After Sora and Alice had established themselves at the Sword Mastery Academy, a few weeks started passing by.

Sora had astounded many of the young swordsmen at the academy, also receiving some backlash from nobles who already disliked Sora because of his good looks and him being accompanied by a beauty like Alice.

The only response Sora had given them was a laugh at their childish thoughts.

Sora trained a small group of students and had them repeat their sword skills until the students felt like their arms were going to fall off.

"Sir Heaven!"

Sora turned around and turned to the old man who called out his name, Loro.

"I have brought over a bright individual who has talents for the sword," said the old man jovially.

Sora turned his head in mild surprise, he knew if the old man complimented someone on their talent or sword skills it must be something great. The old man has a high skill in the sword, but because of that, it is equally difficult to please him with rubbish skills and talent.

Sometimes Sora was similar, but he would always keep his pride to a low level.

"Where are they?" Sora asked curiously.

"She'll be here any moment now. I hope you can take her in as your personal student," the old man bowed his head a little until a young woman entered the training room.

She has very long, straight, dark brown hair tied in a ponytail with a lilac ribbon, and navy blue eyes that resemble a sky fading into twilight.

The young woman was truly beautiful. Sora also noticed the talent the woman had as he stared at her movements. The old man was telling the truth about this young woman's talent.

An exceptional talent that she may as well have the title as a genius.

Whoever trained her before was an incompetent fool who was a fake Swordsman.

Sora's eyes twitched a little as he took notice of some flaws in the young woman's movements. Which obviously came from a fake Swordsman that tried teaching the young woman with no real essence of swordsmanship in his teachings.

"Greetings, I am Sortiliena Serlut, a third year student at this academy," said the young woman with a bow, showing her respect for Sora. "I heard that Master Heaven was a godly swordsman with unrivaled sword skills."

"Never believe what you hear from others, always believe in the sword and what you experience," said Sora as he listened to Sortiliena. "However, it is true that I am unrivaled in sword skills."

Although sounding arrogant, what Sora said was nothing but the truth. By now, his sword skills were already something way above what anyone could achieve in this world. Even the White Dragon Sword at his waist is also unrivaled, able to cut through anything like a hot knife in butter.

"If it wouldn't be too much disrespect, can the esteemed instructor Heaven give me a pointer," said Sortiliena with a beautiful and gentle smile on her face. She didn't think much of the arrogant sounding words of Sora's, but she paid great attention to his beginning words.

"Great!"

Sora chuckled and walked to the middle of the training ground with Sortiliena.

Once they stood at the middle of the training ground, both Sora and Sortiliena faced each other. Sortiliena pulled out her sword and pointed it at Sora.

Once Sortiliena felt ready, she focused on Sora and noticed his show movements to his sword. She furrowed her eyebrows as she wondered why he moved so slow, however, the more the hand approached the hilt, the more Sortiliena felt pressure emanating from her opponent.

Sweat rolled down her face as she struggled to remain standing straight. When Sora's hand was a finger length away from the sword, Sortiliena felt a sharp pain in her head.

"Ah!"

Sora stopped and revealed a small smile before thinking, 'Talented indeed. She was able to glance at my Sword Will that I've been working on.'

The Sword Will is just Sora's Will taking in the properties of a sword like sharpness and it's piercing sharp point. Not much special like Intent that greatly enhances an items' capabilities and the strength of techniques. It only grants the Will a sharp and piercing property that can be used to attack alongside the sword or even to mentally attack an opponent.

The sword in Sortiliena's hand dropped to the floor and she fell to her knees with a hand on her head. She lifted up her head pitifully and looked at Sora with shock.

"You'll be fine in a couple of minutes," said Sora. He went easy on her with his Sword Will or else she would have lost her mind instead and gone stupid.

"Thank you for your mercy," she said with a bow of her head.

Sortiliena struggled to get up and was eventually helped up by Sora.

"Say kid, you have talent. I will help you become stronger and more proficient with your sword skills," said Sora as he gave the iron sword back to Sortiliena.

"…"

Sortiliena looked at Sora with shock, not knowing what to say. Her eyes widened and a wonderful smile blossomed on her face.

"Thank you!"

As soon as she could, Sortiliena bowed to Sora in gratitude and expressed her willfulness to be his apprentice.

"Gooo and get some rest. Tomorrow we will start your training," said Sora with a smile on his face.

"Yes!"

Sora turned to the old man and nodded to him before leaving to continue training.

The next day rolled by and Sora officially began instructing Sortiliena.

She already has some minor basics down, but her foundation was terribly made. With some help from Sora, Sortiliena was about to improve rapidly.

Sortiliena rapidly felt the change in her swordsmanship and it surpassed her greatly that she can reach such a level. Her strength had increased by a lot after being taught some stuff in the span of a day.

Was terrifying for her to know that she could reach such strength without any trouble.

The weeks passed and soon Kirito and Eugeo joined the Sword Mastery Academy as well. Eugeo brought the Blue Rose Sword to Alice and gave it back to her.

Since she was an instructor, the school didn't mind that she had a personal sword with her at all times. More so when they know that she's a strong swordsman with the backing of an even stronger swordsman, Sora.

After Kirito and Eugeo joined Swords Mastery Academy, nothing of interest happened for an entire year.

Besides teaching Alice on his off days and teaching Sortiliena every day, Sora did nothing besides train or instruct the other kids.

Someone can't become a legend with only talent, they need to work hard as well and reach the summit to wish to strive for more and reach the stars.

Sora had long since reached the stars and was trying to reach what was beyond the stars. What that may be? No one knows besides him.

Anyways, those three new apprentices of his were named Ronye Arabel, Tiese Schotlienen, and Frénica Szeski.

All the young women were cute and beautiful in their own way. One was timid, another was headstrong, and the other last girl was a shy and cheery person.

Sora taught them well along side Sortiliena.

Training together, all five, Alice, Tiese, Ronye, Frénica, and Sortiliena all got well together. They became good friends that tried to hang out as much together.

And they all had one thing in common, they love and admire one single person, Sora.

On one auspicious day, Sora felt like something was going to happen soon.

"Master!"

Tiese came running to him with a worried and terrified expression on her face. She looked at Sora and felt like crying as she explained to him what had happened.

Two rich nobles had set their eyes on Ronye, the cheery girl. When she was walking around with Tiese, the two noblemen caught sight of both of them and got Ronye to follow them by abusing the Taboo Index.

"You have to stop them master!" pleaded Tiese.

Sora frowned at the action of the nobles. He calmly grabbed his sword and walked away from Tiese without saying a word. When Sora got to the dormitory of the two noblemen, Sora cut down the door and entered.

"Who the hell are you?!" One of the noble kids stood up and yelled at Sora.

Sora didn't bother to glance at him as he stared at a pitiful Ronye with a tearful face and disheveled clothes.

She wasn't r.a.p.ed or anything, she was just forced to sit and watch the noblemen undress and then try to rip her clothes off. Luckily they only managed to remove their shirts before Sora arrived.

Sora walked over to Ronye and hugged her. He lifted her up before walking away with her in his arms. When one of the kids tried to attack him, Sora just flicked his finger that was filled with a dense Sword Will.

Psst!

The young man turned into red mist the instant the finger touched his skin. The other nobleman stopped in his tracks in fear of what had just happened. Too bad for him that Sora isn't merciful to other men.

Psst!

With another flick of his finger, Sora made the other nobleman explode into a bloody mist.

Neither of the noblemen had a chance to yell in fear or pain as they exploded into a bloody mist.

As if nothing had occurred, Sora walked out of the noble dorms with Ronye in his arms. Sora had made her fall asleep in his arms to keep her from seeing the gruesome fate of the noble kids.

He wasn't going to let the girl become more traumatized from such a matter.

A little one on one session with Ronye will fix her up real easy… reeaal~ easy…

When Sora got back to his apprentice dorms, Alice, Sortiliena and Frénica were already there with Tiese waiting for Sora. They were worried about Sora and Ronye since they weren't sure what was happening.

However, once they saw Sora, they made way for him as they noticed Ronye in his arms unconscious.

"What happened?"

The girls asked right away with worry as they watched Sora lay Ronye down.

"Not a thing," said Sora as he gave a small smile. "She will be fine, nothing happened besides a minor trauma."

"…"

The girls revealed faces of pity as they looked at the unconscious girl, Ronye.

Sora revealed a wry smile but could do nothing against their reactions to such a thing.

"I will be away for some time, it looks like someone has come to visit me," said Sora ominously as he stared at the entrance of the door. Once all the girls, with the exception of Ronye, looked at the door, a woman entered with a hard look on her face.

She has bluish-grey eyes and tea colored hair tied up properly. She wore the Sword Mastery Academy instructor uniform that beautifully hugged her slim body.

Although her looks were nothing special, her charm laid in her stern and cool aura.

"Ms. Azurica!"

The girls looked at the woman with shock as she strutted into the room and stood before Sora.

"You…" Azurica paused and sighed. "The integrity knight is here for you. I hope you can save yourself from this, I know you can do it."

Sora chuckled and just walked alongside Azurica as they headed off to where the integrity knight was waiting for him.

When Sora got to where the integrity knight was waiting for him, he got to see a beautiful woman.

She has flowing, silky, wavy, long deep black hair groomed with tender care. Her hair has a tinge of purple thanks to the intricate color and design of her beautiful purple armor more detailed than any other integrity knight.

Her stature is the same as Kirito's or taller, though the line tracing from her back to her waist is more slender and enticing.

She has a pure, beautiful face which resembles that of a holy woman and also has a silky skin with the shade of black tea with plenty of milk added in. Her arc-shaped eyebrows and long eyelashes are black, while her eyes are dark reddish-brown, close to gold. The tinge of roundness of her jawline brings forth a remarkably gentle elegance which is matched by her very mildly red petite lips.

'A beautiful woman,' inwardly exclaimed Sora in joy as he looked at the woman he shall ravage soon.
