บท 140: Chapter 136 (Scáthach 2)

At first, Alex didn't really know how to treat women good enough, because he thought he can make them happy by just giving them gifts or any materialistic things. But, when Eva and Catherine talk to him about it.

He had a moment of realization, that maybe they were right. As he though about his fragmented past... Although he can't remember clearly but he knows that he treated someone important to him like that in the past.

With this realization, he said to himself that he will treat them right and strengthen their relationship. You may think of him as an idiot but actually he knows how frail his relationship are with the other girls. Especially girls like Rose, he knows that Rose was only with him because she wanted to be protected and he was okay with that because he thought that along the line maybe she will fall for him, anyway, most of it was his lust though. He had a quote in the past that he always believe; "If there is no Lust there is no Love."

His love for them are also just a little because he was already prepared for separation... just like in the past. That is until he had a realization. That's why right now he quickly wanted for his girls to get stronger so that they can fight with him on equal grounds.

The main reason Alex wanted Scáthach as his woman was because he had learned legends about her being a master of weapons and she had teach many heroes in the past, because of that he wanted Scáthach to teach his girls. Well, having a beautiful woman by his side was also the main reason. He can't just quickly change his personality, he still remained a pervert, a carefree pervert who will do what he wants.

...

"Scathy? Me? and you said that you can't let me pass?." Scáthach said, her face remained indifferent

"That's right, Sorry, little Scathy! The undead people at the back are all my people." Alex said with a smile

"You mean a human is the leader of a undead?." Scáthach asked without any change in her expression, as if she felt nothing when Alex called her like that.

"Who says a human can't lead the undead?. Alex said

"Heh!." Scáthach sneered at the ignorant human infront of her and indifferently said "What makes you think that you can stop me? I don't know how a human can go to this place but it seems you are new here to think that you can stop me."

"I don't know if it's the same here but about Scáthach that guards the gate of Land of Shadow, I know quite a bit." Alex said

"I have not met any human for how many years, and you are the first one to have last long enough to talk to me. If not for you being a human who I have not met in so many years; you would have already died by now. Still, it doesn't change the fact that you will die." Scáthach said while preparing to move

"Well, let's exchange pointers, Sensei." Alex grinned and a red ominous spear appeared in his hand

"!!?!?." Scáthach who was preparing to move showed chaotic emotion but it was quickly covered by indifference

"How? A replica?." She asked

"Replica? you mean this? how about little Scathy try it?." Alex said with a smile, he was also a bit curious on how his system works, if his was actually a replica.

Scáthach looked at the spear in Alex's hand seriously, she then said. "This hand of mine truly have killed so many life; A human. A spirit. A god.

I have met and killed countless existence as the time flows. I have slaughtered those who are all my enemies until I've become numb; Emotions? what is that? I have already forgotten; Life? I do not understand the meaning of it. I will not age, I will not die, I've already become to which you can call immortal.

I have forgotten what was the meaning of guarding the 'gate'. All I know is to kill, kill, kill, and kill. Regret? I do not understand it. I have experienced many things. Now, I want to embrace the hands of death.

As Scáthach finished saying she looked closely to the human who was listening to her before continuing. "You might want to ask why I am saying all of this, it's because I've found hope. Hope to die as a warrior, meeting you and seeing that weapon, no that spear, Gae Bolg, I've thought that maybe you can do it. But, the you right now can't kill me. So, how about this human, no how about this young man. I will become your master." Scàthach finished while she smiled.

Alex looked at her for a couple of second, before laughing.

"Hahaha, I say woman you want to become my master?"

"That's right, but what are you laughing for?" Scàthach asked

"You said you don't understand and forgotten emotions right?" Alex asked while smiling

Scàthach nodded

"You might not understand it or forgot about it. But, it's not like it disappeared, talking to you I have clearly see your emotions even for just a bit. You don't understand the meaning of life, though, I think your life just don't have any meaning left, that's why I will give you one." Alex said

"I don't understand what you are talking about." Scàthach frowned

"Then let me explain it, you thought I can't kill you but I can, I just don't want to. You want to become my master? You are good at using all kinds of weapon, specially your spearman ship, learning from you isn't that bad but you don't need to become my master for me learn it.

You don't understand emotions I will teach it to you. Become my woman and we will experience different emotions together. Your life has no meaning and you wanted death? then live for me, death isn't that good. I have already experienced it but I deny it, I deny death. You will not age and you will not die, having that would make all of the entire world's woman envy you.

You can't die because your an Immortal. You could die but you can't because you wanted to die as a warrior. Yet, you can't find anyone who has the qualifications to kill you and since immortals can't die because of age that's why you won't die.

I can kill you but I don't want to. That's why I will ask you this, spend eternity with me, with me by your side you can find and remember emotions and what is you life meant for."

"Become my woman"
