The Recorder of Type-Moon History

"Master, can I ask you a question?"

Kevin gradually calmed down from the excitement. After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but looked at Scathach. After she nodded, he said carefully: "Well, why are you willing to agree to me?"

Kevin thought that Scathach would agree to take him as her apprentice, but he thought more about what he should do if she didn't agree.

So in this way, confirming the relationship with just a few words gave him a very unreal feeling.

"Because I like you." Kevin was stunned by the words. He thought he had misheard something. However, when he looked at Scathach, his mouth slowly opened...

"Taking on disciples is my job. Although I did set up various obstacles, that was mainly to prevent too many bugs from coming.

As for those who are capable of coming to me to pursue martial arts and those who are striving for their goals, I don't mind giving them the rewards they want... What's wrong with you?"

After answering Kevin's questions, Scathach raised her eyebrows as she saw Kevin subconsciously taking two steps back and looking at her in horror.

As mentioned earlier, if Kevin had grown up normally, with his potential, he would not even be able to pass the initial assessment to go to the Shadow Kingdom to meet Scathach, and that was the obstacle that Scathach mentioned.

The Kingdom of Shadows is a devilish land where shadows spread everywhere, a dark place where sunlight can never penetrate, and a world of true death!

It is not a country that ordinary people can normally step into, not to mention why they screen out "bugs". Scathach also set up obstacles outside... In fact, it just threw a lot of monsters that came to attack the Shadow Kingdom on the road.

Therefore, just becoming Scathach's disciple is an honor worth bragging about, otherwise Kevin would not have been unable to resist asking Scathach the reason.

"No, it's okay." Kevin lowered his head awkwardly. He understood and realized he had misunderstood.

To put it bluntly, Scathach's meaning was that she felt she was to her liking, and then she felt his determination, so she accepted her as her apprentice.

Scathach looked at Kevin in confusion, and then began to wonder whether she should throw a rune at him to make him tell the truth.

"Then...Master, do I need to follow you to the Kingdom of Shadows right now?" Fortunately, although Kevin didn't know what she was thinking, he decisively changed the subject.

"No need, and if you go now, you will be committing suicide." Scathach did not hesitate too much. She stood up and walked into the forest.

Kevin looked at her leaving back, quickly packed up his things and followed her.

Although Kevin had come to the Yari Forest many times, he had never actually entered it and usually just wandered around outside.

After all, in this era, there are terrible monsters in the forest!

Along the way, Scathach, who was like taking a walk in her own backyard, killed some ungrateful beasts with a spear in hand, and finally brought Kevin to a quiet place.

"Let's go here." After scanning the surroundings, Scathach nodded with satisfaction, and said to Kevin who was a little puzzled beside her: "My first task for you is to build a wooden house within the next week."

After saying that, Scathach pulled out the sword from Kevin's side, picked up a branch at random, cut it into pieces, and then carved on it with her hands.

"Here." After handing Kevin the eleven carved wooden blocks, Scathach said, "Sprinkle these around and it will create an illusion. Keep one for yourself, and you can come and go freely."

In fact, Scathach could take Kevin into the Shadow Kingdom, but as she said, taking him there now would be sending him to death. Although Kevin chose a path that she thought was full of thorns, she would not let him die right from the start.

Holding the wooden block engraved with runes, Kevin nodded.

In fact, he thought it was fine this way. He didn't want to be special. Since entering the Kingdom of Shadows itself was a test, he wanted to walk in with his own feet!

"Can I tell others about your story?" Kevin thought for a moment and asked, thinking that he might stay here for the rest of the time.

Scathach shook her head: "In fact, the me you see now is not the real me, but the clone imprinted by Rune. My real body is still sitting in the Kingdom of Shadows!"

Hearing her say this, Kevin instantly understood why he was initially shocked by Scathach's appearance.

In fact, battles often break out in the Shadow Kingdom. According to the warriors who have returned from the Shadow Kingdom, there are people coming to challenge almost every other day, or various monsters and undead attacks.

"I'm actually not that busy." Scathach looked at Kevin's thoughtful expression and probably guessed what he was thinking. After all, there are always a few people who can pass the test every year.

"After all, I have so many disciples. If any stinky fish or shrimp could break in, I would have thrown them out to feed the monsters long ago."

...Is this the main reason why you set up tests to recruit disciples?!

When Kevin came back with the wood blocks scattered around, he found a very beautiful bird in Scathach's hand. He didn't react at first, but after a closer look...

"Hey!" Kevin was stunned and asked in surprise: "Why are you here?"

That beautiful bird was the servant of Luger who brought the divine fruit to Kevin.

"I caught her."

Before the bird that was looking at Kevin with its big watery eyes could speak, Scathach said calmly: "The last time we met, I found that she was following you... Go back and tell Ruger that I have no intention of dealing with Kevin, and from today on, he is my apprentice!"

"Should I still give you the divine fruit?" The bird, who wanted to escape from Scathach but didn't dare, said cautiously.

"Divine fruit?" Before Kevin could speak, Scathach was stunned for a moment, and looked at Kevin. After he nodded, she turned her head to the bird and said, "Yes!"

After the bird was released by Scathach and flew away, Scathach asked casually: "Speaking of the divine fruit, are you eating it?"

"Yeah." Kevin nodded and answered truthfully, "They were delivered to us for the first three years. Now that there is no effect, we only get two or three a week."

"I've been eating it for three years, and they're still giving it to me?" Scathach was stunned again, and looked at Kevin: "Cu Chulainn has some too?"

"No." Kevin shook his head and said, "Father said Cu Chulainn didn't need it. I took it to replenish my body, but even so, I am now..."

"But I remember that he seemed to have given you the magic sword, one of his two secret treasures?" Scathach's eyes looked a little strange as she spoke.

"Father didn't say to send it."

"Did he ask you to pay it back when?"

Kevin thought about it and shook his head.

"...Who among you is the biological son?"

How do I respond to this?

Kevin chose to keep his mouth shut.
