Yes and Kirito returned the favor. When the episode ended he said he was going to meet her in real life and introduce her to Leefa, Liz, Asuna, and Sinon. Kirito was a man of his word and by introducing her to her friends Girls' Ops was formed the members are Silica, Liz, Asuna, Leefa, and Sinon. Each has their own story on how they met. Silica was bullied by Titan's Hand and ran off into the woods where the Drunk Apes killed Pina her familiar. Kirito killed the apes and formed a party with her in exchange for her protection. After Kirito and Silica got the flower Titan's Hand ambushed them and Kirito defeated them and gave Titan's Hand a teliport crystal and a warrent for their arrest. With Titan's Hand behind bars Kirito apolagized for offering Silica as bait and they revived Pina. Kirito met Liz when he went sword shopping, he met Asuna when he killed the Floor 1 boss but did not open up to her until the duel and when he took out Krudeel, Leefa is his sister and he met her in ALO, and everyone met Sinon when Kirito cured her of her fear of guns after they took out Laughing Coffins in GGO and at Sinon's apartment.
