"But I still choose to sleep, I'm really quite tired."
After saying this, Asuna hesitated for a moment. There were no bedrooms, sofas, or benches in the building.
She yawned.
Lin Yan looked at Asuna with a mysterious smile and said, "Come with me."
For a moment, Asuna was even a little dazed. In many people's eyes, Lin Yan was an enigmatic and unpredictable figure.

"where to."
Asuna looked at Lin Yan's smile.
Lin Yan's signature smile was actually something that the perceptive Asuna could keenly sense in Lin Yan's emotional changes. Although each smile seemed calm, there were subtle differences within that calmness.
A relaxed smile.
A mocking smile.
An indifferent smile.
A warm smile.
A forgiving smile.
……
Every Lin Yan is unique, at least in Asuna's eyes. At this moment, Asuna also chooses to believe in Lin Yan.
"Ah."
Asuna nodded.
As Asuna stood in front of the door of the house next door, a look of confusion once again appeared on her face.
"This isn't a hotel, so you probably can't stay here, right? Unless you buy the whole house, you can't move in smoothly. But I wonder which rich person would choose to pay 4 Cors to buy this house." Asuna smiled. "Although I want to wait until the ship is built so I can see it as soon as possible, but...actually, staying in a hotel that's a bit further away...Lin Yan?"
Lin Yan reached out and gently took Asuna's hand.
That smile appeared on his face once again.
It was as warm as the winter sun.
It lacks the arrogance of the summer sun, has less domineering power, and has more gentleness.
"Come."
"and many more."
Asuna's first thought was to force her way in, or in simpler terms, to break into someone's home.
but--
The expected alarm did not sound.
Lin Yan held Asuna's hand and pressed it together on the control panel, and then the key to the cabin materialized.
"This is……"
Asuna's face still held that shocked expression.
Lin Yan chuckled softly and said.
"The key."
"You really bought this house."
Asuna exclaimed.
This is no small sum. In the original series, Asuna bought a house on the sixth floor and renovated it for only 4,000 k.
At that time, she was already a core member of the Knights of the Blood Oath.
Clearly, ordinary people simply don't have the financial means to buy this house, especially since it's only the beginning of the game. Asuna estimates that this house will remain vacant indefinitely. It's probably the most expensive house on the entire fourth floor.
"Of course, otherwise where would we sleep at night?"
Lin Yan said it with great ease.
The fact that he bought a house just to have a place to stay for the night was surprising, not so much because of the huge sum of 4,000 kJ, but because of Lin Yan's indifference to money.
This magnanimity.
Incredible.
"Let's go in."
Lin Yan pushed open the door.
Asuna walked in with light steps.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a bright and spacious living room, fully furnished with all the necessary items. From the high-end, minimalist sofa sets to the furnishings on the first floor, down to the small decorative ornaments and trinkets, everything appears to be of considerable value.
The crystal chandelier looked incredibly luxurious.
In addition to the living room, the first floor also features a spacious kitchen and dining room. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the dining room is even more spacious.
The second floor houses the bedrooms, including the master bedroom, a secondary bedroom, and a guest room. Surprisingly, it also features a large, separate bathroom, making it quite luxurious.
In addition, there is the rooftop garden.
Asuna looked around and admired the sights, never expecting that she would be living in such a luxurious villa just over a month after logging into the game.

"Are you hungry? I'll go cook."
Asuna was actually aware of the awkwardness and wanted to avoid it and ease the tension. To Asuna's surprise, there was a considerable amount of food stored in the refrigerator.
Asuna changed into casual everyday clothes, a simple white dress. At this moment, Asuna had a completely different aura, no different from the middle and high school students she encountered in the real world.
The goddess's halo is gone.
In reality, Asuna is just an ordinary girl.
He can be vulnerable inside, and even occasionally act sentimental like other girls.
Although you've changed clothes, you can actually just manipulate the equipment doll in the status window.
The entire process took only a few seconds.
Female gamers would never change their clothes in front of others, even if our bodies are just 3D stereoscopic files.
Asuna glanced at Lin Yan.
"Aren't you... going to change your clothes?"
Lin Yan smiled slightly and changed his clothes. Similarly, after shedding his black clothes, Lin Yan looked just like an ordinary young man.
A thought suddenly flashed through Asuna's mind: them being together late at night, discussing dinner, would make anyone who saw them think they were a couple deeply in love.
No.
They look more like a newlywed couple.
With this thought in mind, Asuna blushed.
For Asuna, who had no prior experience with romance, this was her first time, leaving her somewhat bewildered.
The spacious kitchen is fully equipped.
Asuna skillfully prepared a fish, though it was just a matter of handling it; she then moved on to the oven.
Pop-up menu.
Adjust the temperature.
That's it. A grilled fish will be ready in a few minutes.
"SAOd's cooking process is too simple, which takes away a lot of the fun of cooking."
Asuna even complained a little.
In addition to the grilled fish, Asuna also prepared several side dishes.
She selects and handles ingredients with absolute ease.
……
A few minutes later, a sumptuous feast was served.
Lin Yan and Asuna sat opposite each other, surrounded by the aroma of grilled fish, several exquisite and delicious side dishes, and fragrant rice.
Just perfect.
Lin Yan didn't stand on ceremony and directly savored the aroma of the food and the warmth of the hot dishes.
SAO's eating process doesn't involve calculating and simulating the sensation of biting into objects one by one. Instead, it uses a "taste regeneration" system developed by a system environment programming company that collaborates with ARGUS.
This is a system that uses pre-input data to transmit various sensations of "eating" to the user's brain, allowing the user to experience the same sensations as when actually eating.
It is said that this system was originally developed for people who want to lose weight or need to restrict their diet.
The principle is to send fake signals to the parts of the brain that control taste, aroma, and temperature, making the brain have the illusion that it is eating.
In other words, our physical bodies in the real world did not eat anything at that moment; the system was simply stimulating the parietal lobe of the brain.
A meal passed.
Lin Yan said with satisfaction.
"It tastes really good."
Even in SAO, the human desire for food remains instinctive and has not diminished in the slightest.
"sometimes……"
Asuna paused for a moment before speaking.
"There's even a kind of illusion, a feeling that it was always like this..."

"The feeling of being born into this world, and... this feeling..."
"It's getting stronger lately, but over there... the memories of that other world..."
Asuna felt a little melancholy.
Lin Yan didn't actually have many real feelings about it. For him, SAO wasn't a death trial game, but another world.
This isn't the first time he's traveled to another world.
The world of gods, the Marvel universe...
This is the SAO world now, and Lin Yan believes that this is not the first world, nor will it be the last world he travels through.
He actually understood Asuna's feelings.
If she forgets the real world, will she be trapped in it forever? Of course, it's also possible that her physical body in the real world will die first.
Everything is unknowable.
"One hundred floors..."
Asuna murmured to herself, somewhat lost in thought. One hundred floors was the entirety of Aincrad. This floating steel city was a castle built of rock and steel.
From the first to the hundredth floor, each floor contains several cities, numerous small streets and villages, forests and grasslands, and even lakes.
There is a connecting staircase between the upper and lower floors, but the staircase is located in a dangerous maze area filled with monsters.
Players can only rely on their own weapons to navigate these floors, find the stairs to the upper levels, defeat powerful guardian beasts, and strive to reach the top of the castle.
Besides fighting monsters, there are also crafting skills such as metallurgy, leatherwork, and tailoring.
There are also everyday skills such as fishing, cooking, and music.
Players not only adventure in the vast area, but also, as the text describes, "live" in it.
But what if "life" becomes imprisonment?
