One More Time: Rebirth
Chapter 43: I want to battle them
A country with different sword techniques and a different ranking system. I couldn't help but feel excited. I never understood this feeling of wanting to fight such strong opponents. But I think that even before when I was still in my previous world I had this feeling as well. Maybe the only reason I never truly noticed it was because of my feelings for revenge. I do believe that I definitely had this burning sensation of wanting to do battle in my previous world.
"Why are you guys smiling and laughing?" Setsuna asked looking both annoyed and confused.
"Kukuku, why shouldn't I laugh? You said something funny, so I laughed." I saw Setsuna clenching his fist unable to say anything to Tsukiyomi, so he directed his irritation towards me.
"And you, why are you smiling?!"
"I can't help it, when I learned that there are many powerful people out there, it felt like my journey has even more meaning. I want to see them, I want to witness their techniques, and above all, I want to battle them!"
"..." Setsuna was looking at me with a weird expression.
"Can you tell me more about the Eastern Kingdom?" I asked excitedly.
"How about we talk inside, it's getting pretty cold," Setsuna replied as he headed back into the dormitory.

Once we were inside, we headed to my room since it was the biggest one in the dormitory. While we were walking in the hallways, I saw Louise peeking at me again as she passed by. I also noticed her presence alongside Setsuna when we were doing the mock battle. I wonder what she wants? Well, she isn't bothering me and after all, she is just a child, so she just might be a bit curious about me.

We arrived at my room and I saw Setsuna looking around in surprise. "Your room is three times bigger than mine."
"kukuku, that's because Edge and I are special, so we get special treatment." I once again saw Setsuna look at Tsukiyomi with eyes full of irritation. Well, before this escalates better get it back to the conversation I want to hear.
"So what's the Eastern Kingdom like?" Hearing my question Setsuna shifted his attention back to me.
"The Eastern Kingdom the Hasaki Kingdom is different from this Northern Kingdom of Regon. In Hasaki we do not use mana for spells, in fact using spells is a dishonorable thing. Those of the Eastern Kingdom believe that the way of the sword is the only way, as it can bring one into a higher realm."
"I see... How exciting, so there's the Eastern Kingdom and the Northern Kingdom, and I remember my dad telling me that there are three human kingdoms. So that must mean there's one more Kingdom left. I wonder what they're like?" Setsuna responded to my question by shaking his head.
"Sorry the only thing I know is that there is a Western Kingdom, but aside from that I don't even know what it's called."
I then looked at Tsukiyomi and she simply shrugged her shoulders. "Alright then, let's get back to the topic at hand. Why did the Eastern Kingdom banish you, or did you flee? Also, why are the people of the Heavenly Sword Faction trying to kill you?
"... It's because my parents have died and my clan is being pressured by the other clans within the Heavenly Sword Faction. So for my safety, my uncle sent me here to the Northern Kingdom."
"Is it okay to tell us that?" Setsuna shrugged his shoulders in response to my question.
"It doesn't really matter if you know or not, it's not like you can do anything."
After saying that we then talked about the sword style of the Heavenly Sword Faction. After Setsuna demonstrated some techniques, I also demonstrated techniques of the Moon Edge Style. We compared the two and concluded that though the two styles are somehow similar, they were completely different sword styles.
My Moon Edge Style was a balanced sword style that looked like a higher version of the void style with the added elements from the other styles. Were we move and use a technique depending on the situation. The sword style of the Heavenly Sword Faction, on the other hand, focuses more on speed like the wind style. We continued to talk about sword techniques throughout the night.
I think I just made a new friend.
