Traveler Of The Multiverse - Chapter 385
***
Next day rolled over and Sora was called by Seijiro. To come over quickly to Rath since Kirito has been fatally wounded in a car crash and was barely hanging in by thread. They sent Kirito over to the Underworld where they accelerated the time until 10 years later.
Sora frowned and had Yui go to Rinko since he wasn’t sure how long he would be gone. He told Chitoge his circ.u.mstances before leaving her at the house and jogging to Rath.
After arriving at Rath, Sora was quickly brought into the building and guided to a SoulDive machine.
“We need you to go in there and reassure Kirito that everything will be alright. We won’t be able to answer both of you for a while since we have to move this equipment over to another building since our rivals had discovered our location,” said Seijiro as he gestured to Sora to enter the SoulDive machine.
“Alright.”
Sora entered the machine and was sent to the Underworld in an instant.
He wasn’t too worried snot anything bad happening. The fortune of everyone around him was pretty high and signified that nothing too bad will happen in the next few days.
He also wasn’t sure of the time dilation that Seijiro had placed for Kirito, but he estimated it to be around one year every 10 days.
Once Sora was sent into the game, he didn’t appear where he was the last time. He also didn’t appear as a little kid anymore.
Looking around, Sora found that he was still next to the village, just at a very distant location.
“Hmm…”
Sora walked over to the village, prepared to enter like always until he noticed the uneasy stares from the villagers. He knew some of them because of his days as a little kid there, none seemed to recognize him however.
Sora frowned and didn’t enter the village, instead he walked over to the Giant Tree and looked for Eugeo.
By the time Sora got there, he found Eugeo and Kirito taking turns chopping down the giant tree.
“Master?”
Kirito blurted out unconsciously as he looked at Sora. Two long years of serving under Sora as a disciple, Kirito won’t ever stop calling Sora Master even if he tried.
Eugeo turned to look at Kirito with shock before looking over at Sora.
“You regained your memories Kirito?!” Eugeo stopped cutting at the tree, quickly running next to Kirito and being happy for him.
Kirito froze at Eugeo’s words and quickly turned around nervously, “Ah, no! I only remembered my Master. The man who taught me everything about the sword.”
“Such a shame,” said Eugeo, lamenting the fact that Kirito couldn’t remember anything besides his own name and who his master is.
When Kirito appeared in this world, he didn’t know where he was. He was just taking a stroll in the streets when all of a sudden a bright light assaulted his eyes and he appeared in a forest.
Not sure if he was in a game or not, Kirito walked around for a while until he ran into a blonde boy, Eugeo.
Doing some light tests, Kirito believed he wasn’t in a game, or either the game was so advanced and realistic that that’s what he thought.
After he was brought to a village by Eugeo, Kirito had to prove he was a Swordsman and that’s when he knew he was in a game, or rather, the Underworld.
A sword skill activated!
After he proved he was a swordsman, Kirito had been at the village for almost an entire week already. He helped around the village, mainly helping out Eugeo with chopping down the Giant Tree with the Blue Rose Sword whose owner was currently not in the village.
“Nice to meet you! I’m Eugeo!”
Sora looked at Eugeo quietly for a split second before smiling, “Nice to meet you, I’m Heaven.”
“Let’s go talk over there master!” Kirito quickly got Eugeo to continue cutting the tree before walking away with Sora.
“Master, why haven’t they taken us out of the game yet?” Kirito looked at Sora with a look of curiosity, wondering what the reason could possibly be.
Sora gazed at Kirito for a bit before shaking his head. Seeing the twitching eyes, the slight exhaustion, the uneasy hand movements, and his awkward speech patterns, Sora knew that Kirito was going through a difficult time.
Stress, mental exhaustion, minor depression, the boy had acc.u.mulated a lot ever since he got trapped in SAO. Although it wasn’t too serious thanks to Sora’s minor planted suggestions in Kirito to keep healthy.
“Sigh ~, then we’re stuck in here until when?”
“I’m not too sure, but we must be calm in times like these,” said Sora, calmly walking over to the tree and sitting down with his legs crossed.
“Right,” said Kirito, returning to Eugeo with a bright smile. Sora noticed the dampening aura surrounding Kirito disappear a bit.
“… the human mind is very frail,” sighed Sora as he began meditating.
He meditated for almost the entire day until Kirito and Eugeo had to leave. It was only then that Sora stood up and left as well, not following behind Eugeo and Kirito.
Instead, Sora headed off to a special place that should only be of importance to him.
Appearing before a whitish tree, gazed upon it a bit weirdly. Before, the tree used to be brown, but now it is white. Sora could feel a faint trace of the White Dragon’s Will on it.
Sora was a bit surprised and congratulated the world on its first White Dragon Tree. A tree that gives birth to a Dragon Fruit, a fruit that grants a person Dragon Power.
Dragon Power is a type of passive strengthening power that grants strength upon its consumer. A passive increase in strength of ten times.
Though it wasn’t much use to Sora since this thing would only be making his soul stronger, it was strange that he had better fruits and pills that cancel out the effects of this Dragon Fruit.
‘That’s right!’
Sora realized at that moment that he can just eat tons of pills that increase the strength, purity, quality, and quantity of his soul power through pills and fruits. There’s a small possibility of regaining memories and although not too big of a possibility, it’s still better than none.
Sora can’t do any of that at the moment since he has no soul cultivation. The only one he could do is the mind, body, and Gate strengthening.
Sora was sure that he had Gate strengthening fruits that can be eaten and turned into pills for stronger and better added effects.
It was all a matter of time. As long as he reaches the pinnacle, he will be able to soar in strength in an instant.
“It won’t be too long,” mumbled Sora as he started moving some dirt around. In a breath of time, Sora found his White Dragon Sword. Pulling it out of the dirt, Sora felt that it was lighter than before.
Feeling the change in weight, Sora checked his information.
Object Control Authority: 127
Durability: 1,587 / 1,587
…
Since it was lighter thanks to using his Will, Sora could now carry the sword on his waist with no problem. The exquisite sword was amazing and it brought a sense of godly charm to Sora as he casually walked with a hand on the hilt.
Sora didn’t head to the village nonetheless, he headed straight to the ice cave from before. Circ.u.mstances were different compared to last time.
He estimated that the amount of time for Seijiro to take them out will be around two years for them. So he had a lot of time to waste in the meantime.
Either he can create Chaos, or he can enforce just, or he can remain neutral and kill those who try to oppose and oppress him.
For the time being, Sora will be heading to the ice cave to make it into a house and give the White Dragon a proper burial.
After the burial, he will train until he reaches 150 in the Object Control Authority. He will also try to make the White Dragon into a mount, if his any or gods Arrays and Formations work that is. He could also use spells with his Mind Cultivation, but he didn’t know any strong and better spells than those from DxD.
Which really showed how low Sora was at with the spells. He hardly had any besides the ones he made using the DxD magic as a reference. Sora also tried replicating Immortal Spells like the ones from a select few Chinese movies where he had seen them, but they all ended with no results whatsoever.
Getting to the ice cave, Sora headed inside with minor caution. When he entered into the dark, Sora couldn’t see a thing until his White Dragon Sword glowed on its own and lit up the space of 2 meters around him.
It wasn’t long until Sora reached the ice cave and noticed the pile of dragon bones still there. The gold and various weapons were also still there, but Sora had no need for them, so he was going to sacrifice them to bring back the White Dragon. He’ll keep a tiny bit of gold just to be on the safe side in the future.
In almost an instant, Sora had cleaned out the ice cave and made it into a nice little room for himself.
After making the room and making some furniture with the cut ice blocks, Sora walked over to the pile of bones, gold, and weapons.
Separating the gold and weapons, Sora had the bones remain in the middle. The gold was spread out in a circle and the weapons in another outer circle stabbed into the ground.
Once the gold and weapons were placed, Sora used the White Dragon Sword to inscribe into the ground and draw an array. If the array doesn’t work, Sora will move onto the Formations.
Luckily Sora didn’t have to since the array was working just fine.
The gold melted because of the array and the swords began vibrating. In just seconds, meat began to grow on the bones and bring life back onto the dragon bones. It wasn’t long until the meat grew back and the scales were next.
Gruguruu…
Waking up from it’s ‘eternal slumber’, the White Dragon opened it’s eyes before looking at Sora with loyal eyes. With the array making the White Dragon his tamed beast the instant it had been revived.
Sora smiled and watched as the gold flowed into the body of the dragon and acted as it’s blood. The weapons all turned to liquid before turning into the teeth and claws of the White Dragon.
Nodding with appreciation at the strength of the White Dragon, Sora was glad to have it as a tamed beast. It would make travel a lot easier in the world as well as getting some extra help in fights.Although he could easily deal with most fights, it would be a nice way to show off his arrogance and pride with a dragon fighting for him.
After the dragon had flowing blood, the weapons were next. They were vibrating, waiting to turn to liquid and merge with the claws and teeth, making the dragon more deadly than before.
