Plot

Part 1

On October 26, 2024 at around 6 PM, Kirito and Asuna arrived at Mahokl's workshop, delivering her requested materials they got from fighting a «Magnatherium», a bear-like monster known for dropping «Legendary Bear Fats». Also, they got the rest of the required materials from Agil, completing their end of the deal for their requested furniture. After a bit of banter Mahokl held up her end of the deal and gave them the grand table for 90% off and their made to order rocking chair. After the exchange Asuna inquired about the type of wood used for the large table, when Mahokl explained the five precious wood types of SAO. Kirito realized the only way to cut down a tree of this caliber for the table: Mahokl would need a master axeman. When Kirito asked about this axeman Mahokl quickly dismissed Kirito and changed the subject, asking Asuna about the rocking chair.

Part 2

After working out the specifics on chair measurments, Mahokl crafted and sold it to Kirito and Asuna for a bargin price compared to what a custom piece like this would cost. After thanking Mahokl, Asuna and Kirito teleported to Coral, the main town on the 22nd floor. After buying dinner ingredients they then returned home. After setting their new table Kirito and Asuna ate. After cleaning up dinner, the pair went onto the portch, standing together in the moonlight. They talked about where they'd set up the rocking chair, opting to buy a second to have one for the living room inside next to the fireplace, and one on the porch as well. Thinking about pricing for a second rocking chair, Kirito and Asuna speculated about Mahokl's need for the items they got for her in exchange for the first. They believed it could be for the notorious «ballista».

Moving inside, Kirito lit a fire in the fireplace and set the rocking chair next to it. Kirito then explained what a ballista is to Asuna, with them realizing the concept of the ballista being contradictory to The «Forfeiture». Asuna then speculated about who the mysterious axemaster is and whether they may be connected to both Mahokl and the production of the ballista. Kirito and Asuna both came to the same conclusion that Agil must be this mysterious axemaster. They then proceded to speculate on how and why Agil became disallusioned with Mahokl and his overall connection to her in general.

Part 3

On 27th October, at 10 AM Klein met Kirito and Asuna at an open air cafe located in Coral's teleport plaza. Asuna then informed Klein of their marraige, receiving a scream in response. The story was continued in Material Edition 19 "Sugary Days 9".
