Preview

 * The following is the translated preview to Volume 14, taken from the back of Accel World Volume 16.

"Kirito... it's all, up to you now... Protect... the people... of this... world..."

The white tower, the «Central Cathedral», the emblem of the «Axiom Church».

With the help of the sage who lives in the isolated Great Library Room, «Cardinal», Eugeo and Kirito run towards the cathedral's top floor where the highest minister, «Administrator», awaits, with their respective goals of returning Alice, who became an Integrity Knight, to her «original self», and of avoiding the destruction of the Underworld.

However, conciding, unforeseen incidents had led Kirito and Eugeo to be separated in their ascent.

While Kirito was thrown outside the tower, he formed a temporary union with Integrity Knight Alice and returned to the warfront, chasing after Eugeo who continued on within the tower.

And thus, they arrived at the 99th floor.

Appearing before Kirito and Alice was Eugeo, clad in integrity knight armor with a cold light in his eyes.

Eugeo, his sword drawn without hesitation, and Kirito, facing him reluctantly.

Would distant clap of thunder on the day they set off, that omen of conflict and separation, be realized?

Would Kirito's desperate cries reach Eugeo with his memories sealed away?

The new 14th volume, "Alicization Uniting", will be launched on 10th April, 2014, by Dengeki Bunko—!

Part 1
Kirito and Eugeo attacked each other with «Sonic Leap», although Kirito used some tricks to make his move faster and stronger, Eugeo managed to match him, making Kirito realize all the extra hours of training Eugeo had. Kirito tried to talk with Eugeo, but he remained silent, while Kirito decided to fight seriously, he also thought about which memories had been stolen from Eugeo.

Both skills ended at the same time, and after the rebound, both swordsmen used the same moves. During the clash, the blades got entwined again, and Kirito exposed his thought about fighting Eugeo seriously during their trip to Centoria. After a while, Kirito fell backwards and, although Alice thought he had lost, Kirito was actually activating the Martial Arts skill «Crescent Moon», aiming to kick Eugeo on his jaw, but the latter decided to use his sword's pomel to misdirect Kirito's attack. Kirito slowed down his kick and instead, kicked Eugeo's hand and sent the Blue Rose Sword flying and the swords stabbed into the ceiling.
