A Salute to the Birth of a King / A Terrifying Change, Authority, Athena

The moment Arthur closed his eyes, the air around him, as well as the ground, plants, and trees below, began to radiate a golden light. That sacred power of light caused Perseus's pupils to constrict, and he subconsciously recalled the scene from just now.

"At this moment, with the Shemesh's Blessing, unleash this arrow—an arrow that will surely kill and hit its mark!"

Without a second thought, Perseus raised his longbow and fired an arrow at Arthur.

In the background, a 480-degree halo of seven colors appeared, and an arrow nocked on a bowstring shot out, wreathed in silvery light, like a shooting star.

One divides into two, two gives rise to four, four transforms into eight, eight derives into sixteen.

Sixteen arrows rained down on the transparent white light barrier in front of Arthur.

'Boom--!'

There was no sound of metal clashing, nor any sparks flying, but rather a deafening sound like a hand grenade exploding.

The arrow, imbued with immense divine power, was like a compressed missile; its explosive force created concentric rings of wind, forming a tornado-like wall of air that nearly struck Arthur.

The wind barrier lasted for a long time before dissipating.

Arthur, however, remained unharmed while trapped within the wind barrier.

Avalon's absolute defense is so strong that even the Authority of a "Heretic God" cannot break through it.

'Whoosh!'

'Swish!'

'Shuashua--'

During this time, Arthur and "Don Starion" were already surrounded by a large golden glow.

The Holy Lance in his hand, with the halo of light encasing its shaft, was fully charged, gleaming with dazzling golden light, as if he were holding a golden pillar of light.

"The Seven Seals are lifted, Rhongomyniad--"

"Hiss--"

The transparent white light shield enveloping his entire body slowly disappeared, and "Don Starion" beneath Arthur let out a shout, its four hooves leaving the ground as it galloped toward Perseus.

At Arthur's shout, a dazzling golden spear thrust straight toward Perseus.

"At this moment, with the Shemesh's Blessing, I unleash this arrow—an arrow that will surely kill and hit its mark!" Looking at the approaching golden spear, Perseus's face was solemn. He raised his golden longbow, drew an arrow, and pulled it to its full draw, repeating the Word of Power once more.

But unlike the previous two times, this time, before the arrow was even fired, a layer of silver light formed by intense divine power covered it.

'Call out--'

The moment Perseus released his fingers, a sonic boom no less powerful than that of the '200 Million Volt Thunder Spear's erupted, and the 'Meteor' distorted the atmosphere as it shot toward the oncoming golden spear.

The 'meteor' was several times larger than the golden spear, but at the moment of their collision, the 'meteor' formed by the arrow actually blocked the straight-piercing golden spear.

'Click--'

The stalemate didn't last long; the y-colored light gradually dimmed, revealing the arrows hidden within.

Without the blessing of divine power, the arrow instantly broke with a snapping sound.

In an instant, Perseus's expression changed drastically.

'Boom--'

The golden spear shattered the 'meteor' and thrust forward at incredible speed, its dazzling golden light completely engulfing Perseus and his winged Pegasus.

High above the island, a golden meteor, as if falling from the sky, shot towards the island's largest volcano.

Before long, a deafening sound resounded through the sky.

A massive beam of light shot into the sky.

'Boom--!'

The entire island began to shake violently, and the powerful earthquake caused the seawater outside the island to churn, with wave after wave crashing against it.

The golden pillar of light took a long time to dissipate, but the prominent volcano on the island had already been leveled.

"Call--"

Standing on the crumbling earth, "East Starion" beneath Arthur's legs had vanished.

Perseus was no longer in front of him, but there was no system notification in his mind, which meant that Perseus was not dead.

'Swish--'

With that thought, the Holy Lance in Arthur's hand instantly transformed into a radiant light, coalescing into the Excalibur.

His Observation Haki spread out, quickly reaching Suji Island.

Finally, in a forest, they sensed that weak aura.

'Call out--'

Without a word, Arthur transformed into a bolt of Inazuma and vanished from the spot.

At this moment, in the forest.

A seven-colored halo appeared out of thin air and transformed into the figure of Perseus.

He knelt on one knee, his disheveled clothes and burns had healed, but his divine power and aura were weaker than ever before.

"I never expected to be forced to this point. This kind of thing has never happened even in the age of mythology!" Perseus said through gritted teeth. "But this isn't over yet. Let's find the key to this barrier and get out of here first."

"Young man, our battle is not over yet."

"It's not over yet!" A familiar voice reached Perseus's ears, and an Inazuma appeared in front of him, transforming into Arthur's figure.

"Seeing you are even weaker than me puts my mind at ease." A gentle smile appeared on Arthur's slightly pale face as he said, "As agreed, I have come to bathe in your divine blood!"

"God, please fall!"

"Heaven and earth are in discord, the star of creation--".

Chapter 330 Offering a Salute to the King's Birth

"Heaven and earth diverged, the star of creation--"

He raised Excalibur high, and the surrounding scenery gradually distorted. The magnificent golden sword, like a mirage, twisted into three tightly connected cylinders, forming a bizarre 'sword' that spiraled around him. A powerful storm of Mana burst forth from the three cylinders.

"Wake up, EA! The stage for you is ready! Enyma-elish--~"

With a shout, Arthur raised his Ea 'Ea' and swung it down at Perseus, whose eyes were wide open.

In an instant, the three cylinders began to rotate rapidly.

A fierce wind, capable of disrupting spacetime, surges forth and spreads.

Heaven and earth wept, the sea churned.

The entire island was shaking violently, and swirling gusts of wind, carrying crimson light, erupted from somewhere in the dense forest.

Wherever it passed, flowers, grass, and trees turned to dust.

The entire forest is beginning to crumble at a visible speed.

A gap appeared in the sky, filling the air with an apocalyptic atmosphere.

A fault line appeared in the ocean, and the surging seawater seemed to be being frantically drunk by a thirsty glutton, causing the water level to gradually drop.

The island was fractured, mountains collapsed and the earth cracked, and deep ravines spread out.

The dragon-slaying hero, the 'Steel Hero God' Perseus, was slowly reduced to dust amidst the fierce winds of the time-space rift. His divine body, which could only be harmed by Forbidden Spells or Divine Artifacts, was transformed into dust, and his brilliant golden blood splattered onto the boy wielding the eerie 'sword'.

A human being who challenges the gods and, in an almost impossible miracle, successfully slays the 'Heretic God' and is bathed in divine blood, the one who achieves this feat will have Magecraft societies around the world bow down to him; he is the earthly God Slayer —Demon King Campione.

With the Reality Marble completely collapsing, Arthur, having exhausted his Mana, felt dizzy and mentally exhausted like never before, and uncontrollably fainted.

The moment he returned to reality and fell into a coma.

The divine blood within him seemed to be drawn in by a magnet, seeping into his body.

Arthur, who had been pale, not only regained a rosy complexion, but his skin also turned bright red.

Suddenly, one... two, no, three powerful forces surged within his body, beginning to sweep through all the meridians and cells.

These three forces are the system's enhancement, the power of the 'Heretic God,' and Pandora's reincarnation ritual.

In a daze, Arthur felt as if he had entered a dream.

He felt a slender hand stroking his body, a sensation so real that it made Arthur's eyelids twitch slightly.

"Oh my... you're awake already?!" A light and melodious female voice slowly entered his ears, and Arthur slowly opened his eyes.

Suddenly, a delicate and lovely face, along with purple twin tails, came into view.

This is a petite little girl wearing a white dress.

This is a petite little girl wearing a white dress.

"Nice to meet you! Hello, my child!" The girl smiled and waved to Arthur, greeting him.

"Who are you?" Arthur asked, feigning confusion.

In reality, the moment he woke up, he already understood his situation and the identity of the girl in front of him.

Pandora the deity who oversees the reincarnation rituals of God Slayer.

"Mommy's name is Pandora!" Pandora said playfully, "She's the goddess who bestows both all calamities and a glimmer of hope."

Arthur sat up, clutching his head, continuing his acting, and muttered, "I remember fighting Perseus, so why am I here?"

"Mommy can explain this to you..." Upon hearing this, Pandora's tone immediately became joyful, and she exclaimed excitedly, "You successfully killed the legendary dragon-slaying hero 'Perseus'! Mommy has already performed the reincarnation ritual for you. From now on, you are a true God Slayer, the earthly Demon King of mankind!"

"Is that so..." Arthur looked down at his hands, a slight smile playing on his lips. "It really wasn't easy."

· ······Requesting flowers·· ····

"Yes, yes... there's something wrong with your constitution." Pandora nodded repeatedly, her cute face puffing out slightly, and tilted her head in confusion as she said, "Your body possesses an incredibly frightening Immunity, even more terrifying than the Immunity of a god -True Magic God Slayer. Petrification and curses seem to be nullified. I almost thought that the reincarnation ritual wouldn't work on you either."

"Fortunately, the ritual was ultimately successful. This is probably because this Immunity only Immunity negative states, not Immunity ones."

"It's good that it was completed..." Arthur's smile faded slightly, then he let out a breath and said in a relaxed tone.

I almost forgot!

He also has an inherent skill, the system-rewarded 'Immunity)'.

Fortunately, this Immunity) did not reject the reincarnation ritual; otherwise, Arthur would have likely wasted all his efforts.

"Uh-huh..."

Suddenly, Arthur felt a strong wave of dizziness, which made him groan.

"Oh dear... it seems it's time." Pandora said with a smile, as if she were used to it. "After returning to reality, enjoy your new body. Although you'll probably forget everything here once you're back, I hope you won't forget your mother!"

The moment he finished speaking, Arthur felt everything go black and lost consciousness again.

When Arthur woke up, he wasn't on the rooftop of the building where he had met Perseus, but in a luxurious room, lying on a soft Siss bed.

The moment I opened my eyes, a face with a bright, cheerful smile came into view.

"You're easy to beat up like that, Doni." Arthur's pupils contracted, and he almost instinctively attacked that face.

After regaining his senses, he said helplessly.

"Hehe... Congratulations on becoming one of my kind, Arthur!" Salvatore Doni straightened up, put his hands behind his head, and laughed heartlessly, "Great, you've become one of my kind too! Now I can finally experience your Swordsmanship in its entirety! Before, your body was as weak as a sheep, and I didn't get to enjoy fighting you at all!"

Chapter 331 Terrifying Changes, Authority, Athena

"Where is this?" Arthur ignored Salvatore Doni's words, sat up, and looked around before asking.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Please allow me to introduce myself... My name is Andre Rivera, a confidant of Thunder Lord. You may call me Andre." Before Salvatore Doni could reply, a mature, steady, and respectful voice reached his ears. A figure leaning against the doorway slowly approached, raised his right fist to his heart, and bowed slightly, saying, "This is a hotel in Naples Garibaldi Square! I apologize for any inconvenience caused!"

"No need for that, thank you for your trouble," Arthur said with a faint smile, shaking his head.

"Thank you for your understanding!" Andre Rivera bowed again, but felt a slight sense of relief.
