Chapter 271: Luna and Otsu – ThePrologue
“Boy, you should learn the proper way to speak to your elders.”
Hercules was openly glaring at Mark and the tension in the room became visibly heightened as Hercules tightened his hand into a fist in preparation for an attack. Mark just glared right back at him fearlessly.
“Why don’t you try to teach me, old man.”
Miyamoto Musashi was still drinking his tea calmly as he watched the two of them glaring each other down. Miyamoto Otsu offered to pour him another drink, but Musashi simply raised his hand to tell her not to bother. There was no need for that.
“Please try to calm yourselves. The conversation is not over yet—”
“Isn’t it?”
Mark cut Musashi off without taking his eyes off Hercules. Musashi turned to Mark curiously, and Mark continued.
“I came here because of how honorable your message sounded. I thought I would meet someone respectable with something sensible to say. Instead, I came here to see two cowards who were so afraid of death that they would do anything to escape from it. I already told you what I think about your wish. Tough shit. This meeting is over.”
The tension between Mark and Hercules was steadily building, and everyone there was sitting on needles as they waited to see who would move first. Musashi calmly finished off the tea in his cup and gently put the cup down while speaking.
“Well, it appears we have reached the end of this conversation. I would have liked it to last longer than it did. Perhaps in another world.”
“To hell with all that!”
Slam!
BOOM!
Hercules slammed his hand into the table, and it broke into a million pieces that all flew into the air from the massive blow! Luna leaned back from the table, and the next few moments seemed to happen in slow motion as she saw everybody around the table move at the same time!
[Servant KNIGHT has revoked his non-aggression pact.]
[Servant PAWN has revoked his non-aggression pact.]
[Servant ROOK has revoked his non-aggression pact.]
Shink!
A sword appeared from inside Musashi’s kimono as he leaned forward to slash Luna in half! Hercules shot off the ground to reach for Mark, and Mark already flipped off the ground with his feet rising to intercept Hercules as well as Musashi’s sword. Luna knew that if Musashi’s sword got to her, she would be dead meat! But just before Musashi could cut her, Mark slammed his leg into the flat edge of the blade and redirected it up.
Luna immediately shouted.
“Merlin, the meeting is fucked!”
Phwoom!
A magic circle appeared in front of Musashi, and he was immediately thrown back as a massive gale of wind blew out from the circle! He flipped through the air and landed on his feet before sliding backward and flicking his sword once!
Shink!
Musashi’s sword was a 1.5-meter-long katana with intricate carvings decorating the edge of the blade. The hilt and guard were matte-black, and Musashi held it with both hands to his side in the traditional samurai stance as he faced off against Merlin.
Slam!
Hercules broke through the center table and aimed for Mark, but before he could even get to Mark, Mark was already on the move as he flipped off the floor! Mark was planning to hit both Hercules and Musashi at the same time, but once Merlin showed up, Mark changed his target and focused entirely on Hercules!
[Critical Hit]!
Boom!
Mark delivered a massive kick to the chest that sent Hercules flying! Hercules flew into the wall of the dome, and Mark had to immediately put up his guard as Hercules shot back out from the wall and delivered a punch into Mark’s crossed arms!

Boom!
‘Fuck!’
Mark cursed internally as he felt the bones in his hands rattle from the punch! What was that!? Hercules suddenly shot forward far faster than Mark could follow! Is it some sort of skill from the Rook, or is it just something that Hercules could do with mana? Mark did not know the answer to this question, but he was smart enough to jump back to reduce the punch’s impact!
Mark was thrown back, and Hercules followed after him as they crashed through the wall of the dome and into the open city.
Luna tried her best to stay out of the way as the two of them were tussling, but once they crashed through the wall, she calmed down a little to catch her breath. She was no longer able to augment her strength using mana, so she only had the strength of a regular human here. She could tire out very easily!
Luna gained her breath back, and she turned around to find where the master of the knight was. If she could take out the Master of Knight, then it would make things much easier for them! Killing the Master of Knight would practically make her the only accessible master, and none of the other servants would think about killing her because they would all want to sign contracts with her to remain in the game somehow.
Shink!
Woosh!
Luna’s heightened senses were the only thing that saved her at that moment! She fell to the ground as something passed overhead, and she heard the sound of a knife stabbing into the far wall!
Luna turned around to see who was responsible for it, and her eyes widened as she saw Miyamoto Otsu holding a large knife in her hand as she ran towards Luna like a bat out of hell!
There was this dead, empty look in Otsu’s eyes that terrified Luna down to the bone! Luna shivered as she knew that she could not let Otsu get too close! Luna immediately turned and grabbed a sharp piece of wood that had broken off from the table before throwing it at Otsu!
Slam!
Otsu slammed her fist into the board and destroyed it without stopping her stride. Luna had to rush back up to her feet as she faced off against the dangerous woman!
Slash!
Slash!
Luna jumped back twice to dodge two slashes that would have cut through her belly and spilled her guts! She sidestepped a slash from Otsu before catching the outstretched arm! Otsu quickly reversed her blade before grabbing the hilt with her other hand and slashing Luna with it!
Luna grit her teeth to hold in a scream as a shallow cut dug into her shoulder! She quickly tried to slam her knee into Otsu’s elbow to break it!
Stab!
Otsu brought the blade down and stabbed Luna in the thigh, digging deep into Luna’s skin and forcing Luna to let go of Otsu’s hand with a scream! Otsu slashed Luna again, but this time, Luna used Otsu’s momentum to trap the hand under her armpit before Luna delivered a massive elbow to Otsu’s nose!
Slam!
Crack!
The sound of bone cracking under her elbow was like music to Luna’s ears, but Luna couldn’t really enjoy the small victory as Otsu immediately reared her head back and slammed her forehead into Luna’s jaw!
Slam!
Luna saw stars on the edge of her vision, and she backtracked multiple times while trying her best to stay on her feet! The blow was devastating, but Luna could not feel anything broken, and she thanked her god for the small mercies as she shook her head to gain back her senses and raised her hands into a proper fighting stance.
