Plot Synopsis

"Although this is a game, it's no joke."

Sword Art Online, the world's first massively virtual reality multiplayer online role-playing game, has turned into a death game, and 10,000 users have been trapped in the game world for more than a month. Asuna, who conquered the first floor of the floating steel castle, teamed up with Kirito and continued her journey to the top floor. With the help of the female information dealer Argo, the conquest seemed to be going smoothly, but...

The top player groups leading the raiders, "ALS" (Aincrad Liberation Squad) and "DKB" (Dragon Knights). The two guilds that were supposed to fight together have now started to clash. Behind this, there is a mysterious person working in secret.

In a dangerous battle with death as their companion, Asuna and Kirito are involved in a "threat" different from a "strategy"!
