Perfect—I went to the department store today and haven’t eaten anything yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it was newly released, the NERvGear terminals were in high demand; to play a death game with Kazuto, Shengzai had lined up first thing in the morning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Shengzai opened the dojo’s front door, Suguha naturally followed him inside and changed into her own slippers at the entrance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shengzai’s house was a two-story building; the ground floor was the sword dojo, while the second floor was where he lived and slept.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground-floor dojo was simply arranged: wooden racks held rows of bamboo swords, and in the center of the hall hung two large calligraphy scrolls, reading “Wenren” and “Perseverance.””\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, this time of day would have seen many people coming to practice swordsmanship, but since Shengzai’s grandfather passed away, the dojo had been temporarily closed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the only ones still practicing swordsmanship in this dojo were Shengzai and Suguha beside him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shengzai-ge, haven’t you ever thought about reopening the dojo? Isn’t that also what Wenren Grandpa wished for?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the empty, silent dojo, Suguha’s face wore an expression of melancholy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She truly loved kendo, and she also loved this place that held most of her childhood; she didn’t want the Wenren family’s dojo to fade away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To reopen the dojo, I’d need to be an adult first to have the legal right to run it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides, I’m busy with a lot of things now—even if I wanted to reopen it, I’d probably lack the ability.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reopening the family’s sword dojo had indeed been one of Shengzai’s original plans.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, running a dojo was still quite profitable these days, especially in Japan, where bushido was still revered and kendo remained popular.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what was true before was no longer true now; originally, Shengzai had thought he was just an ordinary transmigrator.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now that he had a cheat system, merely opening a dojo would be too embarrassing for the transmigrator army.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph, so the ‘a lot of things to do’ you mentioned is this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suguha had naturally noticed the NERvGear box Shengzai was holding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Suguha rarely paid attention to games, NERvGear’s full-dive technology was a groundbreaking product; she had seen it on the news.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your brother must’ve made you buy it—seriously, he wastes his own time, and now he’s dragging Shengzai-ge down with him!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When I get home, I’m definitely going to give him a good scolding!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shengzai-ge, you’re a sword prodigy—Wenren Grandpa had such high hopes for you; you can’t let yourself fall into decline!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the girl’s words, Shengzai couldn’t help but feel a flush of embarrassment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the girl was a year younger than both him and Kazuto, it was often them who got scolded.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And since arriving at Shengzai’s home, Suguha acted as if it were her own house—she not only placed the little cakes she brought on a plate, but also brewed the accompanying buckwheat tea.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be blunt, Suguha probably knew the placement of every daily item in Shengzai’s house better than he did.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Shengzai wolf down the little cakes, Suguha rested her chin on her hands, gazing at him with a blissful expression.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So today, you didn’t eat anything and got up early just to buy this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shengzai-ge, you’re like my brother this way—I really don’t understand, is this game really that fun?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the NERvGear on the table, Suguha was genuinely displeased.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the dojo closed, Shengzai had spent far less time practicing swordsmanship with her; if he started playing this NERvGear, his time with her would shrink even further.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was all Kazuto’s fault—wasting his own time was bad enough, but now he was dragging the excellent Shengzai-ge down with him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not just about playing games—according to Kazuto, this SAO is a full-dive game.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That means the character’s movements sync completely with our consciousness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And according to Kazuto, it’s a game centered on swords—real-world kendo masters can perform excellently in-game.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since I don’t have any suitable opponents in real life, I might as well find strong ones in the game.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In the game, no one will care that I’m a middle schooler, and I can train my awareness and reaction speed—so I accepted Kazuto’s invitation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Shengzai’s explanation, Suguha’s face lit up with sudden understanding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course—she knew Shengzai-ge was nothing like her useless brother; while her older brother played games just for fun, Shengzai-ge was doing it to advance his kendo—there was a decisive difference!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If that’s the case, then I won’t say anything more. By the way, are there still any civilian NERvGear units left at the department store?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl, who had previously resisted NERvGear, now felt a sudden interest in SAO after Shengzai’s explanation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if she thought about it, if she played SAO too, then her time spent with Shengzai-ge wouldn’t decrease—perhaps it would even increase!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just imagining that possibility made Suguha’s heart burn with excitement.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right now, it’s probably impossible to buy one—and SAO’s public test starts tonight, Suguha, you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shengzai-ge, I’ve got something to do, I’m leaving now. You can leave the dishes—I’ll wash them later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Shengzai could finish speaking, the girl had already dashed out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Suguha’s retreating figure, Shengzai let out a deep sigh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shengzai knew exactly what Suguha intended to do—but honestly, he didn’t want her to join them in SAO; this was a game where you could die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, knowing how scarce NERvGear units were and that today was SAO’s public test, he figured Suguha couldn’t possibly have gotten one—so he breathed a sigh of relief.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Kazuto called specifically, worried Shengzai would flake on him or didn’t know how to use the device.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hanging up with Kazuto, Suguha’s call came right after, regretfully informing Shengzai she hadn’t managed to buy a NERvGear unit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she’d already asked a friend to secure one for her—she was certain she’d join them in the game in two days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“FullDive—!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After connecting the device, a digital chime sounded, and Shengzai’s consciousness instantly entered the virtual game!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1046,"2026-06-19T15:18:33.595Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","1b9df136a4ccab898e7f1836983d6cbbe2f6d16db3e58eac6a7d723de65da848","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-off-invinc-chapter-4","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-off-invinc-chapter-2",587,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsimultaneously-transmigrated-starting-off-invinc-cover.jpg"]
