The boss of the first floor

Luke leaped away from the monster and turned to Kirito, "Why did you yell stop?" He asked, holding out his shield to block one of the minions' attack before slashing it with his sword.

"Look up?" Kirirto yelled, pointing at the ceiling to warn the other players, they all looked up and their faces went into shock almost instantly.

There were other players tied up with black vines around their necks, their health bar was still reading but they were in a paralyzed state.

"What the hell?" Jacko, another player welding a marchet, spoke out.

Luke frowned, "Look that doesn't matter, if we kill the boss now, we can save them later" Luke yelled.

The rest of the players were on board with this, they went back to their formation, and while the tanks blocked the attack from the boss, the rest would switch and attack.

Kirito stood there still looking at the ceiling, 'Something isn't right, why keep them there? Could this be?' He thought to himself, different reasons kept rushing through his head.

"Hey, watch out?" Asuna yelled, she pushed him out of the way, before blocking the attack from the minion.

She gave it a boot before cutting it with her blade, it's health bar dropped to zero almost instantly before it glitched out and disappeared.

Asuna turned to face Kirito who was just getting up from the ground, "Do you want to die?" She yelled, staring at him from behind.

"Of course not… come on let's go help the others" He ran toward the monster.

Asuna sighed, "Why does he remind me so much of Kazuya?" She slapped her cheeks and ran after Kirito.

Kirito entered the fight zone, using his sword, he blocked the blade strike of the monster and sent an attack of his own with his sword lighting up.

The monster moved back after its life bar dropped to the red bar.

"Nice job" Luke smiled, walking toward Kirito, "Now, all we have to do is finish the job".

The other players began surrounding the boss, each one lighting up their weapons for an attack.

The boss suddenly gave a loud scream and some of the players above started screaming, their health bar was going down fast while the boss was increasing.

"No way, he's absorbing the player's hp!" Kirito voiced out, "Of course my dad added pain censors, damn it!" He thought to himself.

"Everybody, fall back, change of plans!" Luke yelled, they all gathered around him as they tried to come up with a solution while the boss was powering up.

The boss had a barrier around it while it just went on one knee and waited for its health bar to be filled.

Kirito didn't join the sudden meeting, 'This is way complicated, if you attack the boss, it will try to regenerate, which also means you indirectly kill the players, I doubt anyone would want to have an orange cursor floating on their head, I mean you do get the orange cursor right? I wished I watched the anime...'.

The team suddenly scattered and they began surrounding the monsters, Luke walked over to Kirito, "Why didn't you join in on the planning?" Luke asked.

"Because it's pointless, there's only one way to kill the boss, and I doubt anyone here is willing to take that risk," Kirito replied.

"We won't know if we don't try," Luke smiled, "We're going to try cutting whatever is tying the players up there, the others will distract the boss, do you mind helping?" Luke asked.

"Sure," Kirito reluctantly replied.

They all began attacking the boss while Luke and some other players climbed the wall behind the boss.

But after some time, the boss began draining the health bar of the players regardless of whether its health bar went low or not.

It dropped its sword and brought out a double-handed blade, leaping to the sky and rotating its body, its moves were unpredictable even for Kirito.

The boss sliced most of the players that were on the wall, sending them back to the ground; some of them got so badly damaged that they died instantly.

The boss's bar was so little yet it was still causing them a lot of trouble. Luke laid his back on the wall, he looked at his health bar and saw that it was almost near to the end.

Luke chuckled, "Of all the places to die, not the first floor, that's barely anything" Luke used his sheild to struggle to his feet.

The boss landed on the ground and began attacking the other players, its agility and strength had increased exponentially.

Kirito stood in the middle of the boss fight and slowly stretched out his sword, "Enough, if Killing you turns me red, then so be it!".

Kirito launched himself toward the boss, he picked up another sword from the ground and threw it at the monster's eye before moving close to it.

He wanted to strike the boss but it was faster and Kirito's reaction couldn't keep up, "Damn it, I'm screwed" He thought to himself.

A girl's rage scream was heard from his back, Asuna came in, blocking the blade attack with her weapon, "Go!" She yelled.

Kirito tightened his grip on his sword, giving out a strong scream as he sent his sword straight to the boss's neck.

The boss's hp dropped to Zero and it disappeared, Kirito landed on the ground, breathing heavily, and suddenly a notification popped up in front of him.

∆

Exp: 11/12

Coll: 567

Item: Black wear.

∆

Kirito tapped the notification and it went away, standing to his feet he noticed he was suddenly surrounded by players.

"What the hell was that?" One of the players yelled.

Kirito stared at them confused, "What do you mean-"

"You had this kinda strength and you hid it? You could have saved a lot of lives, what the hell?" The players yelled.

'Is this guy for real?' Kirito thought to himself, sterning his face before he gave a reply, "Look men I don't know what you going on about, but-"

"Of course, you don't, it isn't unfair enough that you get to look like Kirito, but you also get a freaking unique skill" The player yelled again.

"I wouldn't be surprised if he's the creator's son or something" Another player uttered.

The whole place went quiet and they all began throwing hateful looks at Kirito.

"Of course, that makes a lot of sense, why won't the creator of Sao give his son the mc's face, I bet the death thing doesn't apply to him"

'Are you kidding me? They haven't said a single thing that made sense… am I supposed to call this jealousy, I shouldn't reveal I'm Seka's son, for her sake' Kirito thought to himself, looking at Asuna who kept a cool look on trying not to be phased by the situation.

"Believe what you want, I don't care" Kirito uttered, he began walking to the entrance that led up to the second floor.

"So you think you're a big shot now uhn? Just you wait, you'll see what being a true gamer is all about!".

Kirito ignored and just kept on walking, 'I have to be careful from now on, I can't be careless.
