Feeling pangs of despair and guilt, he was comforted by Asuna, who immediately engaged with him in a romantically toxic relationship after promising to help him keep his nightmare a secret, not knowing that Alice was watching them. Some hours later, he and Asuna, along with their friends, received a surprising reunion with Suguha, who claimed that she had escaped from the clutches of Rosalia, Johnny Black, the Shinkawa brothers, and Critter, along with the resurrected Kuradeel, Vassago, and Gabriel, all of whom had been planning to exact their revenge on Kirito for what he did to them. Knowing that he fought her kidnappers before, he promised Suguha that he'd beat them again, but upon leaving the Dicey Cafe, he and Asuna were immediately surrounded by a group of anti-SAO protesters, led by Kosaka and his lackeys, who called them out for everything that happened ever since the SAO Incident began. However, just when Kosaka's lackeys were about to kill Asuna, Kazuto lunged towards them and stabbed them with a dagger shortly before impaling Kosaka in the chest with Shino's gun, saving Asuna in the process. Before Kosaka died, he told Kazuto that he was only just the first of many and that a savior would come to cleanse the world of its true enemies, starting with Kazuto, using up the last of his breath to send compromising information about him to his old foe, but when Kazuto asked him who he sent it to, Kosaka mockingly retorted that he thought that he knew who it was. Startled by this revelation, he and Asuna burned the bodies and weapons of Kosaka and his lackeys and dropped them into a nearby waste bin, while she told him that what he did was out of self-defense and that he didn't have to worry about it. | Feeling pangs of despair and guilt, he was comforted by Asuna, who immediately engaged with him in a romantically toxic relationship after promising to help him keep his nightmare a secret, not knowing that Alice was watching them.

A few days later, he and Asuna, along with their daughter Yui, bought a futuristic house with the help of Argo's closest friend and accommodated to this new life, unaware that Sugou had broken out of prison with the help of Future Tech Industries, a shady corporation that had arranged for his release and established plans to make major changes to all of Japan. During this moment, they entered the world of [[Forum:Destiny Online|Destiny Online]], an [[Wikipedia:Xbox|Xbox]]-exclusive [[Wikipedia:Virtual reality|VR]][[Wikipedia:Massively multiplayer online role-playing game|MMORPG]] where players can experience and control their in-game characters with their minds and controllers. Having already migrated their accounts into the game through their [[Wikipedia:Xbox Series X and Series S|shared console]], they adjusted to this new gaming style and, at some point, through their [[Guardian]]s, managed to kill the united alliance led by [[Lisknis, Devil Enforcer]] and [[Lisknis, the Devils Executor]]. Believing that Sword Art Online had gotten too old for them, they began to live their own lives, but that feeling was interrupted when Alice sent a distress signal to them, telling them to turn on the news. Once they did, they saw a recent photo of a nurse, which was taken hours before her death, distressing | A few days later, he and Asuna, along with their daughter Yui, bought a futuristic house with the help of Argo's closest friend and accommodated to this new life, unaware that Sugou had broken out of prison with the help of Future Tech Industries, a shady corporation that had arranged for his release and established plans to make major changes to all of Japan.

Believing that Sword Art Online had gotten too old for them, they began to live their own lives, but that feeling was interrupted when Alice sent a distress signal to them, telling them to turn on the news. Once they did, they saw a recent photo of a nurse, which was taken hours before her death, distressing Kazuto when he recognized her as Nurse Aki, but that feeling soon turned to horror when he saw a note that was sewed up on her uniform, which read ''"To the Swordsman: Your life for theirs,"'' along with photos of Sasha and the children players, whom she cared for during the SAO Incident. Vowing to rescue them from the clutches of their kidnappers, Kazuto and Asuna went to the Ocean Turtle and consulted with Kikuoka, who helped them out with the investigation, only for them to receive more disturbing news regarding Underworld. Entrusting their friends with that task, they, along with Alice and Takeru Higa, went to the Axiom Church, where they spoke with Iskahn and Scheta, along with the Supreme Sorcerer, Emerald Archer, and Bronze Titan, the elite commanders of their respective armadas of the Integrity Mages, Bandits, and Knights, who spoke about the unsettling return of the Star King, who had now sought revenge for what happened to his Queen. Aware of his previous time as the Star King, Kirito, Alice, and Asuna traveled to the Star King's castle, where they fought off his army and managed to neutralize his powers long enough for him to get through to his counterpart and help him turn good again, which proved to be a perfect moment when a trio of monsters cornered them, seeking to avenge The Gleam Eyes's death. Having seen their movements the same way The Gleam Eyes performed its attacks, Kirito, Asuna, Alice, and the Star King formed the ultimate attack, utterly penetrating through the monsters' defenses and destroying them for good. Knowing that the Star King can finally be at peace, they thanked him for helping them and protecting Underworld shortly before logging off. | ||
Upon returning to the real world, Kazuto encounters his aunt and uncle, who greeted them with good news regarding new developments towards the case about his biological parents' deaths, explaining that the police had finally found the identity of the person who killed them. Relieved and happy that he can finally be able to rest easy, he went with them to the police station, where Officer Saito, a prominent and kind-hearted policeman who called them about the case, discussed with them about his birth parents' killer and the events that impacted his life after their deaths. Promising to send the full details of the killer's identity, he gave them the short version, explaining that it was indeed Suguha, even though she appeared much older than her current self, and that his birth parents can finally rest in peace, knowing that she will have been brought to justice. Feeling betrayed by his own cousin, but also comforted by his promise, he thanked Saito for the news and went back home with them shortly before leaving with Asuna, which unknowingly resulted in an enraged and deranged Suguha visiting the police station, where she, having embraced the [[Forum:Maleficent|evil presence]] within her and adopted the Mistress of Evil's embodiment, murdered Officer Saito in cold blood and burned everything related to the murder case, managing to wipe off any and all prints that could implicate her in the intrusion. | Upon returning to the real world, Kazuto encounters his aunt and uncle, who greeted them with good news regarding new developments towards the case about his biological parents' deaths, explaining that the police had finally found the identity of the person who killed them.

Tormented by this sickening revelation, Kazuto and his friends went back to the Dicey Cafe, where he attempted to track down Shino so that he could bring her back, but ran into Alice, who demanded to know why the two attackers were after him. Startled by her sudden approach, he replied that it was because of the death threats he had been receiving ever since Suguha's encounter with his old foes, which changed her angry mood into one of fear; sensing that he was telling the truth, Alice pleaded for him not to go after Shino's kidnappers, fearing that he could put himself in even more danger than he already was in. However, the conversation was interrupted by Andrew, who turned on the TV and told them to take a look at the broadcast that the police had set up; upon watching the live coverage, Kazuto and Alice, along with their friends, were horrified when they saw that the police had televised a montage showing off Kazuto's darkest secrets and the many unspeakable things that he had done during the SAO Incident to the public, which was followed by a speech by [[Forum:Diaval|Diaval Reitherman]], the director of the Intergalactic Peacekeeping Regime, who proclaimed that the videos that were previously leaked by an anonymous email were indeed real, explaining that Kazuto wasn't only a murderer and a beater, but also a corrupt sadist who didn't care about anyone other than himself. Kazuto's initial feeling of anger soon turned to dread when Diaval revealed that he and his wife, Dr. Malley Centius, had previously consulted with the Future Tech Industries corporation, led by Scheck; arranged for Sugou's release from prison in accordance with the reports detailing Kazuto's insane accusations against Asuna's ex-fiance and how he blackmailed the police into arresting the chairman of RECT Progress's Resarch Division, claiming that steps had been taken to ensure that Sugou's accuser didn't pose any more threat to the world ever again and that the civilians wouldn't have to suffer the traumatic nightmares they had endured during the Death Game Incident; and promised to help the authorities with restoring RECT Inc. to its previous glory and making Japan great again by hunting down the Black Swordsman to ensure that he answered for his crimes, which also included the recent murders of Kosaka and his group of anti-SAO protesters. Towards the end of the coverage, Diaval also assured them that the world would soon be safe again with his men around, not only declaring Kirito as the public's enemy, but also exposing his secret identity to the entire world, much to Kazuto's shocking dismay. | Tormented by this sickening revelation, Kazuto and his friends went back to the Dicey Cafe, where he attempted to track down Shino so that he could bring her back, but ran into Alice, who demanded to know why the two attackers were after him.

Now traumatized by Diaval's brutal revelation, Kazuto ran back to his relatives' house, where he retreated to his bedroom, struggling to take his mind off the fact that he was now a wanted fugitive, but | Now traumatized by Diaval's brutal revelation, Kazuto ran back to his relatives' house, where he retreated to his bedroom, struggling to take his mind off the fact that he was now a wanted fugitive, but worked up the courage to get back up when he suddenly received another message, but this time, instead of it being a death threat, it was a challenge from the masked kid, who told him to adopt his original ALO avatar and meet him at the post office. Knowing that the kid was serious, Kazuto accepted the challenge and put on his Spriggan character before heading for the post office; however, upon arriving, he found himself depowered to his status from when he first played ALO, a limitation that the teenager had implanted into the challenge to ensure that Kazuto fought him fair and square. When Kazuto asked the teenager why he tried to attack him, he revealed himself as Takeru, the Fire Warrior and a faithful servant of the Mistress of Evil, proclaiming that he came to Japan to help enforce the will that had been set upon the world by [[Forum:The Overtakers|a ruthless group of powerful beings]] that he pledged his loyalty to in an ongoing plan to bring peace and order to the galaxy, and that Kazuto's very determination to save his loved ones would soon become his undoing shortly before engaging with him in a brutal one-on-one fight. During the fight, Kazuto deflected the many attacks that Takeru sent against him with initial ease, but soon found himself losing energy when he tried to deliver a blow against his opponent. Shocked by this abnormal amount of strength that Takeru possessed, Kazuto asked him if he was a devil, but Takeru called him out for being too ignorant, explaining that he wasn't a monster in the same way that Kazuto wasn't a hero, revealing that he should be honored to be dueling him in the same place where Shino shot the middle-aged robber when she was a child. Angrily calling Takeru out for uttering her name, Kazuto attempted to inflict as much damage as he could upon him, but ended up suffering from his own attacks. Suddenly finding himself almost depleted of his health and losing his memories about Shino, Kazuto asked Takeru why he was doing this and why he suddenly stopped remembering her, to which he responded that he did this to himself and that the Overtakers did the entire world a favor by making a minor change to the timeline, one that he wouldn't be able to remember ever again. Satisfied with Kazuto's early defeat, Takeru knocked him unconscious long enough to teleport his previous victims all over his weakened opponent before leaving the scene; when Kazuto woke up, he found himself surrounded from all corners by the police officers, who immediately placed him under direct arrest for the murders of innocent SAO players, members of Kosaka's group, and the people whose blood were found all over him, for deliberately hijacking the network servers from ALO to gain an unfair advantage against Sugou, and for many other crimes against humanity, despite his attempts to tell them that he was framed. Handcuffing his arms and legs and branding him as a terrorist, they took him to a court, where he was found guilty and taken to the Kibutsuji Florianius Penitentiary, a maximum security prison where he was cruelly placed on death row without any privileges for him to earn or any sources of defense to protect him. | ||
