Sword Art Online Alicziation: World Of Underworld

Stacia, the Goddess Of Creation

*Monday, July 6, 2026 5:10 PM*

Kikuoka, Dr. Kojiro, Higa, and others were analyzing and setting up the account for Asuna, as she was ready to login to the Underworld

"Are you ready?"

"Yes. Anytime you're ready, please." Asuna said

"Ms. Asuna. You'll be using the superuser account 01 Stacia, the Goddess of Creation, 'kay? Although this account gives you admin rights to run the unlimited landscape alteration command, since there's so much data being transferred between the STL and the Main Visualizer, it can seriously overload your Fluctlight, 'kay? So please try not to alter the landscape recklessly. If you feel a headache starting while using the command, stop doing it right away, 'kay?" Higa said

"Okay."

"Ms. Yuuki. I'm counting on you to care of Kirito and Sonic."

"Of course."

Moments later, she layed down as the STL was now ready to be use on Asuna.

*Dark Territory Shrubland Human Army Supply Corps*

The Northern Lights were shining the night sky as Asuna was looking down. Moments later, Asuna already had a headache.

"So this is the side effect of landscape alternation. Where? Where are you, Kirito, Sonic?"

Asuna slowly landed on the ground as tried looking for Kirito and Sonic.

"Lady Stacia?"

"Are you... a god?" Tiese said

"No. I'm sorry. I'm not a god." Asuna said

"But... But you just performed a miracle amd saved my life! You've saved the guards, the monks and Kirito, as well."

"I... I've come here just to see them... to see both Kirito and Sonic. Please... Where are they? Let me see them! Please take me to Kirito and Sonic!"

"-Right. This way."

"-Right. This way."

"A-Asuna..."

Before Teise and Ronie could take Asuna. She heard foot steps coming from behind her. She turn's and noticed Sonic standing there with his armor on but not wearig his helmet.

"S-Sonic? (Tears rolling down her eyes) I-Is that you?"

Tears rolled down Sonic's as he drop's his helmet and sword and run's toward's Asuna with his arms opened up.

"Asuna!"

"Sonic!"

Sonic jump's on Asuna and give's her the biggest hug while crying. Asuna also give's Sonic a big hug as well.

"(Crying) Asuna... I missed you so much!" Sonic crying

"Don't worry, Sonic. I'm here now for you and Kirito. And that golden armor you are wearing is so beautiful." Asuna said while hugging Sonic

"Thank you..."

The two continued to hug for a longer as Sonic kept crying some more.

"I guess I did miss a lot, didn't I?" Tails said

*Later*

Asuna and Sonic both entered the tent as they both noticed Kirito still sitting down and without saying anything.

"Kirito."

Kirito's hand twitches and look's up. Tears rolled down Kirito's face. Asuna and Sonic notced and both hugged Kirito.

"Kirito, it's all right. That's enough." Asuna crying

"Please, Kirito..." Sonic said

"Thank you. You've beem protecting both Kirito and Sonic, haven't you?"

"Um... if you're not Lady Stacia, then who are you?" Ronie said

"My name is Asuna. I'm a human being, just like you. Just like Kirito and Sonic, I've come from the outside world. In order to fufill the same goal."

"-The same world as Kirito and Sonic?"

"-The same world as Kirito and Sonic? D-Do you mean the Divine Realm? The Celestial Realm where the three goddesses of creation, the gods of the elements, and the angels live?" Ronie said

"Not that. Although it is a world that exists outside of this one. I'm sorry. I can't describe it in one word. I'd like to explain it to the people in command here, so could you take me to them?" Asuna said

"Y-Yes. Understood. Please come this way."

Ronie and Tiese both took Asuna with them back outside the tent.

"It's all right. Everything's all right now, Kirito and Sonic. Just leave the rest to me." Asuna said

"I'll be you're guardian. I'm not letting of the enemies touch you once." Sonic said

"Thank you, Sonic."

*Outside*

Asuna and Sonic exit the tent but a flower beam fires at them. Asuna and Sonic grabbed their swords and blocked the attack. Sonic noticed it was Alice that fired at both him and Asuna.

"Alice!"

The three slammed swords at each other mutiple times and collided moments later.

"Alice! What are you doing?" Sonic said

"L-Lady Knight! Please stop!"

"She's not the enemy! Lady Alice-"

"Alice?"

"Who are you? Why did you go near Kirito and Sonic? And Sonic, are you betraying me?" Alice said

"Ummm..."

"Why, you ask? Because belong Kirito and Sonic to me!"

"What are you talking about, you savage?" Alice said

"Sonic, step back. I'll handle this." Asuna said

"Are you sure?"

"Trust me."

"(Sigh) Alright."

Sonic jump's away as Asuna and Alice continued to slammed swords at each other.

"Now this is truly a magnificent sight to behold. Two beautiful flowers bursting into bloom. Man, it's glorius."

Bercouli stop's the duel between Alice and Asuna.

"Why would you interrupt me? Uncle, she must be an enemy spy." Alice said

"I don't think so. Because just as I was about to meet my untimely demise in battle, it was this young lady who saved my life. I saw it. And armor kid isn't a traitor for you're information."

*Flashback*

Bercouli was in the forest with his sword out.

"So they're here."

Moments later, the sky glowed a the northern lights appeared and created a giant hole between the enemy and Bercouli.

"A rainbow of light came down feom the heavens, and split open 100 mel wide. Even those pugilists were flustered because they couldn't make the jump. That we were this close to being wiped out in one fell swoop and this young lady saved us is an undeniable fact."

*End Of Flashback*

"Asuna, are you alright?!" Sonic running toward's Asuna

Asuna look's at Sonic and nod's.

"Then are you saying that this person isn't an enemy spy, nor an immoral imposter dressed like a divine entity depicted in holy art, but rather the real goddess, Stacia?" Alice said

"I don't think that. If this young lady were an actual god, then she'd be scarier than the pontifex, wouldn't she? She'd hurl someone rude enough to attack her at first sight inti the depths of the earth."

Alice take's a deep breath and put's her sword away.

"Yes. As you say, I'm not a god. I'm a human, like all of you. But I do have some knowledge of the situation you're in right now." Asuna said

"The rest if your story should be heard by the other knights and guards, as well. Let's talk about this over tea."

"Very well."

"Right, now that that's settled. You young ladies over there! Could you get us some hot tea, and some liquor for me? You should listen in, too."

"-Yes, sir!"

"-Yes, sir!"

Bercouli walk's away. Leaving Alice, Sonic, Asuna, Ronie, and Tiese behind. Asuna and Sonic both walked back inside the tent.

"I want to make one thing clear. From now on, you are not to enter that carriage without my permission. As it is my duty ensue Kirito's safety." Alice said

"(Sigh) Here we go again." Sonic walking backwards

"You, too! Stop referring to my Kirito in such a familiar way!" Asuna said

"Did you say something?"

"No, nothing."

Alice and Asuna stopped looking at each other walked away. Leaving Sonic, Tiese, and Ronie behind. Sonic sigh's and follow's them two from behind.

"It looks like things are going to get intense, huh? Come on, we need to boil some water right away! The liquor jug's in that carriage over there, right? Let's go, Ronie!" Tiese running into one of the carriages

"He's my senpai..."

*Later*

The Soldiers, Integrity Knights, Sonic, and Asuna were all gathered around a camp fire.

"It's nice to meet you all. My name is Asuna. I've come from the outside world. By "outside" I don!t mean that this world that you all live in, the Underworld, is psychically connected to the real world I came from. Along with Sonic here. They're totally separate worlds. And now, in a specific location in the real world, two forces are fighting forces for control of the Underworld. I was sent from Rath, one of those forces."

"Then did you come to this world to rule over it?"

"The opposite, actually. My objective is to protect the Underworld. And the objective of the force opposing us is to extract a single person from the Underworld, and then destroy this world completely."

"Destroy this world?"

"That's ridiculous."

"In the first place, what's this "outside world"?"

"It's the same thing. Outside the Human Empire lies the Dark Territory, where a colossal force of tens of thousands has been more than eager to invade us. That's a fact that on one, including me, has ever given any serious thought to. So what if there's one more world on the outside now? It's not a big deal. So this force that's intent on destroying this world who's the single person they want to seize?" Bercouli said

Asuna look's at Alice.

"M-Me?"

"I see. So that's what this "Priestess of Light" is about, huh?"

"There isn't much time left. The only way to prevent the Underworld's annihilation is to take Alice ro the real world with me. Once they know that Alice is no longer here, the enemy should stop interfering with this world." Asuna said

"Y-You must be joking! Run away! Me? Abandon this world and everyon who lives here, to go to this real world? That will never happen! I am an Integrity Knight! Protecting the Human Empire is my gravest and only duty!" Alice refusing

"Then that's all the more reason. If the enemy, not the land of darkness, but the invaders from the real world capture you, then everyone who lives in this world, the land, the skies, everything will be erased! The enemy could attack this place at any moment!" Asuna said

"Whoa, About that, your information's outdated, little Asuna. It seems like these guys you call the enemy are already here. Now it all makes sense. The Priestess of Light and the Dark God Vecta, who's after her. This god, Vecta, who's leading the enemy force right now, must no doubt be a human from the real world like you." Bercouli said

"Dark God..."

"My goodness. Then the superuser accounts from the Dark Territory must not have been locked."

"So all of this has been happening when I was gone? How much did I miss in the real world?" Sonic thought

"Um, m-may I ask something? What exactly is the Priestess of Light, anyway? And why do these invaders from the real world want Lady Alice so badly?" Renly said

"Because she broke the Seal of the Right Eye." Sheyta said

"Y-You knew about that, Lady Sheyta? But how?"

"Whenever I think about it, my right eye hurts. The hardest thing in the world, the indestructible Central Cathedral. If I could just slash the whole thing, what fun that would be." Sheyta said

"Well, I bet there are others here who've experienced the same thing. I referring to how the slightest doubt about the pontifex's authority or the Axiom Church's system triggers a flashing red light in your right eyeball, along with a searing pain. Normally, the pain is so severe that you'd lose that thought, but should those blasphemous thoughts continue, the pain intensifies drastically, and the right side of your vision turns red. Until finally..."

"Your entire eye explodes completely."

"Then, Lady Alice..."

"I fought Prime Senator Chudelkin, as well as the pontifex, Administrator. In order to muster the resolve to do so, I temporarily lost my right eye. Come to think of it... when I fought Administrator, there was something anout my right eye... I believe it was Code 8.. 7... That's right! Code 871! That's what the pontifex called the Seal of the Right Eye. She said it was Code 871 imposed by "that person." At the time, I didn't know what she meant. But could this, too, be a word from the real world, rather than an ancient sacred term?" Alice said

"Code... 87... 1? That seal was put in place on the other side... by someone from Rath? But no, it would only get in the way of their objective." Alice said

"Rath's goal is to create AI with true intelligence. Mr Kikuoka and Mr. Higa created the Underworld for that purpose, and they've continued the simulation for centuries. Since Mr. Kikuoka deliberately created an environment for the AIs to violate the Taboo Index, having a cose to force them into obedience would defeat the purpose of the experiement. No way! Is the Seal of the Right Eye a means of sabotage. Is is the enemy that's attacking us now? This is bad! There's a mole among the Rath Staff! On this side of the bulkhead! I have to let Mr. Kikuoka on the outside know right away. But how am I going to do that if there are no system consoles nearby? Kirito!"

"-Asuna. Please..."

"Is something wrong?"

"No. I'm fine. As Alice said, Code 871, the Seal of the Right Eye, was set up by someone from the real world. Someone on the enemy side." Asuna said

"Isn't there any way to disable that code, aside from blowing up the right eye?"

"I don't think it's somethimg that can be disabled from inside the Underworld."

"In other words, this enemy you're talking about wants to get their hands on someone who brok ethe Seal of the Right Eye on their own. Let me ask you something. Do you real-world folks have the same seal?" Bercouli said

"No. I have no such seal. Most likely, whether or not we're absolutely forced to obey laws and commands is the one thing that sets apart the real-worlders and the Underworlders. They enemy feared the one who would break that seal in the Underworld. That the Priestess of Light, as they call her, would appear, and then fall into the hands of others. That's because the Priestess of Light can very well become extremely valuable in the real world." Asuna said

"That's what I can't understand. If the only difference between us and you real-worlders is whether or not we have the Seal of the Right Eye, doesn't that make the Priestess of Light, in other words, little Alice, an existence equal to a real-worlder? Then why are they obsessed with the Priestess of Light? Whether it's the enemy or your people, what exactly do they want little Alice ro do once she's been taken to the outside world?" Bercouli said

"Well... I'm sorry. I can't tell you now. Because what I want for Ms. Alice to see the real world with her own eyes, and then decide for herself. It's not a divine nation in any way, nor is it a utopia. Far from it. Compared to this world, it's way uglier and dirtier. But that's not all there is. There are so many people there who want to protect this world and be friends with you all. That's right, just like Kirito and Sonic." Asuna said

"Very well. I won't ask you anything else for now. However, we should first defeat the enemy before us, and establish peace with the Daark Territory. The outside world can wait till afterwards." Alice said

"Right. Now that I know that the Dark God Vecta is from the real world, it could be dangerous for you and me to leave this unit by ourselves. I'm going to join you in this battle. Please let me take care of Vecta." Asuna said

"I'll also help you, Asuna! On fighting Dark God Vecta together!"

"Sure, that would be a huge help, but can you do the ground-splitting thing without limit?"

"Unfortunately, I can probably only perform large-scale land alterations once or twice more." Asuna said

"Well... that's a bummer." Sonic said

"How can we rely on an outsider's help to protect our own Human Empire? It's our turn now to show what we can do." Alice said

"Right... that's right! Asuna's not a god. Didn't she just say that she's a human like us? So we should be able to fight just as well as her!" Renly said

"I, too, would like to fight that pugilist again." Sheyta said

"The knights are absolutely right! Let's do this ourselves!" Golorossa said

The people started to cheer on how they will never back down from a fight.

"I'll protect this world that Kirito and Sonic loved and lived in. From those mysterious attackers... and from Rath as well."

Sonic and Asuna looked at each other and fist bumped at each other.

"Together as one. We will win this fight. And go back to out own world." Sonic said

"Yes, together as one." Asuna said

*Later*

Asuna had her sleeping clothes on and was walking thre the tents.

"I figured you'd come."

Asuna noticed Alice standing in front of a tent with her night clothes on.

"Let's make a deal. I'll let you see Kirito and Sonic. And I'll tell everything I know. In return, you need to tell me everything you know about Kirito and Sonic as well." Alice said

"That's fine! But it's a really long story. It might take more than one night." Asuna said

"How long have you spent with Kirito and Sonic?"

"Let's see. I fought as their partners for two years. I soon became really the best of friends with Sonic who I'm still best friend's with to this day. And then Kirito and I dated for a year and a half. During which, we lived together for two weeks." Asuna said

"I fought on their side for a full night. After that, I cared for them day and night for six months while living under the same roof!" Alice said

"Is that so?"

"Excuse me?"

Ronie appear's outta nowhere.

"Um, I-I cleaned Kirito's room for about two months, and I also learned sword skills from him, not to memtion that he treated me to honey pies from the Prancing Deer Cafe more than once! Compared to you two, I was with him and Sonic for a much shorter time, but, um, I'd like to trade information, too." Ronie said

Asuna and Alice looked at each other and shruged.

"All right. You're one of us, then, Ms. Ronie!" Asuna said

"This information... would you allow me to take part as well?" Norlangarth appearing as well

"I saw you in that meeting just now." Asuna said

"I am Norlangarth Imperial Knight Sortiliena Serlut. I was going to wait until the battle was over, but as I, too, have a close relationship with Kirito and Sonic, I couldn't stop myself from coming here."

"And what kind of relationship would that be, Chief Guard Serlut?"

"If you like, please call me Liena, Lady Knight. At the Norlangarth Imperial Swordcraft Academy, Kirito and Sonic waited on me as my primary trainee page for a full year. In addition, I believe I was able to pass on some of my sword skills to them."

"In that case, you must also have plenty of information yourself! Please join us." Asuna said

*Inside The Tent*

Kirito was sleeping on the bed by himself with the swords next to him. Sonic was watching him sleep peacefully on a chair whole cleaning up his duel Excalibur swords. Asuna noticed the two swords Kirito and Sonic had with the,

"What's wrong?"

"Dual-wielding Kirito." That's what people called both him and Sonic on the other side." Asuna said

"Really! Then why don't we start here?" Alice sitting down

To Be Continue...

"Next Time: Heartless Circle." Alice and Sonic as narrators
