Asuna is ready to face being the heiress head on.

2. As my time as a teen comes to an end, it’s time to step up and take charge of the legacy
daddy left to me. I’m still scared and unsure, and I know there’s bound to be mistakes
made, but I’m only human after all.

3. Ready or not, here I come young adulthood. I’m going to face this new challenge head
on and give it all I’ve got! This is daddy’s precious legacy after all.

4. Asuna adds Artistic as her final trait, the requirement for her generation. And chooses
a LTW of Descendant of Da Vinci.

5. After the queue kicking graduation, Asuna registers as a self employed artist. It’s a
solitary career that has less chances to set herself on her fire like she would get if she was
in the Inventing career, which is one of the three skills she needs for Descendant of Da
Vinci.

6. Anitra: Yeah, I’m not getting to stay here.
Anitra like all other elders moves out and takes the elder cats with her, Ocelot and Lynx. Leaving
Asuna all alone in the house with Cotton Ball…or at least she thinks she’ll be all alone now…

7. Asuna: Why do I keep seeing you everywhere? Who are you?
“I could sense your loneliness, it’s deafening. I wanted to see if you needed a
friend.”

8. Asuna: Is it really that loud? My family never said anything about it.
“Your family has lost something precious, hasn’t it?”
Asuna: Like what?

9. “Your family has lost its magic.”
Asuna: My grandfather was a witch, my father said the magic that had been in the family
for seven generations died with him. But how did you know? Who ARE you?

10. “You can call me Kirito for now. I know about what happened because I was
there when your family lived in Moonlight Falls. Our king and queen can sense
others with magic. They also know when it’s lost too, that’s why I came, to bring
it back. I’d like to stay with you, if that’s alright, I promise I’m not dangerous.”

11. Asuna: At first, I was hesitant to allow Kirito to stay. I went to see my uncle
Mephisto to talk to him, he was born a fairy so maybe he’d know who this
Kirito was. I didn’t expect to come just when Cheetah was dying though.
Cheetah was part of Knight and Tiger’s litter and I grew up with the Lynx and
Ocelot, Cheetah’s siblings.

12. Mephisto: Why does everything and everyone I love age and die?
Asuna: I’m not dead Uncle Mephisto.
Mephisto: I do know about this Kirito Asuna, but right now I can’t talk about it.

13. Asuna: I know, I’m sorry Uncle, I just saw Jaguar go when I came here.
Mephisto: Exactly! Everything I love dies!

14. Asuna: All four of them were born at the same time, so I expect to hear that Lynx and
Ocelot will be joining them soon enough. At least Uncle Mephisto knows who Kirito is so
that’s a load off my mind. His mother lived in the same Court of the Fairies, at least that’s
what I assume Kirito meant when he was talking about a king and queen.

15. Asuna: My uncle says he knows you and I trust him. So I will give you the benefit of the
doubt for now.
Kirito: I’m glad, I just hope he doesn’t paint me in a bad light. I’m not a bad guy.
Asuna: I would hope not.

16. Kirito: Let me prove it.
Even if the family’s magic was lost, there was still enough left in the bloodline to be able to feel
what Kirito was talking about. Feelings can be unreliable, but sometimes, they are right on the
mark. And this was one of those times.

17. Taking this next step is part of being the heiress, I need to find someone to finish this
legacy with. Kirito proved he was trustworthy and I got the confirmation from Uncle
Mephisto. He is the one who will finish this legacy with me.

18. Asuna: You will tell me about the Court of the Fairies some day right?
Kirito: Of course I will. You trusted me and now it’s my turn to trust you. There
is a lot to explain…

19. Kirito: Sealing our bond is crucial to that.
Asuna: I want to see what the future holds and I’ll gladly walk that path with
you Kirito.

20. The future that awaits the tenth generation is about to begin, where do all these roads
lead? What will the end of a line of Sinners produce? Soon it will all come together.
