Chapter 10

Moonlight Vow is the tenth chapter of the Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan Manga.

Summary
The commentator announces the match between Kirihara and Ikki is over, with Ikki being victorious over Kirihara. Ikki stumbles over and falls after the announcement, and a medical team is called putting him on a stretcher, as Stella rushes over to him.

Shizuku, who was still in the stands, decides to stay behind, as Stella goes with Ikki, out of respect for what Stella had done for Ikki, proclaiming her love for Ikki, in front of the masses. Nagi and Shizuku then decide to go somewhere far, to eat, since Ikki's victory celebration party would have to wait until he got better. Shizuku, while walking with Nagi, then asks if the people who doubt Ikki will ever accept Ikki's strength and Nagi was unsure if they actually would.

Four people are then seen, commenting on Ikki, who seems to no longer be the "Failure Knight" he once was. Nene joins in the conversation stating she wanted to pit Ikki against the student council president. The four people are then revealed to be part of the student council, Utakata Misogi, Renren Tomaru, Ikazuchi Saijou and Kanata Totokubara. Kanata, however, disregards Nene's notion believing that she and the student council president are leagues above the "Crimson Princess" and Ikki.

Ikki is then seen, at night, waking up in the infirmary, having his injuries already healed do to the capsule, and sees Stella sleeping by his bed side. Ikki accidentally wakes Stella up and gives her back her handkerchief, as Stella become frazzled by the action. Ikki then thanks Stella for her actions at the match, knowing that he would have loss if it wasn't for her. Ikki then admits his love for Stella, embarrassing Stella. Stella, however, then kisses Ikki on the cheek, accepting his feelings for her and returning them as well, and the two embrace each other. Ikki and Stella then make a promise to each other to fight against on another at the final battle of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival.
