I would like to ask if Volume 15 is the end of the series. The cover shows Kirito and Alice after a battle or something(i asume after some sort of war). From what i heard Kawahara has already posted the end script years ago in a japanese forum. So is volume 15 the end? If not is there a lot more to go in the Alicization Arc? Is there a story after the Alicization Arc? Please answer without spoilers. I know the story up to Volume 9(Alicization Beginning) and by the illustrations and names of the other volumes i have a general idea of what's happening.
