Hey guys, Kurama here with another chpater of the Black swordsman. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
"Talk and spells!" someone says
"MonsterTalk/thought/skills/Game notifications, Quests and Rewards!" Someone says.
"Thoughts," Someone says.
Summary: Kirito is confronted by Suguha for not joining her party. Meanwhile, he also recruits one of the first members of his brand new legion.
Disclaimer: I don't own Sword Art Online, Gun Gale Online, Sword Art Online: Alicization, War of Underworld, Progressive and Unital Ring. These belong to Reki Kawahara and the respective studios that animate them.
Let's begin!
(Two weeks later)
It's been 2 weeks since SAO has officially begun and people are already making guilds and doing raids together.
I should know because Suguha kept asking me about teaming up with her and her friends.

You gained a Perk from reaching 50 in CHA!
Prince Charming!
Description: You have a way of warming your way into a girl's heart with no problem.
That's a good perk. I did develop some muscles from training in the dungeons, I just didn't notice.
Maybe this will help me get a girlfriend in the future.
I'm currently training in the family dojo while I wait for Suguha to finish eating so I can go to school without her following me.
But maybe I can train in the dungeons and get some levels out of it.
"ID: create!"I shout as I'm engulfed in blue light, disappearing from this world.
(Shikestu High: Dinner time)
I'm done training in the dungeons and I managed to get to school without Suguha tailing me.
As the class begins, I check my status to see if I'm ready to recruit people into my legion.
Name: Kazuto Narusaka Kirigaya/Kirito

Superhuman strength!
Description: You surpass the average human in terms of strength.
Lucky bastard!
Description: When you pull a Gacha token, you have a 20% chance of getting a rare item.
These are good perks, but I gotta remember that I'm at the beginning so the stronger I get, the more this going to be.
So I need to make sure that I get free stats whenever I get the chance of doing so.
For making a smart decision You get 1 in your INT stat!
Finally, class ends. I make my way to the cafeteria where I see a girl fighting against two boys and surprisingly, she's doing well.
I use [Observe] on her to figure out who she is.
Name: Asuna Yuuki
Age: 15

LUK: 51
Description: Asuna Yuuki is the daughter of the former CEO of RECT Inc. She also has a brother who wishes to take RECT Inc. when he comes of age and a mother who's cold and distant with her daughter for unknown reasons.
She's starting to struggle and it kind of looks like she needs my help.
I jump into the fray then give one of the boys attacking Asuna a low kick to his shin, knocking him off balance and making him fall on his back.
I then start punching him until he's unconscious and Asuna is done with her opponent. The bully picks up his friend and walks away from us.
REP increase with Asuna Yuuki for helping her against the bullies and being a good fighter!
Asuna Yuuki [15/100]
"Hey, I'm Kazuto Kiragaya. Nice to meet you."I say to her to break the ice.
"Asuna Yuuki. Nice to meet you. You are a very skilled fighter."She replies with a smile on her face.
"Thanks, you're pretty good too. I was wondering if you've heard about SAO?"I ask, not wanting to miss the chance of getting my first member of my Black Legion.
"Yeah, I did hear about it. Why? Do you want me to join you?" Asuna asks as she stares at my face for a while and I nod my head.
"Well, I mean, I was impressed with your fighting skills but I want to fight against you. Just to see if you're going worth it. Deal?" She says as I give her a thumbs-up and a quest pops up.
Quest alert!

Y/N?
I press on the Y button then tell Asuna that I'll wait for her outside of school so I can take her to my family dojo for our fight.
We bid each other farewell and seeing that I've got 30 minutes left before the start of my third period, I might as well use that time to train.
I select my dungeon then disappear in a flash of light.
(Kirigaya dojo: 2 hours later)
I'm currently preparing myself for my fight against Asuna and I think I'm ready for it.
Name: Kazuto Narusaka Kirigaya/Kirito

"This is just a spar, alright? No need for lethal moves."I say as we charge at each other with great speed.
Asuna tries to kick me in the chest but I dodge it by rolling to the side and do a low sweep in the process.
She falls on the ground and I get on top of her, ending the match.
"Looks like I win, right?"I say to her as I get off of her and she nods her head.

We add each other on the party that I created an hour ago just in case I won.
"I've gotta go home before my mom gets angry. I'll see you later, Kazuto."Asuna says as she leaves the dojo to go to her house.
I leave the dojo then head towards the house so I can take a shower but lo and behold, my uncle, my aunt and Suguha are all at the family table, waiting for me to sit down and talk with them.
I go take a seat and wait for my uncle to start talking.
"Kazuto, I know that you know the truth. I guess I was trying to protect myself from the pain of talking about it. I lost my sister that day but maybe I got something to remember her. You, please forgive this foolish old man for being so selfish." Minetaka says as he puts me in a hug.
"Sochi, you were always the best at everything you did. Whether it was learning martial arts, school or even programming. I got scared that you were going to leave us for not telling you the truth. We didn't want you to grow up that way. Not by experiencing pain like that. No child should live without knowing their parents. So please, forgive us for our foolishness." Midori says as she hugs me as well.
For the first time since I lost that tournament when I was 7, I cried like a child, letting my family comfort me until I eventually calmed down.
They left to go to bed and Suguha wanted to go do her homework for tommorow.
I get a notification so I press on it.

Okay, this is pretty awesome.
Oh great, what does Suguha want now?
Can't she just leave me alone now already?
"Kazuto, get over here now!"Suguha says as I dash like maniac to find out what she's talking about.
I see Kayaba, Testuhiro and a woman talking to the news but I can't what they're saying so I put the volume at 7 bars to better hear their conversation.
"As I was saying, the dungeons are now open and can be used. Do remember that you can't leave the dungeon until you have killed the boss. That's all for today, thank you."Testuhiro says as he, Kayaba and the woman leaves the podium.
It doesn't make sense, SAO got launched 2 weeks ago. Why are the dungeons avalaible now? Wait, does one of them know I have the gamer powers?!
I'm brought back to reality by Suguha, who slaps me in the face.
"Kazuto, you need to add me in your party. This is getting too weird and dangerous. I don't want you to get hurt!"Suguha says as she shakes me with tears in her eyes.
"Sugu, I can't do that. What they're planning, I have to figure it out on my own. Please, don't try to stop me."I tell her, not in the mood for a fight with another memeber of my family but she doesn't listen to what I say and adds me to her party.
"Now, you do the same! Do it or I'm gonna tell mom that you want to destroy Testuhiro-sama's careeer!"She shouts in rage as she picks up a shinai that next to her then starts attacking me.
What the hell's wrong with her?! I don't want to destroy Tetsuhiro's career. I just want to know why is Kayaba out of jail and what are they planning with SAO.
"Add me to your party now!"She yells as she starts attacking me again but I dodge it then make my way to Minetaka and Midori's room.
Hopefully, they're not doing that.
I open the door and roll away from another sword strike from Suguha, who has a manic look in her eyes.
"Kazuto, Suguha, what is going on?"Midori says as Sugu drops the Shinai and goes sit next to them.
"Mom, Kazuto doesn't want to add me in his party. I kept telling him to do it but he wouldn't listen to me."She pleads as she starts crying.
"Suguha, you need to realise that Kazuto is not always going to be there for you. You need to take better care of yourself. Kazuto is not always going to be here. He's going to leave us and live by himself. What I am saying is to leave your alone. He doesn't have to be in your party for you to see him."Midori explains as Suguha leaves the room angry.
I hug my uncle and aunt then head towards my room and I'm once there, I figure out exactly what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna take down Kayaba by any means necessary so I can protect the people playing SAO, including Asuna.
