Hollow Theif

Chapter 7 Phantom's Thoughts

She looked unconvinced at first, but then looked to Asuna who nodded and she nodded back and looked a little better

" Alright Big Brother just make sure not to worry mommy so much there's only so much that her heart can take "

As I nodded and then I remembered I was till in my Phantom Theif attire and I realized how exhausted that fight with the Skull Reaper and plus the walk there and fighting off those smaller enemies

" Anyway I'll explain everything that happened that inn "

Asuna: " Oh ok "

Asuna then hugs and I hug her back and then unexpectedly he then hugs my arm very tightly

" A- Asuna what are you doing "

" I don't want my little brother getting lost again... "

And I didn't see that coming

" Little brother? "

I look down at Asuna and see that she still crying while holding my arm

" R-Right, let's head to the inn "

And we all started heading back to the n and Kirito walked up to me chuckling

" I warned you this what happen if you made Asuna worried "

He said patting my back

" But I'm glad you are safe and sound "

" Yea. Thanks. "

I looked down at Asuna feeling bad for making her worried

' I really made them worry I only remember feeling that during that time I got done being interrogated and captured by the police and seeing my team really worried about me and maybe they really do care as much as they do anyway I'll message that others that were coming '

(Timeskip)

After walking over there they were relieved to see that was okay though Sinon though she play it off nonchalantly is now a good starting to explain to them what happened

Kirito: " So that confirms it. This much either game glitching again can force you to teleport to another area. "

Sinon: " Forced teleportation. Wouldn't that be the same thing that happened to me and Leafa "

Leafa: " Wait does that mean you got transported to another world Joker? "

" No. This place I was sent you was still part of Sao. No doubt about that. More like a hidden area if anything "

Sinon: " A hidden area? Do things like that really exist here "

" it sure felt like one because I've been different hidden areas before and it this one did seem like it "

????

As they looked at me questioningly and I realize what I said and said that during this time I haven't really does hidden areas before in this game should I do to make my grinding and try to explore but never to the extent of that

' I may want to countdown experiences I had in Palaces and in the Metaverse before they start becoming suspicious '

" Anyway I think there's a high possibility of getting a hold of some powerful equipment and items by killing monsters there "

Kirito: "Oh really? I like the sound of that"

"Same. Which is why I want to go back there soon but now wouldn't be a good time especially- (Yawn) since going in there really made me bushed "

As I stretched and I thought that during the time there that there's barely really any opportunity to rest there till Philla and I found that Administration area
