Along with Edward falling from the sky and crashing into the ground with debris flying everywhere, his crew also started surrounding us. From all sides. Thank god the defense squadron were able to push the crew outside of the outskirts or else this would've been real bad.

  But we weren't far from the outskirts we were still pretty close. Worse of all I haven't had anytime to practice.

  Damn it, I knew Edward would attack but I didn't think he would attack the outskirts first. I figured he would just attack from inwards and not face us head on, I mean he already had great position for this.

  While I was lost in thoughts I got sneak attacked by someone from behind. He swung his sword at me, but I was able to dodge in time, I didn't know what was this but, I was able to sense danger all this time and was able to react in time. I didn't have this power in my first life at all.

  I quickly condensed air in my fist and punched him away. A few more tried to sneak up on me, but I quickly used telekinesis and flung them away.

  "Well,well,well, if it isn't the little elf princess and also Thor's vessel." Edward started speaking

  Most of us stayed quiet until the captain spoke.

  "Alice, can you handle Edward? You just need to buy time." The captain spoke to Alice.

  "Umm, I'll try"

  "Alright, take him to a far away place from here."

  Just then Edward started to glow yellow and gold with the skin and fur of a lion appearing of his shoulder and he became physically bigger. His eyes started glowing a light red and claw like fingers started appearing on his hand. All of them shaped by a yellow aura.

  "First Labour, The Pride Of The Nemean Lion" A burst of wind bursted from the position of Edward.

  Alice also started glowing blue with sparks of lightning appearing around her.she gain some armour, a helmet all made of lightning. Then a hammer, a handheld sledgehammer with a large head started to materialise Infront of her.

  She rushed towards Edward at a lightning quick speed which even Edward couldn't react to. Her speed was surprising due to the size of the hammer. She hit Edward hard and sent Edward flying.

  Alice quickly disappeared, appearing once again on top of Edward and smashing him into the ground. But, Edward was unaffected, he lifted the hammer and threw alice away. Alice quickly regained her balance and headed towards Edward again.

  But, I noticed something wrong, Edward started glowing a tint of green and large antlers started materialising on his head. Shit, he had used his third labour.

  I quickly threw the sword and used telekinesis in the air and itself to make it go faster with less air resistance and also made it the size of a dagger.

  It had gotten there before Edward could do severe damage to Alice. I quickly increased the size of the dagger and grew it to a massive size and it had blocked Edward's attack.

  I quickly rushed their using the same technique I used to accelerate the dagger. Once I had gotten there at a impressive speed. I grabbed the handle and decreased the size back into a sword and stroke down at Edward.

  But Edward blocked it with no effort, just as I thought. But it gave an opening for Alice to attack. She decreased the size of the hammer for a quick strike and sent Edward into the ground. I quickly pierced into his heart.

  But it wasn't over, Edward started smiling and a purple energy bursted out that sent both of us flying. It was the "eight heads of the hydra" which gave him eight lives. And each time he gains power and a timer once the timer runs out he gains all the damage and pain he would've gotten.

  he rushed towards me but it was almost like he disappeared and appeared in front of me. And tried to punch me but I ducked and tried to stab him but he grabbed me blade and threw me away but I regained my balance.

  He rushed towards me once again but was intercepted by Alice. Alice smashed him but he backed away in time leaving her to smash into the ground.

  Just then, Edward took out the blade of extraction and swung down at Alice. But I once again threw my blade and intercepted his strike. Using telekinesis I flew over there and grabbed my blade.

  Edward was ready to welcome me with the strike of his sword but Alice was ready to block once again. I increased the length of the blade this time and tried to slash Edward's head off, but he ducked and punched Alice away but she blocked with her hammer and minimised the damage but she was still sent flying.

  He sent a barrage of fist at me, but I levitated upwards into the air. "Ha, nice one kid." Edward blurted out.

  He continued by manifesting a red like energy then shot it at me as a beam but using telekinesis I changed the course of the beam and curved it back at Edward. He quickly absorbed it with his blade before sending a large blade of energy at me followed by a few smaller blades of energy.

  While I was falling down I stretched the blades of energy like a spider web before shaping it into a sphere. Then I continued to coat my sword in that energy. Then I slashed downwards at Edward but he blocked the attack with a slash of his own sword.

  We clashed swords sending red energy everywhere and the flame waves from Edward's sword too. The ground beneath Edward started cracking and breaking.

  Alice appeared behind Edward to give a good hit to his back sending him flying.

  "Don't ya think a kid shouldn't be fighting someone like him." Alice said

  "well this 'kid' can keep up with you." I replied with a smirk.

  Then Edward appeared infront of Alice targeting her this time. Eight heads of a snake started materialising with purple energy and Edward moved his left hand to match the eight heads leaving only afterimages and biting Alice.

  After the last hit Alice was thrown into the wall, before he could do more, I slashed down at Edward's arm, but it was too tough to cut through. I tried to use telekinesis to help me cut through reducing air resistance and friction.

  Just then, I remembered a technique I used in my past life. Thinking of my telekinesis like hand gripping onto something other then being the actual item itself.

  I thought of this hand and pulled Edward's arm from both sides. It actually worked, Edward's arm came apart and was now severed.

  "Ho? You can do that?" Edward said without being surprised at all.

  I didn't answer and just stared at him ready to counter his next move. Instead of disappearing and appearing Infront of me, he just started walking, slowly it was almost scary because his next move seemed unpredictable.

  He quickly stretched out his arm in Alice's direction and shot a quick lightning shot. I was able to react in time and stop it.

  "You really won't let me kill her huh?"

  He rushed at me and tried to slash my head off. But I had enough. "Play time's over" I said with a serious tone. This entire time I had been limiting my use of telekinesis not using its full power.

  I pushed his blade away and next slammed him into the ground and kept him there. I had learned many things about my telekinesis and one of them was increasing the size and weight or mass of my target.

  I increased his weight and had him in the ground. But, he activated his sixth labour. And grew metal and iron wings and his skin grew metallic feathers and his hands became sharp with bronze, his severed arm had also been replaced with a bronze and iron one.

  He flew up and it almost seemed like he nullified the effects of the telekinesis. I tried to do it but, it was consumed too much aura if I used it again I would have almost no aura left to use.

  He rushed at me at a high speed. I flew away quickly into the sky to dodge him. I quickly put Alice at a farther safe distance. Before turning my attention back to Edward.

  He sent many metallic feathers at me, but I controlled and sent it back at him. He just took them and was unfazed. I knew I would have a disadvantage in the sky since it was his domain in the sixth labour.

  I flew down almost crashing into the ground. I was all alone left to face Edward now. Alice is unconscious and the others are busy with Edward's underlings.

  He rushed towards me from the sky and made a blade out of the metallic feathers and tried to slash at me once again I had ducked and stabbed him in the stomach. But, he had covered it with metal to protect it.

  Before I could react, he kicked me in the stomach sending me far away and crashing into a giant boulder. I coughed up blood and almost went unconscious, but I managed to stay conscious.

  Edward came up to me, walking slowly. He approached me and grabbed my hair and pulled me up.

  "Hahaha, did you really think a kid like you could beat me?" Edward said mockingly.

  I stayed quiet more like I couldn't gather the energy to speak. I felt pain throughout my entire body.

  No,no,no this cannot be the end, I just came back to the past just 2 days ago and I'm going to meet my end here?

  I noticed someone in a black hood nearby. They threw a rock at Edward, which distracted him. Enough for me to enlarge my blade and push him away.

  I quickly flew up with pain throbbing all over my body, I could barely stabilise myself. Edward's sixth labour had seem to run out and he started coughing up blood and some parts of his body just started to explode sending blood and flesh everywhere.

  This was the price he had to pay for using the sixth labour, intense pain in the insides and the amount of feathers lost equals to the amount of parts exploding.

  I took this as a chance and went to strike down at him. He was defenceless and I took advantage of it, I severed his head and then stabbed right through his heart.

  That was his second life we took, he probably had already lost 2 in the past so he only had 4 lives left. I was lost in thoughts before I realised him being resurrected would send a burst of energy.

  I was knocked back once again and landed on the ground. The pain increased and I could feel nothing but pain. Edward appeared Infront of me and reached his hand down at me.

  He grabbed my neck and ready to finish me. He swung his arm back and then at my face with such force that I would've probably died even if I was in great condition.

  When all of a sudden, time... Seemed to slow.
