Sofu(Grandfather)
Summary: It is mentioned in Mother's Rosario book that Asuna went on a week vacation to her paternal Grandparent's house for the competitive annual gathering. We all know that someday in the future, Kazuto will need to meet Asuna's family. So what happens when he actually does? Multi-Chaptered.

A/N: I made it so that even if you didn't understand the previous chapter, you will be just as confused as those who understood Chapter 8 by this time skip. So to those who say they aren't following with what I'm doing with this story, I really don't know what to say. The time skip is due to the fact that in 8 chapters I have only gotten through 3 days. I need to speed this up by a lot. So this is in fact 1 week and 3 days from since Chapter 1 to those who have lost count. I apologize, because I am not good enough to be able to skip and have you not confused.
Chapter 9:
Kazuto woke up at his desk, face pressed to the keyboard, and coding now a mess due to his face. He sat up, rubbed his face and then ran his hand through his hair, yawning. Over the past week they had released the newest grand quest of becoming an Alne, which had thrown everything into chaos, many people recruiting friends to help their races, causing a boom in players. Eugene had started attacking Sylphs, the Sylph and Cait Sith alliance had been broken due to that. There was also shortage of weapons due to the fact that Leprechauns had stopped producing for the whole of population and started focusing on their own armory for their own benifits. Yggdrassil was a much worse place before. Basically the world was in chaos with races just stacking up in numbers to prepare for all out attacks. It was chaos. And it attracted players to ALO.
Right after that new update had been released and announced, Asuna got an idea. That was exactly why Kazuto was now in his chair and not in his bed. She had proposed to the Admin counsel that they should add a Niflheimr beneath Jotunheimr, now that Jotunheimr had been turned into a paradise and the Deviant Gods were now passive. Niflheimr could be the return of the Frost Giants, and Thrymheim, although this time the quest would not be able to destroy the entire map of Alfheim, which was the hard part of the coding, since Cardinal's ending purpose was to completely destroy Aincrad. Kazuto yawned and stretched before pulling his lazy butt off the chair to get prepared for the day.
Asuna almost jumped out of her skin when Kirigaya Minetaka slowly opened his eyes, staring at her with a pair of confused and foggy eyes. She stared back in wide-eyed surprise, completely forgetting the flowers in her hand which she had been about to place in the vase. Right at that moment, Kazuto walked in and stopped short. "O-otousan!"he stuttered out. Minetaka shifted his eyes over to Kazuto and slowly the fog seemed to lift out of his eyes.
"K-kazuto,"he was able to breath out, although it sounded more like a painful groan.
Kazuto finally said, "I'll get the doctor!" Then he raced promptly raced out the door.
It was quite a while later before the doctor finally pronounced Kirigaya Minetaka in a stable condition. Therefore the awkward staring and silence resumed with Minetaka sitting up this time. Kazuto stared at Minetaka, Minetaka stared at Asuna, and Asuna looked back and forth between Minetaka and Kazuto.
Finally Minetaka broke the silence, "Kazuto, would you mind explaining why there was a beautiful young girl by my bedside when I woke up?"
Kazuto sidled over to Asuna, and grabbed her hand, automatically rubbing his thumb in a circle on the back of her hand. Asuna blushed at the contact, still not used to Kazuto showing any affection in public, especially in the presence of his family (other than Suguha of course). "Otousan, this is Asuna. She is a friend I met in SAO,"Kazuto answered. He didn't elaborate any farther.
To their surprise, Minetaka let out a hearty laugh, which ended up in a coughing fit. When Minetaka had stopped coughing, he gave Kazuto an amused glance and said, "Well, she's obviously much more than a friend..."
At that very moment, the door of the hospital room flung open, and Midori hurled herself at Minetaka, already sobbing, and Suguha just walked in, taking care to close the door behind her, although tears rolled down her cheeks too. Kazuto gently pulled his hand from Asuna's and pulled Suguha into a brotherly embrace. In the midst of all the crying and confusion, Asuna pulled her phone out of her pocket and stepped into the hallway. Anyone in the hallway overhearing or spying on her would've only heard her voice and seen her face become more dejected at whatever whoever was on the other end of the phone was saying.
I apologize for the short chapter.
