Chapter 9: Accepting Reality
The group exited the building and headed for Kurosan's house. They had to apologize for involving Kurosan and Haru. Especially Haru. She was saved from SAO but now is caught up in another death game.
“Ding Dong!" Kirito rang the doorbell.
“Who is it? !! Kirito...." Kurosan's father opened the door and looked down on the floor.
“Kirito?! Get out of here! YOU WERE THE ONE WHO CAUSED THEM TO BE TRAPPED! *Slap!* GET OUT!" Kurosan's mother came and slapped Kirito.
“Kirito! Are you okay? Hey, even though he's at fault, you shouldn't be hitting hin like that!" Asuna raised her voice.
“Shut up! He's the cause of all this! If he didn't promise Kurosan that game, he wouldn't be trapped in there right now!" Kurosan's mother shouted.
“But, even so-" Asuna was stopped by Kirito.
“Enough. That's enough, Asuna. I won't leave, for I will take responsibility for their safety. Asuna, I heard you ask Rei for the device. Tell him to install it here. I will stay here." Kirito said as he rubbed the wound on his cheek.
“Eh? Kirito-kun!" Asuna was stunned by his decision.
“Kirito, you sure about this?" Klein asked.
“Yeah. I won't leave until I see Kurosan and Haru alive and walking." Kirito then stepped into the house and went to Kurosan's room.
“Hey! Who said you could come in here?! GET OUT!!" Kurosan's mother was grabbing a chair and ready to throw it at Kirito but was stopped by her husband.
“Enough, dear. It's enough. If he's willing to take responsibility, then it's more than enough." Kurosan's father then embraced her and shed a tear.
An hour later, the device arrived and it was installed within minutes. “Alright. It's done. If there's any problems, feel free to call me." The person then gave Asuna his namecard and left.
Kurosan's mother quickly turned on the device and Kurosan and Haru came into view. “It's them! Oh thank god they're both alright!" Kurosan's mother then cried amd hugged her husband.
“Oh! Honey! Now we know that they're alright. No need to cry anymore. We'll be with them from now on. Even if they can't hear our voices." Kurosan's father then turned to Kirito.
“Kirito. Please stay. We need you to give them moral support. Please stay."
“That goes without saying. I mentioned it just now. I will stay here until they are alive and standing in front of me. I left them a list of things they should know about the game and also about my past experience. They will be fine. What they intend to do next all depends on them." Kirito explained.
“Thank you." Kurosan's father then hugged Kirito. Kirito returned the hug and with this, they watched what happens to Kurosan and Haru on their journey to the Tower of Clouds.

Hi, all. I hope you have enjoyed the story so far. The next few chapters will feature Leon and Yuki. When Kirito and the rest will appear again will depend on how I plan the rest. But rest assured, for they will have more scenes in the coming chapters:)
Sorry if you find this chapter short. I just can't find ways to make it more interesting so I guess for now, there is sufficient Kirito and the rest scenes so let's move back to Kurosan and Haru in SVO!
