Chapter 108 Scathach's Kingly Way
Gilles de Rais was mad, since the death of his saint, Joan of Arc, the love of whom he poured all his affections.

He cursed the gods, he studied black magic, he became "Bluebeard", and sacrificed children in order to resurrect and save his saint.

This madness did not change until he was promoted to the Hall of Valor after his death and became a Heroic Spirit.Now, the "Holy Maiden" he is obsessed with has been resurrected. Although he is still blinded by the "God" in his eyes and mind, he will not give up, and he will definitely rescue his Holy Maiden.

Even if he was hindered by the "god's lackey" Assassin and the annoying Lancer, he never thought of giving up.

Not once, twice.

Not twice, three times.

One day, he will rescue his saint, and the two will live happily together.

Tonight, he launched his "rescue" operation again.

The opportunity that prompted him to take action was an accidental surveillance.Since he was negligent last time and Assassin found the workshop and broke it violently, he often used the "clairvoyance" magic to monitor the situation in the city, so as not to be approached by other servants without knowing it.

In the evening, he activated his "Clairvoyance" as usual, and accidentally caught the carefree and undisguised Rider.

Staring at Rider for a while, Caster was surprised to find that Assassin and Rider collided, and soon Archer also appeared. The three servants walked, chatted, and studied modern means of transportation like three modern people.

Although Caster couldn't understand the behavior of the three, he knew that the three would not cause trouble for him for the time being. Berserker and his Master focused on eliminating the monsters he left in the underground waterway, so there was no need to worry.

The remaining Lancer, Caster has figured out his details, even if he gets in the way again, Caster will not be afraid.

Just in case, prepare more "soldiers" and attack from the opposite direction from the day before yesterday.

Tonight, Gilles de Rais must rescue Joan of Arc.

If Caster had waited an extra half an hour until the three servants were speeding towards the Einzbern Forest, he would definitely have given up on this idea - unfortunately not if.

"me?"

Called by Rider, Scathach looked up at the night sky. Her eyes were not focused on a certain part of the starry sky, but looked farther away, as if she wanted to see through the sky to see the outside of the world outside the realm, and she was depressed. The magnetic sound became ethereal.

"Do you want to ask the king? Or wish?"

"desire!"

"Kingdom!"

Two voices sounded almost at the same time, the former was Rider, the latter was Saber, the different choices showed the different personalities of the two.

Scathach looked at Rider, then at Saber, and chuckled lightly.

"Let's start with Saber's question, after all she and I are from Celtic."

"Before explaining the kingly way, let me say something first. My 'Kingdom of Shadows' is different from any human country. I am not in charge of the living, but the dead. Is this okay?"

"Of course, it would be better to say that this arouses my curiosity." Rider smiled and raised his glass to Scathach. Although Saber did not possess it, he had the same attitude.

Skaha took a sip of wine in response: "My kingly way is very simple, that is 'order' and 'power'. 'Order' is the rules set by heaven and earth, the world, and the planet, and 'power' is ' 'order' and the safeguards that define what lies beyond 'order'."

"Life and death are separated, the living should not step into the world of the dead, and the dead should not step into the world of the living. This is the rule set by the world. 'The Land of Shadows' used to have a name called 'Eternal Spring Land' (Tírnanóg) as well" The origin of the term "Demonland". One of my earliest responsibilities was to guide the spirits of the war dead and those who died on the journey to the 'Land of Everspring'."

"However, you all know that in the era when the myths have not faded, the boundary between life and death is not so clear. The living disturb the peace of the dead, and the dead disturb the life of the living and other things happen from time to time. Archer, you You also have the experience of going to the country of the dead."

Archer gave a "hmm" as an answer, and Rider also showed a "sure" expression. It seemed that Scathach's information confirmed his thoughts. Only Saber, Irisviel, and Weber were at a loss.

"So, I use my power to separate the living and the dead. The dead who intend to step into the kingdom of the living are captured or completely destroyed, and the living who step into the kingdom of the dead are expelled or become a member of the dead. Over time,' Yongchun The name of "Earth" was gradually replaced by "Kingdom of Shadows", and I also became the queen of "Kingdom of Shadows", ruling the kingdom of the dead with power."

"However, I will give them a chance for those brave men who have made up their minds and took stepping into the kingdom of the dead as a challenge. After all, at that time, the 'Demon Realm' was still a part of the present world, and those real brave men also showed their corresponding abilities." strength'."

"This is my 'kingdom'—rather than saying that I am a king, maybe the title 'gatekeeper' is more suitable for me."

From the beginning to the end, Scathach was very calm, like a pool of stagnant water. She fully understood her responsibilities and carried them through to this day. No matter what others said, she would not be shaken in any way.

"What a boring experience." Archer rarely spoke in a tone of sarcasm with a sigh.

"Follow your own path unswervingly, you are as good a king as Archer."

"Thank you for everything you do for order."

Both Rider and Saber gave Scathach a very high evaluation, and the former added another sentence.

"Then what about the wish? Is it related to your 'Royal Way'?"

"No, there is no connection." Scathach sighed, "Rider, my wish and your wish are essentially the same. You hope to live in this world as a human being. And I hope to be able to live in this world as a human being." Identity dies."

For this wish, the three kings all expressed obvious shock.

"As I said, I use my strength to separate life and death, and to seal the Kingdom of Shadows. This process is not smooth, and many living people are unwilling to accept such a result. They may be out of emotion, or for other purposes. , wants to take away the souls of the dead, and many of the dead are unwilling to accept the fact that they are dead, and want to return to the world of the living. There are many gods, beasts, monsters, fantasy species, demons, wraiths, etc. with powerful power The presence."

"I confronted them, fought, and killed them. The body soaked in the blood of the enemy became eternal. Not the living, not the dead, not gods, not humans, not aging, and losing the concept of death .”

"I can no longer die, whether it is a beautiful death or an ugly death. But I still clearly remember that I was born as a human being, so I long to die as a human being."

"If the Holy Grail is really omnipotent, I hope it can bring the person who can kill me to me."

Where is the man who can kill me?
The answer to this question has been sought by Scathach for millennia.
