On the other side.
While the gamers gathered in a high-class restaurant and feasted on their food, there was a player who was far away from the crowd.
Yasna sat on a bench outside the restaurant as she listened to the laughter coming from the restaurant. She held a piece of black bread that anyone could buy for 1 Cor. She ate quietly as she pondered about something.
No, Yasna's thoughts were actually very simple.
"I didn't expect to see gamers laughing from the bottom of their hearts in this game — — you must be thinking about this, right?"
A voice voiced out Yasna's thoughts. Yasna froze as she was about to take a bite out of the black bread. She lifted her head and looked at the source of the voice.
At the entrance of the restaurant, a young man had appeared out of nowhere.
He threw something towards Yasna as he walked.
Yasna subconsciously reached out and caught the black shadow that was flying towards her face.
"It's hot …!"
The next moment, Asuna let out a cry of surprise when she felt the heat from her hand.
She took a closer look and realized that the thing that was thrown into Yasna's hand was a piece of fragrant and hot white bread.
"Shouldn't you at least eat this?"
So Rozen laughed mischievously. He didn't seem to be aware that he had done something reckless, which made Yasna furious.
She didn't know why Rozen seemed to have a natural talent for provoking Yasna. He was always able to affect Yasna's emotions.
Yasna wasn't a person who got angry easily. She could even be said to be very cold.
She had always followed her parents' wishes and was strict with herself in school and at home. Yasna's personality was actually quite calm and rational. She didn't have the eccentricity and rebelliousness of other children.
However, it was also because of this that Yasna had a flaw that wasn't too big nor too small.
She had a strong sense of pride.
She wouldn't be willing to lose to others in school.
At home, she would not be willing to lose her upbringing to others.
When they were outside, they would not be willing to lose to others in the evaluation.
Even in other aspects, Yasna did not want to see herself lose to others. Otherwise, she would usher in failure, and failure would make her a useless person. This was the philosophy instilled in her by her parents.
However, when faced with Rozen, Yasna felt that she had lost to him in all aspects.
Moreover, for some reason, the other party seemed to be able to see through Yasna's thoughts, which made Yasna feel even more indignant.
Since that was the case, Rozen only needed to provoke Yasna a little, and it would be impossible for her not to be angry.
Unfortunately, Rozen's forte was provocation.
"Let me guess why you didn't go in." Rozen purposely said, "I don't think it's because I'm a girl and it's filled with stinky men. It's because I'm not here to be intimate with others, I'm here to defeat the boss."
Perfect.
Yasna could no longer remain silent.
"Don't say it as if you know me very well." Yasna lowered her voice and said coldly, "What are you doing here? You're not here to care about your teammate, right? "
Rozen nodded in agreement with Yasna's statement.
"I'm not here to care about a teammate I'm not familiar with, I'm just here to fulfill a promise."
Rozen shrugged and looked at Yasna.
To be more precise, he was looking at the weapon on Yasna's waist.
"That's Steel Rapier, right?" Rozen recognized it at a glance and said: "Among the weapons that can be bought in the weapon shop on this floor, this should be the most advanced type of rapier, but after all, it's still a common weapon that can be bought in the shop, and its performance is not that high."
Hearing this, Asuna answered without hesitation.
"So what?" Yasna said in a low voice, "Weapons are just tools, not to mention in this world. They are all composed of data and files, so you can't trust them at all. So, as long as they can be used, it's fine, right?"
For Yasna, who didn't want to lose to this world, that was indeed a very suitable way of thinking for her.
Unfortunately …
"There are good and bad tools, and even if it's just a tool, as long as you take good care of it, you'll still have feelings for it. Who cares what it's made of?" Rozen curled his lips and said, "Besides, you should use everything you can to survive. Don't tell me you don't understand that?"
Yasna was suddenly speechless.
Looking at Asuna's reaction, Rozen couldn't help but laugh. He immediately opened the main menu and found the item bar. After scrolling through the item list for a while, he selected an item and materialized it.
"Here you go."
Rozen threw the materialized item into Yasna's hand with the same attitude and posture as when he threw the bread.
"This is …"
This time, Yasna was stunned.
What fell into her hand was a rapier sheathed in a scabbard.
Rozen said.
"This is one of the few dropped items that can be obtained on the 1st floor."
Although there were many ways to obtain weapons and armors in SAO, they could be roughly divided into three categories.
One: Drops from monsters and treasure chests.
Two: Rewards obtained after completing a quest.
Three: Crafting items made by players or NPC blacksmiths, leathersmiths, and other production professions using materials and tools.
There was not much difference in the performance of these three types of equipment.
At least, for now, there was no such difference.
When Aincrad was conquered more floors, the Players with production professions gradually began to develop, and the Blacksmiths and Craftsmen's skill proficiency would increase rapidly, so much so that some Players with superior skills would be able to make items that were beyond the current floor.
But for now, there were no Players with production professions, so in the same floor, there was not much difference between the dropped items, rewards, and products made by NPC blacksmiths and craftsmen.
Of course, this referred to weapons and armors of the same level.
In terms of performance, there were still some high-performance weapons and armors on the 1st floor of Aincrad.
For example, Rozen's Thousand Layer Robe was a drop from a small boss, and its quality was enough to rank among the top of all armors. Rozen's Anneal Sword was also one of the few high-performance weapons on the 1st floor, but it was only a reward for completing a quest.
And in the 1st floor, if one were to mention a rapier weapon, there was no doubt that the rapier's performance was the highest.
"Its name is Wind Flower Sword."
