Seeing Asuna, who was standing majestically while staring at him with radiant eyes, Rozen once again sighed in his heart.
(Now that I look at her again, it’s hard to believe she was that rapier user behind the hooded cape.)
Despite feeling emotional on the inside, Rozen remained cool outside. Just as Asuna said, he was as laid back as ever.
“Surely you didn’t send me an instant message telling me to come here just reminsisce about the past, right?”
Rozen said casually.
In SAO, there were two types of messages.
The first one was normal messages, which could be sent to any Player who was registered as the sender’s friend. However, Players couldn’t receive messages while they were in the Labyrinth or other places with restrictions like Labyrinth.
The second was instant messages, which could be sent to any Player as long as the sender knew the correct spelling for the receiver’s character name. However, instant messages couldn’t be received if the receiver wasn’t on the same Floor as the sender, or if the sender was in places with restrictions.
Rozen had quite a lot of Players on his friends. In addition to Kirito and other Red Wings’ members, he also had Argo, Klein, Agil, and other Players he was friendly with registered in his friend list.
However, Rozen obviously didn’t register Asuna, who was destined to astound all Players in SAO as a friend.
Therefore, Asuna had to send an instant message, asking Rozen to come here.
It was not surprising that Asuna knew the correct spelling of Rozen’s character name. They once fought side by side, after all. In fact, it was odd if she didn’t know.
Of course, Asuna didn’t call Rozen to that place just to ask for his acknowledgement, let alone reminiscing about the past.
Asuna called Rozen with only one thing in mind.
“This is the order from leader.”
Asuna ignored Rozen’s laid back and irritating attitude and went straight to the point.
“Guild leader wants to see you.”
Rozen frowned slightly upon hearing Asuna’s words.
“Leader?”
Of course, the leader that Asuna referred to here was Knights of the Blood’s leader.
“He wants to see me?”
Rozen could not help but laugh.
It’d be a lie if Rozen said he wasn’t interested in Knights of the Blood’s leader. Setting aside other things that Players had achieved, he managed to recruit Asuna, who seemed hard to approach, along with other Players that managed to surprise the Clearers. So, of course, he was curious about who this person was.
In addition, Rozen still remembered how highly Argo valued him by saying that Knights of the Blood’s leader and vice-leader were strong enough to be the top 3 Players.
Rozen believed half of it after seeing Asuna. Even the Sword Skill she showed during the 1st Floor was enough to surprise Rozen, and if Knights of the Blood’s leader was as strong as Asuna, or even possibly stronger, how was Rozen not curious about him?
Rozen wouldn’t mind to see him in person.
But…
“He’s the one who wants to meet me, right? Then he should come and meet me himself, isn’t that how courtesy?”
Rozen said with a playful tone with a smile.
