A god who doesn't obey doesn't appear every day.
The best way to become stronger is through down-to-earth practice.
Godkiller World
In a spacious room of a hotel converted from the residence of Princess Savoy, a meeting is taking place.
There are four people at the conference table.
The two old men were an old noblewoman and the leader of the female wolf.
Even in this country where the world of magic flourishes, both sides are ancient and powerful knightly orders.
In ancient terms, it would be Grandmaster.
Another one was a young man in his thirties.
He is also the commander of the Knights of Lily City.
The last one is Erica Brantelli, who represents the bronze black cross.
The old noblewoman, the commander, said, "Well then, everyone, it's about time to draw a conclusion. The reason this has caused us all so much trouble is: who should be entrusted with handling this Gorgon Stone?"
Chapter 108 The Stone of Gorgon
"Who should handle this? Is this a good idea? I don't think it's a wise decision."
"Although our leader, Lord Salbatre, is no longer here, it would be too shameful for us to treat foreign players as kings. Aren't we afraid of becoming a laughing stock?"
The female wolf commander objected, clearly disagreeing with the old noblewoman commander's words.
"Let those who want to laugh go ahead. The most important thing is that this Gorgon Stone is genuine. However, we do not have a king to rely on. Compared to that, a momentary humiliation is nothing."
"Being humiliated is a minor matter; what if we anger the king? What if Lord Salbartley finds out that we have sought help from other kings?"
"Who can predict how angry he will be? That's what we're really worried about."
The two old men argued endlessly. Both of them were leaders of powerful magic societies, and their status was second only to the leader.
And this person is their leader, Salbatre, the strongest swordsman in Europe, the leader of the Southern European Magic Society Alliance 03, and the sixth god-slayer.
Even the strongest knight and the highest-ranking magician cannot contend with the [King] or the [God].
This is the truth of this world.
At this moment, the commander of the Lily City spoke up: "But would Lord Salbartley really care about such trivial matters?"
"In that person's eyes, we are nothing more than bees gathered in a hive. I don't think we would feel any anger at the bees choosing a new queen bee, would we?"
The commander of the Lily City is very tall, nearly 190 centimeters, and wears a very tasteful suit, but paired with a tasteless purple tie.
His facial features were regular, but his messy beard gave him a gloomy look.
"That being said, I really can't think of which [King] I should ask for help with this matter."
"The Stone of Gorgon is a symbol of Mother Earth of the isolated island. Although this also means a duel with the oldest goddess, Marquis Vauban would probably still be eager to try."
"However, in conclusion, even if one escapes from the hands of the God of Disobedience, it would be a loss to attract the demon king that the Balkans can do."
Marquis Woban is notoriously fierce and brutal. He fights without regard for consequences, and if the Demon King and the Gods were to fight with all their might, one or two cities could be easily reduced to ashes.
After he finished speaking, the conference room fell silent.
At this moment, Erica spoke up: "Actually, there is another king we can ask for help from."
All three of them turned their gaze to Erica.
"I'm sure you've all heard about it from various rumors: the seventh Demon King."
"The Seventh Demon King? Is that really not just a rumor?"
Erica smiled and said, "We're all old friends, so don't pretend you don't know anything. At first, some people might not have been sure because almost no one saw the killing of Veleslana, but I believe you have already confirmed and verified that the God King Mercator was defeated by the Seventh Demon King."
"So, just as the rumors say, Erica, you know the Seventh Demon King."
Erica readily admitted, "That's right, I am his lover and his first knight. The reason he killed the war god Veleslana and the god king Mercator was because of me."
As Erica said this, a happy smile appeared on her face.
"for you?!"
The three of them were quite surprised to hear this.
Erica is indeed a famous beauty in the entire magic world, and also a genius girl.
He has already reached the rank of Grand Knight at such a young age.
There is a great chance that you will become a paladin in the future.
But even a paladin is no different from an ordinary person in front of the Demon King.
They were astonished that a demon king of such high status would kill a god for a woman.
"What is the name of that mysterious seventh demon king?"
"His name is Lu Li."
"Lu Li? Surname first, given name last, that's an ancient custom in the East. Could he be related to Luo Hao, the leader of the Jiangnan sect?"
Luo Hao, the leader of the cult, is also a well-known figure among the Godslayers. His opponent is the second Godslayer, and he defeated the gods head-on using martial arts and magic to become a Godslayer.
Erica shook her head: "No, it's not appropriate to tell you his specific identity, but I can say that he doesn't belong to any country or magical faction, so asking for his help won't make us a laughing stock in other countries."
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard Erica's words.
It doesn't belong to any country or magical faction, and that alone is enough to make any force extend an olive branch to it.
Erica said, "I know what you're up to, but I advise you to give up. To that person, all your bargaining chips are meaningless."
"That lord did not rely on any coincidence, but simply defeated the two gods with magic and force."
"The power that other godkillers and all magicians crave is nothing more than amusement for him; he doesn't even bother with it."
"193, how is that possible?"
Several people found it hard to believe when they heard this.
"He is so powerful that perhaps in your eyes Marquis Vauban and Lord Salbaret are the top god-slayers."
"But in my opinion, Marquis Woban is not even worthy to carry Lord Lu Li's shoes."
The three people's expressions changed immediately upon hearing Erica's words.
"Erica! You mustn't speak ill of the King behind his back!"
If this were to get out, it could bring disaster to the Copper Black Cross and the entire Magic Society.
Erica didn't mind at all: "I'm just telling the truth."
The three of them found Erica's confidence unbelievable. She was just a newly born demon king, so how could Erica have so much confidence in her? After all, Marquis Walton was the oldest god-slayer.
The female wolf commander asked, "Has the Copper Black Cross already pledged allegiance to that king?"
Erica shook her head: "Not yet, I haven't told him, but I know he'll definitely agree to provide protection if I ask. Copper Black Cross."
The old noblewoman's commander sighed, "This is truly enviable! But as you say, Erica, establishing a good relationship with such a king is certainly a good thing. I agree with your decision."
Chapter 109 A Good News
At this moment, the commander of the Lily City said, "I know Erica, what you said makes a lot of sense, but without personally confirming the strength of the Seventh Demon King, I cannot entrust the fate of my people to him based solely on your testimony."
The female wolf commander nodded: "My thoughts are the same as the Purple Knight's."
Erica was not surprised at all; not only would others believe her based on her words alone, but she herself did as well.
"I knew you would all say that. As the saying goes, seeing is believing. Rather than a thousand words, you will believe it if you witness that person's fighting prowess with your own eyes."
"Since you've brought up the fight, who is your opponent? Finding an opponent who can fight Wang Yi won't be easy."
"Far away, yet so close."
"You mean you?"
“That’s right, I, Erica Brantelli, will be the King’s opponent. Of course, compared to the King, I am nothing, but I am still a Grand Knight under the Red Copper Black Cross, known as the ‘Crimson Demon’. I believe I am qualified to be the opponent to test our strength.”
What do you all think?
The Purple Knight nodded: "Hmm... I think it's fine to be able to witness the King's battle firsthand."
The female wolf also raised her hand and said, "I second that!"
Seeing that everyone agreed, Erica smiled and said, "Then let's have the duel this afternoon."
"Oh? So we'll be able to see the Seventh Demon King this afternoon?"
The three men's eyes lit up when they heard Erica's words. The king had always been very arrogant, and even though they had joined Salbartley's forces, they had seen him very, very few times.
Let alone this afternoon, it wouldn't be surprising if the time were delayed by another month or two.
That's how their king is; they don't see him even once a year.
This seventh demon king is incredibly mysterious. He accomplished something as great as killing a god, yet he has never appeared. It seems that only Erica has ever actually seen him.
"Yes々"! "
"That's great!"
In any case, being able to establish a relationship with the king would be of great benefit to their association and their country.
Otherwise, a disobedient god like Mercator, the king of gods, could really cause the destruction of a family and the country.
The gods don't concern themselves with these matters; only the demon king does.
That's why the king is so important to everyone.
After the meeting ended, Erica immediately reported the good news to Lu Li.
Buzz————!
Lu Li sensed a vibration on the chat panel.
Erica: @Lu Li, darling, I have some good news to tell you.
Upon seeing this, Lu Li's heart stirred.
[Lu Li: "You're pregnant?"]
[Rin Tohsaka: "Erica-neechan is pregnant? That means I'm going to be an aunt! I'm only seven! But no problem, she can play with me then."]
[Kanae: "Erica, I have some medicine here to help you recover. Do you need it?"]
Whitebeard: "So I'll be a grandfather before I die? That's great news! Gurarararara!!"
Erica's face was flushed. She did want to have a child with Lu Li, but she wasn't pregnant yet.
Erica: "What...what are you saying? I'm not pregnant."
Rin Tohsaka: "I'm not pregnant! ╥﹏╥..."
[Kanae: "Don't worry if you're not pregnant yet. You two are still young. Adjust your mindset and take it slow."]
[Whitebeard: "Lu Li, so much time has passed, you need to work harder!"]
"..."
Lu Li and Erica were both speechless.
Are these guys always hanging around in chat groups?
How come everyone popped up as soon as he started talking to Erica?
[Lu Li: "What's the good news?"]
Erica: "Didn't you ask me to keep an eye out for the disobedient gods?"
That's right, ever since Lu Li separated and recombined the powers of Veleslana and the God-King Mercator to create a new godhood.
He instructed Erica to keep an eye out for disobedient gods, and that he planned to eliminate a few more wherever they were, upgrade his own godhood, or create some new godhoods.
This feeling is similar to searching the world for bosses to report their equipment.
[Lu Li: "Is there news of a disobedient god? Where is he?"]
Erica: "No, but it's also related to the Disobedient Gods. It's the Gorgon Stone, and that thing attracts the Disobedient Gods."
