Sword Art Online Episode 4

 

The Black Swordsman

 

This is Silica, dragon tamer extrodinare. Though the class she is in is reffered to as beast tamers. We open up with a scene of her and the guild she's in, arguing with the leader, Rosalia.

 

Presumably, she quits and goes off into the forest by herself trying to get out. Now, Pina-her dragon friend-is killed while trying to protect her from a beast. The creature also has the ability to heal others. Interesting, huh?

 

Well, Kirito of course saves her. He always has time to save random women in peril.

 

 

They become friends over a small amount of time. Kirito tells Silica about an item at the Hill of Memories on 47th floor. This item could revive Pina within three days of it's death. Kirito also extends a helping hand of going with her to look for it.

 

But first we must have cheesecake! (that's what the above picture is from)

 

Later in the room, Kirito notices someone is eavesdropping on them. He rushed out to catch them in the act, but they are gone.

 

 

After being patted down by a low level giant monster flower Silica makes her way to the Hill of Memories without to much further perverted plants catching her unguarded.

 

"Don't look Kirito!"

 

She gets there just fine and picks the flower. Now all she has to do is get into a safe zone (aka. town) and she can revive Pina.

 

Right?

 

 

Wrong. You may not pass this is bridge troll.

 

Rosalia is back with some different guild members, Titan's Hand. The guild is one of 'orange players', they commit crimes and are after the Pneuma Flower that Silica holds.

 

At this point her guildians come out from behind the trees to attack Kirito, the only person standing in the way of their goal.

 

 

Unfortunetly for them, Kirito is a much higher level and can regenerate a certain amount of health over a few seconds of time. The Titan's Hand 'goons' don't the power to go over that health and therefore can't hurt him at all. Which explains why it looks like he's not losing any health.

 

Realizing they can't fight him they stop to realize he is "the black swordsman", a beater. Then Kirito reveals that he has been using Silica as bait to lure out Rosalia-which he apologizes for to the beast tamer.

 

After that he sends them to prison. Pina is also later revived and Kirito sticks around long enough to promise Silica that he will meet her in the real world.
