in heated imagination and discussion about the matter between Zhao Si and Asuna.

What the two of them, and even Zhao Si, didn't notice was that when they were talking about Zhao Si and Asuna, at the corner of the corridor, a girl with short pink hair was leaning against the wall. The expression on her face was very surprised because of the content of the conversation between the three of them, and she covered her mouth with her hands.

Mr. Zhao Si and Asuna, kiss?! !

Chapter 513 Moonlit Black Cat Group

Time passed quickly, and soon, a month and a half had passed since Zhao Si wiped out the Smiling Coffin. During this time, the players in the strategy group also successfully advanced the front line to the 40th floor.

Including the previous five months, players have spent six and a half months to make the strategy progress almost halfway. This is good news and exciting for everyone, and everyone's hope is constantly increasing.

In order to celebrate this good news, on the day when the 40th floor was conquered, all the guilds in the conquering group, led by Zhao Wu and others, united and held a celebration banquet in the safe zone of the 40th floor.

Although there are still sixty floors to go before completely conquering Aincrad, holding a celebration party now is a bit of a smug act, but in fact, the vast majority of players would not have the arrogant idea that "conquering this game doesn't seem that difficult."

After all, the strength of the BOSS is obvious to all. No one would have such thoughts in their mind after participating in the BOSS strategy battle. That is simply because they despise themselves for living too long.

The main purpose of holding a celebration banquet is to relieve the pressure that has been accumulated in the players' hearts. Otherwise, if their nerves are always tense, problems will arise sooner or later.

Although Zhao Si can eliminate those groups that like to deliberately harm other players, if someone deliberately seeks death, Zhao Si is powerless to do anything.

Therefore, it is not a problem to hold a celebration banquet to relieve stress. It is precisely because of this consideration that Zhao Wu took the lead in holding this celebration banquet in order to help Zhao Si get a higher mission evaluation.

However, what was dramatic was that, as the main organizers of the banquet, not a single person from Zhao Wu's small group showed up on the day of the banquet. To be honest, this really left the players in the strategy group speechless.

Well, or rather, there actually was one person who came, but many people didn’t know that she had joined Zhao Wu and the others.

"I have the latest information about the 41st floor. How about it? If you want it, I can give you a 95% discount."

In a corner of the banquet, Argo said to a man dressed as a samurai.

The man's name was Klein, and he was the president of the large guild "Feng Lin Huo Shan".

"95% off... What's the difference between this and not buying anything? We're old acquaintances, can't you give me a discount?" Hearing this, Klein said with a pained look on his face.

"That's right. I'm an old acquaintance of the presidents of all the major guilds. Have you ever seen me give them a discount lower than 9.5%? " Argo was unmoved.

"That's neat, just tell me whether you want it or not."

As the biggest information dealer at the moment, he always has the latest and most up-to-date information. Anyone he randomly pulls out from his friend list is the president of a certain guild. Which one of them is not an acquaintance?

In Argo, apart from providing information about the BOSS on the defensive floor to major guilds free of charge, information about clues to hidden missions, hidden props, etc., all require payment, otherwise, they would not be considered information dealers.

Of course, Argo's information wasn't actually very expensive. After all, the information she claimed to have "expended a lot of effort" to obtain was actually something she could get simply by talking to someone in the fake hell. It didn't take much effort at all.

"It's definitely impossible not to..."

Klein sighed. How could he not want it? You know, Argo's intelligence had never been wrong so far. He didn't know where she got all this incredibly accurate information.

After completing the transaction swiftly, Argo was about to look for the next buyer, but at this moment, Klein seemed to suddenly remember something and asked:

"Oh, right, Argo, I remember you were pretty close to Zhao Wu and the others, right? Aren't they planning on coming to the celebration party?"

"Yes." Hearing this, Argo nodded.

Zhao Wu and the others really didn't plan to attend. After all, compared to other people, they actually felt much less pressure. There was really no need to attend an occasion like this.

Instead of wasting time, they might as well do something they like. For them, this can release their emotions better than attending a party.

"He was the initiator, but in the end he didn't show up? That's too outrageous." Klein said helplessly.

Although Zhao Wu and her team are few in number, they have always been a major force in the strategy group, and their achievements are obvious to all.

In the past, some people were bothered by their identity as "testers", but now there are no such people. Basically, everyone admires or respects them.

Not to mention that Zhao Wu and the others are all very beautiful and quite popular in the strategy group.

There are many guilds in the strategy group, and in fact, it would not have any impact if anyone was missing from the celebration party, but Zhao Wu and the others were missing, which made everyone feel that something was missing.

"Who knows? Maybe something urgent happened." Argo shrugged.

She knew why Zhao Wu and the others didn't come. In fact, they were already planning to hold a small celebration party in the fake hell, so they didn't participate here.

Compared to Aincrad, the girls were now increasingly fond of staying in the False Hell, for reasons that no one could pinpoint. Perhaps it was because being in the False Hell made them feel truly alive, or perhaps it was because they had someone like Zhao Si to rely on, so they didn't have to think too much and could just go to Zhao Si if they had any problems.

To be honest, if it weren't for providing information to others, Argo actually didn't want to attend this party.

After chatting briefly for a few more minutes, Argo found another target to sell intelligence to, then said goodbye to Klein and left.

“Klein.”

Not long after Argo left, a voice called out to Klein, who was about to leave.

Feeling that the voice sounded familiar, Klein turned his head and looked. The moment he saw the person coming, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Kirito!?"

The man had short black hair. Although he had been fighting in this world of death game for half a year, Klein could still see the youthfulness on his face when he first met him.

Kirito is also a very powerful guy who is called "Black Swordsman" by the players in the strategy group. He is also Klein's good friend.

To be honest, Klein was very surprised to see Kirito in such an occasion, because in his opinion, with Kirito's personality, he should not attend such a party.

"Kirito, you, you..."

Looking at Kirito in front of him, Klein was just about to reminisce with him, but at this moment, he discovered the figure of a young girl behind Kirito.

It was a girl with short black hair, who looked very well-behaved. She was following behind Kirito, holding Kirito's arm with one hand, and seemed not to be used to this kind of situation.

That is...

Klein was stunned for a moment. He looked at Kirito, then at the girl, and was extremely surprised.

This guy Kirito, has he changed his personality?

His encounter with Kirito can be traced back to the first day of the game's public beta. Klein, as a novice at the time, saw at a glance that Kirito was a veteran, so he planned to ask him how to quickly get started with the game. Because of this, the two became good friends.

In the early days of the game, Kirito briefly teamed up with Klein. However, after clearing the fifth floor, perhaps due to his personality, Kirito finally chose to leave Klein's team and become a solo player.

After that, although they kept in touch, Klein never saw anyone else around Kirito. The impression Kirito left on him was that of a lonely boy.

Because of this, how could Klein not be surprised when he saw someone else next to Kirito, and it was a girl?

Klein was lost in thought, while Kirito was somewhat puzzled by Klein's reaction. He walked over to Klein and waved his hand in front of him.

"What's wrong, Klein?"

"Uh... this..."

Hearing this, Klein came back to his senses and looked curiously at the girl hiding behind Kirito.

"Who is this?"

Could this be Kirito's girlfriend? Wow, when I saw him at the strategy tournament, he was naked, and now he's got a girlfriend? Klein thought.

"Ah, this..."

Hearing this, Kirito's face showed a rare expression of embarrassment. He moved sideways, revealing the girl to Klein.

"She's a member of the same guild as me, her name is Sachi," Kirito said.

"Hello, I'm Sachi. Please, give me your guidance." Following Kirito's introduction, the girl named Sachi bowed to Klein.

Then, Kirito introduced Sachi:

"This is Klein, a friend I met before. I received a lot of care from him."

In fact, Kirito is much stronger than Klein, but when it comes to not fighting, Klein is much more mature than Kirito in other aspects. During the time when the two of them teamed up, Klein also treated Kirito as his younger brother.

Hearing Kirito's words, Sachi bowed to Klein again and said, "Thank you for taking care of Kirito, Mr. Klein."

"Ah... ahaha, it's nothing. Kirito is younger than me, so it's my duty to take care of him..." Hearing this, Klein scratched his head and said.

Turtle, looking at this child's reaction, why does it feel like he's just like a wife thanking her husband?

Kirito, this guy, is he really moving too fast? Or have they been together for a long time and just never told me?

Well, although they were introduced as companions, I guess these two guys are not far from confessing their feelings to each other, right?

Klein thought about it and felt a little relieved about Kirito's change.

But at this moment, as if he thought of something, Klein looked at Kirito in surprise.

"Guild, Kirito, you joined the guild?"

"Yes, it's the guild that Sachi is in." Kirito said, and an embarrassed expression appeared on his face again.

When Klein created the "Wind Mountain Forest", he invited Kirito to join, but Kirito did not agree at that time.

But now, he has joined Xing's guild, so he feels embarrassed when facing Klein.

"I see, you joined Miss Xing's guild..."

Klein nodded, then he took a step forward towards Kirito and put his arms around Kirito's neck.

"Uh, Klein?" Kirito looked at Klein with a puzzled look.

"Sorry, let me borrow this guy for a while. I have something to talk to him about." Ignoring Kirito, Klein said to Xing.

"Eh? Borrow, borrow something? If Mr. Klein has something to say to Kirito-kun, don't worry about me." Xing was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of pink appeared on her face.

"Okay, okay..."
