One More Time: Rebirth

"Why are you here? This is my alone time with Edge." Tsukiyomi spoke with a light smile on her face.

"Edge told me I can join you guys. He said you can teach me and him 'Air Walk." Eva responded with a smile of her own. What she said was true, and I wanted to invite Setsuna as well, but he said that he has his own way to achieve flight. Well, that made sense seeing as he does use the Eastern Kingdom style swordsmanship. So he most likely would achieve flight using his sword.

"Is this true Edge?" Tsukiyomi looked at me with that smile of hers. Though I wanted to answer honestly, that threatening smile of hers made me want to do otherwise.

"Kukuku, why aren't you answering Edge? I'm just asking a normal question. No need to be afraid, I'm not mad, no not at all."

"Why do you even need to ask Edge? Didn't I already answer your question?"

"Don't interfere, third wheel. I'm not asking you, I'm asking Edge." Tsukiyomi responded without looking at Eva.

"Who are you calling a third wheel?! Well, I guess the old lady is feeling insecure, that's why she keeps on pressuring Edge."

I could practically see sparks flying between the two, as they spoke. While I was thinking about what to do in this situation, I heard someone shout.

"My Supreme Loli Goddess! I Leto your humble servant has arrived." As expected the familiar face of Leto-senpai appeared bowing in front of Tsukiyomi. Of course, trailing behind him was Clarise-senpai.

"Sorry everyone, we heard from Setsuna-kun that Tsukiyomi-san was here teaching how to use something called 'Air Walk.' So Leto and I were wondering if we could join you guys. The two of us are willing to pay for the lessons. Are two white gold coins enough, or should I give five?"

White gold coins?! One white gold coin was equivalent to twenty gold coins. With that much money, I could buy that expensive sword I saw in the school's weapon shop. As expected from children of nobles, they got a lot of money...

Well, I guess I too am a noble's child and I also have a lot of money coming from the school and my mom. But all that money goes to feeding Tsukiyomi. Maybe with this, I could finally buy a set of new equipment. As I was thinking about all that I saw Tsukiyomi receiving the money.

"Very well, since there is already a third wheel here, might as well teach you guys as well. Kukuku, do you see this third wheel, at least they had the decency to pay for the lessons."

Hearing what Tsukiyomi said, I could see Eva's face trying to hold in her anger. She then took out ten white gold coins. "Then, I'm... S...So...Sorry! I apologize for my behavior, here please take this as payment for my lessons."

"Kukuku, I guess I can reluctantly accept your money."

"Tsukiyomi do you really need to do this. We're all friends here, can you please just give back there money and do it for free." Even though I also wanted to use that money to buy new things, but I was the one who invited Eva to join. At that time I wasn't actually thinking about her paying.

"What are you saying Edge-kun?! The holy loli Goddess is going to teach us personally. Giving her this kind of offering is the bare minimum." Leto-senpai responded before Tsukiyomi could speak.

"He's kinda right Edge-kun... Not about the holy loli Goddess thing, but in regards to the payment. I won't feel right if I don't give Tsukiyomi-san the proper compensation for her work." Clarise-senpai gave her opinion as well.

"...As much as I don't like to say it, but... The two senpais are right." Eva spoke begrudgingly as well.

"Kukuku, you hear that Edge, these people are willingly giving me these white gold coins. I did not force them to do anything."

"Fine, if that's what they want."

After that little bit of delay Tsukiyomi finally started to teach us about 'Air Walk.'

"Today I'll be teaching you 'Air Walk' which is an Ethereal skill. The equivalent skill of this that human society uses would be the Northern Kingdom's [Wing] spell and the Eastern Kingdom's flying on top of one sword. I don't know if the Western Kingdom has an equivalent skill as well. Don't worry even though it's an Ethereal Skill, anyone can use it as long as they have mana."

"Anyway, upon my understanding of both human skills, I truly believe that 'Air Walk' to be superior among the three skills. The reason I believe this is because of the mobility upon using the skill. When I battled the Eastern Kingdom commander I noticed that his movement was restricted to how he could move his sword. He was standing on top of it which made it harder to move. Though it was faster than me in pure speed, in battle maneuverability is better than speed."

"As for the Northern Kingdom's [Wing] here I'll show you. Gather upon my call blessed winds of the world, guide my body to the clouds above, [Wing]"

After reciting her spell, a bit of my mana was drained. Based on the level of mana consumption, [Wing] must be a B class spell. Tsukiyomi then floated above the ground and shifted her body left and right, as she swooped in here and there.

"As you can see, to move while using [Wing] I need to shift my body to make it move in that direction. In battle, this would not be much of a problem for mages, but if you want to use close-range combat it would be rather hard. This limits the possibilities you can use in battle."

Tsukiyomi then canceled the [Wing] spell and then stepped onto the air. It looked like she was stepping on some invisible ground.

"Now as for 'Air Walk' using it makes you feel like the air and the ground is no different. You can move the same way as you do on the ground, in fact, you can move even better."

Tsukiyomi then started running on air, she then jumped forward kicked on empty air and then did a somersault.

"You see these are the advantages of 'Air Walk.' So it's time for you guys to do it as well. All you need to do is gather mana onto your feet, afterward, you need to spread the mana you gathered outward. Then you need to concentrate on hardening the outward mana. Finally, you need to properly control the output. Since if you can't control your mana properly, not only will you be unable to create a proper foothold, but you might drain your mana quickly."

Tsukiyomi explained it as if it was the easiest thing to do. As I expected, what came afterward was a series of mistakes. This made Eva and Tsukiyomi start bickering again.

"You're the worst teacher I have ever seen."

"Well, you're the worst student I have ever had the misfortune of seeing."

While the two of them were bickering, Leto-senpai was backing up Tsukiyomi, while Clarise-senpai was trying to stop the fight. Well, unlike them I was able to do it rather quickly since my control of mana has always been better than most.
