Outside the window, a night breeze blew. Under the moonlight, a crow seemed to watch the room. Slowly, a cloud accompanied by a cold wind covered the moonlight, and the crow disappeared into the night.
"Until you have an answer, let's maintain our Shishou-disciple relationship."
In the room, Scathach looked at Asher, who still seemed deep in thought. Her finger traced his face. "Until you find the answer."
"Maintaining a Shishou-disciple relationship…" Asher murmured softly. "Lovers?"
"Oh?" Scathach narrowed her eyes, seriously gazing into Asher's eyes.
"Just asking, you wouldn't just like the illicit thrill of secretly being with your Shishou behind your sister's back, would you?"
So why would a seemingly serious Shishou think of something like this?!
Asher immediately felt his impression of Scathach collapse, then quickly shook his head. "I truly like Shishou, and it has nothing to do with our Shishou-disciple relationship."
"Love that's unrelated to the Shishou-disciple relationship?" Scathach repeated idly, crossing her legs. Her long, alluring legs, encased in purple stockings beneath her ball gown, were subtly revealed through the semi-transparent thin fabric.
"It should be called love, if we have to quibble over words," Asher thought seriously. "I love Shishou, and I love Scathach. I like both relationships very much."
Scathach's expression stiffened slightly. She crossed her other leg and looked at Asher, who had a serious expression. His fervent gaze seemed to melt people.
"Truly a disciple worth cherishing," Scathach murmured to herself, an involuntary sadistic smile—usually reserved for slaughtering enemies—appearing on her face.
"Shishou?" Asher looked confused, seemingly not expecting Scathach to show such an expression.
Ah… no good, I almost couldn't control myself and revealed another side.
In Asher's eyes, she had always been a caring older sister figure, serious with enemies and gentle with her own. But that depended on the situation.
Facing such a confession from her disciple and that loving gaze, even the most rational mind couldn't remain calm.
Scathach slowly calmed down. Under Asher's surprised gaze, she opened her arms and embraced him, pressing his head against her chest.
Scathach's hand gently stroked Asher's hair, feeling the warm embrace enveloping him. The familiar scent simply wafted into his nostrils with a gentle sniff, causing his heart to pound. Asher's mind suddenly went blank for a moment, and it took him a while to react.
What's going on? I haven't even answered that question, why did Shishou suddenly do this?
Asher was about to shift his body to adjust his position, but he was softly scolded by Scathach: "Don't move around. Just stay like this for now."
So, he had no choice but to remain in his original position and not move.
Scathach looked down at the boy in her arms, her eyes gleaming with an unusual light.
It seems I can't really scold my disciple… To feel excited after being confessed to by my own disciple, wishing to possess him immediately. Should I be happy about this, or should I reprimand myself?
One was enjoying the pleasant atmosphere, while the other was reflecting on herself, gently stroking her disciple's head to temporarily suppress her surging emotions.
Time slowly passed. After an unknown period, Scathach finally released Asher.
Feeling the warmth of the embrace leave, Asher felt an indescribable sense of loss in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it. He looked at Scathach, hesitated, and then asked, "Is it really okay, Shishou?"
"For Shishou to continue waiting for me until I give my answer."
"Of course," Scathach nodded, a hint of helplessness in her smile. "In fact, this is better."
At this point, Scathach knew she couldn't pretend to be clueless any longer. Asher's feelings for her were now completely out in the open, so she might as well face them honestly.
Not just Asher, she herself needed to calm down.
She was the Queen of the Land of Shadows. If she were to be romantically involved with her disciple, especially since he wasn't even an adult yet, her reputation as queen would likely plummet.
So, at the very least, she had to wait until he was an adult. Even if Asher gave an answer now, she couldn't publicly declare this matter.
And she still didn't know how to deal with the problem of Uathach.
Thinking of this, Scathach couldn't help but rub her temples, feeling a rare headache. Frankly, she would be happy if a battle could solve this problem, rather than dealing with something like this.
However, as for regret, it wasn't that. Her disciple had already taken the initiative. If she, as his Shishou, still hid and evaded, then she wouldn't be worthy of being Asher's Shishou.
Moreover, if she dragged this on any longer, her disciple would probably be completely consumed by Morgan le Fay before even returning to the Land of Shadows.
If one day Asher came back with a pregnant Morgan le Fay, and then heard that woman call her "mom"… the thought alone was enough to wipe the smile off her face.
At this thought, Scathach's gaze fell once more on Asher's neck. She spoke casually, "When I'm not around, you also need to know how to protect yourself, understand?"
"With Sister Morgan around, and the Knights of the Round Table, there won't be any problems. Don't worry, Shishou," Asher seemed to misunderstand Scathach's meaning and comforted his Shishou.
It's precisely because of Morgan that I'm not at ease… Scathach shook her head, not vocalizing her inner thoughts.

"You should go back now."
Hearing Scathach's words, Asher was stunned.
He had to go back so soon? He had just confirmed his Shishou's feelings; he still wanted to talk to her for a while longer. And there was one more thing he didn't know if he should tell his Shishou.
When he drew the Caliburn earlier, Morgan le Fay had placed a geis upon him: one was to draw the Caliburn, and the second was to marry Lily.
Now, the first oath had been fulfilled, but the second had not yet taken effect…
He himself didn't know what to do. Should he discuss with Lily about getting married and then separating, using this method to deceive the oath?
He also didn't know what "marrying Artoria" truly entailed.
Seeing Asher still standing motionless, Scathach glanced at him. "What's wrong? Did you confess to your Shishou and now you're impatiently wanting to possess her body?"
At the end of her sentence, Scathach crossed her other leg, her hands propped on the bed. Her delicate purple-stockinged feet, encased in high heels, swung casually, drawing one's gaze to follow them back and forth.
"Do you really have such thoughts?" Seeing Asher still standing there, Scathach scrutinized him again, her eyes revealing a dangerous glint like a beast preying on small animals. "Let me warn you, if you don't leave now, I can't guarantee what might happen."
"Sorry, I'm going back now!" Asher's spirits lifted, and he stood up abruptly, about to leave, but stopped at the doorway.
"By the way, Shishou."
"What?" Scathach sat on the bed, looking up at the boy at the door.
"Good night."
Scathach was slightly taken aback, then smiled faintly. "Go on."
Upon hearing Scathach's reply, Asher finally left the room.
And after Asher left, Scathach revealed a faint smile and murmured to herself.
"He's really timid."
However, from now on, there was no need to treat Asher as she had before.
Originally, it was only out of their Shishou-disciple relationship that she had always presented herself as a strict Shishou to Asher. But now, the so-called strict Shishou seemed to have no meaning whatsoever.
After all, even if she only showed the strict side of her, that disciple still loved her.
Since that was the case, there was no need to maintain any image to conceal her true personality.
Scathach looked up at the window, took a shallow breath, and slowly exhaled.
She had long known of her disciple's feelings, but upon hearing them directly, she still felt an unusual sensation… This was truly quite interesting.
However… how exactly should she explain this to Uathach?
Scathach rubbed her temples, feeling a rare headache. Could she really say to Uathach, "I think your marriage to your brother isn't quite suitable, so perhaps we should cancel it?"
She couldn't imagine saying that.
No matter what she did, it wouldn't be easy…
Scathach closed her eyes, thinking about what she should do.
She asked Asher for the correct answer, but in reality, she didn't know the answer herself. She just wanted him to make his own decision.
---
Asher left Scathach's room, feeling that his steps were much lighter than usual. Although many challenges still awaited him, at least he had confirmed his Shishou's feelings, and his confession had been acknowledged.
Recalling the sweet kiss, Asher's face was still smiling as he entered his room, his heart filled with genuine joy.
And as Asher entered his room, two figures emerged from the shadows.
"You don't seem jealous at all? Don't you have an engagement with him? Was that engagement just something Scathach arranged herself?" Morgan le Fay shrugged, sweeping aside her golden hair, and sighed.
"If that's the case, then me specifically bringing you to watch the show would be pointless, wouldn't it?"
"Why should I be jealous?" Uathach looked at Morgan le Fay in confusion.
"I think it's quite ho—" She paused, then cleared her throat, "I think it's quite fun."
"Eh?" Morgan le Fay's smile stiffened slightly. She blinked, looking at Uathach in disbelief.
What did this child just say?
Uathach didn't speak. She turned to look out the window, humming a tune, seemingly genuinely happy.
Seeing her fiancé infatuated with her mother, confessing to her, and then struggling with what to do about his sister…
This feeling is so exciting!
Uathach's small face showed a hint of excitement. Finally, she couldn't suppress her laughter. She tilted her head and looked at Morgan le Fay, who seemed a bit bewildered. Her long purple hair looked especially captivating under the moonlight.
"Don't you think it's super interesting, Morgan… Onee-chan~?"
