From Shinkawa Kyoji's words, it could be seen that this person knew a lot about Shi Nai.
For example, Kyoji Shinkawa knew that in the previous BoB tournament, the sniper, Shiina, was none other than Shiina Asada, and she was none other than Shiina Asada.
In other words, Shinkawa Kyoji knew about Shi Nai in the game.
That was only natural.
Just like how Naoba entered ALO because of Raigan's recommendation, Shi Nai played GGO because of Shinkawa Kyoji's recommendation.
Before the summer break, which was in June of this year, Shinkawa Kyoji was still Shi Nai's classmate. But ever since the start of the next semester, he had stopped coming to school.
Shi Nai had heard that Kyoji Shinkawa had been bullied by a senior student from a football club. His family ran a large hospital, and he was a weak person. Thus, he was the perfect target for the bullying, and he even paid for the senior student's meals and entertainment.
In the end, Shinkawa Kyoji had stopped coming to school since summer and even had a serious argument with his father.
After all, his father ran a rather large hospital and had ordered him, the second son of the family, to enter medical school. Naturally, Shinkawa Kyoji was not allowed to drop out of school.
After that, although Shinkawa Kyoji was allowed to study at home, he had to take part in the University Equivalency Examination and enter a famous private medical school.
This was also the reason why Shi Nai was so surprised when she saw Shinkawa Kyoji. It had been a long time since he appeared in school and she didn't expect him to appear today.
However, Kyoji Shinkawa was indeed Shi Nai's guide in GGO. He had taken the initiative to talk to Shi Nai, and after getting to know Shi Nai, he immediately recommended GGO to her. That was how the cold female sniper in GGO was born.
Because of this, it was normal for Shinkawa Kyoji to pay attention to the news in GGO and rush over to meet Shi Nai after learning that she had lost to Rozen.
He must have rushed over because he was worried that Shi Nai would be affected by the comments on the internet, right?
Shi Nai secretly thanked him in her heart.
Then …
"I'm fine." Shi Nai shook her head. "I only lost once. I'll definitely win it back next time."
Shi Nai's tone became as firm and unyielding as she was in GGO.
However, Shinagawa Kyoji wasn't as confident.
"Is it really okay?" Kyoji Shinkawa couldn't help but say, "According to the netizens, Rozen the Magician is terrifyingly strong. In just a few days, he managed to defeat so many Players. Even when he was ambushed by powerful Players, including Asaota-san, in the Land of Death, he managed to kill so many of them and escape unscathed. I still can't believe that someone could train a Character to this level."
As he said that, Shinagawa Kyoji's tone changed.
She became more or less jealous.
Shi Na knew that Shinagawa Kyoji must be envious of Rozen.
As Shi Na's guide, Kyoji Shinkawa was naturally a GGO player as well. His character "Mirror" was one of the more famous characters in GGO in the past and was doing quite well in GGO.
However, since a few months ago, Kyoji Shinkawa's character began to go downhill.
It couldn't be helped. Kyoji Shinkawa's character "Mirror" was a very mainstream AGI (Agility) type character in the early stages of GGO. His Ability Points were all inclined towards AGI (Agility). Hence, as the AGI (Agility) playstyle was gradually left behind by the STR (Strength) type character, Kyoji Shinkawa's character "Mirror" completely fell behind.
Especially in the last BoB tournament, Kyoji Shinkawa only made it to the semi-finals of the preliminaries and lost. He didn't even make it to the finals of the preliminaries, let alone enter the main tournament and compete with the other Players for the championship. That was a huge blow to Kyoji Shinkawa, and he almost gave up on the game.
Nowadays, although Kyoji Shinkawa often logged into GGO, his character "Mirror" seemed to have completely disappeared. Other than occasionally meeting with Shi Na, no one knew what he was doing.
It was normal for Kyoji Shinkawa to be envious of Rozen's strength and strength in GGO.
However, Shi Na didn't quite agree with Kyoji Shinkawa.
Shi Na was very clear that Rozen's strength wasn't because of his character's Ability Points, but because he was strong to begin with.
To be able to predict the trajectory of all bullets without relying on the trajectory prediction line, and to be able to use bullets to deflect bullets was like a dream. Coupled with his amazing eyesight, observation, and intelligence, it was all due to that glorious battle in the Land of Death.
Shi Na believed that for Rozen, even if he was using an AGI (Agility) type character that was gradually going downhill, he would still be able to achieve such a result, right?
However, Kyoji Shinkawa probably didn't know about this. He would only think about the mistakes caused by his character's increase in Ability Points and Rozen's strength. Shi Na didn't agree with such an approach.
However, Shi Na wouldn't say these thoughts out loud.
Kyoji Shinkawa was after all just Shi Na's classmate and friend. Even if they had a good relationship, it wasn't Shi Na's place to criticize him.
Therefore, Shi Na could only say that.
"He's indeed very strong. I don't think I'll ever meet an opponent stronger than him."
Shi Na said that, but his tone was full of unwillingness to admit defeat.
"But it's precisely because of this that I have to defeat him."
That's right.
Shi Na had to defeat him.
Otherwise …
"I can't surpass my limits, I can't overcome them …"
Shi Na was about to say something, but realized that he had spilled the beans, so he quickly shut his mouth.
"Asada …"
Kyoji Shinkawa seemed to know something about Shi Na. He wanted to say something but stopped.
"Alright, you don't have to worry that I'll be frustrated because of this failure. I won't admit defeat easily." Shi Na quickly said, "In two days, the third BoB competition will begin. I heard that that man will be participating. This is a good opportunity."
Originally, Shi Nai was prepared to redeem himself in this year's BoB Tournament.
Now that there was a terrifying enemy like Rozen, it was exactly what Shi Na wanted.
"This time, I must win." Shi Na looked at Kyoji Shinkawa and said, "Aren't you going to participate in the BoB competition this time?"
Hearing this, Kyoji Shinkawa smiled bitterly.
"Anyway, with my current Ability Points, even if I participate, I'll only be able to run in the preliminaries. I won't get much results at all." Kyoji Shinkawa smiled and said, "I'll cheer for you, Asada. On the day of the competition, I'll definitely be there to watch."
"Okay." Shi Na nodded.
The two left the school together, talking about things in the game as they gradually walked away.
The sun was setting, and the night soon came.
A new day slowly arrived.
