Chapter 1173: Meet the Youngest Daughter of the Family. 2
"...." She frowned and looked at Victor with irritation.
"More than that, you would not only destroy this entire dimension, but you would also cause severe damage to the planet, and you would kill her in the process. The moment you used one of your strongest attacks, this stopped being a punishment and became a duel to the death. And we do not do things like that here." Victor’s voice became heavier at the end.
Scathach’s eyes shone even more for a few seconds, but then she sighed, and her desire to fight began to visibly fade.
Victor released Scathach, who crossed her arms and pouted like a child whose fun had been interrupted. "I wouldn’t kill her... Just traumatize her a little."
Even though she was very excited, Scathach was not a child. That attack would not have killed her. She was a Dragon Goddess! She was not that weak, but it would probably hurt a lot, and she would likely be traumatized, but she would not die!
"... One of your strongest attacks? That means she has more?"
"Of course she does, it wouldn’t be Scathach if she only had one attack that could destroy reality itself."
"That kind of attack should be used against enemies, my dear wife, and not against our family." He scolded her.
"Of course, I am the exception. After all, your attack is weak, so I can deal with it easily." He spoke in an irritating way, knowing that these words would completely distract her.
"....." Scathach narrowed her eyes and turned to face Victor, her face becoming frightening.
"You will fight me right now."
"Fufufu, we’ll see." Having completely captured Scathach’s excitement and desire to fight, Victor repaired the entire dimension with a snap of his fingers.
"Waaaaaaahhhhh, Darling, that was scary!!!" Albedo quickly hugged Victor.
"I promise that I will improve, but don’t send me to that crazy woman anymore!!! Nothing I did worked! What kind of nonsense is this?! My spells can destroy planets!"
"Another one has joined the PTSD group. I bet 15 Knull that she will improve from now on. The effect of my mother is scary." Ruby spoke and then nodded, satisfied: "As expected, Scathach’s treatment is always effective. Therefore, for any problem between the wives, send them to Scathach! If Scathach is acting badly, just tell Darling!"
In the family, only Victor could control Scathach, and thus he was responsible for her punishment.
"Just for fun, I will say that she will not improve." Sasha accepted the bet.
Victor caressed Albedo’s white hair as his wife waited for comforting words, but instead, Victor spoke:
"You are very weak, Albedo." He was merciless, since it was for her own good.
"Eh!?"
"You were a great mage. I understand that, but what kind of mage does not know hand-to-hand combat?" He was genuinely confused.
"Huh!? That doesn’t make any sense!" Now the one who was confused was Albedo.
"Every mage must know hand-to-hand combat. You expect to stay far away and attack elegantly? High-level beings will not let you use your powers." In a high-speed battle, you don’t have time to cast magic.
When she picked up the sword, he thought she was going to fight in hand-to-hand combat, but the sword was only a staff, and she never swung it!
"Everything comes down to the basics! Before making flashy techniques, you must know martial arts! And what kind of Dragon Goddess uses an enchanted sword to help with spells? You are wasting your potential. You are a total disaster."
"....", Scathach nodded several times, agreeing with Victor. One of the reasons she had become so irritated was seeing her waste her potential with this useless way of fighting.
Instead of fighting against a Dragon Goddess, she felt that she was fighting against a Goddess imitating a human, and that was extremely insulting!
"Even our younger daughters are stronger than you now." Victor continued.
"Ugh." Albedo felt several arrows piercing through her body.
"Forget the younger daughters, even Nigredo can defeat her now." Scathach tightened her grip on the proverbial knife.
"From now on, your experiments are canceled, and you will train every day with Scathach until you reach her standards."
Albedo shuddered: "NOOO! Don’t send me to that crazy woman. I accept anyone else, but not her!"
"No excuses. Just improve. I will keep watching, and if you don’t improve in 1000 years and get rid of all these bad habits from when you were a mage, I will personally train you together with Scathach."
Victor was genuinely confused. When Albedo joined the family, she was trained, and most of these bad habits were erased, but by isolating herself in experiments, she returned to them. It was one thing to use a divine weapon like Scathach’s that had the power to kill gods, but she was using a weapon as a crutch.
She was a Dragon Goddess for God’s sake! Why is she regressing instead of progressing? It doesn’t make sense!
"NOOOOOOOO!"
Victor had no pity. It was for her own good, so he looked at Scathach and spoke: "Let’s go, Master. Show me if you can hurt me."
Veins popped on Scathach’s head. "You brat, you are really annoying."
"Fufufufu~" Victor disappeared together with Scathach.
"They will fight and then practice the night fight, right?" Natasha could see the tension in the air between the two.
"100% certain." Violet nodded.
"... I will-" Naty tried to say something, but her sister held her back.
"Better not, or you will be caught in the middle of the conflict and have to fight against Scathach and Victor," Natasha warned.
"....", Naty obediently stayed sitting in her corner and did not say anything else. Deal with Scathach and Victor at the same time? She was not crazy, thank you very much.
"... I understand that you were using the sword so that the truth of the tree of life could be placed into reality more easily, but it is still a crutch."
"Ugh, I am not like you guys, okay? My learning is more methodical." Albedo felt the pressure of being in a family of monsters. She was very talented and had a lot of potential, but everyone around her was too!
"If you didn’t stay so isolated, you would have learned from me. You could have just done this." Anna spoke and, with a simple word: "Life.", she brought all the characteristics of the tree of life into reality.
"...." Albedo was speechless, looking at that.
"Staying isolated is bad for creativity, and we, as Dragon gods, depend a lot on imagination and creativity to use our powers."
"Using the tree of life is good and all, but why didn’t you use the Emperor himself? He has thousands of divine concepts, and his existence has enormous weight in reality. Even better, if you are going to use a tree, use the universal tree."
"... Well..."
’Actually, she had a point. Why didn’t I think of that?’ Albedo was speechless.
"Better yet, don’t use the Emperor, or the universal tree. You are a Dragon Goddess! Use yourself as a medium, just like Scathach did. Do you think her being recognized as the Goddess of war didn’t give her more power? You are not even present in the Empire, so your divine concept is very weak, and your weight in reality is very weak. Because of this, you could not move in Scathach’s last attack."
"...."
"No more being stuck in the laboratory from now on, understood?" Anna was firm in her words.
"Yes..."
...
Some time passed. After Victor calmed Scathach, the woman appeared with a smiling face, and with her skin shining, she was clearly nourished after fighting. With this renewed mood, she began training Albedo seriously.
"Forget your magic! You are not a human mage. You are a Dragon Goddess. The energy is yours to dominate. You don’t use energy like humans. You order it to do something, and it obeys!"
"I know, I know that! I’m not stupid!"
"And you are doing it wrong!?"
"Ughyaaaaaa!"
"Go back to the basics. You are a True Dragon, the personification of reality taking form. You are compatible with everything. You don’t need draconic runes to use power. You just use it!" Scathach kicked the air, and a burst of pure draconic flames was formed, and the flames completely cleared the clouds in the sky.
"Again!"
"Yes!!!"
"Draconic runes should be used when you want to impose a concept on reality. It is not a crutch. It is a code that changes observable reality to be what you want! You don’t need to use it to form simple spells, your own biology does that just by breathing!"
"....." The daughters, looking at their mother suffering, only shuddered and politely turned their faces away.
The only one who stayed was Siren. She really wanted to participate in the training, so that’s what she did. Despite her sisters’ lunatic looks, Siren approached Scathach.
"Albedo, you-..." The Spartan instructor’s tone softened, and she looked gently at her daughter: "Oh, my daughter, what is it?"
"Can I train too?"
"Of course." She laughed, satisfied. She looked at her other daughters and asked: "And do you want to participate too?"
"....." The group quickly shook their heads so hard that they formed a small wind around them.
"It is a shame, but I will not force you." Scathach shrugged.
"....." The group sighed in relief.
"Girls, lunch is ready."
"Yes, Mother!!!" The group answered Anna’s request as if it were divine salvation, and quickly ran to the dinner table.
Anna looked curiously at the daughters who ran as if they were fleeing from something terrible, and then looked at Scathach and understood what it was.
"You are not going to eat?"
"Not yet, I am finishing her basic training."
Anna looked at Albedo, who wore a full leather outfit, with bracelets on her wrists and ankles that made her body extremely slow.
"What is the gravity?"
The function of the gravity bracelet did not come with numbers, but only references to the star. The last function of the bracelet is the gravity of a black hole, where, theoretically, everything is compressed into an infinite space and not even light escapes.
"It is approaching a neutron star. She is at the level of a star, but has not reached it yet, and if I put the last one, she will die crushed."
"Surviving a-..." Albedo was going to complain.
Scathach simply pointed at her daughter.
Albedo looked at Siren and was incredulous at seeing her daughter training in the theoretically infinite gravity of a singularity.
"For Dragon Gods, everything is possible, and what is not possible is because we just haven’t tried. This weak mentality is the first thing I will break. How can a member of the Elderblood family not survive a singularity? This is the minimum requirement."
She watched her daughter for a few seconds and then turned back and looked at Scathach seriously.
"Train me, Master Scathach."
’... Hmm, she doesn’t seem to be a lost cause, fufufu~.’ Scathach thought.
"When Tyche transforms into a True Dragon, she will also go through this training. We will not just give her basic training to get used to her powers. We will shape her mentality to be a True Dragon." Anna spoke.
"I agree. I will not make the same mistake I made with Albedo."
Albedo pouted. She failed so much that she became a point of reference. Her eyes became more serious. If there was one thing Albedo was, it was being a very competitive person, and she was not going to stay behind her daughters!
When she was going to return to training, suddenly all the wives heard Violet’s excited voice:
[The youngest daughter of the family was born!!!]
The announcement was like a localized explosion that made them all move at once.
