Even at this moment, Ian fully understood this truth.

"really--"

"why not?"

It has to be said that there are actually tricks to extracting magic power - especially when it comes to extracting magic power for the milk that Jack the Ripper longed for.

Ian could clearly feel that after he and Scathach interlocked their fingers, the speed at which magic power was collected was much faster than at the beginning.

"Scathach..."

"Shh-"

Scathach, her face flushed, stopped the man from speaking.

"Stop talking and kiss me."

"..."

What else can be refuted?

It's so straightforward, so I naturally can't pretend that I don't understand anything.

then--

The huge room soon became a place for Ian and Scathach to dance.

The two looked at each other, with only each other's figure in their eyes.

but……

For some reason, Ian always felt that Scathach seemed to be guiding the direction of his dance intentionally or unintentionally.

Does she have any intentions?

Before the man had time to think about it.

Scathach took his hand and began to spin wildly in the room.

Since they both knew how to use a spear, they naturally understood how to maintain a balance between each other.

"Ian, how many 'positive' characters do you plan to leave behind tonight?"

"I can keep as much as you want."

"is it?"

"Yes, no doubt about it."

Spin.

fly.

As Scathach's breathing became as fluttering as the wind, she gently wrapped herself around the man, like a nimble green snake.

There was a snap.

Ian discovered that she had brought him to...

In front of the wardrobe!

"call--"

Scathach looked at the man in front of her with a slightly red face, and even spoke as if she was drunk.

But Ian could feel that her thinking was clearer than at the beginning.

"I can keep up—"

"Ian, your skills haven't gotten any worse."

"Of course." The man suppressed his inner restlessness. "This is something you gave me. I will never forget it no matter what."

"It's a pity it's not the same as before."

Scathach wrapped her arms around the man's neck.

"It's different from before—how is it different?"

"The place behind me is different."

Scathach took off the device that had extracted enough magic power and put it aside.

The wedding dress designed by Tamamonomae was also properly placed in a suitable place by her, and it was absolutely impossible for it to be contaminated.

"Ian Pendragon."

"There's a girl hiding in the closet behind me, right?"

"..."

Ian's eyes widened slightly.

He didn't expect that after such a long time, the Queen of Shadow Kingdom still revealed this fact.

"Scathach, when did you know?"

“I noticed it as soon as I came in.”

Scathach said with a look of complete control.

"Such a strong flow of magic power—I haven't opened the cabinet door to confirm what she's doing yet, but I can probably figure it out."

"..."

"Why don't you say it?" Ian was a little puzzled.

"Why tell them that—it won't stop them from doing it, will it?"

"It's better..."

Scathach skillfully used Ian as the Gae Bolg Alternative and then "climbed" up easily.

With her feet dangling in the air, she stood slightly higher than the man and hugged his head.

"Isn't it more meaningful to prove my status in front of her like this?"

"As long as I'm around, they have to hide from me... No matter how you look at it, this is better than exposing them directly, right?"

"..."

Ian found that he seemed to have underestimated Scathach's jealousy.

She...maybe cares more about this competition than you think.

However, this also made the man suddenly think of something.

"Scathach, your research in magic is quite impressive, right?"

"That's natural."

"That--"

Ian looked at the cabinet behind her.

"Can you help me...see through some magic trick?"

767. Scathach and Ian's Performance / Only Audience Mashu (4k)

"Saw through the magic...?"

Scathach, who thought Ian was the Gae Bolg Alternative, just "stood" on him.

Those deep purple eyes stared straight at the man, without even the slightest intention of looking away.

"Do you... have any reason to do this?"

"Have."

Ian looked at the wardrobe behind the Queen of Shadow Kingdom.

Just as Scathach herself said, there was indeed a strong smell of magic wafting from it. Although it was not easy to identify, it was very obvious.

"Scathach, the one in the closet is Mash."

"Mashu..."

Scathach frowned slightly, and it was obvious that she was recalling the name Ian mentioned.

"Oh...is that the pink-haired girl who's been secretly watching you from the corner?"

"Yes." Ian nodded, confirming Scathach's statement.

"It is indeed her—the 'audience' who is listening to us do this now."

"..."

Almost the moment Ian confirmed his identity, Scathach showed almost synchronized relaxation.

"So it's her... I thought it was some greedy little cat that stole some fish."

"Why do you seem to have no desire to fight at all?"

"Because they really aren't enemies." Scathach was as straightforward as ever, and it was obvious that she didn't consider Mash an opponent. "She...was deliberately avoiding me the first time she saw me, wasn't she?"

"I've wanted to ask her several times why she did this, but I never got the chance—and now you've caught me."

"..."

Ian didn't expect Scathach to have such an idea.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not really that strange.

Scathach has few friends in Chaldea, so she is naturally more likely to notice such secret things than others, especially since Mash often cannot control herself and is easily discovered.

"so--"

Scathach put her arms around the man's neck and blew warm air gently into his ears.

"Is she the one you want me to identify?"

"..."

"Yeah." Ian confirmed everything with a nod.

Yes.

Although Scathach is nominally the Queen of Shadow Kingdom, she is also very proficient in the use of the Gae Bolg Alternative, and is truly the Queen of Spears.

But in addition to these two identities, she also has a more important and more hidden "attribute".

That is-

magician.

As someone who possesses the Nordic magic runes, she has a wealth of knowledge about magic.

And because of her own peculiarity (actually, the immortal body she gained by slaying gods), the runes she possesses are completely different from the runes that modern magicians talk about.

It is a magic seal discovered by the Norse god Odin, and it is unique in the world.

Now in Scathach's hands, they will become the cornerstone for the queen to explore the mysteries of magic.

"I always feel like you have other intentions."

Scathach looked at the man in front of her, her bangs drooping slightly, and her expression looked quite complicated.

But in the end, she did not reject Ian's request, but said more proactively:

"Then let me try it—the magic trick you want me to see through."

"I'd like to know what in this world could possibly embarrass the husband I choose."

"That……"

"Eh--"

Scathach stopped Ian's hand that was about to put her down, and spoke deliberately.

"If you want me to help, you can't let me go. Otherwise, won't it seem like I'm being casual?"

"Just hold me like this and let her see it?"

"you……"
