Re;Kingdom, Starting a Life with Amnesia from Zero
Arc 1 - "To You" - Introduction Arc
Chapter 7 - "Moon Watches"
Arc Finale
Elsa: "Don't be so angry at me Jens... You are gonna ruin your pretty face. The thing is, I have almost everything I wanted and what my Prince desires. However, Mama was quite sad that one of the strongest sisters being injured so badly. So, she ordered me to kill everyone related to her death."
Elsa grabbed her two kukri knives and walked down the stairs casually and calm.
Jens: "Mama? Prince? I don't know who they are but I'll kill you! You are the reason everything is going the wrong way!"
Elsa: "Is that so? That means I've done my job pretty good."
Jens: "You––!"
Out of nowhere, a yawn was heard. Jens and Lethias turned around and saw Felt that had woken up.
Felt: "Goodmorning, I guess––"
Elsa: "Oh hey Felt! Our deal wasn't done, remember?"
Felt: "Fuck! You're still here?!"
Elsa: "Don't give me such an angry look! Otherwise, you'll end just like Nathan."
Felt: "What?! What did you do to him?"
Elsa: "Nothing yet. He is tied up upstairs."
Felt: "I'll fucking kill––"
Felt started to become angry, which was obvious as her eyes narrowed slightly and her Aura became way more visible. A beautiful gold colored Aura was leaving her body.
Elsa: "Gold Aura... Prince was right, again."
Jens: "Felt! Stay calm! Go get help, we'll deal with Elsa."
Felt: "Are you out of your mind? There is no way I'm gonna leave everyone here behind!"
Felt screamed those words until she started noticing how injured she was and the fact that Elsa would kill her with ease.
Jens: "Listen to me, please. Go get some help!"
Felt ran towards the door, but Elsa reacted to that action and threw seven kukri knives. The kukri knives were sharp and had a color pattern of purple and black. The same as Elsa's clothes and right then--
Lethias: "Ur Dona!"
Lethias lifted up a wall made of soil and stone. He created a wall with his magic and saved Felt.
Lethias: "I won't allow you to hurt Jens' friends!"
Jens: "Le––"
Elsa: "You've actually succeeded and allowed someone to leave. I'm not going lie, you're all stronger than I expected. I'm actually quite annoyed right now."
Jens: "Save your breath. Lethias can you help me? Flux Magic or something like that?"
Lethias: "Flux Dona!"
Lethias released a shining bright yellow aura into Jens' weapon.
Jens: "Let's kill this bitch!"
Elsa: "Let's slaughter them like animals!"
Elsa ran towards Jens and tried to strike a solid hit. However, Jens blocked her attack the last second.
Lethias: "Al Dona!"
Lethias lifted up a boulder from underneath the floor and broke the wooden floor partly. He levitated the boulder and fired the boulder towards Elsa. Elsa however, successfully dodged the boulder.
Elsa: "The strongest Earth Magic, yet you can't even cast it good enough?"
Lethias: "Dona! Dona! Dona!"
Lethias created multiple stone bricks levitating next to him and started shooting them.
Lethias: "Jens go get the others upstairs!"
Jens ran towards the stairs, however––
Elsa: "Not so fast!"
Elsa dodged the bricks and ran towards Jens sliced his back.
Jens: "AAWGHH.."
Right then, just like in the broken, Jens released a black smoke and Elsa paralyzed. She became unable to move and gave off an expression of confusion.
Elsa : "Shamak?!"
Jens crawled up the stairs and saw everyone sitting calmly near the window.
Jens: "Emilia! Krista! Everyone, help!"
Emilia and the others turned around and actually realized that Elsa was downstairs.
Emilia: "JENS!"
Emilia ran towards Jens and started casting healing magic immediately. She noticed how much blood he was actually missing started casting multiple spells.
Sapphire "FUCK! LETHIAS!"
Sapphire, Krista, Nathan, and Angel ran to the bar and saw Lethias fighting Elsa. Lethias was heavily injured and had a serious cut on his forehead where a ton of blood was leaving his body. His clothes were destroyed and covered in blood.
Elsa, on the other hand, looked calm and was untouched. Not even a scratch on her clothes that were left by Lethias.
Sapphire: "YOU FUCKING BITCH!"
Sapphire grabbed his snowboard and changed the floor into ice. He started riding the ice and was moving too quick for an eye to catch.
Elsa: "How fun! Such a lovely weapon. As you might know, I'm from Gusteko, so Ice wouldn't––"
Elsa looked at the window and threw one of the knives with hyper abnormal speed towards the window near the door, and she successfully landed a hit on Sapphire. He was stabbed in his right arm and he was stuck.
Sapphire: "Agh!"
Nathan: "Oh my... how could she catch that!"
Right when Nathan said that, the floor of ice changed into the wooden floor. Sapphire's board was broken and he was bleeding an absurd amount.
Elsa: "Your friend with the big mouth finally stopped talking, how ironic."
Nathan: "Ugh! El Fura!"
Nathan unleashed an extreme blast of magical wind and fired her against a wall.
Elsa: "How great, no. Even greater. That gave me an adrenaline kick."
Nathan: "FURA! FURA!"
Nathan started firing wind slashes with a super high speed that could cut through wood, stone, and flesh with ease. Right after, Kanade started doing so too.
Kanade: "Fura!"
Elsa: "Ah.."
Elsa started jumping around. From the ceiling to a corner, to the stairs to the door and actually dodged them all.
Nathan: "This is impossible––"
Elsa waited for her opportunity to attack. Lethias was covered in blood leaning on the bar table. Sapphire was still stuck by the knife through his arm in the wall.
Eventually, Kanade and Nathan were both exhausted and stopped casting Fura for a second and then--
Elsa : "Now!"
Elsa jumped towards Jens, however, he successfully pushed her away with his sword.
Elsa : "That power. Do you actually believe that you will win? I will be the one that that will touch the sun tonight. Triumph will be mine!"
Nathan : "Shut up!"
Nathan grabbed a sword which was hanging on the wall and ran towards Elsa. He tried a couple times to attack her. However, she easily dodged them and went for her own strike.
Elsa : "You're dead!"
However, out of nowhere. Time and space stopped cooperating. Elsa was frozen and so was the environment. Nobody could move, well maybe not nobody. Nathan started to laugh and walked a couple meters to the right. In fact, this was Nathan's, Trump Card. He kept it a secret as it would make things way more difficult. After he moved his location, time started flowing again and Elsa missed.
Elsa : "Ah!? Teleportation?! No!? What may this beautiful attack be?"
Jens : "What the..?!"
In Jens' eyes, Nathan just teleported a couple meters away from Elsa and dodged the attack. It happened so fast.
Nathan : "Well Elsa, this is my Divine Protection of Motion. It allows me to stop time in fatal moments and reanalyze my surroundings and change my initial location. But excuse me, there is a bitch I've to kill. So no more talking!"
Nathan ran towards Elsa and started dueling. Then, Emilia started healing Angel and so did Krista.
Emilia : "Jens! Help Nathan! We got your back! Flux Huma!"
Emilia fired again, a beam of shining blue light into Jens' blade. Jens ran towards Elsa's back and actually hit her arm, freezing a part of her right leg and a part of her body. Elsa immediately jumped away and took a breath.
Elsa : "For once, I'm actually getting annoyed. Can't we finish this?"
Jens : "It will be my pleasure!"
Emilia started firing crystals of mana purified ice towards Elsa while she kept jumping around.
In the meantime... somewhere else, Felt was running in the streets of the slums, looking for help to save her only friend Nathan.
Felt : "Someone?! Please! Help me! I need help! SOMEONE PLEASE!"
Felt was crying so hard that everyone in the neighborhood would hear it, but she forgot the fact that nobody in the slums would actually give a shit about her.
Then suddenly---
Felt : "Ough!"
Felt bumped into a man. It was the man with flaming red hair and starry sky blue eyes. He was wearing white clothes and had a giant sword on his back.
??? : "Ahh... you called for help? I'm here for you."
Felt : "Please help me, Knight! My friends are being attacked by the Blood Hunter Elsa Granhiert!"
??? : "My my... she is already in the capital... Let's go! Point me the way."
The man was a great man. His way of speaking calmed Felt down and he also had a pretty muscular build which was able to be seen. He also had a charming face which Felt liked despite being terrified by the results she would see when she and the guy would return to the cafe.
They were running towards the west, Felt was leading and the man was running behind her.
Reinhard : "My name is Reinhard van Astrea. I'm the current Sword Saint."
Felt : "Doesn't say much to me. Please hurry!"
Reinhard : "I'm running. Why did she attack your friends?"
Felt : "She is after Emilia's Insignia."
Reinhard : "Oh-- That's a serious crime.
This man had an extraordinary amount of mana in his body. Felt could feel the Aura and Mana inside this man. It was truly phenomenal. She could say safely that this man's Aura was something that nobody has around here.
They finally arrived at the cafe and opened the door.
The first thing that Felt saw was an injured Nathan, Lethias and Sapphire. Jens and Emilia were fighting Elsa, Angel was firing Fura from afar and Krista was trying to heal everyone.
Reinhard : "Stop right there Elsa."
The action stopped immediately. The silence was incredible, it was something that you would hear at a funeral. Everyone backed off and ran towards the stairs, including Sapphire who had an fatal injury in his arm and Nathan who was out of his body Aura, at the brink of death. Krista immediately started healing him and Sapphire along with Emilia.
Reinhard : "I guess your Crazed Prince has already sent you here. Am I right?"
Elsa : "Oh my god. You're actually Reinhard van Astrea. The Sword Saint, the Knight of Heaven, the Knight Implacable, the Sword of God, the Dragon Sword Reid Knight. This is truly amazing! May I ask what such a person like you is doing here?"
Reinhard : "It's nice that my name is known in Gusteko, yet don't be deceived. I came here to help these people. The young lady with gold hair searched for help and I responded, that's all. I see that my associate Kanade Tachibana is also involved with this, so I can't leave you alone Blood Hunter. The fact that you stole a Dragon Insignia is a true crime."
Elsa : "Oh my! Even my Prince would call this truly phenomenal! The Sword Saint! You're actually here. I can't wait to feel the sharpness of your Dragon Sword Reid."
Jens : "Who is––?"
Angel : "He is the Sword Saint. He is the strongest knight in the world. He is the current holder of the Dragon Sword Reid, which is a blade that is given by the Sword God. The sharpness of Reid would be able to tear even the world apart."
Reinhard : "That sounds right Kanade. However, I can only use my sword against those who I find worthy. This is not the case Elsa."
Elsa : "My My! I think you underestimated me! My Prince would be so sad."
Reinhard : "I don't want to be disrespectful Elsa. But I have a little interested in such a crazy person like your Prince."
Elsa : "I see. Then it's time! I'll slaughter you!"
Reinhard: "I would rather not use violence on a woman."
Elsa ran towards Reinhard with super speed.
Reinhard : "You misunderstood me Elsa--"
Reinhard took one step and released a shockwave of energy out of the ground, so much that even Elsa couldn't walk through that energy. Right when Elsa stopped, Reinhard kicked her.
Elsa got pushed against a wall and started bleeding quite a lot.
Elsa : "Great... no... extraordinary. Sad that you don't use that sword. It's quite upsetting to be honest."
Reinhard : "My Divine Protection of Shockwaves never lets me down. Now--"
Reinhard starred at her blades and they immediately tore apart and shattered in pieces.
Elsa : "Let me guess, the Divine Protection of Unarmed Combat? I am right, right?"
Reinhard : "You are Elsa, but one fact. When you lose your weapons. I highly suggest you to surrender as you have a pretty small chance of winning against me Elsa."
Elsa : "Ha--HAHAHA!"
Elsa started laughing like a psychopath.
Elsa : "If I lose my weapons, I use my fangs. If I lose my fangs I use my claws. If I lose my claws, I use my bones. If I lose my bones, I use my life. That is how the Blood Hunter fights!"
Elsa started running while saying that quote. She started jumping through the whole room with hyper sonic speed.
Right before she tried to attack him, Reinhard grabbed his secondary sword and blocked the strike.
Reinhard was able to block all her strikes with ease and actually landed one great strike on her and grabbed her by her throat.
Reinhard : "This one is mine!"
Reinhard used his other hand to grab the Insignia out of her pocket and released her.
Elsa : "Ugh! Don't worry. One day I'll kill you all! YOU HEAR ME?! I WILL SLAUGHTER YOU ALL LIKE ANIMALS!"
Elsa grabbed her cloak and jumped out of the window.
Emilia : "We... we survived!"
Jens : "Reinhard!"
Jens ran towards Reinhard and gave him a hug.
Jens : "Thank you so much! You saved me! Kanade! Emilia! Everyone!"
Reinhard : "Ah, it feels good that my actions are appreciated."
Jens : "I'm Jens, can you... give back the Insignia?"
Reinhard : "Hahaha, of course, Jens. It's in Felt's pocket."
Felt heard that and looked in her pocket. Magically, it turned out to be true.
Felt : "Ah! Thank you, Reinhard!"
Reinhard : "Nah, it's my job anyway."
Jens looked around, and for some reason. He couldn't find any trace of Krista, Lethias, and Sapphire.
Jens : "Huh... where are they?"
Reinhard : "Who do you mean?"
Jens : "Sapphire, Krista, and Lethias. They helped us with defeating Elsa."
Reinhard : "That sounds odd, my Divine Protection of Recalling doesn't recognize any of these names."
Jens : "Oh they aren't from here around."
Reinhard : "Hmm.. weird, I guess?"
Emilia and Angel were carrying Nathan to the moonlight in the middle of the bar and Emilia started healing him.
Everyone took a breath and Jens couldn't actually believe that victory was theirs.
Reinhard : "Well, I guess I go back to my mansion. It was nice meeting you all. Oh and Emilia, I will see you in a couple of weeks at the Ceremony, right?"
Emilia : "Yes, I'll be there."
Jens : "Huh, what Ceremony?"
Reinhard : "Felt, could you give Emilia the Insignia so I can explain it?"
Felt : "Yes! Of course!"
Felt grabbed the Insignia and Reinhard immediately noticed something. He grabbed Felt's arm and stared at her.
Felt : "Ough! What are you doing Reinhard?"
Jens : "Uh... Reinhard?"
Reinhard : "What's your name, surname, affiliation, occupation? WHO ARE YOU?"
Felt : "I'm--Felt. I don't have anything fancy like a surname. I live here! Now let me go!"
Reinhard : "I'm sorry for doing this!"
Reinhard pointed his hand palm towards her face and made her lose her consciousness.
Reinhard : "Haven't used the Divine Protection of Mind in years. Feels weird."
Jens : "Hey! What's going on? Why did you do that?"
Reinhard : "This girl... she might be someone I'm looking for in years! In a good way, she isn't a bandit that I'm looking for."
Jens : "Ah.. Well please treat her ni---"
Right at that moment, Jens lost his consciousness as he used all his mana inside of his body. He fell flat on the ground, yet he wasn't dead.
Emilia : "Oh no! I'll take him to my Mansion, I'll treat him and that boy called Nathan Harmonia."
Reinhard : "Ah.. I guess I really did save you all last moment."
Angel : "You're great, like always Reinhard."
Reinhard : "Enough about me, please. Kanade, you didn't work on schedule today. However, this was quite an emergency. I'll talk about the results with you tomorrow."
Angel : "Okay! But why are you so... irritated out of nowhere?"
Reinhard : "I'm not sure, but this girl called Felt might by either our hope or our demise. This might be one of the last days that we can look at the moon peacefully."
Emilia : "Ah... I see."
Suddenly, a girl walked in the bar. The girl has medium length pink hair that covers her left eye, large red eyes, and young features. She wears a maid uniform which she wears neatly.
Emilia : "Ahh! Ram! That's where you are! I lost you in the capital!"
Ram : "Lady Emilia. I see you had quite some trouble while looking for your Insignia, am I right?"
Emilia : "Yes. But these people helped me recover it. I take these two boys to the Roswaal Mansion. They'll join my camp as a way of showing respect and my honor."
Ram : "I see. Good evening Master Sword Saint. Good evening Kanade."
Ram bowed down towards everyone and grabbed Jens and took him with her. Emilia started carrying Nathan and took her with him.
They were dragging them towards a car. The car was being pulled by creatures known as Earth Dragons. They were dragons with legs. Nathan and Jens were in the back seat and Emilia and Ram were in the front seat.
Reinhard : "I'll take Felt with me. I'll see you tomorrow Kanade."
Angel : "Yes master!"
Reinhard looked at the sky while carrying Felt on his back.
Reinhard : "The moon is truly beautiful."
And that's where the night of the attack finally finishes. However, as expected, this is not the end of Jens' journey.
