"This is already too much for you?" Raising her head, Her Highness the Princess in her arms already had swirling eyes, looking even more enticing.
Her eyes darted around, and Asagami Fujino stuck out her tongue to lick Her Highness the Princess's delicate cheek.
"Ah!" Her Highness the Princess let out a cute cry, her body going limp as she fell.
"Truly adorable." Asagami Fujino reached out to support the falling Her Highness the Princess, a different look flashing in her eyes as she saw the marks she left on her face.
"No, no, not yet." Shaking her head to try and calm herself, Asagami Fujino told herself it wasn't time yet and that she should take it slow.
Her smile widened. Asagami Fujino decided to have some fun with this cute Her Highness the Princess; good things should be savored slowly.
Effortlessly creating a lounge chair, she picked up the unconscious Her Highness the Princess. Her soft body was something Asagami Fujino couldn't bear to let go of, but after holding her for a while, she still placed her on the chair.
Returning to the magic circle, Asagami Fujino hadn't forgotten what she originally intended to do: summon the Queen of the Land of Shadows, Scáthach.
This time was different from before. Asagami Fujino clearly knew in her heart that she wanted to summon Scáthach. Skipping the incantation, the magic circle lit up once more.
"Are you my Master?" As the light faded, Scáthach, clad in a revealing bodysuit, appeared before Asagami Fujino, just as she remembered.
"Let's fight." Asagami Fujino showed an excited smile. Before Scáthach could react, the two vanished, appearing in another space.
"Bounded Field? No! This is practically creating a world!" Scáthach looked around in surprise. All around her was void; she was suspended in the air. Everything here was like the beginning of the world, nothing yet constructed.
"This is a small world I created. If we fight here, those two Little Loli won't nag us." Asagami Fujino's eyes gleamed with fighting spirit. Although she possessed invincible strength, it didn't mean she had no opponents. This made Asagami Fujino a bit bored. Even though Scáthach, in Asagami Fujino's eyes, was still a weakling, and Asagami Fujino had to suppress her power to Scáthach's level, she couldn't help it; her hands were itching for a fight.
"Interesting Master." Scáthach's red eyes also glowed with excitement. She couldn't see through her at all; the wisdom of the Demon Realm couldn't perceive anything about Asagami Fujino, who also possessed the terrifying ability to create a world. This was truly someone who could grant her death.
"Come on, Master!" Like a cannonball, Scáthach, wielding her crimson Demonic Spear, charged towards Asagami Fujino.
Asagami Fujino still wore a smile. A Demonic Spear identical to Scáthach's appeared in her hand, and she instantly vanished from her spot.
"Crack." Their figures collided, and the surrounding space directly shattered. The world, not yet fully constructed, was undoubtedly fragile.
"Master is truly amazing!" Scáthach praised, her eyes full of surprise. The Master before her completely surpassed her in spear mastery.
"Continue. The queen of the Land of Shadows shouldn't only have this much skill." It wasn't enough, even with her strength suppressed. Asagami Fujino's martial arts far exceeded Scáthach's. If it weren't to prevent the battle from ending so early, that strike just now with her Demonic Spear could have directly pierced Scáthach's heart.
Half a minute later, Scáthach, her chest pierced by a Demonic Spear, floated in the air.
"Sigh." Asagami Fujino sighed softly. She had just started to get into the fight and accidentally used a little too much power, and unexpectedly, Scáthach was pierced by her Demonic Spear.
"Sigh." She sighed again. Asagami Fujino didn't know why, but looking at the lifeless Scáthach, Asagami Fujino began to revive Scáthach. After all, Scáthach was someone she liked. Although she accidentally killed her once, it could be considered fulfilling Scáthach's long-held wish, couldn't it?
After reviving Scáthach using her authority, Asagami Fujino suddenly realized something: the Demonic Spear was still in Scáthach's chest.
"Sorry, I'll be gentler with you next time." She said helplessly, looking at Scáthach, who was about to open her eyes, and gritted her teeth, pulling out the Demonic Spear.
At this moment, Asagami Fujino suddenly realized another problem: she could have just made the Demonic Spear disappear!
Asagami Fujino silently looked at the dripping Demonic Spear and Scáthach, who had 'died' again, and showed a carefree smile.
"I'm sorry! Gomenasai!"
(I can never summon Scáthach, so I'm bullying her in the book. Don't mind it.)
The highest-ranking Human (Doll) Master. Although her identity is that of a Magus, she possesses strength close to that of a Magus. Her personality is quite strange; she uses her glasses as a switch for personality conversion. When wearing glasses, her tone is gentle, but when she takes them off, her tone becomes cold. She bought a dilapidated, unfinished commercial building and opened her current workshop, Garages of Emptiness. She is Mikiya's boss and Kiritouka's Teacher. She once attended the Catholic aristocratic girls' school, Reien.
She possesses Magic Circuits that, despite being average in quantity, are overwhelmingly precise, innate Mystic Eyes, keen five senses that perceive the minute details of the world, and the intellect to properly handle matters without deliberately weakening her own uniqueness. She is an undeniable collection of talents. She did not need to interact with modern society at close Range like other Magi; she was purely raised as an egg of a Magus.
Her pure talent as a Magus also attracted the attention of the Association, but what drew their notice was not so much her own talent as it was her status as the successor to a Magus. At only ten years old, countless Magi from prestigious families came to visit; and Touko, who accepted all of this as a matter of course, made people increasingly anticipate her magnificent appearance when she truly became a Magus in the future.
Born into the Aozaki family, a prestigious clan with Japan's foremost spiritual land. Originally destined to be the successor to the Aozaki family's Magic, she received strict training from her Grandfather from a young age and her eyesight deteriorated from excessively trying to meet his expectations. She harbored complex feelings towards her younger sister, who lived an ordinary life. However, at the age of 18, her Grandfather suddenly decided to change the successor to her younger sister, Aoko, and so she killed her Grandfather, who was also her Teacher (actually, it was the priest of the Wada Church, Fumizuka Eiri, who killed him, as detailed in Touko's perspective in "mahoutsukai no yoru"), severing ties with her sister and the entire Aozaki family. Afterwards, through a Magus she met during her training, she entered the Mages Association in London. Her artificial dual personality also formed during this period.
Although she incurred massive debts as a result, she paid them off within two years. A few years later, she left the Association due to a Sealing Designation, changed her name, and returned to Japan. The Sealing Designation from the Mages Association was due to her ability to create dolls identical to herself, always keeping one dormant self in reserve. If the living Touko died, her memories would transfer to the standby body, and she would awaken. The awakened Touko would then create another dormant body. Because the created bodies are indistinguishable from the original, even Touko doesn't know which is the original body. She once used Schrödinger's Cat as an analogy to explain that every one of her selves is the true self.
Her classmate, Alba, described Touko in the novel as follows:
Someone whose inheritance was stolen by her own sister, and who entered the church for revenge, is not suited for pure colors. Ironically, Aozaki received the position of 'Red,' contrary to her surname. It's a vulgar color, like her name. A color befitting the Orange Magus! It's a flawed red that can't quite become a primary red. Haha, isn't that a fitting title for that woman!
Privately, she has a hobby of spending a lot of money to collect various Magic-related items under her younger sister Aoko's name. Furthermore, due to a Curse cast by Aoko and her Teacher Kuonji Alice (see mahoutsukai no yoru), Touko can never return to her birthplace, Misaki City, unless the Curse is broken. (In the mahoutsukai no yoru extra chapter, Touko escaped the Curse by creating a new body.)
Regarding Mikiya and Shiki's relationship, she always offered minimal assistance to the two as someone with experience. After the Shirazumi Rio incident ended, Touko disappeared immediately, because when Kurogiri went to find Shiki at the end, she had already sensed that whether alive or dead, those two would be together.
In Tsukihime, the Mystic Eye Killer glasses Aoko gave Shiki were taken from Touko.
In Kara no Kyoukai, she killed Cornelius Alba for directly calling her by her alias,'Scarred Red,' and said, "This is a rule I set long ago: anyone who calls me'Scarred Red' must die."
Like her sister, she's someone who can't stay in one place for long.
Like her sister, she's someone who can't stay in one place for long.
Touko and Aoko
To be raised as a successor to a Magus, Touko lived separately from her sister (Aoko lived at their parents' home, Touko in her Grandfather's workshop deep in the mountains). Therefore, Touko had never been to school even at eighteen. Although she often met and spoke with her sister Aoko, Touko was a genius girl who didn't even know the basic world. She didn't have the feeling of being a recluse; she had an excessive talent for Magic. She was also a calm and good Older Sister. She would seriously give Aoko advice and comfort her after hearing about Aoko's strange failures. She had a complex sisterly love for Aoko, who lived as an ordinary person. One could say they were a warm pair of sisters.
To inherit the Aozaki Magic, Touko's education and training leaned towards grand Magic activation. However, she herself preferred more delicate things, not to move the world, but to remake what was left of it. Yet, it seemed she both endured special expectations and faced her Grandfather, who was called a monster, with both fear and respect.
After turning fifteen, in order to repay her Grandfather's expectations, Touko's eyesight began to decline. Although it was a rare Mystic Eye, it was still insignificant compared to Magic. Despite this, the decline in her eyesight seemed to be kept a secret.
Aoko was born into the world of magecraft, possessing Magic Circuits but having mediocre abilities. She didn't need to be involved with magecraft and grew up cherished by her gentle parents. LCKY, I can push all my troubles onto my Older Sister now.
Aoko, who was enjoying such an ordinary daily life, was suddenly informed on her sixteenth birthday: "Yes, Aoko is indeed the heir of the Aozaki family."
Aoko was thus forcibly brought into the world of mages, working and training as an apprentice mage at the Kuenji Family residence. Afterward, Touko severed ties with the Aozaki family after various incidents, killed her Grandfather, and was jointly cursed by Aoko and Alice, preventing her return to her hometown unless the Curse was broken.
After leaving the Aozaki family, Touko joined the London Mages Association. She met Cornelius Alba and Araya Souren. Although Touko had to pay back many debts she incurred outside, she cleared them all within two years.
In the novel The Clock Tower of 2015, her relationship with Aoko Aozaki improved to the extent that they could eat together. Even though it was already 2015, she still looked younger than 25. If you think about it, by 2015, Touko should be in her 40s, almost 50. Tsk tsk, the Grand Puppeteer is truly terrifying.
Aoko Aozaki is a character who appears in games such as *Tsukihime and MELTY BLOOD*, and is one of the Heroines of *mahoutsukai no yoru*.
She is one of the five remaining Magi in the world, the younger sister of Aozaki Touko, the heir of the Aozaki family, and the user of the Fifth Magic.
The Mages Association designated her as MISSBLE, codenamed "Blue," one of the Three Primary Colors. She is currently on a National Tour. She has a carefree personality, acts spontaneously, and loves freedom.
She can use Magical Energy most efficiently. Her Magecraft attribute is Magical Energy Release, which can destroy objects. Aoko Aozaki excels at High-Speed Incantation to launch Offensive Magecraft, possessing enormous talent in destruction. She has an interest in Close Combat.
She likes Rock Music, has a Guitar in her room, and the reason her room is relatively small is that she doesn't want to spend too much time cleaning it. She attends Misaki Private High School.
Until she graduated from junior high, she was unrelated to Magic, but because her Grandfather suddenly decided to let Aoko inherit the family business, Aoko quietly became an Apprentice Magus.
Tohno Akiha, Sōjū Kazahana, and Rin Tohsaka are all based on Aoko Aozaki.
A pure Witch born in England, Aoko's roommate, and the owner of the Kuenji Residence. The opening line of the game *mahoutsukai no yoru*, "Two Witches live in the mansion on the hill," refers to the Kuenji Family's property.
She is a second-year student at Reien Girls' Academy, an alumna of Aozaki Touko, the Eternal Princess, a girl forgotten by time, who stubbornly and rigidly adheres to her pride in solitude.
As a Witch, she specializes in Fairy Tale Themed Curses, Familiar Command, and Protection Spells. She possesses three extremely precious Demon Lord-level Items left by the previous Witch (her mother) (Bridge Giant, Flat Snark, Scratch Dmpty), and a familiar that is a blue Robin (Robin). She is especially skilled in Curses based on Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes.
She is also Aoko Aozaki's Magecraft Teacher. Her knowledge of magecraft is complete, and her Magic Circuits are of a Special Nature, astonishing in number, with Magic Circuits even engraved on her internal organs. The reason for this is that her species is more accurately Witch than human.
She values tradition, keeps promises, and lives purely as a Mage while conducting research.
She possesses a beauty that seems otherworldly, a coldness unlike a young girl, yet also some of the warmth that girls possess. She remains curious about things that interest her, but is also strictly demanding, such as not allowing Shizuki Soujurou to touch her teacup, and she has an unusual pursuit of romance.
A girl who looks somewhat special, but is actually not that way at all.
She loves collecting antiques, is very dedicated to her parents' relics, highly values the house she lives in, and can sleep peacefully on the floor of the house.
Family Background
The Kuenji Family she belongs to is not a Mage Family, but because her mother was a Witch, Alice possesses the qualifications of a Witch.
Her mother was a Witch passed down through generations, living in England.
Her father was the Eldest Son of the Kuenji Family. He met Alice's mother while studying abroad. Due to Alice's mother's identity as a Witch, their marriage was destined to end in tragedy, but Alice's father still married her and brought her back to live in Japan.
Alice's mother died after giving birth to Alice, having fulfilled her duty of passing down the Witch lineage, and Alice's father passed away several years after raising Alice.
With Aoko
Her cohabitation with Aoko is not due to friendship, but for the sake of the Magecraft World's interests, which Mages collectively protect. However, Aoko is also her only friend.
She met Aoko's Older Sister, Touko, even earlier, and did not wish to intervene in the conflict between the sisters. However, due to her position of guarding the Energy River of Misaki Town, she still chose to fight Touko, who was the intruder.
At the end of the main story of *mahoutsukai no yoru*, the Future Aoko used a Curse she learned from Alice's future teachings—that anyone stepping into Misaki Town would turn into a Madagascar Rainbow Frog—preventing Touko from returning to her birthplace, Misaki City, for ten years.
Black Lancer
The legendary King Arthur, the Knight King, herself.
In reality, she is an endearing Maiden Knight who, just like in the legends, possesses both purity and nobility.
Although widely known as the Holy Sword User, the Holy Lance she possesses is also extremely powerful, allowing her to manifest as a Lancer.
Furthermore, she may have manifested due to being afflicted by the Holy Grail's Curse. She is the ruthless alternate side of the Knight King when acting as a Lance User.
Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova
The Last Imperial Princess of the Romanov Dynasty of Tsarist Russia, born in 1901, the daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, the last Tsar of the Romanov Dynasty, and his wife Alexandra Feodorovna. She had three Older Sisters and one Younger Brother.
In 1918, she and her family were executed in Yekaterinburg. However, later generations believed for various reasons that the Tsar's Third Daughter Maria or fourth daughter Anastasia had not died, with the rumors of Anastasia's survival being the most numerous. By 2007, the remains of the entire Tsar's family had been found, confirming they all died during the execution.
Over the nearly 90 years since, people claiming to be the Grand Duchess and people claiming to have seen the Grand Duchess have constantly appeared, leading to works based on the Grand Duchess or her imposters.
This work adopts the version where the Imperial Princess died in 1918, but the Tsar belongs to a Mage lineage.

Scáthach
Scáthach, a Servant who appears in the Android/iOS game *Fate/Grand Order* released by TYPE-MOON.
"If one strike of the spear reaches the ultimate state, slaying a god is merely a matter of flipping one's hand."
A woman who wields a Demonic Spear and possesses a Kingly Demeanor.
She is also a talented Teacher, training many disciples into Warriors or Mages.
Perhaps as punishment for stepping into the Divine Realm in a human body, she has been afflicted by countless Curses.
"Where is the person who can kill me?".
Living in the Land of Shadows, one of the Celtic wonderlands, she is considered the Queen of the Netherworld who accepts the dead and wandering spirits. Possessing skills that step into the domain of the gods and ancient Rune magic, she has slain countless wraiths, humans, and deities. Perhaps as punishment for stepping into the divine realm as a mortal, she was struck by a curse that has haunted her for a lifetime.
Known as a God-Slayer of the Divine Spirit rank, she has taught numerous warriors and magi, the most famous of whom is Cú Chulainn.
Legend
A warrior from the Celtic Ulster legends, and also a queen.
The Queen and Guardian of the Land of Shadows, the Lord of the Foreign Realm and Haunted Ground, she is a genius in spear techniques and Rune magic.
She possesses the immense power to seal and rule over the gates of the Land of Shadows, which is filled with countless spirits.
Legend has it that the Ulster hero Cú Chulainn took her as his master and received her teachings in his youth. Scáthach imparted her skills to him without reservation and even handed over her favorite magic spear to her disciple. Cú Chulainn's son, Connla, also received her guidance.
Proud and never catering to anyone, she belongs to the innate ruling class.
Possessing a kingly disposition, she understands that she must reign over all things as a queen who grants happiness to her people.
Gifted with talent, she is the one who best understands that she is different from ordinary people. Just as she understands herself, she possesses the quality and temperament to see through others, particularly an accurate eye for distinguishing whether the other party is ordinary or not. In other words, Cú Chulainn was a rare individual who possessed the genius worthy of her teaching.
Having lived through vast ages, Scáthach, who has transformed into a demigod, does not face death like a human—whether it be a beautiful death or an ugly one. She can only exist here until the world and its Reverse Side vanish together.
If the Holy Grail is truly an omnipotent existence, then summon someone capable of killing me.
If possible, I hope that person is the one wielding the magic spear I bestowed—
Scáthach Trial Quest
Along with Guda and Mash, she cleans up remains in the dream of Fuyuki, summoning Fergus and Diarmuid from Celtic mythology as allies. They successively defeat various enemies the protagonist's group has encountered, including skeletons, dragonkin, Demon Pillars, and even the Moon Goddess.
Fifth Singularity: North American Myth War - E Pluribus Unum
Originally a member of the Celtic army, she later left them to join the protagonist's side. After a duel with her corrupted disciple, Cú Chulainn Alter, she was heavily injured and prepared to activate her second Noble Phantasm. Because Cú Chulainn Alter knew his teacher's Noble Phantasm beforehand, he interrupted her in time and teleported her off the battlefield. She appeared again at the end of the story to fulfill her previous promise to Li Shuwen and engaged him in battle.
Interlude: Kill Me If You Can
At a certain point, Scáthach takes the protagonist, Mash, and Cú Chulainn into the wild. She expresses her hope to use the opportunity of her summoning during the Incineration of Humanity to have Cú Chulainn kill her. However, because her fate of death cannot be found here, Gae Bolg flies far away. Scáthach scolds Cú Chulainn for becoming weak, while Cú Chulainn remarks that his power seems to have halved. Thus, Scáthach begins to retrain Cú Chulainn. After hunting a large number of Wyverns and Chimeras, she deems his strength restored and duels him again. However, in the end, when Cú Chulainn uses Gae Bolg, Scáthach uses Gae Bolg Alternative, causing both spears to be knocked away together. Cú Chulainn grumbles about whether his master has become stronger again, and Scáthach says it can't be helped; as someone who wants to challenge the strong whenever she sees them, she has unintentionally become even more powerful. Finally, Scáthach still expresses her anticipation for the moment she is killed.
Interlude: An Invitation to the Land of Shadows
In an attempt to experience death, she unintentionally pulls the protagonist, Mash, and Cú Chulainn into her memories. After fighting Cú Chulainn, she is persuaded by him and stops looking back at the past.
Final Singularity: Grand Temple of Time Solomon
Accepting the protagonist's summons, she joins various Servants appearing from the North American Singularity to stop the Demon Pillars at the Arsenal.
Under the influence of Karl der Große's 'Heavenly Voice Assimilation,' she becomes one of his subordinates.
Character Settings Edit
A rare Immortal-type Servant.
She is both a reliable master (transliterated from the Japanese'Shishou') and a queen, a beauty who somehow possesses the aura of a big sister next door.
A sage who has grasped the causes and effects of all things in the world, yet remains silent.
As for the reason for her silence, it is because she has already 'graduated' from this world.
Even in a world crisis, if she were to step in, it would be 'disrespectful to the people living in the current world,' depriving them of the opportunity to grow.
Therefore, Scáthach basically does not participate in battles and usually only provides advice—or so she says, but because of her innate fanaticism for combat, she often deceives herself with strange reasons to participate in local skirmishes and reveal her ultimate techniques.
After thus stealing the spotlight from other Servants, she returns to her room to reflect—this has become the standard process.
Big Sister Scáthach
Even in her current form, she possesses the performance of a Top Servant, but it seems she has a Spirit Origin one stage above this.
As a side note, regarding her name, there are legends that it originates from the Norse giantess and mountain goddess, Skaði.
Note: In Celtic mythological tradition, the Goddess of Shadows refers to Morrigan, the goddess of war and fertility, who also possesses prophetic abilities. The word Morrigan means 'Queen of Demons' or 'Phantom Queen,' or more elegantly translated, 'Goddess of Phantoms.' Only the Ulster tradition mentions the female warrior Scáthach of the Land of Shadows.
Because she is Cú Chulainn's master, her basic attire and style were already decided; because the order was to make her sexy, she ended up like this.
Although it was unintentional during the design, it was later discovered she shares the same color scheme as Bazett.
She simultaneously possesses the extremely high self-confidence and courage of a Transcendent, with a clear distinction between herself and the world (ordinary people). Her words and actions also make her a cold and complex character.
So at Bond Max, there will be a home clothes mode! (Just kidding.)
Class Skills
Magic Resistance: A
Invalidates magic of rank A and below; modern magi and magecraft cannot harm her at all.
Personal Skills
Wisdom of the Haunted Ground: A+
Abyssal wisdom obtained by transcending humanity, slaying deities, and placing oneself on the Reverse Side of the world.
Except for skills unique to certain heroes, she can display almost any skill with a proficiency of B to A rank.
Furthermore, limited to those she recognizes as heroes, she can also impart skills to others.
In battle, her most commonly used skill is predicting the situation through Clairvoyance.
In Ulster legends, she also frequently used this foresight to prophesy the future. Even the end of her beloved disciple Cú Chulainn was no exception.
Primordial Rune: —
She has mastered the Primordial Runes of Northern Europe. The Runes mentioned here are not the Runes used in modern magecraft, but Primordial Runes with the power of the Age of Gods, discovered in the world by the Great God of Northern Europe, Odin.
Having taught the eighteen Primordial Runes to Cú Chulainn, she is both a warrior and a powerful magus.
God-Slayer: B
The gatekeeper of the foreign realm and haunted ground, the Land of Shadows; a skill that manifests her way of life as one who slaughtered numerous deities.
Possesses special effectiveness against Divine Spirits, providing an attack modifier against Divine Spirits, wraiths, and Servants with the Divinity skill.
Bond Craft Essence
Facing the Haunted Ground
Do you want to know what kind of place the Land of Shadows is?
It is exactly as the name implies.
A haunted ground where shadows spread in all directions, a dark place where sunlight never reaches—it is the world of death.
Looking back, Cú Chulainn's arrival was truly ridiculous.
You see, isn't that fellow the Son of the Sun?
...Within the Land of Shadows, there are seven castle walls.
No, this is not a literal meaning.
It is like a symbol displaying the truths that you also know.
That is to say, 'the dead shall never return.' The residents of the Land of Shadows shall never cross the walls to appear upon the surface world.
It should have been so.
That is common sense.
Well then.
I look forward to the day you successfully save the world and coolly send me back to that country.
Noble Phantasm Edit
Gae Bolg Alternative
Rank: B (Upgrades to B+ after Noble Phantasm Quest)
Type: Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm
Range: 5~40
Maximum Targets: 50
Although similar in design, it is not the same spear as the one Cú Chulainn possesses; it is an older model of the same type of favorite spear she used long before Gae Bolg. Furthermore, this spear is not unique; there are several other identical spears.
Upon True Name Release, its performance is a supreme technique that combines Cú Chulainn's Noble Phantasms, the 'Barbed Spear that Pierces with Death' and the'Soaring Spear that Strikes with Death.' First, she uses a melee attack with the first magic spear to pin the enemy to space and rob them of their freedom, then she throws the second magic spear with all her might to end their life. Naturally, enemies on the trajectory of this thrown magic spear will also perish together.
Incantation: Pierce! Strike! Gae Bolg Alternative!
Gate of Skye
Rank: A+
Type: Anti-Army Noble Phantasm
Range: 2~50
Maximum Targets: 500
Temporarily summons a massive gate leading to the Land of Shadows, the haunted ground and foreign realm severed from the world.
All living beings within the range of effect will be sucked into the Land of Shadows, the domain she rules.
Failure in Mana and Luck checks results in being sucked into the gate and immediate death. Those not recognized by Scáthach cannot set foot in the Land of Shadows as living beings.
Even if the resistance is successful, they will still suffer massive damage as their mana is rapidly absorbed.
Related Characters Edit
Cú Chulainn
Her former beloved disciple. In mythology, it is a simple master-disciple relationship with no ambiguity.
From the bottom of her heart, she hopes to be killed and saved by him, but she also understands that this is impossible no matter how you look at it, so it is not a very serious hope.
Queen Medb
A girl who loves playing hopeless pranks. She loves men too much. However, Scáthach doesn't dislike such straightforward people.
Fergus mac Róich
He loves women too much. However, Scáthach doesn't dislike such straightforward people.
Chiron
They might get along well—though she thinks this, they have never actually met. Because their educational policies differ, it might turn into a fight to the death.
Character Supplement Edit
Numerous lives—
She truly robbed numerous lives in the past. Whether they were humans, wraiths, or gods.
She confronted countless existences of all kinds and then slaughtered them all.
Battle, battle, battle. Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill. This body, drenched in the blood of enemies, became eternal.
The Land of Shadows she ruled was eventually ejected to the Reverse Side of the world, and she herself became an existence little different from a Divine Spirit.
No longer aging.
Unable to die.
She turned into'something' that exists forever.
How much time has passed since she first took up the spear? She can no longer remember. No, this body that has always guarded the gate here has obtained the Wisdom of the Abyss; it is possible to measure time correctly.
She simply does not want to know through such a method.
It is not melancholy. Nor is it resignation.
(Is it regret?)
She doesn't know.
It might be so, but she cannot say for certain.
At the very least, an emotion she did not notice while slaughtering numerous monsters or teaching the Ulster warriors certainly exists in her heart now.
Ah, indeed, she truly taught many warriors in the past.
At the end of infinite time, where all things die and vanish completely, within the memories maintained by deliberate indifference, only one person, the figure of only one man, can still clearly emerge.
Crimson pupils—
When the brilliance in that man's eyes flashes through her mind, her heart inexplicably softens.
Even this body, which has become eternal and can no longer produce any change, can feel warmth.
Hoping to meet him again?
That kind of wish does not exist. I can assert that.
What is it then? If I had to say, it would be the desire to be—
killed by that man.
I wish to embrace death as a human.
Of course, this is only if "that man, who has already become a Heroic Spirit, that existence who has lost the luster of life, still possesses the ability to kill even me, who can kill gods."
