Chapter 66: Ch-65: The Approaching Climax

"Tling- Tling- Tling-"

The metal fragments of the crushed divine sword fell to the ground. Then it literally vapoured into mana and disappeared. 

Though <Ama no Murakumo no Tsurugi> is a Subordinate God, it's just the manifestation of a certain Authority, just like Roy's <Sacred Line of Judgment of Good and Evil>.

Even if it's completely shattered, as long as the original owner of the sword is still alive, the demigod-cum-sword can slowly be bred again.

As long as anyone understands a little bit of Japanese myths and legends, one will definitely able to recognise <Ama no Murakumo no Tsurugi> which is more ingeniously known as the <Kusanagi no Tsurugi>.

According to the legend, Susanoo, the Japanese God of Storm slew Yamata no Orochi by chopping it's eight heads and eight tails. 

In the fourth tail, Susanoo found a great sword inside the body of the serpent which he called <Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi>. Later, he presented the sword to the Sun Goddess Amaterasu to settle an old grievance.

In the mythological concept of this world, it is the Hero of Steel who killed the Mother Earth Goddess and turned the body of the goddess into his own magic weapon.

Logically speaking, this sword should be either a Authority of Yamata no Orochi, Susanoo or of Amaterasu. 

Roy carefully recalled in his mind, and finally pulled out some information about the word "Susanoo" from the memory of the previous life. 

The memories of his previous life are more like a blur, only when he delve into for a particular topic will the memory resurface. Simply, his old memories are more like stored in a file and he can retrieve those when he specifically 'searches' for it, just like this time. 

Back to the topic, according to his memory, those Heretic Gods who survive long enough will eventually calm themselves, at that time they are referred to as 'True Gods'.

However, they cannot return to their myths unless slain, so they choose to either go to sleep, or pass into the Netherworld and wait there, where they are separated from the mortal world. 

The Susanoo of this world is one such 'True God'. After wandering on the earth for many years, wreaking destruction, he was tired of this kind of life, so he also choose to seclude himself. 

There is an unwritten rule in this world, that Godslayers can't hunt secluded Gods and similarly, secluded Gods cannot interfere in the mortal world, living a hermit's life; otherwise one who does so will be targeted as a common enemy by both the sides. 

"Since you are a recluse, you should have been honestly drinking tea and playing chess, and observe the development of the world."

"But you had to reach out your fingers to the mortal world, and wanted to continue to influence the world. Since you are not willing to live in seclusion, then I, the Campione, will help you return to the myth."

"[BEAST777], the one who shall cross the evil of mankind!"

Roy snorted, he seemed to be talking to himself but he had actually issued a declaration of war to the god across the world, who was peeping here on feeling the destruction of his sword. 

There are not many Gods who live in seclusion in the Astral Plane, but none of these gods violate the rules. They all have honestly secluded themselves and ignore worldly affairs.

However, Susanoo violated this rule. In that case, Roy, as a Godslayer, had solid excuse to slay this so-called True God.

However, even if the God of Storms is not Roy's opponent; most of Roy's powers are currently on cooldown. Moreover, Susanoo is hiding in the Astral Plane, so it would be very difficult to find his hideout. 

In Pandora's field, Roy had also briefly studied the Astral Plane, knowing that Astral Plane is a 'plane of thought'. 

There is no concept of the so-called distance and height, and without accurate coordinates, if he wants to find a certain existence in the secluded world: it's like finding a needle in a haystack, Roy does not want to play peek-a-boo with Susanoo, randomly searching the whole Astral Plane; so he will wait until there is a chance, and decisively kill him.

"Lily, tie this girl Ena. If you look carefully, she is also a premier Hime-Miko. Let her join my ceremony. By the way, heal her injuries, but only to the state where she can walk."

With that said, Roy glanced lightly at Yuri Mariya, who was unable to move. The fifteen year-old girl in the witch costume trembled and quickly lowered her head to prevent Roy from seeing the anger and disgust in her eyes. 

It is estimated that it will be difficult for this girl to reverse the bad impression of the Godslayers in a short period of time. 

Two years ago, she suffered an disaster and was arrested by the Marquis to perform the summoning ceremony. She witnessed the deaths of countless innocent Hime-Mikos and witchs.

Two years later, she was once again caught by Roy to perform a new ceremony. This time it was the entire Tokyo that was affected; probably in Yuri Mariya's heart, the Godslayer is hundred times more diabolical than even the cruelest of devils.

But Roy only valued the spirituality of Yuri Mariya as a Hime-Miko. He is not a counselor who will correct the girl's view on Godslayers, he will rather spend that time on occult research; to him Yuri Mariya is just a stranger. 

"By the way, Lily, please inform the History Compilation Committee of Japan. I can forgive them for their previous self-assertion, but the premise is to find enough good maidens within seven days and send then to Jerusalem. If not, let the Japanese government prepare to shift their capital."

Roy could roughly guess Susanoo's thought process. 

Susanoo has a high position comparable to a Grand Elder in the History Compilation Committee, if it's Susano who calculated all of this, then he probably wanted to wait till both he and Marquis were injured in the battle, and then act as a peacemaker to benefit from both sides, but he would have never expected that Marquis Voban would actually be killed and all the calculations will go down in drain. 

As for the threat, Roy had no such intentions about destroying Tokyo or something. Tokyo occupies a very important position in the global economy. 

If it is destroyed by him, it will easily cause economic turbulence in the world, even leading to the shattering of global economy, which will cause the stable situation of the world to become chaotic.

He faintly understood why Aleister wrote in his book that the Gods of Magic can but don't destroy the world as they will lose their source of entertainment. Even Roy prefers a stable world rather than a chaotic world. 

Although Roy is not ready to destroy Tokyo. But the threat is still required, as per Princess Alice, Japan houses nearly a quarter of world's Hime-Mikos. 

The History Compilation Committee as the Japan's dominant magic association will definitely able to provide quality Hime-Mikos, enough to perform the ceremony. 

"Erica, can you still walk?"

Roy looked at Erica, who was barely supporting herself, and asked in an easy-going tone.

"After the rest just now, I have recovered some of my mana, King. If I want to fight, for now it's impossible, but just walking around is not a problem."

The strong-willed girl limped but stated firmly. 

"Because of the seriousness of your injuries, even if it's treated with magic, you will be weak for a few days. My current power is temporarily unavailable. When it's restores tomorrow, I will use my power to heal your body."

Erica raised her face to look at Roy and shook her head fervently: 

"King, please don't use your power that is diurnal on me, in case any situation arises when you need it. Before becoming a Great Knight I have faced more violent training than this."

"There are not many battles where I use this power, so it mostly gets wasted. It is better to heal my loyal and brave knight. This is also a reward for your previous deeds. Of course, after the reward, is a punishment. For now come let me be your support."

Roy looked down and picked up his knight into a princess hug under her short exclamation. 

Although Erica is young, her figure is curvy and voluptuous, especially the buxom above the curvaceous waist, coupled with her calamine red lips like rose petals; she looks like a tempting noble princess from a fairy tale.

"We will go straight to Jerusalem after a short break."

Roy stated as gazed at the setting sun. 

The next thing he has to do is to complete the ritual of summoning the Heretic God related to Archangel Michael. 

As for why in Jerusalem, because Christianity was born from within the Jewish tradition and Israel is the somewhat a land of origin of Judaism. 

Roy wants to use the land of the Ancient Jewish kingdom as a medium. Even if the summoned Heretic God is not King Solomon, it will definitely be related to the God's Mythos.
