for A Place in my Dreams3/18 c5 October Autumn
Still liking the story ,even I wished your update was better and I didn't care for the 1st chapter.
I wanted to theorize on what exactly Shino/Sinon's roles is going to be in the fic. I doubt the authors gonna leave her out of the harem and would be surprised if she was. She's a main character in canon that also has significant interactions with Kazuto and one that's popular in the SAO fanbase.
The real question is what kind of supernatural she'll be. Her being another Hime Miko,Mage,or Witch is very unlikely. Seerking already has the main magic user trio covered with Tomo,Keiko,and Rika. I don't think she'll be a normal person either,since while it would be funny to see people react to how BS Sinon's marksmanship skills are,Seer already has two characters in the harem who are already that:Asuna and Suguha.
So that's leaves the options I think are likely from least to most likely. She could be a Heaven Witch. The least likely because I can't see Seer repeating magic user types like that. But considering her abilities,her having Heaven Witch precog/esoteric abilities would give a different skillset than Rika and compliment her nicely.
The second option is that she's some kind of OC Witch. We know from Seer's other Campione fic that he's fine with making non canon Witch types so the magic system and worldbuilding is more fleshed out so it's solid option for him to take.
The third is what's most interesting. Seer could take a page from the Campione sequels and make her a reincarnated god. It's a type of supernatural that doesn't overlap with any of the ones already in the harem. And sure, canonically, they only show up in the alternate dimensions,but there's nothing saying they couldn't be a thing for Goudou's dimension.
The easy explanation could be is that their just a lot rarer there,than they are in other dimension. As to what God she'd be a reincarnation of? Probably one that has marksmanship/archery as a domain,if not a main one.

I still like this story for the most part,but I have to admit that the battle between Kirito and Morpheus is really underwhelming,especially since it's the battle meant to show how and why he became a Campione. It's not a good first chapter.
The way Morpheus is portrayed has him looking stupid and unimpressive for a Heretic God. Despite his domain and how SAO is tailored made for him to take full advantage,he only uses it once and it's done in a way that gives his opponent an unnecessary 'd think that he'd go full in on using his terrain altering abilities ,let alone the other stuff he probably do with his dream domain. And he stupidly let's Kirito get free hits on him he could've dodged.
The way Kirito is handled isnt better. He doesn't feel like he had to work that hard to win. There is no believable logic or plan that's shown in the text to have it justified why he won at all.
I had to go back and read Raging Tides so I could make a comparison and IMO that fight was much better than this one. There was a plan that Jean and Rebecca came up with to defeat Poseidon and it was believable given their skillsets and abusing Heretic God arrogance. And even then,it still felt like it was very close. It made sense Poseidon wasn't using 100% of his abilities not only because his arrogance,but sense of honor,so he chose to do a weapons duel,rather do the smart thing.
In this fic,it's lacking that same context. Raging Tides came out 6 years earlier and managed to get that right,so I don't know what happened here. It's dissapointing

So, I feel like 3 gods that have authority in dreams would tangentially be able to deal with mind control, like being able to bring a person's unconscious mind to the front. Whether or not Kirito inherited an ability like that might be something to look out for. Or, more likely, killing the caster or divine ancestor or heretic god or whatever will break the spell.

Congrats, whoever ensorcelled Suguha, you are about to become geography.(Love that line from Boldores and Boomsticks!) Kirito is borderline insane when it’s a friend, but this (adopted) sister? Adios.

Good to see a new chp on this story. The SAO/Campione blend is interesting,especially since the Campione half takes place years after the original series ended. Meaning that Kirito is dealing with an entirely different political landscape as a Campione than Godou,which helps this story be more distinct from the canon series. It'll be fun to see how being a Campione affects canon SAO events,especially Alicization.
As for how Asuna will react to the harem and what Morpheous gift is... A few reviewers have already mentioned that Asuna would probably accept the harem idea out of practicality(having other girls she already knows/cares for Kirito defend against honey traps) if nothing else, which I agree with. I doubt she'd be willing to let the other SAO girls date Kirito just yet and that will come later.
I think there's a good chances other SAO girls manage to convince her since not only are they fellow SAO survivors and friends/comrades,they are informed about the supernatural community in general and about the realities of Kirito being a Campione than Asuna is.
I really hope that SeerKing doesn't just throw any girl into the harem that Kirito has had a positive interaction with. One of the main issues with harem stories is how they bloat the harem and the girls get no characterization.
Pokemon Reset IMO is the gold standard for how that should be handled,not only developing the girls relationship with their LI,but also as individuals and with each other.
IMO,there's only really 2 other girls that have had enough significant interaction/screentime and are prominent enough that I feel that them being in the harem is warranted:Sinon and Alice.

In the last chapter there was an "AGRO" instead of "ARGO".
I see the authority Kiri-boy will soon gain.

Finally an update, holy crap... It was a good chapter, and the next god in question is Greek, again, or maybe Roman.
Divine charm, well, I guess it's an intrinsic ability in practically any deity anyway, so it doesn't tell you much, then there's her chess piece, the theme of prophecy games, and all that, so, I guess it's Caissa, being a Greek dryad turned chess muse, but she's not a myth from antiquity but was created in the 18th century, derived from a poem written by Sir William Jones. If that's the case, then she'd be an older goddess linked to war, perhaps Bellona of the Romans, or Enyo herself who is the sister of Ares, and later acquired the identity of Caissa.
It would be an interesting twist, really, although I don't recommend using gods from the same pantheon so continuously, but whatever, I know that what comes out will be of great quality... We'll probably have to wait a damn year to see a new episode...
Aghhhhh!
At least give us more of Raging Tides, please...
