[Aincrad Night] 3rd Night

On the third night, Kirito was visited by... Strea! So the topic of this story is naturally going to be boobs. Like the previous chapter, a story from the One Thousand and One Nights is referenced... solely as an excuse to get Strea in a bath towel, apparently. Though, since the manga still does a poor job at making sense of the story it references, here's a short summary of the actually relevant part:

A guy spent two years with the Queen of Serpents and was warned that if he entered a bath, it would lead to the queen's death. Eventually, due to circumstances, he did enter a bath and was thus found and summoned by the king, who suffered from leprosy and was at death's doors. The cure for the king was the meat of the Queen of Serpents and only the man knew where to find the queen.

For reference, I used this translation to look up the plot. I have no idea if Strea's comment about the French translation is accurate. Also, I can't believe I read that thing when the story, with two other irrelevant stories inside of it, was only referenced to get Strea in a bath towel... And of course the only actually relevant part of the story was only covered at the very end... :| Well, at least on the plus side, this chapter had some nice reactions.

Thanks to all of those who contributed to the SAO Scans project for helping us get the raws.

Any feedback is appreciated. A Batoto link will most likely be posted the following day. I recommend reading the PDF version for now to see the images more clearly.
