One More Time: Rebirth

Chapter 49: Contract Breaker



Tsukiyomi's POV:

As I noticed that we were surrounded I backed up a bit and went closer to Edge. Though this group seems to be a bit strong, the only real threat to Edge was that one man. When I noticed a rather powerful presence, I also noticed something weird. It was a faint feeling that came from the powerful foe. I wasn't sure what it was but though faint it made me feel irked.

As I gazed upon the man from the Eastern Kingdom, floating standing on top of his sword. The moment I saw him I finally understood why I was so irritated. This man has a contract with another Ethereal, and he broke the conditions of his contract. contemporary romance

He was a contract breaker! What was even more surprising was that he wasn't killed by the curse within the contract that should have activated the moment he broke it. Even more surprising was the fact that after he was able to survive the curse, the other Ethereals didn't wake up and destroyed him. It must be because of the sign of the contract being weirdly weak.

Though the sign of the contract was weak, I can still somehow sense it. So either this was a reincarnation of the contract breaker or he somehow was able to lessen the aura a contract breaker emits. Either way, those that cheat on the contract of an Ethereal must die!

The man was saying something but I do not care. The blood that flows through my veins was screaming at me to kill the man before me. There's no need to fight it, I just need to accept it.

"CONTRACT BREAKER!"

Edge's POV:

I don't know what happened to Tsukiyomi but she suddenly attacked the man floating on top of a sword. The moment she did that Cliff-senpai laughed heartily.

"Now that's my kind of answer! That kohai knows what she's doing, let's kill these f*ckers from the Eastern Kingdom!" Cliff-senpai then started hacking at the Eastern Kingdom soldiers using his scythe.

Of course, the Eastern Kingdom soldiers didn't just stare at us, instead, they started to retaliate. Leto and Clarise-senpai supported Cliff-senpai with spells.

On the other hand, Jester-senpai was handling half of the enemies. It was then I saw a sword slash coming my way, I blocked it using my own sword and countered the approaching enemies with a spell. I lifted my staff, [fireball].

The moment my fireball was about to make contact with the enemy soldier. He sliced the fireball in half. I then saw the other Eastern Kingdom soldiers slicing through low to mid-level spells. On the other hand, High-level spells like the one Jester-senpai was using in succession seems to be working.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to use such a tactic since I haven't mastered using High-level spells, and there's also Tsukiyomi battling above using a large amount of my mana. As I block the incoming attacks from the enemy soldiers, I couldn't help but look at Tsukiyomi a bit worried.

This is the first time I have ever seen her lose her cool like that. Also, it would seem like she's going all out, but she and her opponent look to be at the same level. The only way we can win this fight is if we eliminate the other soldiers first, then gang-up on their commander.

I kicked the soldier in front of me and used [Moonlit Dance]. As I tried to pass by the seven soldiers in front of me and use my technique, I noticed that some of them were able to block properly. Not only that their swords seem to be as good as mine, if not better.

I was only able to take out three of them and injured the remaining four. It would seem like the others were also having difficulty fighting the Eastern Kingdom soldiers. Well, except for Jester-senpai, who was destroying them with one big spell after another. Even with that kind of firepower, it would take a while for Jester-senpai to help, the others. This seems like it would be harder than I thought.

I couldn't help it as I felt excited and started smiling. Though the situation was dire, and one wrong move could be the death of all of us. I can't help but feel the thrill of the battle flow through me.

"Hey Eastern Kingdom guys, let me test out all my techniques on you." I then happily charged at them, as I got exhilarated just thinking if the techniques that Tsukiyomi and I created were good in a real battle.

Third Person's POV:

The boy called Edge was showing a vicious smile at the Eastern Kingdom soldiers in front of him. The soldiers with their high pride felt insulted by the young boy who looked no older than twelve provoking them. They also felt ashamed as such a young boy was not only able to handle them but was even at an advantage.

Then there were the three students whose cooperation were superb as they took out one soldier after another.

Then finally there was the monster that was trampling over the rest of the unit, while protected the warbeast children. He was using one High-spell after another, it was like his mana was bottomless.

Knowing that the oldest one of them seem to be only seventeen years old, made the Eastern Kingdom soldiers feel extremely ashamed. If not for their prior orders, they would've wanted to commit s*ic*de to alleviate the shame they were feeling.

While the Eastern Kingdom soldiers and the black-clad students were having their little skirmish down below, a bigger fight was happening above ground. Two figures were dancing in the air, clashing against each other. One was blasting unknown spells, while the other was slicing through those said spells like butter.

The commander of the unit below was surprised to see Tsukiyomi aggressively attacking him. That surprise then turned into a smile as he chuckled while slicing through the barrage of spells.

"How fortunate, I was ordered to come here simply to catch some criminals that attacked our merchants. But look at what I have here, an almighty Ethereal. You would be a good source for strengthening me, and I could finally go pass the Grandmaster stage into the Immortal Stage."

As the commander was happily speaking, Tsukiyomi got near him and used Moon Edge Style, [Falling Light]. Tsukiyomi unleashed a barrage of sword-like thrusts, using her own hand as a blade attacking the commander. Yet despite Tsukiyomi's speed and power, the commander was able to parry all the incoming attacks.

"Contract Breaker! What have you done to my kin!" Tsukiyomi still retaining a bit of her sanity shouted at the commander.

"..." The commander didn't respond and instead used the opening Tuskiyomi made and kicked her in the chest, making her fly backward. "Now Ethereal give me your strength so that I may reach the Immortal stage!"
