Barely managing to register for BoB in time, Kirito will be competing in Block F of the preliminary tournament. Sinon is also in Block F, and there's a chance that they'll clash in the final. They promise each other to go all-out if they do meet.

The man in the ragged cloak is an SAO survivor... This thought consumes Kirito to the point that it worries Suguha. Meanwhile, Shino can't shake off her irritation towards Kirito, and she launches into a tirade, swearing that she'll defeat him.

Attacked from behind by Death Gun, Sinon has her back to the wall. Death Gun's weapon is, oddly enough, the same gun that Sinon used to kill the bank robber. Death Gun tries to kill Sinon, stunned by flashbacks, in order to motivate Kirito.

After escaping from Death Gun, Kirito and Sinon lay low in a desert cave. There, Kirito speculates on how Death Gun murdered other players. In doing so, he hits upon a certain terrifying possibility.
