On this day, a mysterious masked woman appeared in the Matou family.
According to Shinji, he is a friend of Justisa and a new teacher specially invited to teach three rookie magicians.
Although this new teacher was not well-known in the magic world, her vision and ability to teach students were unquestionable. With just one glance, she saw the magical attributes of Kariya and Sakura, as well as their own strengths and weaknesses, and gave corresponding suggestions, which convinced the two people who did not know the truth.
There are only a handful of people who have such vision and ability, and she is a woman, and she appears in the Matou family. The answer is obvious - the servant summoned by Shinji is also his teacher Scathach.
Later, his comments on Tsuruya who was yawning as he passed by were so to the point that they were breathtaking.
That's what she said.
"You have been addicted to alcohol and sex, and have overindulged yourself in sexual activities. You have already damaged your health in your thirties. If you don't take care of yourself and exercise as soon as possible, you won't live past forty."
He was also shocked. After more than half a year, he was already very clear about Yustisa's strength. The people Yustisa invited were naturally not ordinary people. There was no need to doubt what such a person said.
With a "thump", He also knelt down.
At present, he is in power, and all the affairs of the Matou family are handled by him, which is completely different from the puppet head of the family in the past. Although he is not the kind of person who covets power, he has finally tasted the taste of power, and he really doesn't want to die so soon.
Shinji couldn't stand it anymore and stepped in to help: "Since the master has said it, there must be a way. Do as the master asks, and I guarantee you a long life."
Master is what every disciple of Scathach calls her during their apprenticeship, and Shinji is no exception.
"Really?" Tsuruya's eyes were full of hope, which inadvertently matched Scathach's preference - straightforwardness. When dealing with Scathach, the most important thing is to be sincere and not to disguise anything, even if it is evil or despicable, one should not hide it.
Scathach did not deny it, but just said: "It is difficult for you to live to be a hundred years old with your body, but if you work hard, you can live to be seventy or eighty years old."
"Yes, from today on, I will do whatever you say." Father and son are father and son after all, and Tsuruya is even more single than Shinji.
"From today on, I will stop drinking and having sex."
"Uh... yes." Heye hesitated and nodded in response. After all, his life was more important.
"You are not allowed to go to bed after 10 o'clock at night."
"yes."
"Wake up at 5am and do my physical training with Shinji."
"yes."
With every additional answer, Tsuruya's face became more gloomy.
A female devil, definitely a female devil, even more exaggerated than Justisa.
Goodbye, my wine.
Farewell, young girls. (Even if he had the courage of a crane, he would not dare to covet Yustisa and Scathach.)
Just as He Ye was trembling and distracted, Scathach suddenly said: "Devil girl, is this your evaluation of me and Justisa?"
"Eh?" Having his secrets exposed, He Ye suddenly looked up and met those devilish eyes.
"Wondering how I would know that?"
Tsuruya nodded woodenly.
"It's just that I've lived longer." Scathach said calmly, but her slender figure and smooth skin didn't seem convincing. "However, I can't turn a blind eye to the slander against the two ladies. You should be prepared."
He was already completely stiff and completely speechless.
"Master, you look so handsome." Sakura, curled up on the sofa like a kitten, blinked her big eyes, and an expression of longing appeared on her little face.
Shinji thought it was not good. Wouldn't it be bad if a nice soft girl developed into a strong and domineering lady
He quickly said to his sister: "Don't learn this from your teacher. Girls should be gentle, or you won't be able to get married."
Although Shinji spoke in a low voice, it did not escape the ears of Scathach, who served as the Assassin. She grabbed the coaster on the coffee table and smashed it, hitting Shinji on the forehead.
"It is also beneath a man's dignity to speak ill of a lady behind her back. It seems that both of you need a good lesson. Follow me."
"Yes~" The father and son followed Scathach dejectedly like two defeated roosters.
The remaining Kariya and Sakura looked at each other and smiled, saying in unison: "Brother is an idiot."
Justisa continued to flip through the books she found in Zōken's collection with an expressionless face, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with her. However, when she glanced in the direction where Shinji left, there was a hint of a strange emotion that even she herself did not understand.
No matter what this emotion represents, it proves that she has taken a step closer to becoming human, which is also what Shinji expects.
After a small episode, the hellish and arduous training began.
Although Scathach has an educational policy of teaching without discrimination and teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, her educational model is the most typical Spartan one.
Scathach was a completely different person after entering the teacher's state. Her elegant and intellectual aura was gone, replaced by a harsh and almost cruel one. Not only were the training items difficult and dangerous, but if they were not satisfied, they would be beaten and punished. After a class, no one could be intact. However, this famous teacher had already prepared runes for healing, and they would be back to normal after a short rest.
However, although the physical injuries recovered, the shadow on the soul could not be erased.
Shinji and Sakura were fine, after all they were young and still growing, so Scathach was quite lenient when teaching them in order not to affect their physical development. Tsuruya and Kariya, two adults, were miserable, they had all kinds of extreme training, fainted countless times during training, and even had thoughts of running away, but the difference was that Kariya didn't put it into practice, but Tsuruya did.
However, this was useless. There were only two results for accepting Scathach's teachings - either graduation or death. As long as they didn't die, they had to stick to it, so much so that during their rare free time, the two brothers would avoid Scathach.
Through constant training that pushes the limits, everyone in the Matou family grows at an astonishing rate.
The one who has grown the fastest in magic is Sakura. She has the best magical talent in the family, and her "Hollow" attribute is close to Scathach's "Shadow". In just two months, she has not only surpassed Shinji, but is also on par with Kariya who has the assistance of Magic Seals.
Shinji is much inferior to Sakura in magic, but in terms of physical skills and martial arts, his progress is greater than the other three combined. I don't know if it was influenced by Perseus's "God's Descent", Shinji's physique is not like that of modern people, but closer to the ancient Age of Gods. Such a body, coupled with Scathach's warrior teachings, has produced changes far greater than one plus one equals two.
Kariya's aptitude is even worse than Shinji's, and his body has passed its best training period. Whether in physical skills or magic, his growth cannot compare to his gifted nephew and niece. However, his hard work and perseverance impressed even Scathach, and it is just a matter of time before he can get rid of the label of a rookie.
As for Tsuruya, his original intention of exercising was not to improve his strength but to strengthen his body, and from this aspect alone, the results were indeed gratifying. Although his body shape did not change significantly, his lines were tougher and his muscles were streamlined all over his body. When he went out to attend a business reception, several "old friends" said that he was more manly - well, in front of Scathach, he was still a hamster who couldn't hold his head up.
In this way, time passed day by day, the spiritual veins under Fuyuki City became more and more active, and the mysterious atmosphere in the air became stronger and stronger.
Finally one day, a sudden piece of news broke the monotonous life of the Matou family.
"Tousaka Aoi and Rin will leave Fuyuki City and return to the Zenjo family the day after tomorrow."
PS: Scathach's comment on Maeve: "A girl who is hopelessly fond of playing pranks. She likes men too much. However, she doesn't dislike such straightforward people."
PS2: Scathach's comment on Fergus (Gon): "He likes women too much. But, he doesn't dislike such straightforward people."
PS3: The Master usually looks intelligent and gentle, but he will really beat people up when he gets angry. After Cu Chulainn had sex with his sister Eve, he was hit with a huge rock by the furious Scathach.
PS4: Cu Chulainn graduated after studying with Scathach for one year and one month, which shows Scathach's teaching level.
PS5: Kariya would certainly not use such a tone, he was just cooperating with Sakura in making trouble and mocking his brother at the same time.
