At that moment, Saeko even recalled her childhood.

At that time, she had not even started practicing kendo. Her greatest pleasure every day was to sit outside the dojo, beside the corridor leading to the courtyard, listen to the sound of water bamboo hitting the stones, and look at the pond in the courtyard in a daze.

The world at that time was both simple and peaceful.

I really want to go back to that time...

Saeko's face showed an expression of nostalgia.

Asuna, who was standing beside her, couldn't help but be stunned. At this moment, Saeko's expression on her face was peaceful and quiet, just like the most perfect Yamato Satsuko in the picture.

There was no longer the cold and sharp temperament when I held the Taidao before.

Saeko subconsciously ate the three strawberries on the plate Dafuku.

She suddenly turned red and she bowed slightly.

"It makes you laugh."

"No, it doesn't matter. It's great that Miss Saeko can like the strawberry Daifuku I made.

But my cooking skills are not yet home. If it were made by Master or Miss Mary, it would definitely be better..."

Asuna was humble and suddenly was interrupted by Saeko very strongly.

"No! I think what you make is the best."

Saeko almost subconsciously held Asuna's shoulders with both hands and emphasized.

Asuna seemed to be frightened by her movements and blinked.

"Is that true, you just like it."

Saeko couldn't help but blush. She realized that her actions were a little rude. She quickly let go of Asuna and coughed lightly to cover up her embarrassment.

"Ahem! Anyway, that's what I think.

By the way, can I call you Asuna?"

Saeko tried to change the topic.

"Of course! Then I will call you Saeko in the future. But now everyone calls me Asuna, Saeko can call this name~"

Asuna said with a smile.

"Then, Asuna, huh~ This name is a bit like an online name."

"To be precise, it's the name of the game."

"I see."

It seemed that Asuna's strawberry dafu played a role, or Asuna's sincere smile, Saeko gradually opened her heart to her, and the two of them started talking happily like ordinary besties.

Yui hid in the corner, looking at Asuna who was chatting and laughing with Saeko, and biting the handkerchief with grief.

"Damn it! Where did the big-breasted monster come out? My mother is going to be snatched away now!"

In the other direction, Tizi was wandering around the restaurant.

Whether the restaurant is open or not is a style of opening. When it is not opened, it is like an abandoned haunted restaurant with no one.

There are so many guests in the restaurant now, and it is very lively, which makes Tizi, who is a ten-year-old owl, very excited. After all, she has so many more people to play with.

At this moment, Tiko saw Yui hiding in the corner biting a handkerchief at a glance.

A smirk suddenly appeared on Tizi's little face.

She flew quietly behind Yui and...

"Wow!!"

"ah!!"

Yui was instantly startled by the screams coming from behind, and rushed straight to the ceiling like a rocket, then hit the top heavily, making a loud bang!

The only blessing was that the rules in the restaurant kept her from being injured, but the "slightest" pain was inevitable.

"Hahaha!"

The pig rolled in the air with her belly covered.

"Tirpiz!"

Yui was angry on the spot, covered her head and flew down from the ceiling, rushing towards Tiko with tears and grief.

"Hehe~ you can't catch me!"

Tizi suddenly became even more excited and took Yui directly, and the two little guys flew around the restaurant.

Seeing this, Asuna showed a doting smile on her face, but she didn't stop her, but continued to talk to Saeko about the topics between her best friend.

After a while, Saeko offered to say goodbye.

"It's getting late, I have to go back to the safe zone as soon as possible."

Asuna showed a hint of regret on her face, but soon her eyes lit up, as if she had remembered something, and she quickly called Saeko.

"Saeko, wait a moment."

After saying that, he hurried upstairs.

After re-planning, in addition to the private rooms on the second floor, there are specially divided staff rooms in the corner at the end.

Asuna returned to the room and started rummaging immediately.

Saeko waited patiently for a while, and immediately saw Asuna running down hurriedly with a long strip wrapped in cloth.

"Saeko, I'm giving you this knife."

When he came to Saeko, Asuna pulled off the cloth strip, revealing a sword about one meter long, with its sword hilt and scabbard as bright red as flames, and handed it to her.

"Is this?"

Due to her family background, Saeko is a person who loves and understands swords. She subconsciously took the sword and gently pulled it apart a small part.

Zheng!

A sharp buzzing sound came, as if the air was about to be slashed.

The sword body is forged with unknown materials, and it is faintly glowing under the light. The blade pattern on the blade is neatly shaped like a wave, and the cold light on the blade is flashing.

This knife can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary person.

Saeko was carefully looking at the knife and heard Asuna next to her say.

"This is the equipment I brought out from the Sword Art Realm world, called "Hongchun", and I will give it to you."

Saeko's face changed immediately, and she quickly inserted the knife back into the scabbard and handed it back.

"I can't ask for such a valuable thing!"

Asuna didn't reach out to pick it up.

"It's okay, Saeko just accept it. I used to use a one-handed sword, but now I don't use a sword anymore. "Hongchun" can only be used as a collectible. Isn't that a pity for "Hongchun", so let "Hongchun" play a greater role in the hands of those in need!"

"But..."

Saeko wanted to refute, but when her eyes met Asuna's sincere gaze, she immediately blocked the second half of the words.

"Saeko needs 'Hong Tsubasa' more than me now, so Saeko should accept it."

When Saeko thought of the crisis-ridden environment she was in, she hesitated.

She was not afraid of death. After her companions died one by one in front of her, her heart was already dead.

But now, a trace of hesitation in her heart. If she dies, wouldn’t she never see Asuna again and will never be able to eat such delicious strawberries again?

In the end, Saeko hesitated for a long time, hung the knife solemnly around her waist, and then bowed deeply to Asuna.

"Thank you, Asuna. I'll take this knife.

I will definitely cherish this knife! The knife is in the person, the knife..."

Saeko was about to swear, but Asuna quickly reached out to cover her mouth.

"Idiot! Don't just keep the word "death" on your lips!"

"...Feel sorry."

Asuna delivers Saeko to the entrance of the restaurant.

Saeko's face suddenly turned slightly red and she said with a little twisted.

"I can come to see you again in the future."

"Of course! The door of the alien restaurant is open to you at any time!"
