"H-He really did it...?"
"A-Ah...."
Azazel, Mephisto and Tannin were dumbfounded after seeing the geometric circle of purple-black flames fade away and in front of Rey was an unidentified woman wielding a red spear!
A moment later, Rey fell unconscious and the woman then realized someone else was here. The woman turned towards Azazel and the others.
".... Who are you?"
Noticing that woman was staring at them, Azazel and the others got goosebumps feeling the immense and sharp pressure from the woman's aura as well as the threat from the red spear in her hand! They felt that they wouldn't be able to put up much resistance if they fought that woman!
Then, Azazel with slightly nervous and tense introduced himself.
"M-My name is Azazel. Leader of the Fallen Angel and the Grigori."
Then he also introduced Mephisto and Tannin.
"This is Mephisto Pheles. Old devil."
Azazel said while pointing at Mephisto who was next to him. Then Azazel also pointed at the small dragon hovering near Mephisto's shoulder, Tannin.
"And that dragon is Tannin. The former Dragon King."
After Azazel finished introducing them, the woman observed them with a gaze that was still cold but also curious.
"Hmm.... Never heard."
Azazel could only smile wryly at the woman's words.
Then, still a little awkward, Azazel spoke again.
"Ehh.... Can we get closer? We have to check that boy's condition."
Hearing Azazel's request, the woman realized Rey who was lying unconscious. The woman looked at Rey with a slight frown and then she gave a small nod to Azazel.
Seeing the woman nodded slightly allowing her to come closer, Azazel approached Rey who was lying and checked his condition.
Then, while Azazel checked Rey's condition, the woman asked her again.
".... What is this place? How did I suddenly get here?"
"This is the testing ground in my private laboratory. And you're here because this kid summoned you."
Hearing Azazel's answer, the woman looked a little surprised and questioned.
"This child is summon me? How can he?"
"Ehh.... How shall I put it.... It's quite long and complicated."
"Just make it short."
"Shortly.... this kid has an ability that allows him to summon things from another world."
".... Another world?"
"Right...."
Azazel smiled wryly.
The woman frowned and felt like stabbing Azazel with her red spear for saying something absurd like 'another world'. But, she also saw that Azazel didn't seem to be talking nonsense.
".... Why did he summon me?"
The woman asked again.
Then Azazel gave the answer.
"This kid wants to be strong. That's why he needs a figure that can train him and protect him. And with that unwavering hope, using the special ability he had he managed to summon you."
Shortly thereafter, Azazel finished checking Rey's condition and he then nodded slightly at Mephisto to indicate Rey was fine. He concluded Rey had just collapsed from exhaustion and would be able to recover and regain consciousness after enough rest.
Then, Azazel looked at the woman and spoke.
"If you are not reluctant, we will explain more about everything after taking this child to the treatment room, Lady ..."
".... Scathach. That's my name."
◼️
◼️
A few hours later....
After taking Rey to the treatment room to be allowed to rest, Azazel and the others including the woman that Rey summoned from another world, Scathach, sat down and talked.
Azazel tells who Rey is and everything about him to Scathach. Azazel also told Scathach various things about this world. This includes about factions, mythologies, histories, Sacred Gears, etc.
".... I understand now.... It's been over two thousand years and civilizations are very different. In addition there are some things that are quite the same but some are quite different from the world I came from and the times I know."
Scathach came to her conclusion after listening to all the explanations from Azazel and the others.
Azazel then nodded slightly.
"That's right.... Incidentally, [Scathach] is also exist in this world. But as far as we know she died thousands of years ago. She is the mentor of heroes like Cu Chulainn."
Azazel compared Scathach with [Scathach] from this world.
Scathach was a little surprised at the familiar pupil's name. But then she shook her head in deny to what Azazel said.
".... I believe I am different from the [Scathach] of this world. Because I have become a Divine Spirit or what you call a God. Because I am a Divine Spirit is why I am still alive today and neither die nor grow old. Meanwhile [Scathach] who used to exist in this world was only a human or maybe what you call a demigod."
"Then.... Scathach-dono is a goddess...?"
".... You can say that."
Azazel and the others were quite surprised to see Scathach nodded slightly and confessed that she was a goddess! It was true that they had heard that a low-existence could rise to a divine-existence. But as far as they know it is very difficult to achieve!
Then the three of them inwardly smiled wryly at the thought of the reaction of the mythological faction, especially the Celts, if they found out about Scathach.
Then, Azazel stared at the red spear in Scathach's hand.
"Next.... May we ask about your red spear, Scathach-dono?"
Hearing Azazel ask about his red spear, Scathach then nodded slightly and explained.
".... This is Gae Bolg Alternative. You could say this is Gae Bolg's twin spear or copy. But still, this is different than Gae Bolg."
Azazel was very surprised to hear about Scathach's red spear! He surely have heard about Cu Chulainn's Gae Bolg spear which is said to be irrevocable once it stabs its victim!
"Does Scathach-dono have any particular powers?"
Azazel asked again curiously.
Scathach nodded slightly and answered.
".... Should be, I am able to open the gate to the gathering place for the dark/death spirits called the Land of Shadows, but somehow I can't do it now. Maybe because this world is indeed another world different from my original world.... Besides that, I've also mastered the use of the Primordial Rune."
"Primordial Rune? What is that? Could you please show us a little?"
Then Scathach shows a little of her Primordial Rune ability.
And after seeing the rune, Mephisto felt like it was familiar.
"That is.... Similar to Norse Magic?"
As a chairman of a magic ȧssociation, Mephisto certainly knows a lot about various types of magic including Norse Magic.
Hearing Mephisto's impression of the Primordial Rune that Scathach was showing, Azazel seemed to think for a moment until then he seemed to nod as if he remembered something.
"Hm.... I remember that there were some who thought that [Scathach] and [Skadi] were actually the same figure. So, it is possible that Scathach-dono's rune does have a lot of similarities with Norse Magic because of their connected origins.... Does Scathach-dono have any other abilities?"
After giving his impression of the Primordial Rune, Azazel asked again.
However, this time Scathach seemed to frown and glared slightly.
".... Haven't you asked too many questions? Do you want to find out my weaknesses too?"
Scathach asked back in a cold voice.
Realizing that Scathach was starting to feel uncomfortable and suspicious, Azazel rushed to deny it!
"N-Not at all! We wouldn't dare! We were just curious! It doesn't matter if Scathach-dono doesn't want to answer! Right?"
Azazel turned to Mephisto and Tannin to help him and they nodded.
"Hmph.... I have a constitution that makes it easier for me to kill Divine Spirits. I got it after I don't know how many Divine Spirits I exterminated."
After hearing Scathach's answer, Azazel nervously confirmed his conclusion.
"S-So Scathach-dono can slay gods...?"
".... Yes. Satisfied?"
"L-Looks like we have to be careful to not make Scathach-dono have a reason to slay us out. Ahahaha...."
Azazel laughed stiffly and got goosebumps and cold sweat knowing that Scathach is a Godslayer! Mephisto and Tannin also felt the same way. They were worried that if someone offended Scathach, then chaos could occur in this world!

When I opened my eyes, I realized that I, Rey, was lying down and in the treatment room.
Then, I saw someone else here. I saw a woman with long reddish-purple hair leaning back in a chair near the window.
"You...."
".... I'm Scathach. I've heard about you from them.... And it's been seven days since you've been unconscious."
"A-Ah...."
Ah.... I remember now. This woman, Scathach, is the one who was summoned after using Balance-Breaker X from my Sacred Gear. And from the inputs of information I got, she is a mentor of heroes and she was an existence that can kill gods!
Scathach-sama then slightly raised one arm and showed three fingers and said to me.
".... 3 years. I, Scathach, will train you for three years.... During the first six months, you must first strengthen your physique. The next six months, I will teach you the basics of spear martial arts. Then, for a year you will begin to learn spear fighting techniques and practice mastering them. And finally, for a year, I will teach you to use Rune Magic. After those three years are over, you have to be independent and develop yourself.... Understand?"
Hearing Scathach-sama's statement that she wanted to train me, I was quite surprised and glad too!
Then I firmly answered.
"Yes!"
Scathach-sama nodded slightly.
".... Good. I won't hold back while training you. I hope you don't whɨnė later."
