17 Background and Preparations
Kuro and the others in the living room relaxing. After asking Sys about their background on this world Kuro explained to the group about their identities in this world.
18 years old, just graduated from high school, All of them had the same except for Shizuka, Rika and Asami. They all live in Kuro's house whose parents died two years ago and inherited the large mansion and a large sum of money.
Kuro took all of them out to tour, he brought out two cars from his inventory with his bike from hotd that was already modified. Saeko the lucky winner of the rock paper scissor was together with Kuro on his bike.
They went around Tokyo to have some fun and did some shopping. While going around Kuro also made sys gather data about VR and techs that his world does not have. He also had sys gather info on a certain family and those they work with.
Getting back home he noticed that the house beside them is familiar. A few seconds of thinking he finally remembered it was the house of the Kirigaya family.
Kuro: let's go to our world first once we get inside the house. Let's ask if some wants to play the death game too~
Saeko was excited about playing a game that focuses on swords and she was sure her mother and father would be excited too. Once they returned back inside the castle they immediately gathered everyone.

Kuro: that is all i gathered from outside. I will leave some clones to help develop our own VR device and the VR world but only when you are stuck in a certain part you can ask me some questions. I don't want you guys being too reliant on me.
Kuro being a former gamer wanted them to challenge him with their games. Being part of the game creators takes some of the fun and surprises.
Yuriko: we will gather all the people capable of helping in this project.

After some talk about the project Kuro proceeded in asking who wanted to join playing the death game.
Kenji: Kuro why do you call it a death game? I thought it is called Sword Art Online?
Kuro: the main creator of the game will turn it into a death game you see...
Giving them some information they now understand why he calls it that. Knowing that a stupid machine won't affect them even if they die in the game was not a surprise for them, in the years of understanding their new bodies they knew how strong and durable it is.
Seventeen people agreed to come with Kuro. Busujima family, Miyamoto family, Igou Family, Komuro(a/n: Miku Yuuki is included in the Komuro family) and Takagi family except for Umi and Yuriko, Shizuka, Rika, Kohta and Asami.

A few days passed and Kuro already prepared twenty gears incase someone wants to join they would have extras. They invited the Kirigaya family for dinner and met the whole family.
The emo being an emo was quiet the whole time even when the male group tried to talk to him he says a few words and the conversation dies.
Suguha was shy at first but got used to them. Mentioning that she practiced kendo Saeko asked her a lot of questions then had an appointment tomorrow to have a spar.
.

Next day morning Kuro was with Saeko to watch them spar. They are currently stretching and will exercise a bit for warm up.
Going into their position facing each other they took the standard kendo stance waiting for Kuro's signal.
Once Kuro gave the signal they immediately moved, their shinai clashed and Saeko deflects Suguha's shinai and destroyed her posture making it easy for her to hit her shoulder.
Sparing with Saeko, Suguha improves little by little with either Kuro or Saeko giving her advice.
Kuro: you absorb our advice like a sponge Suguha-chan. You are really talented~
Saeko: yes. If you keep improving like this maybe you can make me fight seriously someday.
Suguha blushed because of the compliments and was happy. They invited Suguha to have lunch at their place, of course they called the EMO but he declined.
.
.
A few more days passed and they managed to convince Suguha to play SAO with them. Kuro already prepared a lot of clones that changed their appearance to protect and monitor their bodies when they play.
Of course they will make sure Suguha won't be taken to the hospital. They will also offer to the Kirigaya family to have the EMO be placed in the house.
They made a clinic like facility in the basement to make it more legit using the medical equipments and medicines Kuro had in his inventory.
Kuro also had Sugou Nobuyuki be destroyed socially and financially. He had 100 clones monitor anyone that could do anything similar to what Sugou did in the Anime.
He also instructed his clones to monitor Yuuki Asuna's parents to make sure they don't do anything stupid. If they really did something that affects his future girl they will experience what he did to Sugou.
He can just fix it later or just plainly offer them to come to his world once they lose everything. Eternal youth and do anything they want as long as they don't break any rules, who would reject those.

Kuro is currently at the castle kitchen baking some cake, he personally cooks and bake if he had time or not being lazy. They took Suguha to their world when she promised not to tell anyone, and it's not like they will believe her if she did~
The group took Suguha for a tour earlier and now resting in the lounge of the castle while they wait for Kuro to finish Making the snacks. The excited girl asked them some questions about this world and about them.
They answered truthfully and now the girls is sad when she heard what happened to their world. Suguha also saw the statues around the city and most of them are Kuro's.
Suguha: hey why does Kuro have a lot of statues around the city? Even you guys have some.
Shizuka: because a lot of people here got saved by Kuro~ they idolize him and worship him~
Saeko: we received.....
Explaining the pieces and what they do or represent, the girl is now dumbfounded that Kuro has a lot of wives. She asked more question until Kuro came in with a lot of cakes. While eating Suguha asked
Suguha: you own this world and you are like a king here, why do you still cook? Can't you just order some people to do it for you?
Kuro: it is a hobby of mine Suguha. I personally love cooking so I do it when I have time. Having people enjoy what i make makes me happy~
Kuro said while feeding Rika some cake. Suguha just nods while eating, she was thinking that Kuro is too perfect to be true.
Having enjoyed enough they returned to the mansion and Kuro escorted Suguha back while bringing two whole cakes for the Kirigaya family.
After giving the cakes he talked with Mr. and Mrs. Kirigaya for a bit he went back home. A clone informs Kuro that Asuna's parents arranged another marriage partner for Asuna. He thought 'I see that you won't change your ways, let this be a good lesson for the two of you~'
Kuro informs all the clones assigned to the Yuuki Family to slowly make them fall just a little bit below a middle class family once the game starts and protect Asuna when needed.
A few days passed and the game will start tomorrow. Relaxing for today they spent the whole day with Alice since it will take some time before she can talk to them again. She was ok with it since a clone will stay with her.
Playing some video games, eating, playing with water guns in the yard Alice was enjoying every second of the day. When night came they went back to the castle and slept with Alice, they could not have some "fun" tonight.
