Fifty-two days have passed since ten thousand players were caught in the death trap of the game "Sword Art Online", where the death of a virtual character leads to real death. The only way to beat this game is to defeat the boss on the top, hundredth floor of the giant Aincrad castle. Current date: December 28, 2022. A little over two months have passed, and Kirito and Asuna have reached the fifth floor. Unlike the fourth floor, which had changed greatly from the beta test and turned into a water area, the fifth floor that appeared before the heroes was familiar to Kirito and was a destroyed area. In this area, similar to a maze with almost completely absent natural objects , such as forests and rivers, Kirito and Asuna embarked on the best "relic hunt" in the game and continued collecting items and colla. Having temporarily returned to the fourth floor and received a reward from the lord of the dark elf castle Yofilis, Kirito offered to complete the task of clearing mobs in the underground cemetery under the city. Asuna agreed, but that's when her troubles started. After all, monsters awaited her in the quest, against which the rapier is no good. So... Will Asuna be able to overcome her fear and pass the fifth floor?..
