"So this is the best room in Chaldea?"

"Eh?"

Ian vaguely guessed Scathach's thoughts and quickly said:

"Of course it's the best—even if it's not the best, it's one of the better ones."

"Don't worry, Scathach."

"Chaldea will never think of mistreating me. They need me, and I need them too."

"..."

Scathach said nothing.

Instead, he placed the Gae Bolg Alternative in his hand against the wall.

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows began to "examine" the room as if she was inspecting her own territory.

Whenever he saw her passing by the closet, Ian couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

after all……

Mashu is in a good mood, so maybe she can tell where it is by the smell right away.

But I don’t know if it was because Scathach didn’t look carefully, or for some other reason.

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows did not find Mashu's "hiding place" in the end, but sat on Ian's bed.

Her hand gently touched the white quilt, as if comparing something.

It was a long time before Scathach spoke again.

And this time, it is still a question with a very clear purpose.

"How does this quilt compare to the ones from Shadow Country?"

"Is the one from Shadow Country better, or the one from Chaldea?"

"..."

This is undoubtedly a fatal question.

Ian, a veteran of many battles, could still feel it.

As for how to answer, it depends on whether you speak differently to different people.

"If you want to compare prices, then of course the ones from Shadow Country are better."

"But Scathach, the quilt here..." Ian also sat on the bed and held Scathach's hand, "It's already the best that Chaldea can provide."

"Even if it really can't compare to the Kingdom of Shadows, I think it's already a token of Chaldea's sincerity."

"..."

"is it?"

Scathach gently turned sideways, and then fell directly on Ian.

Wearing a wedding dress, she has a unique charm when doing such movements.

"Ian, do you think I'm picking on Chaldea?"

"Of course not." Ian gently stroked Scathach's long hair, which was a bit bloody. "I don't think you are such a petty person - you are just worried that I don't have the same status in Chaldea as in the Shadow Kingdom, right?"

"But you can rest assured, Scathach - you should also feel that Chaldea is now completely under my 'control'."

"If you like, it's not impossible to arrange for it to be 'decorated' in the style of the Shadow Kingdom."

"Of course...it can only look like that. After all, if it really became like that, Chaldea would no longer exist."

"I'm not going to do the same thing as that childish Nero."

Scathach rejected Ian's arrangement almost without hesitation.

"The Land of Shadows is the Land of Shadows. There's no possibility of replicating it elsewhere. If that were the case, the boundary between life and death would be too cheap."

"Besides..."

Scathach hesitated to speak.

But Ian naturally wouldn't let her do that.

"Besides what?"

"Besides, the Shadow Kingdom should no longer exist now--" Scathach sighed deeply, and then some red light appeared in her hands.

Ian understood that it was a manifestation of the gathering of magical power.

And based on the images in his memory, the man even knew what the Noble Phantasm was.

"Is the Gate of Skye, a place overflowing with death, unable to be opened?" he asked.

"Yes."

Scathach nodded.

"Although this shouldn't happen, the fact is that what you call 'the burning of human principles' has clearly affected the Shadow Kingdom."

"Even if I don't like you staying in Chaldea, I have to let you stay."

"But...you were right about something you said just now."

Scathach turned her head, then held the man's cheek and kissed him gently.

After the warmth was conveyed to each other, she spoke again:

"I really don't want you to have no status in Chaldea."

"My man is the king of the Shadow Kingdom—so even outside of the Shadow Kingdom, he must be majestic."

"Of course."

"..."

"..."

Ian and Scathach just looked at each other and soon understood what to do next.

They came to Chaldea together and understood each other's feelings.

So……

Now is the time to prove it all.

but--

Accidents always happen at times like this.

Just as the man was about to do something with Scathach, the Queen of the Shadow Kingdom stood up first.

"This wedding dress is very beautiful, and it was designed for me by the girl named Tamamonomae. I can't get it dirty."

"I have to...put it in your closet."

"..."

Before the man could answer yes or no, Scathach was already ready to act - this was not difficult to understand, it was just a piece of clothing, what was so strange about it?

But for Ian, the situation was different.

Inside the closet...

But he was still hiding from the trembling Mashu!

"Wait a moment, Scathach!"

Ian grabbed the hand of the Queen of Shadow Kingdom.

"what happened?"

"Something happened!"

"what's the matter?"

"Uh……"

Ian's mind was racing - what could she do to help?

The man thought so, and then he noticed again the deep V-neck design on Tamamonomae's wedding dress specially designed for him.

correct……

Try that?!

"Scathach, lend me something."

"What to borrow?"

“…delicious milk.”

"what!"

766. Scathach's Love Milk/The Little Thoughts of the Queen of Shadow Country (4k)

"you……"

Scathach was stunned for a moment, and after confirming that she had heard correctly, she grasped the Gae Bolg Alternative and pointed it at Ian in front of her.

"Do you know what you are talking about!"

"How can you say this kind of thing at this time?"

Scathach thought that Ian would react after she said this.

But what she saw was the man's expression which remained unchanged - it was as if he was saying "I am discussing this matter with you seriously".

"Calm down?"

Ian asked.

"I can wait—until you're willing to listen to me."

"..."

Scathach temporarily put away the Gae Bolg Alternative, and then looked at Ian in front of her with confusion.

"so--"

"Do you think this kind of thing is reasonable?"

"It's not really reasonable." The man took the Gae Bolg Alternative from Scathach's hand and placed it on the bedside.

The Queen of the Shadow Kingdom has many weapons like this one, and this is just one of them.

"But I have reasons to say it."

"..."

Although Scathach has a cold temperament, she is not the type of person who completely ignores what others say.

Especially when Ian communicated with her in this manner, she knew it was time for her to listen carefully.

"Fine--"

"Let me hear what reasons you want to use to convince me."

Ever since——

A crisis of being caught cheating by Scathach was cleverly resolved by the man.

but……

This wasn't entirely a case of improvisation.

Ian did have some intention and wanted to ask Scathach to help him fulfill Jack the Ripper's "wish".

"Scathach, do you know Jack?"

"Jack?"

"Yeah." Ian nodded, "It's that little girl."

"..."

Scathach pursed her chin and thought seriously. It was obvious that she really wanted to understand Ian's words.
