Event 99: The Courage of a Brother

Haruta had returned home, Kiyoko was staying at her parents' house right now, after what happened with Yamamoto she was leaving Haruta to have time to help her friend.

At home Haruta walked down the hallway to the room where the box with the gift of Kayaba Akihiko was kept, the accessory that he had previously longed for and now had become the hottest topic, symbol of curses and reproaches, the nervegear.

The white helmet was out of its box resting in the hands of Haruta who continued with his light blue eyes glowing even in the dark.

[The host came into contact with an object that represents a break with reality]

[Upon entering the pocket dimension all connection to reality will be lost]

[The host runs the risk of not being able to leave the pocket dimension at will]

[All experiences perceived in the pocket dimension will be added to the host statistics]

[Pocket dimension was listed as SAO]

[The system has already been adapted to work indoors]

[Statistics cannot be real they cannot be adapted in the system unless SAO is forced to a modification]

[Do you want to overwrite the SAO data? (cost: 1000 SP)]

[YES / NO]

[Removing pocket dimension constraints suggest physical changes]

[It is suggested to obtain the knowledge of a hardware computer engineer (cost: 500 SP)]

Several messages appeared in front of Haruta when he came into contact with the helmet "This helmet is totally different from the helmet I used in the tests, if I had taken it out before the box there would not be so much problem" Haruta murmured

Soon the door of his house began to be knocked with force, surprising Haruta who moved to see who was making such a scandal.

When opening the door Yamamoto was standing with several bags in his hands "You are going to enter SAO, right?" Before Haruta could say anything Yamamoto entered the house with her bags in her hands.

"I brought several things that can be useful to us, once inside the game we will have to call the police to take us to a hospital. For both of us, it should not be impossible to finish the game, you have a lot of skill in real life with the sword and you used the game before so you can help me when we are inside, I suggest we start by going up levels. Of course we have to form an action plan before entering the game where will we connect the helmets? "

Yamamoto entered speaking like a madman without paying attention to Haruta who was standing behind the dismayed "what?" Yamamoto asked when he saw that Haruta did not say a single word

"You weren't in the hospital?" Haruta asked

"When I told you that Asuna was in the hospital because of SAO, it didn't take you a single second to run out to see her, I know you were going into the game and I can't let you enter alone" Yamamoto said with a forced smile on his face

"This can take a long time, next year you will enter university"

"That is why we must enter as soon as possible and finish the game as soon as possible."

"What will happen to your girlfriend Asumi?"

"The same thing that will happen with Kiyoko, they will have to wait for us and pray for our survival"

"This is a game of death, it is not a walk, Yamamoto"

"It is for that and many other reasons that I cannot let you enter alone" Yamamoto reached out his burned arm to hit Haruta's chest with his fist while outlining a radiant smile "We are practically brothers, we take care of each other since childhood and I cannot let you take that risk on your own "

"When I saw you devastated when leaving Totsuki I was worried, but the next morning you seemed like someone else, you showed yourself to be more trustworthy and proud than before, always exceeding everyone's expectations, always showing new talents, I knew something had happened but I was happy of your change "

"Seeing you so talented I could not help but want to be the same and work just as hard, I discovered many things and met many people, then I found the sexual abuse network, I did not stand idly by but unfortunately I ended up in the hospital"

"When Asumi told me what happened in the Kendo club I could only cry for helplessness, I know you took revenge for me, but I don't want to be the weak anymore, I don't want to stand idly by while my brother is the star of everything this, I want to be just as cool and now is my chance to shine, we'll both get into this damn game and end it together "

"We will save your girlfriend and I will find a second girlfriend, I will also have my harem to show off, she will be as brilliant as you, after we finish this game we will crush Azami and bring your other girlfriend, we will also rescue Nakiri Erina"

Yamamoto let out several statements with pride, Haruta on the other hand could only keep his eyes open looking at his friend.

"Yamamoto, I can't ask for a best friend, you really are my brother too"

"Of course we are brothers and brothers help each other"

"Because we are brothers I must tell you a secret, I have powers"

Yamamoto stood looking at Haruta "Did you hit your head?" Yamamoto asked but Haruta shook his head.

"I have a kind of system in my head that allows me to have rare abilities, it's basically like cheating in real life" Haruta declared seriously as several screens appear in front of him "Right now I don't understand how this ability works but you can also have a system"

[Do you want to add Yamamoto as a subsidiary host to the system?]

[YES / NO]

Haruta quickly accepted

[Yamamoto was added to the local network of the system]

In front of Yamamoto a green window appeared welcoming him, Yamamoto's face went through various expressions but stopped in amazement.

"Th-this ... is this real?"

"Yes, welcome to the GAFS system, I hope you can keep this secret yourself"
