The Paladin on the Infinite Tour

Judging from Erica's previous performance, words and deeds, Ixia can basically confirm that humans in this world do not have much power to fight against the gods.

If so, Erica wouldn't have that helpless reaction when she mentioned the God of Disobedience.

But now she is saying that there are humans in this world who can kill disobedient gods?

"...Do you really not know?"

Erica frowned.

"Obviously he has the power to fight against the divine beasts, but he doesn't know about the God of Disobedience at all, and he doesn't even know about the God-Slayer..."

"Didn't I tell you? We are travelers from another world."

Traveler from another world. Hearing Exia talk about this identity again, Erica also remembered the conclusion that she had asked the local magic association and the Copper and Black Cross intelligence agency to conduct investigations in the past two days.

That was an outrageous conclusion that was unbelievable, but could prove that what he said was true - as of yesterday, shortly before the confrontation with the wild boar at the port, there had never been a person named Ixia Mi in this world. Characters of Saiya Kaslana and Susan Lee.

Although it cannot be completely determined, the possibility that they are people from another world is indeed very high.

"...Okay, then let me explain to you the existence of the God Killer - in a nutshell, that is the [Demon King]."

"Demon King?"

"That's right, Demon King."

Generally speaking, it is impossible for humans to fight against a disobedient god. No matter how you practice swordsmanship and magic, and cultivate both to the highest level, there is still an absolute gap between you and the gods. It takes a lifetime of practice for mortals to reach the level of the gods, and the gods are born in the world. That moment has been reached.

There is absolutely no way to resist, let alone defeat, a god through normal means.

But there are indeed people in this world who can do this kind of thing.

In terms of probability, it is no different than a worker's child who was born in a stable and eventually became the savior of the world. In comparison, it is relatively simple to only cause three or four miracles.

The God Killer is an existence beyond common sense that can make such extremely low probability things happen to him.

It doesn't matter if the reason for killing a god for the first time is simple luck, simple ignorance, or even being possessed by a god, and finally surviving the battle with other gods - as long as there is After one act of killing gods, humans can directly take away the [power] belonging to the gods from the gods and become the devil king above all humans.

"Take away the [power] of the God of Disobedience?"

Some bizarre statements made Exia frown-this statement seemed to be somewhat similar to his Chimera?

Erica's explanation continued.

"The next thing I heard is just something - after becoming a God-killer, the God-killer will no longer be a human being. In addition to power, they will directly receive the blessing of knowing any language in the world, and the bones will It becomes harder than any metal in the world, the muscles are so strong that they are difficult to tear, the bleeding will stop immediately, and the sense of pain will become dull. The body contains hundreds of times the magic power of ordinary magicians, and can completely It invalidates all magic from the outside world, and the body will naturally adjust to its optimal state when fighting with all its strength... In short, the Godslayer is a demon king who is outrageous to the extreme in every aspect."

"Hmm~~~It's interesting."

Listening to Erica's words about the God-Killer one after another like telling the names of dishes, Alexia couldn't help but feel some interest in her heart after being silent for a while.

After killing the gods, did humans become demon kings?

"Since you understand it so clearly, does it mean that there are - or there have been - God-killers in this world now?"

"Um."

Erica nodded.

The birth of the God-Slayer is a miracle among miracles that occurred after countless accidental collisions. From the distant ancient times to the present, the total number of God-Slayers that have appeared may not exceed three digits.

And modern——

"There are as many as six god-slayers in this era. The oldest one appeared more than three hundred years ago and is known as the oldest demon king. The most recent one appeared four years ago Previously, he was also the current leader of the Alliance of Magic Associations in Southern Europe, [King of Swords] El Salvador. The whole of Italy is his territory."

Turn an entire country into your own territory?

“The national government of Italy recognized this transfer of national ownership?”

"I have to admit it."

Erica said helplessly: "Salvador Lei Qing is the king of swords who can cut off everything. Even if he can break mountains and split seas, he only needs one sword. Not to mention modern weapons, as I said before, if he If you do, it will be easy to destroy Italy - fortunately, you have no intention of participating in politics, and you spend every day searching for powerful enemies around the world."

Does that mean he is only a nominal lord?

Even an entire country could only succumb to the other party's force. This reminded Exia of the situation in the world of Xian Kami Island - it was similar there, the entire world surrendered to the absolute power of the three true ancestors. Under this, the sanctuary treaty that maintains the entire world has been able to exist for a long time based on the power of the First True Ancestor.

And even a student like Exia, who is not yet an adult, was naturally caught up in the position of the Lord of String God Island after becoming the Fourth True Ancestor. Now, String God Island has become the fourth night island. of empire.

In this sense, he can actually be said to be a god-killer.

"I see, I roughly understand the situation. Thank you for your explanation, Ms. Erica."

"Just think of it as a gift in return for me asking you about something. Wasn't it like this before?" Erica smiled slightly, "The exchange of information based on mutual interests. I actually quite like this kind of thing. .”

"Then let me ask one more thing - no, let me confirm one thing."

Alexia knocked on the table.

"If, I mean if."

"If Su Shang and I kill both of the two disobedient gods in the upcoming battle between the two disobedient gods, will we be able to become god-killers directly? ?”

Alexia's tone was as relaxed as if she was talking about what she wanted to eat tonight, but what Erica's ears captured made her wonder if there was something wrong with her ears.

What does this traveler from another world in front of me say he wants to do?

What did he just say? !

31. It’s okay to kill a god, right?

Erica Browntree is a well-known prodigy and genius in the Italian magic world.

With an outstanding appearance like a princess and a queen, a devilishly alluring figure, outstanding magic skills, and a gorgeous swordsmanship that is unique among her peers - not only the outside, but also the inside of Erica is an impeccable beauty. At the age of fifteen this year, she had already learned forbidden techniques that could cause harm to mythical beasts and even gods.

Except his personality is a little bit worse.

And even for Erica like this, when she faced the disobedient god, her thoughts never included [killing gods]. Because she knew very well that she could not kill the gods. After all, the gods of disobedience were existences far beyond superhuman intelligence. How could mere humans defeat them?

The God Killer is a miracle that only has a one-in-a-million chance of appearing. Erica will not place her hope on that weak probability, nor does she think she can evoke the ultimate miracle.

Not just her, but probably everyone in the magic world thinks so.

And what does she hear now?

"You...want to kill God?"

At this moment, it was as if all the sounds in the restaurant had been lost. Erica, who was concentrating to the limit, completely ignored the surrounding environment for a while and focused all her attention on Alexia.

The man in front of her was someone who could fight a mythical beast, Erica was sure of this.

This is indeed an amazing power, and it can be said to be second to none among magicians and knights. But fighting gods is a completely different dimension, and there is no comparison between the two.

"Do you want to destroy yourself?"

"How could it be possible? It's just killing a god, but does it lead to my own destruction?" Exia chuckled, "Speaking of which, your attitude and reaction are pretty much what I thought - —I don’t know what kind of identity you have, what kind of education you have received since childhood, and what kind of knowledge you have been instilled.”

"But I can say that you - all magicians and knights including you - no matter how you train and how much you train your strength, you will never be able to become a god-killer."

clatter!

After speaking, Exia tapped her fingers on the table.

As if a circle of ripples spread from his fingertips, Erica's concentration that had reached its limit immediately relaxed, and the surrounding sounds that she had subconsciously ignored suddenly came back like a tide.

"Okay, relax, Ms. Erica. Being too nervous will accelerate aging."

"...You are truly a madman."

After a moment of silence, Erica said: "I'll take your words about wanting to kill gods as a joke - but there's another sentence you just said that I can't ignore. You said Is there a divine battle coming soon?”

There will be a divine battle in Sardinia.

Erica knew about this, and that was why she came here. But she didn't know the specific time. And Exia's tone sounded as if he knew when the God War would happen.

"There's something else you haven't told me, right?"

"No, I said everything. Of course, if you insist that I still have something to say, then I can't provide evidence to refute you."

"..."

After continuing to stare at Alexia for a while, Erica sighed helplessly, put her hands on the table and stood up: "Okay. I have disturbed you two from dining, please excuse me and leave first."

"Well, have a nice day, ma'am."

Watching Erica leave the restaurant with a smile, Exia looked at Kusanagi Godou: "Kusanagi-san, won't you catch up?"

"She and I are not friends. We just happened to meet each other on the way to have breakfast. I am also staying in this hotel." Kusanagi Godou explained, "But the accommodation is only for today. After that, I was ready to go back to Japan. But in the end, I didn’t return anything my grandfather asked me to return, and it was just a wasted trip... Why did I come to Italy?”

"Just think of it as increasing your knowledge. Traveling abroad alone at your age is not bad as a personal experience, right?"

"That's what you said... Sigh~~ I really have to encounter something every time I go abroad."

Kusanagi Godou said as he took out a package from his backpack: "How should I explain this to my grandfather in the future?"

"Is that what your grandfather asked you to return?" Li Sushang asked curiously, "Is it a square box?"

"Su Shang, this is his secret, there is no need -"

"No, it's okay."

Interrupting Alexia's attempt to dissuade her, Kusanagi Godou said with a smile: "Erica and Ms. Luculazia both said it was a very important thing, but in my opinion, it is just an ordinary stone slab. .”

As Kusanagi Godou spoke, he opened the black cloth on the outside of the package. What was exposed inside was a thick stone slab with a relief carved with a somewhat rough technique - a half-clothed man chained. Tethered to a mountain.

"...Prometheus?"

"Eh? Can you tell?" Kusanagi Godou was a little surprised by Alexia's words.

"After all, it is a famous passage in Greek mythology. Although the carving on this stone slab is a bit blurry, at least I can still see what it is trying to express - I'm sorry, can I touch it?"

"Okay, please."

Without any suspicion, Kusanagi Godou handed the slate in his hand to Exia. Although it was only the first time for the two of them to meet, it was probably because Toaxia's words and deeds were very gentle. Kusanagi Godou didn't think that he had any ulterior motives, so he met someone who spoke Japanese so well in a foreign country. As a person, he is quite lucky.

Then there was his intuition. Kusanagi Godou's intuition was quite accurate - the person in front of him who was probably only a few years older than him was not a bad person.

"Thanks."

(Miss Love Song.)

(Understand~~~)

While receiving the slate from Kusanagi Godou, Exia turned her attention to the Sajo Aika within her body, and the Sajou Aika immediately began to analyze the situation of the slate through the power of the Great Holy Grail.

(The material itself is nothing special...Prometheus, theft...this weak divinity...well, okay, I roughly understand it.)

So fast?

(It is already too slow for the Great Holy Grail - let me tell you the result directly. Prince, the stone slab in your hand has no special characteristics. What is special about it is the power given to it. Prome Hughes, the mythical [Fire Stealer], the power on this stone slab is the embodiment of this myth and legend.)

(If I am thinking correctly, it should have the effect of stealing the power of gods to a certain extent.)

32.We can’t afford to lose

A magical tool that steals the power of the gods.

This is the true face of this stone slab.

(However, having said that, with the capacity of this stone slab, only a small part can be stolen. It may be great for magicians, but it should not have much impact on the God of Disobedience. .By the way, I am already constructing the related spells. Prince, you can look forward to it~~~)

(As expected of Miss Love Song...)

Just by looking at the slate, you can use the ability of this slate as a prototype to construct a magic with the same or even stronger effect from scratch. Even though they had been together for almost two years, Alexia was still so surprised by Shajo Aige's talent that she was speechless.

She is truly an unparalleled [Witch] in terms of magic.

"Okay, I'll give it back to you."

Returning the slate to Kusanagi Godou, Exia smiled and said, "Thank you, Kusanagi-san."

"You're welcome. Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll see you again when you have the chance."

"See you."

After waving his hand, Kusanagi Godou stood up and left the table.

The atmosphere at the dinner table returned to the atmosphere of just Aixia and Li Sushang.

Li Sushang sighed with some regret, and said, "Uncle Junior Master, why don't you touch that stone slab for me?"

"It's not a big deal. If you want, I can rub a piece out for you now?" A little ice crystal condensed on Aixia's fingertips, but before he could rub out the ice-made stone slab, Li Sushang shook his head. .

"Forget it, forget it, I don't want to hold a piece of ice so early in the morning. Ice bricks are different from slates, right? - And then, Junior Uncle, are you serious?"

Li Sushang asked seriously.
