The First Day of Marriage! Unending Misery!...

Nearly an entire day had passed since that unprecedented wedding in SAO...

Though only one day had passed, the matter had already spread throughout all of Aincrad, becoming an indispensable topic of conversation during players' downtime. Whether they were leveling or going about their daily activities, people inevitably brought up yesterday's wedding for a few remarks, proving just how great an impact it had had on everyone...

In every inn, every public place, and along every street, players could hear others discussing yesterday's wedding at regular intervals. Even out in the wild, they sometimes heard passing players mention it. Clearly, there was no one left in this game world who did not know about yesterday's wedding!

Of course, though the wedding was the center of discussion, not all the talk headed in a positive direction. Some criticized it, some cursed it, some were resentful. Those who started such topics were often people who coveted Asuna, or Asuna's fans. Others were simply jealous and envious of Wu Yan. Some even cursed him for wasting money. In short, there was every kind of reaction imaginable. No matter what, though, yesterday's wedding would surely remain the favorite topic on everyone's lips for some time to come...

Worth mentioning was that some players still seemed unable to accept the news that Asuna had gotten married. They had actually formed a Protest Association and lodged a protest against the newlywed couple, demanding that Wu Yan release their beloved Lady Asuna. They made it sound as though Wu Yan had forced Asuna to marry him. What was even more jaw-dropping was that quite a few people had responded to them!

"Isn't this just too damn ridiculous?!"

After learning about it from today's newspaper, Wu Yan could neither laugh nor cry. He was completely thrown off balance.
