Konno Yuuki

Konno Yuuki (紺野木綿季) was one of the players of «ALfheim Online». She leads the guild «Sleeping Knights», a group of terminally ill patients who play using the FullDive Technology MediCuboid. She is also known as Zekken, or Absolute Sword. She won 67 consecutive duels on the street, including Kirito, although Kirito was only using one sword at that time. Kirito stated that her reaction speed was even higher than his and she was much more immersed into virtual reality than he was. She spent her last moments while logged on ALO in Asuna's arms, surrounded by her friends and more than a thousand other players.

Background
Prior to becoming known as Yuuki of ALO, Konno Yuuki was a child suffering from "Acquired Immunity Difficiency Syndrome" (AIDS) since birth; her parents, as well as her sister (Aiko) were infected too. Despite this, she had always believed that one day she would be healed and continued to strive towards her goals. However, during the course of 4th grade, a group of students found out that Yuuki was a carrier of HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) and began spreading rumors about Yuuki. Because of this, Yuuki was forced to transfer to another school. After transferring to a new school, Yuuki's condition gradually became worse and the reason suspected by her doctor was from the rejection caused by the parents and teachers of her old school. Her parents died two years, and her sister the year before the events of Sword Art Online and ALfheim Online.
