Chapter 2
"Restia, why did we even do this in the first place?" Kamito asks Restia who is in her elemental waffe form sheated at Kamito's right side. Currently she looks like The Vorpal Sword, but Kamito thought that it would attract suspicion about himself, so he decided to make it shorter infusing some divine power in it. After he has done that, the sword looked the same but it was smaller than how it was three years ago.
"Ara, ara, this time you decided on your own to do it, so don't try to put the blame on me." Restia calmly responds to the now worried Kamito.
After they left the shrine of that sealed spirit, Kamito decided he doesn't want to make Greyworth wait anymore in fear that maybe she would try to tell everyone his secrets. Because of that he decided to blast through the forest in hopes of arriving faster at the academy. For some reason it worked and it only took them 20 minutes to get to the gate of the academy, but of course half the forest was destroyed in the process...
"Let's get going then." Kamito exclaimed then made his way into the academy's grounds.
Saying Kamito is feeling uneasy is an understatement in its own right. After all that is a normal reaction to a boy who is walking in a academy where there are only girls... Not to say that all of this girls mind and body are as pure as holy water. It is the exact opposite of Kamito, not only because he is male, but because of more private 'stuff', thus meaning he would be called defiled and not pure by some people. But of course no one knows of this private 'stuff' except him and his beloved spirit.
"Why is a male here!?"
"Do you think he is some high-level pervert hiding in plain sight?"
"Nonsense! But he is quite cute, fufu."
Ignoring all the whispers about him he made his way inside the academy. After what seemed like an eternity he finally found himself infront of Greyworth's office. Just to be stoped by yelling coming from the inside...
"Headmistress, I dont understand! What is a man doing in this sacred grounds!? He could defile everyone!"
"Ellis, I already told you. He is my guest, not only that, but he is special."
"Do you mean him being an elementalist? Are you by some chance thinking that we, the Sylphid Knights are to weak to protect the academy!?"
"Of course not Ellis." The sarcasm in her voice could be noticed by the most emontionless person on Earth, but of course Ellis didn't notice it...
'I am already to bored of this...' Kamito opened the door to the office to be met by a girl with long blue hair tied up in a ponytail. When the girl turned around, she drew her sword and charged at Kamito, just to be stoped by what seemed like a shortsword coated in darkness.
"Ah Kamito, it's been a while" Greyworth said smirking.
"Indeed it has, old hag" Kamito replied with a mischievious smile on his face.
Kamito's boredoom grew as Ellis was trying to turn him in a salad, or that's what she said... But it ended up not working as Kamito was blocking every attack without even looking at her. 'And she is trying so hard too... It's a pity I must end it like this.' Kamito having thought that grew more serious and infused more divine power in his left hand which was holding the shortsword. Ellis having seen how far the situation escalated tried to summon her elemental waffe, just to be stopped by what looked like a very angry Greyworth.
"Ellis, stop right there! Do not harm Kamito or you will be facing very severe punishment." The headmistress yelled at Ellis.
"Y-Yes headmistress! I apologize for my behaviour." Ellis after saying that ran out of the room.
"Ah, thanks Greyworth. Though it would have been fun to see what kind of perverted punishment you would have given to that girl." Kamito pouted.
"Oh my, so you knew I would make her do something sligthly naughty." Greyworth said with a seductive tone.
"First things first, it was inevitable if it is you. Second, you always made me do strange stuff!" Kamito said slightly blushing for an unknown reason.
"Don't say it like that, plus I think it did give you some ideas on how to-"
"Shut up, now why did you call me here?" Kamito intrerupted the headmistress then asked her.
"You're no fun. Anyway, I have called you here to tell you that the Blade Dance will be in 2 months."
"What does the Blade Dance have to do with me?"
"Well this Blade Dance might be very important about the balance of the world, and she will be joining the Blade Dance too."
"she?" Kamito tilted his head to the side.
"Oh, haven't you heard? The strongest Blade Dancer Ren Ashbell will be joining too."
Kamito was shocked after hearing that.'Who could be trying to use my name!?' Kamito still shocked put on a calm face and said. "Who do you think it is?"
"Who knows?" Greyworth replied nonchalantly.
"Anyway, is this all?"
"Of course not, you will be joining this academy too." After Greyworth said that she put a stack of papers on her desk in front of Kamito.
"Wait, wait, wait. Did you just say that I need to enroll at this academy full of girls!?" Kamito said with a very irritated face.
"That is exactly what I said." Greyworth calmly replied.
"And why would I do that?"
"Because I might accidentaly spit out some of your secrets," Then Greyworth puts on a more serious face and continues "and because this Blade Dance requires teams of five in order to participate, from what I know you have no team. So that is why you will find teammates in this academy."
"Fine I will enroll... But this girls didn't even step on a battlefield. Not only that, but from what I sense from them they are very weak compared to me..."
"There are some precious gems too."
"Anyway..." Kamito after saying that signs the papers regarding his enrollment at the academy.
"And here is your uniform." Greyworth after saying that put a stack of similar uniforms in front of Kamito.
"Where can I change into the uniform?" Kamito asked the old lady in front of him.
"You can go change in the bathroom, though I would prefer if you do it here." The headmistress said the last part with a seductive voice.
"Tch, no way I would do that. Now if you excuse me old hag..." After saying that Kamito had gone in the bathroom to change in to his uniform.'I wonder... How the hell does she know my sizes!?'
"Kamito, don't worry, you look good." Restia said trying to comfort Kamito. She was in her human form of course.
"That's not the problem... The problem is, how will I deal with all the girls here!?" Kamito still confused thinks of a plan.
"Well, I could stay in human form and kill all the girls who approach you?" Restia said with sarcasm in her voice.
"That would be a good idea, except for the killing part of course..." Kamito smiled at Restia after saying that.
After Kamito and Restia left the bathroom, Greyworth was suspicious about something...
"You two didn't do anything inadequate right?" Greyworth asked the two of them, following after the question she narrowed her eyes.
"Who do you take me for!?" Kamito yelled at Greyworth, apparently this greatly angered him.
"Well, it is good to see that you didn't defile the bathroom with your scent." Greyworth smirked after saying that.
'This old hag... Her teasing methods could be considered torture for pure maidens.'
"Ellis" Greyworth yelled, after some seconds Ellis entered the office."Give Kamito and his contracted spirit a tour of the academy, from now on he is a student at the academy."
"Understood"
The tour had gone better than expected, except the part where Ellis proudly announced that she constructed that 'thing' of a house. Kamito wasn't angry, but Restia was a whole other story.
"Raven Class, huh?" Kamito found himself in front of a classroom, when he examined the sign, it wrote Raven Class.
Kamito and Restia waited in the class for the students to come. After half an hour the class was full of students. Though Kamito expected more students, but this is an elementalist training school after all. The teacher, Freya Grandol beaconed for him to come in front of the class to introduce himself.
"My name is Kamito Kazehaya, as you can see I am a male elementalist. I hope we can all get along."
Suddenly he got bombarded by questions...
"What is your favorite food?"
"Where do you come from?"
"What type is your contracted spirit?"
"Eh, I dont really have a favorite food... As from where do I come from, it's somewhere from the Quina Empire. My spirit is of darkness attribute." Kamito lazily responded all the questions, luckily Restia was in her elemental waffe form so he didn't get anymore questions...
*THUD*
The whole class stoped speaking after seeing their teacher getting out of her nerves. Kamito walked to take the front seat in the middle row, but when Claire saw that she launched her whip at him. Kamito saw the whip coming at him and extended his hand so that the whip wrapped around his wrist.
"What do you think you are doing? Your place is at your master's side." Claire proudly announced looking straight in Kamito's eyes.
The whole class was shocked at Claire's display and the students started whispering between them about the situation.
"First things first, you are not my master. Secondly, what is with that attitude?"
"Hmph, what did you expect after stealing my spirit!" Claire snaped at him.
"As I said before, I did not steal your spirit, maybe you could call that stealing if the spirit was yours in the first place." Kamito said with a cold voice. Claire felt a little bit of fear creeping up to her from how cold his voice sounded.
Restia seeing the situation decided to transform in her original form and stop the arguing. To say the class was shocked was an understatement, after all a girl just appearing in the class descending from above with her black angel wings.
"Ara, ara, little hellcat. As Kamito said that spirit wasn't yours, and don't forget that he saved your life by contracting with it." Restia after saying that conjured some black flames in her hand and burned the whip.
"Ah, thank you Restia." Kamito smiled at Restia.
"Uh, K-Kamito. Who is that girl?" One student asked.
"This is my first contracted spirit Restia."
"What do you mean by first?" One student decided to ask, the whole class was curious at what he meant.
"Ah, ah, well... As I said she is my first contracted spirit, but I have a second one thanks to a certain someone..." Kamito said the last part while glaring at Claire.
Although Claire was calm, the whole class was like 'KYAAAAA, two contracted spirits? How is that possible' Kamito didn't want to explain anything and decided to sit down. It seems the teacher got on her nerves again and slamed the thick book she was carrying on the table. This calmed the class, everything continued normally after that.
After class ended Kamito was the topic of the whole school, Kamito thought it was to be expected since he is a male elementalist in a school full of pure maidens.
Claire still thought of a way to get Kamito to be her contracted spirit, in her opinion he needs to take responsability for 'stealing' that spirit. 'I will bring him food!' That's what she thought, she read somewhere that men can't resist free food, so she decided to bring him food, or rather canned food because she can't cook...
Kamito and Restia were walking around the academy, Restia was still nervous at that 'thing' Ellis built.
"Kamito, are we seriously gona stay in that thing Ellis built?" Restia asked Kamito.
"Well, If you don't want too we can summon the cabin in which we stayed for these three years?"
"Yeah, let's do that. As 'The Strongest Blade Dancer' you wouldn't want to be treated like that would you?" Restia stated.
"Eh, well... I suppose you are right."
After their conversation they had gone outside the academy's grounds in order to summon the cabin in which they lived before.
"Ancient Tomb of the Demon King, appear before me!" After Kamito said that a portal appeared before him. The Tomb was not of the Human World or Astral Zero, it was like a third dimension. And only Kamito himself and Restia could see the Tomb.
Kamito found his cabin somewhere in the Tomb and summoned it to the Human World. It was a simple cabin: one bedroom, one kitchen, a bathroom and a living room. Although this was quite big for a cabin, they still called it a cabin. It was probably because they lived in the forest for those three years that they got used to calling it a cabin.
Rinslet was intrigued by the arrival of the male elementalist. Because of that she decided to cook him some food and bring it to him so he could become her servant.
Claire was walking with the cans of food in her hand, her destination was Kamito's cabin. She heard from some students that a cabin has appeared outside the school grounds, so she immediatly thought it was Kamito's and got on her way. Little did she know that a surprise was waiting for her there...
Kamito and Restia were drinking some tea after eating some steak, Kamito cooked it of course since Restia can't cook very well, when they suddenly heard a knock at the door.
"I'l go and see who it is." Kamito said to Restia then got up and went to open the door.
"Who are you?" Kamito asked the blonde girl and emerald eyes standing in front of his house with a bowl of soup in hand.
"Ah, I am Rinslet Laurenfrost and this is my personal maid, Carol" Rinslet said the last part while pointing at Carol.
"Nice to meet you." Carol said with a smile.
"Ah, nice to meet you too, Rinslet and Carol. So what brings you here?" Kamito asked the two girls.
"I thought that you might be hungry so I decided to bring you some food. I will give this soup to you if you bark like a dog and become a servant of the Laurenfrost family." Rinslet proudly said.
Kamito seeing this instantly closed the door, but not before biding them good night.
"Who was it?" Restia asked Kamito who came back to sit at the table.
"Rinslet Laurenfrost, she decided to give me some food if I bark like a dog and become a servant to her family..." Kamito simply said.
"Ufufufu, is that s-so?" Restia was still laughing.
Suddenly they heard a sound, it sounded like someone was kicking the door.
"What the..." Kamito went to the door and opened it just to find Rinslet and Carol there, Rinslet still with the bowl of soup in hand.
"Lick my feet and become my servant, then this soup will be yours" Rinslet said with a smile on her face.
Kamito after hearing that instantly tried to close the door but Rinslet put her feet between the door. When the door hit her feet she had tears in her eyes.
"It is rude to close the door on a lady's face!" Rinslet yelled.
"I'm not hungry and I don't want your soup. Now if you would take your feet out of the door's way, I would be grateful" Kamito stated the first part in a cold tone and the second in a normal one.
Rinslet was about to say something when she got interrupted by a familiar voice coming from behind her.
"Rinslet Laurenfrost what are you doing here?" Claire asked Rinslet with a harsh tone with the cans of food in hand.
"I am obviously giving Kamito some food, now begone."
"Who said you are allowed to feed my contracted spirit!?" Claire spat.
"I'm not your contracted spirit and never be!" Kamito simply raised his voice while saying that.
"What's happening here?" A voice said from behind Claire.
"Ellis!" The three said at the same time.
"Well?" Ellis simply asked. She was with Reisha and Rakka.
"I came here to give Kamito some food but this dog was already here." Claire simply stated with a 'hmph'.
"As that flat-chest said, I am here to give Kamito some food in exchange for becoming a servant for the Laurenfrost." Rinslet proudly said.
"Hey! Who are you calling a flat-chest!"
"You, obviously." Rinslet said pointing at Claire.
"You dog!" After saying that Claire droped the canned food and started summoning Scarlet. When Rinslet saw that she started summoning her contracted spirit Fenrir, a white wolf.
"Hey stop right there, this is my house!" Kamito shouted at the two who were going to fight right in front of his house.
Obviously they didn't stop and their contracted spirits appeared. When they were about to attack a gust of wind stopped them.
"Enough!" Ellis yelled at the two for causing such a commotion. "You will be reported to the Headmistress and receive your punishment." Ellis and her companions started to leave.
"Are you afraid?" Claire simply asked Ellis.
Ellis and her companions stopped in their tracks once they heard that. They turned around to find Claire with her Flame Tongue in hand.
"Yeah, are you afraid?" Rinslet also said, summoning her elemental waffe.
"What are you getting at?" Ellis asked the two of them.
"Yeah, what is a backwater noble and the sister of a traitor getting at?" Rakka said smirking.
"Who did you call a backwater noble?" Rinslet glared daggers at Rakka.
"I won't let you insult my sister!" Claire also glared daggers at Rakka.
Both of them were ready to attack, but they suddenly felt a very ominous presence coming from the cabin. When they turned to see, Claire and Rinslet found Kamito standing in the doorway staring at them with murderous intent for some reason they did not know. If that wasn't enough, he also had black miasma around him. This made for a very terrifying sight.
"Can you stop arguing and trying to fight in front of my house?" Kamito simply asked them, though they were still scared from the divine power he was emanating, even Ellis and her companions were shaking in fear from the power.
"What's happening here?" Another voice entered their ears, it was Restia.
"A fight almost started and I was worried that they might blow the cabin in the process." Kamito simply answered Restia.
'What's with this power!?' The girls seemed to be thinking the same thing, then something foolish surfaced in their minds.
"Uh, Kamito? I wana have a duel with you!" Ellis walked in front of Kamito and asked him.
"Captain! Your stealing a march on us!" Reisha said.
"Yea!" Rakka agreed with Reisha.
"HEY!" Claire and Rinslet shouted at the same time after seeing that Ellis completely ignored them now. Their contracted spirits had returned to Astral Zero when they were shaking in fear due to Kamito's power.
'Where did that come from?' Kamito wondered.
"Well Kamito? Give an answer to the girl." Restia said, interrupting Kamito's thoughts.
"Uh, sure." Kamito answered.
"HEY! We are still here you know!" Claire and Rinslet shouted once again.
"Then come to the Astral Gate after two hours." Ellis simply said to Kamito. Ignoring Claire and Rinslet who are still shouting.
"Okay" Kamito nodded then went inside the cabin with Restia.
"About you two... You should stay here at the academy." Ellis finally said to the two who stopped shouting.
"As if, I will come to watch at least." Rinslet said then turned around and left with Carol. Claire followed after Rinslet without saying anything.
After the two left, Ellis and her companions resumed their patrol.
"I am thinking you won't go all out on her, right?" Restia said to Kamito who resumed drinking the tea that he didn't finish because Rinslet was kicking at the door earlier.
"Why would I do that? If I go all out I might kill her on accident." Kamito simply answered.
"Huh, already being confident in your abilities?" Restia smirked, the sarcasm in her voice was too obvious.
"Of course, considering all the training I did. Not only that, but I want to also see what she's capable off." Kamito stated.
"As expected from you, Kamito." Restia said then started going to the bedroom. Kamito thought she wanted to rest, but when she motioned for him to come over he knew that wasn't the case. Kamito finished his tea and followed Restia to the bedroom, already knowing that she wants to have some 'fun' before the duel with Ellis.
Author's note: Chapter 3 will be released after a few days. And I will reveal some of the past later in this story.
