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 6⌟

I'm back at the fields once again, but I decided not to fight immediately but instead, I sat under a tree and opened the user interface to look at my player attributes.

SAO attributes are very different from other games, anyway, the attributes are.

Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Perception, Strength, and Willpower, players are given 120 attribute points and every time they level up they will receive another 3 points.

All my Attribute Points were still unused, no wonder died to those wolves so fast and I felt very slow when holding my sword,

"Now, which build should I go with?"

I could go with a balance build but frankly, I don't really like going balanced build, if possible, I want to have fast speed and powerful damage, as for being tanky? quite frankly, ever since I died two times, I seemed to have not feared death anymore.

How could I say this... death does not faze me anymore.

In the end, I decided to distribute my points like this.

Strength- 41(Attack Power, Stamina, Strength etc.)

Constitution- 6 (Health & Resistance)

Dexterity- 41 (Reflexes & Attack Speed)

Intelligence- 16 (General Knowledge and Learning Capabilities)

Willpower- 11 (Pain Tolerance and Crowd Control Resistance)

Perception- 26 (Senses & Reaction Time)

Yes, I didn't put much on the constitution, at least not for now, taking a deep breath, I pulled out my sword from its scabbard, somehow, it felt lighter than when I last held it, is it because of my new stats? well, whatever.

I turned my eyes and looked at the wolves in the fields, they are only a computer made of a lot of data but I wanted revenge, If I can't even defeat any of these low-level monsters, I might as well stop.

But I won't...

I charged towards the closest wolf and it noticed me too, it immediately bared its fangs and charged towards me, it pounced towards me and I gave it a swing of my sword.

*Swoosh! *Whimper!

The wolf whimpered from pain but I did not relax because my attack only dealt a little damage to its HP, it turned towards me and charged once again but this time its speed was much faster than before which surprised me.

When I came back to my senses it was already near me and bit my arm, groaning from pain, I immediately shook it away from my arm, but it didn't let go.

"That's what you want!?"

I roared and stabbed its head with my sword, but due to the angle, the sword also pierced my arm but I didn't care about it, I pierced its head with my sword taking a big chunk of its HP but it did not die yet., I let go of the sword and grabbed the wolf's jaws and forced it to open.

I was able to loosen it from its bite and immediately shook the wolf off with a kick on its belly which made it let go, it rolled on the ground a few times but I ignored it, but instead looked at my arm that I wasn't able to control anymore.

I grit my teeth and raised my arm and pulled it forcefully.

*Crack!

I heard the sound of my bone-popping, I looked at my arm that I was able to control and gave it a few squeezes, it's moving again, though it still hurts but that was better than being useless.

I then turned my attention back to the wolf who had been glaring at me, only half of its HP was left, this won't work, I need to do something.

"I need to use a skill"

I remembered the description of how to use skill in SAO, skills come from imagination, though, not the overpowered ones but as long as you know the way how your skill works, then you will be able to use it.

SAO boasts about its almost infinite skills, though not magic or other things, it's mostly related to sword skills.

"I hope this works"

Taking a deep breath I concentrated, I may not know if it's real but I have seen how it works many times, a skill that is not from this world but a very known one in my past life.

*Woooo!

The wolf seemed to get impatient and charged towards me fiercer than before.

I inhaled a lot of air inside my body that made my whole body feel full and tense.

"Total Concentration!"

*Swoosh!

I didn't avoid the wold that charged towards me but instead met up with it, its claws were ready to slash me into bits but everything in my eyes seemed to become slower than before, but I did not become faster but my brain only perceived things slowly.

Using these heightened senses, I only titled my head a little bit letting the claws get past me but it still scratched my cheeks, but I don't care, I will kill this son of a gun now!

"Mizu no kokyu- Ichi no kata: Minamo Giri!" (First Form: Surface Slash)

I swung my sword towards the wolf, the sword lit up in blue color, there was no water or anything but it was recognized as a skill by the SAO system, with a sharp smooth cut, the wolf turned into two pieces, its HP turning to zero.

*Slash!

[You have leveled up]

Breathing heavily, I felt ever so victorious, I can do this, I can clear this world and look for the answers I was looking for, I looked at my hands and clenched it tightly, I'm not a beta tester like Kirito, but I have seen the future and also have a cheat, does that make me the real Beater?

That sounds cringe...

But anyway, it seems like the players who were still in a state of madness in the town started to move, I waved my hand and looked at the town, I need to make my way into the next town this place will soon be flooded with tons of players.

I also noticed another person running not from afar in which I recognized as Kirito, the plot has finally started, while everyone fears death, I do not, I will grind this shit up until I clear it and maybe also look for Kayaba Akihiko who was hiding among the players.
