One More Time: Rebirth 35 Sense of Justice

The calm looking Edge started shouting and what he said made sense. 'Was I really the one who was wrong?... No! Fighting those weaker than you is never right. The strong must always protect the weak. If they are evil then guide them to the proper path.' Yes, that is the correct path, the path we must all follow.

"No, I would not want that. But what you did was still wrong and also I believe that things wouldn't have escalated to what you have said if you did things properly. The only time the strong should fight is when they are to protect the weak."

'How is that I'm right!' I'm sure that right about now Edge must concede to me. Then I saw Edge's face trying to stay calm but had a face that looks incredibly irritated. I could feel a bit of bloodlust coming from him. Huh, why was he so pissed?

Edge's POV

Hearing what he said I finally understood, This senpai is one of those for justice people. I met many of them in my previous world. They were broken people, they had no sense of self. They moved for others and never for their own.

It doesn't matter who you are for their justice they will protect you but no matter your reason as long as you stray from the path. They either kill you or try to persuade you, that what you are doing is wrong and you as well should follow the supreme path of justice.

They live and die for their idiotic and distorted sense of justice. But looking at the senpai in front of me. I could see that he isn't really that deep in yet.

"Senpai you may do what you think is right, but do not force those ideals onto us. The justice you stand for and the justice we stand for are two different things. Also, one other thing senpai you should not label people as weak so quickly, just because of their ranks. Do not think that it is your duty to protect them they too must have their pride, and all your doing is crushing their pride as you protect them. You can protect whoever you want but first off why don't you protect yourself."

I don't know if he understood what I said, but I hope that this helps him not go too deep into that distorted sense of justice he has. Though all the justice people I met were nice, kind people. Their view of the world was too narrow.

They could only see things as black and white. Looking at the people and the world that way, won't help anyone.

Rain's POV:

I was stunned speechless, as the heavy aura that Edge emitted hit me. He then started talking to me, advising me. After saying what he wanted to say Edge and Tsukiyomi left.

I could not stop them, why? It was because Edge's face distorted into pain and sadness while he was talking to me. Every word he said echoed in my mind. He was only eleven but the words he said sounded like they had a deeper meaning.

Edge's POV:

I didn't notice back then but maybe at some point in my previous world, I wanted to be like senpai and moved with those kinds of ideals.

Yet somebody like me who lived for revenge could never be a hero of justice. I felt a sharp pain in my chest while thinking that. As I was lamenting my flaws, I felt something warm holding my hand.

I saw that Tsukiyomi was holding it. I looked at her, as she smiled kindly at me.

"It is alright Edge, whenever you feel like you will break I will always be there to fix you up. Those are the terms in our contract, but more than that I personally wish to help you. Kukuku, so do not worry, never despair Edge, I the eternal moon Tsukiyomi will always be by your side."

Tsukiyomi stated all that she said with such confidence. She really is like the moon guiding me through my very own darkness.

I smiled back at her "Thanks Tsukiyomi." We then went back to the dorm, thus ended our first day in school.
