Super God: If I punch you, you will die

He would occasionally show a shocked expression.

The world is far more complex than she imagined!

"I think you probably already know Shinkawa Kyoji's identity. His father is the director of a general hospital, and Shinkawa Shoichi is his older brother, the eldest son of the hospital director."

"Shoichi Shinkawa was supposed to inherit the family business, but he was sickly from childhood and had been seeking medical treatment for many years."

"Helplessly, his parents had long since abandoned him, since current medical conditions simply cannot cure his illness, and they could not entrust the family business to someone who might die at any time. That's just how cruel reality is."

"Since Shinkawa Shoichi is unable to continue, there is still his younger brother, Shinkawa Kyoji."

"His parents had high hopes for Kyoji Shinkawa, and because of these expectations, they were very strict with him. They were so strict with him, but they almost ignored Shoichi Shinkawa. The treatment of these two new brothers was completely different."

"But their parents don't know that they are wrong."

Seijiro Kikuoka paused briefly; he was not unfamiliar with such cases.

Parents hope their children will become successful.

We had too high expectations of them.

They thought they had sacrificed a lot for their children's future, but they didn't realize that they were imposing their love on others.

This is love, but it is also selfish love.

For Shino Asada, she had never had such an experience before.

She had never experienced the weight of her parents' love.

However—Asada Shino was also somewhat taken aback. She had always thought that Shinkawa Kyoji was a hypocritical villain, but she didn't expect that he was also carrying a heavy burden.

"It's quite unbelievable, but even so, Shinkawa Kyoji and Shinkawa Shoichi still have a good relationship."

“Shoichi Shinkawa was unsuccessful in real life, so he imprisoned himself in games. And since he had such a good relationship with Kyoji Shinkawa, it was natural that his younger brother also became addicted to games.”

"The 'SwordArtOnline' incident happened, so Shinkawa Shoichi was trapped in that world. After he was in a coma for two years, Shinkawa Kyoji, who was obsessed with his brother, once again worshipped his brother Shinkawa Shoichi even more, almost to the point of madness."

He believes that Shinkawa Shoichi is a hero.

hero?

This is an ironic title.

Lin Yan knew, of course, what Shinkawa Shoichi had done during the SAO era. He had committed heinous acts for his own selfish desires. To be honest, countless lives had been lost at Lin Yan's hands, but he always had a choice between killing and sparing.

"Shoichi Shinkawa's murderous deeds made Kyoji Shinkawa even more envious."

kill?

Do you yearn to kill?

Asada Shino seemed to recall that horrific scene again. Even though the other party was an utterly wicked person, Asada Shino still couldn't forget the fact that she had killed someone.

I can't forget that terrifying memory.

She simply couldn't understand why anyone would be interested in bloodshed and murder.

"So that's really how it is."

"Yes."

"One day in October, their conspiracy began..." Kikuoka continued, "In fact, Shinkawa Kyoji had been numbing me, blurring the lines between the real world and the false world."

"True and false, false and true."

Lin Yan's words left the two of them somewhat puzzled.

"Perhaps this world is also a fictional world? But even so, this world is a real world."

"Ah."

Asada Shino nodded.

"But the strangest thing is that after we arrested the three men, they all wanted to arrange a time... to commit suicide."

Kikuoka shook his head.

"This is probably karma."

This gathering has come to an end. In fact, it's more like a summary of this incident and an answer to Asada Shino's inner doubts.

Lin Yan left with Asada Shino, but Asada Shino asked Lin Yan where they were going. However, Lin Yan did not answer her.

The scenery on both sides gradually transformed into rural landscape.

Finally, it stopped in front of a small shop.

It was a coffee shop, but it was quite different from the average coffee shop. It had a unique charm that other elegant and quaint coffee shops lacked.

Rugged and unrefined.

"diceycafe...is that the name of this coffee shop?"

"Ah."

Lin Yan nodded and pushed the door open to enter.

A wind chime hung on the door, its sound crisp and melodious, followed by slow-paced jazz music that sounded like flowing water.

It flows slowly through time, giving people a sense of tranquility, as if gently flowing into the depths of people's hearts.

It has a rich and pleasant aroma.

Upon entering the café, one would see that it was a very small shop. However… Asada Shino felt a warmth she had never experienced before. That warmth was like the winter sun, not too dazzling, nor too scorching.

It is a gentle temperature.

"welcome!"

Instead of a cute young lady, a burly man greeted the guests. He was dressed as a waiter, which looked rather comical.

Coupled with that serious expression, it's simply amazing.

Asada Shino subconsciously looked around and only saw two guests, both girls in uniforms, who looked like high school students.

"Why are you here just now?"

She was a girl with shoulder-length hair, and she looked very lively and cute.

There was also a girl with straight, brown hair that reached her waist.

"Who is this?"

"GGO's Shino, Asada Shino."

"Forge Master Lizbert, Rika Shinozaki."

"Asuna, Yuuki Asuna."

The introductions were very simple, but the atmosphere quickly eased.

By this time, Asuna also knew what had happened in GGO and about Death Gun. Although the matter was over, she still couldn't help but feel lingering fear.

She believed in Lin Yan.

But there's always a chance something might happen.

Fortunately, Lin Yan returned unharmed, which was a stroke of luck.

"Sometimes I think that Death Gun might not be the only one whose personality was warped in SAO; there might be... more..."

This topic was quite heavy, and Asuna smiled again.

"Fortunately, we have Lin Yan."

"That's right, Lin Yan saved the entire SAO. We, the survivors of SAO, are all grateful to Lin Yan."

Lisbeth winked mischievously.

"We must properly thank our savior!"

She, Lisbeth.

No, it should be said that Rika Shinozaki chose to bury her feelings deep within her heart.

"And I also got to know Asada-kun, which is something to be very happy about."

friend?

This is something Asada Shino has always longed for but never been able to obtain. For years, she has been betrayed, repeatedly betrayed. This has made her unsure whether she can still trust others. Although Lin Yan is special, she still harbors reservations about accepting new friends.

Fear is not so easily dispelled.

Asada Shino was also conflicted deep down. When she first met Asuna, she could see the girl's thoughts from her clear eyes. Every time Asuna looked at Lin Yan, her eyes revealed infinite tenderness.

They must have a very close relationship.

For a moment, she even felt a little envious of Asuna.

friend?

Shino Asada shook her head helplessly.

Asuna was a very understanding girl, and she seemed to see the utter helplessness in Asada Shino's eyes.

The same is true.

Asada Shino found it hard to trust others, and even secretly wondered if Asuna and the others would betray and despise her if they found out about her past, just like the other people from the past.

She could no longer bear such a change.

So over the years, she hasn't gotten very close to anyone.

“Poetic.”

When that voice rang out, Shino Asada's body trembled slightly.

She instinctively curled up.

He looked warily at the other people.

moment.

Their eyes met.

It was the same gentle gaze as always, like a ray of warm sunshine shining into her dark world. The trembling in her body vanished in an instant, and the fear disappeared as well.

At that moment, Asada Shino slowly shifted his gaze to Asuna. A slight surprise flickered in his eyes, but he saw the same gentle smile in Asuna's eyes.

That gentle smile was exactly like Lin Yan's.

Asada Shino's body gradually cooled down, and she seemed to manage a faint smile.

How long has it been?

How long has it been since Shino Asada smiled in front of strangers?

It's been so long that I can't remember.

Even so, the shackles in Asada Shino's heart were not so easily broken. While feeling the warmth of this thought, she also remembered the fear and unease of being betrayed and suspected.

Asuna slowly raised her hand.

"Asada-kun... nice to meet you..."

In an instant, their hands collided.

Asada Shino was somewhat surprised that she had raised her hand and clasped it with Asuna's.

That was the warmth of skin touching.

This warmth.

It felt both strange and familiar.

"Um... Oh... Please guide me..."
