Moonlight Sword Style.

The most fluid and defence oriented sword style among the ones out there. It's more like collecting dense mana into your sword without any precision and then practising the normal moves on it.

After you have learnt to collect enough mana into the sword, you are asked to create a sword of mana without using an actual sword. This allows you to collect dense mana more easily while using the sword style.

The next step is to learn to move the dense mana in the direction where you want. At this point, you can even add your own skills into it. With the heavy mana filled sword, it's more like a heavy sharp rock coming at you.

While a sword will be coming at you, you will feel like you're going against a heavy rock.

But what makes it even more dangerous is its fluidity. That is, once you have mastered how to move the mana flow, you can move that heavy rock like sword anywhere you want.

The name comes from the origin of the style because… It is literally from the moon. When the races came out after the second Cataclysm, it was later revealed that long ago a race had come from the moon and thrived on planet Vermillion.

However, even they hadn't achieved the level of perfection which Elle(Annabeth) had achieved after living with them for many years. Yeah, Elle moved to live with them to learn more about this sword style.

I heard that she had been with them for more than a decade before coming back to the humans, though she never really took part in any of the human expeditions except the ones which involved the strongest one.

........

I looked at her for a few moments, before a mischievous grin began forming on my face as I answered her question, making the purest face I had ever made in my entire life till now,"You had a really beautiful life, young girl. Alas, it's over now."

I generally don't like to annoy people(a blatant lie) and I don't like mischievous things too(I love it) but sometimes(most of the times) I do like to have fun here and there(everywhere I can).

"What?!" Elle looks at me with a slightly surprised expression as she tries to comprehend what I just spoke.

"I know it's hard to take it but try to calm down," I speak with the same pure smile as I move closer to her and try to calm her down. She looks at me with a complicated expression and then proceeds to take a fighting stance against me.

'Moon Style: Swordless,' I thought as I figured out the stance she took. Isn't that really amazing? A child of 16 mastered an art that people take decades to learn. However, compared to Annabeth I know… she is like a bucket of water placed in front of the sea. I can do even better than her…

Her eyes becomes even more wide and she gets really irritated at something before she proceeds to…

-Slash

Attack me from front and confused at her strange behaviour I dodge it with ease before I look at her with a curious expression. Just what is she thinking?

She does a couple of front flips creating a distance between us and then turns around with a perplexed expression before she takes another stance.

'Moon Style: Invisible Sword,' I smile at her as she channels mana into the air creating a mana sword out of thin air. That must have cost a lot of mana.

"What?!" she gets shocked at something as her eyes concentrate on something. Probably something related to her system.

'What is she looking at?' I was a bit curious about her behaviour before a wide grin appeared on her face and then…

"[Moon Style: Colourless Sword]" she shouts and my eyes look at her with a slightly amazed expression.

"That's…. She knew it at this point?! Just how freaky she is… wait! It's not her… then does that mean…" Elle is… much more of a monster than her sister? Not just body and potential but… everything else too.

Those idiots of the Rose family… especially Viscardi… to think that they killed off such a monster just because of their pathetic hypothesis.

She looks at me with a furious expression all of a sudden as she dashes towards me and I…

"Moon Style: Colourless Sword" speaks before dashing towards her. The best way of going against that sword style is to parry it. Anything else will put you at a disadvantage.

-Clash

I turn it to the side and then once again she creates a distance before turning away from me.

"So you want to play, huh? All right… let's play then," a bit annoyed at her behaviour I looked at her with a smile and then speak,"Moon… no… let me show you what real moon style is… MOON GOD'S FIRST DANCE: SWORDLESS!!" I spoke and then mana from all around the place began swirling around me.

She looks at me wide eyed as she observes me and takes a step back with fear in her eyes… yet she maintains the stance of not giving up.

First, I have to make sure she understands the difference between me and her. Only then she will listen to me… probably.

Hundreds of swords began forming in the surrounding air, and I began walking towards her. It was one of my original moves that I created after learning moon style from Elle(Annabeth). It isn't really strong unless you put a lot of mana into it… but it still is strong enough to keep your opponent occupied for as long as you want.

Elle then puts her mana away and then speaks for the first time,"Who are you?!" She looks like she wanted answers to so many questions.

"I am God," I speak with the same smile I had and then that graceful, beautiful lady in front of me replies me in her beautiful voice,"F*ck that sh*t! I can read your F*lthy mind, you freak!"

"..."

What?!

My eyes then turn a bit to the side and a screen comes in front of me, displaying the message

[Well… I did try to tell you but you were too engrossed doing your thing so…]

I slowly put my hands on my face and my mind went into a bit of turmoil of its own..

For a few seconds, I couldn't comprehend what had just happened. I tried recalling whatever I thought and ooofff… I wanted to crawl into a hole somewhere… This is too embarrassing. Can somebody kill me, please?

"What do you mean by'' Viscardi killed me?" She skipped a lot of questions.. Shouldn't she be asking about what this place is and things along those lines..

"I know this place is kind of like where I am trapped or something and based on your previous thoughts I really died but there is more to it than it seems… " She spoke as she put her forearm into another with one of her eyebrows slightly raised.

With the look of 'tell me everything you know,' she waited patiently while tapping her foot.

"Shouldn't you be worried right now. About the people who loved you or something?" I speak with a confused expression and the answer I got was,

"According to your words, my sister survived. That is all that matters to me… If it was at the cost of my life, then I am more than glad it happened that way and not the other way around."

My eyes open wide at her demeanour and I wonder if she was really 16 years old. Though.. This demeanour makes me wonder about something… Just what is her lingering desire if she hasn't passed on?

"What desire?" She was a bit confused, and then I observed Amon with a questioning gaze.

[You can do it however you want]

I nod at it before briefly explaining about everything that happened at the Bryxton lake first. She listened to my words silently and nodded at my words. At some point I asked her a few questions regarding the things which happened with her, to compare with the difference in timeline and she answered it without holding back.

According to her, in the previous timeline, the only thing that was different was that she never woke up after falling into the lake. Perhaps… by the time she would have woken up, Anna might have already overtaken her.

After that came the hard part as I began explaining my own story part by part. She was confused, scared, angry and then sad when she heard everything that had transpired with me. I somehow managed to not include a lot of important points and mostly focused on everything related to Annabeth.

When the part about me regressing came, she was a bit more shocked than previously, but didn't ask any questions from there. I explained how I planned to save both her and her sister and about the misinformation I had which caused some irregularities and finally how I ended up here with her.

For the next few moments, she kept her silence and looked at me and then at the system screen beside me. I wondered what she was thinking and after a few moments she then again looked at system and asked,

"What if I die in this world?"

[Then you will revive again]

"Good. Now.. what if he dies here?"

[Then he will revive again]

"Hey! How come I am hearing this first?" I was really shocked by Amon's words. Doesn't that mean I am an immortal?

[You never asked]

"Who in their right mind would ask what if he dies?" I asked before realising something then stupidly looking at Elizabeth smirking at me. Her look kind of irritated me and her smirk widened as she heard my words.

She looked at me for a few moments before speaking." What should I call you? Zero or Reaper, or should I go by the other alias you took?"

Confused at her question, I answer as I scratch my head," Why this question all of a sudden? Not that I mind, but you could choose between Zero and Reaper, as I have been mostly called by only these two names."

"All right, let's get started then. Fight me using no mana," she spoke suddenly, confusing me with what she was trying to do.

"Look, we don't have all the time… or perhaps we do.. nevertheless, let's start. I don't like waiting anyway, so come at me without using mana," she spoke again with a bit of irritation in her words.

I then moved towards her and took the stance of shadow style, however…"Use moon style," she spoke as she looked at me with a serious look.

'Is she training me? Didn't I just show her the difference between me and her' I thought as I looked at her…"[MOON GOD'S FIRST DANCE: SWORDLESS]" she spoke and my eyes widened as I looked at her observing me with a serious face.

The form was incomplete, but it was similar to mine. There were many mistakes in those, but to recreate it to this point just by watching it for the first time…a genius beyond generations.

'Looks like I just saved a monster…' I thought as I looked at her but…

"Don't show this to the Elizabeth of your timeline," she spoke as she moved towards me and I wondered why she said that, but still nodded as I observed the serious face she had.

"We are going to improve your moon sword style beyond perfection," she said with a bit of pride in her words. Though I wondered if it really was that easy… still no loss in trying, I suppose… but still I wanted to know… why is she trying to help me?

"I will help you master the Moon style, but there is something I need you to do for me in return… Tell me Reaper, have you heard about the Dungeon of Niflheim?"
