No One's POV
Y/n is currently 14 years old with parents named Takumi L/n and Kiyoshi L/n. He has H/l and H/c and are not tall but not short either he is a solid 5'8 with an athletic build. His eyes are a deep shade of E/c. Y/n plays 3 sports 2 he is great in and 1 he is average in these are. Basketball, Baseball, and Kendo he excels in basketball and baseball and he is average at best at kendo.
The way Y/n found out about SAO is simple. Y/n was at kendo practice when this girl from his class Suguha Kirigaya who is a champion at kendo is talking about this new game her brother has. She states that it is a Virtual Reality, Massive Multiplayer Online, and Role Playing Game but gamers call it a VRMMORPG.
Y/n saw something about a Beta Testing thing in the mail they gave out to apply for it but he just threw it in the trash. He now really regrets not trying it out to see if he could of gotten to beta test it which would have been cool. The game inspired him so he decided to go work for his money instead of asking his family to buy it for him. Sure his parents were rich but not loaded like some families Tokyo and Kyoto where he lives. Y/n didn't need a mansion he needs love and affection when he was 0-10 and from 11-18 he needs his friends more than anything.
But no matter how many friends he has none of them are going into Sword Art Online. Telling him that it is too stupid to go into a geeks game but Y/n was determined to show his friends how great it is and then once the next game on the NerveGear comes out they can all play together and have some fun. Success is what got Y/n to where he is today he got here through determination to master his skills in basketball and baseball. He even got decent at kendo not just a laughing embarrassment to his team through his blood, sweat, and tears he now knows that one day his luck will run out and he will have to face a big challenge in his life. But right now he is a hard working, sports loving maniac, with loving parents, and great friends.
He couldn't ask for more until that day October 10th 2022 when he said to his two parents who have seen him work so hard for the NerveGear he bought himself along with Sword Art Online. He said those words after kissing his mother on the forehead and giving his father a nod after breakfast.
Y/n heads upstairs to his room and turns on his NerveGear inserts SAO and goes through all the preparations to play the game. He wanted to prove his friends wrong that a kid who hasn't played MMOs or RPGs really ever can learn quickly and adapt to a gamer's world... maybe he can friend some experienced players or beta testers they will teach him.
