Aincrad: Ascendance

A huge castle made of stone and steel floating in an endless sky. That was all this world was. It took a vagarious group of craftsmen one month to survey the place; the diameter of the base floor was about 10 kilometers — large enough to fit the entirety of Setagaya-ku within. Above, there were 100 floors stacking straight upwards; its sheer size was unbelievable. It was impossible to even guess how much data it consisted of. Inside, there were a couple of large cities along with countless small-scale towns and villages, forests and plains, and even lakes. Only one stairway linked each floor to another, and the stairways existed in dungeons where large numbers of monsters roamed; so discovering and getting through was no easy matter. However, once someone made a breakthrough and arrived at a city on the upper floor, the «Teleport Gates» there and of every city on the lower floors would be connected making it possible for anyone to move freely through these levels. With these conditions, the huge castle had been steadily conquered for two years. The current front line is the 74th floor. The name of the castle was «Aincrad», a world of battles with swords that continued floating and had engulfed approximately six thousand people. Otherwise known as… «Sword Art Online» -*-*--*-*-*- Updates are from monday to friday, so total of 5 chapters a week, extra chapter every 200 stones. Source of this fanfic is from the Novel, and I also added some elements from different worlds just to add some twist. I dont own the cover or any character from SAO, this is a fanfic I made for fun dont take it seriously.

⌜Chapter 72⌟

*Swooosh!

Tanaka returned back to the empty space and couldn't see anything but screens in front of him showing the other players who were still fighting, it looked like his match ended faster than anyone else.

"Well, I guess I'll have to wait for the next match"

Tanaka sighed and then looked around the floating screens, he first found Sinon, her match hadn't ended yet and it seems like she and her opponent hadn't seen each other yet, Sinon's battle style is simple, as a sniper, she only has to hide, be aware of her surroundings then look for any signs of her opponent, then when she sees the sign of her opponent, she just has to be patient and once the opponent moves.

*Boom!

It was a sure win.

"Hmmm, snipers have a very fast bullet and also a little hard to spot since snipers are required to be good at hiding, I guess I can only rely on my instincts to find them"

Tanaka commented, he then looked at the others and saw that even though separated, Sora and Shiro are winning their game and didn't have any problems at all.

"Hmm, I guess my training for them worked well"

Tanaka nodded before continuing on in looking at the other players, but he decided to close his eyes a little later as there was nothing interesting, he still have to wait for other matches to end before his next match started.

The next match is in a simple stage, it wasn't like the last stage where there's a lot of buildings to hide, this stage is ruined, there is only a single destroyed building that turned into rubbles and some pillars around, the map is also quite small.

"I guess, I can't zip around then, boring, I'll just end it as fast as possible"

Tanaka waited for the barrier to go down before rushing forward, in such a small stage, places a player could hide is limited and so he narrowed all of the places down a player could hide, and immediately, he found the player hiding behind the pillar.

*Swooosh!

Using the light saber, Tanaka slashed his lightsaber towards the pillar and once the lightsaber made contact, it cut through it like a hot knife, the lightsaber proceeded and the poor player hiding behind the player didn't even have the time to react before he got cut along with the pillar.

[You Win]

"Easy, wait, maybe I should aim for the fastest kill"

Tanaka smirked before he disappeared from the arena, for the upcoming matches, Tanaka easily defeated all of them, and noticeably his kill time is also getting faster and faster until it the fastest clear he had is 3 seconds, going further than that is difficult.

The match continued until it was only the last two players, and his last opponent didn't surprise Tanaka at all, no, it was not Sinon, nor Sora, it was Shiro.

"Hoh, you actually defeated your brother?"

"I will also defeat you"

Shiro raised her gun and pointed it at him, she knew how powerful this person in front of her was.

"I see, then let me see"

Tanaka smiled before taking a step forward.

*Bang! *Bang!

Shiro immediately fired her gun the moment she saw Tanaka step forward.

*Swooosh!

Tanaka tilted his head to the left to dodge the one aimed at him and his lightsaber to block the one aimed at his body.

"Is that it?"

"No"

Tanaka then looked at Shiro and saw her charging towards him, it seemed like she knew it was futile in hiding and she only has a chance to defeat him by facing him.

*Ratatatatata!

Shiro started firing her gun at rapid fire while charging at Tanaka, but all of her bullets were either getting dodged or blocked, it was really frustrating to fight someone like this because she made a thousand tactics inside her head but all of them were getting destroyed by every move of Tanaka.

But Shiro didn't give up, there must be something she can do, she looked around the place, the stage was an open desert with some ruined buildings, the place was quite big too and they have a lot of places to maneuver.

'I can tire him out, I have a lot of bullets'

To block her bullets, Tanaka must be using a lot of his concentration on that, though, he looked like he was walking in the park, even for Shiro who has god-like processing brain, she won't be able to last much longer if she was in Tanaka's place.

And so she started gaining distance while firing far away.

"Oh, a nice strategy, you want to tire me out eh?"

Tanaka couldn't help but smile.

"But unfortunately, without Sora, you are no different from the others I fought"

Tanaka smiled before he pulled out a pistol from his waist, Shiro who was running away immediately felt dread as Tanaka pointed it towards her, then pulled the trigger.

*Kachik! *Boom!

Like a cannon that has been fired, a power recoil came from the gun that blasted a powerful shockwave and Shiro who was moving didn't even have the time to react as in the next moment, a powerful explosion came from beside her, and her health points draining at a fast rate and finally dropping to zero.

[You win!]

Tanaka put the gun near his face and blew on the smoking muzzle of his pistol.

After that, he disappeared from the arena and this time, instead of appearing in the waiting area, Tanaka was now standing back in the waiting booth, Sinon was sitting there looking at him.

"What is with your gun? is that really a pistol? its firepower is much powerful than a sniper"

She couldn't help but ask.

"Oh this? I got this from defeating the world boss"

Tanaka pulled out his gun and showed it to Sinon.

"You were the one who defeated the world boss!?"

Sinon couldn't help but be in shock when she heard him.

[Battle Royale will soon be starting, Participants, please be ready!]
