In SAO, players who commit acts that are judged as criminals, such as stealing, harming other players, or killing them, have their cursors’ color changed from green to orange. Therefore, people refer to these criminal individuals as orange players and a guild that consist of them as orange guilds. Silica knew about this, but she had never seen them before. Yet Rosalia’s HP cursor, which she could see right in front of her eyes, was green no matter how she looked at it. Silica looked up at Kirito, who was standing next to her, and asked in a dry voice: “Hey... but... look... Rosalia-san’s, it’s green...” “Even in an orange guild, there are plenty of occasions when not all of the members are orange.

The person who was eavesdropping on us yesterday must be a member of her group as well.” “Wha-what...” Silica looked at Rosalia with shock and loathing. “The——then, the reason she partied with us for the past two weeks was because...” Rosalia smiled venomously once again and spoke: “Yeah~ I was checking out how strong the party was, and at the same time was waiting for them to grow fat on the money they earned through their adventuring. In fact, I was going to take care of them today.” She licked her lips as she stared at Silica.
