Chapter 620

He stared at Asuna as she finished the steak about the size of an adult’s palm in mere seconds . He can’t see her hidden expression through her hood . It didn’t help that he knew about her true appearance from watching the original work, he just couldn’t imagine an elegant girl like that chowing down food like she’s a starved refugee .

<hr>

Wait, did she have a bottomless pit element to her character?

Wu Yan suppressed his urge to laugh . He took out another piece of steak and he gave it to Asuna .

Asuna received it with open arms, ignoring the hot temperature of the wood, she chomped down on his meat . Granted, she slowed down this time, unlike the first time she did it…

The atmosphere between the two cooled down into an awkward silence . Meanwhile, the sound of Asuna chewing on meat reverberated between them .

While one of them went to town with the food, the other stared at the night sky as he enjoyed this serenity . The two finished their steaks quietly without saying much .

“Thanks…”

A tiny voice came out of Asuna’s hood . The noise around them made it hard to hear her but Wu Yan caught her words anyway .

He chuckled while shaking his head . Then, he grabbed Heaven Gazer by his side as he turned around to leave…

She saw him leaving and she accidentally leaked her own thought .

“Why don’t you want to party up with other players?…”

Wu Yan stopped and he thought about her question for a bit . He gave her a sarcastic smile .

“Maybe, I just can’t find the right person to party with…”

Since his arrival in Silvaria and acquisition of the System, Wu Yan walked a path different from other humans .

<hr>

He wasn’t lonely on this path to the top . He had Hinagiku, Mikoto, Kotori, and the other girls to accompany him as he made his way there . In fact, Wu Yan reckoned that he’s quite lucky in this regard .

In this world, there is no profound way, no supernatural powers, it’s just him and a super-advanced virtual world . Sure, the players around him can use skills that resembled special abilities, but, in the end, they are just humans…

When he said he can’t find the right person to party with, he meant being alone in this boring world…

With powers unfathomable to the humans of this world, he walked, for the first time in a world, alone and isolated . Loneliness was inevitable .

If Wu Yan somehow returned to his homeworld, the real world he came from, he would go bonkers in no time, he was sure .

When his words entered Asuna’s ears, the words took on a different meaning .

Asuna’s interpretation was that Wu Yan lived a life stained with the blood of many . He spoke like he’s someone who can’t fit in as a human anymore .

In other words, Wu Yan felt like there’s no friend he can talk to with an open heart .

Well, she more or less got half of his words’ true meaning right .

“You can party up with us if you want to…”

Asuna was surprised by her own self . She started asking herself,

Wait, what am I talking about?

Wu Yan told her party member that he wasn’t interested in partying up .

Wu Yan was also startled by her words .

“No thanks, I can do it on my own…”

Asuna started frowning in displeasure .

She never invited anyone to join her party . Even back in the real world, countless people would jump at the chance to be invited by her, where does this guy get off turning her down like that?

“Do you think you stand a chance against the boss by yourself?”

Asuna said with a stern look .

“You look strong but that’s a Floor boss, do you really have the ability to handle it?”
