I live my life in Tokyo

Sakakibara Feng sat on the bench and asked the two sisters to sit down. After walking a long distance, Konno Kapok and Konno Aiko looked relaxed and did not gasp for breath. It seemed that they had done a lot of rehabilitation training after leaving the hospital.

"Hmm... I feel like the lessons are harder than what mom taught me, but my sister is very good. She's in the top three in the grade."

"so smart?"

Konno Aiko felt a little embarrassed, and Sakakibara Kaede smiled and touched her head.

It's good that the two of them can adapt to the current life. He was worried before that they would not be able to keep up with the teaching progress of Fengzhizaki Academy due to academic problems. Now it seems that his worries were unnecessary.

"Ah, brother, Sister Asuna has a lot to say to you." Konno Kaede whispered beside Sakakibara Kaede's ear. The latter twitched his mouth and glanced at the gossiping Yuuki, who giggled, "Because Asuna is the captain's wife~"

"Yuu, Yuuki!"

Yuuki Asuna on the side couldn't sit still anymore. Seeing that the situation was not good, Konno Kamen pulled her sister into the Merlin to play hide-and-seek.

"Don't go too far." Sakakibara Kaede warned.

"I'll go look after them." Chizuru Ichinose also wanted to have a good relationship with the two sisters. What was this called? Family recognition! Besides, she was not at ease letting the two sisters play alone in the plum forest. After all, they were still minors, so Chizuru Ichinose would not leave them alone.

The sound of the wind continued. Sakakibara Kaede looked at Yuuki Asuna, who blinked her eyes, moved lightly, came to the side of the young man, rested her head on his shoulder, and sighed with contentment.

"I heard from Yuuki-senpai that you've been attending a lot of dinners with your parents recently. Take this opportunity to have a good rest."

"Ah."

Yuuki Asuna smiled, as if she remembered something, "By the way, I'm going to keep Chocolate and Vanilla in our house for the time being, and have a part-time worker help take care of them. They don't seem to have any problems adapting, and they lick each other's fur in my room every day."

The young man smiled and stroked Yuuki Asuna's long hair.

"Have you met Yuuki-senpai?"

"No, my brother doesn't know I'm in Osaka yet."

"what?"

Seeing Yuuki Asuna blinking and making a wink expression, Sakakibara Kaede was speechless. If Yuuki knew that Asuna secretly came to Osaka to meet him but didn't call him as her brother... He didn't even dare to think about the ending!

"Sword Art Online, the room has been decorated." Yuuki Asuna whispered, "The bedroom... is a double bed."

Chapter 36: Home in Another World

Asuna Yuuki's parents, Shozo Yuuki and Kyoko Yuuki, want to see Kaede Sakakibara again before going on a business trip. According to Asuna Yuuki and senior Yuuki, the three of them will be traveling around Japan and may even go abroad.

Kyoko Yuki is better off. Her main job is still a university professor. When she is not in Tokyo, she can continue to give online classes to her students. She is not affected much.

Even if Sakakibara Kaede didn't say it, he knew what the Yuki family wanted to say to him. So he decided to meet them. It would be good to meet them once.

"Senior Feng, will you continue to be an actor in the future?"

When Yuuki Asuna saw that Sakakibara Kaede nodded and agreed to the meeting without saying a word, she was so excited that she leaned back in her chair, smiling without any worry at all.

The college entrance examination is just a few months away. Seeing this, Sakakibara Kaede gave a bitter smile. However, he knew that the school girl next to him was a top student with excellent academic performance. Unlike people like Higuchi Madoka who needed him to give her extra lessons, she didn't have a job yet and spent her daily life studying.

"Maybe I'll keep doing it until I get tired of it, and I'll probably continue on this path."

Sakakibara Kaede squeezed Yuuki Asuna's hand, feeling the slenderness and softness of her fingers. "I have thought about leaving the screen, but I haven't thought about what to do after I stop being an actor."

"Hmm...how about being a househusband?"

"You want me to cook?" Sakakibara Kaede twitched her lips. "I think I should sign up for a chef training class and then enroll in Totsuki Academy to see if they can accept me."

"Senior Feng is exaggerating."

Yuuki Asuna burst out laughing and punched Sakakibara Kaede's shoulder lightly.

"I'm going to see my brother tonight, what about you, Senior Feng?"

"I just had dinner with Yuuki-senpai two days ago. I won't disturb the siblings' dinner. I also have people I need to entertain."

Following his gaze, Yuuki Asuna looked at the Konno sisters running and playing in the plum forest not far away, and said with a sigh, "I also want such a lovely daughter..."

Sakakibara Kaede glanced at him and saw that Yuuki Asuna had reacted. The more he spoke, the more he laughed, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Yuuki Asuna noticed his emotions from the subtle fluctuations in the young man's expression, snorted, pouted, and didn't want to pay attention to him for the time being.

"How long have you been playing here?"

"Until your concert starts."

Yuuki Asuna took over the topic thrown by the young man to give her a way out, and chuckled, "In addition to the homework, I also brought my computer. Do you have time tonight? I want to take you to visit my newly renovated new home~"

"Okay." Sakakibara Kaede agreed and then remembered something.

"Do the Konno sisters live with you?"

"Yes, I live next door. Senior Feng, don't worry. Aunt Konno has already prepared the expenses for this trip in advance. It's not my money that is being spent."

"That's good. If there's anything inconvenient, remember to find me... or find Yuuki-senpai."

"Thank you~"

Sakakibara Kaede stood up. The sun was blocked by the clouds and the wind was slightly chilly. He picked up the coats of the Konno sisters and shouted in the direction of Merlin, "Be careful not to catch a cold if you do strenuous exercise."

Asuna Yuuki watched with a smile as Kaede Sakakibara walked forward with her coat in her hand, giving instructions like an old nanny. She stretched lazily, thinking that this holiday was really nice.

Not long after, Chizuru Ichinose came and sat down on the bench. It was a bit tiring for her to play with the two girls. Her physical strength was not good to begin with, and as she got older, she was naturally no match for the Konno sisters.

"Chizuru-senpai, water."

"Ah... Thank you, Asuna."

Chizuru Ichinose was being looked at with a smile. She took the water cup and took a sip with a guilty conscience. She was complaining in her heart why she felt guilty facing a schoolmate who was two years younger than her as she did facing the wife!

"Ah, I haven't congratulated you in person yet, Chizuru-senpai." Yuuki Asuna smiled and held Ichinose Chizuru's hand. The latter was slightly startled, and resisted the urge to retract her hand, and kept telling herself in her heart not to be afraid, don't be afraid.

"What was the opportunity for Chizuru-senpai to express his feelings?"

"Um..." Ichinose Chizuru hesitated for a moment and replied a little embarrassedly, "Is it because of a game?"

"game?"

Yuuki Asuna's eyes suddenly lit up, "What type of game is it? Is it difficult? Does it have high entry requirements..."

Chizuru Ichinose's eyes were already rolling in circles.

Sakakibara Kaede and the Konno sisters sat on the lawn and enjoyed the breeze for a while. After asking about the hotel they booked this time, they checked the map and found that it was not far from the hotel the agency had booked for them. When they returned to the bench, they found Yuuki Asuna enthusiastically pestering Ichinose Chizuru and asking her what she was talking about. The latter had transformed into Pochi-chan, and her soul floated out of her mouth.

Yuuki Asuna had to have dinner with her brother in the evening, and several people sent her to the gate of Osaka Castle Park. After watching her leave, Sakakibara decided to treat the Konno sisters to a meal in the evening. It was the first time for the two sisters to leave Tokyo, or rather, the first time to walk so far after leaving the hospital. Everything around them was very new, and their expressions were also easy to recognize their thoughts. Seeing Konno Kapok staring at the cotton candy stand not far away with a look of desire, Sakakibara bought two strings of cotton candy and handed the other string to Konno Aiko.

Chizuru Ichinose felt that this scene was very beautiful. It was also the first time she saw Senior Kaede with his family. Even though she was the daughter of her stepmother, so what?

"Here, it's for you."

"what."

The girl took the marshmallow from Sakakibara Kaede's hand. She paused, looked at the marshmallow, and then looked at Sakakibara Kaede.

The latter raised an eyebrow in surprise, "You were staring at the cotton candy in Konno Mumianji's hand, so I thought you wanted to eat it. Well, no need to thank me."

"Ahhhhh..."

Chizuru Ichinose blushed and made incoherent sounds. She wanted to cover her ears and run away, but she was misunderstood by Senior Feng. Was she such a naive girl in his eyes?

Sakakibara Kaede looked at her a few more times. He couldn't imagine that Chizuru Ichinose would be feeling this way.

The four of them had a sumptuous dinner nearby. Chizuru Ichinose wanted to refuse at first. After all, this was a family dinner of Kaede Sakakibara and the Konno sisters, and it would be impolite for her to disturb them without permission. However, Konno Kamen said that it was a thank you gift for her playing with them in the afternoon, and there was nothing wrong with eating together.

Sakakibara Kaede had no objection either.

"By the way, Mom wants to ask my brother when he will return to Tokyo. He's been working outside this summer and it's a bit too tiring."

"After school starts."

The young man smiled bitterly. As soon as he left Tokyo, his close friends and relatives who accompanied him in Tokyo were looking forward to his return. It is hard to leave one's hometown. Although Kaede Sakakibara was not a native Tokyoite - he still has not forgotten that he is from Chiba, but his base is in Tokyo and his network of contacts in recent years is also in Tokyo.

Well, after being away for more than two months, people in Tokyo started to miss him.

Sakakibara Feng agreed to his stepmother's request. He had not appeared in front of them for a while. He had originally thought that if they were tired of each other, they would never see each other again, but he didn't expect that he was overthinking. But even so, he didn't want to appear too much in the lives of the three of them. They reserved a room for Sakakibara Feng, but Sakakibara Feng never stayed there even for one night.

She will be sad, right? Sakakibara Feng put the dishes into Konno Aiko's plate and watched her smile softly and thank her coquettishly. Sakakibara Feng sighed. He deliberately created a living environment for them without him. Would it hurt his stepmother's heart?

He didn't want to cause trouble to others, so he subconsciously kept his distance and thought it was a good thing this way.

This is not as good as imagined. If this family is not around, they will be happier. Sakakibara Kaede has no regrets about this action. But the words between the lines of his stepmother's words now reveal that she wants him to come home to visit... The deliberate distance now seems so childish and one-sided...

Kaede Sakakibara sighed with emotion. He decided to go home and visit his father after returning to Tokyo. It would be great if his father had a chance to come back. He had never seen his so-called father since he woke up from the cold water in the park. No, he had never seen him before, not since his mother died of illness in his second year of high school.

He wanted to talk to him.

Seeing that Konno Kapok was still reluctant and wanted to continue playing with him, Sakakibara Kaede threw the messy thoughts in his mind aside, smiled and pinched her nose, "Yuuki, Aiko, you should have brought your computer, right?"

"I brought it~" Konno Mumian shook her head, and her shoulder-length black hair swayed slightly. The hair that originally looked a little dry now looked soft and shiny after care and rest, and her health was getting better day by day.

"Tonight... there is a large-scale hunting activity in the wild. Let's organize it after we return to the hotel tonight."

"Great!"

Sakakibara Kaede doesn't want the two sisters to be playing on the street after nightfall. They are still high school students, and as an older brother, Sakakibara Kaede doesn't want them to be in danger.

Maybe this is what Yuki-senpai was thinking at the time... He realized it, and at that moment, he was a science hunk.

Together with Chizuru Ichinose, he sent the two sisters to the hotel entrance and watched them wave goodbye. He and Chizuru Ichinose said goodbye in front of the hotel lobby and got into the elevator to go to different floors.

What’s different from the team-building training camp in Kyoto? Everyone in Shine World has their own room. Kaede Sakakibara entered the room and took a short rest, then took a shower.

He came to Osaka on a business trip and naturally brought his computer with him. He adjusted the lights in the room to a reasonable brightness, and Sakakibara Kaede slightly opened the curtains to make the night sky of Osaka outside the window more visible.

"——According to the intelligence I heard earlier, it seems that the Black Sword Knights of the Raiders Group are planning to snatch our prey. It is very likely to turn into a large-scale outdoor PVP."

"Got it... Switch the equipment to PVP first, and let the scouts enter the battlefield first. Is that ok, Xiao?"

"No problem, my lord."

While starting the game, Sakakibara Kaede entered the chat hall. He did not enter the voice chat of the legion with the largest number of people, but clicked on the management level, and then heard the above conversation.

Sakakibara Kaede pondered for a moment. The Black Sword Knights were the rivals of the Blood Alliance Knights. The names of the two were very conflicting. They were both knight orders, so which one was stronger? . . . Then they had to compete with each other, right?

First, the Black Sword Knights killed a new player recruited by the Blood Alliance Knights in the wild. This was the fuse, and then it turned into a PVP war between guilds. Sakakibara Kaede and the Black Sword Knights' guild leader did not personally participate in the battle. The young man knew the limits, and he believed that the other party also knew this limit. They were all large guilds in the strategy group, and their participation would likely cause the entire strategy group to fall apart.

Sakakibara Kaede sighed, "Where there are people, there is the world of martial arts. It seems that Yuuki Koichiro can collect a lot of material. The confrontation between two large guilds is enough to write the plot of two episodes of a TV series."

He exited the voice chat quietly. Although he couldn't participate quietly, he could listen to the instructions.

And with Asuna Yuki and the others in PVP, there's no need to worry too much.

Sakakibara Kaede's appearance online did not alarm anyone. He rode on the two-headed wolf and headed out of the city.

After riding for about a quarter of an hour, Kaede Sakakibara could vaguely see flowers, birds, and trees. This was a corner of a residential area.

He called Yuuki Asuna, "Asuna, I'm at the doorstep."

"Ah, wait, I'll come out to pick you up."

Sakakibara Kaede smiled and wanted to say that there was no need for a wall to separate them, but he did not say that in the end. Asuna regarded this place as their home, and so did Harukaze.

If Sword Art Online is really a death game that can trap people inside the game as written in Yuuki-senpai's script, then maybe he would live here with Asuna and regard this place as his home in the other world.

Asuna the human woman gave the minotaur warrior a hug and took her into the hut.

"This is the living room, this is the kitchen, ah, the bathroom is here, I searched for the materials for the bathtub for a long time, and finally I dug them myself——"

Asuna Yuuki introduced their home with a smile. Although it was not big, it had everything needed. Every corner was decorated with carefully matched decorations, making it look very homey.

"Here... is the bedroom. The materials for a double bed were so hard to find, so I bought them directly from the market..."

Sakakibara Feng listened to Yuuki Asuna's whisper and said, "Do you want to lie down and try it?"

"Um... OK."

Yuuki Asuna did not refuse.

The Tauren warrior lay down on it.

The woman lay down on it.

Model, overlap.

"I'll report this to the bug group right away and ask them to update the action of the two people lying on the bed in the next version." Sakakibara watched the woman's face disappear in his arms, gritted his teeth, sent the screenshot to the bug group, and at the same time att several good brothers who were responsible for modeling and fighting on the front line with him at the time.

"Well, let's continue lying down for a while."

"Ok."

Kaede Sakakibara didn't talk to Asuna Yuuki about the upcoming large-scale PVP event. He planned to lie down for a while before talking about it.

The bug group suddenly became lively, with several people offering different solutions and chatting animatedly.

Koichiro Yuki stared at the photo, zooming in, zooming out, and confirming it repeatedly.
