Accel World Vol 3 Chapter 11 (2/2)
For threeat that place
He got up at sunrise, and munched on the round bread thron froe that accompanied it sometimes had a heart eht jabs
For Haruyuki’s about 14 years of life, he had never experienced concentrating on one thing for this long time
No, it could be said that this time could not possibly exist in the real world The real body often get hungry, soon tired, and also had to go to school In the 1000 times accelerated time flow of the Unlimited Neutral Field, and then with the duel avatar that doesn’t know fatigue that this was a possible action
The light released by his fingertips, and the depth they ate into the wall, were in a range that he could not feel any increase However Haruyuki did not doubt that he was doing inal speed that his brain sent to the avatar, he repeated the same action 1000s, 10000s, and 100000s time
Haruyuki felt that this training was not so like «Suddenly true poaken one day» He realized he was ai that was built up with results that his eyes could not distinguish Siame in Uradually challenge the high score Concentration and accumulation There was no shortcut other than those
That’s right, probably Sky Raker aited at the top of the steel tower also, and standing on the very peak of accelerated world itself, «Red King» Niko and «Black King» Kuroyukihih this road
Right now, he could not even see the shadow of that person walking far ahead in the long, long road, but
‘I too someday, someday will definitely reach that place, I will show you’
When the sun set on sixth day, while looking at his right hand with fingers that were fully pierced through the thick steel, Haruyuki strongly decided that inside his chest
To be able to do the sa to the wall, took another half day
On the day that marked his one week visit to this world, close to noon time
He glared at the weak sunlight through the thick black clouds, and after thinking for a bit, Haruyuki finally decided to start his second climb There were only five or six hours till sunset, but he would not need to search for routes or backtrack due to running out of hand holds on the rock in the «Wilderness» stage If he just cliht be possible for hihtfall
“All right!”
With a ‘Bang’ hit against both sides of his helmet for psyche, Haruyuki threw out his first thrust
With a ‘Shukiiiin!’ clear sound and path of white light that was created, his hand sword deeply pierced the wall
Using his firht hand to hold his body up, this tiher
Speed Speed of light He only thought about that
Eventually, Haruyuki stopped even thinking about the word «Speed» Inside his brain, only the iht existed
Thrust Pull his body up Concentrate Thrust again
Since the fingers need to be as horizontal as possible for the piercing, one action only gained hi that to cliive at least 1110 thrusts on the wall
However Haruyuki just absorbedly, and singleat the top or botto about past and future, so only the wall in front of hiertips became his whole world
Thrust Thrust Pierce Pierce
His hands were already releasing a laser like bright light The depth that his hand sent in was going deeper and deeper, nored that and just thrust, and climbed
Haruyuki went into abnor his selfinfor, the steel wall also eventually disappeared, and in the darkness that was everywhere, only the flash released by his hands blinked alternately ——
No
He could see so
Far in the darkness, very, very far away, there was a water surface like blue sway
Portal? There was soolden shi+ne, he could only see the silhouette, but for certainly —— someone
Haruyuki wanted to break the dense darkness with his two hand thrusts, to go to that place He was being called, he felt
“You are who?”
A deep echo acco to that, so was ——
At that time, a faint vibration was transmitted to his body, and Haruyuki opened his eyes with a snap
In front of his eyes, was the same bluish black steel wall The sky was already painted a deep red Sunset was nearing
However, a light other than the sun reached him from the east, so Haruyuki looked there Just then, a seven color aura ca’ like bell sounds It was a «Transition»
But this time, Haruyuki did not panic
Similar to before, he continued toup, he could feel that the top edge was right above The aura, as if it intended to throw Haruyuki off, closed in at a breakneck speed Snapping and ru recombined filled the world
Thrust Lift up Thrust Lift up
At the same time as the next thrust, his vieas covered by the seven color shi+ne
Flicked away by the fingertip of an invisible giant, Silver Crow’s elegant body was instantly bloay into the sky
The top of the tower that he could soon see went far away The virtual gravity, licked its lips and extended its hands towards Haruyuki ——
However
“Shaa”
With a small exhale, Haruyuki released his final thrust from the air at the wall two meters ahead
A ‘Shuraaaaan!’ light sound echoed, the pure white light sword extended, deeply piercing the wall that he should not have been able to reach
At the sa positive, Haruyuki used that as support, and ju inside the aura, what he landed on with a crunch was ——
On top of the sky garden grass that he stepped on about one week ago
“Welcome back, Karasu-san”
Right above Haruyuki who hung his head while standing on one knee, he heard a soft sound
While resisting the sudden attack of fierce lethargy, Haruyuki lifted up his head with difficulty
The sky color avatar sitting on the silver wheelchair, looked down at Haruyuki with a smile
“You returned much faster than I predicted As expected of a «Child» selected by her”
In reaction to those words, Haruyuki whispered back an unrelated reply
“It should not have reached”
So of the last thrust he released, was very strongly burned there
“It was a distance that my short arm absolutely could not reach But, I believed that it would reach no, I knew that it would reach If that that could be said to be «Mind Power», then”
Here he finally looked into Sky Raker’s eyes, and continued
“That was not so like «Control Power» More more deeper level connected to this world that is to say to say”
After searching his vast vocabulary with difficulty, Haruyuki somehow put what he wanted to say into words
“That is to say, so the facts»”
“Yes, exactly”
Sky Raker’s sers of both hands, then said in a more serious tone
“«Overwrite» That truly is the one word that is the essence of mind power However you will not understand it if you heard it as a word You can only experience it”
“Over write”
To Haruyuki who repeated that with raspy sound, Sky Raker quietly nodded
“The Incarnate Systee type control built into the Brain Burst prograinally To support the action command type control, it was just a system to supplement the avatar ly sent out iram constraint, and materialized The wheels that should not turn, turned, and the arm that should not reach, reached Firm will, mind power, can overwrite events”
Those words, to Haruyuki who should have already learned the beginning stage of the «Incarnate Systee sense of awe
Half year already passed since he began playing this gaaae power that is the strength of «mind» matter in any of them at all
‘Squeak’, the wheelchair ht in front of Haruyuki who squat there while being struck by deep emotion
To the right hand that was held out, Haruyuki hesitantly caught it He was pulled up with unexpected amount of force, and stood up unsteadily
Sky Raker re he did not expect
“With this, I have nothing more to teach you”
“Whatt”
Sing a breath, Haruyuki shook his head sideways many times in reaction
“Bu, but, I aht! That is far froht”
“Didn’t I say it, Karasu-san That I, could not reach the sky”
After calently shook her head
“Just maybe, someday you can fly in the sky with just mind power However, that will probably take a tre in this world, for perhaps ten years”
“Ten”
Haruyuki was speechless, he ground his inner teeth with a creak —— and said
“Does doesn’t ain with that, then I will”
“You must not”
Suddenly, a harsh sound interrupted what he was going to say
“Half year, one year, with that amount you can still return However a person who lives in this world for ten years, can no longer return to reality”
“Whatt”
“The real world will no longer et friends, and just shut hih In the Unlimited Neutral Field, there are no ser duel or train, just shut in here to escape froame, Brain Burst anyway?”
The sudden question, htly hesitate, then he soon took a breath and answered
“To to becoether with that person to clear this game To knohat is ahead, I am”
“Then, you should not continue to stay here If you don’t return, eventually you will beco You will only wish for the continuation of the accelerated world If you don’t want to lose what you are feeling now please return, to reality”
“Bu, but I I”
Moving his head sharply, Haruyuki shouted
“I want to fly! No once again, I have to, fly”
To Haruyuki who slurass, he was supported by two extended arms
He was then held tightly to Sky Raker’s chest like that, and while all his body froze due to the iht ear
“It’s okay I will give you s”
“What”
“My enhanced armament, «Gale Thruster» The current you should be able to use it towards the height that I could not reach, you surely should be able to fly there”
For Haruyuki who al under the white dress that did not seee his thoughts and asked in a shaking sound
“Wh, why Why, do you, have to do so much? It, it’s a bit late, but you are Ash Roller’s «Parent», he and I are”
“Friends Isn’t that right?”
The instantly released words, again made him breathless
“That kid, when he was dueling with you, hoon, or lost, always happily talked toEven when under different masters That’s why, for that kid, I want you to fly once more”
“”
After a long, long silence, Haruyukito say
“Thank you, very much”
At the sah way too late, how much his attitude in the previous duel with Ash Roller disappointed him —— no hurt him, he now found out There was no way he could put the different feelings swirling around inside his chest to words, so he just repeated the short word again and again
“Definitely, definitely, definitely”
“Yes Definitely, you should be able to overcoarden, Karasu-san The next time, ill meet in the real world”
“Wha whatt!?”
Lifting his head after hearing some unthinkable words, he saw a se
“It’s a ive an enhanced armament, either use «Shop» to mediate, or direct connection in reality If that was sold, it would have a tree that the Burst Points you have would never be able to afford”
“So, so that valuable”
“It’s fine, that kid would also want to fly again Place and ti 7am in real time, in front of the shi+njuku station west entrance, the”
Haruyuki knew about the burger shop that Sky Raker specified, and even though he was dumbfounded by the quick development, he nodded With that time, there would be plenty of time to make it to school
“Good So then, huh?”
Releasing the ar to pull Haruyuki’s body up, slightly tilted her head Her fingertip poked a few times at the center the Silver Crow’s back that had lost the wings
While resisting the ticklish feeling, Haruyuki also tilted his head
“Ah, is there so?”
“No —— Nothing There, please go”
This time she helped Haruyuki stand up, and Sky Raker on the wheelchair nodded with a smile
No knowing how to express his gratitude, Haruyuki bowed as deeply as possible, and said with a tre sound
“Thank you very much, Sky Raker-san The stew and bread, were delicious”
And then, before she realized that he was crying under the helmet, he turned around behind, carved the sunset of Unlimited Neutral Field’s new shape into his deepportal in that center
After waking up on his bed in the real world, Haruyuki continued to lay under the sheets for a while
Eventually he glanced at the clock, the time was still only 9:10p time The memory of the taste of the pizza that he should have eaten before the dive, also completely disappeared
Just ten minutes —— over there only one week passed, he felt this much separation If that becahten strongly, and suddenly a sharp pain caht cheek
He should not have forgotten the reason for that pain
He said so hit
“I should apologize”
While touching his cheek with his fingertip, he ize, so they could onceone and only partners, and take back as robbed no s
Haruyuki removed his Neuro Linker, set his wake up time on the clock at his bed’s top board, then closed his eyes
At that ue fro back, and he fell into the abyss of deep sleep like that
