Two years after 10,000 players were trapped in the VR world and forced to participate in the impossible death game known as Sword Art Online, VR technology has only continued to evolve. A state-of-the-art AR device called the Augma has risen to prominence, becoming a near-essential part of everyday life as well as the exclusive home of an MMORPG called Ordinal Scale. Blurring the lines between fantasy and reality, Ordinal Scale quickly captures the attention of Kirito and his friends, who decide to start playing. But things take a turn when Kirito gets word of SAO bosses appearing inside this new world...

Witness the first steps in the story of the girl who would one day become the infamous "Zekken!"

"After a close call with Morte and his PK gang during the Stachion questline, Asuna and Kirito make their way toward the front line.

But that lead will have to wait, as the three must retrieve the floor's sacred key before the fallen elves bring their nefarious scheme that much closer to fruition."--Provided by publisher.

"This might be a game, but it's not something you play. Asuna and Kirito's romantic day turns into a quest to uncover the mystery of the flying house. Teaming up with some familiar faces may not be enough, though. They'll need heart, brains, and a whole lot of courage if they want to clear this one. And when Asuna begins to have out-of-body experiences, their investigation returns a shocking possibility--maybe it's not an issue with the system, but rather something tugging at her very soul"--
