Sword Art Online Crossover: They're all close friends, how did I become a player?

Chapter 195 Battle

stare----

Hozuki and Gilgamesh, who were on the verge of exchanging blows, finally noticed the situation on Yu Bai's side.

Looking at Bu Yue, who was showing concern for her best friend, they felt for a moment that they had lost.

That damn cat is at it again!

Gilgamesh and Fuyuki spent a longer time together than Hozuki.

Therefore, he was all too familiar with Bu Yue's current treacherous concubine behavior.

In contrast, Hozuki didn't spend much time with these two.

But Hozuki, as an assistant to King Enma, has seen the dead over the past thousand years.

He himself is not some kind of ghost or god detached from the real world; in fact, he enjoys traveling around the world when he has free time.

Therefore, Hozuki is naturally the one among the three who is most able to keep up with modern thinking.

Therefore, when he saw Bu Yue's actions, he instantly understood Bu Yue's hidden nature.

"This... Mr. Hozuki, could you please take care of Toyotsuki for us? You know he has a rather special constitution, and we're afraid that Toyotsuki might accidentally travel through time and space and encounter danger when we're not paying attention."

Fuyuki noticed their gazes, but he remained calm and said to Hozuki, who looked up at him with composure.

"Toyotsuki, I accidentally upset you by fighting and arguing with the King of Heroes. We were very worried about your safety while you were away, and I've missed you a lot too. So, could you come back to the citadel with us?"

What a great move! First, he proactively admitted his mistake; then, he expressed his concern; and finally, he made his request.

You've figured out this trick perfectly, no way.

Yu Bai sighed inwardly.

But these words sounded rather harsh to Hozuki.

After all, Hozuki had just reunited with Yu Bai, who had regained his memories.

To put it simply, the two are like lovers in the honeymoon phase, a time when they are inseparable and don't want to be apart for even a moment.

So, suddenly these two "exes" appear and immediately try to get Yu Bai to go with them. Can Hozuki tolerate that?

What are you enduring?

What is forbearance?

Can you eat?

So, Hozuki sneered and spoke to Yu Bai before Yu Bai could reply.

"You haven't even properly explored Hell yet. Didn't you promise to spend all this time with me? What, are you going to back out so soon?"

"Pfft, you scum! To send my dearest friend to a place like hell is utterly absurd!" Gilgamesh's sarcasm, though belated, arrived.

(╬￣皿￣) Hozuki's forehead instantly became covered with veins of endurance, and dangerous sparks flashed in his deep eyes.

If this weren't still the real world, he would have already used his spiked club on him.

However, Hozuki was never one to waste his own energy internally; he generally believed that it was better to avoid destroying his enemies than to engage in internal conflict.

He was unhappy and needed to vent.

Hozuki then challenged Gilgamesh and Futsuki to a duel, taking on both of them single-handedly.

However, after receiving Hozuki's challenge, both Fugetsu and Gilgamesh instantly perked up.

My dearest friend! Look! This time it's not me/the king who's provoking us, it's your new wings that's provoking us!

You'd better keep your eyes wide open and watch carefully. We definitely didn't attack first. We were forced to accept the challenge!

Perhaps because Yu Bai's "running away from home" had such a huge impact on them, Gilgamesh and Bu Yue didn't dare to act rashly for the time being, for fear of angering their best friend again and then "running away from home" again. Where would they find him then?

Looking at the two people's bright, battle-ready eyes, Yu Bai helplessly rubbed his forehead.

Forget it, let them fight. Feelings are built through fighting.

They became friends after fighting. Gil and Fuyuki have been fighting for so long, so adding Hozuki won't make much of a difference.

However, there's only one problem: it won't work.

"You can fight, but you're not allowed in the real world, nor are you allowed to destroy my house in the citadel! And come find me after you're done fighting."

He solemnly told the three that since they were bound to fight whenever they met, he no longer wanted to stop them.

Anyway, he knew in his heart that no matter what these three people did, they wouldn't actually kill the other party.

It's good to let these three vent their frustrations; if that doesn't work, there's always my healing technique.

I guarantee that after one treatment, he'll be a hero again in the next second.

After receiving Yu Bai's consent, Fuyuki, Hozuki, and Gilgamesh exchanged glances, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

Hozuki said coldly, "Then let's go to the Extreme Cold Hell. There aren't many ghosts or jailers there, and the area is big enough."

The main problem is that my spiked club is still in hell, and I need to go get it.

Hozuki had already made up his mind; he was determined to make those two guys in front of him, who were even more annoying than Hakutaku, suffer the consequences!

"Hmph, since my dear friend has agreed, then I will condescend to make the trip."

"Okay, let's go."

Two different responses rang out simultaneously. Although the content of their answers was different, the murderous intent they conveyed towards the other two was absolutely the same!

"Hahaha~ Enkidu, just wait for me to bring you victory!" Gilgamesh laughed heartily as he spoke to Yu Bai. He believed that he could not possibly lose to anyone except Enkidu.

"Fengyue, wait for me to come back in a bit." Buyue looked at Yu Bai expectantly.

"You said you'd stay with me." Hozuki stared intently at Yu Bai.

Yu Bai remained completely calm despite being watched by three people. If he had felt a little guilty at first when he saw the three of them, he was still calm.

Yu Bai now says these are all minor matters.

It's just a way to fool people; it's just a matter of having one more ghost lantern.

"Okay, okay, I'll be waiting for you guys. Good luck! But you guys need to be careful, you know my bottom line, okay?"

Yu Bai coaxed and tricked the three away, just like he would with three unruly children. Looking in the direction they left, Yu Bai couldn't help but sigh.

Alright, now that my three best friends have all gone to fight, I'm all alone. So, what should I do?

"Abai?"

……

Gilgamesh: Another guy who stole his best friend!

Bu Yue: Finally, I can fight without restraint. I think Hell can withstand the antics of the three of them, right?

Hozuki: Tsk, where's my spiked club?!
