My system is broken will

Aincrad Floor 48.

The town is called [Lindas]. Compared with towns on other floors, there are criss-crossing waterways here.

"It's a bit like Venice in real life."

"Has President Fengchen been to Venice?"

Even though it has lost contact with reality for more than a year, related topics can always attract the attention of players.

Even Asuna and Kirito are no exception.

"I've never been there, I just read about it in books."

Lindas has a waterwheel structure, and the power it provides is very expensive for production-based players.

The most typical example is the blacksmith.

"Is this where it is?"

This is a small house with a waterwheel.

It is not an easy thing to own your own hut, not to mention the facilities such as a water wheel. For production players, buying your own hut is far more difficult than for players in the strategy group. What's more, the opponent seems to

Also hired NPC***.

"It must be at least a few million kels, right?"

This number is so scary that other players can't even imagine it. Even if it's Feng Chen, it will take a certain amount of time to accumulate this number.

It is precisely because of such amazing numbers that it can highlight how good the opponent's technology is.

Being able to open a weapons shop on the 48th floor, which is close to the front line, is a technical guarantee in itself, otherwise Asuna would not have brought Feng Chen and Kirito here.

The plaque on the hut reads a few big words - [Lizbeth Weapon Shop].

After Asuna stepped forward and opened the door, a lively voice came from the store.

"welcome!"

Feng Chen and Kirito walking behind her also saw the player who made the sound.

She looks as lively as her voice. She has pink hair and dark blue eyes, and looks to be around fifteen or sixteen years old. As for her dress, she wears a white apron outside her skirt. She doesn't look like a store manager, right?

The other party also checked the store like an NPC, making Kirito think that she was a hired NPC.

After seeing this player, Asuna's face showed a rare smile. Feng Chen knew that this was a smile that showed complete trust in others.

Moreover, Asuna took the initiative to speak.

"Long time no see, Liz."

After hearing the sound, the other party looked in the direction of the store entrance.

The lively voice that I heard when I entered the store and the professional smile that was always on the other person's face disappeared in an instant.

"So it's you, Asuna."

There is no need to use words to describe how familiar the two are, it can be guessed through this extremely simple conversation.

"Why do you have the time to come to my place? Don't you have to be busy with the strategy team?"

The person in front of me is the deputy leader of the [Blood Alliance Knights] and an important figure in the strategy team. It is a bit difficult to see her in person.

Not to mention that now is the time when the morale of the strategy team is high, so they should focus all their energy on strategy.

"I'm here to introduce you to a guest. Someone wants a high-performance weapon, but doesn't know many players who know how to forge it, so they have to ask me."

The girl glanced behind Asuna, and after seeing Feng Chen and Kirito, she pulled Asuna to her side, turned her back to the two of them, and brought their heads together.

"Hey, what on earth is going on?!"

"What's going on?!"

Asuna didn't understand what Lisbeth wanted to express at all.

"Why did you bring men here, and there are two of them!"

The other party really didn't expect that [Flash] Asuna, his best friend, would actually bring a man to his store.

As one of the few female players in the strategy team, Asuna has always been one of the focuses of the players due to her technical prowess and beauty. There are many cases where there are men around her, but those are teammates during the strategy game or guild members.

subordinates here.

And these two players don’t look like subordinates at all, right?

How did Liz know this? Players in the [Knights of the Blood Alliance] guild have customized clothing, which they usually don't take off unless they are taking a break.

That’s a little weird, right?

But she is probably the only one who thinks so. Asuna is not the kind of woman with special quirks. Why would she have two male players by her side for nothing? A reverse harem?

"What are you thinking! Just friends, friends!"

Even after saying that, Lisbeth still looked a little weird.

But in the end, Asuna used various methods to deal with it.

"Okay, okay, I believe it, I believe it."

(It doesn’t look like I believe it at all!)

Even so, Lisbeth still showed a "you know" smile. In an instant, it turned into a professional smile and walked in front of Feng Chen and Kirito.

"Hello, welcome to Lisbeth Weapon Shop. I am the shop owner and blacksmith here. What do you two need?"

Feng Chen pushed Kirito in front of him and revealed his purpose this time.

"This kid wants a sword that is similar to what he is equipped with, so he asks the owner Lisbeth."

Even if Kirito resists, the difference in strength is there, and resistance is useless.

"oh?"

In order not to expose his identity, all the special items that symbolize his identity have been put away, and Kirito has not put on the black coat.

As for Feng Chen, since Bella doesn't wear a maid uniform, there shouldn't be any problem if she changes her title. However, Feng Chen insisted not to let her follow.

Gray hair, female, and a player in the strategy group, only Bella seems to perfectly fit these three points.

Feng Chen definitely had no choice but to leave Bella at home.

(Although I feel wronged to her, it can only be like this.)

It's better to go back after finishing the work. Anyway, the strategy team doesn't need themselves for the time being.

"Okay then, take out the sword and let me see it."

After taking out the black one-handed sword behind her and placing it on the table, Lisbeth just took one look at it and was speechless.

The [Elucidator] equipped by Kirito is not only a [Demon Sword] level weapon, but what is more important is the level of the weapon.

What was placed on the table was not [Interpreter], but [Interpreter +40].

This is already the upper limit of how weapons can be strengthened in SAO. Currently, no weapon has been found that has a higher upper limit than this magic sword.

"Eh--?!"

There is no need to imagine how much such a weapon can surprise the opponent.

After all, the opponent is a player who is proficient in blacksmithing skills. You can imagine how enthusiastic he is about this [Magic Sword] level weapon, right?

"What's wrong?!"

Asuna heard the sound and ran towards the workbench.

What he saw was Lisbeth lying on the workbench, staring at the interpreter, and making a "shassssssssssss" sound.

"This is the Demonic Sword [Explainer]——!"

Well, Lisbeth will definitely be in a state of excitement throughout today.
