In the 75th Floor's Floor Boss room, although Rozen participated in the final battle, he and Heathcliff were transferred to the 100th Floor's Red Jade Palace, where the final battle took place.
As for Kirito and other Clearers, including Saichou and Hanachou, who were tamed by Kirito in SAO, they stayed in the 75th Floor's Floor Boss room and fought the Floor Boss, Skeleton Hunter.
Rozen had no idea what the outcome of that battle was.
Also, Rozen didn't know what happened to the people he was familiar with so far.
Did the Clearers sacrifice themselves after he lost them?
What about those bastards in Red Wings, the beta tester guild he's been managing all this time?
And …
One by one, Rozen had to learn from Kirito before he could decide what to do next.
In this regard, Kirito naturally had nothing to hide.
"After you and Heathcliff disappeared together, although the Clearers were in chaos, under the control of me, Klein, and Aikir, there weren't too many casualties in the end. Even if a small number of Clearers lost all their hp due to carelessness, panic, and fear, the loss was very small."
Kirito sighed.
"Our Red Wings didn't have any casualties. After all, Saichou and Hanachou have been controlling the Skeleton Hunter, which greatly slowed down the Skeleton Hunter's attack. It's not the first time we cooperated with your Tamed Monsters, even if it was dangerous, we still survived."
Then, in the middle of the battle, the Skeleton Hunter automatically died.
Rozen defeated Heathcliff and cleared the game, freeing everyone from SAO and returning to the real world.
"I also contacted Klein, Aikir, Xin, Liz, and Celica with the help of SAO's emergency response team. I also contacted everyone in Red Wings and confirmed that everyone survived. They are still recovering in different hospitals, especially Klein and Aikir. Their recovery was very successful, and they have now been discharged from the hospital."
Speaking of this, Kirito showed a relaxed smile.
"It's just that Klein is now worried about whether he can go back to work after skipping two years of work. Aikir originally opened a café in the real world, and it is said that his wife has been supporting the café for the past two years, which made Aikir shed tears."
As for the rest of the players, they were also recovering and reuniting with their families. As for what they should do in the future, they were still confused.
Whether it was as a student or a worker, many people couldn't keep up with the original track after losing two years in the real world. They couldn't go to class, they couldn't continue working, and there were still a lot of problems that needed to be solved.
"The country is trying to find a way to solve this problem. I heard that they can introduce new jobs to those who lost their jobs, and they can also support some players who successfully manage a guild to start their own business. As for the students' academic problems, the higher-ups are also trying to find a solution. We can't go back to school now, but we can definitely go back in the future."
Kirito said in a very relaxed manner.
Kirito and Naoha couldn't help but interrupt.
"I wonder who was the one who was worried that he would have to go back to junior high school like when he was 14 years old, even though he's already 16 years old."
Kirito mercilessly destroyed Kirito's words.
"Didn't Kirito -bro say that if you become my junior, you won't go back to school anymore?"
Naoha also joined in and criticized Kirito.
"Ahahaha …"
Kirito suddenly looked away with an awkward look on his face.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
There was no more grudge between the family, which made people feel warm and touched.
Rozen also enjoyed this feeling.
However, there was one question that Rozen had to ask.
"What about Yasna?"
Rozen asked Kirito.
"How is Yasna?"
As soon as this question came out, Kirito's face froze.
"Yasna?"
Kirito tilted her head in confusion.
"Brother Kirito …"
Naoha seemed to hear something from Rozen's tone, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared, turning into silence.
For Kirito and Naoha, the person Rozen mentioned was just a stranger.
But Kirito knew that the person Rozen mentioned was probably the person he cared about the most and wanted to know the most.
That person had a close relationship with Rozen, and for SAO players, it was also a name that couldn't be ignored.
Kirito naturally felt the same, so when he asked the emergency response team of SAO to provide him with information about the current situation of his acquaintance, he naturally mentioned the girl who has been active with him on the frontline and has always been concerned about Rozen's safety.
But because of this, Kirito's heart quickly cooled down, and he didn't know what to say.
Seeing Kirito like this, Rozen suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Then …
"Tell me." Rozen looked directly at Kirito and said concisely: "What happened to Yasna?"
That unquestionable tone reminded Kirito of the player known as "The Magician," who once led the beta testers guild in SAO and led the clearers.
Coupled with his understanding of Rozen, Kirito knew that he had to tell Rozen about this matter.
"… Calm down and listen to me."
Kirito could only say as if he had given up.
"In fact, after SAO cleared the Instance Dungeon, the rest of the players survived, but except for you who suddenly disappeared, there are still some players who haven't woken up yet, and according to the emergency response team of SAO, the server used for SAO's operation is still working."
Hearing this, Rozen understood.
He understood why Kirito was like this.
Kirito said it as if he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
"There are a total of three hundred players who haven't woken up yet."
"Among them, one of them is called Irina Uechi."
"She is Yasna."
.....
Tozawa.
It was a city located in the southern part of Saitama Prefecture, located on the Musashino Plateau.
Here, there was an advanced medical institution run by a private company.
On this day, a taxi arrived and stopped in front of the gate of the hospital.
And the person who got out of the taxi was Rozen from Tokyo Hospital.
"Is this the place?"
Rozen looked at the hospital in front of him with his back facing the taxi.
Then, a man came to Rozen from the position of the gate as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"Ah, are you Kirito Kirito?"
The person who spoke with such a cheerful voice was a man with a rigid hairstyle and a slender, old-fashioned face. He looked like a Chinese teacher, and his face was filled with kindness. However, if one were to look closely, they would find that he had a professional smile on his face.
"Hello, my name is Kirito Seijiro."
The man who called himself Kirito Seijiro introduced himself.
"Perhaps you already know that I am the current leader of the SAO emergency response team of the Ministry of General Affairs. I belong to the second team of the High Communication Network Revitalization Department of the Ministry of General Affairs."
Kirito Seijiro smiled and extended his hand to Rozen.
"Please enlighten me."
