Heathcliff explained to Kirito that he had to engage the system’s assist mod
when defending (against Kirito's attack) because he's (Kirito) so fast. But
how was he able to automatically access it? I know that he is the GM but we’ve
seen that even GMs have to either utter a voice command or navigate through
the menu in order to instruct the system.

How was Heathcliff able to use the 'assist mod' mid-battle?


I think the reason why Heathcliff was able to do so lies in the fact that
NerveGear works by scanning the brain wave. It receives input by reading the
brain wave as the person equipping it thinks about something. For example,
when we talk, the words are formed in our mind and the brain sends pulses to
our mouth and voice cord to produce sound matching the words formed. This
pulses is what the nerve gear receives as input, and at the same time,
prevents the actual organ from receiving it.

It is possible that for his account, he has a feature where he can activate or
deactivate game feature simply using his mind. That is, he can command the
system by thinking about it. No need for him to think of moving his hands and
access the control panel.

The reason is actually simple if you understand a very important explanation
and demonstration from Yui, in the anime Epsidode 12, Yui's Heart. To explain
what is happening, Asuna and Kirito meet and adopt a young stranger girl who
seems alone wandering through a forest, and they choose to take her in and
nurse her back to health hoping she would awake from a big collapse in the
middle of the forest, as in the episode prior, episode 11, the girl of
mountain dew, Kirito and Asuna immediately after witnessing her fall and being
passed out automatically have their emergency and game analysis of every
possible conceivable reason for her to be there alone, too young for a normal
player and the big clue of no cursor which every player always has no matter
their circumstance not show. So she of course surprises them with a healthy
dose of amnesia when finally awaking, and it's bad enough to basically not
have her remember her lifes entire past. Parents, age, the most basic person
with amnesia still knows that and she was to Quota asuna like a blank slate,
even affecting her vocabulary and her learning of language. But the point to
take away is that this situation was a first to give off too many flags that
it should have called their suspicion of the icon even harder consering it was
made to be a major notification. And it was clearly noted that she had to have
barely been playing because of the comments on her gear and the way Kirito
mentions she must not have been in any fights. Jumping ahead to conciude the
next day they quest together and find a floor boss not expecting one and
seeming to Kirito to be likely the highest level boss they've seen so far and
krito and asuna were trapped with the option to fight and die or just get
killed. Getting nearly a death blow blocking one attack Yui who was hiding
comes out, seems to act like a normal human, but then confronts the boss head
to head, magically sunnons a sword thats on fire and does a super high jump
skull splitter taking it out. We find out she is AI.. AI is a program.
Everything that is run in Aincrad has something to run it.. mentions are what
the bosses drops,etc etc... Basically everything that makes the world aincrad,
it is all controlled by a sydttem a computer system, or you can say an AI.
This AI is the famous Cardinal System you hear so much about but don't really
get to understand. You find out Yui is an AI, she is given specific privileges
as that Pegram and had general Admin access to the system. That's a lot of
privileges. So what she did on her own with no need for any assist needs was
not mutter words or anything and have a superior weapon be given to her and
she gained the immortal object foecedield on demand preventing an attack to
touch her yet never made specific sudo instructions to do so. The commander is
able to use the system to pick and choose who he wanted to paralyze easily,
although it seemed like he used an assistant remote control to help him make
changes to his world he made. That should be enough to show that you like both
Yui and healthcliff as we learned both uses the system assist mode, which just
seems to give them invincibility. and remove it on demand. also as it was the
cardinal system that granted those rights, both had Admin access which meant
they had control to manipulate the system to do whatever they wanted the
cardinal to do. and the final instruction to self destruct and erase the world
was an opinion that was one of who knows how many commands are possible. So
human or no human (meaning no nerve gear) Both effectively used the cardinal
system very effectively to eliminate the problems that they each had to use.
They needed to be Admin. And 2mwe find out that the AI Yui can summon weapons
and take a direct hit with no damage by having some kinda foecedield. Both
seem to have their defense kick in automatically. Only Yui seemed different
summoning an item. you do login into the game. heathcliff probably had an
admin account. he used privls by using his hand console. he could have like
mentioned in other boss battles had it automatically control for him. Yui
didn't need any hardwar3 She's a computer. she tells of give Admin privs on
day one. apparently you just have to need to know how it works.
