Op System 72 Chapter: River

A bright sun is staying on the horizon making it a normal sunny day but suddenly a large black cloud appears in the vast sky blocking the sun signaling that its about to rain. Then a black hole materialize above the black clouds and Shen Tian emerge from there.

[Welcome Back To The Sword Art Online World]

"Op system where am i?"

[Op system: Host location, j.a.pan in Okinawa town. Just above The Dragon Group Main House, Host Body is inside]

"i see they moves my body here from the hospi-?!?"

Shen Tian suddenly felt an immense presence approaching him in his vision a vast black river swims through the athmosphere as if it wants to swallow the earth it expand and expand faster than his eyes can see until it surround the earth into a ring but the black river didn't touch anything.

"w-whats.. t-hat...?"

[Op system: A Part of (River Of Time) it always appears when someone is about to break through the Origin Realm... Host you should look around you]

Shen Tian felt something isn't right because the clouds aren't moving, He flew below and see the bustling city become Quiet, a bird who is stopping in mid air motionless, the vehicle's aren't moving 'Even all the people's in the world are immobled in their position.

"the time itself stopped...?" Shen Tian

[Op system: Yes (River Of Time) is one of the most mysterious river in Omni Earth Verse it was said that only those who are about to breakthrough the Origin Realm are the only ones that can see it, once in their lifetime but don't worry Host it will leave here after you broken through Origin Realm]

"this is ones in life time apportunity i should collect some!" Shen Tian

[Op system: Host I advice you, Do not get close to that river because with a single physical contact from it you will die by turning back into Nothingness and don't waste your time or else something unexpected event might happen that you will not like]

"i see... " Shen Tian stared at the river of time a bit then he flew to the Dragon group main house, The main house of Dragon group looked like a mansion from medival era its surrounded by tree's and some beautiful natural landscape. He goes inside using his soul form pa.s.sing through the walls, He see a large number of maids inside the house, some of them are cleaning, cooking and gathering to have some small girls talk but of course they aren't moving .

Then he reached the end of the hallway, He see a door..? well that can't be called a door, its like a gate, with two maids guarding at the opposite corner of the hall. He flew inside the gate and see a king size bed in the middle of the room.

A young man is currently laying there with a nerve gear on his head and at the side of the bed a maid is sitting elegantly on a chair with her eyes closed.

"she is..." Shen Tian moves faster appearing in front of the maid, He see her familiar facial feature's "Nanami.....?"

The woman have the same face of his beloved but she have silver hair and Shen Tian Notice that her proportional size is a bit bigger than in the past *cough*, she even have a mature arua surrounding her.

"Op system 3 months only pa.s.sed here right...?" Shen Tian asks just to make sure...

[Op system: Host do not ask an obvious question... and plss hurry up and fuse with your body now]

"ok ok haha" Shen Tian pats the head of the silver haired maid "To think that you matured this fast in 3 months... hays.. wait for me... ill really come back soon"

Shen Tian stops patting her and he gave her a last look before going near his body fusing with it.

- Omni Earth Verse Core -

Shen Tian see an Ancient Gate blocking his path, the Ancient Gate opens letting him through then inside is an endless darkness but in the middle of it there's a small ball of light, This small ball of light is calling out to him like his mother from the past wanting to hug his entire being, He is getting closer to it, His hands unconciously reaches out to the ball of light.

*BANG* A loud Noise came from the small ball of light and a string of light connects to Shen Tian Body

"What a pure soul and body... it doesn't have a single shred of bad Karma... that means he doesn't need to pa.s.s the trials and just directly go back to the Origin...." A very mysterious voice came to Shen Tian letting him hear it.

"The Origin Accept" The mysterious voice resound everywhere again. Shen Tian can't explain what is happening to his body but He felt a very powerful existence accepted him.

[Op system: Host Broken through the Origin Realm]

Shen Tian opens his eyes and see a clouds..? and a Tree branchs, He is currently sitting on a throne.

Then He moves his gaze around, He see a bed, mirror and a Golden ornaments. 'im inside a Golden cage..? I thought im back in SAO...'

"wait don't tell me... Op system where am i right now?"

[Op System: Host concious is inside the Alfhiem Online, A game in Sword Art Online world]

"the heck... nevermind"

"well waiting here is not bad too my friends will come right..? hmm but in 1st season Kirito reachs the top of the world tree because Yui is with him" Shen Tian opens his game inventory.

"found it" He clicked the game interference and a bright light materialize in the air transforming into a cute little girl.

"Papa!!" The little girl suddenly jumps on Shen Tian who is sitting on a throne, she buried her head on his chest.

"Yui my daugther how are you?"He pats her head feeling warm inside reuniting with her.

"papa i miss you!" she moves her head on his chest from side to side like a cat wanting to feel him more.

"haha i miss you too"

After a while Yui lifts her head gazing above "Papa where are we?"

"inside The game called Alfiem Online a Copy of SAO"

"a copy of SAO?"

"yes someone copied the SAO, creating a new world from it"

"But where is my mama and Big sisters?" Yui

"Big sisters...? hmm scan this world first" Shen Tian

"ok.." Yui holds her head a bit scanning the Alfhiem world in an instant " Mama and big sisters are here!"

"i see... Yui can you go to them and say that im waiting for them here?"

"Papa i can get you out of this cage its just a simple lock" Yui

"Yui... i don't know why but for some reason ill die if i left this Golden Cage... i need them to come here and break it on their own..." Shen Tian felt a bit guilty lying to the little girl.

"But i want to stay with papa more" Yui gaze pitifully at Shen Tian.

"Yui... you need to get out of here now or else the evil game master might come here, He will kill me and delete your existence if he see you..."

Yui widen her eyes "kill papa....?"

"yes... if you stay here your papa will be killed but if you leave then your papa might not be killed" Shen Tian removed Yui from his body, He stand up from his throne walking to the golden cage bars to touch grab it while looking downward below, He gazed at the beautiful city. "So go now my daugther..."

"Papa i... i will go!! wait here.. i will tell them to save you..." Yui have a tears gathering her eyes, she transformed into little pixie and left fast by flying out of the golden cage.

Shen Tian is left there standing alone, his red pupiled eyes are being covered by some of his bangs, He felt anger is gathering inside him waiting to erupt but he didn't let it. He goes back to the throne silently sitting there again closing his eyes to calm his emotions.

"I trust my friends....."
