Lost Narrative Poetry

"I just have nothing to do, so I can just come over and take a look, it can be considered a walk around..."

The magician who walked into the palace said casually, and then looked at the main body of the shadow castle with interest. It can be seen from the main hall that it is also majestic.

And it looks familiar...

It seems to be the Shadow Castle in the Kingdom of Shadows, one of the Celtic wonderlands in the world of Fate. He had seen it from a distance on the British Isles, so he had some impression of it. However, he did not remember that Miss Scathach traveled to this world with her hometown.

So to say--

"Is this your application of power?" Xia Ran blinked and looked at the purple-haired queen in the palace and asked with some interest.

"Power, do you actually know something about it? That's it. I just came to this land and didn't know anything, but I found some familiar details, so I made a guess and stayed in this land. to explore.”

Scathach stood up from his seat and said in a calm voice.

"But before I could figure out what was going on, a certain existence sleeping on this island was awakened by me. After I defeated her, I inexplicably gained the same power as her, and was called For the power of power.”

She had recovered from the surprise just now, and felt that there was nothing strange about this man appearing in front of her. After all, he was the one who sent her here in the first place.

So there is no reason to say that he can send people to other worlds, but he can't follow them... If this is the case, the technical flaws are too serious. Scathach felt that this was nothing to worry about. It was just something that happened suddenly that surprised her somewhat.

I don’t know what this person wanted to do when he suddenly came over... Probably because of the deep impression he had on this guy, Scathach still has some stress reactions now.

She was already secretly alert. While talking about what she had experienced since coming to this world, she quickly looked at the magician's expression and speculated on his intentions.

If she really wanted to help, she wouldn't resist. After all, it was regarded as a favor. The other party gave her the opportunity to see more scenery, so she had to repay the favor when she had the opportunity. This was Kai's The way of life of an Erte warrior.

But, Scathach was afraid that this person had a bad taste.

This is not without a criminal record. Even though several years have passed, Miss Scathach still can't forget what happened in Camelot's Lost Belt. It can't be said to be a psychological shadow, but she is more or less obsessed with it.

"So that's it. Speaking of which, does this count as me killing myself?"

Xia Ran touched his chin and couldn't help laughing. He traced the cause and effect along the subtle and mysterious connections derived from the words of the person involved. He saw what happened "in the beginning" almost instantly, and his eyes seemed to be traveling through time. Through the deep sea.

A few years ago, this land belonged to the Isle of Skye.

The sky is gloomy and gray, dense lead clouds hang low, and the air is filled with an ominous atmosphere. The vague pressure and aura that circulates can directly suffocate humans. Huge thunder collides and bursts out between the gaps in the clouds, and thunder A roar swept across the land.

And on this land, there are two powerful beings confronting each other...

On one side is a sassy beauty wearing a tight-fitting battle armor that highlights her beautiful figure and devilish curves. Her long purple hair has the temperament of a royal sister.

On the other side was an equally beautiful woman, but she was as tall as a legendary giant, and her clothes were also primitive and rough.

One of them is, of course, Ms. Scathach from the world of Fate.

The legendary warrior of Celtic Ulster, as the queen and guardian of the "Land of Shadows", the Lord of the Demon Realm, and a genius in spearmanship and rune magic. With the skills to enter the divine realm and the mastery of ancient rune magic, he is known as the god-level god-killer and has taught many warriors and magicians.

However, the other party in the confrontation...

What makes people laugh or cry is that it is also Scathach.

Her true form is the disobedient god who sleeps on this island, the female war goddess in Celtic mythology, known as "the Shadow" and "Warrior Maid", in the legend of Ulster A brave man and a teacher of martial arts, many other heroes in Celtic legends also learned superb combat skills under the guidance of this female war goddess.

It's probably because their inner essences are too similar. In a sense, they belong to the same place in different time and space. The corresponding legends in Celtic mythology can point to both sides at the same time.

So when Miss Scathach, who came from another world, wandered around the otherworldly land she was familiar with, she unintentionally awakened the disobedient god sleeping on the Isle of Skye - another "other" who was born in this world. Scathach”.

Miss Scathach, who didn't know what was going on at that time, naturally had a terrible battle with her.

Scathach VS Scathach.

The earth shattered like building blocks, and the loud thunder swept toward the sea around the island with visible air waves, setting off terrible waves and storms. Under the agitation of the air tide, the atmosphere rolled upwards, terrifying and twisted thunder and lightning fell continuously, and the flames formed a ferocious vortex.

In the end, under the thunder and flames, the Isle of Skye was changed beyond recognition, and the God of Disobedience was destroyed by the other's original runes and invincible magic spear.

Because Miss Scathach, who comes from another world, has an immortal curse on her body, and is also a god-killer who has entered the divine realm, this advantage finally made her the winner again and the first in this world. Seven god-killing demon kings.

"There's nothing funny about this...and what's wrong with you? Are you here specifically to see me this time?"

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, who came down from her seat, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this. She was not surprised that this person could instantly see the truth, but the words he spoke were not so pleasant to the ear.

What does it mean to kill myself?

She glanced at the knight girl who was kneeling on one knee and saluting beside her, and found that the latter was lowering her head and maintaining a respectful posture, but she was obviously listening quietly with her ears raised, and she didn't know how much she was thinking about at this time. thing.

"Also, you should get up first."

Miss Scathach sighed helplessly and spoke, while glaring at a certain magician.

This man really didn't care about anything. Maybe he didn't think there was any problem, but didn't he think it would bring trouble to him? Although she is not afraid of anything, she also hates those tedious and unnecessary troubles.

She is still very curious about this new world, far from seeing all the scenery, so she has no idea of ​​leaving for the time being.

"Yes, thank you for your kindness."

The girl with blond hair and wearing a gorgeous crimson dress stood up and then curiously glanced at the uninvited guest behind her, feeling doubtful in her heart.

There doesn't seem to be anything special about this young man. He doesn't even have a magical aura about him, so he doesn't look like a magician. But it is impossible for ordinary people to have his appearance and temperament, and to be able to chat and laugh with the seventh demon king, it is obvious that he is an insider.

But she had no impression at all. Logically speaking, such a person should be a big shot in the magic world.

But this is nothing. Just like the seventh devil in front of me, he was also unknown before. I had never heard of such a female magician before. She was so powerful and knowledgeable to such an extent. It was also like It seemed like it suddenly popped out of the stone.

"No, I'm not here to find you, and I don't need your help with anything..." Xia Ran shook his head and said calmly, but he was interrupted before he finished speaking.

"In that case, that's fine. If you want to walk around, feel free to walk around. I have something to do now, so I won't entertain you..."

As if waiting for him to say this, Scathach immediately nodded and finalized, and at the same time turned to look at the Italian girl with blond hair and red dress——

"Now, let's talk about your story. You said before that you are from the Red Copper Black Cross Magic Association in the southern European magic world. Are you here under orders this time?"

As long as nothing happens, the best thing is not to look for her when nothing happens, and even less so when something happens.

Regardless of whether this person was being polite or something else, Scathach took it seriously. And she had just thought about it seriously. With this guy's ability, if he couldn't handle it himself, then she would definitely not be able to help.

So if he really wants to ask for help, it must be because of his bad taste. In this regard, Scathach is grateful.

"Yes, I am Erica Brandley, and I belong to the Magic Association Copper and Black Cross..." The blonde girl calmed down her random thoughts with a solemn expression, and replied seriously, "This time it's not that we always Shuai came here in person, and I am very sorry, but we have no intention of neglecting it, mainly because..."

"Okay, okay, don't say this. It gives me a headache..." Scathach waved her hand helplessly. She would not have any temper because of these things. "You should be more direct and tell me you came to see me." I must have something going on."

At the same time, she glanced at the magician beside her.

The latter stood there quietly, without saying anything, but with a gentle smile on his face, waiting patiently.

Well, it does seem like he has some ulterior motives...

The purple-haired beauty Royal Sister secretly became more vigilant, and made up her mind that no matter what this person said later, she would never be fooled.

"That's it, King, I come here with sincerity this time..." The blond girl who was interrupted to explain her words stayed for a few seconds, but she quickly regained her composure and spoke quickly. He remembered his purpose of coming this time.

Regarding the problem of two god-killing demon kings existing within the European magic world.

There are no two days in the sky and no two kings in the country.

The impact of this matter is becoming increasingly far-reaching, and its scale is constantly expanding. It has now reached a point where it cannot be ignored and must be resolved as soon as possible.

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows settled on the familiar Isle of Skye. With the help of the power usurped from her other self, combined with her own magic and power, she recreated the Kingdom of Shadows in this world. of divine realm.

But her existence inevitably had a huge impact on the world's system.

Because the existence of the God Killer is of course the center of the entire world, no matter where he is, it will attract the tilt of various huge organizations or political forces, either out of fear or with speculative thoughts. People will always Gathered around the Demon King who rules the earth.

This is a natural thing, so although Miss Scathach did nothing, she just followed her past habits and settled in the alien land of Skye that she was familiar with. However, her existence itself made people absolutely unable to The law of neglect.

So in the past few years, with the Isle of Skye as the center, first Scotland inevitably gradually moved closer to her, then the entire United Kingdom, and then other regions in Europe...

In the end, the Southern European magic community couldn't sit still anymore. The king they followed didn't care about anything, but they couldn't pretend they didn't see it and watch the situation get worse. That might cause the center of Europe to shift to Scotland. , which will have a profound impact on the existing pattern and order.

"Is that the reason?"

Scathach frowned, "But as you can see, I have always been the only one living on this island, and I have never accepted anyone's oath of allegiance or following. This is not the case. What I control..."

"This..." Erica opened her mouth and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Of course she also knows this, but this matter does not change based on human will. As long as the seventh devil has been settling in Scotland, he will naturally gather in Europe with her as the center. Create a second huge interest group.

In other words, it cannot be said that it is gathering a second group in Europe, but splitting half of the power from Europe and becoming independent. This actually has no benefit.

"I know what you want to say, but I have to think about this first. After all, I live here originally, and there is no reason to accommodate you..."

Scathach shook his head, stopping Erica from speaking, and then frowned and looked in the direction of the magician.

"By the way, do you have anything else to do? As you can see, I have some things to deal with now. Since you didn't come to me to ask for help, then please do as you please..."

"..."

"..."

"No, aren't we friends?" Xia Ran tilted her head in confusion, "Why are you so defensive about me? This attitude is very sad."

"Since when have we been friends?" Scathach denied decisively. Although she and this person were no longer enemies, they were not yet friends. And although the friendship between the two parties can be described as "no acquaintance without fighting", does his definition of a friend mean that he has been bullied in a bad way?

That's too bad.

"Then there's nothing we can do...but, although I'm not here to find you, I didn't say that I'm not here to find her..."

Xia Ran said with a sigh, then turned to look at the other side, where the blond girl stood aside with a bitter and helpless expression.

"...Me?" The girl couldn't react for a moment. She stretched out a white and slender finger and pointed at her nose, asking uncertainly.

"That's right."

"..."

"..."

"H-I'm sorry, I don't quite understand. Why did you come to me...for?" After a long moment of silence, Erica twitched her lips and asked cautiously.

"Do you know the spirit of Golgotha?" the magician said calmly.

"I know, I know, this is a secret ritual passed down from generation to generation in our magic society. However, its origin is unknown. Some say it was taken from the 22nd Psalm of the Bible, a poem written by David. It is said that this poem predicted the death of Jesus Christ. The Passion and Resurrection are called Messianic Psalms…”

The blonde girl answered hesitantly.

"But there is also a theory that Christ was crucified on the cross at the execution ground on Mount Golgotha. Before his death, he sang a spiritual hymn called the Song of Disaster to the point of exhaustion... But no one It can be explained clearly that not only is it completely different from what is recorded in the Bible, but it also seems to be somewhat different from the current magic system."

"Yes, that's it." The magician nodded with satisfaction, "I'm here to get my things back now, and I'll need them soon."

"..."

"..."

There was silence.

Erica showed a troubled but polite awkward smile to the person in front of her. She didn't quite understand what this person was talking about.

"Well, it seems that you don't believe that it is originally mine, but forget it, just treat it as an exchange."

Xia Ran blinked and kindly made a suggestion, "In exchange, how about I help you drive her away from Europe? Don't worry, you heard it too. She is not my friend anyway..."

As he said this, he pointed at Scathach.

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows' expression suddenly froze.
