"You can go now. Tell some people to bring in a dozen NerveGear, I will be having some friends over," said Sora as he monitored the current game.

"Alright, but before I go, will Sword Art Online still look the same?" asked Kayaba with a worried face.

"Yes, Aincrad will remain the same. I will only be expanding the inside. The floor will expand as more and more players enter the game. It will randomly spawn in trees, mine shafts, mountains and mobs suited to the terrain," said Sora with a wave of his hand. "This won't conflict with any of your plans. In fact, it's also helping me and the entire world."

Kayaba stayed quiet with a lowered head, 'How is leading millions of people to die considered as helping the entire world?'

Sure overpopulation is a problem, but to resort to killing millions? Is it not an idiotic idea?

There's a possibility that a person in those millions could've made a change and even helped people escape overpopulation with new experiments.

Shrinking down humans in size would help with millions of things. More resources, more food since animals would be bigger than humans…

"Also, we will extend the week of beta testing to a whole month," said Sora as he glance back at Kayaba.

"Why would we do that?" Kayaba asked.

Originally, Kayaba had thought of making the beta testing last a whole month, but it just seemed like too much time to give the players. So he shook his head, unknowingly using Sora as the foundation of every person who will be playing the game.

"Because I had added over hundreds, if not thousands, of items, skills, buildings, professions, knowledge, books, and even new mechanisms. A whole week won't even be enough to scr.a.p.e off the tip of the iceberg," said Sora with a shake of his head.

With how much stuff he put into the game, many players will be needing 10 years to go through all the stuff he had added. Those 10 years didn't even contain the amount of time it will take comprehending everything he added.

Sora smiled lightly as he realized that the amount of stuff he added can make Sword Art Online considered as some type of weak Inheritance he's leaving for everyone Sword Art Online player to earn.

Any equipped with a mastered knowledge and skill of anything Sora left within the game will make everyone unparalleled and outstanding out in the real world. Although it won't be at the level of Master since it will still take the players time to absorb all the knowledge and then put it into action.

After all, Rome wasn't built overnight.

"I will make sure to get the company to extend the time then," said Kayaba with a nod of his head.

"By the way, did you make sure to lock down the dojos and the stuff they teach?" asked Sora as he thought about the breathing techniques he left at each dojo.

Since those breathing techniques work in real life, it would be rather counterproductive for Sora to prepare the people for the future if they received it now.

If they were to receive it now, news would spread about this and many people would try getting the breathing techniques at any cost. It would even stop people from entering Sword Art Online to train their skills to go with the breathing techniques.

The people also would be receiving the set of movement techniques that go well with the breathing technique.

"Yes, it was all locked down. The SAO citizens were also told that the dojos and every mentor went out on a trip to further their understanding and train harder. That way they won't have any suspicion towards us," said Kayaba thinking about the beings within Sword Art Online.

He was shocked when the NPCs within Sword Art Online were suddenly speaking as if they were alive. When he tried holding a conversation with one, he was shocked to see that he had all come to life and could talk for themselves.

They even released their own missions with appropriate rewards. There are also still event scenarios and the main quest for the whole game. Everything had turned real with Sora's amazing skills.

Kayaba quickly left as he prepared his own items for when the game officially launches.

…

Soon, the items were brought in. Beds and NerveGear were set in the room, all prepared and ready to use.

"I have brought over your friends, Kamiyama-san," said the beautiful black haired secretary.

"Thank you Airi-chan," said Sora with a smile as he guided his friends into the room.

"If you need anything else, you can call the frost desk. I will be there to complete every request of yours," Airi gave a regal bow before closing the door and leaving.

Sora smiled and turned to all 11 of his guests.

Kirisaki Chitoge…

Onodera Kosaki…

Onodera Haru (Kosaki's sister)...

Tsugumi Seishiro…

Tachibana Marika…

Paula McCoy…

Miyamoto Ruri…

Ayakaji Suzu…

Mikage Shinohara…

Maiko Shu…

And Ichijo Raku…

Nine of his guests were females and the last two were males. Nodding his head at the guests, Sora let them all choose a bed to lay on and use a NerveGear.

"Where will you be at Sora?" asked Chitoge as she stood right next to Sora.

"I will be out here monitoring everyone's situation to see that you all are doing good. After checking up on your conditions, I will enter the game and monitor every player from within the game."

Chitoge blushed and asked, "Can you lay right next to me?"

"Sure, but first, let me get you all ready," said Sora as he took out a piece of paper. "Everything is already plugged in and the game has already been chosen. As long as you guys are in a comfortable position and laying down, you can just say 'Link Start' to enter the game."

"Great!"

"This will be awesome!"

"I will be the best swordsman!"

Sora chuckled and watched as everyone laid down and said, "Link Start!"

Pulling out his computer, Sora monitored there conditions before entering the game right behind them.

As soon as the flash of colors disappeared, Sora was spawned at the entrance of the Town of Beginnings. Looking around at the familiar scene, Sora smiled before turning to the 11 people right before him.

"Looks like you are all alright," said Sora as he pulled out the spear on his back.

Since everything on his person was reset, Sora was thrown back to the beginning on the first floor and with no skills. He was given the chance to change his appearance and weapon of choice.

Sora stuck with looking like his RL version and chose to go with a spear as his weapon.

"Yeah, we entered the game just fine," said Kosaki as she looked at her virtual body with amazement.

Everyone nodded and looked at Sora.

Raku took a step forward and asked, "What do we do now?"

"You have three choices. Go and explore the world on your own, separate from the main group and make your own small group, or remain here with everyone as one whole group," said Sora as he looked at everyone with a light smile.

"I think I talk for everyone when I say that we will stay in a group," said Marika as she looked at everyone with a gentle smile. She then turned to look at Sora and continued, "That is, as long as Sora leads us and teaches us many new things and how to use our skills."

Sora smiled and nodded, "I will lead the main group, and of course, I will be helping you all with the skills and how to activate them."

Leading everyone out of the town, Sora took them all to some boars and had them train against them.

Things were going well as they all quickly got used to the boars and leveled up. That's when they had all realized that Sora hadn't made a single move at all. They were all in a Party and were sharing EXP, but Sora said that he won't join.

At the beginning, when they asked Sora what level he was and he responded with 'Level 1', they thought nothing of it as the beta had just begun.

However, after they had all already reached level 5, they were rather worried if Sora would be able catch up with them later on.

"Sora..." nervously called Chitoge as she walked over to Sora.

Sora turned to look at Chitoge, and with just a glance, Sora knew what Chitoge and the rest were thinking.

"Can you… start killing some monsters too. We're all rather worried you won't be able to catch up with us," said Chitoge as she stood right before Sora.

"..." Sora looked at Chitoge and the rest before smiling in amus.e.m.e.nt, "Alright. I will also show you the strength of learning how to use your weapon effectively."

Sora took out his basic spear before checking his skills to make sure he had the Two-Handed Spear skill equipped. After making sure, Sora looked at everyone before walkin forward slowly to a Frenzy Boar that already took notice of Sora.

Leisurely holding the spear in one hand, Sora watched as the Frenzy Boar ran at him at full speed.

'I wonder where I shall take everyone today?' thought Sora.

Once the boar was 7 feet from Sora, a shadow whipped out to the Frenzy Boar in an instant. The shadow retreated as fast as it had appeared, disappearing along with the Frenzy Boar that disappeared into many blue lights.

Everyone who was looking from the side looked at Sora with mouths wide enough to fit an entire egg in there. All they had seen was Sora's arm move forward and then move back, they could hardly see the spear in his hands. That spear was so fast it only let behind it's shadow as it struck the Frenzy Boar once, killing it in an instant.

If they had better eyesight, or even higher levels, they would have noticed Sora's spear spinning.

The spinning force within Sora's spear is so devastating against those within the same level of strength as Sora. The speed and penetrating force of the spear increases by a large margin, not to mention the amount of force behind the spear.

In the hands of Sora, the spear is as deadly as a tank.

The spinning in the spear is not only useful against increasing penetrating force and power, it's also useful for deflecting attacks or even attracting, depending on the situation.

If Sora used the Yang Force or even the Yin Force, the strength behind the spinning will increase by more.

"Now, let us head on to the next area," said Sora as he ignored everyone's baffled looks. He looked at the monitor, which contained the data of all the beta testers currently playing, before turning back to the map.

Having to monitor the Beta testers, Sora can't be slouching even if a bug won't appear that easily.

After looking at the map, Sora started heading off into a certain direction, "There's some Dire Wolves over here. Let's level up."

Everyone followed Sora quietly, remembering his actions from before. His fast and powerful movements were imprinted in their minds, repeating themselves over and over.

'He's this powerful at just level 1? Is he using his administrator privileges?'

Everyone thought the same thing when they looked over at Sora's back. Even if Sora's skills are leaps and bounds far ahead of anyone, to achieve this monstrous skill, the group of 11 found it hard to believe Sora didn't use his privileges.

None of them could believe that Sora had accomplished that single attack with pure skill. Their minds just couldn't wrap itself around the monstrous power Sora exuded when he attacked with his spear at the Frenzy Boar.

The same thing occurred over and over as they strolled through the monsters.

Frenzy Boars… Dire Wolves… Nepenthes… Kobolds…

They watched on with amazement as Sora quickly killed each monster in a single strike. Whenever it looked like the monsters were going to dodge, Sora's spear would move as if it had a mind of it's own. It would quickly move and follow behind the monster, piercing straight through, or slicing it down.

'He must be using privileges!' thought the two guys as they looked at Sora cut down more monsters.

The six of the nine girls had looked at Sora in suspicion. However, after they heard Chitoge. Paula, and Tsugumi, they all looked at Sora with amazement.

Paula and Tsugumi were both used to being hitwomen, so they had seen their fair share of skilled people. So they told the girls that Sora must be a martial artist since they themselves were skilled in hand to hand combat. Chitoge's eyes lit up at Paula and Tsugumi's words, providing evidence on the table

With evidence from Chitoge personally seeing Sora in real life fight against a skilled fighter, the girls believed Sora was an expert at wielding a spear and an amazing martial artist.

"Okay! It's time to exit and head out to have fun!"
