[I will see you now.]
That was what the mysterious young man who called himself the Lord of Dreams said.
Although Scáthach was sowhat skeptical that soone else could enter the Land of Shadows without her permission.
However, while she was thinking, she sensed the presence of soone other than her in her castle! Her gaze imdiately fell on a white-haired young man with red eyes like hers who was suddenly standing in the center of the throne room.
He was wearing a simple white shirt and black sweatpants. However, Scáthach did not dare to underestimate him and looked at him curiously.
Especially his face, the young man in front of him was the most handso man she had ever seen in her mory.
Scáthach was not a face controller of course. However, the reason she was looking at him with a surprised expression at the mont was because it was in her eyes that could gauge a person’s potential and their future— for example the last ti her favorite disciple.
With the skills of Wisdom of Dún Scáith and Clairvoyance, she could not see through the young man in front of her.
She only saw infinite darkness as if there was a barrier blocking her vision.
"Hello, you must be Scáthach. You are as beautiful as I thought. I am the Lord of Dreams, but I also have another na that I often use, Eiji Seiya. You can call Eiji."
"Are you satisfied trying to peek inside ? Unfortunately the Wisdom of Dún Scáith and Clairvoyance skills will be useless on ."
Eiji casually said while stuffing his hands into his pants pockets.
To be fair, since Scáthach was looking at his body, he also did the sa to her body.
[Long purple hair, red eyes, athletic hips, large breasts and long legs... Her figure was clad in a tight black bodysuit. Tsk, tsk, the famous Queen of the Shadow Lands of the Ulster Cycle in Celtic Mythology— Scáthach truly lives up to her legend.]
[As an immortal who has lived for more than 2000 years, she still looks very beautiful and sexy!]
The heroines: "...."
Put aside Eiji’s voice that sounded excited.
This ti it was an old woman over 2000 years old?
Many of them who are supernatural beings aren’t even as old as she is right now.
And Eiji, you want to woo her, right?
You will definitely do it!
"Young man, you are interesting." Scáthach said calmly.
She stood up from her throne and slowly walked until she stopped a few ters in front of Eiji.
Although she had been told his na, she still called him youth.
Eiji did not care about that and teased her by saying, "Oh, is that a confession?"
Scáthach shook her head. "Of course not. It’s just that, I can’t see right through you like I usually do with others. It’s the first ti sothing like that has happened."
"That’s why I said you were interesting, young man."
Eiji made a disappointed expression, "So I was rejected? What a pity. I guess I still have to work harder."
Scáthach’s lips twitched.
She was now beginning to doubt Eiji’s intentions to see her.
"I can’t see right through you but young man, I now know you are a person who has no sha."
[She guessed it right, host.]
’That’s not true, Miss System. How can one have no sha? I have a bit of it too.’
[Really?]
’Yes.’
[....]
Miss System doubted what her host was saying.
Eiji pretended to cough and said, "Scáthach, stop teasing . I ca here to finalize the deal between us."
Scáthach blinked her eyes.
Who was teasing you?
You’re the one who teased in the first place.
Eiji ignored Scáthach’s flat stare. In the end, regardless of this conversation, she would still be his woman.
Having used Rasiel since coming to the Land of Shadows, he read her mind and knew she still had not realized she had been deceived.
I an Scáthach was less than vigilant and missed a loophole in their deal.
I didn’t deceive him at all.
"Are you ready?" Eiji asked while taking out Judecca from his inventory.
In this battle, he decided to beco a magical swordsman.
"I’ve been waiting for a long ti for soone who can kill . So you will do it yourself, young man?"
Scáthach also took out her weapons, two blood-red spears that emitted a magical aura.
It was her special weapon, the Gáe Bolg Alternative whose quality was no less than Artoria’s Excalibur.
In the original work, Eiji rembered Scáthach’s original Gáe Bolg had been given to her favorite disciple... He did not rember what the man’s na was, but he often appeared as a Lancer in the Holy Grail War.
However, he knew the level of the Gáe Bolg Alternative was more than the original version’s height. Of course, in front of him, it was still a toy.
His Judecca which was a Demon Lord Weapon was also no less than Gáe Bolg Alternative!
"Yes, do you think I will order my subordinates to kill you? That’s possible, but I want to kill you with my own hands."
"Hoh, I hope you don’t disappoint , young man."
Scáthach had already activated her magic circuits and was about to move at high speed, but she saw Eiji extend one of his hands forward.
"Wait a mont."
"...?"
Eiji actually did not need any buffs or preparations to defeat Scáthach.
However, he still wanted to perform a ritual before fighting like the mages in Trinity Seven just because it looked cool.
"Judecca, activate the Fides the."
It was one of Akio’s thes that could increase her physical strength several tis over.
In Eiji’s case, he used it on his sword.
[Connecting to the Sugar Archive, the Fides the has been activated, master.]
Judecca’s voice was heard from inside the sword. Unidentified letters appeared on the surface of the blade and a green colored aura surrounded it.
However, what was interesting to Scáthach was the fact that Eiji’s sword could speak like a human.
She looked at Eiji and his sword with an interested gaze. Right now, she could feel a very strong oppression from him. Instead of fear, she was excited.
"Now, I’m ready."
When Eiji said that, the floor beneath Scáthach’s feet cracked like a spider’s web and her figure looked like a purple shadow moving very fast.
From the third point of view, she suddenly appeared in front of Eiji and swung her two spearheads at him.
*Clang!*
However, Eiji parried the attack easily with Judecca. With a bit of physical strength and the buff from the Fides the, he directly pushed back Scáthach as if slashing at him.
"...!"
Scáthach was even too late to react, her body was thrown back. She was like a cannonball that crashed into several castle walls.
If she hadn’t used her two spears to apply the brakes, she would have continued to be thrown outside the castle.
"Good strength, young man."
Scáthach said as she wiped the blood coming out of her mouth.
Her two internal organs were slightly injured just from parrying Eiji’s counterattack. Her blood boiling, a smile similar to that of a battle maniac appeared on her beautiful face.
"Are you excited just because of that, Scáthach?"
Eiji walked leisurely in the castle hallway.
"Yes, it’s been a long ti since I was last injured. I’ll start getting serious now."
Scáthach narrowed her eyes, she moved again and this ti— she used more physical strength to confront Eiji.
The sound of tal colliding and sparks filled the castle hallway.
In the process, Scáthach even used her Primordial Runes to unleash fire and ice magic.
Several pillars of fire and ice spikes that pierced the sky were created.
*Boom! Boom! Boom!*
Explosion after explosion that was enough to kill an ultimate class creature occurred. However, Eiji was not injured in the slightest. He was even able to negate each of Scáthach’s magic attacks with just a slash that released anti-magic.
The castle was now about to collapse.
The two people were now standing under a cloudy sky.
"Sword skills, strength, defense, speed and a weapon that negates my magic attacks..."
Scáthach panted slightly and said, "You surpassed all my disciples and even , Eiji."
"Being praised by the Queen of the Land of Shadows, I feel honored." Eiji said with an indifferent expression.
In his heart, he laughed as he put aside his physical strength and magic. His sword skills were at a higher level than Scáthach’s spear skills because he had the blessing of the God of War.
If he wanted, he could end this fight in an instant.
But to leave a good impression on Scáthach, he had to dance with her on the battlefield and make her admit he was better than all her disciples and opponents so far.
Scáthach did not know what Eiji was thinking, but she snorted.
Was it just her or did Eiji seem to be holding back a lot and just playing around with her?
It made her a little annoyed.
"Instead of continuing to exchange swords and spears, let’s decide who the winner is in one strike with killing intent."
"Are you sure?"
"I’ve been waiting for this mont for a long ti."
Scáthach really wanted to die at soone’s hands.
Eiji sighed and released his Reiatsu filled with killing intent. Instantly, his body was enveloped in Ichigo-like crimson aura and the entire gravity in the Land of Shadows beca twenty tis heavier.
The screams of countless ghosts could be heard at that mont.
They died under the pressure as heavy as the mountain that fell on them.
Scáthach who had already taken a stance to unleash her ultimate move was dumbfounded.
She gritted her teeth and tried to resist the pressure above her head. She looked at the young man in front of her in horror because was this the true power of the Lord of Dreams?
This power made her soul tremble.
What she didn’t know, Eiji didn’t even use the Lord of Dreams’ power, he only released his Reiatsu as White Ichigo this ti and even then it was less than 50%.
"Stab and pierce!"
"Alternative Gáe Bolg!!"
When the true na of the weapon was ntioned, Scáthach unleashed all her magic power, the two spears in her hands turned into one and she threw it towards Eiji.
The spear flew at a speed that exceeded sound and shone brightly with a blood-red light.
In the face of that spear’s power, even Artoria had to release the full force of her Excalibur in panic.
But Eiji?
In his eyes, the Alternative Gáe Bolg flying towards him was moving slowly.
"Surtr Ragnarok."
Positioning Judecca forward, he released a wave of black and red anti-magic and reiatsu from the tip in a straight line.
When the attack collided with Alternative Gáe Bolg—
*BOOMMMM!!!*
A red explosion with black gradations engulfed the entire area including the hill where the castle was located.
The terrifying energy fluctuations spread and made the entire Land of Shadows shake violently.
However, Scáthach who was engulfed in the explosion smiled and closed her eyes as if ready to fall asleep forever.
’Thank you Eiji, from now on the Land of Shadows is yours.’
’If there is anything left of , you can also have it for yourself.’
’My disciples... I am finally dead.’
That was what Scáthach thought before she died.
She truly felt what death was like after being tornted by the curse called immortality.
But a mont later, Scáthach looked at Eiji who was sitting in front of her and the Japanese-style living room-like place around her in confusion.
She even saw a beautiful blonde woman with green eyes dressed like a bodyguard— Artoria standing behind Eiji and making noise in his ear.
"Eiji, she doesn’t seem happy."
"I know that, Artoria. I know."
[After all, I had revived her after she had been dead for less than 10 minutes. In the process, I have also inserted the queen’s card into her so that she becos my servant from now on.]
[Technically, I actually fulfilled the agreent between us and didn’t deceive Scáthach at all.]
[I killed her but I didn’t ntion that I could bring her back to life.]
[Hehe, I’m a genius!]
The heroines felt sorry for the woman nad Scáthach.
She had obviously been deceived by Eiji.
"Eiji, you... you deceived ?"
Scáthach’s cold voice trembled slightly. Right now, she could hear Eiji’s inner voice and that was why her beautiful face looked grim.
She clenched her fist and was eager to attack the young man in front with her spear.
However, she found herself unable to do what she was thinking. There was a command in her mind that forbade her from hurting Eiji.
What’s going on?!
Eiji drank the tea Nyx made calmly before saying, "I did not deceive you, Scáthach. You died as per our agreent and I brought you back to life as the spoils of the previous battle."
"You must have felt it, right? From now on I am your king and you are my queen."
[You are also my servant and my woman.]
Aren’t you too greedy?
Still, Scáthach massaged her forehead as she could not argue with the logic in Eiji’s words.
Even so, she felt deceived!
If before the fight, she knew that young man could revive the dead, she would have taken precautions such as forbidding him to revive her.
This was due to her lack of vigilance in detecting a loophole in the deal.
Scáthach smiled bitterly.
Surprisingly, she did not hate Eiji and only felt annoyed at him.
"I feel it and I also seem to be getting stronger. But Eiji, can I refuse?"
"No."
Scáthach bowed her head, she looked pathetic.
Eiji certainly did not want his woman to be sad, so he comforted her.
"From now on you are forbidden to seek death. Take a look around, you will now no longer be confined within the Land of Shadows, you are free."
"As my Queen, you are also my family mber and just like my other won, I will not treat you badly."
He said that while using Empathic Manipulation and increasing Scáthach’s will to live.
Scáthach felt it and was slightly moved by what Eiji said. Maybe it wasn’t bad to start a family with him?
She could not rember how long she had stayed inside the Land of Shadows and could not see the outside world. That was the price paid after becoming an immortal.
But when she was still human, she wasn’t even interested in starting a family and only thought of ruling the people as Queen.
Actually, it was also because she didn’t et a man who was worthy or at least capable of defeating her.
And Eiji was definitely stronger than her, he was able to kill her and his appearance was even more handso.
He was qualified to be her husband. Although from what Eiji said earlier, he seed to have a harem.
But that was not a problem for Scáthach. According to her, it was natural for a strong man to have many won.
"I’ll give it a try."
Hearing this, Eiji was happy. One of his abilities, Empathic Manipulation really ca in handy.
"That’s good, by the way is the woman behind you also your woman?"
Scáthach looked at Artoria curiously.
"Oh, she is..."
Eiji smiled mischievously, he wanted to refer to Artoria as his woman.
But the woman in question introduced herself first.
"My na is Artoria Pendragon, I am only Eiji’s servant for now."
Artoria knew Eiji thought of her as his woman and she didn’t mind. It was just that they hadn’t talked about it. Or rather, she hadn’t confessed yet.
She still needed a little ti.
"For now? So it’s only a matter of ti before you beco his woman."
Scáthach looked right through Artoria.
Artoria was a little embarrassed and wanted to argue. But she chose not to say anything in this situation.
Eiji took another sip of his tea.
[This way, I have two beautiful servants of Fate under my command. I wonder how Scáthach’s favorite disciple would react if he knew his master had found a husband?]
[That would be interesting.]
The heroines were not surprised.
Eiji must have had evil intentions and wanted to give soone the green hat again.
...
anwhile.
Gen Tachibana ca ho from his office and the first thing he did was see his daughter.
"Marika, do you know when Eiji is coming?"
"Eh, dad... I don’t know."
Marika replied while lying down and holding her cell phone on the sofa.
She glanced at her father innocently.
"Are you really his friend?" Gen asked because after he looked up Eiji’s information and asked his daughter what she thought of him.
The girl said she knew him and talked about him with more passion.
As a father, he thought his daughter already disliked a boy from the Shuei Clan (Raku), and liked another boy (Eiji).
That added to the reason for him to talk to that boy.
So he asked Marika for help in arranging a eting for them.
"O-Of course, dad! I’m at least friends with Eiji!"
What Marika said was true.
She and Eiji were friends, right?
To be honest, she didn’t know what her father wanted to talk to him about. But whatever it was, she couldn’t wait to welco Eiji into her ho.
*Ding Dong~!*
Before Gen said anything to his daughter.
"I’m coming!"
Marika jumped up from the sofa and walked out of her apartnt room, she ran down the hallway and down from the top floor to the bottom floor of the apartnt.
There, she opened the door and her eyes lit up when she saw the boy standing with a basket of fruit in front of her.
"Eiji-sama, is that you? Welco to my humble ho!"
She smiled flirtatiously and joked about the size of her house
After arranging a bedroom for Scáthach and introducing her to everyone living in his house, Eiji drove his car to buy fruits before visiting Marika’s place.
Chitoge’s birthday started tonight. So before that, he would cut the thread between Marika and the protagonist Raku first.
Didn’t what he was doing make sense? Of course it does.
[Host, you worked hard.]
’That’s why you should give 10 rewards after all this is done, my dear Miss System.’
[Host, that amount is too much. You’ll make fall into poverty.]
’If you fall into poverty, it’s fine. I’ll support you then. After all, you are one of my won.’
[....]
Miss System fell silent.
Eiji pushed the basket of fruits in his hand at Marika.
"This is for you and father-in-law— cough! I an your father, Marika. I heard your father wanted to see , I feel bad if I co without anything."
If the other won in his harem saw this scene, they would definitely think he was very skillful.
