章 193: Demons invasion
The dazzling golden light seeped into every corner of the room, creating an atmosphere full of hope. After a few seconds that felt like an eternity, the light began to subside, revealing two figures lying on the bed. Yuuki and Aiko, the twin sisters who had been fighting against the disease, had now awakened from their critical condition.
Yuuki slowly opened her eyes, feeling the warmth of the light enveloping her body. As her vision began to focus, she saw Noah standing beside her, his face filled with a gentle smile. "Noah… I…" Yuuki was surprised, her voice trembling with emotion.
"Welcome back, Yuuki. You've recovered," Noah said in a gentle tone, and Yuuki felt a rush of happiness flow through her. She tried to get up, but her body still felt weak even though Noah had given her Youth protection, this was not because Noah's protection was ineffective but because Yuuki was not used to moving since she had been lying in bed for a long time.
Noah helped Yuuki to get up slowly and get used to her body. A few moments after Yuuki was able to walk, they came to Aiko's room next door.
In the next room, Aiko also woke up. With still dull eyes, she looked around before looking at Noah and Yuuki.
"Aiko" Yuuki called before coming to Aiko's bed and helping her sit down.
"Yuuki, I think my illness is cured?" Aiko asked confusedly.
"Hehe... right, Noah has cured our illness, Aiko"
"Noah?, is it you?" Aiko asked while looking at Noah who was standing behind Yuuki. her voice was weak but full of curiosity. "Are you Yuuki's boyfriend?"
Yuuki immediately blushed, her face turning red. "A-Aiko! That's not—," she tried to explain, but Aiko was already laughing lightly, raising her eyebrows with a mischievous expression.
"Ah, so this is it! The boyfriend you've been keeping secret from me! Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Aiko continued, making Yuuki blush even more. In her weak state, Aiko could still tease her sister, something they always did.
Noah chuckled seeing their interaction. "Actually, I'm Yuuki's friend. And I came to cure you both," Noah explained, while giving a reassuring smile.
Aiko, now slightly more conscious, frowned. "Friend? Hmm, looks neat. But… why did you do that? Heal us?" she asked, curious.
"Noah has amazing powers," Yuuki replied, her eyes sparkling with admiration. "He can do magic, and he used his powers to save us."
"Magic, huh? Interesting," Aiko replied with a wide smile.
"You must be an amazing person. But, honestly, I'm more impressed by how you managed to make Yuuki blush like that," she said in a teasing tone.
Yuuki covered her face with her hands, trying to hide her embarrassment.
"Aiko, please don't start again!" she exclaimed in an annoyed but laughing tone.
Noah just laughed, feeling the warmth of the moment. "You two are indeed connected in a beautiful way. This is what makes you siblings," he said warmly.
Aiko then turned her attention to Yuuki, her expression serious.
"But, really, thank you, Noah. If it weren't for you, we probably wouldn't be here right now," she said sincerely.
"Yes, thank you so much, Noah!" Yuuki added, his eyes filled with gratitude. "I don't know how I can repay this favor."
"No need to worry about that," Noah replied, raising his hand lightly. "The important thing is that you guys are back and can live well."
As they talked, the atmosphere in the room felt warm and full of hope. Yuuki began to share stories about her experiences and how she got to know Noah, while Aiko listened with sparkling eyes every time Yuuki told how she defeated many monsters in Aincrad.
"Mmm..."
Noah frowned as he felt a lot of magical power approaching, although weak but had a very dense amount.
Noah turned his gaze to the sky and saw the black dots that filled the sky getting closer, with Noah's vision, he could see the figures of demons flying towards earth.
'Invasion?, is this Baalram's work?' Noah thought as he saw the demons land. Several demons landed at the Yokohama Koohoku General Hospital.
..boom..
Accompanied by a loud explosion, the hospital shook from the attack of the demons.
"Arrghh!!..."
Screeches of panic were heard throughout the hospital as people ran.
An old patient who was running slowly immediately felt the sharp claws of the demons pierce his body.
"Noah what's wrong?" Yuuki asked worriedly when he heard the screams and felt the room shaking.
"Yuuki, I'll take you and Aiko to take shelter at my house, it seems like this world has been invaded by demons" Noah told them and led them back to his house.
"Demons?" Yuuki asked as they appeared at Noah's house, while Aiko was still in confusion digesting what happened today.
This day brought more surprises to her than in more than ten years of her life.
When they arrived home, Hiro and Squad Z01 werewolves had fought with some of the stronger demons. Their fight destroyed the beautiful garden outside the villa.
"You guys wait here, don't go out of the house. I'll pick up Asuna" Noah said to them before disappearing.
Meanwhile at Setagaya Chuo Hospital,
Asuna stood at the hospital window, holding back her nausea from the bloody scene, her eyes focused on the chaos outside. The sound of explosions and panicked screams filled the air, creating a tense atmosphere. Outside, the demons were running around, attacking anyone in their path. She could see the other family members trying to protect each other, but none were able to fight the relentless attacks of the demons.
Asuna clenched her hands tightly until they bled, she gritted her teeth in annoyance at herself for being helpless. If only she still had the power she had in SAO, she could fight those demons.
"Asuna, we have to get out of here and find a safe place, I know a secret passageway to this hospital" Kyouko said to Asuna anxiously. At this time she had lost her cool when faced with the supernatural event, but for the sake of her daughter she tried to stay calm.
"Where are you going, Mom?. We'll wait for Noah here, I'm sure he'll be here soon" Asuna said with full confidence.
"But... can your boyfriend defeat those terrifying creatures?" Kyouko asked uncertainly.
"Don't worry, I'm sure Noah can do it" Asuna answered firmly.
"Asuna, Kyouko-san, it's a good thing you're still here" Noah's sudden voice surprised them.
"Noah...!" Asuna exclaimed before hugging Noah as if she had found a life-saving straw.
"Don't worry, Asuna, I'll take you to a safe place"
Noah said to calm Asuna down.
"Kyouko-san, I'll take you to my house, you'll be safer there" Noah continued to Kyouko.
"Then, I'll trouble you, Vermilion-kun" Kyouko answered without arguing. Without delay, Noah immediately teleported back to his house with Asuna and Kyouko.
.....
"Noah, my father and older brother..." Asuna said in a low voice.
"I see. Kyouko-san, can you contact them?" Noah asked Kyouko.
"Can't connect, it looks like there's a network failure. But they should be in Rect right now" Kyouko replied.
"I understand" Noah said before calling the underworld soldiers and asking them to pick up Asuna's father and older brother.
Accompanied by a magic circle, the underworld soldiers immediately disappeared from the villa.
"Noah, who are they?" Yuuki asked curiously.
Kyouko who heard this also pricked up her ears because this was the first time she was faced with a supernatural event, let alone facing a demon invasion. She wanted to get to know her son-in-law better who might be the only person who could protect them in this crisis.
"They?, they are the soldiers of the underworld that I summoned. Each soldier is an immortal existence, so no matter how they are killed they will immediately rise" said Noa without hiding.
"Amazing!!!" Yuuki and Aiko exclaimed.
Asuna looked at Noah with pride and admiration, because he was the man she chose.
"By the way, Noah, is there anything we can help you with?" Asuna asked hopefully.
"No need, it's too dangerous. Even though you have experience fighting in Aincrad, your current body is only an ordinary human and fighting in reality is different from fighting monsters in Aincrad. Here, one mistake and you'll die immediately, there's no such thing as HP," Noah said, shaking his head.
"But..." Asuna said, trying to argue.
"Asuna, listen to what Vermilion-kun said. You'd better stay here," Kyouko said firmly. She knew her daughter's stubborn nature, so she had to reprimand her firmly.
....
Back in Akihabara, the battle between the players and the demons continued to rage. In the chaos, the SAO players tried to strategize, using their skills and abilities from the game to fight this real enemy. They formed small groups, trying to protect and support each other. In this critical situation, their bonds of friendship grew stronger, as they fought for each other's safety.
Amidst the bustling bustle of Akihabara, the sounds of screams and explosions filled the air. The SAO players fought hard, facing off against rampaging demons with terrifying power. Kirito, Klein, and the members of the Fuurinkazan guild tried to strategize amidst the chaos.
"We need to focus our attacks on the larger demons! They seem to have a leader of this group, and if we can defeat it, maybe we can stop the rest!" Kirito said firmly.
Klein nodded, looking at his guild members with encouragement.
"Healers, prepare healing magic! DPS, prepare your magic! Tanks, tank the demons!" he directed, and his guild members quickly got into position. They cheered each other on, preparing for a bigger battle.
In front of them, a giant demon with curved horns and shiny black skin stood menacingly. The demon let out a terrifying roar, as if daring the players to come closer. Kirito took a deep breath, feeling the energy flowing through him.
"We can't retreat now," he whispered to himself.
With a leap, Kirito dashed forward, drew his sword, and charged at the demon with a swift attack.
"Sword Skill: Starburst Stream!" he shouted, unleashing a series of deadly attacks. His sword gleamed, cutting through the air and striking the demon's body with thunderous force.
The demon roared in pain, but its attack was not over yet. It swung its giant arms to retaliate, but Klein was ready.
"Shield Bash!" he shouted, raising his shield and blocking the demon's attack with force. "Come on, attack now!" Klein directed his members to attack simultaneously.
Several Fuurinkazan members who were serving as DPS cast fire and wind magic, launching balls of fire and sharp wind at the demon.
"Fireball!" shouted one of the Elf mages, a fireball shot out and hit the demon's body with an explosion that shook the surroundings.
However, the demon did not give up so easily. It let out a terrifying scream and responded with a counterattack. With a swift movement, it launched a dark wave from its mouth, destroying the surrounding buildings and forcing the players to dodge.
"Healers, quick! Heal them!" Klein shouted, seeing several of his guild members fall from the attack. A healer immediately raised her hand and cast a healing spell, a soft light enveloping his injured friends.
Kirito did not give up.
"Klein, we need to distract this demon! Come on, attack from multiple directions!" Kirito said, formulating a new plan. He jumped to the left side of the demon, while Klein and the other members attacked from the right side, creating a confusing chaos.
The demon tried to fight back, but the attacks from multiple directions made it difficult for it to focus. Kirito took this opportunity.
"Now, Sword Skill: Dual-Wielding!" He activated his ability, attacking the demon with two swords simultaneously, each attack emitting a sparkling light.
Klein, following Kirito's movements, shouted,
"Get ready! All DPS, attack at once!" The members of the Fuurinkazan guild united, unleashing magical and physical attacks simultaneously. The sound of explosions and light filled the air, as their attacks struck the demon with incredible force.
The demon roared, forced to retreat. However, at the same time, it let out an angry roar and swung its giant hand, creating a wave of void that swept away the players.
"Watch out!" Kirito shouted, trying to protect his comrades.
They fell to the ground, but their spirits were not extinguished.
"We cannot give up! This is the time to unite!" Klein shouted, rousing the fighting spirit of the guild members.
With renewed vigor, they rose, ready to continue the attack.
"We can do this!" Klein continued, raising his shield and preparing to act as a shield for the rest of the members.
They all lined up again, ready to deliver the final blow.
"Get ready, everyone! We will end this together!" Kirito shouted, and with one move, they all launched their attacks together.
In addition to the battle between SAO players and demons, in the midst of the chaos that has engulfed the Japanese region, the JSDF (Japan Self-Defense Forces) troops are facing the threat of demons that have just landed in Japan. With complete military equipment, they have deployed all the forces they have, except for nuclear weapons which are considered taboo and unsuitable for use.
On the destroyed streets, Type 90 tanks advance, the roar of their engines echoing among the rubble of buildings. Beside them, fully armed infantry troops are ready with assault rifles and grenade launchers. Major Takeda, who is leading the troops, stands in front of a monitor screen that displays the current situation on the ground.
"All units, stand by! We will face a demon attack coming from the east!" he shouted over the radio. The sound of warning sirens echoed, and the troops readied their rifles.
Not far away, a group of large demons emerged from the shadows, led by a tall creature with curved horns that gave off a terrifying aura. With a swift movement, the creature raised its hands, summoning dark energy that gathered around it.
"Protect our position!" shouted one of the soldiers, but it was too late. The demon released a devastating wave of magic, hitting several tanks at the forefront.
The tanks were destroyed in an instant, exploding into a mess of metal. The sound of the explosion shook the ground, and flames engulfed the remains of the vehicles. Soldiers nearby were thrown to the ground, staggering before getting back up.
"Retreat! Retreat to a safe position!" Takeda ordered, but the fighting spirit of the troops did not die down. They knew that if they retreated, there would be more casualties.
"Launch the rockets! Target that big demon!" Takeda shouted, and one of the troops immediately operated the rocket launcher. In an instant, the rockets flew towards the demonic creature, exploding right on its body. However, the demon only staggered slightly before letting out an angry roar, and summoning dark energy to strengthen itself.
"Prepare for the next attack!" Takeda shouted, as the soldiers readied their machine guns. They began shooting at the smaller demons that tried to attack from the sides, unleashing bullets with high precision.
.....
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the world, various countries were also facing a demonic invasion. In New York, United States, the Armed Forces troops prepared for a major attack. The sky was filled with F-22 fighter jets launching missiles at the demons roaming the city.
"Targets ahead! Release!" General Harris shouted, watching the fighter jets attack from the air. Missiles flew, destroying buildings behind the attacking demons. Massive explosions shook the streets, but the demons did not waver.
One of the demons responded by summoning a magic wave, destroying several tall buildings nearby. "Hold your position! Don't let them get any closer!" General Harris shouted, but at that moment, a large demon landed in the middle of the city, destroying military vehicles and wreaking havoc all around.
...
In Europe, in London, the British army was also battling the invading demons. Tanks and armored vehicles were approaching the city center, but the demons were getting stronger.
"Protect the base! Don't let them destroy it!" Colonel Smith shouted, but the demon easily lifted an armored vehicle and destroyed it with a single move.
In every corner of the world, soldiers were battling unimaginable creatures. These demons used magic to destroy buildings and vehicles, and even as the armed forces advanced, they were always on the verge of defeat.
Back in Tokyo, Takeda looked at his comrades. "We can't retreat! We have to fight!" he shouted, raising his assault rifle and firing at the approaching demon. "Prepare for the final blow!"
Meanwhile, the other soldiers tried to come up with a plan. They realized they had to act smarter. "We need to stop their leader!" one of the soldiers shouted, and Takeda nodded in agreement.
"All units, focus on the demon leader! We'll attack together!" Takeda ordered. He led his troops in a targeted attack, directing their fire at the large, threatening creature.
With a well-thought-out strategy, they began to attack in unison. Bullets, rockets, and magic from the SAO players fighting alongside them pounded the demon. The demon began to falter, but then let out an angry roar, summoning more demons to support it.
Chaos erupted as more demons descended from the sky, destroying buildings and vehicles around it and killing many soldiers.
"Retreat! Retreat to safety!" Takeda shouted, but many soldiers were caught in the attack.
"Prepare to fight! We can't surrender!" shouted one of the squad members, trying to encourage the others.
....
Meanwhile, other countries were also fighting off the invasion. In Paris, France, armed forces were trying to protect the Eiffel Tower from the approaching demons. "Don't let them destroy our icon!" shouted a captain, aiming his gun.
However, with each attack they made, the demons grew stronger. They used magic to destroy buildings and vehicles, creating chaos in every country they attacked.
...
Back in Akihabara, Takeda tried to rally all the troops.
"Ready! We will make the final attack!" he shouted, and all the soldiers readied their guns and rockets.
"One more time! We will destroy this demon!" Takeda shouted, raising his hand, signaling to move.
With a burning spirit, the JSDF troops and SAO players united in one final attack. They let loose their fire and magic, directing all their power towards the demon leader. Explosions erupted everywhere, destroying the ground around them.
The demon roared in pain, but the creature stood still, ready to fight back.
"We cannot give up! One more time!" Takeda shouted, and they all launched their attacks together.
With all the strength they had left, bullets and magic shot towards the demon. This attack was the deciding moment, as they all hoped to turn the tide of the battle.
The demon let out a final scream before being hit by a powerful attack, and in an instant, it disintegrated into smoke. The soldiers cheered, celebrating their victory over the threatening creature.
However, even as they celebrated their victory, they realized that this was far from the end. Other demons still roam the world, and the battle is not over. In every country, soldiers fight to restore order.
Takeda looks around, realizing that many of his comrades have fallen in battle. "We must stick together. This is just the beginning," he says, his voice full of determination.
Across the world, soldiers from different countries support each other, fighting together to defeat this threat. This battle is the beginning of a long journey, but they are committed to fighting to the end. With hope and courage, they are ready to face whatever obstacles lie ahead.
