Sword Art Online Crossover: They're all close friends, how did I become a player?

Chapter 194 Why do latecomers come first?

The two then had a blast exploring the zoo, and Hozuki finally learned what Kapibala, the creature Yu Bai had mentioned, really was.

"Has this animal always been like this?"

Hozuki, wearing a beret that cleverly concealed the demon horns on his forehead, turned to Yu Bai and pointed to the capybara standing leisurely on the grass, asking him a question.

"Yes, how does it feel? Doesn't it make you feel calm?" Yu Bai nodded and responded with a smile.

"It's quite peaceful, almost too peaceful," Hozuki said thoughtfully.

"It feels like it would be perfect to put on King Yama's desk, but... never mind, putting it there might slow down King Yama's work."

And that Tibetan fox, let's pack them up and send them to hell too. I just wonder how long they'll live, and if they'll come down sooner?

Hozuki stroked his chin, already pondering where in Hell would be most suitable to place Kapibala and the Tibetan fox.

In terms of feelings, did you skip the part that you can't buy?

Finally, thanks to Yu Bai's efforts, Hozuki's idea of ​​taking the two directly to Hell was dispelled.

In response, Hozuki could only sincerely wish that these two little creatures would soon go to hell.

……

As the sun gradually sank in the west, Yu Bai and Gui Deng walked together under the setting sun.

The last rays of the setting sun stretched their shadows longer and longer until they gradually intersected behind them.

Yu Bai turned around and talked to Hozuki as he walked, occasionally revealing a happy smile.

"Bai, are those two people people you know?"

Having finished one topic, Hozuki and Yu Bai happened to reach an intersection. The red light on the other side was flashing, and cars were passing by from time to time.

Hozuki keenly caught two unfriendly glances from across the street through the passing traffic.

Looking up, one had black hair and black eyes, exuding a cold aura, while the other had blonde hair and red eyes, displaying arrogance and unrestrainedness.

They are clearly two completely different people. But at this moment, they share two common characteristics.

First, neither of these two people are individuals.

Secondly, the way these two people looked at him was extremely, undeniably, and unfriendly.

Hozuki thought for a moment and recalled the two friends Yu Bai had mentioned a few days ago when he came to Hell, who fought every day in the citadel.

Now, how could he not know who these two people were?

I knew it from the look in their eyes; I'd met "the one."

Very good, confirmed, they are the enemy! A blatant enemy!

It's a pity the spiked club wasn't brought to the present world, otherwise...

Yu Bai, who had been reminded by Hozuki, was still unaware of what had happened.

As he followed Hozuki's words and looked up at the other side of the road, the black and gold figures instantly came into view.

Red light countdown.

What was supposed to be a normal red light countdown felt to Yu Bai as glaringly obvious as a countdown on a bomb.

Is there anything more embarrassing than running away from home and being caught by your family on the street?

Yes, I have.

That means you and two of your best friends have just started a cold war and you're preparing to ignore them.

Before you knew it, your two best friends caught you having a super fun time with another friend.

Yu Bai feels like dying right now.

At that moment, he wished the green light would never come on!

Unfortunately, time waits for no one. Just as Yu Bai was lost in thought, the green light on the road finally turned on mercilessly.

Along with them came two figures, one in black and one in gold.

Yu Baixin is now completely dead.

"H...hi~ Hello, long time no see?" Yu Bai awkwardly raised his hand to greet the two people standing in front of him.

"Enkidu, who is this guy?" Gilgamesh asked first.

"Fengyue, who is he?" Buyue followed closely behind and asked.

Two voices rang in Yu Bai's ears at the same time, making him feel like he was about to explode.

He's my new favorite! You two have fallen out of favor! Guards, banish Gilgamesh and the Yuezhi to the cold palace!

The more frenzied Yu Bai's heart was at this moment because of the meeting of these three people, the more sincere his words were.

"Ahem, Gil and Bu Yue, let me introduce you. This is my other wing... ptooey! My other friend, the demon god Hozuki from hell."

Then, Yu Bai turned to Hozuki and said, "You've probably heard me mention these two before; they're the two friends I was talking about."

The blond one is Gilgamesh, the hero-king known as the oldest king of mankind; the black-haired one is Fugetsu, the god of decay in the land of cherry blossoms.

After the introductions, there was nothing more for him to do, so Yu Bai consciously moved two steps to the side, giving the stage to the three of them.

"Heh, I've heard so much about you, Hero King, Moon Goddess. So it was you two who caused Bai Li to run away from home because of your fight? Thank you so much."

Hozuki spoke to Gilgamesh and Futsuki with a blank expression, but a hint of mockery flickered in his eyes as he looked at them.

These words instantly ignited Gilgamesh's anger.

"What are you talking about, you piece of trash? It's only because we accidentally angered Enkidu that you're involved!"

Gilgamesh glared angrily, creating a tense standoff with Hozuki.

It was as if a giant black python and a lion were eyeing each other menacingly, waiting for the slightest moment of weakness before pouncing without hesitation to bite the other's vital point, fighting to the death.

Hozuki and Gilgamesh were locked in a tense laning phase, unaware that Futsuki was busy sneaking up the enemy base.

He carefully approached Yu Bai without alerting the two of them.

Bu Yue quietly tugged at Yu Bai's sleeve and whispered with concern, "Feng Yue, did you travel through time again? I sensed your soul aura suddenly disappear. Are you injured?"

As she spoke, Bu Yue carefully examined Yu Bai from head to toe several times, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Yu Bai had no external injuries.

That explains why Futsuki-no-Kami gained so much favor from the sword spirits in the citadel's wager between Futsuki-no-Kami and the King of Heroes.

Look, look, that's the difference.

Why should a latecomer surpass the old one?

Because the latter is competitive, eager to grab, and also a great tea brewer!

"It's true that I accidentally traveled through time once, but it's alright. Don't worry about Bu Yue."

Yu Bai shook his head at Bu Yue, indicating that he was not injured.

……

Hozuki: Thank you both so much for bringing Yu Bai to my side.

Gilgamesh: There are scumbags everywhere who want to steal from my best friend. I should just kill them all!

Bu Yue: The child is being quiet; he's probably up to something. (Busy stealing from the house.)
