"Then I'll stick with being a speed-type swordsman. After all, my current development direction is the most suitable for me."

After Yuuki Asuna, Kato Megumi, and Iwanaga Kotoko had decided on the future development direction, Asagiri picked up the phone and said in a calm tone.

"Okay, I've rested enough. It's time to decide which dungeon to enter next. The entry time is Wednesday. After this dungeon is over, the game will enter the third stage."

"Well, let's look at the copy keywords first."

"it is good."

Asami clicked on the eye icon APP on her phone, and the dark red font condensed to form three keywords corresponding to the theme of the copy.

[Wasteland] [Snow Mountain], and...

【Jushan Mental Hospital】

Chapter 60: 058 Another Three-on-One

"Giant Mountain Mental Hospital?"

Seeing the line of dark red text appearing on Asagiri's phone, Yuuki Asuna, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but change her expression. The memory of the rookie copy she experienced when she first entered the copy was awakened again at this moment.

Even though she has gone through so many dungeons and has grown into a high-end player, Yuuki Asuna still feels a tightness in her heart when she recalls her experience at that time.

"Giant Mountain Mental Hospital... I remember this was the first rookie dungeon you two experienced, right?"

Hearing Kato Megumi's question, Asagiri nodded and smiled nonchalantly.

"Yes, there is another good friend of mine there."

"It's a bit strange."

Kotoko Iwanaga stroked her fair chin and said thoughtfully.

"According to the information I've gathered online, Giant Mountain Mental Hospital is from a horror game called Escape. The main source of danger comes from the many highly aggressive mentally ill patients. However...those mentally ill patients are, after all, just ordinary people. Logically, they shouldn't appear in a second-level difficulty instance."

"The information online isn't a complete reference. After all, in the original horror game, there wasn't any bloody-faced caregiver nearly three meters tall, right?"

"Well, that's true."

While listening to the discussion between Asagiri, Kato Megumi, and Iwanaga Kotoko, Yuuki Asuna remained silent. Kato Megumi noticed her abnormality and asked with concern.

"Asuina, are you okay?"

"Um..."

Asuna Yuuki raised her head, but there was no smile on her face. She just replied absentmindedly, then looked at Asagiri who was sitting next to her, with determination in her eyes.

"Leader, I want to choose this copy, is that okay?"

"Oh?"

Asagiri smiled slightly, and instead of directly agreeing or refusing, he asked back.

"why?"

"because..."

Asuna Yuuki recalled the scene when she first entered the novice copy, and recalled the feeling of being weak and helpless at that time. Her slender white fingers gradually clenched into fists, and she gently bit her pink lower lip, and said in a firm tone.

"I always feel that if you hadn't been there, I would have been overcome by fear and anxiety. Although I would have eventually cleared the dungeon, I would have ended up just like everyone else, afraid to even actively sign up for it, or even an ordinary player who died in the first stage. I've always doubted myself... And this time, since I've encountered the Giant Mountain Psychiatric Hospital dungeon again, I want to complete it. Only then can I completely dispel my doubts about myself."

When Yuuki Asuna finished speaking, to her surprise, Iwanaga Kotoko and Kato Megumi both nodded without hesitation.

"Well, then let's sign up for this dungeon."

As the leader, Asagiri nodded slightly and smiled.

"Okay, it's decided. It's the Giant Mountain Mental Hospital."

"Eh? You...everyone..."

Yuuki Asuna was stunned for a moment and hesitated.

"Don't we need to discuss this further? Just because I want to go to this dungeon, I'll just decide. This..."

"There's nothing more to discuss."

Asagiri patted Yuuki Asuna's shoulder gently and said with a smile.

"The reasons you just gave are completely sufficient for us."

"Yes."

Kotoko Iwanaga looked at Asuna Yuuki and said with a smile.

"Are you touched? Now you know how important you are to us? If you are touched, make me more bento~"

Yuuki Asuna smiled helplessly and complained.

"Do you really think of me as your personal cook? Miss Iwanaga?"

After saying this, Yuuki Asuna stood up from the sofa and said with a serious expression.

"Thank you for your tolerance and understanding."

"In that case, I've decided to participate in the 'Giant Mountain Mental Hospital' dungeon."

"it is good."

After the discussion about the game ended and the registration was confirmed, Kato Megumi suddenly spoke.

"By the way, since both of you, Kotoko and Asuna, are free today and it's still early, why don't we go to Ashikaga Sensei's dojo for some sparring? It can be used as a warm-up exercise before entering the dungeon in three days."

"Oh? Okay, okay~"

Kotoko Iwanaga was eager to try and said excitedly.

"Hehe, after the last dungeon, I haven't let you see my strength yet, have I? After handling the monsters' requests over the past two days, I have mastered the power of the black particles. I'm sure it will open your eyes!"

Yuuki Asuna said thoughtfully.

"Warming up?... I haven't fought since I last cleared the dungeon. New weapons and equipment really need some getting used to."

Asagiri looked at Kato Megumi, who had a sweet smile on her face, and said meaningfully.

"Mei, you really are a sinister person."

"Ok?"

Kato Megumi tilted her head and gave a gentle smile.

"I don't understand you."

..............

Half an hour later, in the familiar dojo.

"Hey, Mr. Ashikaga, why are all the walls made of metal?"

Hearing Asagiri's question, Ashikaga Miwa, who was wearing a suit and gold-rimmed glasses and had not changed into a Taoist robe, looked helpless and sighed.

"Isn't that because the wall was smashed last time? When I was looking for someone to repair it later, I thought about it. As your strength increased, the wooden walls and floors were too fragile and couldn't withstand your damage. So I simply replaced them with solid pure metal."

Upon hearing this, Kato Megumi apologized politely.

"It cost you money."

"fine."

Ashikaga Miwa waved her hand casually and spoke in a calm tone.

“It’s not expensive, it’s very cheap.”

With Ashikaga Miwa's wealth, the amount of money required to build not only one solid metal dojo, but even dozens or hundreds of metal dojos would be insignificant in her eyes.

"only..."

Ashikaga Miwa looked at Iwanaga Kotoko and Yuuki Asuna, her eyes filled with pity that made the two women feel a little puzzled.

"You two, take care of yourselves."

"Mr. Ashikaga, what are you talking about?"

Asuna Yuuki stared at Asagiri standing in the center of the dojo, with a competitive look in her beautiful eyes. The translucent rapier made of crystal material appeared in her hand, and her clothes were changed into the set of shining light armor, plus a deep red cloak. She had a unique temperament that was both beautiful and elegant, yet sharp.

"Although Asagiri is very strong, there's no way we can lose to him if we three work together."

Hearing what Yuuki Asuna said, Ashikaga Miwa shook her head helplessly, retreated to the edge of the dojo, took out the high-speed motion camera that had been prepared long ago, and said lightly.

"I hope so."

Ashikaga Miwa didn't want to keep any video evidence, but she knew the abilities and physical values of the four team members. As the team's special training instructor, she had to take the responsibility of correcting the team members' mistakes in certain details during the battle. However, with her naked eyes, it was really difficult for her to see the movements of Asagiri and Yuuki Asuna at full speed.

In desperation, she could only use a camera developed specifically for shooting high-speed movements, slow down the video to carefully review it, delete the video, and then provide guidance.

"Leader, let's make a bet~"

Before the meeting officially began, Iwanaga Kotoko said with a smile.

"In a three-on-one situation, if you win, I'll reward you tonight and satisfy your nagging request~"

Asagiri asked back upon hearing this.

"What if I lose?"

"Then..."

Before Iwanaga Kotoko could speak, Yuuki Asuna spoke first.

"He satisfies your cravings, doesn't he?"

"What!?"

Kotoko Iwanaga's violet eyes widened in shock, and she said in disbelief.

"Do you have the ability to read minds? You can actually see through my thoughts?"

"With a head filled with yellow garbage like yours, do you need some kind of mind-reading technique to see through it?"

Yuuki Asuna first replied unhappily, then shook her head helplessly, tightly gripping the rapier in her hand. With a flickering light, she stared at Asagiri who was standing there seriously, and slowly spoke.

"Let me make it clear first, even if my opponent is Asagiri, I don't want to lose."

"Don't worry, I feel the same way."

Iwanaga Kotoko smiled and said seriously.

"After all...being with him is my biggest motivation!"

Listening to Iwanaga Kotoko's abstract words, Kato Megumi sighed slightly and murmured.

"Is it too late for me to withdraw from this competition now..."

Kato Megumi had no idea about the outcome of this actual combat exercise.

Compared to the last time, the configuration on their side has indeed improved. Yuuki Asuna and Iwanaga Kotoko are both high-end players, and their combat effectiveness is far stronger than Crazy Mita, not to mention Ashikaga Miwa who is just an ordinary person.

However, this time, Asagiri is no longer restricted from switching and using personality masks.

"Let me make it clear first, you are not allowed to scare people with the Supreme Magic Bullet."

Hearing Kato Megumi's words, Asagiri nodded and smiled.

"No problem, I just tried it last time."

Then, Asagiri looked at the three girls in front of him, Yuuki Asuna, Iwanaga Kotoko, and Kato Megumi, and chuckled and teased.

"Although I have imagined the scenario of fighting the three of you at the same time, it's not like this."

"Are you...are you a pervert..."

Asuna Yuuki's pretty face turned slightly red as she recalled the past two days she and Asagiri had spent together at home. A blush appeared on her pretty face as she bit her teeth lightly.

"here we go!"

The moment the words fell, Yuuki Asuna rushed towards Asagiri who was standing there, and instantly approached within one meter of the other party. Her speed was so fast that she even left a red and white afterimage of the deep red cloak and the shining light armor.

Yuuki Asuna's speed and agility are the fastest among the four members of the team. Even Asagiri, who is equipped with Human Shura, is slightly inferior to her.

“It’s really stressful.”

With Yuuki Asuna moving so fast, Asagiri didn't even have time to take out the black gun-shaped summoning device, let alone complete the pre-summoning action of summoning Shura. However, his control over the personality mask's ability had long reached the level where he could skip the pre-summoning action directly at the cost of extra mental energy.

"come out..."

"Human Shura."
