Chapter 13: Coming back
[I got confused what Emperor is with who so I will rerelease this fixed]
-----------------
As Mint is logging off he gets a report that Kirito has joined the Moonlit Black Cats and that the emperor of devils joined the Knights of the Blood with Nautilus while still spending time with Yuna, as there isn't that much for Mint to do for now so he will laze off until June 24th as that is the day he will join Sao again.
As June 23th has arrived he gets the report that the Moonlit Black Cats guild is dead except Kirito of course and that the AmuSphere was created by now.
It's now June the 24th and Mint gets into the armor suit for FullDive, as he says "Link Start" he is transferred back to his body that is sitting on the throne waiting for him when he got used to his body he messaged Kirito that the "quest" was in an area that he couldn't message or receive messages and asked what's the situation, now Kirito is still traumatized by the death of his guild and starts crying wherever he is because Mint is his brother and very close to him too, while sobbing Kirito receives another message that asks where he is seemingly like Mint knew that Kirito is sad right now.
After they both agreed to meet inside a house Mint bought on the 22nd floor, it was more of a mansion and it is built into a mountain, from the outside it looks like a small fortress but from the inside, it looks like a cozy loghouse. When Kirito went to the location he found Mint waiting on the outside for him, while sobbing he runs to hug Mint and tells him about how his guild died, Mint tells him to say everything slowly and that he prepared some tea for them. Kirito told Mint about how he joined a guild, about how fun it was with them and that they died, Mint's calming aura helped Kirito tell all these plus Mint's cooking skill is almost maxed out so the tea and other snacks he prepared were great and considering he is a master at most things at the real world so his cooking in Sao is Godlike, Kirito is amazed by the quality of the food and it reminded him when Mint sometimes cooked in the real world for them plus, it was about a year the last time he ate something this amazing, while Kirito and Mint are talking Mint silently sent a message to Argo telling her he's back and that he couldn't message while he did the quest, but he gave her info about the floors until the 25th one before he left. So a couple of days of Kirito hanging out with Mint in the mansion Kirito is now feeling better but still a tiny bit depressed Mint says "I know it's still hard but there are people that care about you, outside and in Sao like Klein, Suguha and some others, plus people are counting on us to free them from this death game so let's work hard to beat this game and beat up Kayaba for this!" Kirito quickly agrees and thanks Mint before leaving the cozy mansion, kirito right now seems on the bright side but it's only because he's in range of Mint and when he leaves Mint's side he will be depressed but less depressed than the original so he will still want to revive Sachi...
A little time skip now and [and as the Non-conformity issue won't change the fact they will try to save this group I won't need to cover much plot holes! Yay!]... the Emperor of Yugoloth is called by Mint to meet up at the date the tragedy that Yuna dies happens, Mint and the devil emperor waited around the area that the event happens while invisible.
A moment before Yuna sacrifices herself the Devil emperor starts rushing with Mint to the boss, the emperor of Yugoloth starts playing with a violin and used a skill <Violent piercing> [suppose to be a pun...] that while he plays the violin the monsters are hateful towards himself and take damage while they are in the range of the skill, while Mint [Level 50] summoned 6 Glabrezus [CR 9] {With a broad, muscular body, a Glabrezu stood 9–15 feet (2.7–4.6 meters) tall. Their most physically bewildering feature was their two pairs of arms, each with a different extremity. While their main arms were monstrous limbs that ended in powerful pincers, the smaller humanoid pair ended in clawed hands and protruded from the stomach. Goat horns adorned the top of their canine heads and numerous fangs rested in their muzzles. Their skin was wrinkly and ranged in tone from deep russet to pitch black. A pair of cold, purple, piercing eyes hinted at their great intelligence, contrasting with their bestial appearance.} that 4 grabbed 2 lesser monsters each [around 20 monsters in the room total] and killed them easily as these fiends are at the level of the mobs at the floors around 45 and that is 5 floors above the current one, while the other 2 grabbed the boss's limbs with their pincers and waited for further orders from Mint and each time it struggled they punched it with their more humanoid arms, as the monsters tried to get rid of the Yugoloth emperor the demons could freely grab monsters and kill it easily, everyone is shocked by this as they thought they are doomed and they are scared of these demons until someone remembered and exclaimed: "Are you Mint the guild leader of The Fiends Guild!?" as Mint is famous in the early game for destroying multiple bosses and giving information about the floors while he's completing a major quest, Mint nodded and he slashed the boss in half with his scythe as its cries were getting annoying, after Mint did this and the group left except Nautilus and Yuna he told them "Nautilus, quit the knights of blood and stay near Yuna to make sure this situtation doesn't happen again. Oh, and I am Mint, your friend told me about you and we discussed it a bit while we rushed here." the Yugoloth emperor nodded and said, "Don't worry guys because with leader here Sao will be completed in no time!" they both slowly nodded as they are shocked by a couple of things plus Yuna was uncomfortable to make her childhood friend worry that much about her...
So Yuna and Nautilus went to the fortress home in the 22nd floor to live quietly, in reality, that mansion is fully controlled by Mint so time is fuzzy there so there won't be much progress between Nautilus' and Yuna's relationship, plus she kinda fell for the Yugoloth emperor so yep plus Nautilus realized it and supports it fully as they are both his beloved childhood friends and he thinks Mint will be better for her future, Etc...
So after getting that out of the way, Mint checked the status of the guild... Mint is around level 50 now, the emperors around 45, the kings around 40 and the dukes around 37... the progress is quite good with everything and as ALfheim Online (ALO) is created he sent copies to gain the monopoly on various races but mainly the Spriggans and Imps as those 2 races are the closest to a demon race, and there will be a few copies of Mint using the real new Fiendish race and make rumors about the race like that this race is the counter to the 'Alf' race that doesn't actually exist, and that they are working as mercenaries for all the races for numerous jobs varying from assassinating to farm work and they didn't fail a single mission yet for the right price....
