3 Six Months Later: NerveGear~
Time passed so fast that in a blink of an eye or just a click of the next chapter, six months have already passed by.
I am currently sitting outside the dojo right now with Suguha sitting beside me. She had her head leaning on my shoulder as we rest after an intense training in kendo.
Over these months, our relationship became like what a brother and sister would treat each other. Since I was older than her, I act like a big brother and takes care of her sometimes. I even cooked some food when I found out that she didn't eat.
She also started to act all spoil around me but I didn't mind it since I also want to spoil her a lot. I am quite irritated at Kazuto for leaving a delicate girl like her to live independently which made her mature earlier and missed most of her childhood.
I already knew that their parents are busy at work so that means that it is only Suguha and Kazuto mostly at their home but Kazuto would just always ignore her which made her really sad.
At this time, she was still not aware of their real relationship but I knew that her parents will tell her that after Kazuto is trapped in the game. And at that time, her view of Kazuto would also change as she will begin to develop a romantic feeling towards him.
"I will be not coming here tomorrow Suguha-chan," I said to her softly.
"Oh? Is it that day already?" She asked me.
"Yes."
I have already told her that I would be momentarily reducing my time of practice as I would be playing the new game released which was Sword Art Online. At first, she said she also wants to enter one but I told her that she shouldn't since it would distract her especially now that she will have a tournament at the second month of the new year.
Although she was hesitant, she still agreed to what I told her and just told me to not forget about visiting her or else she would go to my house.
"You know. Onii-chan will be also playing it." She said to me.
I know that she must be talking about Kazuto but since I supposed to have no idea about it. I feign ignorance and asked her.
"Is that so? Maybe we can meet in the game. And get to know what kind of person your brother is." I said to her.
"That would be great."
Then we went quiet as we enjoyed the natural silence, with only our breaths that can be heard as he leaned on each other for comfort. We just enjoyed this rare chance that we share with each other.

I came back home early at that time as I was too excited to meet the other characters in Sword Art Online. My parents noticed that I was especially happy and they all thought that something good must have happened between me and Suguha.
They had already known about the reason why I was always out every day as I told them on the second day I was going there so that they would not be worried.
After eating dinner that night, I then went to my room and slept.

In the morning, I woke up pretty early as I began to do some morning exercises, although I don't need any of these since I am practically very powerful already. I still like the feeling of getting tired when I suppress my stamina to an average adult one.
After doing some exercise, I took a bath and changed to my clothes today as I headed downstairs to cook some breakfast for my parents. As I knew that it would be for a while before we see each other again, I need to treasure our time together.
When my parents saw that I made breakfast, they were moved to have such a very good son. We then eat breakfast happily as we talk to each other. I also told them about me playing the new game and they told me that they don't mind as long as I won't do it excessively.
When it finally came to noon, thirty minutes before the game started, I look at my status first before playing the game by saying "Status"

As far as I can see, I am ready to go. I already have the necessary skills to survive in the game and even if I don't have any I can always learn it in the game.
I then turned to look at the NerveGear already set on my bed. This was bought by my parents before it had even begun to be sold in the market. My parents have some connections so they were able to buy one for me.
But how does it work exactly? With a quick look at fandom, I knew that...
...the NerveGear's high-density microwave transceivers are capable of accessing the user's brain, allowing it to send fake signals to the five senses of the user. The transceivers are not only capable of inducing fake sensory signals but can also block every movement command from the brain to the body, preventing the player from moving their body while in FullDive to avoid injuries. The transceivers are also capable of blocking sensory information from the body to the brain, thus, while using it, the player is completely insensate to the physical world.
It really is a cool technology and I can't seem to think why is that my previous world was so behind in technology that I can't seem to understand how does this world even research them. Is it because my previous world didn't have Akihiko Kayaba, no matter what it is, I am just glad to have another chance in life.
Now that I looked at my watch, I know that it is already time, so I put my NerveGear on my head and when the time strikes one pm. I said in a voice full of excitement.
"Link Start!"
