"During this time... I am doing a job transfer mission, and I need to defeat a very powerful monster. However, I really can't defeat it, so I want to learn some sword skills and try to see if I can win."
"..."
Listening to this, Taiga was stunned for a while, thought of a possibility, and asked with a slight trembling, "...Illya... You are actually playing virtual reality, right?!"
"Virtual reality... probably."
Illya thought for a moment and nodded slightly. He felt that these words were very appropriate. In the dream, except for 'Rose Maiden', which is a real creation, the rest of the existences are false existences. Even if they are killed, they will be refreshed after a while.
"That Illya... can you play with 'teacher' for a while?"
Taiga's eyes Gilgamesh are shining like two light bulbs. Which boy... no, even girls want to try that kind of adventurous life in another world. Who has not had the dream of Princess defeating the devil.
"Okay, it's not difficult to add one more person."
Irisviel suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile, "In this way, Illya's kendo learning can also be learned in dreams. It's really the best of both worlds."
"Hey... can I add anyone as I please?"
Illya was slightly startled, then nodded again. "But... this way I can spend more time practicing sword skills."
"No, since you can learn swordsmanship in dreams."
Irisviel shook his head, his red eyes were oppressive. "Then Illya, you should go do your homework. Being lazy is not advisable."
"... Hey~"
Illya let out a small cry.
Chapter 320: Looking for a teacher?
The moon and stars are sparse.
On the outskirts of London, in the courtyard of a quaint castle.
Remilia pursed his lips slightly, holding a long spear for practice, looking at Touko across from him, and said softly, "Father, it's impossible for me to beat you anyway. This kind of training is unnecessary."
Tonight... she will practice fighting against her father again, to polish and change her overly direct fighting habits, and to correct the habits accumulated in past battles.
Frankly speaking, she would be very happy if she could practice against her father alone. After all, this was a rare close interaction between father and daughter.
However, before the battle even started, most of the castle's servants had already gathered in the courtyard. Some people even opened the windows and poked their heads out to watch, obviously hoping to witness her fight with her father.
For some reason, Mother did not drive them away and allowed them to stop what they were doing to watch the battle.
However, one thing that can be foreseen is that with her current ability, she has no chance of defeating her father. The battle process can be predicted, and the battle will end with an almost playful attitude.
And such a result... she would feel very ashamed in front of the servants.
Therefore, she was somewhat reluctant to engage in combat training.
"The accumulated experience of adversity...is often the most effective catalyst for growth."
Aozaki Touko shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "Remy... As the ruler of the Dead Apostles in the future, you must have corresponding power. In the future... my mother and I cannot always be by your side."
As she said this, her eyes became slightly serious.
"Whether it's mind or strength, you have to grow until you are worthy of the name 'Brunestud'."
After saying that, she pulled out a long gun from Reality Marble and prepared to start educating her daughter.
In fact, even if Remilia only relies on talent without any training, the blood of the true ancestor will give her powerful power in the future and stand at the top of this planet's combat power.
Although it is not as powerful as... Arcueid and other wall-mounted ones, it is indeed enough to suppress Dead Apostle.
However, this is obviously not enough for Altrouge, the biological mother. She hopes that her daughter will be stronger in the future and be able to protect herself better. This is Altrouge's mother's care.
Therefore, Altrouge specifically asked her to train her daughter, hoping to change Remilia's overly arrogant fighting style and minimize some of Remilia's weaknesses.
Well... As for why Altrouge didn't personally educate his daughter, it was actually because Altrouge was not willing to beat his precious daughter.
As for Arcueid... she relies more on the talent of her true ancestor to survive and fight. It is even more unrealistic to teach Remilia, which will only make Remilia go further and further.
In short, in a nutshell, it was time for her to fulfill her duties as a strict father.
"... I know!"
Remilia's eyes became serious, he picked up the spear and made an offensive stance.
When she heard that she had inherited the name of 'Brunestud', her motivation, which had almost subsided, surged back to full strength. Her strong sense of family honor made her feel like she was capable of anything.
Even my father is not incapable of fighting.
"Nice look."
Aozaki Touko nodded with satisfaction and raised his fingers at his daughter. "Come on, there is no need to have any scruples. As long as you can touch me a little bit, Remy, you will win."
"Meet?"
Remilia's eyes lit up, and his delicate little face smiled confidently, "Although I can't defeat Father, as long as I touch you a little, there will be no problem!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped hard on the ground with her little feet, and the solid stone bricks immediately cracked and exploded. In an instant, her petite body arrived in front of Aozaki Touko, and she pierced the air with a sharp shot.
There is no doubt that this blow can penetrate even steel.
"Pa~"
Aozaki Touko casually raised the spear in his hand and deflected Remilia with a sharp blow. At the same time, Remilia held the spear tightly in his hand and shook it away, sending it flying into the air and spinning continuously.
"Too straightforward, Remy~"
With a cold tone, Aozaki Touko held up the spear in his hand. In Remilia's surprised eyes, he dropped it fiercely and slapped it on Remilia's petite body, so that Remilia would remember the education through physical pain.
It's cruel, but for Remilia, who has the true ancestor bloodline, it is just a minor injury that is innocuous. In fact, it will not leave any injuries, only some pain.
This is the resilience of True Ancestor level beings... being able to survive countless dangerous battles, turning the pain left behind into experience, and into techniques to enhance one's own combat effectiveness.
Therefore, there is no reason to stop this attack.
However, the next moment.
"Hey~"
Remilia squatted down quickly, hugged her head hurriedly, and let out a cry of panic. She was frightened by her father's stern look, and forgot all her original coping methods... She actually did not choose to retreat.
"..."
Aozaki Touko's spear did not fall, she just looked at her daughter with a subtle expression, although she knew that the spear should be wielded harshly, so that Remilia could use the pain to gain experience.
However, she was a little reluctant to... beat her daughter.
"...?"
Remilia crouched with her head in her arms for a while, and found that the originally coming blow had not yet landed. So, she raised her head slightly cautiously, and found that her father had already put down the spear, and looked at her with some meaning.
"Remy... she's so cute."
Aozaki Touko smiled uncontrollably, knelt down and looked at his daughter, and said in a soft voice, "Such a cute Remy, how can my father be willing to beat you?"
"Cute?"
Remilia blinked her eyes in confusion, and soon she noticed something strange about herself. Such childish and fearful actions should not be made by her Princess. Wouldn't it be very detrimental to the majesty of her 'Brunestud' family.
Feeling a little desperate, she stood up and looked at the Dead Apostle servants around her, and found that everyone was looking at her with doting eyes. Some women even had their eyes Gilgamesh shining, and they had a tendency to rush over and hug her.
At the same time she also heard something like.
"Princess, so cute."
"Yeah, it's so cute. I really want to give it a hug."
"Oh my, I didn't expect Princess to have this side."
"After all, Princess is still young."
At this moment, something seemed to be broken.
Remilia stood up with a red face, pointed at all the Dead Apostles present, and said angrily, "You all forget what happened just now, or I will deduct all your salary for this month!"
"Yes~"
Dead Apostle present agreed in unison.
"Hmph, that's good."
Remilia hummed, stood up and patted her skirt.
On the side, Aozaki Touko had no intention of continuing to teach. She found that she seemed to be similar to Altrouge. It was a bit difficult to teach with determination, but it was not impossible.
"Remy... do you want a great teacher?"
She asked while looking at her daughter with a smile.
"A great teacher?"
Remilia is a little curious.
"Well... she is a woman who has killed many gods and taught many heroes. If Remi learns from her well, she will definitely become very powerful."
Chapter 321 Queen of the Land of Shadow
"... Father, is this Land of Shadow?"
Remilia's little hand held Aozaki Touko's hand, and her red eyes looked curiously at everything around her. She was in an area where there was almost no life, and the smell of loneliness and death filled every corner.
The sky is covered by thick black clouds, and the light can only seize the fleeting opportunity to shine on the earth.
And under the light of that fleeting light, one can see that the surface is covered with dry rocks, and the lifeless wind blows through the gaps between the rocks, making a low cry like the undead.
This scene... is appropriately called a foreign magical realm.
"Well... if nothing else happens."
Aozaki Touko nodded slightly and looked at the castle in the distance. "This is the kingdom of the dead. The person who controls this kingdom is the queen named...Scathach. She is a very powerful person and is known as the hero mentor. In terms of educational ability, if you put it on Greek mythology... that is the level of the hero mentor Chiron."
She took her daughter's hand and walked toward the castle.
"However, Scathach's education is a bit special... Remi can give up if she can't bear it."
She is actually not very keen on raising her daughter to become a strong person. As long as Remilia's three views remain normal and do not become some paranoid psychosis... then she is actually satisfied.
As for strength... Her current strength is enough to resist most dangers in the world.
There is nothing wrong with just protecting the safety of his daughter.
"Give up... Father, please don't underestimate me."
Remilia pouted with some dissatisfaction. Except for the fact that she was recently crushed by her father due to her strength, she was always very fast at learning anything. As a true ancestor, she... had a very outstanding genius.
No matter how difficult it is to learn... it's actually not too difficult for her.
This is the result of her past experiences that have fostered her unparalleled self-confidence.
"Don't be so complacent... Besides, they might not be willing to accept you as their apprentice."
Aozaki Touko glanced at his proud daughter and said teasingly.
"Apprenticeship... Is there anyone still coming in this era?"
Not far away, a pleasant voice sounded slightly sighing.
Then, the queen of this kingdom appeared.
She was a woman with an unparalleled sense of presence. She had long purple hair, a pair of strong and arrogant red eyes, a tall and delicate body wearing a purple tights, and holding a dark purple spear.
She stared at Aozaki Touko arrogantly and coldly, her red eyes burning with a trace of fighting spirit.
This woman who suddenly broke into Land of Shadow had a power that made her take seriously, which made her feel a sense of fighting spirit, but before that she still had to deal with some things.
Since someone who hadn't seen her for a long time came to her door to become a disciple... then she would naturally have to give him corresponding consideration.
As for combat... that can be considered later.
"You are... the coveted Master."
Aozaki Touko sighed with regret, "If I had the opportunity... I actually wanted to become your disciple. Unfortunately, I didn't have the ability to reach Land of Shadow at that time. When I have the ability, I won't need to become your disciple."
It's not a lie, if she traveled through the early period... she would definitely be willing to become a disciple of Scathach, and when she had the strength, she would have a jockey named Mizu. However, at the beginning, she was simply not able to find Land of Shadow... just an ordinary Magecraft master.
Now, as Magic User... there is no need to worship Scathach as a teacher.
"Compared to my teachings... you are more suitable to follow your own path."
Surprisingly, Scathach shook his head slightly and said bluntly, "If I were to teach you... I wouldn't necessarily let you grow to this point. This also shows that you should grow in your own way."
