Chapter 76: Dun Scaith I

With fire in his eyes, Jun decided to immediately use the Akashic Gate to go and look for the teacher he seeked.

'Scathach . . . It can only be her . . .' Jun thought.

And so, in an instant, Jun appeared in front of Scathach's castle in the Land of Shadows and a mere blink of an eye later, Scathach herself appeared before him.

"An unexpected visitor! Truly a first for me." Scathach commented.

"What brings you to my domain warrior?" She asked.

"What bring any talent to your domain, a drive to seek greater prowess." Jun replied.

"Good answer and that mere truth that I struggle to see through you tells of your worthiness. But what do you seek specifically?" Scathach continued to ask.

"To forge by body and mind to the limit and find a way to effectively use all of my power." Jun replied.

"And what are you willing to suffer for that goal?" Scathach asked a final question.

"We're about to find out." Jun simply said.

"Huhuhuhu! Indeed we are." The Queen of Shadows responded.

And with that simple exchange of words, Jun's training began.

"First we'll have a little spar. Come at me with everything you have and show me everything you've got so that I may put together an appropriate training menu." Scathach commanded and Jun obeyed.

Donning his armor, he charged, Phantasmal Origin's chakram at his back and already firing a barrage of projectiles towards Scathach.

But she gracefully dodged the ranged attacks and dashed to meet Jun in close combat.

This was not the Scathach downgraded into a Servant, this was the true Scathach which was much more powerful and had access to all of her skills and abilities.

Boosting herself with runes, she raised her physical abilities to cover the gap between her and Jun who received a massive boost from his armor and used her skill Wisdom of Dun Scaith to attain an A rank Mana Burst which, although weaker that Jun's Idea Burst, closed some of the gap.

Jun summoned two wrist blades from his armor and went forward, his Idea Burst and armor deflecting Scathach's attack with her Gae Bold Alternative and allowing him to move in.

Scathach however, beautifully dodged his swipes and struck with greater force which nicked his armor but did no more, much to the immortal lady's shock.

Taking the opportunity, Jun used his Boundary of Nothingness (A+++) to create a Multi Dimensional Refraction Phenomenon like Regend's Swallow Reversal or Tsubame Gaeshi.

A storm of nine blades, all form different directions struck at Scathach but only an impressed look could be seen on her face and no more.

Doing the exact same as Jun, She dodged one blade strike and each of her two spears split into four to knock away the remaining eight slashes produced by Jun.

"This is about enough." Scathach was satisfied and Jun stopped.

"You have great prowess in martial arts and magecraft along with powerful tools but you lack proper instruction which led to a jumbled mess of abilities and lack of focus." She evaluated and Jun had to agree.

"I can see that you made your own noble phantasms. You're skill in this regard is much greater than mine so I'll just give you a little advice and let you sort it out yourself." Scathach continued.

"Let's hear it then." Jun responded.

"Hm. Try to condense all your item based noble phantasms into one thus concentrating the power you have but give it several different forms which can ideally be used at the same time." Scathach advised.

"You have great martial prowess but lack a dedicated weapon. You can even make a transforming one but remember, a weapon for you to use as your trump card, your companion." She further advised.

She then led Jun into her castle and gave him a large room to rest in and take care of the matter they had just discussed before training continued.

Now alone, in a dimension outside time, Jun prepared to follow Scathach's advice.

'If i'm going to put everything into one . . . Phantasmal Origin is the way to go. I feel like I've done a full lap in some ways and am back at the starting line.' He thought to himself.

He then reworked his entire noble phantasm, Stripping abilities, combining them and even adding a couple of one to then reforge Phantasmal Origin in its best shape yet.

He had taken a lot of things into consideration but he was mainly trying to fill the hole in his parameters and healing ability left behind by the broke Apokalypsis.

Phantasmal Origin: The First Illusion of Myriad Myths (UEX): The ultimate forge of noble phantasms and mystic codes while being a powerful weapon of war at the same time.

-Unlimited Craft Idea: The true form of Phantasmal Origin, a reality marble with unrivalled production capabilities, records and stores copies of any noble phantasm designed or observed by the user. The more noble phantasms stored within, the greater its power becomes.

-Utopian Idea: Ultra fast repair of damage to the user as well as reinforcement of the body, granting a toughened metal like body along with the ability to reduce all damage to 10% of its original value.

-Aigis Idea: A powerful armor with integrated weapons that ignore defensive abilities and Maana based type boosters that enable high speed flight and dimensional travel. Possesses a powerful conceptual barrier defence with seven layers and Anti All Harm protection based on willpower.

-Idea Force: A multi shaped weapon for any situation, having seven forms. A Vajra, a Warbow, a huge Greathammer, a Chakram that can change its size, an ornate Sidesword, a large Greatspear, a crystalline Dagger.

-Deus Ex Machina: The God from the Machine: Combines all previous abilities and turns the user into a powerful God killing machine as a weaponized exoskeleton.

"Not bad bad if I do say so myself!" Jun said to himself while appreciating his new creation.

By adding the ability to gain power from all the recorded noble phantasms, Jun eliminated the necessity to constantly rebuild it as it would grow with him from now on.

Since he had the time, Jun decided to also extract he broke remnants of Apokalypsis. Namely, the essence of the Body of Seven Seals, Voice of Seven Trumpets, Blood of Seven Cups and Beauty of Seven Sins as well as his broken Origin Core of Sin.

Daemonic Apocrypha remained but was downgraded to A rank so he let it stay. The Book of Akasha was the exact same as before.

After he did so, he went to find Scathach once again and noticing this, she came to him.

"Looks like you suffered quite a big defeat recently." She commented.

"Yes, one from an enemy whose raw power was significantly lower than mine." Jun confessed.

"Let us make sure that will never happen again. Tell me of your skills and progress with you noble phantasm." Scathach said.

"I'm done on the noble phantasm." Jun revealed while explained the previous specs as well as the new one's.

"Well done, if you can master it, it will be quite the ideal tool." Scathach praised.

Jun then explained his skills to her and she immediately made one comment.

"True Nothingness and Daemonic Apocrypha will be sealed until the end on the training since they are good for for real life situations but a crutch in training certain abilities so you will only use them when I allow it." She declared.

"Very well." Jun accepted.

"Hmm. Good!" Scathach nodded.

"Show me what materials you have and I'll check if there is something useful for training." She requested and Jun acquiesced, he was planning on making the most of his new teacher's wisdom, even if it cost him most of what he had.

"!!!" Even the mighty Scathach became utterly speechless at Jun's stash of treasures.

"Kuhuhuhuhuhu!" She started laughing with a crazed glint in her eyes.

"With this much . . ." She trailed off without finishing the phrase.

And so, Jun's hellish training began. It was divided into physical training, mental training and combat training.

They were pretty self explanatory and the first two often went hand in hand while the last one was either fighting the powerful beings in the Land of Shadows or simply sparring with Scathach.

Jun had no problem with the combat training other than not being able to use True Nothingness to hide and dodge attacks, neither Daemonic Apocrypha to predict his enemies moves.

The the other two however, were far, far more . . . demanding . . . If Jun had thought his previous training was harsh, he had no idea what was coming.
