Super God: If I punch you, you will die

In the original storyline, Asuna lived in a charming little apartment on the third floor. However, it has now been moved to the thirteenth floor of a duplex building, with an area more than three times larger than before.

The facilities of this house belong to the second category of SAO's current boutique houses. The first category is the luxury villa that Lin Yan bought.

In addition to the four bedrooms and two living rooms, there is a spacious kitchen, a study, a gym, and a separate, chic rooftop garden.

The rooftop garden is located on one side of the living room and is connected by a road. The high floors and staggered design of each building create a very spacious view.

Asuna had this in mind.

I chose this place without hesitation.

Apart from that, all the furniture was custom-made.

They all belong to the category of haute couture.

"I'm only able to stay here thanks to you, boss. If I weren't with you, I wouldn't be able to afford the exorbitant price of 15,000 k.

Asuna said it with a hint of teasing.

Although Lin Yan always appeared unfathomable to outsiders, and most people did not know what he looked like.

However, Lin Yan was so witty and humorous in front of Asuna.

This is a unique treatment that others can only envy.

"Then you should treat your boss well. If he's happy, he might even give you a raise."

"Take orders."

Asuna also showed a rare mischievous side.

When Asuna reappeared, her battle suit had disappeared, replaced by a simple white T-shirt and a short skirt that went above the knee.

Such a simple outfit perfectly showcased the girl's curvaceous figure, slender waist, and long legs.

Not an ounce of excess fat.

An enviable figure.

Changing clothes in SAO is actually just manipulating the equipment doll in the status window.

It can be completed in a few seconds.

If SAO were still the normal game from its closed beta, probably no one would care, since it was just a 3D archive. But now, for all the players battling in SAO, this is the real world.

Being alive is real.

Death, too, is real.

Lin Yan also changed out of the black suit he was wearing.

He was also dressed simply in a T-shirt and casual trousers. Even so, Asuna still seemed a little reserved. She glanced at Lin Yan with a shifty look, her expression becoming somewhat unnatural. After all, Lin Yan wasn't as particular as a girl.

While changing clothes, even though the pants were already on.

However, while changing his shirt, he was caught by Asuna. Asuna immediately noticed Lin Yan's abdominal muscles. Those solid muscles were clearly the result of long-term fitness training. Perfect male curves, full of power.

This stands in stark contrast to those bald, greasy, and pot-bellied middle-aged men.

In addition, Lin Yan's angular facial features added to his masculine charm.

Whether it's his tall and straight figure or his handsome face, his chiseled features reveal a man's strength, while his deep eyes are like a vast universe.

The aura emanating from Lin Yan.

It also gave her a sense of being protected.

At this moment, Asuna materialized the "Mixed Rabbit Meat Chunks," and it was the first time Lin Yan had ever seen the real thing of an S-rank ingredient.

"Do you have any requirements? Like the taste of the food or something."

Asuna asked.

Lin Yan walked over, looked at the S-grade ingredient 'Mixed Rabbit Meat Chunks', and smiled, "It's all yours, Senior Chef."

"How about stewed rabbit with mixed meat? Anyway, it's called mixed rabbit stew. Since it's called mixed rabbit stew, it means it's suitable for stewing, isn't it?"

Asuna thought for a moment and then said.

After Lin Yan nodded, she turned and walked into the semi-enclosed kitchen. The kitchen was equipped with various high-end cooking utensils, including the oven that would be used for this stewed rabbit dish.

Asuna skillfully operated the oven.

Set the treatment time.

Prepare a metal pot, add all the meat to it, and also add a variety of carefully prepared herbs.

These should be the seasonings in SAO, similar to real-world spices like star anise, pepper, and fennel.

After filling the container with water, put the lid on.

Looking at Asuna, Lin Yan suddenly had a thought—a virtuous wife and loving mother.

“In reality, cooking is much more complicated, but SAO makes it very simple, which immediately makes the cooking less interesting.”

Asuna's tone even sounded somewhat complaining.

It's not hard to deduce that Asuna enjoys cooking in the real world.

And they enjoyed it.

However, Lin Yan was slightly shocked by the skillful operation. Even in the SAO world, cooking skills require practice to improve proficiency.

……

five minutes later.

"I can still guarantee the taste."

Asuna was also sitting at the dining table, opposite Lin Yan.

Looking at the delicious-looking and fragrant food before him, Lin Yan couldn't help but admire it. He had personally witnessed Asuna's cooking process, and whether it was preparing the ingredients or seasoning, it was all done in one smooth and effortless motion.

Absolutely accurate.

As expected of Asuna.

"It looks amazing, like a work of art." This was Lin Yan's assessment of the food in front of him, and it was not an exaggeration at all.

The steaming chunks of meat, and the aroma of the seasonings.

Thick sauce.

Bright in color.

Lin Yan took a bite. With just a gentle bite, the large chunk of meat seemed to melt in his mouth, practically melting instantly. Then came the burst of juices, the sensation of the meat juices exploding in his mouth was even more exhilarating.

SAO's eating process utilizes a "taste regeneration" system developed by a system environment programming company that collaborates with ARGUS.

It's like directly intruding data into the brain.

In this way, players can experience an immersive feeling.

Asuna took a bite, a happy smile spreading across her face. "It's a good thing we're still alive in this world, isn't it?"

"Ah."

Lin Yan also felt deeply moved. Although SAO could not threaten his life, he had witnessed the struggles of countless players in SAO and couldn't help but feel something.

Asuna paused for a moment before speaking again.

"I even have the feeling that I've always lived in this world, and what makes me most... uncomfortable is... the things that happened in that world are occasionally forgotten..."

"There are less than 500 players left on the front lines now, right? Actually, the scariest thing is not their fear of death."

"Instead, they've become numb, they've gotten used to being here..."

Just coasting along and waiting to die!

The orange light illuminated Asuna's face, highlighting her delicate skin, her smooth, flowing hair, and her exquisitely sculpted features.

It's absolutely stunning.

Looking directly at that face, one might even have the illusion that Asuna isn't a 3D file, but a real human being.

"However, even so, I still want to return to the real world. We will definitely be able to go back... We..."

Asuna's confused gaze hardened, and she looked at Lin Yan with unwavering determination...

"I will not compromise, nor will I become numb; I will keep moving forward."

Keep moving forward.

Never give up.

Before meeting Lin Yan, Asuna had never considered these issues, but after being with Lin Yan, Asuna was reborn.

Her life shone brightly once again, and she found her way forward once more.

"As long as I'm with you, I have nothing to fear. I also believe that we can... return to that world once again."

Asuna's gaze fell on the window.

No matter how magnificent the sunset, how enchanting the sunrise, or how breathtaking the scenery, SAO can create—for example, an endless lake or a lush, vibrant primeval forest.

Or it could be a large expanse of grassland used for tourism.

These are all just illusions.

Immersing oneself in a false world only leads to decadence. It can slowly cause a once-ambitious warrior to fall silent and decay.

Lin Yan, on the other hand, has always been moving forward.

Keep moving forward.

Asuna also needs to catch up with Lin Yan and become his strength, rather than simply being the one who takes from him and seeks protection.

After their conversation, Asuna was no longer confused.

She stood up and made a cup of tea.

"Although this tea is different from that in the real world, it still tastes pretty good, somewhat like green tea."

It does indeed have many similarities to the real world.

The withered plant buds unfurled fully in the hot water, their yellowish color turning vibrant and glistening, like a magical transformation.

At the same time, a pleasant fragrance wafts over.

That's the fragrance of plants.

"Yeah, that's pretty good."

Lin Yan took a deep breath.

Suddenly, he felt refreshed. Lin Yan looked at Asuna, who seemed to be thinking about something for a moment before changing the subject.

"After the seventieth floor, haven't you noticed that the monsters are becoming increasingly unpredictable? That's the rule system."

This means that tactics are becoming increasingly difficult to formulate.

Lin Yan has always been in charge of the tactics. Most of the time, everyone agrees with him, but there are a few times when his opinions differ from everyone else's.

But later events proved otherwise.

Truth is sometimes not in the hands of many people.

But -

It's in the hands of one person.

That's Lin Yan.

Both Lin Yan's strength and the fact that he received so much attention from female players made those men envious and jealous.

Especially when he occasionally appears with Asuna.
