Chapter 761: The red figure lurking within (2/2)

Kirito stared at the door intently while inhaling deeply.

”The last floor, we are finally here...”

Klein said with a grim look, he tightened his fists.

”If we pa.s.s this, we are going to win...”

Souta raised his head with heavy breathing...

”Once we defeat the jerk inside, we are all free!”

Agil chuckled.

Asuna grabbed the rapier at her waist, she grabbed Wu Yan's hand and she queezed it.

Wu Yan turned towards her, he saw her warm gaze and he responded in kind. He gave her a resolute declaration.

”Believe me, I am going to make sure you return to the real world...”

Asuna gave him a very bright smile. She didn't care that the other players were watching them, she gave Wu Yan a big hug while mumbling.

”I believe you, but, don't you ever forget the promise we made...”

Wu Yan grinned with a nod. He closed his eyes to focus. Then, his deep red eyes shone with a brilliant glint when he opened them again.

As the other players watched, he gave the door a big push.

Creak...

The door creaked open in front of the tense raid players. They took out their weapons in sync. Some players drew crosses in front of them as they prayed for divine help.

Alas, no G.o.d, not even Jesus can help them. The only G.o.d they are going to find is the creator G.o.d who is waiting for them inside.

”Wh-what...”

Other than Wu Yan who knew what to expect with his lowered head, the other players immediately petrified with shock when they saw the scene inside.

Sitting atop the throne in the deepest part of the Boss Room is a familiar figure. He sat there in a gallant pose with his hand on his iconic sword and s.h.i.+eld. The cape attached to his red knight armor danced with the wind. His blonde ponytail also danced in tune with the gale. He looked a bona-fide king.

The players couldn't think properly when faced with such a confusing twist. They couldn't understand why this familiar red figure is waiting for them in that place. The Knights of the Blood Oath and Asuna looked at the figure with eyes of deep shock and emotional instability.

The red figure slowly raised his head as he addressed the crowd with a cordial smile.

His voice came along with the gust.

”Welcome to the Red Jade Palace!”
