The Paladin on the Infinite Tour

"My dear friend, you are preparing to eat alone."

Salbatorre put his hand on the box on his body, as if he wanted to draw his sword and grab it at any time.

But he soon put his hand down.

"Oh~~~Forget it, I won't snatch it from you. It's first come, first served. It's really wrong to snatch someone's prey. I'll give it to you this time."

"That's good."

"No, Your Majesty, please don't let your guard down and believe his words." Andre stared at his scumbag friend with a wary expression, "That's what he said, but he must be thinking in his heart. When the God appears, he forcibly intervenes in your battle, and then forcibly takes away the battle that belongs to you - he has already done this once."

Alexia: "..."

Salbatore: "Tsk, Andre, you are not interesting enough. How could you leak my confidential plan?"

(So ​​you are really planning to do this!)

Even though he already knew that Salbatorre was a hopeless fool, Exia was somewhat impressed by his willfulness to this extent.

"Then how about each of us depending on our abilities?" Salbatorre continued to suggest, "How about the two of us besieging the God of Disobedience and see who can kill the other first? In this way, my dear friend, you won't have any complaints. Alright?"

"Why should I engage in such a boring competition with you? There is a high probability that you will not gain power, right? I don't think there will be any disobedient god who would appear in front of two god-killers stupidly."

"Hi~~~ Yes. So what should I do? If I can't catch the prey, won't the gap between me and my best friend be getting wider and wider?"

I have said it so many times, you and I are not close friends - Ixia doesn’t want to say this anymore.

"Then Mr. Andre, Liliana. Now that this idiot has been found, I will take my leave first. Let's talk later if we have a chance."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty."

"I'm really sorry for asking you to trouble yourself for him, Your Majesty. I will come to visit you later with a gift to thank you."

Liliana and Andre said one after another.

Knowing that it was useless to refuse, Ixia didn't say much, waved her hand and turned around to leave.

However, the moment he turned around——

(Lord Prince, look at the roof of the building on your left.)

The voice of Shajo's love song suddenly sounded in Alexia's heart.

(What's wrong? Miss Aige.)

(Someone is watching you, and... it's probably a [fish].)

fish?

Alexia raised his head and looked in the direction that Shajo Aige said - with his eyesight, he could clearly see that on the roof of the tall building, there was a petite figure standing there, his eyes seemed to be looking at him direction.

"Buzz..."

The Gorgon Stone that had been put into his pocket trembled slightly.

Alexia squeezed it hard to stop the vibration, and then raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

(Indeed, it is a [big fish].)

(I didn’t expect it to come so quickly...the Earth Mother Goddess has her eye on the Gorgon Stone.)

75. Disobey Athena

The time after Li Sushang left unexpectedly passed quickly.

Alexia, who originally just wanted to go out for a walk to kill time, found that the sky had completely darkened when she came to her senses. After finding a random place to finish dinner, Exia did not go home, but continued to wander around Milan.

Anyway, he will be the only one at home when he gets back, so he might as well walk around outside.

Time passed quickly while Alexia was walking aimlessly. It was not until the personal terminal in her trouser pocket rang that Alexia stopped.

"Huh? Is it Su Shang?"

After taking a look at the name of the sender, Ixia immediately clicked on the letter sent to herself.

[We've got off the plane, little uncle. We met Lu Yinghua, who had been to our place before. He had just finished taking a shower and was preparing to go to Lushan Mountain after dawn. I have a safe journey here. Miss Erica has helped me a lot, so I can rest assured. 】

There wasn't much content, just a word of safety to Ixia.

Alexia smiled at the corner of her mouth: "[Well, have a good rest, contact me immediately if anything goes wrong, don't do it alone] - Is that okay? I just realized now that I didn't know Have you ever walked to the ruins of Sforzesco Castle?"

Putting away the personal terminal, Exia glanced around.

The Sforzesco Castle that originally stood here has long since disappeared, leaving only a ruin that cannot even be called a broken wall.

"I hadn't noticed before, but this place was really completely destroyed. That guy Salbatore didn't know how to restrain himself."

"I do think that the prince must also bear a little responsibility."

Appearing quietly next to Alexia, Shajo Aige smiled and said: "In addition, Mr. Prince, you did not come here accidentally. You obviously delayed the time until now, and then came slowly and straightly. Come here."

"Exposed?"

Alexia chuckled.

Of course, he never thought of hiding Shajo Aige from her. For this unmarried lover with whom he truly lived day and night, it was impossible to hide this little thought from her.

"But there's nothing we can do about it. Only at this time will Milan become a little quieter. After almost everyone has fallen asleep, even if a battle breaks out here, the commotion will be minimal, right?"

Because of the previous collapse, it was impossible for anyone to be around Sforzesco Castle, let alone it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, almost eleven o'clock.

Although it can't be said to be completely silent, the surrounding area is certainly deserted.

"So......"

Taking out the Gorgon Stone from her pocket, Ixia raised it high and looked at the moon - the snake hair wrapped around the face seemed to be alive now, bit by bit. The dots were squirming and shaking, and even the face seemed to be alive, and the eyes were emitting a strange light.

Throwing the Gorgon Stone a few times, Exia said loudly to the seemingly empty ruins of the castle: "Aren't you planning to come out now? If you continue to hide, I will use this stone." But throw it into the Mediterranean Sea, my goddess."

"..."

There was no sound in the silent night, as if there was really no one around.

But whether it was Sajo Aige or Exia's perception, both of them were sure that there was indeed a person behind them, and that person had been following them since the afternoon. For over an hour, the other party had not left his side for even a second - leaving the Gorgon Stone to be precise.

The Gorgon Stone exudes a certain degree of spell power all the time, and that spell power is very conspicuous to the Godslayer. For example, Salbatorre noticed it immediately.

And this magical tool can attract the ancient Earth Mother Goddess.

"Huh~~~~!"

The cool night wind blew through the ruins.

Owls suddenly appeared in the sky one after another, dropping a large number of feathers.

It was like the feeling of something passing through the body suddenly occupied Alexia's sharp five senses. The already dark sky suddenly became darker, as if the light of the moon was blocked, and everything in the field of vision seemed to be dark. Cast a layer of darkness.

"clatter......"

Footsteps fell in front of Exia.

I don't know when it was, but there was no one in front of me, but now a conspicuous figure appeared.

"Oh, has it finally appeared?" Alexia smiled, "Although I have seen it from a distance before, but seeing it at such a close distance... really surprised me. , is it possible that you are a god with a legend of a girl’s incarnation like Veleslana?”

"My little goddess."

What appeared in front of Alexia was a little girl.

Wearing a somewhat cheap-looking sweater, a plaid miniskirt and black knee-high socks, she wore a blue woolen hat on her silver hair. I don't know if the top of the hat was the original shape of the hat, but it looked a little bit... Like cat ears.

Judging from her appearance, she should be around thirteen or fourteen years old. She looks very cute, a little cuter than the cutest Gracie and Bronya in the Exia family. But unlike her cute appearance, there was no emotion on her face and she was very indifferent.

The snake-like purple eyes looked directly at the Gorgon Stone in Exia's hand, and the petite body exuded a magical power that could not be ignored.

"Huh?"

Hearing Exia's conversation, the girl god seemed to have some interest: "Are you acquainted with the military god of the East, God Killer?"

"After all, the only god I killed was him."

"Kill... Hahaha, it's really a surprising statement. He is obviously a warrior who is equivalent to my child, but he killed the military god and became my old enemy. Destiny is still there It’s really fun.”

child?

Alexia frowned: "...Are you doing this too? There was a Loli goddess named Pandora who said I was her child before, and now there is another one - is it possible for you Are all goddesses mothers who like to recognize their children everywhere and are overflowing with motherly love in their hearts?"

"Oh? Can you still retain the memory of that woman after returning from the realm of immortality? It seems that you also have something unique. However, the divine son of Epimetheus, my current concubine is a disobedient one. If If you want to call me the Mother Goddess, you need to get the Gorgon Stone in your hand."

The girl god said coldly.

At the same time, a snake-like shadow quickly gathered in her hand, eventually forming a giant scythe larger than her entire body.

"I don't think you will offer the Gorgon Stone, so let's start here. The child who fell into the Demon King's concubine."

"My name is Athena. If you don't follow Athena, please keep this name in your heart."

76. Are you here to steal someone’s head?

——Athena.

The unexpected god's name surprised both Exia and Shajo Aige.

If Veleslana is a [partial] god with limited popularity and is only well-known locally or among believers, then Athena enjoys a very high reputation all over the world, even if she only knows a little about it. A well-known goddess that no one in mythology knows about.

She is the patron saint of Athens, the Greek goddess of wisdom, war and art, the daughter of Zeus, and is regarded as the three goddesses on Mount Olympus along with Artemis and Hestia.

And at the same time, she is also a goddess with legends about protecting heroes. The famous Greek hero Perseus killed the succubus Medusa with her help, and Hercules also received a lot of help from her... ..Looking at the classification of heroic spirits and gods, Athena is a goddess of order and goodness.

Such Athena actually became the God of Disobedience?

(It’s really a situation where I can’t laugh no matter what. The goddess Athena, even in my world, she is undoubtedly a goddess at the level of the main god. She is a powerful enemy—— That is to say, the Athena in front of us now is probably not a perfect body, Prince.)

(...The Gorgon Stone?)

According to Erica, the Gorgon Stone is a sign that can guide many goddesses to the Mother Earth. To put it bluntly, this is a prop that can make the [incomplete] goddess become the [Mother Goddess of Disobedience].

After taking a look at Athena, who was holding a giant scythe and ready to fight with her at any time, Exia began to look at her body attentively.

(The power of the curse is quite impressive, both in terms of quality and quantity. It is indeed a god, but... far less than Mercato and Veleslana?)

There is also a gap between the gods of disobedience. This is a confirmed thing. After all, not every god is a god of war or a god of war. But even so, there shouldn't be such a cliff-like gap. In Alexia's opinion, the power contained in Athena is only one-third of that of Mercato and Veleslana at most. Two looks.

Moreover, this is just an intuition of Axia - Athena has a feeling of emptiness, as if something is missing.

It's like an intact sculpture that is missing an arm. Although this does not make the sculpture lose its value, it may add new value and become a brand new sculpture. But if a piece is missing, it will never be the original sculpture.

The current Athena gives Alexia such a feeling.

"…You want this?"

Exia glanced at the Gorgon Stone in her hand, and then directly did something that surprised both Sajo Aige and Athena - he threw the Gorgon Stone directly at Athena!

"Snapped!"

Reaching out to catch the divine tool that she had always wanted, Athena frowned tightly and looked at Exia in confusion: "What do you mean, God Killer? Take the initiative to return the [Snake] to My concubine...this is not the behavior a god-killing demon king should behave."

"No, if it were other God-killers, they would probably do the same thing as me." Exia smiled, "If I want to take away power from you, the prerequisite is [a fair and just battle between both sides] 】. You are obviously not a complete form. Even if I kill you as a child, I may not get the power, which is just a waste of energy. In this case, it is better to let you become a complete form. "

"...I see, the children of fools are still fools, ignorant and arrogant."

Putting away the giant scythe and holding the Gorgon Stone in both hands, Athena showed a cold smile: "But I will not thank you, God Killer. Even if you return the [Snake] to me , as long as you are my old enemy, I will not report anything to you."

"It doesn't matter. After I kill you, the power I get from you will be the best reward for me."

"Hey~~~ You have a chance to win, God Killer. Being too arrogant is not a good thing."

"But to me, it doesn't matter whether you return to your full body or not - I don't think I will lose to you."

Exia has an absolute trump card.

Even if some of the incarnations are not suitable for one-on-one incarnations, the rest of the incarnations are enough to defeat Athena in Exia's opinion. Even if he is unreasonable and directly uses the incarnation of [Messiah], then Athens In front of him, Na was no different from an ordinary girl.

The sword of words and spirits that can sever the godhead is the confidence that he can fight against any enemy.

"Also, if possible, can you change the place?"

"Why?"

"It doesn't feel right here." Alexia pointed to the lights of Milan not far away that had not all been extinguished. "If you were not Athena, but an ordinary goddess, then I would not have such a request. But If the opponent is a powerful goddess like you, even if I can defeat you, I dare not say that it will not have a big impact on this city. For now, I have received some care from the people here - how about going to the Mediterranean?"

Alexia's words made Athena silent for a while, and then the goddess smiled slightly: "It's rare to meet such a conscientious God-killer. It's really rare. Anyway, I also think that fighting you at this moment is not the best idea. I am physically and mentally injured. The part that is the god of war identifies you as my enemy and is eager to fight you, but the part that is the goddess of wisdom gives warnings and constantly reminds me that you are in danger. If I attack you casually, I may There will be a painful counterattack.”

(...Intuition is really good.)
