A/N: Why do some readers dislike a character getting weak? Besides not being strong enough to backhand some young masters.

I prefer that Sora seals his strength to get stronger because it gives me more chances to add in some action and adventure. It's boring for me to add in a single line of action like, "He snapped his fingers and half of the population of the entire universe was wiped from existence."

Sure it's cool and all, but it is all boring when it's repeated over and over. I want Sora to grow not only strong but as a character, as well as the circ.u.mstances surrounding him change and his options narrow down.

It's better this way for me and for a growth in strength, which is actually making sense.

Having Sora OP all the time is boring since it will always be the same. The scenarios will always be repeating and so will the characters and their personalities. I'm getting bored of it, so I will be changing it up to the next volume.

For those who would like to stick around for god adventure, action, world building, and all that other nonsense can stick around. Sora will still be 'OP', but he will be going from strong to stronger.

Class: None

Durability 30/30

Sora smiled at the information that was displayed before tapping the screen and making it go away. Sora kept the short sword to train with it until he makes himself one.

Or until he makes a good wooden sword to practice and train with.

After the day in Underworld ended, Sora was pulled out of the game.

"You won't remember anything from the game, and you must have noticed that you won't remember a thing inside of the Underworld," said Seijiro as he greeted both Sora and Kirito.

Sora subtly nodded, not mentioning the fact that he remembered everything, which probably had to do with his strong soul, which is weakened since it is also going through the Rebirth stage like his body and essence. His mind had a bit to do with it as well, though not much help since it caused him headaches.

"I see, thank you for the experience I didn't experience," said Sora with a smirk as he got off the SoulDive machine and left, leaving Kirito and the rest behind.

He has a daughter to pick up, so he wasn't too keen on staying behind any longer.

Seijiro and Higa both smiled nervously after hearing Sora's remark about experience. They shook their heads helplessly before continuing on to Kirito who was still there with them.

…

'Ughh… that headache.' Sora rubbed his head in a bit of pain.

Because the SoulDive entered through a person's mind and then extracted the 'soul', Sora felt a headache because he tried to see if he could resist the machine with his mind.

Now he knew that he couldn't and that his mind was pretty weak against external forces. Even with the combination of Sora's soul cultivation, body cultivation, essence cultivation, world cultivation, tempering, spiritual energy, Nature Qi, Physiques, special bodies, meditation, and bloodlines, his mind had only managed to enhance his mind but not strengthen it.

'I should start cultivating my mind as well,' thought Sora as he picked up Yui before heading home with her on his shoulders.

…

Once at home, Sora spent some time with Yui before heading into his Realm of the Violet z Jade Immortal. Besides his Hidden Gates cultivation, the imprinting of the Immortal Dao Inscription Technique, and meditation, Sora added a new item into his practice, Mind Cultivation.

Sora looked through all the, now billions, of top end and various cultivation techniques, Sora managed to find a perfect Mind Cultivation.

<Immortal Sage's Immortality>

However, this technique was anything but that.

Besides not dampening the emotions, this cultivation technique even granted a bit of effects to the emotions. Anger increases strength depending on the intensity of anger and happiness can increase healing speed and the calming of the mind.

The inner version, or True Self, stays there, but it will now passively cultivate for the practitioner of Immortal Sage's Immorality.

The speed of cultivation can even increase the more immoralities one does.

Stealing, s.e.x, cucking another man, taking another persons prized possession, pride, over confidence…

Although some weren't immoralities, others would wish to disagree.

As soon as Sora began cultivating, his speed of cultivation instantly increased. This technique had nine realms and each realm had nine tiers. The instant Sora began cultivating, he instantly stepped into the first realm and on the third tier.

Sora's mind was greatly strengthened and tempered, increasing his strength by a tiny amount.

Continuing this routine until he was kicked out, Sora returned to his room where Yui looked at him, hoping to let her sleep with him.

…

Walking up the next day, Sora and Yui had breakfast before they separated.

Sora got Hiratsuka to enroll Yui at a school and have her attend. One that was over, Sora headed back to Rath where Seijiro was ready to send Sora into Underworld.

"You will appear outside of the village with everything you had yesterday. All to make it look like you had just left on a small journey. When you enter the game, only a day has passed, so you can return to your life there as if nothing happened."

After a lengthy explanation from Higa, Sora was finally sent into the Underworld.

…

With the copper sword at his waist and the blacksmith hammer in his hand, Sora headed back to the village smithy.

By the time he got there, Sadore had just opened his blacksmith shop, ready to forge some new weapons and sell them.

"Good morning!"

Melting the two metals slowly, Sora mixed them together and made sure to make them harmonize and enhance each other.

Sora removed the impurities and then brought it over to a knife mold.

Pouring in the molten metal into the mold, Sora let it sit as he went out of the smithy to let the knife take shape.

When Sora went out, he found the most stunning girl ever.

It almost seemed unnatural.

Her golden hair seemed to glow under the light of the sun and her blue eyes beautifully matched her golden hair. Her nice and super white skin was amazing and looked cold to the touch. However, contrary to the 'cold to the touch', a hint of rosiness was evident in her face, showing that she was evidently a warm beauty.

'Easy to the eyes and can quite possibly enrapture monks with the most absolved hearts,' thought Sora as he looked at the girl.

'Too bad she's only 11 or she would've been on my 'hit' list,' thought Sora with a chuckle as he approached the girl.

"Hi! I'm Heaven," said Sora as he extended his hand to the girl with a wide smile on his face.

"Hi, my name is Alice Zuberg," said the golden haired girl as she extended her tiny hand to Sora for a handshake.

"Do you know where I can find good materials or string wood?" asked Sora as he took a moment to take in the girl's natural beauty.

"Yes," Alice nodded. "Follow me, I'll take you to a place with good wood."

Sora nodded and followed behind Alice, who had unexpectedly brought him to Eugeo who was back at a hard day's work.

Looking at Eugeo trying to replicate the two moves Sora taught him the day before, Sora felt a sense of happiness.

'Attaboy,' thought Sora as he watched Eugeo go for those gains.

However, Sora noticed one more figure next to them, Kirito.

By the time Sora and Alice arrived there, Eugeo stopped swinging and Kirito began.

"Is this the 'good wood'?" Sora looked at Alice and asked her with a warm smile.

"Un! This is the strongest tree I know of," said Alice, placing her hands at her h.i.p.s and pushing her c.h.e.s.t out in pride.

Sora kept quiet and silently shook his head, "Then do you know any place with good material?"

"No… but there's a story about a knight and a dragon fighting," said Alice. Her eyes dusted over to a mountain not that far from them, covered in snow.

"..." Sora also looked over to the mountain and thought about visiting it.

"It's said that the Dragon and Knight fought up there and there's a sword and dragon sitting in wait there," said Alice absentmindedly.

Nodding, Sora and Alice finally made it to where Kirito and Eugeo were.

"Alice! Look, come meet my new friend, Kirito," said Eugeo as he ran to Alice and dragged her forward.

"Nice to meet you Kirito, I'm Alice." Alice turned to look at Eugeo and then to Sora before saying, "Come and meet MY new friend."

Eugeo followed Alice with a smile until he saw who her new friend was. His eagerness had quickly turned to shock as he looked at the rather handsome young boy who had long hair and a red crystal between his eyebrows. His piercing, yet crystal clear, eyes gazing at him deeply and those thick sharp eyebrows that made the boy look charming and enchanting.

"Heaven!" Eugeo yelled in shock and with some glee as he ran to Sora and jumped around him in giddiness. "I prémieme those moves you showed me and I feel like I'm already doing better than before!"

"You've had a solid foundation for a year hitting this tree. Having solid footing is a good thing," said Sora with a slight nod.

Alice looked at Sora and Eugeo with shock, surprised to know that Sora and Eugeo already knew each other. She was sad for a minute before brimming with happiness about having more friends.

"Now lets have some lunch!"

Alice sat down and placed the picnic basket she was carrying this whole time on the ground. She pulled out some food before handing them to Eugeo, who then passed the food to Sora and Kirito.

As the rest ate, Sora gazed up at the Giant Tree as he finished up the food that Alice had brought. And without thinking much about it, Sora jumped up the tree and scaled halfway up to the tree where he can see a good amount of branches.

Knowing that the tree is highly durable and can withstand a good hit, Sora still brought out the weak copper sword.

After taking it out, Sora didn't swing and used a sword skill right away, rather he stayed his move and focused on the sword.

He closed his eyes and focused his being onto the sword, lifting it up slowly. Without knowing, Sora had activated a sword skill, <Basic Hack>.

The sword glowed in a beautiful silver glow, slowly turning brighter and smaller. The light looked as if it was going to turn solid at any moment.

Sora was in the middle of a bunch of branches, where no light could escape. Alice, Eugeo, and Kirito were all oblivious to the young boy in the tree attempting to cut a branch of the Giant Tree for a wooden sword for training.

As Sora focused his being more and more into the sword, he had unknowingly used his will and placed it on the sword, making it stronger by many degrees. It instantly made the silver light condense onto the sword and carry Sora's will to cut straight through the branch.

With Sora's will being like his Qi, Intent, and even techniques, his Will was in a state of Myriad, conjoined of many intents, strengths, weaknesses, and wills. If he decided to use one intent out of every other thousands of intents, those other thousands of intents will strengthen that one intent instead of leaving it alone.

So with his Will's intent to cut straight through the branch, the sword began to shake in agony from all the strength contained within it. Vibrating at an immense speed not visible to the eyes from all the strength.

Just like that, Sora swung his sword down and cleanly cut through the branch noiselessly and effortlessly at an unperceived speed.

No special effects, no loud noises, nothing… a simple and clean strike. A basic move that carried immense profoundness and basic principle. A move so basic that it could make the heart, soul, spirit, and mind calm.

It was as serene as it is swift and deadly.
