"Woooow, so this is the 2nd floor" Chris spoke while glancing around the 2nd floor they are now finally here the decided to check the floor first then go back to Arthur"s shop 3 days later to collect Asuna"s equipment and rapier."Yes, It really is beautiful" Said Asuna.
Red didn"t care and he just let his two companions enjoy the scenery.
"Okay, let"s go the both of you are close in levels. Chris just support Asuna later we will be facing level 24 monsters today because I need to boost Asuna"s level so that she can equip her new equipments." Red said then scanned the area.
Chris nodded while Asuna have a determined look and was already holding her rapier.
They made their way towards the river bank to find some monsters when suddenly something came out of the water and blocked them.
It was a humanoid monster with orange scales and spiky back it didn"t have any weapon but it"s claws were sharp enough to deal heavy damage to any adventurers.
"Lizard Warrior It is a level 23 monster looks like we will be hunting lizards for a while" Red murmured while looking at the lizard in front of them.
Chris and Asuna immediately unsheated their weapon and was already in battle mode, Red nodded seeing them serious and took out his sword.
Red dashed towards the lizard and immediately made a 5 hit combo sending it flying, Asuna then started running behind Red after seeing him finishing his combo.
"Switch!"
Red backed away and let Asuna finish the lizard she charged her rapier then with a flash she already stabbed the lizard 10 times killing it on the process.
Asuna was suddenly engulfed in golden light that made her happy.
"You levelled just after killing that lizard looks like you also got alot of experience when I killed the floor boss yesterday." Red said while looking at the gleeful Asuna.
Hearing Red"s question Asuna nodded in confirmation "Yes, I was already at 86% so this lizard warrior will surely give alot of experience. Leeet"s gooo!"
Asuna was all fired up and ready to kill more monster and led the way even though she has the lowest level.
Red then followed behind Asuna with Chris beside him and they continued slaughtering the Lizard Warriors on the river bank.
"Pheeew, that was a successful hunt dont you think Chris?" Asuna asked with a wide smile because she was now level 16 while Chris was 18.
"Uh-huh you should be thankful to boss because if he didn"t boosted us we will only gain like 1 level a day." Chris said while staring at the back of his boss.

Asuna glared at Chris and replied "Hmp! Ofcourse I know that I just feel like it isn"t proper to thank him because we are already teammates. It would feel distant if I will thank him everytime he does something for me." Asuna"s voice kept getting lower and lower as she talks.
.
Chris laughed and agreed "I know how you feel, I"m
already indebted with my boss for life so I just kept
asking anything I want because I already chose to follow
him blindly and do everything he ask me to."
"Yeah, we"re lucky to have Red guiding us." Asuna said while watching the view.
Red who was just walking infront of them chose to ignore their conversation and continue walking back to the town that is situated on the 2nd floor.
When they arrived at the town they chose a random inn to stay and ordered food.
While waiting for their meal they heard some adventurers gossiping.
"Have you heard the news? there"s already some who made a guild" said adventurer 1.
"Really? if he can make a guild this early it means he is pretty strong don"t you think?" adventurer 2 chirped.
"Hey hey, what is the name of the guild and who is the one who made it?" adventurer 3 asked.
Adventurer looked at his 2 companions and said "The guild is called Guardians and it is being led by a player named Diabel."
When the trio heard the name of the guild leader they were surprised.
"To think that Diabel have managed to form a guild I guess almost all those players we brought at the boss raid are now part of his guild" Red said then drank his wine.
Chris nodded in agreement then asked suddenly "Boss, why don"t we also create a guild?" Asuna who was seated beside Red looked at him intently wanting to hear his answer.
Red shook his head and replied "Having a guild is fine but I don"t like managing stuffs, my goal is to form the strongest party in SAO. we already have 3 members so I"m searching for 3 more to complete my party."
Chris and Asuna asked in unison "Strongest Party?"
Red nodded then said with confidence "Yeah, a party that can even contend with the top guilds.
Chris and Asuna were shocked hearing this, and Chris murmured "A party that even guilds will be afraid of Hahahahahahaha! My boss is really the best!"
Red rolled his eyes at Chris and berated him "It will only happen if you stop being dependent and strive for yourself."
Chris hearing this became embarssed and replied sheepishly "But, I don"t think that It will ever happen. you"re my boss so ofcourse I will always depend on you."
"Yeah yeah, sh*t up and let"s eat the food is already being served" Red said while looking at the NPC serving their dishes.
Asuna smiled seeing their interaction and felt blessed being part of their group.
