Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 473 - The Eternal Moon



At a lost island hidden within the world were the monsters of a long-forgotten era reside. On that island, for a few years now the monsters were going wild and slaughtering each other.

A few years back this wouldn't have happened, as the Dragon that resided on the island wouldn't allow such a large-scale fight. Ever since the Dragon residing on the island was killed by a random sword strike that flashed through the sky, the monsters were now fighting to replace it as the king of the island.

During this turmoil, there emerged three monsters that stood out from the rest and had their own territories in which they protect. One was the Drake King an S class monster that ruled over the wyverns and drakes.

The next one was the Chaotic Hound, a legendary beast that had its whole black body burning hotter than magma.

The last one was the Emperor Ape, a monster that lived during the age of myth. It had a powerful physical body that could withstand even the deadliest of spells.

As these three monsters continued to fight each other to become the ruler of all monsters within the island, they haven't noticed, the being that was more powerful than the Dragon was just there sleeping in the middle of the island under a powerful magic array.

This magic array blocked the presence and mana of the person sleeping within, it was also there to protect the person from any outside force. It was meant to deactivate when a certain mana fluctuation touches the pillars that form the magic array.

...

One day as the three powerful monsters of the hidden island were once again fighting they stumbled upon the magic array. They all felt a dangerous vibe from the magic array and decided to cooperate and destroy the dangerous thing first before they continued their battle. 

The magic array had six pillars that acted as mediums so the three monsters who could feel the flow of mana knew what to destroy. Even though the pillars were made of sturdy materials and wouldn't have been scratched with the strength of the monsters present if it was still in its best condition. The only reason the monsters were able easily to destroy the pillars was that they have long been eroded by time. After destroying the pillars an otherworldly beauty appeared before the monsters.

She had long wavy black hair that cascaded down her back towards her hips. She was an enchanting figure, who was wearing a white blouse that showed a bit of her chest, and a short red skirt that emphasized her thighs and long legs. She was also wearing a black kimono over her blouse which only covered her arms and a bit of her back.

The beauty rubbed her eyes as she yawned. She then started to stretch her body right in front of the monsters. The ferocious monsters did not attack. since the moment they spotted the beautiful maiden they could not sense any mana coming from her, yet their instincts were telling them to run. They could not understand what was happening and stood in place, confused. 

"What year is it?" The beauty spoke as she opened her eyes and looked at the three monsters. The moment she looked at them, the monsters wanted to flee but something was stopping them. 

"A wingless lizard (Drake King), a dog (Chaotic Hound), and a monkey (Emperor Ape). Were you the ones who killed Tanith's little subordinate?... No, you three cannot be the ones. Even the three of you together wouldn't be a match to even the weakest of those winged lizards... Well, whatever, I will figure that out later, for now, I need to punish the fools who dare disturb a lady's sleep." 

The beauty raised her hands, the three monsters who couldn't retreat suddenly charged at the beauty. Yet before they could even get close enough, the beauty swung her hand and they disappeared from existence all except for the Emperor Ape, the one with the highest physical defense among the three. 

Once he was able to survive the Emperor Ape continued to charge forward and was about to grab the beauty. The Emperor Ape was the size of a hill and one of its hands could easily grab onto the beauty. Yet as it was about to grab hold of the beauty his hand stopped mid-way, he and even the beauty herself was surprised. 

"I have enough mana for my shield to activate, how can that be? Does that mean..." The Emperor Ape seeing the beauty being distracted no longer tried to fight. Now that the beauty was looking somewhere else and was distracted, the Emperor Ape took this chance to escape. As he was fleeing the Emperor Ape suddenly heard a creepy laugh. 

"Kukuku, so this was the right time to wake up after all." The Emperor Ape then saw something falling from the sky. It was the beautiful maiden, she descended from above and slammed into the Emperor Ape creating a crater underneath. 

She was now on top of the screaming Emperor Ape. "Kukuku, I wonder what I should do with you, little monkey? On one hand, you disturbed my sleep, but on the other hand, you have allowed me to wake up at the right time, where I can meet him again. Still, the way you're screeching while a beautiful maiden such as I, is riding your back, makes it seem like you think I'm heavy... Well whatever, I guess I could spare your life since this is a joyous occasion." 

The maiden let go of the Emperor Ape who sprinted away as fast he could. Seeing how fast the Emperor Ape was escaping the maiden shrugged her shoulders and no longer bothered it. She then jumped upward into the air. The jump made the ground she was standing on crack and when she got up into the air she didn't fall down, as she stood suspended in the air. 

This was one of the old techniques called 'Air Walk' this technique made thin footholds out of mana in the air to step on. The beautiful maiden closed her eyes and after a while, she giggled as she opened her eyes while looking at the horizon. 

'So I can finally meet you again. Even now I can feel the mark of our contract still etched into your soul. Which Ethereal other than I the Eternal Moon Tsukiyomi could claim that she has a contract with the Strongest Mortal Soul... I wonder if that big lizard is awake as well and is with him now? Also, I wonder how many flies this current reincarnation has, buzzing around him? Well, it doesn't matter for as long as I can get to meet him again.'

Tsukiyomi had a very enchanting smile on her face that could seduce any who saw it. Yet at the same time that she was smiling, she was also crying. Tsukiyomi remembered the last incarnation Rei Kuraki, the last time he saw him off was when she and the others were delaying a horde of the Old Gods, while Rei was off to fight the ORIGIN. 

She and the others held on until the bitter end, yet once again, in the corner of her eye, she was once again forced to see her beloved fall. Tsukiyomi gnashed her teeth as the pain of that memory resurfaced on her mind. 

'This time for sure, I will die first before I allow you to fall..' Tsukiyomi then started running through the air towards the area where Ren was currently at.
