That was the other side of the unreachable sky.
Even though it was the sky in a game called ALO, it was also because of this that this was an area that even the elves with wings could not reach. It was impossible to reach this place with only the ability to fly for about ten minutes.
There was only one tree that could reach that place.
It was an unimaginable giant tree that rose from the ground of the continent and pierced the heavens.
On that giant tree, each leaf was as huge as a building.
On this giant tree, each branch was as big as a road.
Its height was enough to make one's heart tremble. Even the tallest mountain in the world was like a tiny ant in front of it.
That was the ultimate goal that the nine races wanted to conquer and reach the top, the World Tree.
It was said that on that tree, there was a city in the air.
It was said that on that tree, there was the Elf King Oberon.
However, when they took a closer look, there was no city in the air at all, only a birdcage.
Yes.
Birdcage.
A golden birdcage the size of a luxury suite hung on the branch of the World Tree, which was so eye-catching.
When they took a closer look, the space inside the birdcage was indeed a room.
The floor was made of white tiles.
It was surrounded by a cage made of golden railings.
A round table and chairs made of white marble were located inside, and there was a luxurious white bed with a canopy next to it.
That was everything in that room.
And in that room, on the bed, a girl was sitting there.
That was a girl as beautiful as the queen of the elves.
The young lady had an egg-shaped delicate face and waist-length chestnut hair. She wore a white dress that was so thin that it made one feel uneasy. Near the chest of the dress was a bright red ribbon. Apart from that, there was a pair of inconceivable transparent wings that didn't look like a bird's but rather like an insect's behind the young lady.
If Rozen was here, he would be able to recognize the girl's identity.
In SAO, she was Yasna, a high-level rapier user known as Flash.
In the real world, she was the daughter of RECT's CEO Shozo Yuki, Akina Yuki.
The girl who had been lying on the sickbed for a long time was now sitting there, looking into the distance with her gem-like eyes.
It was filled with sorrow.
At this moment …
"You have such a beautiful expression on your face, Ditania."
A voice that sounded both intoxicating and profane came from the room.
“.....！”
The sadness on Yasna's face immediately disappeared without a trace, and it was replaced by the sharpness and perseverance of the rapier that people called "Flash". Yasna turned her head and looked at the direction of the door.
There, a rather tall man slowly walked in.
He had a head full of golden hair, a silver crown on his head, and a thick green robe decorated with silver threads. On his back was a pair of wings similar to Asuna's, but they weren't transparent insect wings. Instead, they were giant butterfly wings that looked like pitch-black velvet, with bright green patterns on all four wings.
The man also had a well-designed face. In addition to a smooth forehead, there was a high nose bridge, and from his slender eyes, even the pupils of the same color as the wing pattern were shining. His thin lips also showed a smile, he indeed looked like an elegant king.
However, the smile hanging on the corner of the king's mouth could be said to be despising everything in the world.
That smile destroyed the noble and elegant bearing he should have, causing him to seem like a corrupt noble who was using the might of a tiger to intimidate others, and it was extremely worthy of ridicule.
However, in this world, the man did have the power to despise everything in the world.
Because he was the Elf King Oberon.
To be more precise, he was the GM manager who appeared in this world as the Elf King Oberon. He had the highest level of manager authority in the ALO.
As for the man's real name, Yasna was quite clear.
"Susumo Shinji …"
This man was Susumo Shinji.
However, when he heard Yasna call him that, the smile on Susumo Shinji's face turned into displeasure.
"I've already said it before. In this world, call me Elf King Oberon, Titania."
Susumo Shinji was very upset and corrected her.
Unfortunately, Yasna did not compromise at all.
"I have also said that no matter which world you are in, don't call me Titania. I am Yasna Yuki, not Elf Queen Titania."
Yasna declared.
This made the smile on Susumo Shinji's face appear again.
"No, you are Titania, as long as I say you are, then you are." Susumo Shinji spread his hands and said, "Because in this world, I am the king, I am the god. As long as the rules are set by me, it is the truth, and no one can resist it."
While saying this, Nobuyuki Xu was indeed immersed in his current role, enjoying the pleasure brought by power, status, and power to his heart's content. He was extremely intoxicated.
However, in exchange, Yasna looked at him as if she was looking at something dirty.
"If you came here just to show off in front of me, then you can leave. I am not interested in what you have."
Yasna, who said such words coldly, turned her head and ignored Susumo Shinji.
That made Susumo Shinji's expression stiffened again, and his face became gloomy.
Based on previous experiences, Susumo Shinji knew very well that once Yasna entered this state, no matter what he said in front of her, she would not care about him.
It was like a clown playing stupid in front of him. Every time Susumo Shinji came here, he would only get Yasna's cold, ruthless, and contemptuous eyes.
This made Susumo Shinji mad countless times. He wished he could use his manager authority to impose all the ways he could on Yasna to make her regret.
At first, Susumo Shinji also planned to do so. He thought that after entering this world, Yasna would completely become his possession and could no longer resist him. He could do whatever he wanted to her.
Unfortunately, reality slapped Susumo Shinji in the face.
Because of one thing, Susumo Shinji could only imprison Yasna, but he couldn't even touch her.
It was also because of this that Yasna could show such a tough attitude in front of Susumo Shinji.
This made Susumo Shinji grit his teeth countless times, but in the end, there was nothing he could do.
However, today …
"Are you sure you're not interested in what I have to say?"
Susumo Shinji smiled sinisterly.
Asuna didn't pay attention to him. She continued to look outside without saying a word.
Susumo Shinji was not annoyed.
"Today, I went to visit you with the president to see what you look like in reality." Susumo Shinji deliberately mystified her and said, "In the end, guess who I saw?"
Hearing this, Yasna still ignored Susumo Shinji.
Until …
"I saw that person." Susumo Shinji pretended to recall and muttered, "What's that person's name again? He seems to be quite famous, right? I remember his name … "
As he said that, Susumo Shinji put his head behind Yasna and said that name with a smile.
"Rozen … That's his name, right?"
When this sentence came out of Susumo Shinji's mouth …
"— —!"
Yasna suddenly raised her head.
In her eyes, endless surprise, joy, and ecstasy emerged.
