Aincrad, the 22nd Floor.
This was a very spacious floor.
In the floating city named Aincrad, the largest area is undoubtedly the first floor at the bottom, followed by the pyramid structure all the way up, the higher the floor, the smaller the area of the floor, located at the top of the 100th floor is the smallest floor.
Therefore, although the 22nd floor was some distance away from the 1st floor, its diameter was still nearly 8 kilometers, which was almost the same as the 1st floor which had a diameter of 10 kilometers.
However, compared to the other spacious floors, the 22nd floor was almost deserted.
The reason was simple.
The theme of this floor was a forest of evergreen trees and numerous lakes scattered everywhere, allowing the forest and lakes to occupy most of the land.
At the center of the floor was probably the largest lake in SAO.
On the south bank of the lake was the main block called "Gauler".
On the north bank was the labyrinth area.
Other than that, there were only coniferous forests, and there were only a few villages, let alone towns.
However, at the south end of this floor, near the periphery, there was a small wooden house.
It was a player's house.
In other words, this was a building that could be bought and used in the game.
A path made of wooden planks crossed the coniferous forest like a dragon, spreading all the way to the wooden house.
"Kacha …"
Accompanied by a slight sound of the door opening, the window of the balcony on the south side of the wooden house was opened, allowing a player to walk out from it, came to the wooden railing, and leaned on it.
"Goo!"
"Woo!"
Two melodious cries came from the small wooden house behind the player. Two rainbow-colored butterflies flew out of the house, chirping happily as they flew into the forest outside. They fluttered in the forest, scattering sparkling powders in the air. It was a very pleasing sight to behold.
The owner of this wooden house was Rozen.
"I didn't buy the wrong house."
Rozen looked at Saichou and Hanachou, who were happily flying in the forest, and inadvertently smiled.
It had been a year and a half since this floor had been cleared.
Due to the low-level floor's vast area, almost all of the floor's terrain consisted of forests, grasslands, and lakes. Very few players frequented this floor. Sometimes, no more than ten players would visit this floor throughout the day. It was a very remote area.
Due to the lack of any important quests or Bosses in the Training Area, the Clearers had to travel from Gauler to the Labyrinth Area in the Main Street to the Labyrinth Area. They had to break through the Tower and defeat the Floor Boss before proceeding to the 23rd Floor. The entire process took only three days, and the players didn't have much of an impression of it.
Now, the players who would come to this floor were probably the fishing masters who went to the lakes or the carpenters who went to the forest to collect wood.
It was also the reason why Rozen appeared here and bought the Forest House.
When Rozen decided to take a long vacation, the first problem he had to face was to find a place where there weren't many players.
And it couldn't be in a town or village. Otherwise, he would be discovered by intelligence agents the next day, and he would be surrounded by all kinds of players.
Under such circumstances, Kirito introduced this place to Rozen.
"When the 22nd Floor was cleared, I went back there to perform a certain quest and found a very remote wooden house. If it's that place, it should be a good place to stay."
Kirito said and provided the map file to Rozen so that Rozen could find this place.
By the way, when he introduced this place to Rozen, Kirito was reluctant to part with it.
"When I first found that place, I wanted to buy it and live in it."
Kirito's expression of regret and reluctance made Rozen curious. What kind of place could make Kirito miss this place so much?
After arriving at this place, Rozan Can finally understood.
"The scenery is not bad, and there aren't any annoying people. As long as a player doesn't want to be in the limelight, they will like this place, right?"
So Rozen looked around at the forest, lake, and the vast blue sky outside the Floating City that was bathed in sunlight.
The amount of money needed to buy this wooden house wasn't very high. It was only 500000 Cor.
For the upper-class players who didn't have enough cash, it was still affordable.
Considering the environment and other factors, if the location of this wooden house was exposed, there would be many upper-class players who would come to buy it, right?
Of course, other than some basic equipment, the newly bought house didn't even have much furniture. In order to purchase the furniture, Rozen had also spent a lot of money. However, looking at the scenery before him, Rozen felt that it was worth it.
"It's definitely enough for a vacation."
If it weren't for the fact that this place was quite a distance from the main street, it would take at least 20 minutes to reach the Teleportation Gate and reach the frontline without using the Teleportation Crystal. Otherwise, Rozen would have wanted to stay here forever.
"For the top players who have to go to the frontline to level up every day, this place isn't too friendly."
It was also because of this that Kirito didn't buy this wooden house and let Rozen take advantage of it.
"If there's a chance, I'll let him stay here for a few more days to make it up to him."
With that thought in mind, Rozen added another condition.
"Just don't bring Xin or Liz here for a date."
Otherwise, Rozen would be tortured to death.
"I'll just stay here for the time being."
All these years, he had been trying his best to improve himself, so a little rest was good.
No matter how hardworking Rozen was and how he had been training his skills for ten years, he wanted to have a good rest now.
"I'll use this time to sort out my thoughts."
Rozen smiled bitterly and supported his chin with his hand. He looked at the scenery before him in a daze and fell into deep thought.
Unfortunately, it wasn't a long time.
Knock knock knock …
After a while, a series of knocks came from the entrance.
"Someone's here?"
Rozen reacted to the situation and was a little surprised.
"I thought no one would come here?"
The only one who knew about this place was Kirito.
"Could it be that that guy couldn't help but come over to take a look?"
Rozen muttered and went to the entrance to open the door for the visitor.
At this time, Rozen didn't expect that his life would be completely changed because of this visitor.
"This place is really nice. I didn't expect you to find such a place."
A beautiful rapier user in a knight suit and miniskirt stood outside the door and said to Rozen with a sweet smile.
