volume 19 and 20 are side stories about what happened in the 200 years kirito and asuna were in the underworld for. Then 21 is the start of the new main arc,unital ring. Then 22 it some more side stories but they kinda pointless. Then 23+ carries on with unital ring

Volume 19 is the next volume after War of Underworld, but it still takes place in Underworld

Volume 21 is the first non-underworld content.

Alicization arc ends in volume 18. Vol 19,20 covers a side story i e., MOON CRADLE ARC. It tells the story of how Kirito and Asuna are living in the underworld after a few years had passed, it have some action but not so important, u can skip to volume 21.

Vol 21,23-current covers the Unital Ring arc
Vol 22 is a side story( but it's worth since it also tells how Yuki and her guild(from MR arc) was formed, my personal fav)
Please watch Sword Art Online Progressive, it's the peak of SAO.

U should read the Alicization arc LNs if possible, because the anime cut out some things. And I would prefer to start from vol 10(Alicization beginning) so that u build some interest in reading SAO LNs, u will realise how the LN is different soon enough and it's worth trust me.

Or u can just buy Unital Ring if u want to know the rest of the story, since S4 will take a while to come out.
