Chapter 12: Scathach(2)
Author's note: Know that I do not know the personality of Scathach of Fate I took the Scathach from another world and another story.
Scathach:" And why should you train 2 kids and a slime?"
In his voice was a pressure that could hardly be tolerated.
Seeing Dad who could not find the words, I decided to talk to him.
Dia:" Nice to meet you, my name is Dia Gremory. And I want you to train me so that I can live happily with those I love. "
Those who came with me seemed surprised at my statement. It's true I want to become strong because I could make cool attacks, but I prefer to spend good time with those I love.
Scathach seemed surprised that I spoke, she let go a little smile and then spoke.
Scathach:" And how being strong would allow you to live with those you love? You can live well with your family and friend without being strong. "
Dia:" I agree with you, but I also want to protect this happiness. In this world where the supernatural exists, force determines everything. Even if I lived happily with those I love; someone strong could land and destroy everything. I don't want that to happen."
Scathach looked at me without saying anything and waited for me to continue talking.
Dia:" In addition, I want to have your advice to improve my mastery of weapons and also help me acquire new techniques."
Scathach: "You know that someone other than me could help you."
Dia:" I understand but no one is like you. Even if you have reached such an extraordinary level it is said that you have never relaxed in your training."
Scathach:" Indeed, relying on his achievements will lead many to their loss. I agree to train you you will call me from now on Scathach-sensei. But for the others it is no "
Dia:" Sorry to tell you but I do not accept no as an answer."
Everyone looked at me with shock. Especially Sera and Rimuru, who seemed to have signed my death warrant.
Dia:" Rimuru is my familiar and I want him to be strong enough to stand by me. For Sera, she is my best friend and rival, I don't want to become stronger than her if we didn't follow the same training."
Scathach:" But if it happens even by training it you will become so strong that the difference is like comparing a pebble to a planet."
Dia:" And then it just means that she didn't have the right training method or that my potential was better than her. But at least I would have beaten him legally. If you refuse me, it will be as if I had beaten him using a force that is not mine."
Scathach's smile grows even bigger, almost making his face look crazy.
Scathach: "Your little girl, what's your name?"
Sera:" M-My name is Se-Serafall S-S-Sitri."
I was so absorbed by my speech that I had forgotten that the being before me was an absurdly strong person.
It's totally normal for Sera to stutter.
Scathach:" You have a very good rival and friend, I will accept you and this slime as my disciple but on one condition. You're not interested in taking it easy. "
Sera:" Thank you Scathach-sensei. "
Scathach: " It's nothing and you. "
She says pointing at me.
Scathach:" You passed some of my tests. First you didn't get discouraged in front of you, I don't train the weak. Second, you dare to go against my will what can dare to do. Third, you have a good mentality to become stronger. If someone meets these criteria even if they don't want to train under me, I would force them to."
Dia:" Thank you for accepting my request. I am counting on you to take care of me, Scathach-sensei."
Rimuru:" Thank you, for wanting to train me also Scathach-sensei."
I felt like he could melt just by saying that.
Zeoticus:" Thank you also for wanting to train them."
Scathach: "I didn't do it for you, now go I'll bring them back while they're off."
On this dad left immediately.
Scathach:" And you don't thank me because the training I'm going to put you through will be hell."
After saying that her smile becomes evil.
