Capítulo 62: Chapter 62: Goodbye Land of Shadows
(Scáthach's POV)
Humans always yearn to have a long life. Wish to live in this world that has so much to offer. Magic, fight, war, love, and much more according to one's discretion.
However, you simply forgot that why humans were born with limited life. Death is what gives you a purpose in life, a limited time where one should sort what is most important and get such.
Humans may appear weak in other's eyes but they have the highest intelligence compared to all other races. Their craftiness may appear wicked, evil, or good but they show to what length they could go.
I was the same human once, a person from the proud ruling class who sought to take any challenge comes in my way.
Seeking longevity, I accepted the offer to guard the land of shadows for my life, become witch queen and slain warriors, wraiths, and even gods whoever come in the range of my spear.
However, in this madness, I forgot why I was even given a life.
The ultimate goal of life is death.
May call curses or blessing but I started to lose hope to receive death. I knew that I should have killed myself but I was seeking one last fight to the death.
The death of a warrior was all I ever wanted.
In this pursuit, I started to raise many warriors as their mentor, in hope that one would soon kill me and grant me my only wish but such a wish always remain a dream until a brave warrior with red eyes came under my teachings.
Cu Chulainn, originally Sétanta was the child of war god Lugh. The moment I met him, I knew he had talent but whether or not he can grant my wish was for the future.
Along with another brave warrior Ferdiad, I trained both of them. They both showed exceptional abilities to wield Gáe Bolg, the demonic spear.
Once my sister announced war against me, I took the initiative to answer such a call but I didn't expect my two best disciples to join the battle. After another hellish massacre, I asked the only person in my eyes to receive death but it was too late. I already became a divine spirit of the land of shadows unable to die.
It was at that time I lost all hope. Warriors still came for my teachings, promising me then losing their lives, was something normal for me.
Soon outside world became deserted and time passed. Like a puppet with a single wish, I lived in the wasteland with spirits of fallen warriors to spend some time with but they also returned for the cycle of reincarnation.
Not until a half-fairy come to this land. The same kind of demand and same kind of promise, I believed all of this since there is nothing I could do if he also forgot his promise and die on the battlefield.
But Einar Sirius du lac was different from any person I have met.
His resolve, his learning power, abilities to adapt to the situation, everything about him were just like my former disciple Cu Chulainn… well a little superior to Sétanta.
However, something was different about him. I didn't know when and how but I was alive. I began to enjoy 'life', something very new that I didn't wish for and yet still liked.
I realized that maybe… just maybe he can grand my wish to be killed by a person so I let him learn divine runes.
As a teacher, I shouldn't let my student come near danger like self-destructing but I cannot ignore his potential so I broke that rule and the result was a success. He can use Divine Runes, maybe he can grant my wish to die.
Although I knew that he could even destroy the world with such magic, my selfish wish had exceeded my rationality.
When asked if he could do it then his answer was,
"Shishou, I never agreed for such request as to kill you."
It was expected. A loving person like him can't possibly kill his loved ones. I knew he has feelings for me so he would never be able to kill me.
"Shishou, you don't wish to die but be saved. I will grant your wish, please believe in me."
At that time, I realized that he was indeed far different from Sétanta. My heartbeat rose and melted as if it was alive. I can't help but fall for this beautiful perverted fairy.
I then started to believe in him from that moment, even if I have to wait for a couple of hundred years. I believed in him in the hope to be saved by him and live a true life.

(Einar's POV)
Precisely 13 months had passed since I come under her apprenticeship.
After obtaining the book of divine runes, I put all of my attention into learning divine runes.
Divine runes are considered the hardest magic- no it will be wise to say that it creates the phenomenon.
A single rune could shape the very meaning of something. Whether converting a grain of sand into gold or even granting that gold life becomes possible for me.
In short, you could do anything.
However, there is a huge cost behind it. I could only write/cast a single rune in a day that sucked nearly 3/4th of my mana along with leaving me exhausted. After that, I require a cool down for another day. In short, I can only make 4 runes in a week.
Just practicing one almost took a month but thanks to the cheat abilities that my sacred treasures offer, I made rapid progress.
Just a month ago, along with Elaine, I created a plan to make a grand spell, a spell that could change the very law of this universe.
I didn't tell Scáthach since no teacher wants to learn that her student is going to destroy the schooling system but I knew deep inside that she was well aware of what I was doing.
However, this grand spell requires a complete and complex set of runes that will take most likely another 10 to 9 years to finish.
I decided to use Aldan instead of the Book of Chastiefol to make that spell. Chastiefol has the ability to store only ready-to-use spells that acts like buffs but if someone truly wants magic like hiding your true appearance or making a reality marble then Aldan is best for you.
Magic, aside from rune magecraft, is reality marble that I learned from Scáthach. It is like creating a different reality like certain Ctrl C + Ctrl V hero.
Scáthach told me that she has another trump card besides Gáe Bolg and Primordial Rune called Gate of Skype that grants her the ability to summon land of shadows in any other place to suck anyone's soul or apply her own laws on such place unless you are lucky or have magic resistance.
Well in luck, she was quite inferior to me.
"You silly disciple, how come your luck is so good?" Scáthach asked while looking at her cards with sweat on her forehead.
"Haha, I told you that in games of luck, you could never defeat me. Still, never in my life, I am so grateful for my luck than now to see my Shishou in bunny girl outfit." I also smiled and didn't mind ogling her beautiful body in a bunny girl outfit.
It was my last day here in the land of shadows. As a parting gift, she wanted me to wear similar skin-tight attire like her other disciples but in golden color similar to my hair. However, there is no way I could wear something like that.
First, I was short and didn't have a handsome body that I could be proud of. Second I would look like a taxi. Third, my little brother would die from depression in such a tight predicament if someday I got an erection. There were a number of reasons why I can't accept her 'gift'.
And the gift she meant was forcing me to wear that spandex.
Seeing me not agreeing, she put the condition to play some casual games.
I also placed a bet to make her wear some of my outfits if she loses.
Then whether it was Ludo, chess, Shogi, carrom, snooker any other game, she lost terribly.
Every time she loses, I made her wear different outfits and take as many photos as I can. Nurse, teacher, catgirl, maid, office lady, bride, and now bunny girl, I fulfilled otaku's true desire and showed my degeneracy to her.
I seriously have no life, I wonder.
"And you lost again. Seriously Shishou, you even lost in games like UNO. Just what is the rank of your luck?" I smirked as placed my cards and won.
"Humph, I already said that you have surpassed your Shishou a long time ago so I admit my defeat." She was again not a stubborn person. It is indeed true that I was and even now stronger than her and she admits that.
"Please don't say that. You hold an important position in my heart. Even if I become someone extraordinary, I will never forget your kindness."
"Ara, quite a flattery you are showing seeing me in this outfit. How about another spar?"
"Nah, I pass."
If I fight again, I will end up spending more time than I didn't want. I never left this place since she didn't want me to leave so I was unaware of what was happing in Camelot.
However, I left a mystic code in Artoria's care that can send a distress signal if something major happens in Camelot. Since I didn't receive any so I refrained from leaving as it could have disrupted my focus on my training.
"So you got any other outfit to lewd on my body?" Scáthach asked raising a brow.
"Sigh* Nah, I think this is enough. I think I should go." I sighed and stood up to leave.
"What a letdown. I was also looking forward to seeing my disciple in the gift I prepared." She also sighed and stood up and we came out of the castle.
"Maybe if you decide to be my woman then I will do anything for you." I chuckled softly.
"Even granting death?"
"Yes, even if I have to put a rock on my heart, I will do it. But first, you have to wait a little longer."
"Then I will wait."
For the next couple of minutes, we just stared at each other without saying a single word or moving an inch. Hug or even handshake, we knew that we won't be able to let go of each other.
As if saying farewell from gestures, I turned around, rose in the air, and left without looking back. I was a man with my own pride and was afraid to show my tears to her.
Goodbye Land of Shadows

(Scáthach's POV)
"Hmm tears...?" I realized I was again shedding tears.
"Fuh, I am really attached to him but alas, he will also suffer."
After seeing his determination and resolve for said girl and people who were fated to be destroyed like my own people, I knew from foresight that he will despair.
"In the end, I still have to help for my cute disciple. Even if he is strong and decisive, he can't face everything alone. Looks like I have to prepare some cards to draw…"
After he left, I also returned to my home to prepare Gate of Skye.
"I wonder if I would be sentenced to the death penalty if I lewd on legal shota…?"
