Chapter 678
Aincrad 48th Floor, Lindarth, Lisbeth’s blacksmith shop .
Kirito and Lis stood there as Wu Yan and Asuna grinned at them in a very friendly manner . They exchanged a look .
“When did you two arrive?”
Kirito tilted his head in confusion .
“Just now . ”
The two replied at the same time .
“Just now…”
Kirito started sweating .
“Then what’s with those weird looks on your faces?”
“Nothing…”
The two are definitely up to something .
Kirito’s lip twitched while Lis felt a bit unsettled .
It’s weird how they are behaving so suspiciously .
Wu Yan and Asuna looked at each other and they couldn’t help but grin again . They were giggling ambiguously in front of Kirito and Lis . The weird mood also dissipated when the two of them laughed .
Moving his eyes downwards, he saw the sword in Kirito’s hand and his eyes glimmered .
It’s an aqua-colored one-handed sword with a very elegant design . Its blade is white and slender although not as thin as Asuna’s rapier . The grip is silver with a tinge of blue mixed in . Adorned with an aquamarine at the center of the handguard, the sword looked a bit extravagant .
Like his Heaven Gazer, the blade’s crossguard is exactly perpendicular to its grip . If the crossguard of the Heaven Gazer is a practical bar, the crossguard of this sword looked like a pair of wings . Ignoring the practical usage, for now, it looked way better than his Heaven Gazer .
The White Sword, Dark Repulser .
It’s a sword forged by Lisbeth . A sword that is on par with Kirito’s Elucidator . Compared to Heaven Gazer who he painstakingly upgraded into its current state, it’s still comparable .
In short, this sword is beyond the curve .
He grinned and he continued .
“Looks like my other weapon is ready…”
Kirito bitterly laughed while Lisbeth froze up .
“Another weapon? You mean this one?”
Lisbeth glanced at Kirito who was bitterly smiling and she turned towards Wu Yan with a surprised look .
“You commissioned this weapon?”
Lis was wondering why Kirito needed another weapon when he already has Elucidator . Upgrading his weapon is better than getting a new one right?
There are probably better weapons further down the road but with the levels of the players in this game . They won’t be able to use any weapon better than Elucidator given their low levels .
That is why Lisbeth was bewildered by why Kirito kept pressing her for another weapon . She a.s.sumed Kirito wanted it to complete some kind of quest . It looks like Kirito wanted Dark Repulser as a gift .
“Do-don’t tell me you want this sword?”
Lisbeth started panicking .
She infused her emotions into this sword because she intended to give this sword to the one she loved .
Of course, she couldn’t sit still when it looks like the confession gift she gave to Kirito is about to fall into another person’s hand .
Kirito read Lis’ thoughts . Judging by the glare she gave him, he knew better than to do what was originally promised . He bitterly smiled and he continued .
Lifting the sword, he nodded .
“This weapon wasn’t originally commissioned because I wanted it…”
Lis looked even more anxious . Her face turned gloomy and she wanted to say something when Kirito interjected .
“But, that changed…”
He unstrapped Elucidator and he threw it over to Wu Yan .
“You can have that one!”
“Har?”
He couldn’t help but look at Kirito with a pair of wide eyes .
“Are you okay with this? Isn’t this your favorite sword?”
