thousands of blazing hairs floated in the cold wind, some even drifted on Kevin's face.
Kevin, who was held in Scathach's arms, stared blankly at her as she lowered her head. He looked at Scathach's beautiful eyes for a long time, and his nose felt sore.
It turns out that you still care about me...
Scathach held Kevin in her arms, jumped lightly to the ground, and half squatted down. She did not put him down. Her eyes swept over his tattered body, and her brows gradually frowned.
"Where's the divine fruit?"
Her voice was as soft as usual, but Kevin saw questioning, anger and... a hint of fear in her eyes.
Since it was Kevin's graduation test, Scathach naturally considered all aspects, and Kevin's magical fruit with recovery function was naturally also taken into consideration.
And at the beginning, she also asked Xiaoniao to remind Kevin not to use the magic fruit indiscriminately, otherwise the consequences would be serious!
Yes, the reason why Kevin was so "late" and had serious injuries was because he had used up too much energy after the battle outside Fergal Castle.
By the way, if Scathach had not saved him and skipped this last test, Kevin would not be able to cope with the turbulent river with his current physical condition!
Kevin did not answer Scathach's words. He did not even hear clearly what Scathach said. He just looked at her quietly, his right hand tightly grasping the corner of her shirt.
Scathach was stunned for a moment, then her eyes softened, she stood up, and ran quickly towards the castle holding him in her arms.
And almost at the moment she stood up, Kevin's eyes slowly closed, as if a nerve that had been tense for a long time finally broke, and he leaned his body in Scathach's arms and fainted.
"division...!"
On her way to the castle of the Kingdom of Shadows, the disciples who followed her saw her. They were about to ask her the specific reason, but they saw that Scathach seemed not to see them, and just walked past them and ignored them.
"Um..." Ferdia looked at Scathach's rapidly receding back, blinked, and then asked Cuchulainn, who was supported by him and had many broken bones, curiously: "Could the person in his arms be Kevin?"
"Yeah." Cu Chulainn nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with some excitement and joy: "He is Kevin!"
Kevin slept for a long time, he didn't know how long exactly, he only knew that when he woke up, his body was still in pain, but not as severe as before.
At the same time, Scathach sat next to him.
"...master?"
Kevin, whose brain was not fully awake yet, looked at her and subconsciously reached out to touch her face, as if he wanted to confirm whether this was an illusion.
Scathach did not stop him. As he stroked her for a moment, she said slowly, "You are dreaming."
"Huh?" Kevin was stunned as he looked into her eyes. As his brain became more clear, he opened his eyes wide, his body trembled subconsciously, and he quickly retracted his hand!
...Pinched secretly.
The feeling just now...was so great!
Scathach didn't notice his little action... maybe she noticed it, but she didn't care, and repeated it again: "You are dreaming."
"...Hmm?" Kevin heard it clearly this time, blinked, and tilted his head, not understanding why Scathach emphasized this.
"You say." Scathach said expressionlessly: "I'll beat your stinky master to death. You only know how to mess with me, you BBA! Wait, one day, I will definitely pin you to the ground and rub you!... What does BBA mean?"
After saying this, Kevin, who was in a daze, almost burst into tears.
"Master, this is just a dream. You can't take dreams seriously!"
"Really?" Scathach tilted her head, "But I remember someone saying that talking in dreams is the most sincere language."
"…It hurts, it hurts, my body hurts so much!" Kevin simply pulled the quilt and huddled inside.
"Come out." Scathach, who was sitting with her long legs crossed, raised her lips slightly. She stretched out her foot and lightly kicked Kevin who was hiding. She said calmly: "I have treated your body. You won't die."
"...Master, my good Master." After a few seconds of silence, Kevin showed his head and saw Scathach's eye-catching perfect curves as she bent slightly.
After staring at her for a few seconds, he looked up and blinked at her, saying pitifully: "Don't hit me, if you hit me now, I will really die!"
"It's okay." Scathach glanced aside and saw the divine fruits piled up on the table over the past month after Kevin was pushed into the trial.
In fact, the amount of divine fruits accumulated in this month is more than that in the previous three months combined.
"With so many divine fruits, it won't be that easy for you to die."
"Um... By the way, Master, have you seen my brother Cu Chulainn?!" Kevin followed her line of sight and saw it. His mouth twitched and he decisively changed the subject: "He should have arrived a long time ago, right?"
"Yeah." Scathach nodded slightly.
Before Kevin could say anything about his thick skin, he heard Scathach say, "You're quite tough. I broke most of your bones, but you were able to get up two or three days later without any healing medicine."
...Fuck!
Kevin looked at Scathach with wide eyes.
What else can I say?
Frustrated, Kevin leaned forward, closed his eyes, and wailed as if he was ready to die heroically: "Okay, Master, you can kill me or chop me up as you like, but just remember to leave me an intact body!"
"Just keep talking nonsense." Scathach raised the corners of her mouth and reached out to pinch his face.
Looking at Scathach's gentle smile, although Kevin felt it was enjoyable both visually and mentally, he always felt that something was not right.
Hmm...is Master a little too gentle today?
Could it be that the difficulty of this trial was a little too great, and she finally felt guilty?
But... why do I always feel like I'm about to be guillotined, so I have to eat a gentle meal first? !
Kevin couldn't help but jump for joy when being treated so gently by Scathach... Of course, he was still a little happy, but more of him felt a chill down his spine.
Just as Scathach knew him very well and didn't give him any chance to escape, it was impossible for Kevin, who had survived her hands thousands of times, not to understand her.
"That master..." Kevin, whose face was pinched, looked at Scathach carefully and said, "I have passed the test, right?... I don't need to go again, right!"
"Yeah." Scathach smiled even brighter when this was mentioned, and nodded happily: "Yes, you have passed the test, don't worry, don't worry about going through it again!"
Kevin stared at Scathach and tilted his head for a moment.
Hmm, that's strange...it seems to be fine.
Could it be that she really has a change of heart and I was just overly suspicious?
"You are worthy of being my proud apprentice." Scathach reached out and pinched Kevin's face again, and said with a smile: "Congratulations on completing the graduation assessment. Master, I am proud of you!"
"Of course!" Kevin couldn't help but feel happy when Scathach praised him. He raised his head proudly and said, "Isn't it just a graduation test?! Of course it's easy to do...
etc?"
Kevin was stunned.
Graduation assessment?
...
Element awareness!
Open your eyes wide!
"Bi...!" Before he could finish his words, he looked up and saw Scathach, who had stood up at some point, with an expressionless face and a magic gun in her hand.
The tip of the magic gun was now pointed at Kevin's head.
"In the Shadow Kingdom, there is an iron rule."
Then, Kevin heard Scathach's expression return to calm, and said in a devilish voice, "Defeat me, or... submit to me and listen to me!"
