My mother's love song

She spent a long time outside the world, and became immortal over the long years, which means..."

"She is a human who has lived from the Age of Gods to the present day. She must have existed for at least three thousand years."

As Lanis spoke, she looked behind her with her peripheral vision. The purple-haired woman and the boy were fighting on the sofa.

Uh, that statement is not accurate. Rhodes was having his hair ravaged by Scathach while she sat on him.

"……Well!"

The fact that the legendary Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows appeared before her made Rin gasp.

As expected of the center of the modern magic world, the Clock Tower...

No, no, no, normally it's impossible to encounter a god-killing hero even in the Clock Tower, right?

Whether it is the Clock Tower Queen Barthemello or the Magic Association's first disaster evil spirit Gasami, they are completely not on the same level as her. But she is Scathach, right?

Out of politeness, Lin asked seriously, "Lenice, let me ask you something. It shouldn't be easy to meet a Heroic Spirit in London, right?"

How is that possible? Lanis snorted.

Until the Fourth Holy Grail War, Heroic Spirits existed only in fantasy.

No one had ever seen it, and no magician truly knew how powerful the Heroic Spirits were, so Kayneth, who underestimated the Holy Grail War, suffered a disastrous defeat.

"Anyway, this is the first time a Heroic Spirit has appeared in the Clock Tower, let alone a Heroic Spirit of Scathach's level. The name alone is enough to shock the world."

"Is that so?" Rin couldn't help but lean forward.

"She is the queen Scathach who rules the outer world." Lyannis said briefly.

“…Yeah, that’s true.”

Rin nodded.

How awesome...

It was really unrealistic that a legendary hero like Scathach was in the same room with me. Could it be that I was still sleepy this morning?

However, maybe Rod, who was fighting with Scathach, was more powerful than he thought?

"I'm going to take this guy out with me."

At this time, Scathach suddenly came behind them, dragged Rhode who looked reluctant and said to them: "It's a rare opportunity to come to the human world. You can't always stay in the hotel. It's too boring."

Lin twitched his lips: "Hey? Are you going to go out wearing this?"

Scathach looked down at her outfit and said, "Hmm? What else?"

"Of course not!"

Chapter 503 What is it like to visit the grave of your current wife with a woman from the past?

At nine o'clock in the morning, Rod, Scathach, Rin and Lanis left the hotel together.

However, their destinations are different. Lin will follow Lanis to visit the clock tower, while Rod said that he has some private matters to attend to and will leave London and return before night.

Since Scathach and Rod were handcuffed together, she had to be taken with her for this "private matter".

Fortunately, Scathach originally came to this world with the intention of traveling and relaxing, so it doesn't matter where she goes.

"I want to make it clear in advance that you must not have any strange ideas and think that I lied to them about some 'private matter' because I wanted to be alone with you."

Rod said as he looked at Rin and Lanis's receding backs.

Scathach tilted her head in confusion: "Why would I think that?"

"...That's okay."

Rhodes said to Scathach: "Then let's go, Master."

"Wait."

"What's wrong."

"Don't call me Master today." Scathach held her chin and said thoughtfully.

Rhodes frowned: "What are you doing? Are you making trouble again?"

One moment she admitted that I was her disciple, and the next moment she told me not to call her master. So, older women are really troublesome...

"No, that's not what I meant."

Scathach raised her eyebrows and said with a happy expression: "Didn't you tell me to be careful and hide my identity here? Then don't call me Master anymore.

From this moment on, I am no longer Scathach from the Kingdom of Shadows, but just an ordinary tourist in London."

That makes sense, Rod asked, "So what should I call you, ma'am?"

Scahha held her chin and frowned for a moment, then she blurted out what she had dreamed of this morning.

"Well, Rod, just call me Usaha."

……

……

……

More than three hours' drive southwest of London, there is a small town called Glastonbury.

This small town, with a permanent population of less than 10,000, is well-known for being the site of King Arthur's tomb.

In the legend of the Knights of the Round Table, although King Arthur died on the sword rail, he left behind anecdotes such as "King once, and king again", and "the eternal king who existed in the past and resurrected in the future".

People firmly believed that King Arthur was not really dead, and that he would return in triumph with his army, holding the holy sword, and protecting his kingdom from invasion forever.

After the fall of King Arthur and his kingdom, the Saxons occupied the island of Britain, named the island England, meaning "the land of the Angles", and began their rule over the Welsh.

The Welsh people of this period firmly believed that the great king would be resurrected and defeat the foreign kings who oppressed them. With this belief, they did not submit to the rule of the rulers.

Therefore, Henry II of the Plantagenet dynasty believed that as long as he found King Arthur's tomb, he could make the Welsh give up their fantasies.

At this time, someone told Henry II that King Arthur might be buried in Glastonbury, where there was a very ancient monastery.

Henry then ordered the local abbot to search for the tomb.

Decades later, the abbot found what they had been looking for.

A slab of stone and a cross, on which was engraved the words "The illustrious King Arthur lies buried in the Isle of Avalon."

Digging deeper, they also unearthed skeletons suspected to be those of King Arthur and his queen Guinevere.

Looking back now, it is hard not to suspect that this was an archaeological fraud perpetrated by the abbot.

In order to make the monastery a tourist attraction and increase revenue, he even forged a grave, which can be said to be very sincere.

In addition to the most famous Glastonbury, which also appears in the Fate animation, there are several cemeteries in Britain and even France that are claimed to be the tomb of King Arthur.

There is even a work created on a whim by the Black Madonna Morgan le Fay...that is Grey's hometown, Blackmoor Village.

Rod's destination today is to visit King Arthur's tomb in Glastonbury to pay respect to his pregnant wife.

He wanted to pray for the safety of mother and child by visiting their graves.

This unprecedented practice has kept both superstitious and non-superstitious people silent.

After leaving the hotel, Rhodes did not go to the train station but took Scathach to the shopping mall parking lot across the street from the hotel.

"Rod."

Scathach suddenly spoke up: "Is my outfit today weird? Doesn't it conform to the standards of this era?

A lot of people have been staring at me since a while ago."

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Rhodes turned to look at the woman beside him.

Before leaving the hotel, she changed her outfit.

Unlike her usual tight clothes, the Queen of Shadow Kingdom wore a neatly cut purple-red blouse, a knitted jacket on the outside, and a black long skirt on the bottom.

This set of clothes was sent by the servants of the El-Melloi family by Lanis. They were all high-end luxury brands that Rhodes couldn't even name.

Scathach, dressed in a modern dress, exudes a dignified, graceful and elegant temperament, which is really hard to associate with the mythical female warrior.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was a model for a street photo shoot, if we didn't consider the handcuffs that locked her and Rod together.

However, the handcuffs themselves are a special magic rite equivalent to the gate of the Kingdom of Shadows, which are obviously invisible to ordinary people.

In the eyes of ordinary passers-by, there should only be a tall and beautiful woman who looks youthful and beautiful and a beautiful boy from the East walking side by side.

"There's nothing wrong with the outfit, it's just clothing from this era."

Rhodes looked around the street and said, "It's your illusion. No one is watching you."

"No, there is."

Scathach said affirmatively: "There have been many people secretly staring at me since just now. I can 'feel' the sight of everyone within 200 meters around me. This is one of my perception abilities."

Rhodes was surprised and said, "…Is this true?"

Scathach said seriously: "For example, from the time we left the hotel until now, Rod stared at my chest three times and stared at my butt..."

"Please stop talking." Rhodes interrupted her with trembling lips.

"I'm just stating the facts. Rhode is a man after all, and I understand your feelings. Even if you have female sexual desire for me, there's nothing you can do about it.

A man's lust for a woman, when used properly, can become a driving force for power, and I think that's remarkable.

But if you indulge in lust too much, you will just be a vulgar and inferior person. Well, Rhodes, you are undoubtedly one of the former."

When saying this, Scathach's expression showed neither sarcasm nor shyness, and she seemed to be very tolerant of his behavior.

I really don't need this kind of tolerance, Rod thought bitterly.

Her expression was like that of an elder praising a younger generation, which made people feel a little embarrassed.

However, after Scathach's reminder, it seemed that many people had been secretly looking over here since just now.

Maybe it was because when he lived in Tokyo, he was already used to the feeling of being stared at with envy by passers-by when he went shopping with cute girls, so he had already treated the gazes of passers-by as air and automatically filtered them out.

However, Scathach, who has lived alone in the Shadow Kingdom for thousands of years, obviously cannot adapt to the feeling of being the center of attention, so she feels uncomfortable.

"You'll get used to it, because the Master's appearance is too attractive for mortals."

"Yeah……"

Scathach nodded as if accepting it and smiled: "I am too beautiful... Hehe, is this what you think, Rhode?

Thank you. But that is not true.”

"What's not right?"

"It's not just me who attracts passers-by, it's you too."

Scathach looked at the young man beside her, her charming red eyes flowing like mellow red wine.

"Rod, you never seem to notice that it's not just the women around you that attract the attention of passers-by, but also yourself.

The presence and natural charm that emanates from you naturally make you attract countless people's attention no matter what you do.

No matter how repressed you are, you are always attracting everyone who passes you."

"Is... that so?" Rhodes asked suspiciously.

“It is not a virtue to be ignorant of oneself.”

Scathach smiled happily: "You have changed a lot. If it were you in the past, you would definitely say, 'I am the best individual in the world, this is natural, right!'

Well, you are more like a human being now than before..."

She has also become more attractive than before, she said in a low voice.

This is probably because Rhodes possesses three completely opposite aspects: divinity, devilism, and humanity.

Because of this, Rod, who is a transcendent like Scathach, is not as lonely as her. He is always surrounded by like-minded companions and lovers who are loyal to him until death.

Rhodes was like a brightly colored honey-flavored poison. Even though he knew it was poisonous, he couldn't help but want to taste it.

Even an undead like Scathach who had long since given up lust and emotions... was not immune to this.

"Oh... Really? Thanks."

Rhodes scratched his cheek sheepishly.
