One More Time: Rebirth

Chapter 81: The calm before the storm

Serina Regius' POV:

It was finally time as we have gathered enough forces to raid the true humanity's HQ. I looked at my husband who was looking rather worried. It was my first time seeing him look like that. He who was born in the Regius family was always sworn to be the Kingdom's sword. A blade should never show fear or hesitation, yet my beloved husband looked like nothing like the kingdom's blade.

"Do not worry my dear, as long as the two of us are together we are invincible!"

Noticing what I said my husband looked at me finally smiling.

"You haven't changed even after all these years."

"Of course, I will always be me as long as you will stay by my side. Wasn't that our promise all those years ago?"

"Yes... You're right. I almost forgot."

"You are the kingdom's blade, but more than that you are my husband. The husband of the scarlet witch is not a coward. So let's get this mission over and return to our children's' side!" 

My husband nodded his head in agreement as he smiled at me. It was a nostalgic smile of fearlessness that a certain young man showed me all those years ago. With that alongside the armies of the Regius household, we stormed the true humanity's HQ.

...

It's been a few weeks since I summoned Tanith. I found out a lot of things about her. First was her appetite was as endless as Tsukiyomi's. The two would often challenge each other to an eating contest, Eri would sometimes join too, but she couldn't keep up with those two monsters of eating. 

Another thing I found out was she is the youngest ancient dragon. Her situation was similar to Tsukiyomi's. 

...

Today was another peaceful day in school. Tsukiyomi and Tanith went to eat out, while Eri, Willa, and Terumi were training in magic.

So Sarah and I went to visit Leto-senpai until now he hasn't woken up. Even I'm starting to get a bit worried about his situation. For some reason, I felt like his coma was my fault. That was what I felt before Sarah said "Senpai I hope you get well soon." 

After saying that, Leto-senpai suddenly burst out of the bed. "HAHAHA, YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND, MY LOLI WIFE!"

'This idiot is incurable! Also, who's your wife?! Want me to reap you a new one?!' 

"How long were you awake?" Clarise-senpai asked her face showing no expression.

"HAHAHA since yesterday!" You truly are an idiot senpai. Well, I hope you rest in peace.

"I see, I see, so you've made me worried for a full day without reason... YOU IDIOT!" Clarise-senpai punched the idiot in the face. It would seem that Leto-senpai needs to rest some more.

After visiting Leto-senpai I was about to head to the restaurant Tsukiyomi and Tanith were eating at. But as I was walking I spotted two people I know, it was Terumi and Tsukiyomi. The two seem to be having an important conversation. As I got near I was about to eavesdrop in the conversation, but before I could hear anything Willa approached me. 

"Hey, Edge-senpai do you have a moment?" 

"Huh?... Oh, Yeah I got some time, so what do you need Willa?" 

"Umm senpai can you accompany me to a weapon shop? I need to replace my spear that broke." 'Oh right! I broke her spear that one time.'

"Sure I can, I'll even pay for the spear. I was the one who broke it after all." Willa waved her hand frantically in front of me. 

"No need to do that! I just want you to help me pick a better spear."

"Sure if that's what you want..." Someone then tugged on the sleeves of my blazer. I looked beside me and saw that it was Eri.

"Pick mine as well," Eri asked. Then on my other arm, someone suddenly hugged it. It was of course my cute little sister Sarah.

"Please help me choose new ones as well big bro."

"Fine, I'll choose for you guys too. But you know it's better if you guys pick your own weapons."

"NO, YOU NEED TO BE THE ONE TO PICK!" All three girls said so in chorus. I was surprised that even Eri said it with a relatively loud voice.

"Kukuku do not worry Edge you're not alone. Terumi here also asked me to pick a weapon for him."

"Is that so... Hey Tsukiyomi, where's Tanith?"

"The lizard? She said she would like to look for more delicious food. I was about to accompany her but was stopped by these people... So Edge why is it that the first person you ask for after seeing me is that lizard?"

Sh*t! For some reason Tsukiyomi was angry. I only asked because I didn't see Tanith. What to say so that she can calm down?! Sh*t! I need to think fast. While I was thinking at the maximum capacity of my brain. Like a savior Eva suddenly popped into our conversation. 

"Hey... Umm, I heard you guys are going to go get new weapons..." While Eva was having difficulty for some reason at saying what she wants. Tsukiyomi shifted her notice from me to her.

"So what do you want Eva the pervert?" 

"Can you please stop calling me that! Just, please... A... Also, I need to look at the new stock of weapons on sale. So if it's ok can I go with you guys?" 

"Sure, let's go already." Answering Eva's question I successfully evaded Tsukiyomi's anger I think.

It was already nearing sunset when we finished picking weapons for everyone. 'I wonder why they were so happy when I picked for them?...' Of course I already know the answer, I just didn't want to acknowledge it. As I was setting that thought in the back of my mind, a messenger appeared before us. 

"Edge Regius and Sarah Regius, please come with me, Princess Serillia wishes to speak with you."

Sarah and I left Tsukiyomi and the others in the first-year dorm. Tsukiyomi and Eri insisted that they should come, but the messenger explicitly said that only Sarah and I were summoned. 'The princess wants to meet us I wonder why?'

I was a little anxious but when I saw Sarah's reaction all my anxiety was blown away.

"Big bro! The princess is calling us, the real one!" She was totally excited. I patted her head and smiled, but then she looked at me and turned silent, as if realizing something.

"Hey, big bro? Why did the princess call us? Actually, why does big bro know a lot of girls? The only guys I see brother hang out with are Leto and Terumi."

I couldn't answer my little sister because even I didn't know the answer. So the only option was to laugh awkwardly until we reach the princess.
