Middle schooler Yukina Himeragi, meanwhile, is the attack mage sent to observe him - and to stop him if he gets out of control.

Kirito plunges into a suspicious new VRMMORPG called ALfheim Online to rescue Asuna, who never returned from Sword Art Online.

Playing as a Spriggan, Kirito heads for the location of Asuna's prison - the top of the World Tree, the final destination of every player in the game! Along the way, Kirito nearly falls to a plot hatched by the enemy Salamanders, just barely surviving the ordeal with the help of a Sylph named Leafa and his Navigation Pixie, Yui. But just as Kirito and Leafa make it to the foot of the World Tree, the end of their quest in sight, both Kirito and Leafa each realize the other has a very big secret!

The saga of Sword Art Online continues with three side stories set during the Aincrad and Alfheim eras.
